What might MacGyver and geek!Sam need to work on together?
She's an astrophysicist, of course, and seems to be a bit of an engineer, and he's... well, done a lot of things. He seems to know stuff about chemistry, physics, nuclear physics... he helped to dismantle nuclear weapons, once lived in an observatory (verrrrry briefly, at the very start)... also knows stuff about forestry, conservation, and - well, pretty much anything.
That was probably a massive display of my ignorance on such subjects, but Wikipedia is only so helpful.

Evil terrorist group has hijacked a satellite, added a laser beam, and is planning to blow up "x" city? Mac and Sam have to hijack it back? (I don't know where that came from)
Something with a plane or a rocket? Maybe an experimental plane (F-302 like?) that isn't working right?
A telescope found evidence of alien life and Mac needs help finding whether it's real?
