Spoilers for 'MacGyver' Season 4 Episode 13 'Save + The + Dam + World'

Well, it looks like that's a wrap on 'MacGyver' Season 4. Though the season was scheduled to run for 22 episodes and later shortened to 20, it appears Episode 13 might be the end of the season.

That's just as well because 'Save + The + Dam + World' was one epic conclusion featuring the heartbreaking death of beloved season villain Gwendolyn Hayes (Jeri Ryan), aunt of Angus "Mac" MacGyver (Lucas Till) and Codex leader. A number of fans have taken to Twitter to discuss the episode and here's what they've been saying.

One fan tweeted, "I love the show but I feel the choice to shorten the season really hurt tonight's episode, it felt rushed & more of a way out of season 4's Codex plot.
+ don't get me started on not addressing Riley's feelings for Mac! I want Mac and Riley together! #MacRiley Just being honest." For fans who similarly feel that the Codex plot could have received more attention, there's still a chance that we'll see the rest of Codex's story whenever the show returns.

After all, even with Gwen dead, the true leadership of Codex is still out there somewhere.

Other fans were more positive about the episode with one fan writing, "Love it!! So glad Mac is still there making the world a better place, the right way."

Another fan wrote, "So much action I was on the edge of my seat." Yet another fan said that "Without even planning it, this episode was the perfect season finale for season 4 of Macgyver!"

"This episode had everything," one fan commented. "Heartache. Suspense. Edge of your seat action. It has all come full circle, wrapping the season up nicely."

"Sorry to see Scarlett and Auntie Gwen gone but if we’ve learned anything from watching #MacGyver never say never 🤷‍♀️," another fan wrote. "Great finale and look forward to more great #mac storylines in the Fall 😎."

'MacGyver' Season 4 Episode 13 aired on CBS on May 8 at 8 pm ET.
