- We hit 'em tonight.

Remember, two
guards at the rear.

One in the head,
one in the chest.

When we get inside,
you grab the statue

and I will light that place
up so there are no survivors.

Understood?

Understood?

Hey, not bad for
a former TV star

whose best days are behind him.

Am I right?

Oh, that's what Quentin does.

He sees things in actors
that other directors don't.

Oh, and I just
hope I get his job.

- You're Neal Russell!
- You're damn right I am.

I don't know if I'm
allowed to say this,

but I'm a huge fan!

- Summer, I am gonna
stop you right there.

Today, you are allowed
to say anything you want.

Now, I know my agency,

they like their assistants
to be all buttoned-up,

but you're with me
now, so no filters.

In fact, tell me more.

- Uh, okay.

Oh.

Uh, well, I love you
in "Cosmic Attraction."

- But my, uh, ex, um,
she loves "Duplication."

- Oh.

Oh, the one where I
play that scientist

who duplicates his wife

and then the clone falls
in love with my brother?

- Yeah, your twin brother!
- Oh.

- She says the only thing
better than Neal Russell

is two Neal Russells.

- Oh, I like this woman.
She's an ex, you say?

- Yeah.
- I am sorry.

- Oh.

- You know, I certainly
shed my fair share of tears

over lost love, but as they say,

"To weep is to make less
the depth of grief."

Summer, can I let you
in on a little secret?

Every day we wake up,

there is an adventure to be had.

Some are fun, some are scary,
and some are flat-out stupid.

But no
matter how you slice it,

life is meant to be lived.

- Good morning, everyone.

I'm sure you've noticed that
we are back up and running.

What you may not know is
this is the man responsible:

Tom Westfall.

He's a senior official

at the Pentagon's
Defense Innovation Unit.

He's been working
behind the scenes

to get Quantum Leap
back on its feet.

I know I speak for everyone,
Tom, when I say thank you.

You saved us from dark days.

- Good morning.

I just want to start by saying

how excited I am
to be joining you.

This is a truly
historic program.

It's the stuff
dreams are made of.

Short-term, my job is

to oversee an audit
of the operation.

I know, I know.

But this is the government.

We can't change the world
without some paperwork.

Now long-term, my
goal is to make sure

no one ever shuts us down again.

And to be clear, that
is what's at stake.

Now, the way we keep
that from happening

is we show everyone in
Washington how important,

how noble, and how inspiring
Quantum Leap truly is.

Okay, speech over.
Let's go to work.

Ian, can I borrow you a sec?
- Yeah, sure.

- Can you talk me through
these periodic energy spikes?

- Oh, yeah. Okay.

Um, so basically,
every time Ben leaps,

we have to search for
and then lock onto

his quantum signature,

and that takes an
enormous amount of energy.

I take it our light
bill is expensive?

- In the Las Vegas range.
- Oof.

- Look, I can spin that

as the cost of
leave-no-man-behind mission,

but would you mind looking
into the internals for me?

These spikes are much bigger
than they were three years ago.

- They are?

- It's "The Tonight Show"?

We'll come on down.

- I cannot believe that you get
to hang out with Neal Russell.

I don't know.

Um, do you mind if I?

Yeah, I know it's crazy.

- And he's even cooler
than we imagined.

You missed some of
the craziest stories

from his first season of
"Awful Good Together."

- Okay, I'm gonna need
a full debrief later.

But first, we should probably
figure out why you're here.

Yeah.

You think it has something
to do with the accident?

- It sure does. It
is April 4th, 2000.

- That's the day he disappeared.

- Okay, in the
original timeline,

Neal was in town to appear
on "The Tonight Show,"

but he canceled last-minute.

He was last seen
sailing to Catalina,

and his boat was found
adrift the next day.

- And a week later, his
body washed up on shore.

We gotta keep him from
getting on that boat.

- Actually, Ziggy says

you're here to get him
to "The Tonight Show."

Apparently, that was the real
Summer Walsh's assignment,

but she clearly failed to do so.

- "The Tonight Show"?

There has to be more
to this than that.

- Summer, would you mind
getting a shot of all of us?

- Oh, yeah. Of course.

- Everybody smile.

Oh, I love spending
quality time with the fans.

Now, Pete said you were gonna
bring some of my old mail.

- Uh, Pete is Neal's
agent, your boss.

- Yes, that's right. Um...

here we go, I'm sorry.

Uh, these letters to CR
Lambert have all been returned.

- Yeah, it must
be an old address.

Look, I'm gonna get
another espresso.

Do you mind... do
you want anything?

- No, I'm okay. Thank you.

Do we know when
Summer lost Neal?

- Uh, well, he was set to
appear on the show at 5:00 p.m.

But I have Summer's
expenses for the day.

She bought gas to pick
up Neal from the airport

and bring him here,
he paid for breakfast.

And that's it.

- That's it? That
means I lose him soon.

- Maybe he's in the bathroom?
- Yup.

- If we lose him and
he gets on that boat,

he's gonna die, Ben.

- Damn.

He's in the wind.

- Neal!

Neal?

Neal!

I lost Neal Russell!
Who loses Neal Russell?

- Okay, all right. Uh,
let's think this through.

So one minute, Neal's all
"Summer, you're the best,"

and the next, he bolts.

- His mail... he was reading it
in the café before he vanished.

- Ben, that one. He
must've just opened it.

- Mm-hmm.

Okay, well, whatever was
in it is no longer there.

Laura Evans, 3512 Clayton Drive,

Los Angeles...
- Ben!

Laura Evans!

Oh! Yeah.

You mean his co-star from
"Awful Good Together."

- Yeah, but more importantly,
Laura Evans was his ex-wife.

- Oh.

- Ben, she's getting married
in her backyard today.

- Today?

That's why Neal was
in such a hurry.

- We need to find him now.
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Okay. Oh, hey!

Excuse me, excuse me!

Can I get a ride
to the front gate?

- Well, I guess
there are a few perks

to bureaucratic oversight.

- I'm not sure everyone
feels the same way.

I think I may have blindsided
some people this morning.

- Come on.

Blindsided implies that
you're doing something wrong.

Everyone here wants what's
best for the program.

- How goes the leap?

- Neal Russell. I mean,
can you believe that?

I am having a hard time
not just staring at him.

- Relax. You said
that out loud.

- Yeah, well,

teenage me would've shouted
that from the rooftops,

so that's growth.

Well, hopefully grown-up you

can help Ben stop Neal
from stopping that wedding.

- You were watching.

Uh, okay.

What do you think
about your first leap?

- What I think of the leap
or what I think of Ben?

Honestly, I haven't seen
enough to have an opinion.

His hologram, though,

she is smart, resourceful...
- Mm.

- Attractive.

To be honest,

it's hard not to stare
at her the entire time.

- I, uh, see what you did there.

Come on, come on.

Rachel, please pick up.

Hi.

Hi, honey.

Yeah, no. Everything...
everything is fine.

I've never called
you from work before?

Well, I just... I, um, I
had a couple of hours free

and I wanted to see if maybe
you could slip away for lunch?

- Hi.
- Hey.

- How'd you get by?

- Oh, agency IDs are like
golden tickets in this town.

I remember that from Neal's
movie, "Public Safety."

- Wait, "Public Safety."

Didn't we watch that during
the Neal Russell marathon...

The flu weekend of 2020?

- I get queasy just
thinking about it.

- Oh, tell me about it.

I have never spent that much
time on a bathroom floor.

Though I do remember someone

staying with me long
after he did feel better.

- Oh, you know, I just have
a thing for lying on tile.

- Uh, hey, well, I found out

why you have to get Neal
to "The Tonight Show."

So Ziggy says that despite
outward appearances,

Neal's star was
starting to wane.

- Neal's?

But he was the lead

of the biggest sitcom on TV.

I mean, his movies.

He gets recognized
everywhere he goes.

- Yeah, but that show
ended 15 years ago.

And if you noticed,

most of his fans are
of a certain age.

I mean, sure, after Neal died,

everyone said, "Oh,
he's a legend,"

but the truth is he
quietly sold his mansion

and moved back to
the East Coast.

- That's why he's
just "in town."

- Yeah. Oh, and those
letters to CR Lambert?

She was an
up-and-coming publicist

who clearly was not interested

in shocking life back
into Neal's career.

- Ah, no wonder
all the speculation

his accident was
actually a suicide.

- I mean, perfect
day, calm seas.

But Ziggy says none
of that happens

if we get him to the TV
show to promote his memoir.

If we do, the book's a hit and
Neal gets cast in a big movie.

So we get him to
Leno, everybody wins.

- Oh, he really is a good actor.

Here he is under all that stress

and he's nothing
but grace and charm.

- So I'm the asshole, huh?
- Yes!

- Yes, you are the asshole!
- Oh, I got it, I got it!

- That's it. You know
what? I'm calling the cops.

- Oh!
- I'm calling the cops!

- That's a classic Michael move.

No backbone.

He's running off to tell mother.

- What do I do?

- Uh, wait for an opening?

- Laura, please.
I'm begging you.

Give me another chance.
We'll start fresh.

- Neal, get up. Please!

- Look, I will do
anything you want, see?

I'll quit acting.
We'll get a dog.

We'll start a family.
- A family?

- What if there is no opening?

- You know, I really... I...

I thought it was a kind gesture
inviting you to my wedding,

but obviously, I made a mistake.

- Okay, can we at least agree
that you can't marry Michael?

I mean, he's a sidekick at best.

He's not a leading man!

- And what did being
a leading man get you?

A life of loneliness.

- That is why I'm here.

Working on my memoir,

I realized how empty my life is.

Help me. Help me fix that
before it's too late.

- Oh, she's marring
Michael Stevens,

their co-star on the show.

- Ben!

- And he's got a samurai sword!

- Neal, you son of a bitch!

- Whoa, hey! No
need for violence.

- Oh, great. Who are you?

Neal's 25-year-old
skanky girlfriend?

- What?

- Not surprising someone
as selfish as you

doesn't recognize Summer,
our agent's assistant.

- Oh, Summer. Sorry.

It's nice to put a face
with the name, you know?

I didn't...
- Out!

The two of you, out of
this house right now.

Neal, if you say one more
word, I swear to God,

I will never speak to you again.

Hush!

- Well, that went
over about as well

as the time I did
Shakespeare in the Park.

- Oh, when you played Puck?

No, that was just critics
looking to take someone who...

- Look, save the hope

for someone who
actually could use it.

The curtain's
dropped on this guy.

I don't wanna think,
I don't wanna talk.

Just tell Leno I
have my regrets,

so I'm going sailing.

- No! You can't do that!

- Why not?

- Uh, because, obviously,

Laura still loves you.

- She does?

- She does?
- Yes!

Didn't you see the way
she was looking at you?

- Yeah, kinda looked
like rage to me.

- Yeah, yes, but also,

rage can sometimes also be love.

In reverse.

What you need to
do is you need to

go on "The Tonight Show"
to promote your memoir

and then you need to declare
your undying love for her.

- No, that's a terrible idea.

Laura hates publicity.
She'd never forgive me.

But... but...

what she does like...

what she does love are
tender romantic gestures.

No, that is not the mission.

- And you are right. I
was quitting too soon.

But you never bail when
you've just found the one.

- Ben, you need to stop this
before it gets out of hand.

- Okay, put on your
seat belt, Summer,

because we're
winning Laura back!

- This is not the mission.

- I could get used to random,
surprised lunch dates.

Although I'd much rather have
you home before midnight.

- I, um, took the liberty
of ordering us the omakase.

- Oh, not having to make
another decision today

is so my kind of foreplay.

Ian.

Ian.

What's wrong?

I know all your smiles.

That's the
something-is-wrong smile.

- Um, Tom...

Tom asked me if I
could figure out a way

to make our technology
more energy-efficient,

so I was looking into our code

and I found something
seriously wrong

with the quantum processing chip

that your boss built for me.

- When we got back together,

we agreed that was
between you and him.

- I know.

- You needed someone to make you

the most powerful chip on Earth,

I introduced you to my boss.

That's the extent
of my involvement.

- I know, I know,
but the chip...

the chip is transmitting
Ziggy's code out of HQ,

presumably back to him.

- Okay, um, well...

let's not overreact, okay?

The good news is the most that
he can get is the AI, okay?

Unless you find Ben,

there's no way he'll
figure out that

Quantum Leap is
related to time travel.

Wait.

Did you find him?

Ian, did you find
Ben and not tell me?

- I just... I-I-I- I
didn't want your boss to...

to ask you about my work and
you to have to lie to him, so...

- So instead, you lied to me.

- No, you told me that
you wanted to be left out.

- Kept out of the deal, not...

don't you dare say
keeping a secret

from the person you
supposedly love isn't lying.

I can deal with
your savior complex.

Some days, it's even admirable.

But I told you I wouldn't
do secrets anymore.

- Rachel, Rachel, Rachel.

I'm sorry.

- You always are.

But you never change.

- Yeah, thanks, Charlie.
You're a good man.

Step one of my plan
to snap Laura out of

whatever spell she
is under: flowers.

- Mm.
- That was Charlie Carter.

He's Jeffrey Katzenberg's
number one floral artist.

Tulips are Laura's favorite,

so we're gonna fill
the car up with them.

Ah, she always thinks
I never listen to her.

I always listen. I just...

did what I wanted instead.

I guess that's what
you call selfish.

- You think?

- We all learn
from our mistakes.

Do we?

'Cause, uh, Ziggys says

every minute we go after Laura,
we are making things worse.

- You know, I once
helped a bounty hunter

and her boyfriend get
back together even though

other people thought
thatwas a mistake.

- No, I did not say
that was a mistake.

I said that wasn't the mission.

Thisis a mistake.

Music.

That was Carreras,

who's gonna meet
us at Laura's house

and serenade her
after I've broken up

this farce of wedding.

- Okay, see? Right here.

"Laura and Michael
still happily married

20 years later."

- How do you know you're
doing the right thing, Neal?

How do you know she's the one?

- Because I... I lost her.

I mean, it's strange. I...

I could spend hours telling you

all the things that
I love about Laura,

but I loved them
before and still,

I made decisions that
destroyed what we had.

It was like a part
of me was torn out.

I lost my other half.

And you're just drifting
through life, lost.

Does that make any sense?

More than you know.

You're doing the
right thing, Neal.

You're
fighting for love.

- Yeah.

All right, turn left up ahead
and find a place to park.

- What's here?

- Well, we got the flowers,
we got the opera legend.

There's just one
more thing to do:

steal my tuxedo.

Huh?

You said steal.

Why do you need
to steal a tuxedo?

- It is not atuxedo,
it is thetuxedo,

the one I wore when
I married Laura

on the show and in real life.

- And that's here?

- That is there.

- We were in DC
for the last leap,

but it was rough.

- Yeah, it sounded
rough for both of you.

- Yeah, well, at
least last time,

Ben was making decisions
in service of the leap,

but now?

I mean, come on.

Helping Neal win back
the woman that he lost?

- Yeah.

- What do you think I should do?

I mean, I can't just sit back
and let him ruin the leap.

He's going to get stuck
in the year 2000 forever.

- Hey. We're not there yet.

- Ziggy says this is not

getting him to
"The Tonight Show,"

not about how Ben does it.

And from what I've read,

Ben has a pretty
good track record

of knowing what to do.

- Yeah. He does.

- Then let him lead.
He's earned it.

Trust him.

And trust that if he has
really lost the plot...

He'll
know what to do.

Jeez.

- Here we go. Hot
off the presses.

- Well, more like
20-something years.

- "Awful Good"? That's
what he named his book?

- "Awful Good Together"
was the name of his sitcom.

- Instead of having
Ziggy give us clues

as to what makes Neal tick,

let's get it from
the man himself.

- You know,

we could always just have
Ziggy read the book for us.

- With all due respect,
this is a memoir.

And when it comes to memoirs,

sometimes, you have to
read between the lines.

- Oh, where did a nice girl
like you learn to pick a lock?

- Long story.

We need to hurry.
Someone could find us.

- And there I am.

- That's supposed to be you?

- Yeah, it's not great, but
there's something in the eyes.

- You okay?

- Yeah, yeah.
It's just like...

staring in the face
of your own mortality.

One, which honestly, they
never actually nailed,

but...

ugh, what is this
obsession with wax figures?

I mean, do we just yearn
to be around people that...

- The real thing's
always better, anyway.

Maybe we should just
grab the tuxedo and go.

Yeah.

Police! Open the door!

- Hey, Summer.

Remember what I said about
very day being an adventure?

Yeah.

Which kind is this?

The tabloid kind.

- Handcuffs.

Well, I, uh, didn't
see that coming.

Uh, Ziggy says by the
time Neal's released,

he misses the show, your
host gets fired from TAA,

and Neal still dies.

Terrific.

- Hey, look. We have been in
tighter spots before, okay?

We just need to use
what's available.

You're a Hollywood assistant.

You have the entire
town's resources

at your fingertips.

- Even better.

I've got Neal Russell.

Officer Jackson.

Have you ever seen
any of Neal's work?

- Why?

- He's got two
daughters, nine and 11.

Neal did some kid movies.

- The reason I ask is

the governor's daughter
just had a birthday

and Neal made a
special appearance.

I did?

- The governor doesn't
have a daughter, Ben.

- Just go with it.
- Okay.

- He did the voices of all
of her favorite characters.

- Checking credit card receipts.

- I played Agent Tom Hawk,
I did Captain Peter Hunt.

- "Coming Full Circus." He
rented it two weeks ago.

- Of course, the Ringmaster
from "Coming Full Circus."

How
could you forget?

You know, the one with the girl,

she runs away from home
and she joins the circus

and he eventually ends up

getting her parents
back together.

- Oh, it just gets
me here every time.

- If you could let us off
with a warning this time,

I am sure that
Neal would be happy

to do something like that for
you as a show of gratitude.

- You still got the costume?

- I didn't know Neal was

in a competitive barbershop
quartet in college.

- Didn't know Neal was
almost in the Peace Corps.

- I'd like to clarify
my earlier statement.

Read between the lines
for stuff that's relevant.

- Either you tell me
what's going on right now

or you're gonna have
to tell everyone.

Fine.

We've had a security breach.

- Magic, turn to page 116.

- What am I reading about?

- One of Neal's
early relationships.

- I asked you to check that chip

when I snuck you in
here to install it.

I told you to look
for that very thing.

- Jenn, you don't
think I know that?

I know, I know.

- Why are we only finding
out about the leak now?

- Well, because it only just
started after we found Ben.

It transmits data every
time that Ben leaps.

- She and Neal broke up.
She never acted again.

Why?

- So our choice are

we let the chip keep
hemorrhaging code

or we pull the chip
and lose Ben forever?

- Yeah, I'm kind of hoping that

we can come up with a
better third option.

- I can pull the firewall,

but they're gonna figure
it out pretty quick.

Well, at least
it'll buy us some time.

- Ian? Jenn?

Look what Tom found.

- Patricia Bradford?

- She and Neal fell in love
doing Broadway 30 years ago.

They split up.

Five years later, she married
a man named Clyde Lambert.

- Lambert, Lambert.

Why does that name
sound so familiar to me?

- Those returned letters
to that publicist.

Her name is Lambert.

- Caroline Lambert. She's
Patricia's daughter.

She just turned 30 years old.

- Oh, my God.

If she's 30 during the leap,

then that means...
- Caroline is Neal's daughter.

- You know this is destiny.
Think about it, Summer.

The universe sent you to me

'cause if you hadn't been here,

I'd have been in jail
or halfway to Catalina.

But otherwise, my
life would've been...

- Let's focus on how
great you're gonna feel

once you have Laura back

and you crush "The
Tonight Show."

I bet Quentin gives
you that part.

- You think?

I like your chances.

- Ben.
- Hmm?

Oh, hey.

I'm just gonna use
the phone real quick.

Just picking up shoes.

- Okay, look. We
might've found a plan B.

- Did plan A go wrong?

- Yes, when Laura threw
you out of her house.

Uh, never mind. Look.

Neal has a daughter he's
never publicly acknowledged.

Caroline Lambert.

- Those letters marked
"return to sender."

- You said this
leap had to be about

more than getting into
"The Tonight Show."

You were right. It's
about his daughter.

- No. No, it's about Laura.

- Ben, come on.

- I think Neal
knows what he wants.

- If Neal knew what he wanted,
he wouldn't be having a crisis.

Okay, come on.

Reconciling with his
daughter makes sense.

What's the name of his boat?

- "Sweet Caroline."
- Exactly.

Look, he tried for years
to reach out to her

with no response.

I mean, it was so
painful for him,

he didn't even put
it in his memoir.

Honestly, we're lucky Tom
put two and two together.

- Tom? Is he a new
guy in the office?

Addison, is he, uh...

is he your boyfriend?

- Ben.

- So he's helping?

He knows about Quantum Leap?

- Actually, he was
one of the ones

who helped get the
lights turned back on

so that we could find you.

- Oh, so he works there?

Has he been watching the leaps?

Wait.

Is that why you're not on board

with helping get Laura back?

Because you're worried

I'll do the same
when I get home?

- What? No.

Ben, my only concern
is to get you home,

not what happens after.

- Oh, really?

Because I can't stop
thinking about both of those.

But yeah, I'm the one who's
stranded and alone, so.

- Okay, look. This is why I've
kept checking in with you.

I knew that you needed time

to process...
- What I needed was

for you to wait for me.

I jumped through time
and space to save you,

And you couldn't
wait three years?

I would've waited
forever for you, Addison.

I would've never
stopped looking.

- It is easy to say
that you would wait

when you're not the
one who had to wait,

When you were the one who left,

and not the one who
got left behind.

Do you know what I
did when they told me

that they were gonna
shut Quantum Leap down?

I tried to jump
in the accelerator

hoping that it would
send me to you.

Yeah, I did that.

You know what else I did?

I gave a eulogy at your funeral.

So do not tell me how
hard it has been for you,

because I waited.

I grieved,

and then I buried you
along with the life

that we were supposed
to have together.

A life that you
left me in alone.

- Hey.

We need to get out of here.

They say there's
some crazy woman...

Yelling
about space and time.

All right, you ready
to win back my love?

So...

How are we doing?

- Your turn to check on me?

- Yeah, Tom actually has
us working in shifts, so.

- Of course he does.

- Look, I'm...

I'm sorry.

That was... that was
really unfair of Ben.

- No, it wasn't.

What happened was

exactly what I
feared would happen.

- I kept something
important from Rachel

and I think at the time,

I thought that maybe
I was protecting her,

but now,

I just think that
maybe I wasn't really

ready to deal with it.

- So are you saying that

Ben might just not be
ready to deal with it?

- Hello again.

We just have a few
last-minute flowers.

- You call that a few?

Yeah, well, see...

see, the bride is
expecting these

and she gets really pissed
off when anyone's late.

- She is lying.

Laura has the
patience of an angel.

I just...
- Was about to just leave.

Sorry for the confusion.

Oh, no.

- She'll love it.

Here. She'll love you.

- Ugh. Guy doesn't have
the decency to wear a tux.

- Ah, don't worry about him.

Do you remember
what we rehearsed?

- Yeah, I'm an actor. I
memorize lines for a living.

Hey, you.

- Neal, you came back?

- Laura, I know this is crazy,

but what would be crazier

is to throw away what we have.

The universe hasn't been
kind to us, but it...

it hasn't given
up on us, either.

We've already overcome
impossible odds,

so let's just go further.

Let me come home to you.

Because in my heart, I
know that's where I belong.

- Neal, you are
such a sweet man.

Are you okay?

You just... you just
seems so lost right now.

- What?

- Coming back with
this grand gesture

like we're in one
of your movies.

But we are not, Neal.
This is reality.

This... this is my life.

We loved each other once.

But that was years ago.

And I am not that woman anymore
and you are not that man

no matter how much
you wish you could be.

It's time to let go.

It's time to move on.

I can't make your
dream come true.

You have to find a new dream.

- I'm sorry.
- No sorrys.

- I should've listened.
- It's okay.

- I was out of my mind.

- It's understandable.

- Can you forgive me?

- There's nothing to forgive.

- It's not your fault,
Summer. I dragged you here.

- No, you didn't.

- It is my curse.

I am impossibly charming.

At least for a little while,
and then it starts to diminish.

A little more quickly than
I would like to admit.

- Well, we still have
"The Tonight Show,"

so we should get going...
- No.

I am going sailing.

- First full day.

Is it all you hoped and dreamed?

Aside from
all this paperwork.

No, it's so much more.

When my wife died,

I remember suddenly feeling
how powerless we all are.

No matter what we think.

And working here
with time travel,

the one thing I thought I
wouldn't have to feel...

- Was powerless. Yeah, I
made that mistake, too.

- Can I ask you a question?

- Sure.

Is it, uh...

about Ian and Jenn?

Because I know they're
up to something.

Then again, they often are.

No.

- Ben and Addison?

- No.

I think the best
thing I can do there

is let her take the lead.

My question is about
the Quantum Accelerator.

I'm not sure I'm
the guy to ask about that.

- First Sam Beckett,
now Ben Song.

In both cases, our assumption
was something went wrong

and if we can fix it,

one or both of them
could come home.

- That is the goal.

- But what if the engine of
Quantum Leap is sacrifice?

What if sacrifice is the price
we have to pay for change?

For 30 years,

we assumed the
technology was broken.

But what if it has
to be a one-way trip?

- But I don't think that'll
stop people from leaping.

I think some will go
even if that's the cost.

There's something
deep down inside of us

that strives to do better.

- And that's what we need

to show the folks in Washington.

- Yeah.

- Okay. We're here.

- This isn't the marina or Leno.

Where the hell are we?

- Your daughter's house.

- How the hell did you...

Well, that was very
clever, Summer,

but, uh... she doesn't
want to see me.

Why do you think she sent
all these letters back?

What am I supposed to do?

Just walk up there,
knock on the door...

And just
say, "I am so sorry."

- Sounds like a start.

- What if she slams
the door in my face?

- She won't.

- What if she doesn't answer?
- She will.

- Oh, what if she hates me?

God, I've made so many
mistakes in my life,

but not having a relationship
with my own daughter?

She has every right
to be furious.

- I have a friend who has a...

complicated relationship
with her father.

She told me that
seeing him in person

changed her life.

Give her a chance to be angry.

Give her a chance to cry.

Someone very smart once told me

"To weep is to make less
the depth of grief."

- Yeah.

- Besides...

you're Neal Russell.

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess I am.

You know, you are gonna
make one hell of an agent.

Thank you.

Neal makes it to Leno.

His daughter drives him.

He tells the story of your
little adventure today

and the appearance completely
revives his career.

He becomes a grandfather.

And now, we have seven more
Neal Russell movies to watch.

- We?

- I'm sorry.
- Yeah, no, no.

That's okay.

Um...

these last two leaps
have been brutal.

- I know.

- I ignored you,
I snapped at you,

I yelled at you, Addison.

I don't want to do that.
- I know.

But Ben, look, we're
going to figure this out.

- No, we won't.

Laura was right.

I have to give up the fantasy.

I have to give up
the happy ending.

- I don't...

Ben, what are you saying?

- I need time.

I can't get over you
if you're always...

you can't be in my
hologram anymore, Addison.

Goodbye.
