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?

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

- We'll start a family.

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

She does?

- She does?
- Yes!

Didn't you see the way

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

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

There's something deep down inside of us

that strives to do better.

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...

[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]

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?

[SIGHS]

What am I supposed to do?

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

[SHAKILY] 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?

[SIGHS]

She has every right to be furious.
