1 00:00:01,535 --> 00:00:04,663 Theorizing that one could time travel within his own lifetime, 2 00:00:04,738 --> 00:00:08,435 Dr. Sam Beckett stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator... 3 00:00:08,508 --> 00:00:10,442 and vanished. 4 00:00:15,048 --> 00:00:17,642 He awoke to find himself trapped in the past, 5 00:00:17,718 --> 00:00:21,313 facing mirror images that were not his own... 6 00:00:21,388 --> 00:00:25,518 and driven by an unknown force to change history for the better. 7 00:00:26,693 --> 00:00:30,629 His only guide on this journey is Al, an observer from his own time, 8 00:00:30,697 --> 00:00:35,293 who appears in the form of a hologram that only Sam can see and hear. 9 00:00:36,403 --> 00:00:40,703 And so, Dr. Beckett finds himself leaping from life to life, 10 00:00:40,774 --> 00:00:43,868 striving to put right what once went wrong... 11 00:00:43,944 --> 00:00:46,777 and hoping each time that his next leap... 12 00:00:46,847 --> 00:00:49,077 will be the leap home. 13 00:00:55,622 --> 00:01:00,252 Hmm. 14 00:01:17,978 --> 00:01:22,745 Hi, Doc.

It's a hot one out here today. I'll tell you that much. 22 00:03:00,581 --> 00:03:04,711 Feels like the Good Lord went on vacation, and the devil opened a subdivision, doesn't it? 23 00:03:04,785 --> 00:03:08,778 I think you gotta say that the old Mustangs played pretty well today, 24 00:03:08,855 --> 00:03:12,484 particularly given this game is... Well, what's it gonna be, Coach? 25 00:03:12,559 --> 00:03:16,086 You got a batter? Yeah, yeah, I got a batter. No sweat. He's, uh...

Hmm? 39 00:04:03,276 --> 00:04:06,905 I say, that Doc's a good boy, but he's a pitcher, and he ain't much of a hitter at all. 40 00:04:06,980 --> 00:04:11,542 Leaping around in time has taught me to always be aware, 41 00:04:11,618 --> 00:04:15,714 to never let my guard down and... no matter what... keep myself focused on the moment. 42 00:04:15,789 --> 00:04:18,815 - And whoa! Look out there! - Ball one. 43 00:04:18,892 --> 00:04:21,827 He quick-pitched him. That Tornado pitcher, he quick-pitched Doc. 44 00:04:23,730 --> 00:04:26,824 Well, he's gonna have to finally wash that uniform, looks like. 45 00:04:26,900 --> 00:04:31,496 Swung on! Oh, that... that ball maybe is gonna split the gap out there in right center field. 46 00:04:31,571 --> 00:04:35,234 He's on his way to second base! He's headed for third base! 47 00:04:35,308 --> 00:04:38,106 Here comes the relay throw-in. He's...

Who? 52 00:04:49,089 --> 00:04:51,353 Pete... Ah, never mind. 53 00:04:51,425 --> 00:04:54,360 I've never seen anything like this in my life. Hold tight. Here it comes. 54 00:04:54,428 --> 00:04:57,261 Two outs in the ninth, tryin'to steal a triple! 55 00:04:57,330 --> 00:05:01,130 - Who the hell do you think you are... Maury Wills or somethin'? - Guess I should've stayed at second, huh? 56 00:05:01,201 --> 00:05:03,761 - Stayed? Should've knelt down and prayed! - He was tryin' to win the game. 57 00:05:03,837 --> 00:05:05,771 You keep your big mouth shut. 58 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,775 Now, I suggest you boys change.

He wouldn't have a job if it wasn't for us. 63 00:05:22,055 --> 00:05:26,890 Why don't you just stick your head into the strike zone and save us all a lot of trouble? 64 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,521 Hey, fella! Why don't you just use a gun next time? 65 00:05:30,597 --> 00:05:34,158 Why don't you shut your mouth?

Don't you? 201 00:14:11,050 --> 00:14:14,178 I'm not gonna have trouble with you, am I? Mm, I don't think so. 202 00:14:14,253 --> 00:14:16,380 Let me just explain something to you. 203 00:14:16,455 --> 00:14:20,516 See, Harlan Edwards may wear the manager's uniform on this team, 204 00:14:20,593 --> 00:14:23,027 but I run this team. 205 00:14:23,095 --> 00:14:27,259 And in order to be successful on this team, you have to be a team player. 206 00:14:27,333 --> 00:14:30,825 You are a team player, aren't you, Doc? 207 00:14:30,903 --> 00:14:32,734 I try. 208 00:14:37,943 --> 00:14:41,538 Hey, what'd the dragon lady want? 209 00:14:41,614 --> 00:14:46,517 Oh, she just, uh, wanted to talk to me about my... performance. 210 00:14:46,585 --> 00:14:50,021 I thought she was onto us. 211 00:14:50,089 --> 00:14:52,717 - Us? - Hi, Doc. 212 00:14:52,792 --> 00:14:55,659 I thought that she was drillin' you about us. 213 00:14:55,728 --> 00:14:59,391 - Mother doesn't like baseball players. - Is that right? 214 00:14:59,465 --> 00:15:02,229 Well, last thing I need, though, is for her to get mad at me. 215 00:15:02,301 --> 00:15:05,566 She's the one who makes the decisions on who plays and who doesn't. 216 00:15:05,638 --> 00:15:09,836 Oh, would you stop worryin'. You are gonna start in that game. 217 00:15:09,909 --> 00:15:14,903 And when that scout sees you, you'll be bigger than Sandy Koufax. 218 00:15:17,049 --> 00:15:20,450 Hey, we're going to get some burgers. You wanna come? 219 00:15:20,519 --> 00:15:22,817 No, thanks. I'm gonna call it a night here. 220 00:15:22,888 --> 00:15:25,186 Hey, Doc, maybe you oughta go get a room. 221 00:15:25,257 --> 00:15:28,749 Huh? This ain't no way for a big-leaguer to live. 222 00:15:34,133 --> 00:15:36,067 After a night on Doc's cot, 223 00:15:36,135 --> 00:15:39,662 I wondered how he was able to walk, much less play baseball. 224 00:15:39,739 --> 00:15:44,335 I was also wondering how I was going to fool anyone into believing I was a major league pitcher. 225 00:15:44,410 --> 00:15:48,346 Yeah, there is something magical about a baseball diamond. 226 00:15:51,050 --> 00:15:56,147 Yeah, no matter how old you get, it still makes you feel like a kid. 227 00:15:58,491 --> 00:16:01,051 What are you wearing? What is this? 228 00:16:01,127 --> 00:16:04,426 Oh, I dug up my old uniform. What do you think? Nice, huh? 229 00:16:04,497 --> 00:16:07,159 You played for Navy? Starting pitcher. 230 00:16:07,233 --> 00:16:09,963 Get outta here. I had the lowest earned run average in the league. 231 00:16:10,035 --> 00:16:13,004 Is there anything you haven't done? No. 232 00:16:13,072 --> 00:16:18,271 No, wait. There's these twins at the fitness center. 233 00:16:18,344 --> 00:16:20,574 All right. I'm sorry I asked. Ooh... 234 00:16:20,646 --> 00:16:25,049 I'm sorry. I'm sorry I asked. Did you find out how to get me out of here yet? 235 00:16:25,117 --> 00:16:30,214 Well, apparently Doc took a one-run lead in the ninth inning in the play-off game, 236 00:16:30,289 --> 00:16:33,690 but then he hurt his arm and gave up a two-run homer. 237 00:16:33,759 --> 00:16:37,251 But we still don't know why this game is so important. 238 00:16:38,597 --> 00:16:41,532 The scout. Huh? 239 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,661 The scout. The so... Oh, the scout. The scout. What about the scout? 240 00:16:45,738 --> 00:16:49,003 There's supposed to be a scout at the game tomorrow... a major league scout. 241 00:16:49,074 --> 00:16:52,874 Chucky's all hyped up about this being his big chance to get into the majors. 242 00:16:52,945 --> 00:16:56,711 Yeah, but no... On the original game, Doc got the start, not Chucky. 243 00:16:56,782 --> 00:17:02,379 Yeah, well, uh, I'm not sure that Doc got the start because of his pitching abilities. 244 00:17:02,454 --> 00:17:05,252 Get down! Meaning? 245 00:17:05,324 --> 00:17:09,624 I think he slept his way in. Hey, Bull, get your butt out here! 246 00:17:11,463 --> 00:17:13,693 How's the arm, Doc? It's good. 247 00:17:13,766 --> 00:17:15,734 Good boy. 248 00:17:15,801 --> 00:17:17,735 All right, boys, back to work! 249 00:17:17,803 --> 00:17:19,737 This could be messier than I thought. 250 00:17:19,805 --> 00:17:23,366 What? Oh, no, no. Not with him. 251 00:17:23,442 --> 00:17:25,910 Oh, no? With the owner. 252 00:17:25,978 --> 00:17:28,674 The owner? The female owner. 253 00:17:28,747 --> 00:17:30,681 Oh, the female owner. Yes. 254 00:17:30,749 --> 00:17:32,683 Oh, okay. Well, then, that's perfect. 255 00:17:32,751 --> 00:17:34,946 Yeah, you sleep with her. Uh, you get into the game... 256 00:17:35,020 --> 00:17:37,386 No. No. You change the outcome, and then you leap out. 257 00:17:37,456 --> 00:17:40,050 I don't want to sleep with her. She gives me the creeps. 258 00:17:40,125 --> 00:17:42,218 Well, I don't think you have much choice. 259 00:17:42,294 --> 00:17:47,755 Look, if she gives you the creeps, just... take a couple of aspirin first. 260 00:17:47,833 --> 00:17:52,770 Well, if you don't get in the game, you can't leap out of here. You sure? 261 00:17:52,838 --> 00:17:56,171 Yeah, it's right here in yellow and pink. All right. 262 00:17:56,242 --> 00:17:58,802 Green and blue and orange and purple... All right. All right. 263 00:17:58,878 --> 00:18:01,904 Let's just say that I... do it. 264 00:18:01,981 --> 00:18:06,111 We still got a big problem. I don't know how to pitch. 265 00:18:06,185 --> 00:18:09,245 You can't hold it like that. It's hand pitching. 266 00:18:09,321 --> 00:18:11,687 What's wrong with holding it like this? Because... 267 00:18:11,757 --> 00:18:14,817 It's fine if that was a hand grenade, but it's a baseball. 268 00:18:14,894 --> 00:18:17,454 You gotta treat it like a woman. 269 00:18:17,529 --> 00:18:21,329 Why does everything always come down to being a woman? Just go with me on this, will ya? 270 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,426 You gotta treat the baseball like you love it. 271 00:18:24,503 --> 00:18:26,971 Caress it... just with two fingers. 272 00:18:27,039 --> 00:18:29,064 Over the top, like that. 273 00:18:29,141 --> 00:18:31,666 Right leg's your power leg. You come over the top, 274 00:18:31,744 --> 00:18:33,678 bring your hand down into your glove. 275 00:18:33,746 --> 00:18:37,682 Just two fingers. Want... Make it simple. Aim for the target. He's out. 276 00:18:37,750 --> 00:18:40,913 The worst analogy I've ever heard. This is not gonna work! 277 00:18:40,986 --> 00:18:43,352 You wanna stay here forever? 278 00:18:43,422 --> 00:18:45,481 That's out. 279 00:18:45,557 --> 00:18:47,491 Like a woman. 280 00:18:47,559 --> 00:18:49,754 Over the top. 281 00:18:50,863 --> 00:18:54,264 It worked. Of course it worked. You ever doubt me? 282 00:18:54,333 --> 00:18:56,267 Well, no, I didn't doubt you. It's just... 283 00:18:56,335 --> 00:18:58,269 You doubted me. I didn't doubt you. 284 00:18:58,337 --> 00:19:01,306 You did too. 285 00:19:01,373 --> 00:19:05,366 - Wow. - You're lucky I didn't throw you my fastball. 286 00:19:05,444 --> 00:19:08,004 - I know what you're thinking. - Okay, everybody in the showers. 287 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,344 You don't know what I'm thinking. Yes, I do know what you're thinking. 288 00:19:10,416 --> 00:19:14,182 You're thinking, "How can I do that to this kid? He's got all the talent." 289 00:19:14,253 --> 00:19:18,485 Well, trust me. It isn't gonna matter. What are you talking about? 290 00:19:18,557 --> 00:19:21,492 That is what I'm talking about. 291 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,825 He gets caught doin' the bingo-bango-bongo with Lolita there, 292 00:19:24,897 --> 00:19:28,993 gets kicked off the team and never makes it back into organized ball. 293 00:19:30,302 --> 00:19:32,702 It's gonna kill his father. 294 00:19:32,771 --> 00:19:37,071 Well, that's gonna be hard to do. The father deserted the family when he was five years old. 295 00:19:37,142 --> 00:19:40,077 No, no, that can't be right. He told me his father played baseball. 296 00:19:40,145 --> 00:19:44,309 Well, when you make somebody up, you can make 'em up to be whatever you want 'em to be. 297 00:19:44,383 --> 00:19:47,944 I wonder what would happen if they didn't get caught. 298 00:19:48,020 --> 00:19:51,046 - What does Ziggy say about that? - Don't you have enough to worry about? 299 00:19:51,123 --> 00:19:55,822 Hey, Doc! Doc! Old Lady Twilly wants to see you in her office. 300 00:19:55,894 --> 00:19:58,328 Now I do. 301 00:19:59,665 --> 00:20:01,724 Yeah, yeah. All right. 302 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:06,328 I've just been goin'over your press clippings. You've had a very interestin'life. 303 00:20:06,405 --> 00:20:08,896 You don't know the half of it. 304 00:20:08,974 --> 00:20:13,604 I suppose so. Looks to me like you lost interest in the game for a while. 305 00:20:13,679 --> 00:20:16,546 Yeah, well, I had some things to work out. Mm. 306 00:20:16,615 --> 00:20:20,676 Well, it must be very difficult carryin' around that kind of guilt. 307 00:20:20,753 --> 00:20:25,190 I don't know why in the world you'd wanna put yourself in for it again. 308 00:20:25,257 --> 00:20:29,523 Well, I just... I'm looking at this as a way to bring everything full circle... 309 00:20:29,595 --> 00:20:32,564 and then... move on. 310 00:20:32,631 --> 00:20:35,862 Well, maybe I can help you. 311 00:20:37,403 --> 00:20:41,897 Now, I'll bet I can show you a few tricks you've never even dreamed of if you'd let me. 312 00:20:41,974 --> 00:20:44,408 I don't know... about that. 313 00:20:44,476 --> 00:20:46,410 Who-Who-Who is this? Is this your husband? 314 00:20:46,478 --> 00:20:48,969 Yes. Where is he? 315 00:20:49,048 --> 00:20:51,482 He died of a heart attack. 316 00:20:51,550 --> 00:20:56,681 Oh. I'm-I'm sorry to hear that. He looks like a very fine man. 317 00:20:58,290 --> 00:21:02,124 He used to dress up in my underwear and pretend he was Judy Garland. 318 00:21:04,096 --> 00:21:06,155 Do you hear that? 319 00:21:06,231 --> 00:21:09,291 What?

Doc here deserves to start. 545 00:36:16,007 --> 00:36:18,567 Well, what's it gonna be? 546 00:36:20,378 --> 00:36:25,111 Okay. Okay. But you'd better be good. 547 00:36:26,484 --> 00:36:28,645 Now, go on. Get dressed. 548 00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:31,484 All right, let's play ball! 549 00:36:31,556 --> 00:36:34,320 Strike! 550 00:36:39,931 --> 00:36:41,694 Nice job. 551 00:36:52,410 --> 00:36:54,708 Here's the pitch. Swung on. 552 00:37:05,924 --> 00:37:10,384 Well, fans, it appears that we've got us one heck of a pitcher's duel goin' on here. 553 00:37:10,462 --> 00:37:12,862 I sure hope ol' Doc Fuller can keep it up. 554 00:37:12,931 --> 00:37:17,197 He's been pitchin' about like a brute sow in a slop-eatin' contest. 555 00:37:17,268 --> 00:37:20,066 Ain't been pretty, but he's been gettin' the job done. 556 00:37:20,138 --> 00:37:23,539 I can't believe it, Al. I mean, I'm actually pitching pretty good here. 557 00:37:23,608 --> 00:37:25,974 Of course you are. But it's not all you, Sam. 558 00:37:26,044 --> 00:37:28,945 No, no, no. Thanks to you. No, I mean, you helped me too. I mean, you're... 559 00:37:29,014 --> 00:37:30,982 No, I don't mean that. I don't mean that. 560 00:37:31,049 --> 00:37:35,213 I mean that I've been tracking this game against the original, and... What? 561 00:37:35,286 --> 00:37:38,653 Well, it seems exactly the same. Every hit, every pitch is the same. 562 00:37:38,723 --> 00:37:40,884 It's like history repeating itself. 563 00:37:40,959 --> 00:37:43,086 What happens with this batter? 564 00:37:43,161 --> 00:37:46,096 Grounds out to short. 565 00:37:50,135 --> 00:37:54,401 There's a hot shot over to the shortstop. He scoops it up, fires to first. 566 00:37:54,472 --> 00:37:56,736 There's out number one. 567 00:37:56,808 --> 00:38:00,107 Probably was a coincidence. Huh. 568 00:38:03,148 --> 00:38:05,708 Well, ol'Doc... He looks a little tired out there. 569 00:38:05,784 --> 00:38:08,344 Here's the pitch, and swung on! There's a line drive... 570 00:38:08,420 --> 00:38:11,048 Clean hit sinking into left field. 571 00:38:11,122 --> 00:38:14,922 This is how it happened, isn't it? 572 00:38:14,993 --> 00:38:18,451 I think Doc's beginning to feel lazy. Uh, you lose the game, yeah. 573 00:38:18,530 --> 00:38:21,226 Yeah. Yeah. 574 00:38:22,867 --> 00:38:24,801 Time, Ump. Time out! 575 00:38:24,869 --> 00:38:28,270 Time? What for, time? What are you doin'? 576 00:38:28,339 --> 00:38:30,637 I'm taking myself out of the game. Taking your what? 577 00:38:30,709 --> 00:38:33,200 You can't. You gotta finish the game, Sam. 578 00:38:33,278 --> 00:38:35,212 Why? So history can repeat itself? 579 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:38,147 I can't be here to make the same mistake twice, Al. What the hell's the matter? 580 00:38:38,216 --> 00:38:40,741 My arm's dead. I'm taking myself out of the game. 581 00:38:40,819 --> 00:38:44,482 Well, you're risking an awful lot, Sam. Yeah, I know. 582 00:38:44,556 --> 00:38:47,457 It's all yours, kid. 583 00:38:47,525 --> 00:38:50,119 Well, now, here's a surprise. 584 00:38:50,195 --> 00:38:52,755 Looks like Doc Fuller is pullin'himself off the mound, 585 00:38:52,831 --> 00:38:54,992 and he's turnin'this game over to Myerwich. 586 00:38:55,066 --> 00:38:57,557 - Go get 'em. - Play ball! 587 00:38:58,235 --> 00:39:00,497 Chucky's gonna pitch. 588 00:39:02,807 --> 00:39:06,436 Yeah!

That one could get outta here. 602 00:40:41,472 --> 00:40:43,531 Doc Fuller is goin'back, goin'back. 603 00:40:43,608 --> 00:40:47,704 That ball just might be high off the wall, or it's outta here for sure. 604 00:40:47,779 --> 00:40:51,340 Fuller's goin'back, goin'back field, lookin'up now. 605 00:40:51,416 --> 00:40:55,750 He may have a beam on it. He's... He's climbin'the fence! 606 00:40:55,820 --> 00:41:00,883 He got it! What a catch! What a game! 607 00:41:00,959 --> 00:41:03,928 - Great catch! - Yes!

Chucky pitches a one-hitter in the championship game... 622 00:42:06,858 --> 00:42:09,122 and then gets upped to the majors in six months. 623 00:42:09,193 --> 00:42:13,152 Wait a second. What about Doc? I mean, it was his game. 624 00:42:14,732 --> 00:42:17,758 Ah, there's not much call for a 35-year-old rookie with a bum arm. 625 00:42:19,437 --> 00:42:23,464 But it took brains to yank yourself out of that game. 626 00:42:23,541 --> 00:42:26,772 I could use a pitching coach with those kind of smarts. 627 00:42:29,747 --> 00:42:32,272 Are you offering me a job in the majors? 628 00:42:32,350 --> 00:42:34,341 Unless you've got other plans. 629 00:42:34,419 --> 00:42:37,013 Sam, this is great. Ziggy was hung up on semantics or something, 630 00:42:37,088 --> 00:42:39,522 but this is the break that Doc needed... pitching coach. 631 00:42:39,590 --> 00:42:42,650 No, no.

Might as well leap. 636 00:43:01,779 --> 00:43:04,077 I don't think so. 637 00:43:05,717 --> 00:43:09,881 Hey, kid, come here. I want you to meet somebody. 638 00:43:14,993 --> 00:43:17,393 This is Warren Monroe. 639 00:43:17,462 --> 00:43:19,953 Uh, Mr. Monroe. 640 00:43:23,768 --> 00:43:25,702 Have we met before? 641 00:43:27,071 --> 00:43:29,096 Long time ago. 642 00:43:29,173 --> 00:43:33,109 He's a big fan of yours.

And Doc goes back to the major leagues. 655 00:44:35,173 --> 00:44:39,439 Everything's great. You know, Al, I think I should have played baseball instead of basketball. 656 00:44:39,510 --> 00:44:42,172 Oh, yeah? I think I could have been a pretty good baseball player. 657 00:44:42,246 --> 00:44:47,115 Hey, Doc, that was a heck of a catch. 658 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:50,979 Yeah, it... it wasn't too bad. 659 00:44:59,230 --> 00:45:02,165 That's the last of it. 660 00:45:02,233 --> 00:45:04,861 Comin' through. 661 00:45:04,936 --> 00:45:08,667 Thanks.

It's hideous, isn't it? 663 00:45:12,376 --> 00:45:15,140 I know it's silly, but I'd just die if anything happened to it. 664 00:45:15,213 --> 00:45:17,306 It's all I got left from my dad. 665 00:45:17,381 --> 00:45:20,214 Then you sure don't wanna leave it behind for a hurricane. 666 00:45:20,284 --> 00:45:23,117 Hurricane? 667 00:45:23,187 --> 00:45:25,621 Oh, boy.
