Pic Title Original Airdate Leap Date #
Genesis (Part 1 & 2) March 26, 1989 September 13, 1956 101
The pilot episode. Sam, desperate to prove his time travel theory before the project runs out of funds, leaps before the kinks are worked out of the machine. He ends up leaping into the pilot of the experimental Bell X-2 aircraft, and has to pretend to be the pilot while trying to fill in the holes in his "Swiss cheese" memory. Later, Sam leaps into minor league baseball player Ken Fox, and has to win the game. This episode does not have the usual opening monologue and theme song; rather, it begins with Al flirting with a girl until he gets word that Sam is leaping.

Note: This episode was originally referred to as 'Pilot'. The title 'Genesis' has become more common in syndicated re-runs, especially in its two-part version.

  • Bruce McGill - Who played Weird Ernie in this episode, also appears as Al the Bartender in the very last episode.
Star-Crossed March 31, 1989 June 15, 1972 102
As a lecherous old professor at a private college, Sam's mission is to stop a young coed from ruining her life by entering into an ill-advised marriage with Sam's host, but along the way, Sam tries to change his own history by reuniting Donna, the woman who will later leave him at the altar, with her father before he ships out to Vietnam. A young Teri Hatcher guest-stars as Donna. "Brushes with history" include the Watergate scandal.
The Right Hand of God April 7, 1989 October 24, 1974 103
Sam is a crooked boxer who must win the championship in order to win the money that his new managers (a group of nuns) need to build a new church. This episode has no major brushes with history, and Sam is also clearly getting better at fitting into character, and changing his character's behavior, without arousing suspicion.
How the Tess Was Won April 14, 1989 August 5, 1956 104
Sam leaps into a veterinarian in rural Texas, and must decide if he needs to win the love of a wealthy Texas rancher or save the life of an important animal. The secret to Sam's leap indicates that this episode specifically takes place just outside of Lubbock, Texas.
Double Identity April 21, 1989 November 8, 1965 105
On the eve of the Northeast Blackout of 1965, Sam leaps into a Mafia hitman -- and later leaps into the Mafia don, hence the episode's title -- as the Quantum Leap project tries to bring him home. The episode is the first to give a clear indication that Sam & Al's mission might be to align their fictional timeline with the viewer's timeline, as there would be little other reason to trigger the infamous power surge in the Lewiston Robert Moses power plant.
The Color of Truth May 3, 1989 August 8, 1955 106
Sam leaps into an aging black chauffeur in the segregated South. He must save his wealthy white employer (the widow of the former Governor of Alabama) from dying in a car crash, while persuading her to play a more active role in the civil rights movement. This is the first episode where Sam has no love interest -- his host is a widower. Al has his first experience being noticed by a human, although she only perceives him as a ghostly voice.
Camikazi Kid May 10, 1989 June 6, 1961 107
Sam leaps into a high school nerd who must prevent his sister from marrying an abusive man - an incident that reminds Sam of the fate of his own sister. The subject of domestic abuse pervades the episode, making it by far the heaviest and most depressing of the first season. In a strain for emotional balance, there are occasional screwball moments, such as a "brush with history" with a toddler Michael Jackson. Jason Priestley guest stars as a popular kid who has little respect for Sam's host.
Play It Again, Seymour May 17, 1989 April 14, 1953 108
Sam leaps into a private investigator looking for the murderer of his partner in a world akin to a Humphrey Bogart film -- or possibly, Sam suggests, a mystery novel. His host bears an uncanny resemblance to Bogart, leading to a "brush with history" with a young fan: Woody Allen. Claudia Christian plays Sam's love interest. The episode, and therefore season one, ends with Sam's first-ever leap into a woman. Unfortunately, the second season ended up being broadcast in a different order than expected, so the episode this teaser was meant for, "What Price Gloria?", actually is the 4th episode of season 2.

[edit] Season 2 (1989-1990)

Pic Title Original Airdate Leap Date #
Honeymoon Express September 20, 1989 April 27, 1960 201
As Tom McBride, a New York City cop on his honeymoon, Sam must save himself from his wife's jealous and sociopathic ex-husband. To make matters worse, the Project's funding is in danger of being cut off, stranding Sam alone in the past, unless he can prevent the U2 flight from being shot down over Russia.
  • Note: This episode is unusual in that it opens and closes in the present time (in the context of the series), as Al struggles to justify keeping project Quantum Leap running to a committee. It is also notable that, at the end of the final episode of the first season, 'Play It Again, Seymour', Sam leaped into a woman, but it did not pick up in this episode. (That story went on to appear in four episodes time, in 'What Price Gloria?')

Sam arrives at a mining town as himself on the date and hour that he was born. Patrons of the town bar look familiar from past leaps, other patrons seem to be leapers, and the bartender implies that he might be God, Fate or Time. While trying to figure things out, Sam has to help save some trapped miners, regain contact with Al, and decide where his final leap will take him...
  • Note: For this final episode, the much loved original version of the opening credits theme, as used in the first four seasons, was brought back. (However, on some later versions, the fifth season theme is used - even though the visuals are still from an earlier season.)
  • * Bruce McGill - Who played Al the Bartender in this episode, also appears as Weird Ernie in the very first episode.
