*Leaping into a "hurricane party" in 1969 before the landfall of Hurricane Camille<ref>This episode is based on the anecdotal tale of a supposed hurricane party at an apartment complex which was obliterated, and all inside killed, when Hurricane Camille -- one of the most devastating hurricanes to hit the United States -- made landfall.  In reality, the complex was housing first responders and was considered -- tragically, wrongly so -- to be one of the safest buildings on the Gulf Coast.</ref>

It is determined during the leaping that Sam, while appearing as Scott Bakula to the camera, will appear as someone else to other people, in mirrors, in photographs, or on camera.  When Sam leaps into a blind person, retarded person, or handicapped person, he can still see, think, and walk.  When Sam leaps into anyone, that person appears in the quantum accelerator, later called the waiting room, wearing Sam's clothes while he wears his or hers.
