11 April 2007 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

this is a pretty interesting episode.

SAM ending up quantum leaping in a mob guy who falls for the mob boss's mistress i thinking that what she was but really loves the guy SAM first quantum leaps into.

i wonder if SAM was glad that he did not have to kill anyone knowing who he leaping into. Sam did at the end leap into the mob boss.

I hope the guy Sam first leaped into lived happily ever after.

i am try the best i can with a comment an i'm still not getting in.
