Synopsis
Quantum Leap #6. When you're trapped between two storms, survival becomes a leap of faith. Thunder rolls over the New Mexico desert and Sam Beckett leaps into Philip Payne, a doctor involved in the search for an airplane that has gone down in the wilds of British Columbia. The lightning flashes, and Project Observer Al Calavicci also leaps -- into a dying passenger on that airplane. Now Sam must race against time, death, and the forces of nature to save the life of his friend and reunite a father and daughter torn apart by bitterness.
