Quantum Leap1989

[Al has returned with the book about the case Sam is living]

Dr. Sam Beckett:
Who killed Phil?

Admiral Al Calavicci:
I don't know.

Dr. Sam Beckett:
What do you mean you don't know? You've got the book, I saw you.

Admiral Al Calavicci:
Yeah, but, you know, it's an unfinished mystery. It's one of those contest books that had in the '50s. You figure out who did the murder and if the cops can prove it, then you win ten grand. [hold up the book]

Dr. Sam Beckett:
Al, it says "Who Killed Grimsley *and* Allen?"

Admiral Al Calavicci:
Yeah, I thought you'd notice that last part.

Dr. Sam Beckett:
How did I die?

Admiral Al Calavicci:
Back-stomped an ounce of lead.

Dr. Sam Beckett:
Klapper?

Admiral Al Calavicci:
Probably, but nobody ever collected on it.

Dr. Sam Beckett:
Who did the readers suspect?

Admiral Al Calavicci:
Everybody from Joseph Stalin to Colonel Mustard. But most of the folks voted for your paramour, the Red Widow.
