Ben channels Woodward and Bernstein during his latest leap on Quantum Leap Season 2 Episode 11, “The Outsider.”

After uncovering a long-lost treasure on Quantum Leap Season 2 Episode 10, “The Family Treasure,” Ben is on the case to solve another mystery. This time, it’s as a reporter in the 1980s.

Ben leaps into the body of a young producer for a once famous investigative reporter now working for a local Denver station doing fluff pieces. A mysterious tip leads Ben to look into a possible conspiracy as he tries to convince the reporter to take on the story and revive her career. 

Elsewhere on the episode, there is a lot of drama going on at HQ. The team has to deal with the fallout from Rachel’s boss discovering what Ian did to save Ben while the Quantum Leap program was shut down.

Gideon does not seem like a particularly nice guy. He isn’t likely to just forgive and forget. Plus, we have yet to see Magic’s reaction to what Ian did. Not only that, but there is the fact that Ian and Jenn kept it all a secret from him.

Magic will likely be more forgiving than Gideon, but he still won’t be happy that his team has been lying to him for months.

Episode description: An anonymous source sends Ben and an experienced local Denver TV journalist on the trail of a dangerous conspiracy as they pursue the scoop of a lifetime in the early ’80s. There’s trouble at HQ when Ian’s past decisions come back to haunt the team.
