Quantum Leap – Leaping in Without a Net [2.19]

Sam leaps into Victor Panzini, the son in a circus trapeze act.  Victor’s sister Eva is determined to do a dangerous stunt that her mother died attempting, a year earlier.  Sam has to make sure that it he, and not Victor’s father Lazlo, who is there to catch Eva, or she will be killed as well.  The only problem is that Sam has no experience on a trapeze and is terrified of heights.
