Happy Day After Halloween, the closest we get to a special this year is the LA Riots.
Last week on Quantum Leap: Ben survived Hollywood, but fired Addison. This week? "Poison" and Not-Payless.
"Last week, these were $45, this week, they're $60." Welcome to inflation, lady.
What kind of shoe store closes at 7PM?
"Stop daydreaming, you work for me, you don't get to buy shoes."
Rule of thumb: "Hey, bro?" is a universal question that helps in any situation.
And Ben enters the world of backdoor shoestore dealings.
Oh, hey, they remembered the plot point of Magic buying that jewelry- are he and Beth dating?
So, that's the rub: Magic wanted to retire, but Addison getting fired fucked that up.
"After what you went through last year-" either they already forgot this is supposed to be 2026, or something bad went down in 2025.
And there's about to be a fight in this shoe store.
Okay, not gonna lie, didn't expect to see Addison this week.
"You wanna talk to Ben one more time?" "Ian, I got fired, fuck you."
Ian, Magic has stepped into the Accelerator before, this ain't new for him.
"Wow. Did not see that coming." Well, Ben, you already fired Addison, they don't have many other alternatives.
"LA again. It's almost as if we're handcuffed to California."
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd it's LA RIOT TIME!
"Ben… …I don't think this episode's gonna be about shoes much longer…"
[You know what, NBC, you're right, we do need commercials right now after that revelation.]
I wonder what Ben's thoughts are on "Do the Right Thing".
I have a hunch about how Jin dies, and it might involve the kid he threatened to call the cops on.
"We should close early and go home." "Look, I don't care if today's the LA Riots, we stay, and we work. Shoes wait for no man."
And there's that goddamn alley again.
"You know how he feels about this store." Calling it, it gets firebombed.
It's weird how in 1992, your only options were shoes, or the Marines.
"They're saying shelter in place." They are never going to leave this Not-Payless, are they.
"What am I looking at here?" Magic, it's a giant computer-
"The LA riots were the most complicated riots in human history." Well, by 1992, at least.
I really do love how they're trying to keep the relationship bullshit plot active during the LA Riots episode.
"Hey, son. Standing on the roof with a pistol, you know how it is."
"Well, I'm angry, too! It's the LA Riots, who ain't?!"
"You know, you can use the phone back at the store! Honestly, don't know why we left at all, now!"
"Look, fuck these shoes, we need to leave!"
Sorry, Ben, welcome to your prison for the rest of the episode.
"Where are the police?" Honestly, this is a situation where they may make things worse.
"What are our options?" Pray.
"The riots lasted six days. We got 40 minutes left."
"Someone has to protect our store. This is our Assault on Precinct 13."
Oh, great timing, Ziggy- or Beth, either or.
"You thought you weren't getting relationship bullshit this week, did you, Magic? Guess again, fucker."
... ...interesting time to reveal Magic's alcoholism, episode...
You know, while you two are having this conversation, Ben is staring down the barrel of an assault on the shoestore, so, maybe, pick your battles?
Was Beth's only role in the episode to deliver that bottle and leave?
"Hey Ben, sorry about that, had to talk about my alcoholism."
"I don't want him here!" Jin, that may be the deciding point on whether or not you survive the episode.
"Look, Ben, change of plans, fuck the shoestore, and fuck Jin, bolt."
Jesus Christ, how much damage has this shoestore done to this family if shoes are this pervasive in their lives.
"Look, you think it's bad that I want to make custom shoes?! Your other son wants to join the Marines!"
"Look, I don't care if we're in the LA Riots, you're fired! At least I still have one other son- what the fuck do you mean you joined the Marines?!"
"Hey, I'm sorry I narced-" "Look, I think we have bigger issues at hand, here?"
Dwain, you need to pull off some Metal Gear Solid shit right now.
"Well, we looked for five seconds, that's long enough, we're out."
"Hey, so, uh, Ben, I know this ain't a good time to do this- (refuses to elaborate; leaves)"
"We can just stand here in silence if it helps." Honestly, sometimes, that is the best medicine.
Okay, but imagine how much worse things would've gone if Ben leapt into 1967 this week...
The major universal constant: ACAB
"It doesn't matter if it's 1967, '92, or today." The worst thing is you just know how much Magic had to struggle to limit himself to just three points.
"Look, dad, Dwain is here for protection, shut up."
FINALLY someone calls him out about prioritizing the damn store during the LA Riots.
"When did you learn to speak Korean?!" Someone is breaking in, Jin, now's not important.
And now it's "Do the Right Thing".
[Just had to make a bathroom run, luckily I got back just before the commercials ended.]
"Is it over?" 18 minutes being left says otherwise, ma'am.
They took the shoes, can't have shit in LA.
"Damn, they really did a number on this place." Hey, at least it's not on fire.
"Hey, if you even need to talk, I'm right here." "Magic, the same applies to me." "...okay, so-"
And Ben has something else to add to the list of shit he caused by going missing.
"She got me sober. And, excluding a lone bottle, I was doing pretty alright for the past year."
"Look, Magic, I'm at fault, not you, we had that conversation before." "Yeah, but I'm the guy in charge, so I say we share blame."
Meanwhile, the episode remembered Addison exists.
"Is Ben okay?" "Still in the LA Riots, so, you take a guess."
"Ian, I told you, I got fired, I ain't doing shit this episode-" "Addison, Future Me fucked everything up, sidenote, still waiting on us to pick that plot thread back up, so, really, calm down."
"Things are different now. We're still pretending 2023 is 2026."
Sidenote, why does this gym look like it's in the back of a laundromat?
"IAN, WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU GO, ZIGGY'S HAVING A STROKE!"
So, by helping Dwain, Ben broke the leap, got it.
...Dwain's the one about to die, isn't he...
"Look, you still have your two sons, I'm not the bad guy here." "...I say other wise, how about that?" "Well, fuck you too, how about that?!"
And now it's "Do the Right Thing".
"LOOK, CAN WE PLEASE CALM THE FUCK DOWN, NO ONE NEEDS TO DIE IN THIS SHOE STORE!"
... ... ...I'm trying not to laugh, I swear to fucking God, I'm trying not to laugh...
"Look, when I said no one is dying in this shoestore, I fucking meant it, we need to get Sonny to the hospital."
They need to steal this ambulance, so of course the cops show up to ruin everything.
Jin, no offense, but these guys want to shoot people, so, using yourself as a shield might not work.
Okay, so, somehow that worked.
Dwain, you're driving an ambulance, so, hopefully you're gassing it.
Okay, good, at least we get confirmation Sonny survives.
And there's three minutes left so, for lack of a better phrase, I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.
...ah, the other shoe was AA, alright.
And Ben leaps into Tracer Bullet, and has to deal with another man getting shot.
"GODDAMNIT, I DIDN'T WANT A GUY TO DIE THIS WEEK!"
[Two weeks from now, Ben fights a Nazi.]
You know, it's odd how heavily-shoe focused the LA Riots episode was...
