Sam skulle byta till "leapee" och försöka fixa vad de hade gjort för att mucka upp sin tidslinje. Generellt skulle det vara att påverka ett enda dåligt beslut snarare än att göra några stora livsstilsval på deras vägnar. Det betyder att när de återvände skulle de inte längre kunna göra det "dåliga" valet och helt enkelt fortsätta med sina liv som tidigare.

Q. What does the leapee remember about his experience after he returns?
This is also not known. The only time we've seen this occur was in the
episode "Double Identity," where Sam leaped to replace another body
and the original host returned. He APPEARED to have no memory of
anything after he was leaped into. It has been stated that the leapee,
while in Sam's body back in the Waiting Room, has a 'swiss-cheesed'
memory, much like Sam received upon his initial leap. Because of the
ultramodern hospital-like atmosphere of the waiting room, many of the
leapees believe they have been abducted by aliens. Deborah Pratt says
that as the leapees return, they pick up some of Sam's memories of
what happened, but they believe the events happened to them.
