Sam meets the evil leaper for the first time.
The Evil Leapers are an evil organization, which works similar to Sam and his project. But this group is evil, and they leap, as part of their objective, in order to try to put wrong what once went right, often in opposition to the work of the Quantum Leap project. The organization, which was inspired and possibly co-founded by a one Dr. Nathaniel Lothoman, who, was supposed to be the next "genius of our time". He built his own complex in the British Isle based on the theories of Dr. Samuel Beckett. In his work with the chamber, either by design or an accident which may have occurred, his being became merged into a quasi-living hybrid computer similar to Ziggy which he was working on, which became Lothos. [1]
One evil leaper named Alia (played by Renée Coleman) was originally the first evil Leaper, until Sam was able to convince her to turn good, in the process, helping her out of the control of the evil leaper group. Like Dr. Beckett, she is trying to get back home to her own time. Zoey, another evil leaper who was sent leaping to kill her (unsuccessfully), had been the Hologram of the project, Formerly working as Al's evil counterpart, when Zoey attempts to kill Alia in the episode Revenge of The Evil Leaper by leaping into a women's prison, where Alia and Sam leaped, the Evil Leapers sent her replacement. An almost comically quirky black scientist named Thames (Hinton Battle) replaces her as the hologram, attempting to guide her in the pursuit of both Sam and Alia.
The project is run by Lothos, the evil computer,and Ziggy's evil counterpart.
