Present Sam: (Narration) When I leap, It's usually in my own Lifetime. And I had leaped in the Middle of the 1968 Election as Robert Kennedy, John's Brother. I didn't know squat about politics, but I knew he was important and that he, Like John, was assassinated.

Sam: I will bring the Military home from Vietnam. (The crowd cheers) The incumbent president was not thinking when he sent us to a Country we don't know. Besides, I will reform Civil Rights policies, and continue to do the things Johnson did but better.

(Crowd Cheers as Al enters)

Man: No further Questions for Mr. Kennedy.

Sam: Al...  You have some explaining to do of why I'm here.

Al: Be patient Sam. Ziggy is working on it! The date is June 1st, 1968... You're in California... Your name is...

Sam: Robert F. Kennedy. John's Little brother.

Al: How did you know?

(Sam Shows his Mirror Image)

Al: Whoa... Now why you're here... Ziggy is still...

Sam: I know what happened. My Swiss Cheese memory knows that Bobby Kennedy like his brother was assassinated!

Al: Well sure Mr. Swiss Cheese Memory. I'll get back with you later.
