Why this must be read:
Before the angst of separation and not being able to touch, was a period where Sam and Al worked together on Project Starbright, then worked to raise funds and build Project Quantum Leap. This fic takes place then, and it's hilarious. The dialogue is also bang on in character, and a lot of fun.
Al tells one white lie to get Sam out of a bind, and it all goes down hill from there.
“Go back to her and come back engaged. That’s an order.”
“She doesn’t want to get married,” Sam told him.
“So? Move in. I’ll pack and follow ya.”
Sam gripped his best friend’s shoulders through the uniform. “Al, she wants a one-night stand. She offered me ten million dollars for the project if I’ll… uh… do it with her.”
Al shook his head in disbelief. “Ten?” he mused. “Yeah, I see your point. Try for fifteen.”
“Al, I’m not prostituting myself for science!”
Now Al really stared. Sam had obviously gone ‘round the bend. “Sam, she’s hot, she’s horny, she wants to fund the Project. Get with the program.”
“Al, are you crazy? We’re here for grants, not for… for…” Sam was at a loss for words.
Al stared across the room, contemplating options. “Gee, Sam, I do understand. You can’t do this. Hmm… think she goes for uniforms?”
