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. It would probably also wreak havoc for the top-secret nature of PQL of all the leapees remembered enough facts for them to compare notes. Not to mention the possible serious repercussions of “The Leap Home part 1” and “A Leap for Lisa.” [Kwong] Don Bellisario believes a lot of these people ended up writing books about
