This episode bears a strong resemblence to your typical Quantum Leap episode, where the protagonist "leaps" into the body of someone else and while he can see himself in a mirror, everyone else sees him as the person he "leaps" into.

Frank: In the name of the Father, Son...and the holy crankshaft.

Frank: You saw Rambo? (edit)
