Double Body Swap (Part 1) - Egzona and Falé
Added 2022-09-12 05:41:13 +0000 UTC
Hi All,
The Leaper 'gains' a new power in this episode...or maybe it's improving on an existing one...but either way he's now able to switch between two people in an episode. The Leaper returns to Germany while two people are both holding the phone. At first he lands in Egzona's body, but quickly discovers he can move between her and her friend Falé, and back again when they are both holding the phone. At first it's fun and a bit exciting, but then something happens that changes everything...
This one also has a special guest star and is a 2 part episode, just because there was so much to cover. :)
Hope you enjoy and thanks again for making this possible! :)

Thank you so much! I've wanted to do an episode like this for over a year now, but kept having the actors dropout, so I'm thrilled I finally got to tell this story and couldn't ask for a better duo. Egzona and Falé were up for filming and re-filming scenes, along with traveling to multiple locations to make this episode happen. And I definitely see the Leapers abilities evolving, but at the moment at least, can't make him 'to powerful', because then it makes things to 'easy for him'. So limitations are great for storytelling, but at some I would like to see more evolution of the character's abilities. :)

Thanks! I'm always up for more complexed storylines, but you have to find the right actors who are willing to take on harder subjects, which means more work. And yeah, if the Leaper/Egzona had the "Leaper Phone", there would have been a quick swap into Hanna as I demonstrated with the previous footage I post about the actor that dropped out. But since in the story The Leaper had to race to the train station and didn't have the phone, coupled with 'Hanna' only being able to film that day as she was heading out of town, we just had them cross paths. Maybe in the future we'll see that happen, couldn't this time, but I was thrilled to have Hanna make a return appearance. :)

Interesting. The plot thickens. Also I always kinda wondered what would happen if you ran into a former leap "in the wild"

This was fantastic! From the special guest, to the fun hijinks, to the levity between the characters, it’s all just great. Sometimes I forget it’s not actually “James” traveling the world. I was actually happy for the character this ep. I really like the multiswap eps like this. I feel like we’re so close to the Leaper being able to leap bodies at will. OR, I would love to see something crazy, like him accidentally swapping the bodies of others—like if these two friends ended up swapping with each other. That’d be super fun!
Anyway, please keep up creative riffs on the idea like this one, it keeps it really fresh, and I think it’ll keep people excited by the story!
