i'm not sure. maybe the mirror is supposed to show the other side of his face? so the left half of his face looks like lincoln but the right looks like some aging guy?

i like how baffling it is, though. they should just print the angry letters they get rather than the captions

i am having a really hard time seeing that wall join as heading anywhere but in the wrong direction, escher's bathroom shit imo

the key question for me is, is the reflection in the mirror supposed to illustrate this man's sudden realization that he resembles Abe? or is it supposed to show that he IS Abe?

perspective being trusted, it's not his reflection tbh

i mean this is quite clearly a man shaving through the window of abraham lincoln's house
it is a picture of abe lincoln in pajamas with the same bathroom tile walls, hung above the sink

both the caption and the tv show would've been much better if the person leaping was abe lincoln

how about:
"oh boy" (as often uttered in dismay at the end of episodes of '90s US TV show quantum leap by the main character - whose consciousness travels through time and space and into the body of someone other than himself (soemtimes a figure from history) - when the face of his new host body that will feature in the subsequent episode is revealed as he glimpses its reflection in e.g. a bathroom mirror)
