The quote

Theorizing that one could time-travel within his own lifetime, Dr. Sam Beckett stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator - and vanished.

The puzzle as it was set

The key

Each code letter stood for one real letter (code letter, then the real letter it hid):

T → AD → BE → CO → DZ → EM → FF → GC → HL → IW → KU → LN → MJ → NV → OQ → PK → QY → RG → SR → TB → UH → VX → WP → Z

The most frequent code letter was Z (15 times), which stood for E. Short words, apostrophes and repeated letters are the usual way in: a one-letter word is almost always A or I, and THE is the commonest three-letter word in English.
