 Overview |
The First Season:
1. Pilot [1:24:13]
While working in his basement, Quinn Mallory opens a gateway to parallel worlds. For a test run, Quinn invites co-worker Wade Welles and his teacher, Professor Arturo, along. Upon opening the vortex, Quinn uses too much power, which causes the vortex to suck them in along with Rembrandt "Crying Man" Brown, who happens to be driving by Quinn's house. The four arrive on a world that experienced an ecological disaster and they will have to survive until their timer hits zero. After barely escaping the last world, the Sliders think they are home. But to their horror, Quinn and Arturo learn they are not and have instead arrived on a world where the Soviet Union rules America. Rembrandt has been arrested for trying to use American money, and the only way to save him is for the others to help a group of revolutionaries rescue their imprisoned leader.
2. Fever [41:36]
On a world where Penicillin was never invented, Quinn is mistaken for his double, who is believed to be the cause of a massive epidemic. While he is imprisoned by a health agency, Wade shows signs of being infected and only Arturo can find the cure.
3. Last Days [42:04]
The Sliders arrive on a world that will be destroyed by an asteroid before they are due to slide. Arturo works with Bennish to develop the atom bomb to destroy the asteroid, and Rembrandt gets caught up in an end of the world celebration, while Quinn and Wade confront their feelings for one another.
