Gillian Of The Spirits - S2-E3

Plot hole: Quinn is unable to touch anything or anyone, yet he is somehow able to sit in a taxi cab. Why doesn't he fall through the car seat?

Suggested correction: This is a common trope with ghosts or people on the astral plane or out of phase. It's not a mistake since it's not a real life thing and it's not explained how it works (although there are some theoretical physics theories behind it). He can sit in the cab the same way he can walk on the ground and up stairs.

Post Traumatic Slide Syndrome - S2-E8

Plot hole: Since Quinn's double built a sliding system in his basement, our sliders could have used it to reset the timer and go home, just like they intended to do in the episode "Eggheads."

Mistakes

As Time Goes By - S2-E13

Other mistake: The Sliders discover the reverse-time issue when they notice that the clock on the wall is backward. However, in other shots, clocks look normal. Look carefully at the clocks on the judge's desk as the camera pans by.

Quotes

Just Say Yes - S4-E7

Agent Lowell: That's Mallory all right. Busted twice for non-possession. Jumped bail a year ago and ran off to Mexico.
Damon: I heard he died of an under-dose.
Agent Lowell: Same here. I guess we were wrong, huh? It's a safe bet Mallory snuck back into the country to spread more of his anti-drug propaganda. A guy like that shouldn't be on the street.

Questions

Post Traumatic Slide Syndrome - S2-E8

Question: At the end of the episode, do we know for sure that the right Arturo slid with the others, instead of the Arturo of the world that they were on? Or is it simply meant for us to wonder?

Matty Blast

Answer: The show's creator admitted that it was the wrong Arturo.

Chosen answer: It's left for us to wonder.
