13 | !!Tropes present in the episode: |
14 | * ContinuityNod: Speaking through Mallory, Quinn reminds Maggie of [[Recap/SlidersS04E21RoadsTaken when they got married and had a son]]. |
15 | * ConvenientReplacementCharacter: Thanks to Mallory and Diana joining the team, the Sliders remain a quartet after losing Quinn and Colin. |
16 | * EvolvingCredits: With Quinn gone, the OpeningMonologue is now narrated by Rembrandt. The O'Connell brothers are no longer listed in the title sequence... |
17 | ** SpoilerOpening: ...and to [[AvertedTrope avoid]] showing the new team members ahead of time... |
18 | ** SpecialEditionTitle: ...it features only Cleavant Derricks and Kari Wuhrer. |
19 | * FakeShemp: Quinn and Colin are played by stand-ins, and are only seen from behind. Quinn even says one line in a voice that sounds nothing like Jerry O'Connell's. |
20 | * FlipPersonality: Mallory keeps shifting between his own personality and Quinn's. |
21 | * FusionDance: The two Quinns are the "switcher" variety. The new Quinn is the dominant persona, but the old Quinn sometimes takes control. |
22 | * MagicCountdown: Dr. Geiger's machine still beeps, but does not actually count down when it's out of shot. |
23 | * PutOnABusToHell: Colin has been "unstuck," doomed to endlessly drift across the multiverse with no way to stick to one dimension. |
24 | * TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: Geiger's experiments wreak havoc on his world and threatens others. |
25 | * TheNicknamer: Rembrandt dubs Mallory "Fog Boy." |
26 | * WhamLine: |
27 | -->'''Rembrandt''': Who the hell are you?\ |
28 | '''Mallory''': I'm Quinn. Quinn Mallory. |
