2) Name something it taught you.
3) Relax, you're done!

BLINKER: I learned that Hawk50's not the only one with a raspberry beret... the kind you find in a second-hand store.

What I learned...

From: EustiSlider


I learned that stirring up a band of revolutionaries is just plain fun!

I also learned from the same scene that the reason for JOC's lack of acting in S4 was due to some of his over acting in earlier seasons.

I learned that there really is no choice when a prince proposes. Always choose the jerk who doesn't notice you.

...back in '95, when I first saw this episode not long after the Pilot, I learned one simple thing.

All Arturo doubles are evil. ALL OF THEM. :)

*Ahem*

"Moral of the Story,
by Sabre Edge

Well... um... I wasn't able to do my homework today <fidget> because.. um.. I forgot to put a tape in the VCR. <squrim>

The moral of this story is to check the VCR *before* 3:00pm. :p

If I had watched the episode I could expound deeply into philosophical matters dealing with Wailing and Princes. <hoping the BSing is working on Mr. Blinker>

I should have another report ready tomorrow. The End"

<hurries back to seat and slouches down to hide>

Never trust anyone on tv. Unless they have a catchy theme song.

And the official TM Moral(TM) of today is...

"You, too, can lead a revolution! All you need is a self-righteous belief that your system of government is better than what any other world could come up with! You may end up in the electric chair, but don't worry, the guy you've accused your not-girlfriend of flirting around with will save you, just like usual."

An electric chair is actually nothing at ALL like an electric blanket.

Doing a satire on the British is a good way to the get the episode pulled off a United Kingdom video compilation.

Today's Fluxism is brought to you by "Can 'O Asbestos - When You Just *Have* to Have Cancer *Now*!"

dellyone woke up after being sedated from ranting about some screws and hammering them into the wall. She looked up and freaked when she saw a man dressed in the most horrible red and green suit, holding a flashing multicolored handlink a few feet away from her.

"What's your name? Where were you just a few minutes ago? What year is it?" he fired off in succession as he walked to dellyone.

"Who the hell are you and what am I doing here?" asked a groggy dellyone as she saw the flashing handlink. "Hey, is that a futuristic timer?"

He ignored her questions. "My name is Al. I don't have time to explain. What's your name?"

"dellyone. I got to get out of here. I have to slide," she replied as she got up from the table she was on. She looked down and saw that she was wearing a white skintight body suit.

"What the f..?" she said in amazement as she saw her reflection on the table - a man with a white streak in his hair looking back at her. "Whoa! What did they give me? I'm hallucinating now."

"Um... what year is it?" Al insisted. "I have to find my friend." Al looked up and asked the air. "Ziggy, can you find Sam?"

"No. I can't get a lock on him. I need the date," answered a female voice.

"Cool. You talking to a Q?" asked dellyone as she balanced herself by placing her hand on the edge of the table.

"What's the date!" ordered as he grabbed her right shoulder and turned her around to face him.

"September 1, 2000," said dellyone as she was shocked into lucidity.

"Thank you! Ziggy you got it!" Al kissed her on the forehead.

"Yes, admiral," replied Ziggy.

"Uh... okay. I have this rule about not interfering with others. Kind of my Prime directive. I don't interfere with the internal workings of a society that I have slid into. I stay away from others and I don't get screwed," she replied, hands on her hips.

Time was running out so Al reverted to his military no nonsense attitude. "Sorry, but I *have* to find my friend. You *are* going to help me whether you want to or not. Now where were you right before you woke up here?" His stare bore holes into dellyone.

"Katherine Williams Institute in Los Angeles," she meekly responded. "We are on Earth 1013 right?"

Al was stumped and he didn't have time. "Dr. Beeks, report to the waiting room," he ordered gruffly.

"I'll be right there, Al," answered a disembodied voice.

Al left in a huff mumbling "Nutcase" leaving dellyone to her own devices.

"Wonder if they'll take me to the Universal Studios backlot. I still haven't seen the Delorean or found Doc Brown. I need to get back to March 22, 1995 and watch the 'Pilot' again." She began to hum the 'Sliders' theme song.

P.S.
Kudos go to anyone who can figure out who runs the Katherine Williams Institue.;-)


The moral is...

From: KllyWlls


Sliders are easily swayed..they will believe everything you say if you know what to use:

Quinn: A female lead (As if that weren't obvious already)
Wade: Tabloids
Professor: Cheese
(Note this long lost scene between Bennish and the Professor that was deleted from the pilot)

"Hey Professor I forgot my paper today, but here's some cheese..."

"Huh? Cheese? Did you say Cheese?"

"Yes...here you go"

"Mmmphmph...What was that first part again?"

"Oh nothing important, hee hee"

That yanks and Canadians and whoever was in charge of this think all British people speak like someone put a hoop in their mouth!

I would LOVE to see you guys decipher a Geordie's accent, or an Essex one. Or any REAL accent for that matter.
