Summaries

While vacationing, the Sliders stumble across a scientist whose research involving supernatural snakes gets out of hand when one of the critters escapes. -TV Guide

Alternate Earths

100. Snakebit Earth

In the southern part of this world's California, approximately where Los Angeles is on ours, is a region known as Delgado. Tobacco is illegal in this world and Delgado is the center of cultivation and exporting for this drug.

Visitors to this world should steer clear of this dangerous region and be especially wary of any snakes they might run across. At least one species of snake on this world, the triadder, seems to possess some amount of intelligence and definately knows how to hold a grudge. The venom of the triadder, also sold illegally, is said to be an aphrodisiac.

Notes

• OK, would someone please tell me why Quinn and Remmie would decide to 1) take a vacation into the middle of this world's drug country and, what is worse, 2) split up from Wade and Maggie, leaving them stuck 400 miles away from the timer? This doesn't seem to be very intelligent behavior on the parts of our heroes...
