Life while sliding

How it started

On September 27, 1994, one of Quinn's doubles spoke back at the boss Mr. Hurley and got Quinn fired. He also kissed Wade. Hurley and Wade did not know that this was a double and thought it was the same Quinn they knew. Wade found this out later that day when Quinn invited both her and Professor Maximilian Arturo to his house to show them the sliding technology (technology to travel between parallel universes). Quinn, Wade, and Arturo all went sliding, and Rembrandt Brown, who happened to be traveling in the area was accidently pulled into the vortex. Four years the sliders continued to slide to each earth trying to find their way home. September 27 is the 270th day of the year (271st in leap years) in the Gregorian Calendar, with 95 days remaining. ... 1994 was a common year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar, and was designated the International year of the Family. ...

Loss of a friend, and gain of an enemy

Wade was very sad when Maximilian Arturo was shot by Angus Rickman. Maggie Beckett, who joined the remaining three sliders after Arturo's death, ridiculed Wade for her grief over Arturo's passing and saw this as evidence that Wade is weak. Wade and Maggie never got along. In particular, Wade was irritated at Maggie's desire to kill Rickman (who also killed Maggie's husband in addition to Arturo) out of revenge. Quinn appeared to have romantic interest in Maggie when she first started sliding, which might have angered Wade since Quinn could never see that Wade liked him. During this time period, in the episode Stoker, Wade got mixed up with the wrong crowd. It was revealed at the end of the episode that Wade felt lonely. Quinn reminded Wade that she has him and Rembrandt, but she said she felt she needed to be reminded of this more often from some people. Abraham Bram Stoker (November 8, 1847–April 20, 1912) was an Anglo-Irish writer, best remembered as the author of the influential horror novel Dracula. ...


The slide home

Wade and Rembrandt were able to slide to earth prime (though Quinn and Maggie were not able to for three months). Shortly after Wade and Rembrandt returned to earth prime, the Kromaggs took over. Although Wade and Rembrandt shared a prison cell, they couldn't talk much because they knew the Kromaggs would be listening and perhaps playing mind games (so the person they appeared to have been speaking to may have actually been a Kromagg imposter). Eventually when Rembrandt would not tell the Kromaggs what they want, they threatened to send Wade away to a breeder camp. When Rembrandt still would not follow their orders, Wade was sent to the breeder camp. Although Rembrandt felt a large amount of guilt after this, Wade didn't blame him at all for what happened. Earth prime, a term used in the television show Sliders is the name of the alternate earth that the four original sliders (Quinn Mallory, Wade Welles, Rembrandt Brown, and Maximillian Arturo) started their journey. ... The Kromaggs, also called Maggs is a derogatory sense, are a species of humanoid primates with pointed teeth from the science fiction television show Sliders. ...


Requiem

After 18 months since they had been separated, Wade was finally able to communicate to Rembrandt through the multiverse and send the sliders to the earth she was being held. Wade was being kept in a Kromagg science experiment to invade their homeworld; an experiment where her brain was being used as a computer along with other humans the Kromaggs had captured. Wade was able to sabotage the experiment so the Kromaggs would not be able to invade. Rembrandt wanted to save Wade from the Kromaggs but it wasn't possible to physically remove her from the Kromagg experiment. Rembrandt wanted to stay behind with Wade, but Wade would not let him and made him slide to the world the others slid to. Wade destroyed the control panel of the experiment and blocked the Kromaggs from entering. It was not made clear whether Wade lived or died. Requiem is the eleventh episode for the fifth season of the science fiction television show Sliders. ... A multiverse or meta-universe is the hypothetical set of multiple possible universes, including the observable universe, which comprise the whole of physical reality. ...
