Sliders Special #2

Plot

Once in a while, a pivotal concept or teleplay will cross the desk of Sliders co-creator Tracy Torme that's quite simply too wild and too expensive to produce for the Fox TV series. Careening from one parallel Earth to the next, our Sliders find themselves in a world where Native Americans thwarted all of Western Europe's attempts to colonize and conquer. The European white minority is relegated to slavery, and the country is one nation under Huizlopochtl, the merciless Aztec god of war! One Aztec nobleman, Montezuma IV, has been given a vision from Huizlopochtl, that he is to be his "right hand" on this world, conquering in his name. All Montezuma needs, is a sign. Well, how about one of our heroes' quantum tunnels?! Will Quinn Mallory wind up on the sacrificial altar? And if that ain't enough, there's something new, very big and very hungry moving through the quantum tunnels -- and it eats Sliders! Written by Tracy Torme, Jeof Vita and Jeff Somers.
