Tamera (Tamera Mowry) learns a lesson about skipping school when Ray (Tim Reid) reveals a dark secret from the past.

The detetives search for clues when a drug dealer's wife is found murdered; a young prostitute's body is discovered lying by trash outside an apartment building; Diane tells Simone that she is pregnant.

As the Sliders cross a desert, Quinn (Jerry O’Connell) asks Arturo (John Rhys-Davies) about his failing health, and is told to keep quiet. They enter a small town, looking for water, and see a girl, Devin (Gina Phillips), being abducted. As Wade (Sabrina Lloyd) watches this, the girl sends her a telepathic message: "help me."

In a world governed by the corporate world, the Sliders find themselves standing out in the business suit crowd by their casual dress. Arturo (John Rhys-Davies), enraged when someone spills coffee on him, is quickly accosted by several people in suits, who sedate him and take him away. Arturo is placed under the care of Dr. Bolivar (David Purdham), who brainwashes him into thinking he is Reginald Doyle, a Sherlock Holmes-type detective.

The Sliders slide from a Mardi Gras dimension into an amusement park and witness an accident between a skater and a bicyclist. The biker, Gerald (Zach Ward), touches the skater and tells him to drop dead. Moments later the skater dies. The Sliders rush to help him, but when a policewoman sees who the biker is, she cancels the ambulance. When the Sliders complain, the policewoman tells them to leave, that they are only causing problems. As they go, the biker, Gerald, stops Wade (Sabrina Lloyd), telling her that he will see her "in your dreams."
