| Summary:
Rembrandt, Maggie, Mallory and Diana
are trapped on a strange world (Asteroid orbiting a white warf star) in between dimensions
called Purgatory. With the timer frozen and no chance of escape they soon find themselves
pressed into service with a special forces team from Quinn Mallory's homeworld (Kromagg
Prime). The unit, under the command of Sergeant Vernon Larson, is fighting a war against a
small contingent of Kromaggs who are also stranded there. Larson's job
is to guard a secret bunker and its unknown contents. The Kromaggs want what's inside.
Larson will do anything to protect it, including recruiting the Sliders and putting guns
in their hands. The Sliders discover the true meaning of hopelessness and despair when
they learn that the anti-Kromagg weapon (Voraton KR-17) they seek, which was located in
the secret bunker, is useless to them. Things worsen until all they have left is this war
of attrition. Diana later discovers that the vortex has been open ever since they slid and
discovers a way to move the vortex within the secret bunker. Before they slide, Maggie
activates the anti-Kromagg weapon and exits into the vortex. |
