BT wears a Dodger cap at Giants games.

My Unknown Fact for this episode is that David Peckinpah loved it. Well, parts of it. OK, just the part where Quinn confronts the Professor at his press conference.

Peck was so distressed that there was no asterisk next to Roger Maris' home run record that he came up with a Season Three episode, "The Pecksodus", where a giant asterisk threatened to destroy the world unless it was allowed back on Maris' baseball card. Unfortunately, the new baseball commissioner is inexplicably a British colonel who needs constant injections of a mixture of steroids and pine tar to stay alive. The Sliders must find a way for some of the people they met to survive, while leaving the rest of the world to die, or something.

Instead we got "The Exodus". <TM coughs.>
