Similarly, the cliffhanger at the end of "Summer of Love" leads directly into the opening of "Prince of Wails" — which FOX had actually aired a week earlier.

For Season Two, FOX did not want to resolve the cliffhanger at the end of "Luck of the Draw," preferring to focus instead on brand-new storylines. In this episode, the audience learns why the Sliders will now be able to slide anywhere between San Francisco and L. Arturo left the show.
