List of Sliders episodes |
The sliders arrive on a world where profit is encouraged and the population is overworked and uptight. While there, Arturo is declared a "fracture" - having a mental breakdown. He is brought into an elaborate theme park and brainwashed into believing he is a famous detective on the trail of Jack the Ripper.
Arturo's assumed persona "Reginald Doyle" is a hybrid of detective novelists Reginald Hill (author of the Dalziel and Pascoe series) and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (author of the Sherlock Holmes series).
