Plot hole: If Quinn has the timer that could be used multiple times without trouble, why couldn't he take back Remmy and Wade then come back and save the world in peril?
Sliders (1995)
1 plot hole in The Exodus (2) - chronological order
Other mistake: The Sliders discover the reverse-time issue when they notice that the clock on the wall is backward. However, in other shots, clocks look normal. Look carefully at the clocks on the judge's desk as the camera pans by.

Agent Lowell: That's Mallory all right. Busted twice for non-possession. Jumped bail a year ago and ran off to Mexico.
Damon: I heard he died of an under-dose.
Agent Lowell: Same here. I guess we were wrong, huh? It's a safe bet Mallory snuck back into the country to spread more of his anti-drug propaganda. A guy like that shouldn't be on the street.
Trivia: On the equation on Quinn's chalkboard, T squared ("T2") appears in several places, a nod to Tracey Torme, Co-director of the series.
Question: In the pilot episode, the wormhole physically travels to "capture" Quinn and bring him back to his own world, after his very first slide. How did the wormhole know where Quinn was?

Chosen answer: Remember at first Quinn's timer is working perfectly (it's only because they slide off the ice age world early that it begins to malfunction) & given Quinn's intellect he would have devised a way that he could open a wormhole near him so he wouldn't be trapped on that world for 29 years.
