 Ironic Character Punishments 
 ThomasMalthus  Dec11/98 
I've been thinking about how Arturo and Wade were written off of the show. Arturo, who was the intellect of the team, got his intellect sapped by Colonel Rickman, who then proceeded to kill him. Wade, who talked with Quinn about the possibility of having a family in "Last of Eden" and told Rembrandt that she wanted to have a baby someday in "The Fire Within" ended up in a breeder camp. So, of the following which do you think would be the most ironic death/punishment for these Sliders characters:

Quinn
1. Dies of a weird STD he contracted from one of those women that he drooled all over in just about every season three episode.
2. Gets into an impossible situation and then, for once, is unable to get out of it. The other sliders, in another disappointing character drop episode, callously leave him behind.
3. Lynched by the locals on "Die Hard Wade Fan" Earth.

Maggie
1. Lands on "Hair Dye is Toxic" Earth. Nuff said.
2. Also lynched by the locals on "Die Hard Wade Fan" Earth.
3. After yet another "warm and fuzzy" scene, Maggie's pancreas goes into shock and she dies.

Colin
1. Dies piloting a nuclear submarine which he claimed was "just like my steam powered one back home."
2. Is killed by the Contraction Police on Grammar World.
3. Dies in a cruel accident involving running with scissors.
