Landing in a desert, the Sliders search for signs of civilization. They locate an archaeological dig, headed by Dr. Jack Bigelow (Ken Jenkins), a paleontologist, and Gwen Palmer (Elizabeth Lackey), his student assistant. Bigelow says they are excavating an ancient site. The Sliders notice that their tools and methods are old-fashioned, and they are assisted by workers who are as simple as those who toil in Egyptian ruins. The desert they have found themselves in is known as the Badlands, and Bigelow welcomes them to stay as long as they help him and his students with the work. He leads them to a cave to show them what he has uncovered so far, and they realize with shock that it is the Chandler Hotel, covered with centuries of dust.
