San Fran Gambling

The group lands on a world where the gambling mecca is located in northern California, not Las Vegas. You have mob bosses and competing crime families. The sliders land in the middle of a wedding between the two powerful families, and the focus is on Rembrandt. On this world, he is the Deputy FBI Director and leads the so-called Incorruptibles against crime, albeit with a pauper's budget. We even see a guest star appearance by Mel Torme, although tragedy strikes when the mob believes that he's working with Rembrandt. This was a good episode full of twists and turns. I enjoyed the ending, but was glad to see the group leave this corrupt world. At least it's a lesson on the dangers of extremely low taxes.
