Whoa...A+. Best episode of the season--and perhaps the series--so far.
I loved the multiple-viewpoint storytelling; it maintained tension and mystery throughout. The reference to <i>T2</i> at the end with Sarah losing control was a great touch. And for once, Riley wasn't annoying.
Everybody wins! Well...except Cromartie, that is.

I voted Excellent. The John stuff was a little dull but the action was great and the story was advanced well. We got a little sneak peak into Cam and John's relationship in the future. Can't wait for next week!
Above Average, thanks solely to the second half of the episode. John's stupidity was dull but the second half...awesome. We even get an old-school Sarah freak out at the end.
RIP, Cromartie. You will be missed.

In one sweep they turn Cromartie into a terminator of the week with how quickly they disposed of him
I was thinking Once Upon a Time in Mexico, but yeah. That's the spirit. The taking down of Cromartie in the church was nicely shot. No pun intended. That's the end of him right?
That last scene with Sarah smashing the chip was another good moment. It was very much in the spirit of Sarah and John's part in the Terminator saga, capturing everything they're going through.
I also have to say that John is lucky to have a pretty hot blonde who's willing to stick by him no matter what. I wonder what'll become of her. I also couldn't stop thinking that they need to get it on. I mean John could get killed any day now. He should at least get that in. Pun intended.

"Cum with me, I wanna live."
(I apologize in advance for that one...)
I got that impression too: she seemed vaguely panicked. Another piece to the chip damage vs. nascent emotion debate?
And as for Cromartie, I don't think he was turned into a Terminator of the Week; he got a great send-off. Plus, if his endoskeleton disappears by next week's episode, is he really "dead"? Chipless, yes, but not completely gone.
What was Cameron using to dispatch Cromartie? Some sort of grenade launcher? A shotgun doesn't seem powerful enough for the damage she inflicted.
Ill miss you Crommie! *sniff* 
No, it was much too short and snub-nosed to be a Barrett M82 .50 cal BMG sniper rifle. Possibly she was using something that can mount on a rifle. I'll have to freeze-frame upon rewatching.
Cromartie is about to become the basis of the AI project the T-1001 is working on.

ok, so i missed it. does anyone know what time fox.com has the newest ep up? i'm anxious to see it if it really is as good as you all say
EXCELLENT. 
John actually manned up and knocked out the jailer.

I enjoyed how each character's story was told and how Agent Ellison was finally woven in to meet up with Sarah and John.
Plus, Cromartie knows Cameron's chip is damaged.

There are shotgun slugs powerful enough to do the job. It could have been a frag-12 or something similar in nature.

I thought we got a really great episode tonight. I enjoyed the Pulp Fiction style focus on certain characters. I thought they took down Cromartie a little bit too easily, but other then that it was a great episode.
I'll miss Cromartie. He was my favorite Terminator on the show.

But isn't the Frag-12 essentially a fin-stabilized mini-grenade?

Yeah, I made a mistake. It's not a slug, but works similar to one and fits in a similar shell casing. Still powerful enough to take down a terminator.
