I thought the writers said they weren't turning this show into a Terminator of the week show? So far this season that's exactly what it's been, with the exception of this episode (and I suppose you could argue it actually was a "Terminator of the week" episode.
John always had help from another Terminator though, except when they (re)captured Cameron in "Samson and Delilah". Outside that, he has always had to run away from Terminators, from the T1000 to Cromartie. Now, he is going to take one of the T888's without Cameron's or Arnie's help (but with Derek's, I suppose)."How do you stop an unstoppable killing machine (which you've already done several times before)?"
