Above average for me. I really enjoyed it and Cromartie was great in this episode. To bad I think he is the one to buy it in the next episode.

God, I can't even come into these threads. Since when is it okay to post spoilers for un-aired episodes in a thread meant to discuss the one that just did? Some of us don't want to know!!:scream:
 
^ They say in the promo that someone will die so, technically, by the board rules for spoilers it counts as aired material. There are a lot of times that this happens (I did spoiler code mine though).
 
...possibly the cop who interrogated him. I say 'possibly' because the writers seem to be playing with us. Just because he utters the phrase "thank you for your assistance" while the creepy terminator music plays as he walks doesn't necessarily mean he is one for sure.

They showed him as he left the police station turn into Weaver.
 
^^^i was on the phone at the time and i must have gapped out...i'll have to re-watch that part again, my bad.:lol:
 
Well, I actually enjoyed this episode more than any other this season. Unfortunately, the subplot with Ellison was completely dependent on the two things I hate about this show -- terminator of the week and recreational time travel.

It'd be too bad if Cromartie isn't long for this show, because there would be a lot of interesting possibilities with his character development in a way that's much different than Cameron's.

An interesting plot, which probably wouldn't happen, would be for Cromartie to discover the T-1000's plot and decide to work with the Connors to stop her.

I'm not certain that Cromartie and Weaver aren't on the same side against the TOTWs. Given that the TOTWs have so far tried to kill one of Weaver's patsies and replace another (and, in light of that, they might also have been trying to blow up the nuclear plant more to frustrate her plans than those of the resistance), she doesn't seem to be operating with the support of the home office. And since Cromartie is trying to preserve one of Weaver's patsies...
 
above average
this show seems to be back in gear after afew straight weeks of good shows. this is th eprobably the closest i've come to giving a season2 ep an excellent, but that John emo whine shite at the end was dumb and made me cringe. Cromartie is the man. Probably my fav character after Derek. Loved how cameron just took it upon herself to blow away those kids at the end. Good stuff

This is the first time I've spoken up on this show and spoilers, but it's not the first time I've seen this. I read one or two episodes in advance that Sarah's ex's wife was going to be kidnapped, too. If it was in the preview that night, I can live with that, but I thought it might have been TWO weeks prior.
 
I'm torn between excellent and above average with this one. It did have a lot of really interesting stuff in it, mainly the Cromartie and Ellison storylines. While it didn't seem to have a huge impact on the storyline, the storyline with the Connors trying to get their stuff back was still pretty good. Although I do agree that John is starting to get kind of annoying. When the season started I was under the impression that we were going to be seeing him start to become the leader he will be in the future, but instead he's spent most of his time being the complete opposite. Although I guess we are still early in the season, so the change could still happen.

I have to admit I'm pretty curious to see where they are going with Derek and Jessi storyline. So far it seems to be kind of a side thing, but I have a feeling it won't stay that way the whole time she's around. Weren' they even hinting last week that she might be up to something? Same goes Cromartie. I'm wondering if perhaps he's getting a little to determined to kill Sarah and John.

I by no means intended to divulge any spoilers. The trailer for next week said that one of the characters dies, and my guess was Cromartie and I may be dead wrong. I have no inside info or anything I'm just a fan who watched th episode and the trailer. I don't feel that my behavior is any different than any one else in these discussion threads. If I offend I apologize.
 
Well, sorta average episode but I can tell they're building for something big. I wish John would stop being so EMO and they'd bring back the HS stuff that was gold.
 
I don't mind John being EMO. He still has a lot to learn, a lot to lose, and by god he has to get out from under his mothers wing. She babies him, and it'd no wonder he acts like a child. He struggling to gain his freedom, he doesn't know how, and the only future for him is what everyone tells him its going to be. I kinda feel sorry for the kid.

I really enjoyed that ep. Cameron killed those kids to protect the Connors, Sarah let the one go free out of compassion and because of it the kid will be tortured, murdered at the very least, and Cromartie now knows where they live. Did Sarah do the right thing? Did Cameron? Who ultimately decides? I like how they bring religion and belief into the show. It's all woven together really well.
 
I went with above average. I liked the fact that there was more continuity with previous episodes, even if it was brief. The character moments were great, especially the parts in the bowling alley.

I would guess that either Riley or Cromartie will be gone next week, possibly both.
 
I liked how Cromartie assured the kid that Sarah wasn't going to kill her... because he's gonna kill him. :devil:

T2 John had a more independent streak and took an active role in what his mother and the Terminator were doing. In this show though, he's a completely whining wimp.

Yeah, and his mother wasn't there to coddle him at that time. If you notice all shows about young heroes coming into their own start when the parents die.
Sarah, even though she has taught him many things, needs to either be dead(not gonna happen given the name of the show) or has to take a step back and let him be.
If you remember she dies in the past(future) maybe thats a turning point in JC's life if he were still in that timeline. Maybe thats what made him the future hero of the human race, her dying of cancer.
In this timeline she is still alive and he's a whiny emo brat.

Maybe it will be Riley, and her death will be the thing that changes John.

A very classy post, sir. Especially considering that you didn't do anything wrong. I just misunderstood. I greatly appreciate the effort. :)

No, the person who's character is killed off was at the ComicCon panel. Leven Rambin (yeah wrong spelling) wasn't at the panel.
