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

well apparently newsgroups are reporting that Obama's transition team is picking out potential people to join his Cabinet. Among the names being approached: Gov. Schwarzenegger as Secretary of Energy.

Coincidence? I think not
Care to give some more info about this (under code, of course).
I know that
Cameron is supposed to be having some kind of secret "nightlife", but this could go in all kinds of different directions, even as pure comic relief, with the little info I've seen. Do you know more, NX1701?
Is your sister OK now, by the way?
But even when Sarah was with him, John didn't suffer. I wish James Cameron had kept in that scene where he convinces her not to destroy Arnold's chip.
Anyone thinks it may be possible that Cromartie, in this scene, was not the T888 we know and love, but it was the T1001 impersonating him (impersonating Laszlo in turn)? The weapon used to kill the Ellison T888 did seem like something the T1000 would use - she could form it from her own body, and it would have all the incredible properties from the liquid metal, capable of punching through the T888's armor. Weaver also seemed to be very much on top of things; she knew a Terminator was involved and her comments at the end about Job (which could be interpreted as a subtle threat to Ellison's loved ones) sounded like she may have been testing him, for some purpose. I do think Ellison is getting very suspicious; he didn't tell her everything about what had happened.
He may have another reason for not telling Sarah, though. If he did, he would have to admit about Cameron's "little glitch" in "Allison of Palmdale", which allowed Chromartie to find the house. And he wants to protect Cameron from Derek and/or Sarah getting the idea that keeping her around is too big a risk. For that matter, I think his outburst at Cameron was fuelled partly by him knowing that Cameron was a bigger security risk, in this case, than Riley. Cameron's glitch led Chromartie to him, but he can't tell that in Sarah's hearing so he resorts to "you tried to kill me".
I think John is way out of line blaming Sarah for Calrissian, though. The guy deserved to die anyway. OTOH, Sarah should have allowed him to see Riley, so no secrecy was needed. Completely isolating John is not the smart way to go either, especially if they don't want him to rely on Cameron for company.
It's in the extended version, which was/is available commercially so it's part of the official universe, I suppose.
That's something I hadn't considered, and a very good idea. I maintain that it was Cromartie however. He (Cromartie) seems to be keeping a very watchful eye on Ellison lately. Also that means that Weaver would have needed to "touch" Cromartie to mimic him and I'm not sure the two have ever come in contact.
I'm not sure of that either - she definitely touched him in this episode though (the detective shaking Ellison's hand when he got released), so from now on she can mimic him, if she couldn't before.
It's possible Cromartie has been watching Ellison for some possible clue for the Connors, but he was on the road a lot this episode, so he certainly doesn't watch Ellison all the time.
If you really want to know who that promo is refering too, I found this article:

Which has some behind the scenes spoiler photos that give away the outcome. Again, big spoilers.

Finally watched this episode last night and rated it Above Average. I've said it before, Cromartie is watching Ellison as he (Cromartie) believes Ellison will lead him to the Connors.
Every time Cromartie forces a smile I giggle a bit. He's a real hoot as a protagonist.

Agreed. I'm glad to see the show is fleshing out the Terminators a bit more than the films could. For me, watching Cromartie relentlessly hunt down the Connors is far more interesting than watching John's development and relationship with his mom, Cameron, Riley, etc...
My recommendations for the show. More screentime for Cromartie, Ellison, Weaver, and Derek. Cameron's still her badass self and interesting so keep her around. Send Sarah and John on a much needed vacation for a few episodes until the writers can figure out what to do with them.
I've said it before but John and Sarah are the two weakest characters on the show.
^ Such is often the case with the Main character(s).
Why is that the "Death Slot"?So, TSCC will move to 8pm Friday in February. Since Fox is putting the show in the death slot, it looks like Season 2 will be the final season.

Because of the vast number of shows that have been cancelled in the time slot.
I really liked this episode. In fact the scenes with John were the best and emotionally charged scenes of the series. I loved the way he just dropped the drill and talked about how Cameron had actually tried to kill him. I wasn't impresssed by Sarah so much.
Cromartie is growing on me more and more. I hope they keep him on the show as he is probably one of the few T-888s who can play a Terminator well.
