Who says it isn't every teenage boy's fantasy to have a robot? A girl robot. Well perhaps if that robot's mission is to wipe you off the face of the Earth it might change your mind. The second season of The Sarah Connor Chronicles started this week with a bang.
Some glitch in the system caused Cameron ( Summer Glau ) to suddenly turn on John Connor ( Thomas Dekker ). As most Terminator fans would agree, once a Terminator has its sights set on you, your number is up. That's that. End game.
With Cameron in hot pursuit ( and in bad need of facial reconstruction to which she aptly responds with a staple gun ) of John and Sarah Connor ( Lena Headey ), the two find sanctuary in a small church. But Cameron eventually follows the blood trail left by an injured John. John and Sarah must escape to a waiting warehouse where they trap Cameron between two trucks. John is able to reluctantly pull the chip from Cameron's head even as she pleads with him to stop and professes her love for him.
Ahhhh. Isn't that sweet? She loves him. The terminating, death-stalking robot loves him. Get a grip, John.
Meanwhile, Agent James Ellison ( Richard T. Jones ) is spared from his untimely demise in the face of the mass extinction of his FBI response team at the hands of the bad terminator, Cromartie ( Garret Dillahunt ).
Lastly, now that Catherine Weaver ( Shirley Manson ), the new head of ZeiraCorp has The Turk what's going to happen? Most likely anything she wants. She just happens to be a T-1001.
This series is a favorite of mine and I'll continue to be a rabid fan as long as Fox continues to put it on the air.
