Tonight's Episode Of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles [09-29-2008]...

[Zim Hosein]

Cameron delves into her past after a software glitch lands her in a halfway house with no memory of her identity. Elsewhere, Agent Ellison probes Catherine Weaver's background on the heels of a meeting between the lawman and the Zeira Corp. CEO.

Episode #0204, "Allison From Palmdale."

How is Cameron having flashbacks of what I'm guessing was a human?

What was it? "Hey sweetie"? :laugh:

Interesting episode. Like how it gave us the history of Allison/Cameron.

Very good episode. So now we kinda know who Cameron was. One can only guess her previous relationship with John.

She has said that she loves him.

Is this the one with Shirley Manson?

Most of them have had her.

i was hoping somebody would answer this question.

overall it was a good episode. i want to see more of the future. i thought that their idea of using an aircraft carrier as a prison was good.

so when is john going to toy with her head again?

So the endoskeloton we saw that was interrogating Allison in the beginning, was that the machine that became Carmen by the end of the show?

Was she lying when she said that she and a few other wanted peace? Or was she telling the truth and thought that John was the one perpetuating the war?

This show is gaining on Heroes for my favorite show on TV IMO.

Yes (but it's Cameron, not Carmen), Yes, No.

At the end for a moment I thought she was still in Kill John Connor mode and simply didn't remember that John Baum was John Connor, and was trying to use Baum to get to Connor. But then the preview of the next episode made no allusions to that, so probably not.

As for the flashbacks, they must be flashbacks of her conducting the interrogation of Allison, which makes them unusual for TV in that what we saw visually did not show her actual point of view.

I hope next episode there is some explication of what went wrong, and that she explains in detail to John how to fix it. I find it very odd that she would suddenly lose her recent memory, but regain memory that was wiped when she was reprogrammed for the resistance. She was very good at emulating emotion without her recent memories, as if her basic infiltration software was very advanced at emotional modeling. I was surprised that she can actually cry. More Cameron back story is good.

Now that's one way to get the name you really want when you are born...

Just finished watching the DVR. That was a pretty wicked episode. Not exactly sure where they will go with it, but it is showing a pretty high value production now.

 

[Gigantopithecus]

Just watched it online. Show keeps getting better.

Amen to that, I love the new storyline with Cameron and her flashbacks. This show's characters are all full of win. That was crazy though at the end when he asked her where she got the necklace from...

I'm glad the season is now picking up steam. Kinda like last season, I guess. I only hope it's just as good, and not filled with nonsensical BS for sake of the "WTF factor."

I'd like more development between John and his uncle, like the final 2 episodes in season 1. Those were some good moments.

I'd like to see him hit that booty.


Oh wait, was that out loud.

Is the little girl at the end a child sized Terminator; or, the child of the person that Manson killed and assumed the identity of?

My guess is that the person the T-1000 is impersonating had a kid, and she just 'adopted' her after it offed the original.

And is something else on Monday at 8pm that I don't know about? I don't see much competition so what's with ratings...

Chuck is on at 8:00

im thinking a little known program called 'monday night football' is probably taking a big ol' bite out if its male viewers demographic.

edit: and not to exclude the ladies, 'dancing with the stars'.

I found this episode to be a little disappointing. For being a t800 or whatever super advanced robot, Cameron sure has alot of bugs.

I agree Imp and IIRC correctly, the liquid metal terminators can only mimic something of a similar size and we have yet to see any "baby" terminators, but that could change right?

not to mention that sci-fi shows are traditionally disasters when it comes to ratings.
