Sarah Connor [To injured Cameron]: You all put back together, Tin Man?
All S1
S1 E15Unfinished Business
You’ve reached the future leader of mankind, may take me a little while to get back to you, but leave a message anyway.
[Sarah buying fake IDs from Carlos]
CCarlos
So I’m gonna give you what you need.
Thank you.
CCarlos
20 thousand.
Sarah Connor [Surprised]: What? I don’t have that…
CCarlos
20 thousand, that’s the family discount for doing hard time, especially for someone who’s been dead for 8 years.
That’s extortion.
CCarlos
War on Terrorism make this the front line, lady. Some raghead gets fake paper down here, we’ll all going to Guantanamo. 9/11 doubled prices overnight.
9/11, what’s that?
[Carlos and his gang stared at each other awkwardly]
Were you gonna kill that cop? [Cameron stares at her] Don’t answer that, don’t wanna know…We need rules, aren’t you suppose to take orders or something like that?
I do, from John.
…From John, so if I tell John to forbid you…
Not this John.
…Not this John, aren’t they the same?
Not yet.
John has a high level of stress.
Genetics are a bitch.
[Cameron kills Enrique while he tries to explain his reputation as a police informant]
Why would you do this? Didn’t you hear what he said, we don’t know, we don’t know…
He was possibly lying.
Possibly? You just executed him on possibly? He had a family! Why would you do this?
Because you wouldn’t.
[Sarah slaps Cameron with a pistol]
Sarah Connor [Angrily]: How do you know what I would and would not do? You don’t know me, you don’t know me! And you don’t know my son, not John, not my Johnny. You don’t know what I would and wouldn’t do, I don’t even know what I would and wouldn’t do. I wake up this morning and you tell me…I don’t know anything anymore, I don’t even remember what my name is…
Cameron [Obliviously]: Sarah Connor.
My dad's always a hero. And he's always dead.
Sarah Connor [Monologue]: “Know thyself.” John once told me it’s inscribed on the front of the temple of Apollo. The entire quote is, “Know thyself and thou shall know all the mysteries of the gods and of the universe.” That’s quite a mouthful. My version is this, “Know thyself because what else is there to know?” People hide secrets, time is a lie, the material world can disappear in an instant. It has and it will again. Our identities change. Our names, the way we look, how we act and speak. We’re shape-shifters. There is no control, no constant, no shelter but the love of family and the body God gave us, and we can only hope that that will always be enough.
[John watches Cameron applying makeup]
Still, it’s not exactly like brain surgery or anything, it’d be pretty funny if you were some sort of advanced cybernetic intelligence, yet stumped by a stick of eyeliner.
No, it’s not a brain surgery...[Looking at the eyeliner]...it would have to be a lot sharper.
[John kisses Sarah on the forehead]
We can handle it.
[Sarah notices Cameron is trying to copy John]
Don’t you kiss me…or anyone else!
Okay, blend in.
Blend in.
JCJohn Connot
Yeah, I mean don’t seem like a freak…you know what I mean right?
Freak. Weirdo. Kook. Oddball. Crackpot. Strange duck. Weird potato. Nut? [pause] I’ve been reading the dictionary. I don’t sleep.
You won’t fool anyone.
I fooled you.
[Cameron repeatedly sets off metal detector]
Excuse me, this is my sister.
Security Guard [Impatiently]: Extra credit for you.
Look, she’s got a metal plate in her head…really, it’s a big one.
[Security guard scans Cameron's head]
I fell, hard.
[Tarissa Dyson points out one possible creator of the Skynet]
TDTarissa Dyson
Is he going to die too? Is that what happens now, he dies?
I don’t know. I hope not.
TDTarissa Dyson
Well, if he does, just make sure it matters, make sure it’s not in vain.
No one dies in vain.
[Examining the murder scene at the resistance fighter’s safe house]
James Ellison [Pointing to the electrified safe]: Oh yeah, you see this everyday. You didn’t find that curious? Why would anyone wire a safe directly into the power?
Why is the sky blue Ellison? Don’t overthink it. Those guys were druggies; they're not rocket scientists, not terrorists. Your guys sold my guys paper, my guys whack your guys to cover their tracks. Go back to your office, your desk misses you.
Right, good one.
