I had planned on waiting for you with Derek's sniper rifle. Pulled the trigger, solve about 50% of my problems. One shot. Do you know how bad I would've felt?
Very bad?
Not bad at all. But I know someone who would have felt bad. Someone who would have never forgiven me if I’d have done that. I don't know what to do with you. You know what the stakes are. You know why we're here. You know what this means. And yet here I stand, burning what's left of an endoskeleton I thought we'd burned months ago.
I needed spare parts.
I don't care what you need, because this is not about you.
No, it’s not about me. It’s about John. You’re concerned for his safety.
You bet I am.
From Skynet. From me.
Maybe. Maybe especially you.
We’re all a threat. We’re all a threat to John. He worries about us. It makes him vulnerable. He cares.
I am not John's problem.
John is John’s problem. Humans are the problem. There’s only one way for him to be safe. That’s to be alone.
What kind of life is that?
John's life. Someday.
