Terminator: Vick's Chip

"So much danger in this world is hidden behind masks. We tell our children stories of good and evil, while knowing is not that simple. True evil doesn't give us time to fight, or to be afraid. We keep our heads down, never bothering to look behind the masks. And in doing so, we resign ourselves to terrible fates we can never see coming."

- Sarah Connor

Quotes

 * John Connor: You scared the hell out of me. How long you been sitting there?
 * Cameron Phillips: A little while. (About the video) That was effective. What he did, when he touched her lips.
 * John Connor Effective?
 * Cameron Phillips: I could see that she liked that.
 * John Connor: What are you doing? (Cameron shows him her fingernails.) No. When you say things like that, what are you doing?
 * Cameron Phillips Just making conversation.
 * John Connor: Since when do you just make conversation?
 * Cameron Phillips: I don't know. It just seems like something I should do.
 * John Connor: Having Morris impersonate me with that cop was also something you should do, no matter what happened to him?
 * Cameron Phillips: Yes. But it wasn't a cop. It was Cromartie.

....
 * John Connor: So, do we do this a lot in the future? Sneak around in the dark?
 * Derek Reese: We do this a lot.

....
 * Derek Reese: I want you to hear this in no uncertain terms. Someday, one of these things is going to kill you.
 * John Connor: It's not gonna be this one.

....
 * Derek Reese: What I'm saying is what I've been saying, John. She can't be trusted. No matter how she acts on the outside we have no idea what's going on in there.
 * John Connor: Well, I could say the same thing about you.
 * Derek Reese: Who showed you my safe house? She did. Who else knew about it? Nobody. Where are my men? In the morgue.
 * Cameron Phillips: I didn't give the T-888 the safe house location.
 * Derek Reese: Prove it.

....
 * John Connor: Look, since you obviously have no clue how to read this garbage, would you mind making a Seven-Eleven run or something? Pick up some burritos, chocolate milk. It'd mean a lot to me.

....
 * Cameron Phillips: I don't understand your need to find her. She's dead.
 * Sarah Connor: That's because you don't value human life.
 * Cameron Phillips: But she's not life, she's just a body! Bones and meat! (Sarah glares at her) Was that bad to say?
