I simply have to say this: It's a time honored tradition to have a Terminator shoot up a police station. I have a feeling that'll be happening again in this episode.

I could do without a police station shoot-out. But, if it means more actions scenes with Cameron, than I'll guess it will have to do.

There has been a sad lack of Terminator-on-LAPD violence in this series. Cameron has left, what? One cop bleeding in an alley somewhere? *shakes head* It is a sad commentary on terminator effectiveness when the sum total of their law-enforcement related violence is a single count of GBH (or whatever you call it down there).

Adam raised a Cain Perhaps a biblical reference? A Father raised a killer. Maybe it's something to do with Ellison and John Henry? I'm grasping at straws on this one. ;D It looks like John Henry will get "hacked" by an outside group, and I suppose he will act dangerously during that.

I feel it would be extremely rude not to. It is a tradition after all. <LOL> Cromartie did take out an entire HRT unit. That's got to count for something. And there were a goodly number of uniformed deaths in the Pilot. And Sheriff Dudly Do-Right/Do-Wrong in The Good Wound... oh wait, the missus shot him so that doesn't count, does it?

Cromartie slaughtered a ass load of Mexican Cops...I'm surprised that didn't start an international incident.

Okay, true, true. LOL.
But Cameron has been practically law-abiding when it comes to coppers. Where's the fun in that?
Actually, I'm wondering if John Henry won't turn against his "mom" and refuse to kill all humans....

I'm not sure "mom" wants to kill all humans. She doesn't need JH to be teached "ethics" for that, presumably.

I'm not sure "mom" wants to kill all humans. She doesn't need JH to be teached "ethics" for that, presumably. I'm not entirely sure she cares about ethics. I think she cares about stimulating John Henry's mind. That said, I have no idea what Robo-Mom wants with John Henry. Both Warrior-mom and Robo-Mom want to their offspring to fulfill their potential. In John's case, that means becoming a good man, with both the judgement and the principles to make the right decisions in tough times. But wtf does Weaver want for John Henry? When I first saw this title, I figured it had to refer to John Henry betraying Ellison's teachings, what with the old testament. But it could apply equally to all the parental relationships in the Sarah Connor Chronicles - Sarah and John, Sarah and Cameron, Weaver and John Henry, Ellison and John Henry, even John and Cameron - since Sarah more or less refuses to work to socialize Cameron (she thinks it's a waste of time) there's an aspect of John's relationship with Cameron that sees him acting in loco parentis to the robot, much as Derek did for Kyle. One way or another, I figure this epsiode deals with the human-robot dynamic. But, watching John Henry repeat Ellison's teachings in TITD, p1., raised the possibility that just as Sarah and John's relationship has hit a few snags this season, so too could Weaver and John Henry's. At the very least, that's a less troubling interpretation than a more literal take on the story, which would see either John or Savannah dead before episode's end.

I wonder if Sarah gets arrested, because she got caught snooping around Zeria corp looking for the 3 dots. Weaver and Sarah meet face to face, and exchange a few choice words. Weaver tells Ellison to hand Sarah over to the authorities. Ellison is then presented with the dilemma of letting her go free(behind Weavers back) of letting the authorities take her away, (because she's a threat to John Henry). He choices to hand her over. And, that is why John is so pissed at Ellison.

Hmm, sounds like it's going to be a good one! Undoubtedly though, it will leave us starving for the next episode...
