Quotes
- Sarah Connor: When John was a child, the legends of the jungle were his fairytales. His favorite was the story of El Viejo del Monte, the old man of the forest, a merciless hunter who killed every animal in his path. El Viejo didn't eat his prey, he left it behind to rot in the soil. To teach him a lesson, the Gods turned him into a simisco, half-animal, half-man. He was condemned to defend the jungle for all eternity. This was El Viejo's punishment, this was his curse : to forever be vigilant, to forever protect.
....
- Sarah Connor: Make sure you get to the safe house before night. If you haven't been there before, it can be hard to find.
- Derek Reese: I can follow directions.
- Sarah Connor: Well, you can also make mistakes … wouldn't want anyone else getting hurt because of them.
- Cameron Phillips: 33-42-31 North, the safe house coordinates. It's in the desert. You like the desert.
- Sarah Connor: Things happen out there.
- Cameron Phillips: Things happen here too.
- John Connor: We're starting over. Whatever happened here... is no-one's fault.
....
- John Henry: Would you like to play a game? Engaging in imaginative play helps my development. This is Mt. Valmai, hiding place of the mask of life. The Toa protect the mask from the dark hunters.
....
- Savannah Weaver: The ducklings are sad because they can't play. Can't you change the rules to make them happy?
- John Henry: Yes. We can change the rules.
....
- James Ellison: Wait a minute, his demons?
- Matt Murch: Oh, duh...uh... yeah, his daemons, uh - D-A-E-M-O-N. It's a tech term for a program that runs in the background. All computers like John Henry have them. Daemons run the lights, daemons manage the elevators, or the security systems, all kinds of daemons everywhere.
- James Ellison: Okay, so what caused John Henry's daemons to go crazy?
- Matt Murch: That's the bad news … came from the outside.
- James Ellison: Cyber attack?
- Matt Murch: Which brings me to the really bad news, and by bad news I mean on a scale of 1 to 10 - 1 being a hangnail, 10 being Katrina, this is Katrina with a hangnail. Looks like someone managed to stuff malware down the throat of the most sophisticated AI in human history.
- Catherine Weaver: John Henry was infiltrated … probed.
- Matt Murch: Well, looks worse than that to me. It looks like someone out there wants to kill him.
....
- Charley Dixon: I got nothin' … Sarah. I got nothin' left to give you.
- Sarah Connor: Not for me. John.
- Charley Dixon: John? He seems like he's pretty full up with people takin' care of him.
- Sarah Connor: I don't trust any of them.
- Charley Dixon: Yeah, well … he's still got you … right? (Sarah takes his hand, gently placing it on her breast, squeezing until he understands ) Oh, Sarah … How long?
- Sarah Connor: I don't know. I found it a few days ago.
- Charley Dixon: Are you sure it's …
- Sarah Connor: I think so.
- Charley Dixon: How do you know?
- Sarah Connor: Cameron said when we jumped eight years through time, we jumped over my death.
- Charley Dixon: From cancer. (Sarah nods) If-if you jumped over it, then …
- Sarah Connor: It doesn't mean I don't … still get it, Charley. It doesn't mean it's not in me. And sometimes I think that the things I've done, maybe I've sped up the date … It's my fate, Charley.
- Charley Dixon: No, come here. (embraces her)
- Sarah Connor: It's my fate. There's nothing I can do.
