The Machines Will Rise
I'm back.
[Terminator]
John Connor is the leader of the worldwide resistance and
last hope for mankind.
[Terminator]
The future has not been written.
There is no fate but
what we make for ourselves.
I wish I could believe that.
My name is John
Connor, they tried to murder me before I was born,
when I was 13 they tried
again.
Machines from the future. Terminators.
All my life my mother told me the
storm was coming, Judgment Day,
the beginning of the war between man and
machines.
Three billion lives would vanish in an instant,
and I would lead what
was left of the human race to ultimate victory.
It hasn't happened,
no bombs
fell, computers didn't take control, we stopped Judgment Day.
I should feel
safe, but I don't,
so I live off the grid - no phone, no address, no one and
nothing can find me.
I've erased all connections to the past,
but as hard as I
try I can't erase my dreams, my nightmares.
[John Connor]
By the time Skynet became self-aware
it had spread into
millions of computer servers across the planet.
Ordinary computers in office
buildings, dorm rooms; everywhere.
It was software; in cyberspace.
There was no
system core; it could not be shutdown.
The attack began at 6:18 PM, just as he
said it would.
Judgment Day,
the day the human race was almost destroyed by the
weapons they'd built to protect themselves.
I should have realized it was never
our destiny to stop Judgment Day,
it was merely to survive it, together.
The
Terminator knew; he tried to tell us, but I didn't want to hear it.
Maybe the
future has been written.
I don't know; all I know is what the Terminator taught
me; never stop fighting.
And I never will.
The battle has just begun.
[John Connor]
Your future, my destiny, I want no part in it, I never
did.
[John Connor]
[John Connor]: Do you even remember me?
Sarah Connor?
Blowing up Cyberdyne?
Hasta la vista, baby?
Ring any bells?
[Terminator]: That was a different T-101.
[John Connor]: What, do you guys come off an assembly
line or something?
[Terminator]: Exactly.
[John Connor]: Oh man, I'm gonna have to teach you
everything all over again.
[John Connor]: So... she's an anti-Terminator Terminator?
You've got to be shitting me.
[Terminator]: No, I am not shitting you.
[Kate Brewster]: What exactly am I in this future of
yours?
[Terminator]: You're John Connor's spouse and
second-in-command.
[Kate Brewster]: No, I... [looks at John]
[John Connor]: What?
[Kate Brewster]: You're a mess.
[John Connor]: Hey, you're not exactly my type, either.
