The computerwhich controlled the machines, Skynet... sent two Terminators back through time. Their mission: To destroy the leader of the human resistance. John Connor, my son. The first Terminator was programmed to strike at me in the year 1984... before John was born. It failed. The second was set to strike atJohn himself... when he was still a child. As before, the resistance was able to send a lone warrior... a protector for John. It was just a question of which one of them would reach him first.

August 29, 1997, came and went. Nothing much happened. MichaelJackson turned 40. There was noJudgment Day. People went to work as they always do. Laughed, complained, watched TV, made love. I wanted to run through the street yelling... to grab them all and say, "Every day from this day on is a gift." Use it well." Instead, I got drunk. That was 30 years ago. But the dark future which never came still exists for me. And it always will, like the traces of a dream. John fights the war differently than it was foretold. Here, on the battlefield of the Senate... his weapons are common sense... and hope. Tie me, Grandma. Tie me! - How's that? - Thank you, Grandma. The luxury of hope... was given to me by the Terminator. Because if a machine can learn the value of human life... maybe we can too.

I wish I could've met my real dad. You will. Yeah, I guess. When I'm, like, 45, I think. They sent him back through time to 1984. Man.

Please. He's in great danger. He's naked without me. If I could make a phone call... I'm afraid not. Not for a while. I don't see any choice but to recommend to the review board... that you stay here for another six months.

It's helped me to have a goal... something to look forward to. What is that? Well, you said... that if I showed improvement after six months... you would transfer me to the minimum security wing... and I could have visitors.
