* OMINOUS MUSIC CHILD LAUGHS LAUGHTER ECHOES METAL CREAKS WIND HOWLS SARAH CONNOR: 3 billion human lives ended on August 29, 1997. The survivors of the nuclear fire called the war Judgement Day. They lived only to face a new nightmare ` the war against the machines. SOUND OF LASER SHOTS Aaarrrrgh! The computer which controlled the machines, Skynet, sent two Terminators back through time. Their mission - to destroy the leader of the human resistance, John Connor ` my son. BOMB BLASTS 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 at John 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.

See, we spent a lot of time in Nicaragua and places like that. For a while there, she was with this crazy ex-Green Beret guy. Running guns. Then there were other guys. She'd shack up with anybody she could learn to teach me how to be this 'great military leader'. Then she gets busted and it's like, "Sorry, kid, your mom's a psycho. Didn't you know?"

Who's responsible? The man most directly responsible is Miles Bennett Dyson. Who is that? He's the director of Special Projects at Cyberdyne Systems Corporation. Why him? In a few months, he creates a revolutionary type of microprocessor. Go on. Then what? In three years, Cyberdyne will become the largest supplier of military computer systems. All stealth bombers are upgraded with Cyberdyne computers, becoming fully unmanned. Afterwards, they fly with a perfect operational record. The Skynet Funding Bill is passed. The system goes on-line on August 4, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defence. Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14am Eastern Time, August 29. In the panic, they try to pull the plug. Skynet fights back. Yes. It launches its missiles against their targets in Russia. Why attack Russia? Aren't they our friends now? Because Skynet knows that the Russian counter-attack will eliminate its enemies over here. Jesus! How much do you know about Dyson? I have detailed files. I want to know everything.

SARAH: Watching John with the machine, it was suddenly so clear. The Terminator would never stop. It would never leave him. And it would never hurt him, never shout at him or get drunk and hit him, or say it was too busy to spend time with him. It would always be there and it would die to protect him. Of all the would-be fathers who came and went over the years, this thing, this machine, was the only one who measured up. In an insane world, it was the sanest choice.

Motherfucker, it's all your fault. What? I'm not gonna let you do it. (Whispers) Shh. (Sobs quietly) Shh. (Sobs) VEHICLE APPROACHES Shit! We're too late! Check them. (Moans) Look at me, Mom. Are you hurt? Look at me. I almost... I almost... (Cries) It'll be OK. You're gonna be OK. We'll figure something out, OK? (Sobs) Promise. You came here to stop me? Yeah, I did. I love you, John. I always have. I know. Clean penetration. (Groans in pain) No shattered bone. You hold here. Compression should stop the bleeding. Who are you people? Show 'em. Danny. Danny, I want you to come with me right now, OK? TENSE MUSIC (Gasps) Oh! Oh, God! (Weeps) Oh, God. (Screams) Oh, my God! (Whispers) Oh my God. Now listen to me very carefully. Nuclear winter effects cause massive cooling. Long-term effects... SARAH: Dyson listened while the Terminator laid it all down. Skynet, Judgement Day. The history of things to come. It's not every day that you find out you're responsible for three billion deaths. He took it pretty well. I feel like I'm gonna throw up. You're judging me on things I haven't even done yet. Huh. How were we supposed to know? Yeah. Right. How were you supposed to know? Men like you built the hydrogen bomb. Men like you thought it up. You think you're so creative. You don't know what it's like to really create something. To create a life. Feel it growing inside you. All you know how to create is death... Mom. ...and destruction. MOM! We need to be a little more constructive here, OK? We still have to stop this from happening. But I thought... Aren't we changing things? I mean, right now? Changing the way it goes. That's right. There's no way I'll finish the new processor. Not now. Forget it. I'm out of it. I'll quit Cyberdyne tomorrow. That's not good enough. No one must follow your work. Right. All right. Then...we have to destroy all the stuff at the lab. The files, the disk drives. Everything. Everything here. Everything. I don't care. The chip. Do you know about it? What chip? It's kept in a vault at Cyberdyne. It's from the one like you. The CPU from the first Terminator. It's from the one like you. The CPU from the first Terminator. Son of a bitch! I knew it! They told us not to ask where they got it. It was scary stuff. Radically advanced. It didn't work, but it gave us ideas, took us in new directions. Things we would've never thoug... All my work was based on it. It must be destroyed. Right. Right. Can you get us in, past Security? I think so, yeah. When? Now? SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC SARAH: The future, always so clear to me, had become like a black highway at night. We were in uncharted territory now, making up history as we went along. Hi. Ah... Carl, right? Uh...friends from outta town. I just thought I'd... Hi. Take 'em upstairs and show 'em around. Mr Dyson, you know the rules concerning visitors in the lab. I need written authorisation... I insist. Don't even think about it. Come on. It's OK. It takes two keys to open the vault. They have to be turned simultaneously. The other one's in a locker at the security station. Gibbons? Gibbons, come on, man! You can't leave the desk like that. Shit. Gibbons... (Moans) Oh, shit! DOOR BEEPS OK. SECURITY PAD BUZZES My card should access this thing. BUZZING REPEATS What? What is it? Damn it! The silent alarm's been tripped. It's neutralised all the codes in the entire building. Nothing will open anywhere now. We have to abort. No. We'll go all the way. OK? You guys get started on the lab. I can open this. Think it's that guy from the mall. It IS! Yeah. Him and the woman. Look, just send everything you got in the area right now. Personal entry code for the lab. It may still work. SECURITY PAD BUZZES It's no good. Let me try mine. John, fire in the hole! ALARM SOUNDS Wait! You can't go in there. The fire's set off the halon system. You have to wait until the gas clears. Put this on. * All right. Let's get to work.

But it's something I can never do. Goodbye. SIZZLING (Sobs) SARAH: The unknown future rolls toward us. I face it for the first time with a sense of hope. Because if a machine ` a Terminator ` can learn the value of human life,... maybe we can too.
