This week's Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles blog will be extremely abbreviated because of the Monday Night Football game that I'm watching while imbibing a few beers (why couldn't the Philadelphia Eagles play during a repeat?). Hope there aren't many typos -haha! Next week's blog will be in my standard format.Sarah decides that the 'sanctuary' thing isn't working out, so she finds a house to rent (I predict that this house will be destroyed by the end of the season). My prediction almost becomes a reality as yet another time traveler “sent from the future by John” (man, I hate exposition for the newbies -check out the way 'crapped out' is explained) jumps through a window and dies, but not before warning them of the danger at a nuclear power plant. Sarah and Cameron get jobs at the plant so they can investigate Carl Greenway (OMG! It's Ryan Chappelle! Shame what happened to him! Why, Jack, why?), an official at the facility. They discover that if Greenway's precaut...

“We have to kill her, John”-Sarah Connor Picking up exactly where the season one finale left off, Cameron's Jeep 'splodes via a car bomb planted by Sarkissian and his man, who overpower Sarah and John in their attempt to find the missing hard drive. Cameron reactivates herself and seemingly comes to the Connor's rescue; however, Sarkissian is already 'deceased' when she enters the room. All is not well as Cameron draws her weapon on John -she is about to terminate him (b/c of damage to her CPU)! An explosion gives Sarah and John enough of a delay to escape Cameron. They jump out the second story window, are injured and escape via a stolen mini-van, which Sarah ends up crashing. The wounded pair hobble off until they seek sanctuary in a local church.Also picking up from the previous episode are Agent Ellison, Cromartie and the aftermath of the FBI massacre at the apartment complex. After this experience, apparently Ellison now believes Sarah (well..derr). Charley Dixon head...

To hear Summer Glau tell it, seeing Cameron get blown up in the Season 1 finale of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles never had her worrying about paying the next month's rent."I had an idea of what was going to happen in the next episode," she told me here on the set of the Fox series, "so I wasn't too upset about it." But as the cast grows and important characters become somewhat expendable — a major death is promised in the first few episodes of the new season — she allows, "I have a healthy respect for being on the show!"All told, Glau says T:SCC is "bigger" now that it's back (tonight at 8 pm/ET), saying, "I'm very proud of the work we've done so far."Also in this video: Glau reveals how she stays "really fit" for her role (at the 2:00 mark), shares her admiration for Lena Headey (2:40), and talks of getting teased by her boyfriend (3:50). — Matt MitovichRelated:• On the Set VIDEO: Thomas Dekker Warns, "No One Can Be Trusted"• Lena Headey VIDEO: Is...

In the first part of the two-hour season finale, Cromartie goes from school to school, checking the records of new students searching for John Connor. Derek surprises the Connors and Cameron when he produces Vick's chip that Cameron has not destroyed, contrary to what she had told them in the past. In order to disprove his accusation of mistrust about her, Cameron works with John to pull data off the chip, including a visual record of the cyborg. As it turns out, Vick was married to Barbara Chamberlain, the City Manager for Los Angles who is responsible for creating the advanced traffic system (Automated Real Time Traffic Exchange or ARTTE) for the city. Cromartie's search leads him to John and Cameron's high-school; however Cameron is able to trick him into thinking John is not a student there. Still upset over Andy Goode's death, Sarah convinces the others to search for what they think is Barbara's body from evidence in Vick's visual record. When they discover the body, it's not B...

In an episode that is chock full of references to the previous films, the main theme appears to be nature and duality of good and evil or rather, the soulful, feeling human versus the heartless, cold machine, and how each can mimic the other but never can truly be the same.Cameron acquires a police uniform and motorcycle, disables a portion of the city's power grid then uses the power outage and her disguise to easily enter the police station that is supposed to have the missing Terminator hand (from the episode, “Queen's Gambit”). Cameron discovers that the hand is not in the evidence room but in the possession of Agent Ellison. Sarah takes matters into her own hands (heh) by tracking down Agent Ellison. It seems that Ellison has not been just twiddling his thumbs (heh) as he has been continuing to piece everything together. He studies the video taped sessions of Sarah while she was in Pescadero State Hospital and even visits the institution, including her old room there....

While Derek is being treated for the gunshot wound he sustained from the Terminator in the previous episode, we are presented with a serious of flashbacks (flashforwards?) of his experiences in the future that led up to his teleportation to this time period. During this series of flashbacks, we meet Derek's brother, Kyle (for the first time in the series); Derek, Kyle and crew are captured in a failed mission after witnessing Terminators and later Hunter Killers transporting what appear to be aircraft engines; after being held captive, they are mysteriously allowed to escape and discover that their base of operations was destroyed; it is revealed that future Andy Goode was in fact responsible for the creation of Skynet and Derek was the one responsible for present-day Andy's murder; and finally Derek and Cameron did meet in the future (following along so far? Whew!) Back in the present, Charlie finally finds out the 'truth' about Sarah, John and much to his chagrin, Cameron.Comment...

“To win you must be patient, bold, calculating. And most of all: willing to sacrifice.”—Sarah ConnorAndy Goode contacts Sarah to invite her to a computer chess tournament that he has entered. Andy's new version of The Turk, the chess computer that Sarah destroyed when she burned down his house, is entered into the competition —the grand prize being is lucrative military contract. Chromartie, under the guise of Special Agent Kester, contacts Charlie Dixon to see if he has any information about the Connors. John and Cameron deal with the aftermath of the suicide at school. John again encounters Cheryl Weston whom he is told is “damaged goods.” Back at the chess tournament, Andy's computer loses the match much to the relief of Sarah, who was mulling over killing him.

“If you're gonna be a hero, you gotta learn how to drive stick.”—Sarah ConnorWhile John laments over the death of Jordan Cowon, Cameron discovers that Cromartie was able to make the trip ahead with them into the future via news footage from a cell phone camera (she doesn't sleep, after all). With a newspaper reports of an arson at a dock and the re-routing of coltan, a 'key element' in the construction of cyborgs, Cameron deduces that Cromartie is attempting to reconstruct or repair himself. The group decides to be pro-active, instead of running like John thinks his mother always wants to do, and intercept Cromartie as he picks up the coltan. At the docks, they discover that it is not Cromartie, who is busy getting some plastic surgery done, but rather another model Terminator that is programmed to stockpile the element for Skynet's future plans. John forces Sarah and Cameron's hand into helping secure the element and effectively dealing with the new Terminator. Crom...
