TSCC-S2 end.  
So I had slacked on the watching of Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles since it came back on after 1.13-Earthlings. I had wanted to catch up to catch the finale but I didn't make time. Well when I started seeing all the icons from the finale (and that it could be the series finale) around I decided to get my but in gear and finished 1.14-21.

And in doing so I acquired some thoughts, and a large amount of ranting for the finale...

TSCC S2 - 1.14 "The Good Wound" thru 1.21 "Born to Run"

I fucking LOVE the Good Wound. Kyle (though she still calls him Reese like in the movie) being there to guide her through and be her conscience, and her able to to tell him what she's been through and about their son. Was amazing. And the end with the tree and the photo and the kiss. And Derek showing up in his place at the morgue. Ahhh! To perfect. Made me want to watch the original again.

I love John and Cameron's growing relationship, and sexual tension. Oooo baby. Like uhh, when they were fixing her arm, and then when she made him the locket. And then when he asks her if she killed Riley, twice. Awe man.

I loved That Cameron told Derek about the baby he lost with Jesse. I always love there scenes, and after holding a gun to her chin he later thanked her and told her it was the right thing to do.

And then they're saving Savannah from the terminator and with one shot, inbetween the head, he's dead. He's gone, cause they don't shoot to miss. And they didn't even put any emphasis on it. It was like any other gun shot. The only emotion was from John, and then they just left him there. I knew there was a reason they were visiting his brothers grave, cause that's where he was gonna end up. Grrr I'm so angry. I LOVED when B.A.G. signed on, and I loved that he was John's uncle, a Reese, a connection to his real father that he never knew. I'm so mad they just killed him off! I don't care if they knew this was the end or not!

The finale. OMG.

Sarah's arrested again. But of course she's gonna get out. All the Cam and John time, love it. Especially when tells him he knows she isn't going to let him break his mother out, so he starts asking her about whether being around the metal so long is what could make his mother sick. And you can see the wheels turning, excuse the pun, as to whether he's right, that she might be broken again.

And then Ellison asks her the message, and she says she doesn't know what it means, but asks him to leave, twice. So when she asks John if he upset him, he's all "Upset me? I think he upset you..." Haha, that was awesome.

And then him waking up to her watching him sleep, mentioning how his mother did that and he hates it. And the lighting in that room when she goes on about how he has to understand how that body works, is absolutely soft and gorgeous. And then she's all stripping and he's watching and she lays on the bed and tells him to get ontop of her and has him cut her open and then reach in under her chest plate and their all close ontop of eachother. It's like robot intercourse or something. Haha. Gotta love it. And how he was still ontop of her for an awkward moment and she's all, yeah, gotta go. That's code for "you can take you hand out of me now..." Lol.

So Cam gets her glory moment as she busts the prison up in order to get Sarah out and Johns driving the getaway as his mother scolds him and he's all, "Bad John, ground me..." Haha.

John asking if she's sick, and then before he walks to the elevator says I love you. That felt more like a goodbye, this is our last type deal.

John, Ellison, and Sarah in the elevator, Cam in the car because they didn't have coins for the meter, and Ellison asking if they're armed, I love it.

They meet Mrs. Weaver and it bugs me they can't tell shes terminator right from the start. But it doesn't take long for her to reveal it, to protect them. Wtf is she playing at. Weaver starts refering to John Henry as her son and hopefully Cam hasn't killed him yet cause they need her John for Sarah's John to survive.

Nope, she hasn't cause she's in the chair, chipless. John's frantic about it. She gave him the chip? Wtf. "I'm sorry John." AHH!

Ellison is still shocked over Weaver, seriously dude, how many times did she have to act emotionless and inhumane for you to get it.

So John Henry's in a "when" and she's firing up the Turk that was from the way beginning. John's all set to go but Sarah says they can't and starts backing out. John's stunned, he has to go, "He has her chip, he has HER." But Sarah just shakes her head and is out of the bubble. WTF! How could she leave him. Seriously? She said she'll stop it but what about staying with your son, protecting him! WTF! Seriously.

So Weaver and John go through, not Cams body though, and Weaver gets clothed fast but John has to run to pick up a jacket from a bunk. And it looks all refugee and smashed, it's obviously a war zone, after j-day.

They start to leave and are caught but Weavers disappeared and John pleads with them that he's human, not a metal. And you hear a voice tell them to stop and HELLS YEAH! It's DEREK! I knew there was a reason they didn't make such a big deal out of his death, cause he was coming back some other way. By John going to the future. At first I couldn't tell if he knew John but then John's staring at him astounded and almost teary and says Derek but he's all like "Yeah..." So he tries to tell him he's John, John Connor and apparently none of them know that name. So fuck, apprently by going back he's not gonna lead the resistance now? Because then Derek says...


"You know what, I think you're gonna be famous. My brothers back and you're wearing his coat."

And I'm already throwing my hands up in the ear cause I know that means that Kyle is back too (apparently he was never sent back and died either)! And sure as shit he's walking up behind John. This is a different reunion though cause John's never met his father (other than little boy Kyle) and as he stares at him in disbelief Kyle gives him and confused/almost knowing look. That's not all. Coming up behind Kyle, who I guess is still his right hand, is Cam. But she's smiling and petting the dog. So is it Allison? He can't help but stare and smile that she's there and alive as she gives him a slightly confused look too but also still looking like Kyle in that they must know they have some connection to this boy.

And Sarah's "I love you too" being heard through the spot where they appeared. Just made me mad at her even more! AHHH!

And already back at the part where Sarah stepped out of the bubble I had started ranting and raving about how they couldn't fucking end the series this way. As I was in the middle of finishing the last like 4 eps I read the Cancellation news article that said they're not on the lineup but it's still not official. WTHELLO! People! I need to see the rest of this. I want some KYLE/JOHN/DEREK-FATHERLY/SON/UNCLE time! And JOHN/CAMERON-ALLISON time/sex. AHHH!

Okay that ends my very ranty raving. Ahh. OMG. I need like. This now. It's like crack at this point.

This has also prompted me to do a "The Good Wound - Sarah/Kyle" picspam as well as a John/Cam picspam. Because now that the seasons over, and not knowing if it'll be back, I need to keep myself busy with something terminesque.

hee, loved your rant, you obviously thought pretty much the same as me :D

I do understand why Sarah left though, with John going, Cameron gone and Derek dead, there was no-one else left to stop it
Jen Jen: TSCC-kyle/sarah[info]rogue_missy on April 16th, 2009 04:16 pm (UTC)
Haha, thanks. Thats good to hear!

That is true, I understand it in that way. And Sarah's not willing to risk the mission for the metal. And that by staying back she is trying to protect him still, it's just like, YOU LEFT HIM ALONE. AHHH. Lol. And with that "terminator bitch" running around. Haha.

i actually liked the fact that she left him
john needs to step up to the plate as the leader
throughout most of the first and second seasons, he was a neglectable character
by leaving john, sarah is letting him grow up
although she has expressed fears that he would leave her in the pilot
Jen Jen: TSCC-john/cam[info]rogue_missy on April 17th, 2009 04:53 am (UTC)
That's very true. I kind of thought like that for a minute but I was too crazy wacked at the moment to run with it. Lol.

That's right. Maybe she thinks if she leaves him first he can't leave her.

I kind of got the feeling with the remarks that was made about Sarah being sick or losing weight, etc etc that Sarah knew she had cancer after all so she also didn't go to the future, because she knew she was going to die. I was kind of upset with her that she left John like that and I also would have liked for her to see Kyle, but at the same time, Sarah Connor in the entire franchise was always a character that was a part of the past, not the future. She wouldn't have belonged there at all and it would have been a jump the shark moment, or at least I think so.

Oh and ME TOO - I want to see some Kyle/John/Derek interaction and possibly John/Allison!

That's probably the best way I've heard it justified. It's very true, through it all it's never been about her being in the future during the resistance, simply about how she raised John and he leads them.

I know!
