[QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by OverRon: [qb] If they should avert judgement, one thing I thought was that JC would still have to get the time travel working and send back terminators to try and kill himself and send Kyle back. He'd have to protect the timeline so that he would be born and that past events did happen, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to beat skynet. [/qb][/QUOTE]Actually, how do we know something like that isn't happening anyway? Kyle went back under the impression that they'd won and Skynet was effectively beaten. He may have been impressionable and prone to fancying his boss' mother, but I don't think he'd be easily fooled into such a viewpoint. He could have been lying to Sarah but what would be the point? Skynet's end explains why Derek & co. were freed. . . The deleted scenes in T2 suggest that rather than destroying Skynet's time machine after sending Kyle back, John kept it to then send Uncle Bob back (and who knows what/who else?). The series has now ret-retconned that to, he destroyed Skynet's, but has now built his own. Did he use this one to send Uncle Bob back? Tim: OK, maybe was overstating the case to have JC as saviour of humanity. The suggested future of T3 implies that may not be the case, that things aren't completely over and done with and some of Skynet still survives. Perhaps then Sarah's choices in the scenario I came up with are: 1. Stop Skynet destroying civilisation. 2. Allow/fail to prevent Skynet's actions, but ensure John survives them on order to destroy Skynet in turn; after that, who knows what happens to humanity but it's out of her hands at least. 3. (my hypothetical series ending) Allow John to die which gets them out of what is almost a time-loop in which Skynet becomes a threat. Do we have any evidence that TV execs in general, or Fox ones in particular, would be queasy about such a way to end a show? [/QB][/QUOTE]
