"♪Subtitles by♪  XQ2☻" "Before they died, my parents told me stories of how the world once was." "What it was like long before I was born." "Before the war with the machines." "They remembered a green world, vast and beautiful," "filled with laughter and hope for the future." "But it's a world I never knew." "By the time I was born... all this, was gone." "SkyNet, a computer program designed to automate missile defense." "It was supposed to protect us." "But that's not what happened." "On August 29, 1997" "SkyNet woke up." "And decided all humanity was a threat to its existence." "It used our own bombs against us." "Three billion people died in the nuclear fire." "The survivors... called it Judgement Day." "People lived like rats in the shadows, hiding, starving, or worse;" "captured and put into camps for extermination." "I was born, after Judgement Day, into a broken world," "ruled by the machines." "The worst were infiltration units, designed to pass for human." "We called them Terminators." "It's OK, buddy." "You're all on your own?" "Are there others down there?" "And then one man found me." "His name is John Connor." "And he changed everything." "John showed us how to fight back, how to rise up." "He freed prisoners," "taught us to smash the machines to scrap." "People whisper about John." "Wonder how he can know the things he does." "They use words like, 'prophet'." "But John is more." "We're here because tonight he's gonna lead us, to crush SkyNet." "For good." "Sir, request to join the Colorado Offensive." "I need you with me, Reese." "We're talking about the complete destruction of SkyNet, sir." "Colorado Unit will succeed." "The machines will fall tonight." "Right here the Los Angeles assault is just as important, maybe more..." "More important than destroying SkyNet's central core?" "John, I don't understand why you're leading an attack on a workcamp." "Because the camp is a camoflauge." "Inside the camp is a hangar." "Beneath that hangar, SkyNet's hidden it's final weapon." "When SkyNet realizes it has lost, it will deploy that weapon to insure it's own survival." "We take it tonight, or there is no tomorrow." "Then we'll take it." "You're my right hand, Reese, I never thanked you for it." "You don't need to." "You gave us all a future, John." "I'm gonna use mine." "When this is all over, I'm..." "I'm gonna find my parent's house." "Re-build it." "Use my hands, for something other than killing." "How about you?" "Cold beer'd be good." " That's your perfect plan?" " Yes." "Yeah, I guess I don't think about it too much." "Yeah, I can see that." "I figure, whatever happens, it's gotta be better than this." "So many of us have died, to get here." "I want you to know, Kyle, if there was another way, I would've taken it." "Move out." "The machine thinks that we cannot win." "The machine thinks, that we will not... strike at the very heart of SkyNet." "Yet here we stand." "On the precipice of the final battle." "If we die tonight, mankind dies with us." "No!" "I look at each of you, and I see the marks of this long and terrible war." "Go!" "Go!" "Perimeter breach." "Activate model 1-0-1." "For our children." "Our children's children; so they will not carry these marks." "But they will know who we are and what we did!" "That we did not bow down." "We did not give in." "We rose up, at this moment, at this hour!" "Willing to sacrifice everything... so that they could live in freedom!" "On this night, we take back our world!" "They're using the weapon!" "We gotta get to the hangar." "John!" "John!" "You want me?" "I'm right here!" "Colorado units reporting in." "SkyNet central core is down." "Repeat:" "SkyNet has been destroyed." "John was right." "Colorado unit succeded and the machines fell." "But it was too late." "We found it, sir." "Right where you said it would be." "What is that thing?" "Fate." "It's the first tactical time weapon." "SkyNet just used it." "What the hell?" "We'll need 15 minutes to ready the machine, sir." "We're running co-ordinates, we should have them for you momentarily." "Los Angeles, 1984." "Los Angeles, May 12th... 1984." "SkyNet knew it was losing, so it tried to rig the game." "It sent a terminator back to the time before the war." "And who's the target?" "My mother." "Sarah Connor." "If the machine suceeds, I'll never be born." "They'll kill her first." "And by doing so, erase every victory we fought for, including, tonight's." "There won't be a Resistance to challenge the machines." "With this one act SkyNet will win." "We can use the technology ourselves." "Send someone back." "We don't even know if that'll work." " I'll go, sir." " I'll go, sir." "I'll go!" "I'll volunteer." "I'll go back." "Why should I send you... over all of them?" "'Cause I'd die for Sarah Connor." "All these people would die for Sarah Connor." "What makes you any different?" "You know why." "Everything you told me about her." "I know her, John." "Let me save her." "No weapons?" "We've measured the magnetic field." "It'll rip apart anything not encased in living tissue." "Think tinfoil in a micro-wave, times a few billion." "Nothing left but a crater." "Oh... no clothes, either." "She's gonna think I'm crazy." "You knew the device would be here." "You knew what it'd be set for." "You knew the machines would fall tonight." "So before I go, tell me." "Tell you, what?" "You see the future?" "No one can see the future, Reese." "OK, then how do you know?" "I cheat." "Sarah told me so much." "She gave me signposts." "When I was a kid, it seemed like my mother knew everything." "Musta been great." "Not really." "It stops here." "Once you go back, my knowledge ends." "That's as much as Sarah knew." "So, no more cheating." "No more cheating." "At the time you're going back to, she won't be the warrior that raised me." "Not yet." "She'll be scared and weak." "She won't know how to fight or defend herself." "Her bigest worry is making rent and tuition." "She's a waitress." "What?" "Oh..." "Never mind." "Just be ready for the fact that she will need you but she won't know it." "So, what do I say to her?" "Even when I tell her who I am, she's not gonna believe me." "Tell her this:" ""Thank you Sarah. for your courage during the dark years"" ""I can't help you with what you must soon face"" ""except to say the future is not set"." ""There is no fate, but that we make for ourselves"" ""You must be stronger than you imagine you can be."" ""You must survive,"" ""or I will never exist."" "Take care of her for me, Kyle." "I will." "Promise you." "What you're doing right now, this is the end of the war." "You didn't think it would be that easy, did you?" "John!" "Hey, birthday boy!" "Present time, let's go." "No way!" "Genisys will auto-update as soon as it comes online." "You'll have it the moment it comes out." "Just a few days more." "Straight line!" "Remembe"
