Terminator

SARAH - This is a mistake. I haven't done anything.

REESE - No. But you will. It's very important that you live.

SARAH - I can't believe this is happening. How could that man get up after you...

REESE - Not a man. A Terminator. Cyberdyne Systems Model 101.

SARAH - A machine? You mean, like what...a robot?

REESE - Not a robot. Cyborg.Cybernetic Organism.

SARAH - But...he was bleeding.

REESE - Just a second. Keep your head down.

REESE - Alright. Listen. The Terminator's an infiltration unit. Part man, part machine. Underneath, it's a combat chassis, hyperalloy, fully armored. Very tough...But outside, it's living human tissue. Flesh, skin, hair...blood.Grown for the cyborgs.

SARAH - Look, Reese, I know you want to help, but...

REESE - (cutting her off) Pay attention! The 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy.But these are new. They look human. Sweat, bad breath, everything. Very hard to spot. I had to wait 'til he moved on you before I could zero him.

SARAH - Hey, I'm not stupid, y'know. They can't build anything like that yet.

REESE - No. Not yet. Not for about forty years.

---

REESE - (slow, but intense) Listen. Understand. That Terminator is out there. It can't be reasoned with, it can't be bargained with...it doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear...and it absolutely will not stop. Ever.Until you are dead.

SARAH - Can you stop it

REESE - Maybe. With these weapons...I don't know.
