I've been trying to figure out the whole Riley story thing too. I remember she asked Riley "Well did he tell you yet?" and she replied with something along the lines of not yet but he's close. If she already knows the story, why does it matter? I'm sure it will tie in somehow.
I also liked the episode. Though why she goes to the library was a bit odd to me. I would have thought she'd be at home watching John. I thought the Terminator in the past was kind of a neat spin on things. The long way to do things, but hey, it could've worked

I realize some people liked it, and I can suspend belief as much as the next guy, but they just seemed to have too many WTF????? moments for me in this one that kept taking me out of the story. The worst was the governor of California reference, which of course makes us think of Arnold..... They should have made him the US President or something to give the storyline some weight without making us think of Arnold...
The only thing I have never got is how the terminator maintained its power; must have one helluva internal power source. Then again, the same would be true for Mr. Data on Star Trek.
Has anyone figured out whether Riley and the Aussie chick are trying to help John or hurt him?
I wonder if Fox is trying to kill Terminator by moving it to Friday Nights...
I haven't figured it out yet either... The Aussie has made comments in the past that he's gotten too close to his terminator unit and making bad decisions. Though not sure how him finding a girlfriend really does much with that (unless he becomes "romantically" involved with his terminator in the future?)

Aw c'mon, men have been lusting after fembots for decades..... Even if they might kill us, it doesn't kill the allure....
