Sarah Connor Chronicles: Season 1 Plot Holes
Now that Season One of T:SCC has settled in, have you caught any plot holes in the Connor quest?
If so, click EasyEdit and point out the plot particulars in our plot hole summary below! Dish and dissect on the plot holes in the discussion threads below!
Pick Away at Season One Plot Holes!
- Not really wild Kat i mean when i look at the story though T1, T2 and then watch the Terminator Sarah Connor chronicles it makes the whole story look good to me in my head. So there for there are no pot hole in the story of the TSCC season 1 -Finney23
- The Whole time travel concept really fills in the gaps a lot. But by all means if you find any plot holes share it with us.- Krazy Kaleb
- have just again viewed the first terminator movie, and found some interesting things. In The Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Derek speaks of having been able to see judgment day, but in the first Terminator Kyle speaks of being born after the nuclear war and growing up in the ruins. We do see some continuety with the fact that Sarah starts out as a simple college girl who is a waitress by profession. Sarah makes a mention to this in the show while sitting with Derek. Like Derek, Kyle has flash backs to his life in the future. What the show is not filling in is the time line between the first and second terminator movies, so we have no idea where john is born, or if sarah has close encounters with other terminators while john is a baby. All we know is that from early on she tells him of his future, and that he is never safe. (Isission)
- yes in the first movie kyle describes being born after judgement day. but what you may have forgotten is that the events in Terminator 2 effectively delayed judgement day.
- the only plot holes i can see are the fault of T3. Simply put, that movie never should have been made. It was too comical to fit in with James Cameron's vision and now that TSCC is out it opens many plot holes. One of the biggest that i noticed in T3 was the appearance of Dr. Silberman (as a doctor, not a patient). Although TSCC came out after T3, I am more comfortable with the premise of him losing it and getting admitted to the same hospital Sarah was in.
- One thing I DO want to point out as a flaw in the entire terminator mythos, is that after the T-101 and T-1000 have been on security cameras taking gunshot after gunshot, why are the authorities still skeptical about the terminator's existence. As if the footage isnt enough, the entire LAPD SWAT unit witnessed the T-101 take hundreds if not thousands of gunshots and still keep coming at the cyberdyne building. And too a completely different point. Cyberdyne obviously recovered parts from the factory where the first T-101 was crushed. They kept the arm and the chip as their basis for research. Having that evidence on hand, why was Sarah's testimony never given more credit?
- My point is that so far TSCC has been plot-hole free. However theres just some really stupid things in the mythos that arent really plot holes but head scratchers. Given that TSCC is big on flashbacks, id like to see the unexplained get some light shed on it. I guess we'll have to wait and see (provided fox doesnt firefly our beloved TSCC).
- When we first meet Cameron she blends in so well that John thinks she is a real girl but later when they go back to school she doesn't try to blend in for any given reason.
- In Dungeons and Dragons Cameron states that Sarah has blood type O - (the universal donor), but Derek requires his own type of blood AB -. Then John is tested and is found to be AB -. If Sarah is John's biological mother he would get one blood type allele from her (either O or O) and one allele from his father, Kyle, (could be A or B or O). So John could only be AO = A, BO = B, or OO = O, and the AB phenotype is not possible. Sorry, I know only a biology geek would notice this, but i am pointing it out anyway. If confused check out: http://www.biology.arizona.edu/Human_Bio/problem_sets/blood_types/inherited.html. Alternatively, maybe the rules of mendalian inheritance do not apply in the terminator universe :).
- Chromartie gets a list of new students in the school district to try and track down John. When he enters his search into the computer he puts in Caucasian for the race. Chromartie then comes to their school and Cameron asks Morris to take John's place in going to the office to fool him. Morris is not Caucasian, and Chromartie did not realize anything was wrong.

In T1 and T:SCC they always carry small Firearms... What for, I wonder...?
Every Time the Terminator eats the Bullets like Candy and just don't care... Unless it's a Shotgun, automatic Weapons or Explosives it doesn't stop... Nevermind... => loki424 You're absolutely right: They really need more instances of Summer Glau's clothing being disintegrated. ;)

I agree with loki424. The head would not have survived going through time, but also it would not have survived without a power source. Sticking the terminator head on a human body will not make it work and control the human body. This was a very disappointing moment for me. I love the show but this plot point was naff.

In both the original movie and one of the first episodes (I believe it was the pilot, but I'm not positive), time travelers state that you can't take technology through time with you. For instance, rather than taking back a weapon capable of frying enemy terminators, the resistance had to send back members to build the individual components. Terminators get around this by being wrapped in skin (I don't know how T-1000's get around it since they have no skin...but whatever), but Chromarti's head is stripped of all flesh when it flies through the time machine. It should've been disintigrated like Summer Glau's clothing. Also, his body was left undisturbed in the ruins of a bank. Yeah...the owners of the bank decided to not to attempt to recover a single ting from the vault/safe-deposit box area.
This is a great show, though. I love how they handled the shootout at the end of season one: rather than have a laughable action scene due to low budget (compared to a major film) and TV violence regulations, they just showed the effect of the battle and let the audience fill in the gaps while they focused on the plot instead. The writers of this show are sort of an anti-Michael Bay....and that's a very very good thing. Note: they need more instances of Summer Glau's clothing being disintegrated.
