Sarah was smashing that chip so hard, she broke the rifle. Great scene, worked so well. It could have been pulled straight from T2. Do you find this valuable?

Agree with everyone here about Lena's (Sarah's) performance tonight, it was terrific. A big emotional release like this was what (I think) the Greeks called "catharsis." From wikipedia:

"Catharsis In literature and art, a purification of emotions. The Greek philosopher Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) used the term to describe the effect on the audience of a tragedy acted out on a theater stage. This effect consists in cleansing the audience of disturbing emotions, such as fear and pity, thereby releasing tension ... In modern usage, catharsis may refer to any experience, real or imagined, that purges a person of negative emotions."

It's a good thing she had the safety on.

"I believe psychologists have a technical term for those types of people. "Profoundly Retarded." This is seriously the best ensemble cast on television, and Lena and Thomas are far from dragging the quality down."
Agreed, whoever hates Lena and Thomas can kiss my ass, they probably hate them more now...considering they are both doing a great job portraying the characters they were aptly chosen to portray.

Powerful scene. It shows the great burden placed on her to protect her son at all costs. It shows the love for her son. I was overcome with sadness with this scene. It must be very hard for Sarah to go through this. Do you find this valuable?

"Very moving scene for Sarah and John! I'm glad he stepped up to be there for her. They both needed that!
She sacrificed SO much and gone through hell, running from Cromartie to protect her son!
Was good for her to have some closure . . .
I loved John's final shot at Cromartie too!"
I agree with you completely, but if I could have changed one thing it would have been that John's hand would have been steady and sure before pulling the trigger, not shaking. His character needs to be strong!

Sarah's breakdown at the end was quite moving, and I think John will get his act together after this. He just needs a push to do it. Tonight was that push. Do you find this valuable?

I think both Lena and Thomas are awesome too. However, I thought Lena destroying the chip was a little cheesy. And I have to say - I'm not a fan of the slow pace and folky music during the Cromartie ambush in the church - it's prefer it to be less artsy and more rocking. These are Terminators!

Man this show is amazing though!!!! LOVE IT!

what a moving moment in the show-I just sat there not saying a word-I think we needed to see Sara that emotional and John needed to see it as well. Do you find this valuable?

Did anyone notice Cameron's expression while she was smashing the chip.....she was like "Whoa, I wonder if that could happen to me" it was kind of a look of horror.

At least thats what i saw.

When Sarah was holding on to John and crying it was like she was letting out everything she has kept pent up inside of her since episode 1. Powerful scene, Lena did an excellent job. 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

I think that song has something to do with "The day of the dead" theme for the town, and the episode. Just like in the premiere, Josh likes to have the lyrics tie into the action.

After Cameron shot Cromartie in the face it seemed like she was stunned. It was as if she was questioning her own mortality watching Cromartie crumble to the floor and die. Do you find this valuable?

I have to agree that the music in the Cromartie ambush scene didn't feel appropriate. It didn't set the right mood, and it kinda drew me out of the scene. It certainly didn't enhance it.

"People who are not fans of this show need to back off on Lena. I heard people say she's not living up to the expectations. Those people are so wrong. She has supassed any expectations that I had. So wonderful tonight."
No argument from me...Lena was EXCELLENT!! :)
