The Terminator is so mind-boggling! After twenty years, I think we all just gave up on figuring it out. The only thing that really makes me all confuzzled is: what is the original timeline? Is there one where John's father didn't meet Sarah? But then how is John there? Only way I could figure it is that there is a timeline where John isn't there. And when John's parents have sex and he's created, he pops into being and starts it all. That's the best way I can figure it.
Ever see the Butterfly Effect with Ashton Kutcher? Also mind-bendy but I like it. :-)
I want to know Simon and Alisha's original timeline if that is possible? Maybe one day they will show it to us.
I think it's possible to be in a relationship and not be defined by it. But Alisha has been defined by her power and well, she was a sexual being from day one. What I mean is for her to not be defined as only a sexual being. And maybe her lesson is to learn who she is when she's not the party girl, you know? I really liked that recently she was the one that said they had to stop the Video Game Man from killing people. She was right. It was only a matter of time before he turned on them. She's young but I sense she can be so much more. And that she wants to be. Everyone keeps telling her how beautiful she is but I think she wants to be more than just that.
Simon and Kelly definitely have the best hold on their powers. Other than Alisha staying away from men and not being touched, I'm not sure how she can use it. The men end up attacking her. Even when she takes charge and uses/rapes them, it's still a pretty destructive power. But some of the powers are. Like Ice Girl who got burned up. Maybe one can learn control? Like on The X-Men? Maybe Alisha can learn to distract or allure men but just a little, not so they want to attack her. Maybe she can learn to control men through sex.
I'm not sure. Because hell, maybe she was controlling men through sex before, you know? And well, it's not a good thing to rape or control people. I want to believe that she's meant for something bigger and better and this power was given to her to steer her away from focusing on her sexuality so much. But that seems unfair and like a punishment. Nathan has no such limitations, you know? And that boy could use some boundaries.
I like the show and I feel like they are going somewhere with all of this. I hope so! I haven't been this excited about a new show in a while. :-)
