The idea that John knew Riley was from the future, because of the way she was acting around Cameron, and followed her back to Jesse, that was the first time I saw him as the guy who could be the savior of mankind against Skynet. Instead of a generic teen resenting his mother that they could have airlifted in from twenty thousand sitcoms.
What did you think of the fakeout with the timing of the hack? That Skynet borrowed John Henry's body and grabbed Savannah, right after she told him they could change the rules? For a minute I thought I'd been wrong about JH being a different AI and that was the birth of Skynet as we know it, changing the rules Ellison had been teaching him.
