Coltan and New Identity, 22 January 2009
7/10
Author: Claudio Carvalho from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Cameron shows Sarah and John a picture of the skull of the Terminator Cromartie in the present days (2007) possibly with intact chip; further that a shipment of the alloy Coltan, which is used for constructing the skeleton of the machines, is being transported to the Port of Los Angeles due to an accident in the original destination harbor. She concludes that Cromartie is behind these events, and Sarah decides to move from Los Angeles. However, John, who is having problems to deal with the death of his suicidal schoolmate Jordan Cowan, tells that they should fight while Cromartie is vulnerable. They keep the depot in the harbor under their surveillance and witness an armed group robbing the metal. When John decides to plant a cell phone in the truck to track it, he is trapped in the truck with the criminals that drive to a distant military facility. Meanwhile Cromartie forces a plastic surgeon to operate his face using the identity of the aspirant actor George Laszlo, killing him after the surgery. Agent James Ellison follows his hunch but his superiors do not accept the basis of his investigation.

In this good episode, John is feeling lost after the death of Jordan in the last episode. Sarah still gives a bad treatment to Cameron, and I really do not understand her behavior. The veteran Agent James Ellison shows the importance of experience in his business and his feelings were absolutely right. Cromartie has self-restored and has a new identity. Cameron, as usual, is responsible for the best moments of the show. My vote is seven.
