Jesse seems to have a very strong incentive to go to the Eagle Rock bunker, considering she came all the way inland from her submarine. She would have had to walk at least 25 miles from shore through either the remains of downtown LA or over the Santa Monica mountains, while avoiding Terminators the entire way.
When Derek and Lauren are caring for Lauren's mother Anne, Derek tells Anne about her unborn daughter Sydney. This is the second time a Reese brother has told a woman about her unborn child and what his/her name was. The first time was when Kyle Reese told Sarah Connor about her son John, who was not even conceived yet.
Anne: Thought a crisis was supposed to bring a family closer. Sarah: Don't confuse 'close' with 'happy'.
Anne: (after Sarah and Cameron kidnap the family) Why would you keep a gun in the house?! David: For a situation like this! Or a bear. Cameron: (looking at the small revolver) This wouldn't work in a situation like this. Anne: Why didn't you tell me?! Cameron: Or a bear.
David: Who are you? What are you doing here? Tell me the truth. Sarah: The truth. In the near future a computer system called Skynet takes over the world. It sends humanoid machines back in time to eliminate anyone who's a threat. I have a target list. Your name is on it. A machine is coming to kill you.
Anne: Does your son know you kidnap people at gunpoint? Sarah: Yes. Anne: Then you know he'll be prone to delinquency himself? Lauren: Mom, I think it's obvious she's well beyond Dr. Phil.
Lauren: You sound so used to all this. Derek: You don't get used to it. You live through it.
General Perry: Once exposed, there's no way to know how long you've got. It could be four hours till the symptoms hit, 20 before the bug kills you. This could be a one-way trip. Derek: We're all on one-way trips. General Perry: He's not out there, you know. Your brother Kyle. He's gone, Reese. Now, either you learn to live with that, or die from it.
Lauren: It was my fault . I used the phone. I called a friend, Roger. I guess… I needed to feel normal, you know, like a person. Derek: So you broke the rules. Lauren: Yeah. And Rule #1 is : there is no normal.
Lauren: You really do this? With a kid? Sarah: He's why I do this.
David: And what are you doing on my computer? Lauren: Looking at lesbian porn. What's the difference? David: You're gay? Anne: Lauren? Lauren: God, people. No! Thanks for knowing me.
Anne: I'm not like you. I'm just normal. Sarah: I was normal. All this I had to learn. Anne: I thought crisis was supposed to bring a family closer? Sarah: Don't confuse close with happy.
Jessie: Have a little faith, mate. She'll be apples… Means we'll be all right. Derek: You believe that? Jessie: Sure as my mother loves me. Derek: My mother's dead. Here. (He hands her a gas mask) Jessie: Gas? Derek: Bugs. Jessie: This gonna work? Derek: Probably not. (Jessie laughs)
(Sydney opens the door and sees Derek and Jessie) Sydney: Those gas masks won't help. You're already infected.
Derek: Rabbits? Thought Australia was all wombats and wallabies and stuff. Jessie: No. Some wacko brought 'em over in the 1800's. We've been overrun with them ever since. Tried everything to kill the things. Trapped 'em, shot 'em, poisoned 'em, built a fence across half the country to keep 'em out. In the 1950's, they even introduced a virus to wipe 'em out forever. It killed most of 'em, but a couple were immune, so ten years later, Oz was up to its eyeballs in rabbits again. Tough little bastards. That's why you have to cook 'em longer.
Cameron: (Looks down on Roger after striking him unconscious) He is human? Lauren: Yes of course! Cameron: My mistake.
(Derek and Jessie lay in hospital beds, close to death) Jessie: You know what Oscar Wilde's last words were? (sniffles) Either the wallpaper goes, or I do. (laughs) Derek: I thought it would be over by now. (both are gasping for breath) Jessie: You're ready for it? Derek: No. No, I'm not. Jessie: Then what were you doing when I found you outside Eagle Rock? Derek: I think … I was waiting for you.

Cybernetic Organism: When the family refers to the Terminator as a robot Sarah continuously corrects them by calling is a Cybernetic Organism. This is a reference to the original motion pictures, in which - sometimes gravely, sometimes humorously - it is clearly distinguished between the two.
