MISTAKES/GOOFS

CHAR: Enrique refers to a boxer called "El Finito" and Sarah instantly translates that for "The Finisher". While Ricardo "Finito" López is a real, legendary Mexican boxer, Sarah's translation of his nickname makes little sense. Out of context, the word could mean "slim" if translated from Spanish and "finished" if translated from Italian, which is it's real origin, but not "The Finisher".
CHAR: When tested on his new identity by Cameron, John says he comes from Lawrence, Kansas, and Cameron says his father was a police officer who was killed in the line of duty. Later (while registering for school) we see his fake birth certificate which says he was born in Los Angeles to an unknown father.
FAKE: When Cameron is battling with the other terminator they both go out the window, hitting the wall of the adjacent building and falling to the ground. Look carefully as they hit the wall and you can see it move.
CHAR: There's a recording of El Finito talking at the end of the episode. In it, he says "expensivo". Expensivo is not a real word, and no native Spanish speaker would ever say that.

TRIVIA

Enrique Salceda is the man Sarah, John, and the male Terminator visited in the movie Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) for supplies, guns, and a truck.
The address to the computer store was "1337" pronounced "leet" (substituting letters for similar looking numbers), hacker wannabe slang for "elite".
"Gnothi Seauton" is a transliteration of the Greek for "know thyself".
