** Cameron's ability to cry in the second season premiere. While at first it seems to set her apart from other Terminators, if you look closely at the scene in the first film when the T-800 repairs its eye, you can see a SingleTear. In the second film, Arnie asks about crying and tells John he knows why it happens, but he can't. Technically, he can, he just doesn't know how or why.
