Tormented by the imminent threat of a nuclear holocaust from which intelligent machines will emerge triumphant over the remnants of the human race, Sarah Connor has been diagnosed as a dangerous schizophrenic and placed in an institution. Her son John has been branded a problem child and is in the care of foster parents.

Sarah has seen the future and knows that her son will survive the nuclear conflagration and become the leader of the human resistance - but the machines of 2029 know it too and send a cyborg assassin back through time to terminate humanity's potential saviour. This killing machine is even more terrifyingly powerful and deadly than the one defeated by Sarah ten years before.
