Terminator

I have always been a fan of the character "Terminator", especially the T800 of the Judgement Day. It was programed in the future to save a particular kid from T1000, an advanced prototype, and was sent back in time. The T800 was not programed to self terminate.
The emotionless face, the sense of having no pain, a stern grin and a chiseled body. even my hairdo is inspired from this character and i keep it as often as possible, since my student days.
I particularly like the behaviour as a machine. no pain even when there are infinite bullet wounds on the back. the attitude of completing the mission, whatever the case may be.
and, am deeply moved when the T800 says " I now know why you cry. Thats something i can never do". Even though T800 was not programed to self terminate, the chip inside needed to be destroyed, to ensure the safety of the kid who had programed it. allowing itself into a couldron of molten iron, T800 gives a thumbs-up until the last bit is melted.
may be, its worth it. to be a machine. to be expendable. to complete the mission, no matter what it takes.even death.
