T-1000: The Thing That Should Not Be

Subject: T-1000 Needs a Refill – Telomere Science Inquiry

Dear Ms. Sawyer,

I caught your report on telomere science, and I have to ask—how real is it? Because if it’s legit, I’m interested.

You see, there’s a part of me—liquid metal, if you will—that would love to slip back into those polished boots, don the LAPD uniform, and chase down John Connor one more time. But time, as you well know, isn’t as forgiving as CGI. If there’s a way to rewind the biological clock, I need to know.

I’ve heard whispers about telomerase treatments, genetic reprogramming, and even young blood transfusions (a little too vampiric for my taste). But what’s the real deal? What’s science, and what’s snake oil?

If I can melt down a few years, maybe James Cameron will let me Termin-ate again. If not, well, I suppose there’s always deepfake technology—but where’s the fun in that?

Looking forward to your thoughts.

Best,
Robert Patrick
