The following is a list of minor characters in the FOX science fiction television series Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, including supporting characters, and important villains.
C
Carter
A Terminator sent back in time to 2007 by Skynet to acquire and store a large amount of Coltan, the metal used to construct Terminators, in the episode Heavy Metal. Carter hires various human military personnel, who are unaware of what he truly is, to assist him in his assignment. Once his mission is completed, Carter kills his human personnel, secures the storage area, and shuts himself down to await further orders. Cameron identifies his endoskeletal structure as different from Cromartie's.
Jordan Cowan
A classmate of John and Cameron. In the episode "The Turk", Jordan Cowan (Alessandra Toreson) was upset over graffiti on a classroom door, which hinted she may have had a sexual liaison with a teacher or student. Ashamed, she committed suicide by jumping off the school's roof. John had wanted to save her, but Cameron thwarted his chance. John takes Jordan's death personally.
D
Charley Dixon
Charley Dixon, portrayed by Dean Winters, is a secondary character in the first episode. He is Sarah Connor's fiancé, but she leaves him and moves on to another location. Dixon reports her disappearance to the police and is told about her history by FBI agent, James Ellison. After learning that Sarah and John had supposedly died in the explosion within the Bank of Security Trust of Los Angeles, Dixon heads to Los Angeles to see the ruins for himself, and later settled there where he met Michelle, whom he later married. Dixon is seen again at the end of the pilot episode watching his ex-fiancé on TV.
John Connor visits Dixon soon after traveling through time, having read about him on the Web. Dixon is shocked to see him alive and wants to know what happened to the Connors. John is not receptive to his queries and shoves him to the floor and leaves.[1]
The T-888 Terminator Cromartie visits Dixon and his wife at their home in the guise of FBI Agent Kester, suspecting that they are harboring the Connors. Dixon denies having seen or heard from the Connors for the previous eight years and indicates that he was under the impression that the Connors were dead. Cromartie leaves his business card with Dixon. Dixon's wife Michelle realizes that he is lying, detecting his tell, and he tells her of John's visit. Later in the same episode, John fetches Dixon to save the life of his uncle Derek Reese, who has been shot by a Terminator and is dying. On arrival, Dixon is stunned to see Sarah Connor alive, but then composes himself and administers CPR to Reese.[2]
During the treatment of Derek Reese, Charley was slowly told the truth by Sarah, and eventually sees a Terminator endoskeleton that Cameron was going to destroy with thermite. After realizing that she was still a threat to him, Sarah parts ways with Charley. Before Charley leaves, he gives Sarah Cromartie's card as a warning that he might be in trouble and gives a final kiss on her forehead.
Michelle Dixon
Michelle Dixon, portrayed by Sonya Walger, is the wife of Charley.
G
Andy Goode
Andrew "Andy" Goode, portrayed by Brendan Hines, was a young college dropout from Caltech who interned with Cyberdyne Systems, and worked as an assistant to Miles Dyson. His experience at Cyberdyne helped him create an advanced artificial intelligence chess playing program, The Turk. Sarah destroyed it by setting fire to his home, fearing the Turk would lead to the creation of Skynet. Andy had a romantic interest with Sarah.
Andy was killed in the episode Queen's Gambit by Derek Reese, Kyle Reese's brother, after a chess tournament, who then claimed someone else stole Goode's artificial intelligence prototype. He is shown in the episode "Dungeons and Dragons" in a future world during Derek's flashback. In it Andy appears older and renamed himself as William Wisher, a Resistance soldier and a friend of the Reese brothers. After being captured by Skynet's Machine Network, he reveals to Derek Reese that he is one of the ten or fifteen people responsible for creating Skynet. Before Derek made his journey through time, Goode gives a nod to Derek implying that he knows what his mission is. Near the end of the episode, it is explained that Derek kills Andy when he travels back through time to the present time line of the previous episode, extinguishing Andy as part of the group who would create Skynet.
R
Derek Reese
![]() |
Derek Thomas Reese, First Lieutenant 132SOC Tech-Com (aka The Four Horsemen), portrayed by Brian Austin Green, was born 1996 and was one of four resistance agents sent by John Connor in 2027 to 2007 to secure finance and other resources and wait for Sarah and John Connor when they made the time jump from 1999 to 2007. He is the older brother of Kyle Reese and therefore John's paternal uncle. Like other Resistance fighters who have at some point been captured by Skynet's forces, he has a bar code tattooed on his right forearm, where he conceals a small blade under the skin.
Derek is first seen (via his bar-coded arm) watching the Connors flee the compromised resistance safehouse in Gnothi Seauton where Reese's entire unit who came with him from the future had been slaughtered by the T-888 sent by Skynet. Somehow Derek was the only survivor but the T-888 was still actively hunting him.
In The Turk, Sarah Connor catches a glimpse of Reese while he's stalking the outside of Andy Goode's house.
Later in Queen's Gambit Reese is seen by Sarah yet again, this time fleeing from the scene of Andy Goode's murder. Sarah pursues and tackles Reese and while he's trying to get away he's cornered by the police and arrested. Under arrested in the county jail, Derek is interrogated by FBI Agent Ellison about his possible involvement with the killings at the safehouse in Gnothi Seauton as well as other crimes that were all linked to the safehouse murders through the presence of synthetic Terminator blood. Masquerading as Reese's lawyer, Sarah gets in to see Derek and accuses him of killing Andy which he denies. While Sarah is about to leave, Derek tells her his name and therefore unintentionally reveals himself as John's uncle. Meanwhile, the T-888 who killed the other fighters in Gnothi Seauton tracks Derek to the jail through his arrest record and infiltrates the lock-up as a prisoner so he can kill Reese.
Ellison decides to transfer Reese to a Federal facility, but as he is transported, Sarah, John, and Cameron intercept the vehicle, disarm the guards, and free him. The T-888 meanwhile breaks into Reese's cell to find him gone. It catches up with Reese just as Sarah and Cameron are freeing Derek, and shoots Derek before being disabled by Cameron. Reese, bleeding badly, is beyond Cameron's abilities to treat, so John brings EMT Charley Dixon in to save his life.[2]
Drifting in and out of consciousness, Derek Reese remembers his past (our future) as he fights for his life on the Connors' kitchen table (Dungeons & Dragons). It is revealed through flashbacks that during his capture by Skynet Derek met an older Andy Goode who admits that he was one of the people responsible for Skynet. Further flashbacks showed that Derek was indeed the one who murdered Andy in Queen's Gambit even though he denied it to Sarah.
While Reese is unconscious and Charley is working to save him, Sarah makes John promise not to tell Derek that Kyle was John's father pointing out that Derek may be family by blood but he's still a stranger and that the future John didn't reveal the relation to Kyle for a reason. John grudgingly promises not to tell Derek but does tell Derek later that Kyle was sent back in time to save John and died a hero fighting the machines.
Derek makes a full recovery from his gunshot wound. Unsurprisingly he greatly distrusts Cameron, seeing her only as one of the machines he has fought against all his life. Derek asks Sarah about his brother's body and she tells him she'll one day take Derek to where his brother is buried. Despite not knowing that John is his nephew, Derek and John begin to bond. It has since been revealed that Derek had suspected that John was his nephew, saying that "Everytime I look at you I see him (Kyle/)"
Kyle Reese
S
Enrique Salceda
Enrique Salceda, portrayed by Tony Amendola, was an expert at forging identities and helped provide the Connors firearms during Terminator 2, but retired from the business and passed it on to his nephew, Carlos. Enrique is killed by Cameron after Sarah suspects that Enrique is a traitor, which later proves to be true.
Dr. Peter Silberman
V
Vick
Vick, portrayed by Matt McColm, is a T-888 Terminator who was sent back to kill all Resistance fighters, including Derek Reese. Cameron removes its CPU and incinerates its endoskeleton. It is revealed through its CPU memory that it was sent back to make sure one of Skynet's programmers did her part, and kill anyone who threatened her ability to do so, which ultimately included the Resistance fighters.
W
Cheri Westin
Cheri Westin, portrayed by Kristina Apgar, who is John's chemistry partner, seems troubled and shuns everyone who attempts to befriend her, including John. One classmate named Morris reveals to John that Cheri may have a dysfunctional life after an unknown incident at the last school she attended.
