** The entire fight scene in the bar is hilarious and awesome, from the main biker's confusion at the T-800 [[NoSell not reacting at all to being burned with a cigar]] to him being thrown across the entire bar, into the kitchen, and [[KillItWithFire onto a hot stovetop]], to another biker smashing a pool cue against the T-800's head and being flung out through the front window, to a knife being driven into the T-800's chest ([[BackstabBackfire and promptly used to pin its wielder to the pool table]]), to every other biker in the bar backing away.

* It's ''very'' dark humor, but as Sarah is about to kill Dyson she's freaking out badly and raging furiously at him saying that "it" (Judgment Day) is all his fault. Miles, not even knowing who this person who just shot him in the shoulder is, can only ask, in a genuinely baffled tone, "What?"

** To elaborate, the T-1000 kills Todd after the later is shouting at the dog Rex constantly barking and drinking milk out of the carton. The T-1000 (disguised as Janette) gives him a noticeably annoyed look before casually shifting the phone to its other hand and transforming its arm into a blade to punch through the milk carton and Todd's head.

** As for the Cryoco truck driver, the T-1000 just walks right up to him while he's asking if it's alright from the crash and runs him through before dropping him and going for the truck, as if silently saying, "Shut up, gotta take your truck."

** This also subtly foreshadows some of the events in T4: leave it to [=SkyNet=] to be such a SmugSnake that it would program its killing machine to go silently ''[[EvilGloating taunting]]'' one of its worst enemies before terminating her.
** As much as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome it is, one can't help but giggle at the scene immediately afterwards. After the T-800 comes in and fires one last grenade into the T-1000, the latter snaps his head up to the former with an expression that can only be summed up with ''"[[OhCrap holy fucking shit I'm gonna die]]"''.

[[SeriousBusiness He was about to steal someone's bike.]] The instant the T-800 snatches the gun out of his hands, he looks as if he's about to wet his pants.

When she asked what was going on, Arnie replied that it was "male strippers' night". This becomes HilariousInHindsight in ''Film/Terminator3RiseOfTheMachines'' when the T-800 walks into a bar that held a male stripper show.
