No início do filme, vemos Kyle Reese sair do espaço e aparentemente, ele está com um pouco de dor. Ele sentiu dores no outono ou o portal de transporte é realmente doloroso?
Bônus: Ou isso era um prenúncio de que ele estava realmente um pouco ferido antes de escapar para a tenda do tempo, assumindo que no futuro a resistência era APENAS capaz de levá-lo antes que os Terminators aparecessem?
Os filmes novelização oficial e roteiro original indicam que o TDE (Time Displacement Equipment) é massivamente doloroso usar. Choques elétricos, barulho alto e movimentos de turbilhão se combinam para torná-lo um passeio muito desagradável.
When Kyle Reese came blasting through, he was high and off-center. His body stabilized in this temporal continuum a good two meters above the ground. He hung there for a microsecond; then gravity took over and slammed him into the alley floor with a loud, flat whack.
He lay there, naked and trembling, eyes shut tight against the searing light, fists clenched against his chest, knees drawn up like an overgrown fetus. Spasms wracked every muscle in his body. After the explosion the wall of sound had ceased, leaving only the rustle of papers settling back to earth.
The sickening odor of singed hair filled Reese’s nostrils, choking him. Pain was shooting through every fiber of his body. They didn’t tell him it was going to be like this, he thought. Maybe they didn’t know. But oh, fuck ...
it hurt.
He took it slow, marshaling his resources, sipping at the ozone-filled air until he could draw real breaths. The feeling of having his nuts kicked up into his chest cavity was abating. A little. He opened his eyes and saw ghosts; afterimages of sights that had yanked at his sanity like salt-water taffy.

The rain washes a fine coating of white ash from his skin as electrical ARCS lace back and forth between the fire escapes behind him, HISSING and SPUTTERING. The sound fades, then stops altogether, to be replaced by a rising scream of animal agony.
Reese lurches to his feet and sprints across the alley.
Para um guerreiro endurecido como Reese, cair alguns pés no chão era um mero aborrecimento em comparação.
