Mark fearfully surrenders his clothes
In the original timeline, Mark Warfield[1] is the only punk that the Terminator kills offscreen[2] in the assault on him and his friends, Johnny and Rick, outside Griffith Observatory. He was initially thrown to the side after the trio drew their switchblades. The Terminator then killed Mark's friends. Out of fear, he backed himself up against a gate and complied with the T-800's demand for his clothes, which were a match to the machine's large frame. He was then killed offscreen, as James Cameron confirmed.[3]
However, in the Genisys timeline, he doesn't give up his clothes as the Terminator is interrupted by another one before he can attack the punks. Terminator Genisys
Behind the Scene[]
- Mark, credited as "Punk", was played by David Kristin in The Terminator and by Luke Sexton in Terminator Genisys. In both movies, he is the only punk who has no speaking lines.
- For unknown reasons, Kristin is uncredited in the finished film, and Brad Rearden is credited as one of the punks.
- His death was confirmed by James Cameron in the film's FAQ.[4]
- It is also worth noting that for Terminator Genisys, the filmmakers had to recreate the same clothes for the punks. However, there are still some visible differences.

- ↑ The T-800 is never shown actually killing this punk (and would be unlikely to do so unless the punk had threatened it, which clearly never occurred), so he may be the only surviving punk in the original timeline.
- ↑ Mark had the sense to start ripping his clothes off. He held out the coat as an offering, as a shield, as a desperate plea that maybe he could get a little more time ... time to get away ... get down off this mountain ... get into bed ... pull the covers over his head and wake up. He was right. The offering did buy him time. About fourteen seconds., quoted from The Terminator (Frakes novel)
