An alternate coda was filmed, with an elderly Sarah and John as a US senator sitting peacefully in a park, in a future where Judgment Day never happened. Sarah would originally see a young, non-veteran Kyle Reese walking by, to whom she regrettably cannot say anything. This idea was dropped very early on, as it simply raised too many questions about how this alternate Reese could have fathered John Connor. The entire ending was ultimately deleted, in favor of a more ambiguous and less cheery ending, also because a juvenile delinquent like John could not plausibly have become a senator. The idea did survive in some form: in the novelization of the film, Sarah hires a private investigator to find Reese for her, without success.
