And the winner is...The Catmanthing!

Woooo!

In the movie Terminator 2, how did the Terminator played by Arnold Schwarzenegger figure out that the t-1000 had killed John Conner's stepmother and taken her place?

He asked them how the dog was and used the wrong name for the dog.

Curse your eyes and other pieces of your anatomy

Your question.

How was Siegried related to Brunhilde?

By marriage.

and?

I knew there was more, but I can't remember it.

Well I need the complete answer

And I'm saying I don't know the complete answer, so I'm waiting for someone else to answer it.

Well go look it up.

I did!

*looks up, finds watch*

Well, I looked it up.

First of all, it's Siegfried, no Siegried, but I'll let that slide because it's just a typo.
BUT there's the Norse myth, where she was a valkyre imprisoned in a mortal body and then subjected to what seems to be a combination between Sleeping Beauty and a really crappy soap opera (and where Siegfried is really called Sigurðr Sigmundson), and there's the Wagner version, which is slightly different...

I'm not getting into all of this. Here are the relevant sources:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brynhildr
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Der_Ring_des_Nibelungen

I didn't find any relation other than marriage in my skimming of these articles, unless you mean that thing she had with Gunnar/Gunther, who was the brother of Gudrun/Kriemhild, who had a thing with Sigurðr/Siegfried, even though it actually wasn't Gunnar/Gunther but Sigurðr/Siegfried who just _looked_ like him...
Told you, soap opera stuff.

I think this counts as a complete answer, anyway, no?

Here's a hint, who was Siegfried's grandfather?

Ah, she was his aunt as well!

correct...well she was his father's half sister, but yeah.

What is a policemen's lot?

Well, as I am the very model of a modern Major-General, I've information, vegetable, animal and mineral, I know the kings of England and I quote the fights historical, from marathon to waterloo, in order categorical...and I know that a policeman's lot is not a happy one.

Nicely done. Your turn.

And in the same vain.

Tell me, have you ever known what it is to be an orphan?
