Scene description
John notices who the false Sarah is by looking at the feet. Due glitching, the T-1000's feet are melted together with the floor.

Reason cut
Van Ling (Creative Supervisor), in T2, the Book of the Film, An Illustrated Screenplay:
With the omission of the T-1000 glitching motif in the earlier steel mill scenes, the pivotal moment when John recognizes which Sarah is which by seeing one of the Sarah's feet melding with the floor became both confusing and unnecessary and was cut from the film. Having seen Sarah with the shotgun in a previous scene, the audience is already clued in on which Sarah is which, and John figures it out because he knows T-1000 wouldn't hesitate to shoot at him first, rather than yelling for him to get out of the way. Again, the "fusefeet" effect was filmed with the faux Sarah's feet melding with the steel grating floor rather thatn tile as scripted.

Comments
This scene is re-inserted back into the special edition version of T2.

Terminator 2 script, revised final shooting script:
209     ANOTHER, IDENTICAL, SARAH... but this one has a shotgun.
        Aimed right at us.

209A    JOHN freezes.  Which is which?  He looks down.  The first Sarah's
        feet are melded with the floor, sucking and fusing with the tiles as
        she walks.  They have the color and pattern of the tiles up to the
        knee.

                John, get out of the way!!
