1
00:00:01,102 --> 00:00:02,936
There is this woman,
she flipped a coin.

2
00:00:02,970 --> 00:00:04,405
She dared me to call it,
and I did.

3
00:00:05,173 --> 00:00:06,274
For luck.

4
00:00:08,342 --> 00:00:10,578
They're responsible, Kai.
For Reach.

5
00:00:11,145 --> 00:00:13,047
-For Vannak.
-The Covenant's responsible.

6
00:00:13,081 --> 00:00:14,615
The Covenant didn't take
our armor.

7
00:00:14,648 --> 00:00:16,484
Centuries of work can be undone

8
00:00:16,517 --> 00:00:19,053
by the smallest of oversights.

9
00:00:19,087 --> 00:00:21,822
[yells]

10
00:00:21,855 --> 00:00:23,457
How did you choose me?

11
00:00:23,491 --> 00:00:26,127
I didn't choose you.
I found you.

12
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,229
When things fall apart,
you're never there.

13
00:00:28,262 --> 00:00:29,797
You ran from
the Spartan program.

14
00:00:29,830 --> 00:00:31,499
You ran from the Rubble.

15
00:00:31,532 --> 00:00:33,834
-Who took Kessler?
-[Laera] The UNSC.

16
00:00:33,867 --> 00:00:35,469
[John]
They're still making Spartans.

17
00:00:35,503 --> 00:00:37,505
-[Laera] What is this place?
-Thermopylae.

18
00:00:37,538 --> 00:00:39,273
[Kai] Infiltrate the ship,

19
00:00:39,307 --> 00:00:41,041
deliver the Spike.

20
00:00:42,610 --> 00:00:44,412
[Kwan gasps]
I know this.

21
00:00:44,445 --> 00:00:45,879
What is it doing here?

22
00:00:47,481 --> 00:00:48,849
What is this place?

23
00:00:48,882 --> 00:00:50,918
[Halsey]
It's where it all began.

24
00:00:50,951 --> 00:00:52,920
[Miranda] Without your research,
I never would have been able

25
00:00:52,953 --> 00:00:54,455
to discover your mistake.

26
00:00:55,523 --> 00:00:57,158
[Cortana] If you were to use
the Artifact

27
00:00:57,191 --> 00:00:59,327
to project yourself back
to the Halo,

28
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:00,828
you could determine
its location in the stars.

29
00:01:00,861 --> 00:01:02,263
I can't go there without him.

30
00:01:02,296 --> 00:01:04,165
Perhaps I can help.

31
00:01:04,198 --> 00:01:06,200
[John] Cortana.

32
00:01:06,234 --> 00:01:08,136
[Cortana] The Covenant's going
to find the Halo, Chief.

33
00:01:08,169 --> 00:01:11,139
It is imperative
that you get there first.

34
00:01:11,172 --> 00:01:12,606
You need to touch the Artifact.

35
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,942
He said that you let
the whole planet burn.

36
00:01:14,975 --> 00:01:17,311
Sometimes events
are beyond our control.

37
00:01:17,345 --> 00:01:19,180
-You can't trust him.
-[Kai] But I do.

38
00:01:19,213 --> 00:01:20,648
I always have.

39
00:01:21,749 --> 00:01:23,484
[Uto 'Mdama speaking Sangheili]

40
00:01:24,685 --> 00:01:26,154
[speaking Sangheili]

41
00:01:28,156 --> 00:01:29,990
[yells]

42
00:01:32,860 --> 00:01:38,832
[dramatic music playing]

43
00:01:48,642 --> 00:01:51,110
[Makee] As a child, I came here
in my imagination.

44
00:01:52,979 --> 00:01:54,682
-I always thought it was...
-[John] A dream.

45
00:01:54,715 --> 00:01:55,816
[Makee] ...alive.

46
00:01:57,185 --> 00:01:59,287
I try to understand
what it wants from me.

47
00:02:01,555 --> 00:02:02,990
Why me?

48
00:02:04,658 --> 00:02:05,959
Why you?

49
00:02:08,896 --> 00:02:10,531
[John] Look at me.

50
00:02:19,039 --> 00:02:20,308
I saw you.

51
00:02:21,242 --> 00:02:23,311
On Reach.

52
00:02:23,344 --> 00:02:24,778
With the Sangheili.

53
00:02:24,812 --> 00:02:27,047
The Arbiter is a soldier.

54
00:02:27,881 --> 00:02:29,049
Like you.

55
00:02:29,082 --> 00:02:31,051
You brought the Covenant there.

56
00:02:31,084 --> 00:02:33,120
Millions of people.

57
00:02:33,153 --> 00:02:35,356
Gone.

58
00:02:35,389 --> 00:02:37,258
-Because of you.
-Because of war.

59
00:02:39,393 --> 00:02:41,862
If you could burn High Charity
to embers, would you hesitate?

60
00:02:41,895 --> 00:02:44,565
There's a difference.
You're human.

61
00:02:44,598 --> 00:02:46,667
Am I? Are you?

62
00:02:48,936 --> 00:02:50,871
What if there are no sides?

63
00:02:51,905 --> 00:02:53,541
Only life and death.

64
00:02:53,574 --> 00:02:54,975
Light and dark. Us and them.

65
00:02:55,008 --> 00:02:56,744
We are not the same.

66
00:03:01,181 --> 00:03:02,950
You don't believe that.

67
00:03:06,587 --> 00:03:08,389
I needed to see your eyes.

68
00:03:10,224 --> 00:03:12,793
To know that you understand
what needs to be done.

69
00:03:18,098 --> 00:03:19,633
You found it.

70
00:03:21,735 --> 00:03:23,504
You can't bring
the Covenant here.

71
00:03:23,537 --> 00:03:25,873
Do you understand?

72
00:03:25,906 --> 00:03:27,275
If they control the Halo...

73
00:03:27,308 --> 00:03:29,109
They will annihilate humankind.

74
00:03:29,142 --> 00:03:31,745
And if the humans control it,
they'll annihilate the Covenant.

75
00:03:31,779 --> 00:03:33,381
This is all they know.

76
00:03:35,316 --> 00:03:37,351
The Ring does more than destroy.

77
00:03:37,385 --> 00:03:39,520
It holds the seed
of life itself.

78
00:03:39,553 --> 00:03:41,889
We could build a world here.

79
00:03:41,922 --> 00:03:43,357
A place of peace.

80
00:03:43,391 --> 00:03:45,293
They're not gonna
let that happen.

81
00:03:45,326 --> 00:03:46,627
They don't decide.

82
00:03:48,396 --> 00:03:51,799
The Ring doesn't belong to them.
It belongs to us.

83
00:03:55,836 --> 00:03:57,338
Oh, I see it now.

84
00:03:57,838 --> 00:03:59,640
The difference between us.

85
00:04:02,242 --> 00:04:03,811
You doubt.

86
00:04:03,844 --> 00:04:06,614
[ticking music plays]

87
00:04:06,647 --> 00:04:08,616
[ominous sound]

88
00:04:09,517 --> 00:04:10,584
Move.

89
00:04:10,618 --> 00:04:12,286
You need to move.

90
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,021
[comms crackling]

91
00:04:15,022 --> 00:04:16,324
[sharp gasp]

92
00:04:16,356 --> 00:04:19,493

94
00:04:21,795 --> 00:04:22,930
[rumbling]

95
00:04:22,963 --> 00:04:24,498
Everybody out!

96
00:04:24,532 --> 00:04:25,799
[grunts]

97
00:04:25,832 --> 00:04:26,967

98
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,068
[blade sizzles]

00:04:28,101 --> 00:04:29,337

103
00:04:34,308 --> 00:04:36,577

104
00:04:36,610 --> 00:04:38,812

00:05:44,044 --> 00:05:45,345
[yells]

117
00:05:45,379 --> 00:05:47,415
-[heavy thud]
-[dying breath]

118
00:05:47,448 --> 00:05:49,182
[breathing heavily]

119
00:05:51,952 --> 00:05:53,521
[Cortana] Did you find it?

120
00:05:54,722 --> 00:05:56,890
[Makee]
The map. Show me.

121
00:05:59,226 --> 00:06:01,261
[uplifting music playing]

122
00:06:14,542 --> 00:06:15,743
[Makee] There.

123
00:06:19,613 --> 00:06:22,115
[dramatic music playing]

124
00:07:17,705 --> 00:07:20,240
[indistinct chatter]

125
00:07:20,273 --> 00:07:21,909
I take it your strike team

126
00:07:21,942 --> 00:07:23,944
has failed to locate
Master Chief.

127
00:07:23,977 --> 00:07:26,146
Allow me to help you.
He's with the Artifact.

128
00:07:26,179 --> 00:07:27,414
[Ackerson] Captain Briggs's
team was moving in

129
00:07:27,447 --> 00:07:29,116
on the target when--

130
00:07:29,149 --> 00:07:31,485
If people learn that Master
Chief in fact is not dead,

131
00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:33,487
it'll lead
to inconvenient questions

132
00:07:33,521 --> 00:07:35,022
about Reach, don't you think?

133
00:07:35,055 --> 00:07:37,057
About who knew what, and when.

134
00:07:37,791 --> 00:07:39,927
Well, we won't have
to worry about that.

135
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,629
Did you say "we"?

136
00:07:41,662 --> 00:07:44,131
You were in charge.

137
00:07:44,164 --> 00:07:45,866
Acting on your orders.

138
00:07:47,234 --> 00:07:50,771
But I'm not even in the ONI.

139
00:07:50,804 --> 00:07:52,706
What's taking so long?
Where's the feed?

140
00:07:52,740 --> 00:07:54,775
[Smith]
Coming back online now, ma'am.

141
00:07:54,808 --> 00:07:56,343
Signal reacquired, ma'am.

142
00:07:56,376 --> 00:07:57,811
We're tracking
the Covenant Cruiser.

143
00:07:57,845 --> 00:08:00,748
It just exited slipspace
in the Soell system.

144
00:08:03,250 --> 00:08:05,052
That's a Covenant battle group.

145
00:08:06,486 --> 00:08:09,723
That's the entire First Fleet
of Solemn Accord.

146
00:08:11,825 --> 00:08:13,894
-What's wrong with it?
-It's the signal, ma'am.

147
00:08:13,927 --> 00:08:15,295
There's significant energy

148
00:08:15,328 --> 00:08:17,197
coming from the center
of that system.

149
00:08:17,230 --> 00:08:19,767
Solar flare. Nova activity.
Black hole.

150
00:08:21,869 --> 00:08:23,470
Contact Admiral Stanforth

151
00:08:23,503 --> 00:08:26,006
to dispatch the UNSC fleet
from Sector 3.

152
00:08:26,039 --> 00:08:27,775
Ready the Spartan-IIIs.

153
00:08:29,943 --> 00:08:33,179
My Spartan-IIIs were trained
to execute specialized missions.

154
00:08:33,212 --> 00:08:34,982
I thought you said
they were ready?

155
00:08:35,015 --> 00:08:36,984
They're elite soldiers.

156
00:08:37,017 --> 00:08:39,419
They're not designed to assault
a Covenant fleet without--

157
00:08:39,452 --> 00:08:42,255
It's your job to prepare them.
I decide how they're used.

158
00:08:43,256 --> 00:08:46,393
Now, if there's nothing else,
I suggest you find him.

159
00:08:54,902 --> 00:08:56,737
It's not a black hole.

160
00:08:58,606 --> 00:09:00,040
[door chimes]

161
00:09:02,943 --> 00:09:05,779

00:09:05,813 --> 00:09:07,781
[door chimes and slides open]

163
00:09:09,449 --> 00:09:12,753
[heavy footsteps]

164
00:09:12,786 --> 00:09:17,424
[quietly suspenseful
music plays]

165
00:09:17,457 --> 00:09:18,759
[door slides open]

166
00:09:18,792 --> 00:09:21,094
[Briggs]
John-117, stop where you are.

167
00:09:23,631 --> 00:09:25,098
On your knees.

168
00:09:25,132 --> 00:09:26,700
We have orders to take you in.

169
00:09:26,734 --> 00:09:28,301
Those aren't your orders.

170
00:09:28,335 --> 00:09:30,170
He's resisting.
Take him down.

171
00:09:31,238 --> 00:09:33,173
I said take him down.

172
00:09:34,742 --> 00:09:36,009
Shoot him.

173
00:09:38,746 --> 00:09:41,114
I've been on that side
of the gun.

174
00:09:42,182 --> 00:09:43,951
I didn't ask questions.

175
00:09:43,984 --> 00:09:45,385
I didn't want to know.

176
00:09:45,418 --> 00:09:46,787
[Briggs] Pull the trigger!

177
00:09:46,820 --> 00:09:49,389
But we always know, don't we?

178
00:09:49,422 --> 00:09:50,891
I gave you an order, Lieutenant.

179
00:09:50,924 --> 00:09:52,392
She knows you can't take
a bullet back.

180
00:09:52,425 --> 00:09:54,628
That's why she wants it
to be yours.

181
00:09:54,662 --> 00:09:56,163
But if you're gonna kill me...

182
00:09:57,665 --> 00:09:59,667
at least look me in the eyes.

183
00:10:06,206 --> 00:10:09,309
What are you doing?
I said engage!

184
00:10:10,811 --> 00:10:11,879
Do it yourself.

185
00:10:15,849 --> 00:10:17,685
Stop right there!

186
00:10:20,988 --> 00:10:22,389
Didn't ask for your help.

187
00:10:24,124 --> 00:10:25,959
[Kai]
Were you gonna do it?

188
00:10:25,993 --> 00:10:29,296
[doors clack and whirr]

189
00:10:30,563 --> 00:10:32,933
[Miranda] This structure might
not be stable, we should go.

190
00:10:32,966 --> 00:10:34,601
[Halsey]
We're not going anywhere.

191
00:10:34,634 --> 00:10:37,771
Whoever designed this complex
built the Halo.

192
00:10:37,805 --> 00:10:39,372
What is this place?

193
00:10:39,406 --> 00:10:41,775
It's a repository for knowledge,
like a library.

194
00:10:41,809 --> 00:10:43,343
Or a religious site.

195
00:10:43,376 --> 00:10:45,946
[Halsey] As the original
lead scientist on this project,

196
00:10:45,979 --> 00:10:48,181
I can assure you
it is a library.

197
00:10:48,215 --> 00:10:49,983
As you can see
from the node walls...

198
00:10:50,017 --> 00:10:51,785
[Miranda] Like you'd find
in a church or a chapel.

199
00:10:51,819 --> 00:10:53,120
Got it.

200
00:10:53,153 --> 00:10:54,421
You have no idea.

201
00:10:55,422 --> 00:10:56,824
Thanks.

202
00:10:58,926 --> 00:11:00,728
You said something
about a mistake.

203
00:11:00,761 --> 00:11:02,295
[Miranda] Did I?

204
00:11:02,329 --> 00:11:04,231
[Halsey]
Yes, you said I made a mistake.

205
00:11:04,264 --> 00:11:06,900
[Miranda] When you solved the
first cipher back in the day,

206
00:11:06,934 --> 00:11:10,370
you did so according
to your own familiar principles.

207
00:11:10,403 --> 00:11:12,005
Data, mathematics.

208
00:11:12,039 --> 00:11:14,007
And you unlocked
the first alcove.

209
00:11:14,708 --> 00:11:17,544
-Simple.
-It wasn't that simple.

210
00:11:17,577 --> 00:11:20,547
-It took me weeks to solve it.
-It took you four months.

211
00:11:20,580 --> 00:11:22,015
I have your notes, remember?

212
00:11:22,049 --> 00:11:24,051
[loud rumbling]

213
00:11:24,084 --> 00:11:25,652
You opened this one.

214
00:11:25,685 --> 00:11:28,255
But what you overlooked
is that the cipher

215
00:11:28,288 --> 00:11:30,223
isn't just mathematical.

216
00:11:30,257 --> 00:11:33,193
It's also linguistic.

217
00:11:34,194 --> 00:11:36,997
In this case,
a complex ideographic system

218
00:11:37,030 --> 00:11:39,532
with a number of logographic
traits, some phonemes...

219
00:11:39,566 --> 00:11:41,568
Do you think this will take
a long time?

220
00:11:42,402 --> 00:11:44,104
It'll take less
than four months.

221
00:11:45,405 --> 00:11:48,040
[thud, loud rumble]

222
00:11:51,311 --> 00:11:52,579
[mysterious hiss]

223
00:11:52,612 --> 00:11:54,247
[Halsey exhales]

224
00:11:54,281 --> 00:11:55,715
What was inside?

225
00:11:55,749 --> 00:11:57,250
You first.

226
00:11:59,086 --> 00:12:01,288
Whatever you found
wasn't in your notes.

227
00:12:02,389 --> 00:12:03,456
Tell me.

228
00:12:04,424 --> 00:12:05,558
DNA.

229
00:12:06,894 --> 00:12:08,461
Theirs.

230
00:12:08,495 --> 00:12:10,163
And ours.

231
00:12:11,464 --> 00:12:12,732
[gasps softly]

232
00:12:12,766 --> 00:12:17,771
[dramatic music playing]

233
00:12:20,941 --> 00:12:22,475
[overlapping chatter]

234
00:12:22,509 --> 00:12:23,911
[Jones] I have the commander
of the lead Condor.

235
00:12:23,944 --> 00:12:25,712
-Name's Bookman.
-Put him through.

236
00:12:25,745 --> 00:12:28,315
[surrounding chatter continues]

237
00:12:28,348 --> 00:12:31,484
Commander Bookman,
this is Admiral Parangosky.

238
00:12:31,518 --> 00:12:32,820
Can your team hear me?

239
00:12:32,853 --> 00:12:34,087
[Bookman, over P.A.]
Yes, ma'am.

240
00:12:34,121 --> 00:12:35,655
Our enemy's about to learn

241
00:12:35,688 --> 00:12:38,158
that there's a cost
to tangling with humanity.

242
00:12:38,191 --> 00:12:40,293
I'm asking you
to deliver the bill.

243
00:12:41,294 --> 00:12:43,063
-Can you do that for me?
-Yes, ma'am.

244
00:12:43,096 --> 00:12:45,232
Arrow Team, make ready.
On my mark.

245
00:12:45,265 --> 00:12:46,766
Godspeed.

246
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:47,868
Spartans on the beam.

247
00:12:48,768 --> 00:12:49,970
[combat sounds]

248
00:12:50,203 --> 00:12:51,972
-[loud crash]
-[static crackles, alarm beeps]

249
00:12:52,005 --> 00:12:54,507
[Jones] Condor-Hotel-Tango-3,
come in.

250
00:12:54,540 --> 00:12:56,443
[background chatter]

251
00:12:56,476 --> 00:12:59,947
Condor-Charlie-November-2
radio check.

252
00:12:59,980 --> 00:13:02,983
All assassin Condors,
this TAC-CON ONYX, over.

253
00:13:04,284 --> 00:13:07,020
Any Assassin Condors, respond.

254
00:13:07,054 --> 00:13:08,188
Deploy the second wave.

255
00:13:08,221 --> 00:13:09,990
-[officer] Yes, Admiral.
-What?

256
00:13:10,023 --> 00:13:11,491
No, the first wave
just got obliterated

257
00:13:11,524 --> 00:13:12,692
and now you're sending more?

258
00:13:12,725 --> 00:13:14,094
What do you expect will happen?

259
00:13:14,127 --> 00:13:15,963
I expect they'll follow
their orders.

260
00:13:17,664 --> 00:13:19,499
Admiral...

261
00:13:19,532 --> 00:13:21,001
don't do this.

262
00:13:21,869 --> 00:13:24,104
Tell me the moment
our Condors exit slipspace.

263
00:13:24,137 --> 00:13:25,772
[Ackerson]
This is unsound.

264
00:13:25,805 --> 00:13:28,475
How many Spartan-IIIs
are you willing to sacrifice?

265
00:13:28,508 --> 00:13:29,642
All of them.

266
00:13:31,011 --> 00:13:32,512
This isn't just another battle.

267
00:13:32,545 --> 00:13:34,982
What do you think
is at the center of that system?

268
00:13:35,015 --> 00:13:37,250
If the Covenant
takes the Halo...

269
00:13:38,418 --> 00:13:40,520
we won't live
to fight another day.

270
00:13:40,553 --> 00:13:42,822
There will be no more days.

271
00:13:42,856 --> 00:13:48,828
[ominous music plays]

272
00:13:49,596 --> 00:13:51,798
[Ackerson draws sharp breath]

273
00:13:53,833 --> 00:13:57,570
[footsteps]

274
00:13:57,604 --> 00:13:59,172
[dull clank]

275
00:13:59,206 --> 00:14:00,673
[Laera] Where are we going?

276
00:14:03,010 --> 00:14:05,946
They brought us to a place
just like this.

277
00:14:05,979 --> 00:14:07,214
We were kids.

278
00:14:08,081 --> 00:14:12,152
Our trainers told us
that the objective

279
00:14:12,185 --> 00:14:14,121
was to defend the pass.

280
00:14:15,155 --> 00:14:16,556
But that wasn't it.

281
00:14:18,325 --> 00:14:20,260
What was the objective?

282
00:14:20,293 --> 00:14:24,131
To learn... what it meant
to call yourself a Spartan.

283
00:14:24,965 --> 00:14:26,533
I fought with everything I had.

284
00:14:27,500 --> 00:14:30,503
But they were soldiers.
They were too big, too fast.

285
00:14:30,537 --> 00:14:32,172
They had batons.

286
00:14:32,973 --> 00:14:37,310
You had two options--
stand and bleed, or run.

287
00:14:37,344 --> 00:14:38,545
Most ran.

288
00:14:39,512 --> 00:14:41,881
Until you're in
that situation...

289
00:14:41,915 --> 00:14:43,616
[weapon clacking]

290
00:14:43,650 --> 00:14:46,686
...you don't know what kind
of person you are.

291
00:14:46,719 --> 00:14:48,488
I wasn't brave.

292
00:14:49,356 --> 00:14:52,492
I just kept moving forward

293
00:14:52,525 --> 00:14:55,963
when others went back.

294
00:14:55,996 --> 00:14:58,698
By the third night,
there were only five of us left:

295
00:14:58,731 --> 00:15:01,434
Me. Riz.

296
00:15:02,435 --> 00:15:04,804
Vannak. Kai.

297
00:15:04,837 --> 00:15:06,073
John.

298
00:15:06,106 --> 00:15:09,242
[wind howls]

299
00:15:09,276 --> 00:15:13,213
So we stood together.

300
00:15:14,047 --> 00:15:16,849
[muffled blows]

301
00:15:18,018 --> 00:15:20,020
And we fought together.

302
00:15:20,053 --> 00:15:21,688
[muffled blows]

303
00:15:23,923 --> 00:15:25,192
And we lost...

304
00:15:27,860 --> 00:15:29,096
together.

305
00:15:37,637 --> 00:15:39,939
What are we gonna do
about Kessler?

306
00:15:44,611 --> 00:15:46,113
Nothing.

307
00:15:46,146 --> 00:15:47,380
What?

308
00:15:47,414 --> 00:15:50,550
Tonight is his.

309
00:15:50,583 --> 00:15:51,618
What are you saying?

310
00:15:51,651 --> 00:15:53,620
If we take this away from him,

311
00:15:53,653 --> 00:15:55,422
he'll never know
which person he is.

312
00:15:56,556 --> 00:15:58,125
What the hell
did they do to you?

313
00:15:58,158 --> 00:15:59,592
If you mean by "they,"

314
00:15:59,626 --> 00:16:02,095
the people who stood by me
no matter what?

315
00:16:02,129 --> 00:16:04,097
I stand by you no matter what!

316
00:16:09,636 --> 00:16:12,272
All that time you were
obsessing about Halsey,

317
00:16:13,406 --> 00:16:15,475
you weren't trying
to bring her to justice.

318
00:16:16,609 --> 00:16:18,511
You were trying
to find your way back.

319
00:16:20,347 --> 00:16:23,050
It meant something,
being a Spartan.

320
00:16:23,083 --> 00:16:25,785
You are not a Spartan.

321
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,157
You have a life.

322
00:16:31,658 --> 00:16:33,126
You have a marriage.

323
00:16:34,027 --> 00:16:35,428
You have a son.

324
00:16:37,330 --> 00:16:39,966
And I'll be damned
if anyone's going to hurt him.

325
00:16:41,034 --> 00:16:42,635
He doesn't belong here.

326
00:16:42,669 --> 00:16:45,004
I won't let them
turn him into a killer.

327
00:16:45,038 --> 00:16:46,639
And I won't let you.

328
00:16:46,673 --> 00:16:48,341
-Laera...
-[Laera] Don't!

329
00:16:48,375 --> 00:16:50,977
[footsteps recede]

00:16:51,010 --> 00:16:54,381

[weapons clatter]

332
00:17:01,054 --> 00:17:02,489
Slow down.

333
00:17:02,522 --> 00:17:04,191
I can't feel my fingers.

334
00:17:04,223 --> 00:17:06,193
Take a breath.

335
00:17:06,226 --> 00:17:07,294
You're all right.

336
00:17:08,328 --> 00:17:09,762
I'm gonna mess this up.

337
00:17:09,796 --> 00:17:11,631
[nearby equipment whirrs]

338
00:17:11,664 --> 00:17:13,266
I screwed up
the last simulation.

339
00:17:13,300 --> 00:17:14,634
Take it easy.

340
00:17:14,666 --> 00:17:16,868
You're okay.

341
00:17:16,903 --> 00:17:18,871
[sniffles]

342
00:17:18,905 --> 00:17:20,540
I'm pretty sure I'm gonna die.

343
00:17:22,842 --> 00:17:25,512
You're just scared
of being scared.

344
00:17:26,646 --> 00:17:28,881
When that plasma starts flying,

345
00:17:28,915 --> 00:17:31,218
you won't have time
to be scared for yourself.

346
00:17:32,219 --> 00:17:35,655
Because you'll be scared for me,
and I'll be scared for you.

347
00:17:37,224 --> 00:17:39,359
I'll be watching
your ass every minute.

348
00:17:40,026 --> 00:17:42,095
So you better be watching mine.

349
00:17:45,432 --> 00:17:46,566
Copy?

350
00:17:49,702 --> 00:17:50,837
Yeah.

351
00:17:50,870 --> 00:17:53,673

[indistinct P.A. announcement]

354
00:17:58,745 --> 00:17:59,812
[Kai] John.

355
00:17:59,846 --> 00:18:03,483
[marching footsteps]

356
00:18:03,516 --> 00:18:05,685
Look, this isn't all on me.

357
00:18:05,718 --> 00:18:07,320
You lied to us.

358
00:18:07,354 --> 00:18:09,722
You put us in harm's way.
You got us grounded.

359
00:18:12,559 --> 00:18:15,027
I tried to help you,
but you wouldn't listen.

360
00:18:15,061 --> 00:18:17,430
What was I supposed to do?
I had to make a call.

361
00:18:17,464 --> 00:18:19,432
You made the wrong call.

362
00:18:20,933 --> 00:18:23,370
You trusted people
who wanted us dead.

363
00:18:27,407 --> 00:18:30,210
I made a mistake.

364
00:18:30,243 --> 00:18:31,778
Maybe you don't know
what that feels like,

365
00:18:31,811 --> 00:18:33,112
but that's what humans do.

366
00:18:33,146 --> 00:18:34,414
They make mistakes.

367
00:18:36,048 --> 00:18:37,750
But we shouldn't be here.

368
00:18:40,052 --> 00:18:41,754
Where are we going?

369
00:18:41,788 --> 00:18:43,856
-John?
-I need my suit.

370
00:18:43,890 --> 00:18:45,592
-You don't know where it is?
-No.

371
00:18:45,625 --> 00:18:47,026
But she does.

372
00:18:47,059 --> 00:18:49,396
[footsteps]

373
00:18:49,429 --> 00:18:51,698
[Halsey] Even then, I understood
what it meant.

374
00:18:51,731 --> 00:18:54,701
The DNA I found in that vault
was both human and not.

375
00:18:54,734 --> 00:18:57,204
-A mutation?
-[Halsey] A possibility.

376
00:18:57,237 --> 00:18:59,138
An invitation to unlock

377
00:18:59,172 --> 00:19:01,308
the full potential
of our species.

378
00:19:01,341 --> 00:19:03,243
So, I started looking.

379
00:19:03,276 --> 00:19:05,044
I assembled a team.

380
00:19:05,077 --> 00:19:08,381
We scoured the galaxy for those
people who exhibited traces

381
00:19:08,415 --> 00:19:10,149
of the genetic sequence
that I found here.

382
00:19:10,183 --> 00:19:11,651
You took children.

383
00:19:13,653 --> 00:19:15,322
I needed Spartans.

384
00:19:15,355 --> 00:19:16,789
We all did.

385
00:19:16,823 --> 00:19:18,425
Who else knows about this?

386
00:19:22,529 --> 00:19:24,096
[Halsey]
Show me what you found.

387
00:19:24,130 --> 00:19:25,365
[soft exhalation]

388
00:19:27,534 --> 00:19:29,135
[rummaging sound]

389
00:19:32,439 --> 00:19:34,474
[Miranda] Whatever it is,
it must be valuable.

390
00:19:38,645 --> 00:19:39,812
[sighs]

391
00:19:44,617 --> 00:19:47,053
[dramatic music playing]

392
00:20:05,538 --> 00:20:09,242
Computer, give me
the same simulation parameters.

393
00:20:10,209 --> 00:20:11,578
Expand scale.

394
00:20:12,345 --> 00:20:13,513
Planetary.

395
00:20:14,514 --> 00:20:15,782
Initiate.

396
00:20:15,815 --> 00:20:18,485

397
00:20:20,887 --> 00:20:22,255
Expand scale.

398
00:20:23,089 --> 00:20:24,324
Star system.

399
00:20:25,224 --> 00:20:26,293
Initiate.

400
00:20:26,326 --> 00:20:29,061
[low, powerful whirr]

401
00:20:33,433 --> 00:20:34,767
[sharp gasp]

402
00:20:40,206 --> 00:20:41,541
Thank you, Cortana.

403
00:20:41,574 --> 00:20:43,242
Wait. John. No.

404
00:20:43,276 --> 00:20:44,344
John...

405
00:20:44,377 --> 00:20:45,678
[grunts]

406
00:20:46,546 --> 00:20:47,980
[groaning]

407
00:20:48,014 --> 00:20:49,416
[John]
Give me one reason

408
00:20:49,449 --> 00:20:51,418
why I shouldn't kill this guy
right now.

409
00:20:51,451 --> 00:20:53,553
Honestly nothing comes to mind.

410
00:20:53,586 --> 00:20:55,221
[grunting]
John.

411
00:20:57,524 --> 00:21:01,394
Where is my armor?

412
00:21:01,428 --> 00:21:03,496
[strained speech]
I know where it is!

413
00:21:03,530 --> 00:21:05,532
I can get it for you.

414
00:21:05,565 --> 00:21:06,899
Tell me.

415
00:21:06,933 --> 00:21:08,868
It's behind a biometric lock!

416
00:21:08,901 --> 00:21:10,503
We need his face.

417
00:21:10,537 --> 00:21:12,639
Hmm? Attached?

418
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,208
[groaning]

419
00:21:16,242 --> 00:21:17,710
[grunts]

420
00:21:18,711 --> 00:21:21,414
[Ackerson] Parangosky lied
about the Spike.

421
00:21:21,448 --> 00:21:24,517
It doesn't do what we told them.

422
00:21:24,551 --> 00:21:25,952
[John] Let's go.

423
00:21:26,653 --> 00:21:28,254
It's not an override.

424
00:21:28,287 --> 00:21:31,391
The virus compresses
the ship's fusion drive,

425
00:21:31,424 --> 00:21:33,460
creating a reaction
powerful enough

426
00:21:33,493 --> 00:21:35,595
to incinerate everything
within a million miles.

427
00:21:35,628 --> 00:21:38,698
-Wait, what?
-Their fleet. Our fleet.

428
00:21:38,731 --> 00:21:40,933
Perhaps even the Halo itself.

429
00:21:41,568 --> 00:21:43,403
Parangosky's throwing
Spartan-IIIs

430
00:21:43,436 --> 00:21:44,937
at the Covenant fleet in swarms

431
00:21:44,971 --> 00:21:47,039
because she doesn't need
all of them to make it.

432
00:21:47,073 --> 00:21:49,809
She just needs one.

433
00:21:51,143 --> 00:21:53,813
One team. One Spike.

434
00:21:53,846 --> 00:21:55,948
One ship.

435
00:21:55,982 --> 00:21:59,151
The Spartans are Parangosky's
insurance policy.

436
00:21:59,185 --> 00:22:01,220
Her fail-safe.

437
00:22:01,253 --> 00:22:03,623
If we lose this battle
against the Covenant,

438
00:22:03,656 --> 00:22:05,157
we won't get the Halo.

439
00:22:05,191 --> 00:22:08,327
But with Parangosky's Spike,
neither will they.

440
00:22:10,697 --> 00:22:12,932
Since when do you care
about Spartans?

441
00:22:15,034 --> 00:22:17,637
These Spartans
are my life's work.

442
00:22:21,941 --> 00:22:23,175
I've heard that before.

443
00:22:23,209 --> 00:22:28,114
[dramatic music plays]

444
00:22:31,350 --> 00:22:32,985
[Miranda]
What happened?

445
00:22:34,220 --> 00:22:35,455
To my father?

446
00:22:41,794 --> 00:22:43,530
They say he stayed behind.

447
00:22:43,563 --> 00:22:44,897
On Reach.

448
00:22:47,133 --> 00:22:48,701
You know your father.

449
00:22:50,136 --> 00:22:51,671
He would never leave.

450
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,443
Survivors are scattered
all over the galaxy.

451
00:22:56,476 --> 00:22:58,377
Can't be sure
he's not one of them.

452
00:23:01,013 --> 00:23:02,381
I saw it.

453
00:23:04,250 --> 00:23:06,385
Miranda, I-- I saw him.

454
00:23:07,987 --> 00:23:09,321
At the end.

455
00:23:12,191 --> 00:23:13,392
[sighs]

456
00:23:13,426 --> 00:23:14,594
Oh.

457
00:23:15,662 --> 00:23:17,430
[Halsey]
W-Wait, Miranda.

00:23:28,875 --> 00:23:30,543

[soft chuckle]

466
00:23:50,296 --> 00:23:52,465
[whispers]
Now that's something.

467
00:23:53,900 --> 00:23:56,235
Not just math.
Not just language.

468
00:23:59,472 --> 00:24:01,373
These are stars.

469
00:24:01,407 --> 00:24:04,944

[dramatic music plays]

476
00:25:00,867 --> 00:25:02,301
I couldn't save him.

477
00:25:07,707 --> 00:25:11,778
Vannak looked at me
and he didn't understand...

478
00:25:12,945 --> 00:25:15,414
how he got there.

479
00:25:15,447 --> 00:25:17,216
He wasn't scared.

480
00:25:18,951 --> 00:25:20,587
He just didn't understand.

481
00:25:23,089 --> 00:25:24,891
[Ackerson]
What are we going to do?

482
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,497
Well, I came here
to punch a hole in your chest.

483
00:25:32,331 --> 00:25:34,801
Watch the life drain out of you,
like my friend.

484
00:25:39,672 --> 00:25:41,608
I didn't give the orders
on Reach.

485
00:25:41,641 --> 00:25:43,275
[Kai]
But you followed them.

486
00:25:44,310 --> 00:25:46,112
And I followed you.

487
00:25:52,451 --> 00:25:55,788
You are going to tell everybody

488
00:25:55,822 --> 00:25:59,792
what Parangosky did on Reach.

489
00:26:02,294 --> 00:26:03,429
And then you're gonna
tell the truth

490
00:26:03,462 --> 00:26:04,997
about what you did too.

491
00:26:05,665 --> 00:26:08,735
It'll be my word against hers.
I don't have proof.

492
00:26:08,768 --> 00:26:10,269
I'm the proof.

493
00:26:10,302 --> 00:26:13,072
The moment I walk out of here
in that suit,

494
00:26:13,105 --> 00:26:16,508
everything that Parangosky did,
everything she said,

495
00:26:16,542 --> 00:26:18,144
it all becomes a lie.

496
00:26:20,947 --> 00:26:23,482
I'll be destroyed too.

497
00:26:23,515 --> 00:26:26,285
It all costs something.

498
00:26:26,318 --> 00:26:28,320
Even when you can't see it.

499
00:26:29,321 --> 00:26:31,390
That's what you people
never understand.

500
00:26:32,458 --> 00:26:34,326
Somebody always pays.

501
00:26:35,628 --> 00:26:37,029
This time, it's you.

502
00:26:38,464 --> 00:26:40,166

503
00:26:45,171 --> 00:26:46,472

[faint ringing sound]

505
00:27:04,090 --> 00:27:06,826
[Halsey] That constellation
is Veles's Net.

506
00:27:07,894 --> 00:27:09,061
Yeah.

507
00:27:10,763 --> 00:27:12,665
And that's Loviatar's Wing.

508
00:27:16,568 --> 00:27:18,838
And the Grand Cross
is the final piece.

509
00:27:26,178 --> 00:27:27,714
Nothing's happening.

510
00:27:28,948 --> 00:27:30,817
We must have missed something.

511
00:27:30,850 --> 00:27:32,885
The cipher's a test.

512
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:37,489
Do we share their understanding
of mathematics?

513
00:27:37,523 --> 00:27:38,758
Biology?

514
00:27:40,426 --> 00:27:42,128
Do we communicate
the way they did?

515
00:27:43,295 --> 00:27:46,632
Do we explore
the way they explored?

516
00:27:48,968 --> 00:27:50,703
Are we curious?

517
00:27:52,471 --> 00:27:53,940
It's not a map.

518
00:27:56,608 --> 00:27:57,810
It's a clock.

519
00:28:01,147 --> 00:28:02,882
What?

520
00:28:02,915 --> 00:28:06,052
[Kwan] It projects the stars as
they are, as we see them, but...

521
00:28:07,086 --> 00:28:09,055
this isn't their sky.

522
00:28:18,564 --> 00:28:20,132
[Halsey]
What are you doing?

523
00:28:21,834 --> 00:28:22,935
Stars...

524
00:28:26,238 --> 00:28:27,940
they move over time.

525
00:28:27,974 --> 00:28:31,243
Millions of years.

526
00:28:39,118 --> 00:28:41,587
How do you know where they go?

527
00:28:41,620 --> 00:28:44,056
I've seen it before.

528
00:28:44,090 --> 00:28:45,524
[Miranda]
Seen what?

529
00:28:47,459 --> 00:28:49,361
[Kwan] Their stars.

530
00:28:54,500 --> 00:28:56,235
It was like a dream.

531
00:28:56,268 --> 00:28:59,171
[mystical music playing]

532
00:29:35,207 --> 00:29:37,609
-Wait.
-[Halsey] You must be joking!

[gasps softly]

535
00:30:01,834 --> 00:30:03,836
Wait, what if...

536
00:30:09,876 --> 00:30:12,178
[quiet music playing]

537
00:30:12,211 --> 00:30:13,880
Are you coming or not?

538
00:30:16,748 --> 00:30:18,985
[Kai]
You know what we have to do.

539
00:30:19,018 --> 00:30:22,588
-It's not that simple.
-You heard what Ackerson said.

540
00:30:22,621 --> 00:30:25,057
Parangosky's throwing
the Spartan-IIIs into the fire.

541
00:30:25,091 --> 00:30:27,559
-We gotta go with them.
-I can't come with you.

542
00:30:27,593 --> 00:30:29,528
Why not?

543
00:30:29,561 --> 00:30:31,430
Because Parangosky's right, Kai.

544
00:30:31,463 --> 00:30:32,764
What are you talking about?

545
00:30:32,798 --> 00:30:34,500
I'm not saying
it doesn't matter.

546
00:30:34,533 --> 00:30:35,868
I'm not saying it doesn't hurt.

547
00:30:35,902 --> 00:30:37,369
But if we lose the Halo...

548
00:30:37,403 --> 00:30:38,905
You heard what he said.

549
00:30:38,938 --> 00:30:40,706
We're talking
about an entire fleet.

550
00:30:40,739 --> 00:30:44,443
I'm talking about
the end of everything.

551
00:30:44,476 --> 00:30:46,178
The Halo has more
than one purpose,

552
00:30:46,212 --> 00:30:48,915
but in the wrong hands,
it is a weapon.

553
00:30:50,382 --> 00:30:51,817
I'm going with them.

554
00:30:53,119 --> 00:30:55,287
They're mine.

555
00:30:55,321 --> 00:30:57,089
I can't let them go alone.

556
00:30:58,257 --> 00:30:59,825
I need to be there.

557
00:31:00,659 --> 00:31:02,061
I know.

558
00:31:06,933 --> 00:31:08,500
If it comes down to it...

559
00:31:11,437 --> 00:31:13,305
and it's you

560
00:31:13,339 --> 00:31:15,241
with that Spike in your hand...

561
00:31:18,477 --> 00:31:20,412
Just get to the Halo.

562
00:31:21,247 --> 00:31:22,648
No matter what.

563
00:31:25,684 --> 00:31:27,153
[door slides open]

564
00:31:28,687 --> 00:31:29,755
[door slides closed]

565
00:31:30,422 --> 00:31:32,291
[dramatic music playing]

566
00:31:33,859 --> 00:31:35,261
[Kwan] Those symbols.

567
00:31:35,294 --> 00:31:37,029
What does it say?

568
00:31:38,597 --> 00:31:40,399
I haven't seen that one before.

569
00:31:40,432 --> 00:31:42,568
The central segment looks
like the ideograph

570
00:31:42,601 --> 00:31:45,171
for "growth" or "rebirth,"
but the symbol at the top

571
00:31:45,204 --> 00:31:47,439
usually has negative
connotations.

572
00:31:47,473 --> 00:31:48,807
Given the positioning,

573
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,609
maybe it modifies
the other symbol.

574
00:31:50,642 --> 00:31:56,648
It could mean anything.
Change. Division. Decay.

575
00:32:02,121 --> 00:32:03,822
-[lock tumbles]
-[laughs]

576
00:32:03,855 --> 00:32:06,392
[loud clanking]

577
00:32:08,660 --> 00:32:11,964
[ringing sound]

578
00:32:18,404 --> 00:32:20,372
[faint ringing sound]

579
00:32:20,406 --> 00:32:21,540
[Halsey sighs]

580
00:32:25,144 --> 00:32:26,745
[Kwan]
It's a tomb.

581
00:32:27,579 --> 00:32:29,148
It's not a tomb.

582
00:32:30,149 --> 00:32:31,750
It's a laboratory.

583
00:32:46,398 --> 00:32:47,833
And that...

584
00:32:56,175 --> 00:32:57,909
It's a scientist.

585
00:33:00,912 --> 00:33:02,548
[Miranda] It's almost human.

586
00:33:06,785 --> 00:33:08,854
Don't touch it.

587
00:33:08,887 --> 00:33:10,356
There's something in its hand.

588
00:33:13,892 --> 00:33:15,161
[Kwan] Wait.

589
00:33:15,194 --> 00:33:16,662
[crackling]

590
00:33:16,695 --> 00:33:18,164
[panting]

591
00:33:18,197 --> 00:33:23,202
[glass crackling]

592
00:33:23,235 --> 00:33:25,537
-[rumbling]
-[Kwan] We need to move.

593
00:33:25,571 --> 00:33:27,339
Halsey, let's go.

594
00:33:27,373 --> 00:33:28,740
[gasps]

595
00:33:28,774 --> 00:33:30,509
-Get out!
-[Halsey] No, Miranda...

596
00:33:30,542 --> 00:33:34,180
[ominous music rises]

597
00:33:34,213 --> 00:33:35,547
Move!

598
00:33:36,582 --> 00:33:39,051
[ominous music playing]

599
00:33:44,623 --> 00:33:46,825
-[Halsey] Look.
-Halsey!

600
00:33:48,794 --> 00:33:50,296
Look at this...

601
00:33:50,329 --> 00:33:52,264
-Halsey!
-Can you see?

602
00:33:52,298 --> 00:33:54,966
[Miranda]
We have to go! Halsey!

603
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,002
Come on! Come on!
Let's go!

604
00:33:57,903 --> 00:33:59,605
Mom!

605
00:33:59,638 --> 00:34:00,906
Please.

606
00:34:02,408 --> 00:34:04,476
[suspenseful music playing]

607
00:34:08,179 --> 00:34:09,281
[grunts]

608
00:34:14,686 --> 00:34:16,788
We have to get back there.
That was a city.

609
00:34:16,822 --> 00:34:18,056
A city.

610
00:34:18,090 --> 00:34:19,757
Imagine the technology,

611
00:34:19,791 --> 00:34:21,659
the ingenuity required
to build that--

612
00:34:21,693 --> 00:34:23,929
-What's happening?
-[Halsey] It's beautiful.

613
00:34:24,830 --> 00:34:25,897
It's spreading.

614
00:34:25,931 --> 00:34:27,466
It's their history.

615
00:34:28,100 --> 00:34:30,902
The story of their empire
expanding.

616
00:34:30,936 --> 00:34:33,105
All these worlds they knew.

617
00:34:35,974 --> 00:34:37,275
Growth.

618
00:34:37,309 --> 00:34:39,110
-What's wrong?
-It's real.

619
00:34:39,145 --> 00:34:40,646
-What is?
-We can't be here.

620
00:34:40,679 --> 00:34:42,813
-[Miranda] Kwan--
-[Halsey] No. Let her go.

621
00:34:43,882 --> 00:34:45,851
Miranda, tell me.

622
00:34:46,985 --> 00:34:48,320
Tell me you got it.

623
00:35:00,132 --> 00:35:01,667
[chuckles]

624
00:35:01,700 --> 00:35:03,369
[distant rumble]

625
00:35:05,471 --> 00:35:06,838
[snarling softly]

[rhythmic thudding]

635
00:37:12,498 --> 00:37:13,599
[Laera] Kessler!

636
00:37:14,466 --> 00:37:16,101
Kessler!

637
00:37:16,134 --> 00:37:18,304
[footsteps thudding rapidly]

638
00:37:21,106 --> 00:37:22,308

[grunts and screams]

641
00:37:49,501 --> 00:37:50,469
Hey.

642
00:37:50,502 --> 00:37:51,837
[metal bar clanking]

643
00:37:53,905 --> 00:37:55,407
[sighs] Kessler.

644
00:37:56,207 --> 00:37:57,676
It's me.

645
00:38:00,546 --> 00:38:01,580
Hey.

646
00:38:06,051 --> 00:38:07,486
[Laera] Soren!

647
00:38:07,519 --> 00:38:09,321
Mom!

[grunting]

650
00:38:19,898 --> 00:38:21,266
[Soren] Kessler!

651
00:38:31,743 --> 00:38:33,812
[indistinct chatter over P.A.]

652
00:38:43,689 --> 00:38:44,990
[John] Nice suit.

653
00:38:58,637 --> 00:39:00,205
How are you alive?

654
00:39:00,772 --> 00:39:02,941
I could ask the same thing
about you.

655
00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:13,819
You're coming with us.

656
00:39:17,989 --> 00:39:19,558
I have a different mission.

657
00:39:22,394 --> 00:39:25,296
You know what it would mean
to them to see you're alive.

658
00:39:25,330 --> 00:39:27,633
To know you're fighting
beside them.

659
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,869
You know what
it would mean to me.

660
00:39:34,339 --> 00:39:35,941
When the battle ends,

661
00:39:35,974 --> 00:39:38,444
they don't talk about the ones
who don't come home.

662
00:39:38,477 --> 00:39:41,580
They just call it a victory

663
00:39:42,881 --> 00:39:47,152
and say it was because of me.

664
00:39:47,185 --> 00:39:51,690
Because of something I did,
or something I had, or--

665
00:39:51,723 --> 00:39:53,058
Or something you are.

666
00:39:54,359 --> 00:39:55,927
Something you can't see.

667
00:39:57,395 --> 00:39:59,731
But you feel it.

668
00:39:59,765 --> 00:40:01,332
I know you feel it.

669
00:40:03,869 --> 00:40:05,704
Moving through you.

670
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,008
That woman made you
flip that coin

671
00:40:10,041 --> 00:40:12,277
all those times
when you were a kid.

672
00:40:15,714 --> 00:40:17,348
Was it luck?

673
00:40:17,382 --> 00:40:18,917
Did you guess?

674
00:40:20,686 --> 00:40:21,920
I told you, I...

675
00:40:23,021 --> 00:40:24,055
I just knew.

676
00:40:24,089 --> 00:40:26,858
Did you know?

677
00:40:26,892 --> 00:40:28,960
Or did you make it
come up heads?

678
00:40:42,874 --> 00:40:44,209
Perez.

679
00:40:50,916 --> 00:40:52,083
I'll be all right.

680
00:40:53,919 --> 00:40:55,120
One way or the other.

681
00:41:05,797 --> 00:41:08,133
[Miranda]
What do you suppose it does?

682
00:41:08,166 --> 00:41:11,002
Well, she was a scientist
and she died clutching it, so...

683
00:41:11,837 --> 00:41:13,138
It's her work.

684
00:41:18,577 --> 00:41:21,146
I spent the last five months
down in that site.

685
00:41:21,179 --> 00:41:23,749
Staying late, working alone,

686
00:41:23,782 --> 00:41:25,150
just me and your notes.

687
00:41:26,351 --> 00:41:29,688
In a way, it felt like I was
talking to who you used to be.

688
00:41:31,757 --> 00:41:33,424
I want to meet the people
who built that city

689
00:41:33,458 --> 00:41:35,594
just as much as you do.

690
00:41:37,863 --> 00:41:39,665
And don't worry.

691
00:41:39,698 --> 00:41:42,968
If you never get there, I will.

692
00:41:47,606 --> 00:41:49,340
I believe you.

693
00:41:54,479 --> 00:41:56,982
[P.A.] Security team
to Section 70.

694
00:41:57,015 --> 00:41:59,484

Halsey?

698
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:23,141
[Miranda] Mom?

699
00:42:24,142 --> 00:42:26,377
[breathing heavily]

700
00:42:27,713 --> 00:42:29,347
[Miranda laughs]

701
00:42:30,849 --> 00:42:32,818
[sighs] Now that's something.

702
00:42:37,422 --> 00:42:39,524
[indistinct P.A. announcement]

703
00:42:42,728 --> 00:42:48,734
[dramatic music playing]

704
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:57,575
[man] Let's go, Master Chief.

705
00:42:57,609 --> 00:43:01,479
[dramatic music rises,
then falls]

706
00:43:01,512 --> 00:43:03,749
You know, I've been doing this
a long time.

707
00:43:03,782 --> 00:43:05,450
I beg your pardon?

708
00:43:06,551 --> 00:43:07,585
Oh?

709
00:43:07,619 --> 00:43:09,087
Are we going to pretend

710
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,556
you didn't do an analysis
of the Spike code?

711
00:43:11,589 --> 00:43:14,025
And unauthorized simulations?

712
00:43:14,926 --> 00:43:16,662
You know,
I've always found it helps

713
00:43:16,695 --> 00:43:18,429
to know what my people
are thinking.

714
00:43:18,463 --> 00:43:21,767
Especially when I'm not there.

715
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:23,368
What about the Spartan-IIIs?

716
00:43:23,401 --> 00:43:25,336
-What about them?
-They trusted me.

717
00:43:25,370 --> 00:43:27,072
I told them they could win.

718
00:43:27,105 --> 00:43:30,108
You can't do this to them.

719
00:43:30,141 --> 00:43:32,010
You mean I can't do this to you.

720
00:43:32,043 --> 00:43:33,078
No.

721
00:43:33,879 --> 00:43:35,513
To them.

722
00:43:35,546 --> 00:43:37,582
[Jones] Flight Deck,
this is Launch Control.

723
00:43:37,615 --> 00:43:40,351
We're detecting a heat plume
on Condor UBX-19.

724

725
00:43:43,621 --> 00:43:45,523
You do not have an approved
flight plan.

726
00:43:45,556 --> 00:43:47,125
You're not cleared for launch.

[radio static crackles]

728
00:43:49,460 --> 00:43:51,429
