eight times! eight times!

Very accurate. You should be used to it by now.

But instead of paying a fair price

for our precious deuterium,

the UNSC leadership on Reach

try to enslave us.

Yes, let someone else act.

The professor has sticky hands.

you say i cheat

I'm saying you don't wash your hands.

My hands are dirty from the blood of the UNSC marines.

speech, professor

Please us with another of your war stories.

I have scars older than you.

- The things I have... - "...things I've seen."

They have repeatedly sent legions

of the Marines and their super weapons, the Spartans,

to crush us.

But war need not be the answer.

And that's why Jin Ha sent me

and trust me to broker an end to this endless war.

Turn that shit off

As the bard once wrote, "Wise..."

Vinsher is a fool, but he's a dangerous one

Fool who gives people false hopes.

His peace talks will fail and the Security Council of

United Nations will come at us with everything he's got.

you tag me

You mean Spartans?

Have you seen a Spartan up close?

I faced Marines.

"I turned myself in to Marines."

A Spartan is worth a hundred marines.

Ah, but, Djanka, there is another one

Difference between Spartans and Marines.

Mmm?

Marines can be killed.

Spartans are not human.

They are faster, stronger, smarter.

They can not be stopped.

They just keep killing...

without mercy...

until there is nothing left...

are you in or out

Jin Ha!

Tell our little one here.

The General knows.

Either Madrigal is free or it isn't.

There is no middle ground.

Oh, come on!

Oh, you're kidding. Incredible.

Are you all right, General?

Where is my daughter?

Probably traveling...

with your friends.

You know Kuwan.

Slower!

I didn't sign up for this!

I'm completely insane.

It's better worth it, Kwan.

Talk less, watch more, Cara.

If the general finds out we've left the outpost...

What my father doesn't know won't kill him.

I told you I would find it.

Madrigal, the highest concentration of heavy hydrogen in the galaxy.

Power your ships...

and power up your drugs.

That's why you gotta stay, kwan, to find shit like this!

Shame on you as

soon as I find a way

I'm getting off this stupid rock.

Where are you going anyway, Kwan?

The UNSC owns the galaxy.

She won't go.

She would miss us too much.

doubters first.

- Yes! - Yes.

See you on the other side.

Kwan, where are you going?

Off to plan their escape.

How long does it take for that to happen?

My brother says it's pretty quick.

People! Wait...!

Knew you'd come to play!

Hey, your face is radiant!

Where have you been?

We have to get back to the outpost.

- Why? What's happening? - There's a ship out there.

- UNSC? - I don't think so.

Neru, no, I'm serious! Come on Faas!

Esso!

I do not know. You should have been here by now.

No of course not.

We are warriors, aren't we?

- Yes. - Stay tuned. I'll be back, okay?

Take cover!

Let me in! Let me in!

Kwanya!

Walk! Walk! Walk!

How many are there?

- Kwan! - I do not know,

but they have a ship.

Holy Mother of God, it's all true.

What? what is true

I thought it was UNSC propaganda.

A ship!

UNSC!

Take cover!

Oh shit!

The Spartans.

Spartans!

Silver team, attack.

They help. The Spartans help!

I never thought I would live to see the day.

- You are now on our side. - So they are.

So let's fight!

Admiral Parangosky:

One hundred and fifty dead civilians in Madrigal

even if they were rebels.

The Alliance wiped out an entire rebel garrison

We saved one.

The safety committee is looking for one

Pretext to cut your funding.

John found something about madrigal.

Possibly Bund.

- We will add it to our collection. - No no no no.

This...

that is different.

It's like nothing I've ever seen.

We've been fighting these alien creatures for years and

we still have no idea what they want, where to find them,

or how to defeat them.

The Command on Earth wants answers.

If this object can tell us something about them,

I have a feeling that the concern of the

Committees on dead rebels will disappear.

Just one thing.

You want a friendly face speaking to the survivor.

Miranda Keyes knows madrigals.

I asked her to take care of the contact.

Will that be a problem?

No no no.

But the madrigal object comes right after

his arrival in my laboratory for the first analysis.

Alien Tech is Miranda's division.

John found it.

It belongs here.

I told you that was a non-starter.

We have paused active development.

You haven't stopped anything.

Catherine, your genius has

given us so much to be grateful for.

Properly and legally channel this genius.

Get rid of that and everyone else.

- Clear? - Clear.

I gave you a long clue, doctor.

Don't hang me on this.

hey

anyone! You're welcome!

You're welcome!

hey Hey you!

Hey! Open the door!

You're welcome!

- Open the door! -Kwan.

How do you feel?

Who are you?

I'm Miranda Keyes.

I'm speaking to you from UNSC headquarters on Reach.

I'm sorry for your loss, Kwan.

Despite their differences, the

UNSC respected the way Jin Ha

stood up for himself and the people in Madrigal.

Kwan, I'm not a politician.

I spend my time trying to understand

the aliens that attacked your outpost.

Your planet isn't the first planet to face the

Alliance, and unfortunately it won't be the last either.

If we don't all stick together...

I don't know how to stop them.

You could help us with that.

What does that mean?

If you would upload a few words to the other

colonies to simply explain what you saw,

the brutality of the alliance, the fact

that the Spartans actually take on them,

I think it would go a long way in putting

aside everything these politicians argue about

and help us focus on the real war.

My dad spent his life ridding us of you...

until the day of his assassination.

How can you ask me...

get in front of the camera and...?

- I understand. I'm not trying... - No, no, no.

It's a great idea.

yes let's do it

What if I say that the UNSC is a bunch

sent Spartans to attack us?

That is not true.

They killed over a hundred innocent people.

Children.

And then...

and then you kidnapped me to

make me say it was all the aliens.

Kwan, the entire encounter was recorded.

You can make videos look like anything else.

We've seen your spartan propaganda broadcasts.

You think the outer colonies won't see through this?

And when they hear my version,

you can forget unity or whatever.

Those other colonies will flee

the UNSC as fast as they can.

What do you want?

Independence for madrigal.

That's what my father wanted.

So this is what I want.

Yes.

Is there food on this ship?

I heard you played politician with the rebel girl today.

Dad, I tried.

I've sucked up my pride, and I...

I have given my best.

I believe you.

Ironically, Dr. Selling Halsey's Spartans to a rebel.

As if Halsey would ever do anything to promote me.

- That's not entirely fair. - Please do not. Don't defend them.

She has done nothing but put roadblocks in my way.

Halsey has always been purposeful.

Work is the only thing that matters.

I came to terms with that a long time ago.

It's nothing personal.

"Nothing personal" is not a good one

Sorry if it's about your mother.

Blood, eye fluid, gland extracts and bone

samples sent to an external laboratory...

You know, you're very similar to her.

Ouch.

I mean that as a compliment.

Anyway...

I suspect the United Nations Security Council

will not grant full independence to Madrigal.

Mnh-mnh.

What happens to the girl now?

That's what I came here to tell you.

Tell me something?

Kwan Ha was at the extraterrestrial

Attack on Madrigal severely wounded.

Despite her best efforts, she succumbed to her injuries.

II talked to her and she was fine.

What...? What injuries?

Dad.

You have not ordered an item 72.

Came from above.

I wanted you to hear it from me.

Well then, are you okay with that?

It's not about being okay.

No, it's about keeping the deuterium

flowing regardless of the cost.

- It is not so easy. - As simple as that.

It's an Article 72.

We murder a young girl...

and i am complicit.

We're at a war, Miranda.

The future of mankind...

What is the point of saving

humanity if we give up our own?

Sometimes you have to make difficult decisions to get good results.

Who sounds like Halsey now?

you don't eat

I didn't see anything I liked.

Yes?

What do you like?

Nuts. screws.

microchips.

- That was a joke. - Yes, no, I understand.

Hilarious.

Have you ever taken that thing off?

All my diagnostic command-

and control systems run through here.

I need it.

master chief, right?

You know we've actually met before.

When was it?

When you killed my mother.

She was at a meeting.

Outer colonists meet to discuss how the

United Nations Security Council is draining all of our natural resources.

But before they got involved, you

and three other Spartans showed up,

Responding to an insurgent bomb threat.

But see, that never made much sense because why should...?

Why should insurgents enter a

Blow up meetings for insurgents?

Yes.

We were ordered to eliminate the promoter.

And the orders changed.

What for?

Those gathered were considered an imminent threat.

My mother seemed like an imminent threat to you?

What I can see on site may not

reflect the entirety of the situation.

- What does that mean? - Sometimes...

others know things I don't know.

Has it ever occurred to you that it could also work the other way around?

Then you ask everything?

And someone told you that's bad?

Of course they did.

funny i...

I don't look at pictures of my mother that often, but...

She...

you are everywhere.

I can't turn around without staring at

an uplink about mankind's finest weapon.

What is your name?

Kwan Ha.

How much longer are we stuck here?

The ETA is still a few hours.

And then what?

We are still working on that.

So what's the problem?

Roll it back for her.

Yes Madam.

What does he do?

wait for it

Captain, does Master Chief know that girl is Article 72?

Naturally. He would have been told.

dr Halsey, what's wrong with 1-1-7?

Nothing, it's just a neurochemical error caused by a

electrocuted his prefrontal cortex.

It's not nothing.

Instead of executing the rebels as ordered, he

decided to delete the video feed from his ship.

What's happening?

I think he has memories.

What?

Of?

His parents.

I thought you sealed those memories.

He's not even sure if it's his memories.

At the moment it's just visions.

Then why violate the procedure?

I do not know.

Not knowing why a walking

Killing machine does what it

does is a risk that cannot be taken.

I totally agree with that,

why the Cortana system is...

There's no Cortana system, Catherine.

No cloning, no Cortana. Is that clear?

Get your Spartan under control now.

What's happening?

Something is...

not correct.

I can not breathe.

What are you doing right now?

The ship's oxygen levels are falling.

I need to...

kwan

Take off the oxygen in the suit of 1-1-7.

Don't let the O2 drop below 40. I want him to pass out.

- Not dead. - Yes, ma'am.

Can the girl survive this?

I thought you wanted her dead.

- It's over there. - Here.

She stops at 40%. He is unconscious.

I'm getting a report about accessing Panel Alpha 1-6.

If he's unconscious, why is he opening panels in the ship?

- What does A-1-6 say? - Atmosphere control.

The oxygen level returns to normal.

What kind of weapons does the ship carry?

John won't shoot us.

I think it's safe to say you're about this

not knowing what the Master Chief will do at this point.

Ship flies on AI. We are in control.

I will send an escort of pelicans.

I need more than one escort, Captain.

turn off the alarm

Get everyone to the landing

bay, full squadron protocol.

With all due respect, we're talking

about our most important military asset.

We don't take any risks.

let me investigate I'll speak to

John, and whatever affects this object...

Question one more order, doctor,

and you can watch from your lab.

Come on! Let's go! Relocation!

- Get undressed! - Let's go! Let's go!

Get your ass out! Walk!

run run run!

Clear.

silver team,

The Master Chief has been compromised

from the object you found on Madrigal.

Because of this, he is no longer able to follow orders.

They were sent by Fleet Command

to neutralize him.

- I replace these orders. - Relocation!

Whatever he is experiencing,

there are other solutions available.

When this ship lands

I want you to protect and protect the Master

Chief from anyone who actively threatens his life,

whatever the circumstances.

Will you commit to friendlies, ma'am?

If they're chasing Chief, they're not friendlies.

right, dr Halsey?

Correct.

kwan

Dont move.

you have to listen to me

what have you done to me

Stop messing around with that stuff.

UNSC changed the air mix, not me.

why should i trust you

I'm trying to get the flight under control.

I will kill you.

This is Mark Six Mjolnir armor.

The outer layer is made of reinforced titanium.

You won't even dent it.

If you want me dead...

You have to aim up here.

what just happened

I think he just took off his helmet.

- What are you doing? - I try to help you.

When that ship lands, they

will remove and execute you.

Did they tell you?

And you just decided to help me?

Why would a Spartan do that?

I do not know.

Get me a thermal imaging camera on the Condor.

Right away.

So what now?

We have to work fast.

The girl has a gun signature.

Did your Spartan just give a gun to an insurgent?

Green deck, two minutes to touchdown.

Two minutes!

Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!

Open the second ECAM window.

Disconnect the failsafe AI autopilot.

- Autopilot what? - ECAM panel two!

This is how we get control of the ship.

- Tear out the cable to the FMS! - Which cables?

I have to disconnect the stabilizer servos at the

same time, otherwise we'll lose complete control.

I can not! You are stuck!

Got to work faster, Kwan!

I'm trying!

Walk! Walk! Walk!

Shit!

...now in manual mode.

You are now in manual mode.

He's AI disabled.

Fly manually, ma'am.

What are we waiting for? I thought you were in control.

I do. Wait.

Captain...

This is keys. Pulse the ship

before he can load fire controls.

knock it down!

Let's go! Relocation!

Relocation! Flank to starboard!

Stop! cover me!

Ready!

Bravo Two, at the door!

Hold your line!

In your ranks!

Hold your section!

What do we do?

Prepare for a breakthrough!

What do we do?

- All engines dead. - No answer.

drop the girl

And if he moves, drop him too.

Shit.

Master Chief, please tell me you have a plan.

master boss!

- Want to see? - Naturally.

what just happened

AI has deployed.

what did you just do

Switching to auxiliary power.

What was that?

Buckle up.
