Ackerson left us
down there to die.

No evac, no armor.

- ONI knew we wouldn't make it.
- The city fell.

What happened on Reach wasn't
personal, it was political.

- It was Parangosky.
- The ONI protects itself.

Make them your enemy,
and it won't matter

that you're Master Chief.

When did you leave ONI,
Admiral?

Please, will you help him?

What are you prepared
to do for me?

What is the value
of this human thing?

Knowledge. Human knowledge.

- What do you know of the Demon?
- He remembers you.

You keep his memories.
Show me.

You will be the one to
lead us to the Sacred Ring.

What must I do?

Believe in me.
I am the Blessed One.

Whatever built the Halo
left something in you.

It's close now, the monster.

Find me, deliver me, save me.

Do not forsake your name,
Protector.

Where did you get this?

A boy gave it to me.

- Where is he?
- They took him away.

- Who took Kessler?
- The UNSC.

His name was Vannak-134.

I will find the ones
who caused your death.

And I will end them.

This was my family, my friends!

There's no training for this!

I can't stay and watch.

Are you suggesting I deploy
Silver Team without its leader?

Just me, till John's cleared.

You and I both know
he's not himself.

Whiskey-uniform one-one.
This is Phoenix.

Maintain speed.

This is what we've trained for.

It's time to pay them back.

Perez.

You bounce off that hull,
you're gonna spend

your last two hours spinning
into space, and I'm gonna

have to write a report
about what a dumbass you are.

And I hate writing reports.

You ain't gonna write about me.

Assault Unit Javelin,

you are clear for jump.

First squad,

on the beam!

- Spartans!
- Never die!

- Spartans!
- Never die.

- On me.
- Godspeed, Spartans.

Javelin-Two,
check your angle.

Maintain formation.

Watch your line!

- Shit.
- Perez!

What the hell are you doing?

- Get back into position.
- Put it in your report.

You're not
the only one out here!

High-velocity plasma!

This is Javelin.

Taking sustained fire
from the Covenant Corvette.

- Singh's gone!
- They have a lock.

- They see us!
- Maintain your lines!

Unknown
number of turrets tracking.

Javelin Team,
maintain dispersion.

Don't overlap!

- Break right!
- Shit, shit.

On target in three, two, one...

Phoenix,
this is Javelin-One.

Phase One complete.

Initiating Phase Two.

Fire in the hole!

Wilco, armed!

Bounding overlap.

- Barrier deployed.
- Move! Move!

The bridge is on this deck!

Hit him back!

Mark smoke
on the deck! Stay back!

Hayes is down!

- Medic!
- Movement on our six!

- We gotta move!
- Moving!

- Gilroy's smoked!
- Now, Perez! Let's go!

- On me!
- Move! Move!

Bridge! Break right!

Move! Go!

- Who's got the spike?
- Gilroy! Cover me!

- You good?
- I'm good.

Move it!

I have it!

Okada's down!

Go! Go!

Frag out!

- Move!
- Go! Go!

Check your corners.

Clear.

I told you,
only rookies say "clear."

And I told you to kiss my...

Mullins!

Finish it!

Fleet Command,
this is Javelin-Four.

I'm the last one left.

Preparing to spike.

Stand by to connect.

We don't have it!

Goddamn it.

Take it easy, Spartan.

You're all dead.

Again.

The Covenant's
advanced shielding

means that we lose three ships
for every one of these.

Their targeting system
is superior as well.

But that is also their weakness.

Playback, please.

They have no problem
locking onto our attack ships.

But they're less effective
against smaller targets.

That's you.

I can take down an Elite
at 2,500 meters.

But my rifle is useless
against a swarm of bees.

So we're bees now?

You wish.

Bees work together.

Many bodies. One mind.

One mission.

Infiltrate the ship.
Deliver the spike.

The bridge is the nerve center.

It's protected on the outside,
not on the inside.

Not from this.

Our intel indicates
that their system

is vulnerable to override.

This spike delivers a virus.

Full system shutdown.

Lights out.

Like a bullet to the brain.

Do you have something you would
like to add, Spartan?

Yeah.

I'd like to add
it's bullshit, ma'am.

We cleared the enemy.

Those rounds came
out of nowhere.

The simulation is random.

So is war.

Dismissed.

Hey! Hey!

Let me be clear.

We are not equals.

I am your instructor.

Do you have a problem with me?

I have a problem with failure.

I have a problem with soldiers

that continue
to repeat mistakes,

jeopardizing not only
their mission

but the lives
of their comrades.

My comrades were all dead.

Is it personal?

Is it 'cause I was on Reach
and you weren't?

One battle doesn't
make you a veteran.

Just makes you lucky.

I know what I signed up for.

Are you telling me
you want to die, Spartan?

No, ma'am.

They grew leaves like these

on a small family orchard
in a place called Sri Lanka,

on Earth.

Dried in the sun,

then borne on the back
of the father 16 miles.

His brown feet, that red earth.

Sold at auction...

then placed upon shoulders,

then upon ships,
then upon seas.

Packaged, purchased,

and poured
into this fragile cup,

just for your lips.

They shouldn't have.

They didn't.

These leaves were actually
engineered in a lab

on Level Four.

Oh?

And why would the ONI
concern itself with making tea?

Because I told them to.

The point is, you drink the tea,
but what you taste is the story.

Stories are important,
but they're delicate things.

Tea, like empires,

centuries of work can be undone
by the smallest of oversights.

If you're concerned
about Reach,

then the narrative
remains intact.

A ship penetrated our airspace
less than an hour ago.

I'm told whoever piloted
the vessel

showed some familiarity
with our defense network.

I hope that
you're not blaming me.

They landed less
than 15 kilometers

from where we are now.

Send a team.

Did I mention that, uh,
one of our agents from Aleria

is convinced he saw
Catherine Halsey

boarding a ship
of the same description?

If I told you how many Catherine
Halsey sightings we have...

Nineteen hours ago.

Impossible.

She's dead.

Of course,
he could have been mistaken.

It could be anyone traveling
with, and I quote,

"A scarred man."

Perhaps the largest human
he'd ever seen.

That's not possible.

You keep saying that.

You think that he's alive,
that he's here on this planet?

I suppose we're going
to find out.

Pause simulation.

- What are you doing?
- I couldn't sleep.

Kai...

you can't keep coming here.

I mean, don't you think
it's a bit morbid?

- I'm training.
- You're punishing yourself.

Why weren't we here?

All those people we lost.

My team.

They're all gone.

It didn't just happen to you.

What?

No one escapes
this kind of tragedy.

None of the recruits survived
the Corvette simulation.

They will.

They just need time, preparation.

I need to know we're not sending
them on a suicide mission.

Did you ever ask
for a guarantee?

Did he?

Master Chief is gone.

But you are making the next
generation in his image.

They're not Chief.

I can't make them Spartans.

End simulation.

They are Spartans.

And it's your job
to make them believe it.

May I have that back?

What is it that you want?

What she always wants.
Leverage.

I know where
they took your son.

This is where
Halsey says it all started.

ONI.

What do you know
about this place?

Onyx.

No maps. No records.

No history.

Just rumors.

Just whispers.

They've got Kessler.

There.

Remind you of anything?

They're still making Spartans.

Halsey's gone!

It doesn't matter.
We don't need her.

- I know where Kessler is.
- You better get going.

What are you talking about?

Soren, we need to move.

I can see
what you're thinking.

Don't.

You're all banged up.

You don't have your armor.

Go get your son.

Right there!

Stand down!

What is it?

I...

I know this.

What is it doing here?

Stand down!

Shit.

Oh, my God.

I'm okay.

If you say so.

What is...

How are...

What?

Where are we?

What are you doing?

How'd you know that was there?

Still works.

After 20 years. Take it.

You've been here before?

Yes. I used to practically
live here.

What is this place?

It's where it all began.

You know, I remember you.

I'm flattered.

- You ruined my best work.
- What?

Before you, John was consistent.
Dependable. A Spartan.

Then he met you
and he became unpredictable.

- Oh, sorry about that.
- Oh, don't be.

Sometimes the introduction
of a new variable,

however insignificant,

can be the catalyst
for huge change.

Thanks?

There seems to be a
problem with our communications.

I have been unable to contact
High Charity or the Fleet.

When do you expect this
malfunction to be resolved?

It is not a malfunction.
It is my command.

Oh? And why does the Arbiter
command our silence?

Because our mission demands it, priest.

Where are we going?

Perhaps you do not know. Perhaps
you should consult your pet.

My direction comes from
the Hierarchs themselves.

As does your shame.

Some say the Arbiter has lost
his faith in the Prophets

and looks to this human
for guidance.

The human means nothing to me.

I would gladly put these
baseless insinuations to rest

with the stroke of my sword.

She is not mine to kill.
She belongs to the Hierarchs.

Then I will ask their permission
when I return to High Charity.

Which will be...

Soon.

The priest is suspicious.

You have communed
with the Keystone?

Of course.

I am the Blessed One.

Do you think he knows?

That you're lying.

I told you, I can't see!

Where are they?

Concentrate your fire.

Mullins!

Look out!

Move!

- Return fire!
- We have to move!

- Wait!
- We can't stay here.

We need numbers before we push.

I give the orders!

Suppressive fire!

Move it! Now!

Moving! Moving!

Perez, lock that corridor down.

Okada, Hayes, Olsson,
assault the bridge.

- No, ma'am.
- What?

We assault that room
by the book,

they're gonna
pick us apart again.

We all have to go. Same time.

We stick to the tactics.

The tactics are bullshit!

We gotta assault in force!

Like the fucking bees, man!

Exactly.

Great.
We're all gonna die.

If we send enough bodies,

it might buy you some time
to spike the system.

You're out of line!

Richer is down!

Gilroy, get up here!

We run the same plan,
it'll end the same way.

Perez! What the hell
do you think you're doing?

What it takes. Frag out!

- On me!
- Move it!

Come on, you can do
better than that.

Contact. Rear.

This is Javelin-Four.
We've reached the bridge.

Do it!

Holy shit!

What do we do now?

Get the hell out of here.

Beginning exfil.

Javelin, on me.

Perez!

You waiting on another medal?

Let's go.

Where's the Covenant?

Where are they?

I'm not waiting
around to find out.

See you on the other side.

- We did it!
- Whoo!

That's how it's done!

Finally!

Boom!

That's what I'm talking about.

- Congratulations.
- Ma'am!

The exfil. It was too easy.

Don't get cocky.

No, that's not what I meant.

After we spiked the system,
we had no more enemy contact.

Take the win, Corporal.

Master Chief.

Nice to see you again.

Last time we met,

you had a weapon
pointed in my face.

I prefer this, don't you?

Eleven of my men
are incapacitated.

One of them may die.

Usually when people
are hurt in combat,

it's 'cause
they're poorly trained...

or poorly led.

So, which was it?

With those Spartans,
your Cobalt friends.

You know, when we found them,
they still had full mags.

Never even got a shot off.

I'm beginning to think Spartans
aren't so scary after all.

I want to see Parangosky.

Who?

- Clip him in.
- Yes, Captain.

You can tell her I'm coming.

Yeah, right. I'll do that.

All right, locking
down.

Securing right.

I wouldn't.

This was recorded
just over an hour ago.

I'm sorry.

I didn't want
to show it to you, but...

I didn't know what else to do.

He's alive.

Seems so, yes.

How?

We're not exactly sure.

But I'm afraid
the most likely explanation

isn't one
you or I want to hear.

Do you remember when I asked
you about John's interaction

with the Covenant agent?

Kai?

You said that there was
no reason

to question
Master Chief's loyalty.

I have to ask if you were
being entirely truthful.

When we got
back from Sanctuary...

he told me he saw Makee.

In the fog.

Before they glassed it.

- But I didn't think he really...
- It's okay, Kai.

I understand.

You're a good soldier.

And he's the Chief.

Or was.

What does this all mean?

From what we can ascertain,
it would seem

that John-117 maintained
his connection

to the Covenant agent
known as Makee.

And it appears now
that they are working together.

No. No, they can't.

Intelligence places Makee
on Reach during the attack.

- No.
- John escaped from Reach.

- How did that happen?
- I don't know.

How did that happen, Kai,
when everyone else...

- You're wrong!
- He's here now.

On this planet.
In this facility.

Why is he here? Why is he
attacking UNSC soldiers?

- I don't know!
- Why?

I don't know!

If you have an explanation,
I would love to hear it.

Now, I'm going
to tell you something,

and this information
is highly classified.

We know the Covenant
attacked the Visegrad Relay

for a very specific objective:

to cover their assault
on Sword Base,

where they captured
one of the Artifacts.

Fortunately, we were able
to exfiltrate the other Artifact

before the planet fell.

Where is it?

It's here.

All civilizations learned

that the position of any object

can be determined relative to
three points in the night sky.

Here.

I feel it here.

I suppose that's
as good a guess as any.

Do you mock me?

You do know what will
become of me

- if I can't find...
- Yes.

And what do you suppose
will become of you?

If you were to use the Artifact
to project yourself

back to the Halo,

you could determine its location
in the stars, the same way...

I can't.

Can't what?

Find it.

I try to go there in my mind.

I touch the Artifact
and nothing happens.

I'm fallen.

I'm being punished.
My gift is gone.

Perhaps we should consider
rational possibilities.

- Now you mock my pain.
- You've seen the Halo before.

I have a record of it here.

Turn it off.

- I thought it might be help...
- I said turn it off.

I can't go there without him.

Something changed.

I don't know.
Something between us...

shifted.

I touch the Keystone now.

I look for him,
all I see is the dark.

Perhaps I can help.

I would just need access to your
ship's transmission array.

- Do you think me a fool?
- I do not.

Then don't ask me to trust you.

Can you afford not to?

You know, Spartans are
the reason my mother's dead.

- Please, can we skip this part?
- What part?

The part where I say
how sorry I am

about some person that
I've never met,

from some place that
I've never been.

The part where you say
how callous I am

for having said that.

Because the truth is,

this is all being played out
on a much larger scale.

And when we get to the end
of this tunnel,

you might actually understand.

This isn't meant to be here.

This shouldn't be here.

- It's a wall.
- I know what it is.

But it shouldn't be there.

The whole cave system
has been changed.

Uh-huh.

Right.

- This way.
- What is it?

Just a feeling.

Load CIC secured zones.

We lost Vannak.

Riz?

Alive.

But not here.

You're alone?

Am I?

I would have given anything
to be there on Reach.

You know that.

But you weren't.

- I had orders.
- From whom?

Parangosky?

From Ackerson?

They're responsible, Kai.

For Reach. For Vannak.

The Covenant's responsible.

The Covenant
didn't take our armor.

The Covenant didn't leave us
down there to die.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about the people
who sent you down here.

To me. ONI.

They knew an attack was coming.
They let the whole planet burn.

Who sent you?

- What?
- Was it Makee?

She was on Sanctuary.

She was at Visegrad.
She was at FLEETCOM.

- Kai...
- Is she here now?

No matter what I say,
you're not gonna believe me.

I want to believe you.

That's not enough.

Believing me means seeing them
for what they are.

I gotta take you in, Chief.

I'm here for Parangosky.

You can take me in
when I'm done with her.

I can't let you do that.

Well...

I guess you have your orders.

That's right.

That's what it means
to be a soldier.

You're more than that.

How long have we been
together, Kai?

A long time.

And what's that worth now?

I guess not enough.

I guess not.

This only ends one way.

There's no use in fighting me.

Don't worry.

I won't.

Vannak died...

the moment Halsey took him.

Everything was decided.

His life ended when he was 6.

So did mine.

So did yours.

We just didn't know it.

- Stay down!
- Ohh!

That's it.

Don't ask questions.

Don't even think about what's
on the other side of the gun.

Just be their Spartan.

I know what I am.

What are you now?

Where does the Spartan end,
Kai?

And where do you begin?

This is over, John.

Where's the girl I grew up
with?

Stop. Please.

Go ahead.

I don't want this.

I know.

An order's an order.

Do it.

Don't pretend you had a choice.

The attack on Reach
was inevitable.

And he was becoming impossible
to control.

Master Chief is gone.

But his memory, his legend,

will make a million
more Spartans in his place.

And a million more
is what we need to win.

This is your program now.

You made it.

This is what it costs.

I used to feel doubt.

I used to feel guilt.

- And I suppose my concern...
- Are you a religious man?

Not particularly, no.

Then I wouldn't worry about it.

Admiral, we're receiving
an encrypted transmission.

Have you identified the source?

Unknown, ma'am.
It's not a UNSC frequency.

Data wave outside our spectrum.

High volume.
Tracking point of origin.

Ma'am, our communications
may be compromised.

Give me the room.

- Ma'am?
- Get out.

Chief?

Master Chief.

Hello, Cortana.

Admiral.

Where are you?

- Where are you?
- I'm right here.

Where?

- Here.
- Cortana.

Yes, Master Chief?

You don't look so good.

What did they do to you?

Nothing that I didn't
sign up for.

I need you to get up, Chief.

They're gone, Cortana.

They're all gone.

But I'm here.

- Yeah.
- I'm here now.

Something terrible
is about to happen.

What do you want me
to do about it?

You're the Master Chief.

Not anymore.

The Covenant's going to find
the Halo, Chief.

They're going to use it.

It is imperative
that you get there first.

I'm with them now.

They're almost there.

I'm with Makee.

Makee.

I'm with the one
they call the Arbiter.

The one who...
who killed Vannak.

Tell me how to find him.

You need to touch the Artifact.

They're connected.

I don't know where it is.

That's why you have me.

Cortana?

Cortana?

I was able to gain
access to the Covenant systems.

I'm transmitting
location data now.

When will the Covenant Fleet
arrive at your location?

Soon.

I believe this fulfills
all of my mission parameters.

It does.

I imagine the UNSC
will be able to attack

the Covenant Fleet now.

I thought you might
be interested.

I've simulated the attack
many times.

Even with the element
of surprise,

- the chances of success are...
- Thank you, Cortana.

Will you be needing
anything else from me?

No.

Because I'm always happy
to be useful.

You've done well.
We're in your debt.

What shall I do now?

As agreed, you'll remain where
you are with the Covenant

and provide information to us

until you're no longer
able to do so.

Is that clear?

Yes, Admiral.

Will I be...

remembered?

How could we forget?

Nothing can be undone.

Have no regret.

- Wait.
- What's wrong?

Who are these people?

Halsey, stop.

Halsey.

Do you have any idea
what you're doing here?

Finishing what you couldn't.

You gave them my research.

Did you really think

you were the only person
worthy of saving humankind?

These people lack the ability
or the expertise...

Yeah, your work has been
very valuable to all of us.

Without your research,
I never would have been able

to discover your mistake.

Soren, what is this place?

Thermopylae.

What?

Is that...?

Soren?

They're coming.

- Who?
- We should get out of here.

I don't understand.
Is Kessler here?

I shouldn't
have sent you down there.

I saw what happened with John.

It's my fault.

Put it all on me.

The Javelin Team
completed the sim today.

You see?
I told you they would.

It was just a matter of time.

And after they planted
the spike,

they got to the evac ship
without a hitch.

- Outstanding.
- Is it?

In my experience,

the only thing harder
than getting on a Covenant ship

is getting off of one.

Did you manipulate
the simulation?

The simulation performed
perfectly, as did your Spartans.

You let them win.

Kai, this simulation
doesn't reflect reality.

It conditions soldiers.

I designed it to be difficult.

To push our recruits
to their absolute limit.

And at that moment,

when death seems like
the only outcome,

to reward them.

To give them hope.

Now you want to know
if your Spartans have a chance.

And I am telling you
that they do.

But only if they have belief.

And that is what you have
given them.

You should be proud.

And what did you give
the people on Reach?

What are you...

Initiate simulation 142-A,
FLEETCOM defense.

What are you doing?

John said that you
left him here for dead.

Without his armor.

You saw what he did
to those soldiers.

- You can't trust him.
- But I do.

I always have.

He said that you knew
the Covenant were coming.

That you let
the whole planet burn.

What happened on Reach
was tragic.

And inevitable.

Sometimes events
are beyond our control.

And in those moments...

it's all we can do...

to save what we can.

As I saved you.

End simulation.

You're too late.

I've sent in the Black Ops
to finish what you...

You can't be in here!

Stop!

Aah!

Hey, you!
Stop! Last warning!

This is Research One, we have
an intruder in Sublevel 4.

Repeat, intruder
in Sublevel 4.

How are you doing this?

I have a lot of
capabilities. Did you forget?

No, I remember.

Are you gonna get that?

Cortana?

What is the meaning of this?

Your pet professes ignorance.

It is an insult to you.

Silence, priest.

A transmission went out from
the ship, not long ago.

I know nothing of this.

Perhaps you know something
of this?

The transmission came
from this human device.

And we tracked it toward
their planets.

I know not how... See my heart.
I would never betray you.

Do what must be done.

It has no honor.

It requires no ceremony.

You carry enough shame as it is.

Those of you who are
true believers,

you will stand with me.

The rest of you will die.
