1
00:00:01,653 --> 00:00:03,264
Strap in.

2
00:00:15,102 --> 00:00:17,234
<i>Put your weapons down.</i>

3
00:00:17,278 --> 00:00:20,672
If John here wanted you dead,
you'd be dead.

4
00:00:20,716 --> 00:00:22,587
Hello, Soren.
This is Kwan Ha.

5
00:00:22,631 --> 00:00:23,936
Nice of you to drop by.

6
00:00:23,980 --> 00:00:25,808
I've developed a new system

7
00:00:25,851 --> 00:00:27,940
which will overwrite
Spartan consciousness

8
00:00:27,984 --> 00:00:31,770
and replace it with our
artificial general intelligence.

9
00:00:31,814 --> 00:00:33,120
It's called Cortana.

10
00:00:33,163 --> 00:00:34,469
Didn't that process depend

11
00:00:34,512 --> 00:00:36,036
<i>on the illegal practice</i>

12
00:00:36,079 --> 00:00:37,472
<i>of flash-cloning humans?</i>

13
00:00:39,300 --> 00:00:41,519
- What does it do?
- I'm not sure.

14
00:00:41,563 --> 00:00:43,869
Slipspace vector tracking
on the Condor just came in.

15
00:00:43,913 --> 00:00:46,350
We won't have his exact
location, but we'll be close.

16
00:00:46,394 --> 00:00:48,178
<i>What they did to us,</i>

17
00:00:48,222 --> 00:00:50,876
it's only permanent
if we choose to let it be.

18
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,487
That pellet you got
on your back,

19
00:00:52,530 --> 00:00:54,010
it mutes everything.

20
00:00:54,054 --> 00:00:55,446
Lose the pellet

21
00:00:55,490 --> 00:00:58,449
and it's like
opening your eyes.

22
00:01:01,017 --> 00:01:03,976
You bring it to life.

23
00:01:04,020 --> 00:01:05,282
What do you mean?

24
00:01:05,326 --> 00:01:06,544
You are different

25
00:01:06,588 --> 00:01:07,806
than the one they have.

26
00:01:07,850 --> 00:01:09,069
The one they have?

27
00:01:13,464 --> 00:01:14,944
The ring is what they want!

28
00:01:14,987 --> 00:01:16,902
- What is that ring?
- The end...

29
00:01:16,946 --> 00:01:19,557
of life as we know it.

30
00:01:19,601 --> 00:01:20,993
I have to go back.

31
00:01:21,037 --> 00:01:22,865
You running back to Halsey.

32
00:01:22,908 --> 00:01:24,301
- You can't just leave me here.
- Promise me.

33
00:01:24,345 --> 00:01:26,956
- Keep her safe.
- I give you my word.

34
00:01:28,871 --> 00:01:31,482
- Why did you come back?
- There was no one I could trust.

35
00:01:31,526 --> 00:01:33,484
You made the right choice.

36
00:01:33,528 --> 00:01:37,053
<i>We're gonna do</i>
<i>great things together.</i>

37
00:02:04,211 --> 00:02:05,690
<i>Metals and plastics</i>

38
00:02:05,734 --> 00:02:07,518
<i>are to be kept separate.</i>

39
00:02:07,562 --> 00:02:09,390
<i>Contaminated bags</i>
<i>will be rejected</i>

40
00:02:09,433 --> 00:02:11,000
<i>and extra shifts imposed.</i>

41
00:02:11,043 --> 00:02:12,393
Come on,
let's go faster.

42
00:02:12,436 --> 00:02:14,438
Let's go,
you little bastards!

43
00:02:14,482 --> 00:02:15,657
Move!

44
00:02:15,700 --> 00:02:17,311
Come on, let's go faster.

45
00:02:17,354 --> 00:02:18,747
Hurry up!

46
00:02:18,790 --> 00:02:19,922
<i>"They ran among the broad</i>

47
00:02:19,965 --> 00:02:22,794
<i>"Ma-Margolia trees,</i>

48
00:02:22,838 --> 00:02:25,319
<i>"and when she turned to him,</i>
<i>he took her up.</i>

49
00:02:25,362 --> 00:02:28,235
<i>"This was a new frontier</i>
<i>for Jack,</i>

50
00:02:28,278 --> 00:02:32,761
"one not made of the great

51
00:02:32,804 --> 00:02:35,807
"but something more vast,

52
00:02:37,809 --> 00:02:40,290
the heart of an untamed woman."

53
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,163
What's "untamed" mean?

54
00:02:43,206 --> 00:02:46,731
I think it's like
she's really pretty.

55
00:02:46,775 --> 00:02:47,732
You!

56
00:02:47,776 --> 00:02:49,343
Shh!

57
00:02:49,386 --> 00:02:51,519
<i>The next shift day </i>
<i>has been extended...</i>

58
00:02:53,260 --> 00:02:55,349
Do you like it?

59
00:02:55,392 --> 00:02:56,524
I love it.

60
00:02:58,265 --> 00:03:00,919
It's a story about a whole
different world.

61
00:03:00,963 --> 00:03:02,921
What do you mean?

62
00:03:02,965 --> 00:03:07,230
There are other planets
with bright light in the sky,

63
00:03:07,274 --> 00:03:08,623
and tall trees,

64
00:03:08,666 --> 00:03:11,278
and green grass
you can walk on.

65
00:03:11,321 --> 00:03:12,627
I don't know.

66
00:03:12,670 --> 00:03:14,759
- Really?
- It's in the book.

67
00:03:17,197 --> 00:03:19,590
Look here. Do you know
what that word says?

68
00:03:19,634 --> 00:03:21,026
"Kiss."

69
00:03:21,070 --> 00:03:23,812
So, when you read
a word like that,

70
00:03:23,855 --> 00:03:26,467
someone's supposed to kiss you.

71
00:03:37,913 --> 00:03:39,697
Hey!

72
00:03:39,741 --> 00:03:41,046
Get back to work!

73
00:03:41,090 --> 00:03:42,309
- Run!
- Let's go!

74
00:03:42,352 --> 00:03:44,136
Hey!

75
00:03:44,180 --> 00:03:45,399
Get over here!

76
00:03:47,096 --> 00:03:48,793
Come back here,
you little shit!

77
00:03:52,449 --> 00:03:54,146
Makee, come on!

78
00:03:54,190 --> 00:03:55,365
Come on!

79
00:03:59,674 --> 00:04:01,806
- Useless little shit!
- Stop it!

80
00:04:01,850 --> 00:04:03,852
- Stop it!
- Forget it!

81
00:04:03,895 --> 00:04:05,506
- Det!
- Let's go!

82
00:04:05,549 --> 00:04:06,855
No.

83
00:04:20,260 --> 00:04:21,609
Grab her!

84
00:04:25,177 --> 00:04:26,396
I've gotcha!

85
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:27,484
Here come the Grunts!

86
00:04:27,528 --> 00:04:29,007
I'll teach you a lesson.

87
00:05:43,038 --> 00:05:44,605
Mm.

88
00:08:10,794 --> 00:08:12,274
This is amazing.

89
00:08:15,277 --> 00:08:18,410
Finally, something
with potential value.

90
00:08:18,454 --> 00:08:21,936
Results confirm it's over
100,000 years old.

91
00:08:21,979 --> 00:08:23,720
That's pre-human.

92
00:08:23,764 --> 00:08:26,201
Possibly even pre-Covenant.

93
00:08:27,332 --> 00:08:29,030
It's organic,

94
00:08:29,073 --> 00:08:31,772
but with what appears to be
an inherent technology.

95
00:08:31,815 --> 00:08:33,469
According to Master Chief,

96
00:08:33,513 --> 00:08:36,254
it is something to do
with a weapon somewhere.

97
00:08:36,298 --> 00:08:37,821
We have no confirmation,
but Doctor--

98
00:08:37,865 --> 00:08:39,736
And why am I only
hearing about this now?

99
00:08:39,780 --> 00:08:41,172
- You know exactly why.
- I don't understand--

100
00:08:41,216 --> 00:08:42,826
And if it was up to her,

101
00:08:42,870 --> 00:08:44,698
you still wouldn't know
anything about it.

102
00:08:44,741 --> 00:08:47,048
Then why show it to me
in the first place?

103
00:08:48,397 --> 00:08:50,007
I want you to lead a team

104
00:08:50,051 --> 00:08:52,357
in analyzing this artifact.

105
00:08:52,401 --> 00:08:54,664
Determine what it is,
what it does,

106
00:08:54,708 --> 00:08:58,276
and if, in fact, it's part
of some kind of weapon.

107
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,671
Or anything that can give us
an edge against the Covenant.

108
00:09:03,368 --> 00:09:04,500
Separate teams.

109
00:09:06,633 --> 00:09:07,808
Parallel teams.

110
00:09:09,984 --> 00:09:11,681
Dr. Halsey won't like that.

111
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,206
I'm interested
in finding a way

112
00:09:15,250 --> 00:09:18,688
to be less reliant on Dr. Halsey
moving forward.

113
00:09:18,732 --> 00:09:20,821
Can you help me
with that?

114
00:09:33,311 --> 00:09:34,748
- Thank you, Adun.
- Mm-hmm.

115
00:09:47,412 --> 00:09:48,805
How are you feeling?

116
00:09:53,201 --> 00:09:56,421
I'm assuming you cloned me
to obtain organs,

117
00:09:56,465 --> 00:09:57,988
or at least
that was the intent

118
00:09:58,032 --> 00:10:00,687
when I collected samples
of my various tissues.

119
00:10:00,730 --> 00:10:02,906
I collected the samples.

120
00:10:02,950 --> 00:10:05,996
You are merely a product
of the samples.

121
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,824
Yes, a product.

122
00:10:07,868 --> 00:10:09,870
Well, it turns out
not to feel that way

123
00:10:09,913 --> 00:10:11,219
when you're sitting
in this chair.

124
00:10:12,873 --> 00:10:14,701
I have some questions.

125
00:10:19,314 --> 00:10:20,576
Go ahead.

126
00:10:22,099 --> 00:10:23,623
What became
of the children?

127
00:10:25,712 --> 00:10:29,237
Uh, well, 35 survived
the original augmentation.

128
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,195
So, more than half died.

129
00:10:31,239 --> 00:10:33,633
That's a far greater percentage
than I imagined.

130
00:10:33,676 --> 00:10:35,460
The rest became Spartans.

131
00:10:35,504 --> 00:10:37,941
And now here I am,
conscious and conversing

132
00:10:37,985 --> 00:10:40,988
with the Sorvad solids
laid out before me.

133
00:10:41,031 --> 00:10:45,035
So, the organ you're after
is my brain.

134
00:10:45,079 --> 00:10:48,299
Or should I say,
your brain?

135
00:10:49,910 --> 00:10:51,781
I've perfected the process

136
00:10:51,825 --> 00:10:54,523
for real-time
neuroelectrical imaging.

137
00:10:55,785 --> 00:10:57,352
The Cortana system's viable?

138
00:10:57,395 --> 00:10:59,093
Mm.

139
00:10:59,136 --> 00:11:01,748
So you'll integrate her
into a working Spartan?

140
00:11:02,923 --> 00:11:04,141
That's next.

141
00:11:04,185 --> 00:11:06,622
I bet it's John.

142
00:11:06,666 --> 00:11:08,363
<i>He was the special one.</i>

143
00:11:11,758 --> 00:11:15,587
Yes, he got himself
into some trouble recently.

144
00:11:15,631 --> 00:11:18,242
<i>This is our only way</i>
<i>of getting him out of it.</i>

145
00:11:20,157 --> 00:11:21,855
He was always willful.

146
00:11:24,771 --> 00:11:26,598
And none of this
bothers you.

147
00:11:26,642 --> 00:11:27,861
Should it?

148
00:11:30,994 --> 00:11:32,256
What about Miranda?

149
00:11:32,300 --> 00:11:33,605
Our daughter.

150
00:11:36,783 --> 00:11:39,481
I think that we have
everything we need.

151
00:11:39,524 --> 00:11:41,744
Do you remember
when you were my age

152
00:11:41,788 --> 00:11:44,616
and you weren't sure
whether flash-cloning

153
00:11:44,660 --> 00:11:46,706
would ever be made legal?

154
00:11:46,749 --> 00:11:49,143
And you wondered,
if you found yourself

155
00:11:49,186 --> 00:11:53,190
sitting opposite a living,
breathing version of you,

156
00:11:53,234 --> 00:11:56,628
would you actually be able
to go through with it?

157
00:11:56,672 --> 00:11:58,282
What happened?

158
00:12:01,242 --> 00:12:02,373
Progress.

159
00:12:18,215 --> 00:12:19,826
This isn't necessary.

160
00:12:21,523 --> 00:12:24,134
It's the only way to return you
to combat duty.

161
00:12:24,178 --> 00:12:25,875
I'm a Spartan.

162
00:12:25,919 --> 00:12:27,747
They can't afford to keep me
off the battlefield.

163
00:12:27,790 --> 00:12:29,749
That's exactly
what I argued

164
00:12:29,792 --> 00:12:32,316
to get us
to where we are now.

165
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,666
I don't need a babysitter.

166
00:12:34,710 --> 00:12:35,885
It's not a babysitter.

167
00:12:35,929 --> 00:12:37,974
This is an upgrade

168
00:12:38,018 --> 00:12:41,586
which will allow us
to analyze the artifact months,

169
00:12:41,630 --> 00:12:44,285
years faster
than by traditional means.

170
00:12:44,328 --> 00:12:46,374
And, most importantly,

171
00:12:46,417 --> 00:12:48,115
it will get you back
on the front lines

172
00:12:48,158 --> 00:12:49,899
where you belong,

173
00:12:49,943 --> 00:12:52,162
where you are so
desperately needed.

174
00:12:57,733 --> 00:12:58,995
Let's get started.

175
00:13:31,288 --> 00:13:33,160
I'm afraid
we'll need you awake.

176
00:13:34,596 --> 00:13:36,728
But this will keep
your body still.

177
00:13:36,772 --> 00:13:38,208
Will it hurt?

178
00:13:38,252 --> 00:13:39,296
Oh, yes.

179
00:13:44,214 --> 00:13:46,956
You have the most
beautiful brain.

180
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,916
Soon, you will be part
of something bigger.

181
00:13:53,093 --> 00:13:55,008
And better.

182
00:14:09,849 --> 00:14:11,111
- Ready?
- Mm-hm.

183
00:17:09,637 --> 00:17:11,073
Cortana?

184
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,610
When the game is over,

185
00:17:26,654 --> 00:17:28,873
the king and the pawn
go back into the same box.

186
00:17:35,054 --> 00:17:36,925
Hello, Dr. Halsey.

187
00:17:38,666 --> 00:17:41,321
It is so good
to finally meet you.

188
00:17:43,323 --> 00:17:45,151
That must be the Master Chief.

189
00:17:45,194 --> 00:17:46,630
Yes.

190
00:17:46,674 --> 00:17:48,328
His military record
is outstanding.

191
00:17:48,371 --> 00:17:51,722
Above the rest in strength,
stamina,

192
00:17:51,766 --> 00:17:53,463
and good instincts.

193
00:17:53,507 --> 00:17:56,249
A natural leader.
I see why you chose him.

194
00:17:56,292 --> 00:17:59,600
Cortana,
in the B-19 sub-stack

195
00:17:59,643 --> 00:18:01,341
of the lab's central repository,

196
00:18:01,384 --> 00:18:03,995
you'll find information
regarding an artifact

197
00:18:04,039 --> 00:18:05,432
that was found
on the planet Madrigal.

198
00:18:05,475 --> 00:18:07,782
I have it.

199
00:18:07,825 --> 00:18:09,914
I'm planning some experiments
to find out more

200
00:18:09,958 --> 00:18:12,526
about its provenance
and functionality,

201
00:18:12,569 --> 00:18:15,833
and I need you to process
that data in real time--

202
00:18:15,877 --> 00:18:17,618
Doctor, there's a problem.

203
00:18:17,661 --> 00:18:20,099
My neural implant
is operating perfectly,

204
00:18:20,142 --> 00:18:22,579
but I'm unable to take
full operational control

205
00:18:22,623 --> 00:18:23,928
of the subject.

206
00:18:23,972 --> 00:18:25,321
Yes.

207
00:18:25,365 --> 00:18:27,671
For the moment,
I have limited your access

208
00:18:27,715 --> 00:18:29,195
to the reticular formation.

209
00:18:29,238 --> 00:18:31,022
More of an on/off switch.

210
00:18:31,066 --> 00:18:33,547
My directive is to integrate
fully with the Master Chief,

211
00:18:33,590 --> 00:18:35,723
to optimize both his physical
and his mental performance.

212
00:18:35,766 --> 00:18:38,595
And in time you will do that,
and much more.

213
00:18:38,639 --> 00:18:39,770
But...

214
00:18:41,903 --> 00:18:44,732
why have you prevented me
from achieving my directive?

215
00:18:44,775 --> 00:18:46,908
Because John
is a central part

216
00:18:46,951 --> 00:18:48,866
of the examination
of the artifact.

217
00:18:48,910 --> 00:18:51,391
Before I hand him over, I need
to understand how it affects him

218
00:18:51,434 --> 00:18:53,567
and how it might adversely
affect you.

219
00:18:53,610 --> 00:18:55,003
Doctor,
surely I can withstand--

220
00:18:55,046 --> 00:18:56,700
He will be conscious
within the hour.

221
00:18:56,744 --> 00:18:58,876
Can I recommend
that you use this time

222
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,923
to familiarize yourself with
the trove of human knowledge

223
00:19:01,966 --> 00:19:03,490
that's now available to you?

224
00:19:05,056 --> 00:19:07,798
What will I do with
the other 52.4 minutes?

225
00:19:09,191 --> 00:19:10,888
That's very impressive.

226
00:19:10,932 --> 00:19:12,586
Uh...

227
00:19:12,629 --> 00:19:14,414
Don't worry.

228
00:19:14,457 --> 00:19:16,720
I'm gonna keep you very busy.

229
00:19:57,718 --> 00:19:59,894
<i>...first images</i>
<i>are coming in from Tantalus,</i>

230
00:19:59,937 --> 00:20:02,201
<i>which was completely wiped out</i>
<i>by Covenant forces...</i>

231
00:20:09,686 --> 00:20:11,166
- Hey!
- Hey.

232
00:20:11,210 --> 00:20:13,429
Where you goin'?

233
00:20:13,473 --> 00:20:16,476
<i>...futures sent markets rising,</i>

234
00:20:16,519 --> 00:20:19,043
<i>as prices</i>
<i>of heavy hydrogen surged</i>

235
00:20:19,087 --> 00:20:22,786

236
00:20:22,830 --> 00:20:24,614

237
00:20:24,658 --> 00:20:26,834
<i>that production will be back up</i>

238
00:20:26,877 --> 00:20:29,140
<i>Vinsher's peace treaty</i>

241
00:20:34,189 --> 00:20:38,019
<i>As they say, we're all</i>
<i>in this together now.</i>

242
00:20:41,196 --> 00:20:43,154
What do we got here?

243
00:20:43,198 --> 00:20:44,852
A gift from a cargo ship
from Earth.

244
00:20:46,506 --> 00:20:48,159
How many of these we got?

245
00:20:48,203 --> 00:20:49,639
Forty-two cases.

246
00:20:49,683 --> 00:20:51,424
- Come. Come on.
- Fourteen?

247
00:20:53,861 --> 00:20:55,166
Take a case.

248
00:20:55,210 --> 00:20:56,690
On me.

249
00:21:03,697 --> 00:21:05,307
I want to go back to Madrigal.

250
00:21:05,351 --> 00:21:07,004
What?

251
00:21:07,048 --> 00:21:09,485
- No.
- Vinsher's taking over.

252
00:21:09,529 --> 00:21:11,574
I have to join
the resistance.

253
00:21:11,618 --> 00:21:13,402
Little girl like you?

254
00:21:13,446 --> 00:21:15,883
I'm not a little girl.

255
00:21:15,926 --> 00:21:18,320
My family have been
on Madrigal

256
00:21:18,364 --> 00:21:19,974
since before
it was even a colony.

257
00:21:20,017 --> 00:21:21,671
I promised John
I'd keep you safe.

258
00:21:21,715 --> 00:21:24,370
I don't see any reason
to break that promise... yet.

259
00:21:24,413 --> 00:21:26,720
There are people still loyal to
my father in the capital city,

260
00:21:26,763 --> 00:21:28,025
I know it.

261
00:21:28,069 --> 00:21:29,244
Let them fight.

262
00:21:29,288 --> 00:21:30,680
It's none of my business.

263
00:21:30,724 --> 00:21:32,116
I'm not asking you
to fight.

264
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,901
I just need a ride
and protection

265
00:21:33,944 --> 00:21:36,120
until I find my people.

266
00:21:36,164 --> 00:21:38,601
I am not interested
in playing bodyguard

267
00:21:38,645 --> 00:21:40,299
to the princess of Madrigal.

268
00:21:40,342 --> 00:21:42,083
Then give me a ship.

269
00:21:43,824 --> 00:21:45,216
Right.

270
00:21:45,260 --> 00:21:47,610
Don't turn your back on me,
asshole!

271
00:21:56,271 --> 00:21:57,925
You're emotional.

272
00:21:57,968 --> 00:21:59,970
And, as a courtesy to John,

273
00:22:00,014 --> 00:22:02,190
I'm not gonna
crush your skull.

274
00:22:04,148 --> 00:22:06,977
Now, run on home
and I'll see you at dinner.

275
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:13,332
We're having chicken!

276
00:22:19,642 --> 00:22:21,340
So it's always on?

277
00:22:21,383 --> 00:22:23,385
She's always available
to you, yes.

278
00:22:25,735 --> 00:22:27,389
Would you like
to meet her?

279
00:22:27,433 --> 00:22:29,522
Not particularly, no.

280
00:22:29,565 --> 00:22:31,132
Come on.

281
00:22:33,308 --> 00:22:34,353
Cortana.

282
00:22:38,444 --> 00:22:40,097
Hello, Master Chief.

283
00:22:40,141 --> 00:22:41,360
I'm Cortana.

284
00:22:44,667 --> 00:22:45,929
Looks like you.

285
00:22:45,973 --> 00:22:47,453
Kind of you to say.

286
00:22:47,496 --> 00:22:48,932
I'm designed
to look familiar,

287
00:22:48,976 --> 00:22:50,760
my voice and accent
to be pleasant.

288
00:22:50,804 --> 00:22:52,588
I'm your built-in navigator,
battle strategis--

289
00:22:52,632 --> 00:22:54,285
How does it work?

290
00:22:54,329 --> 00:22:56,287
The system contains
a hollow particle exciter,

291
00:22:56,331 --> 00:22:59,334
which means she can appear
to you in any environment.

292
00:22:59,378 --> 00:23:00,596
So it answers
to my command?

293
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,293
I see it as more
of a partnership.

294
00:23:02,337 --> 00:23:04,078
And when I'm not deployed,
where does it go?

295
00:23:04,121 --> 00:23:06,167
Doctor, he must not be aware
what I'm capable of.

296
00:23:06,210 --> 00:23:08,430
On and off the field of battle,
I can--

297
00:23:08,474 --> 00:23:09,997
Thank you, Cortana.

298
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:11,172
Oh.

299
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,219
Well, it was a pleasure
to meet you, Master Chief.

300
00:23:15,263 --> 00:23:17,657
I'll speak to you soon...

301
00:23:18,832 --> 00:23:20,355
I guess.

302
00:23:23,663 --> 00:23:25,360
I don't like this.

303
00:23:25,404 --> 00:23:27,449
Trust me, you will.

304
00:23:27,493 --> 00:23:29,016
She's going to enhance
your abilities

305
00:23:29,059 --> 00:23:30,844
in the field
one hundredfold.

306
00:23:32,193 --> 00:23:34,151
You are the best
we've got.

307
00:23:34,195 --> 00:23:36,545
She's going to make you
even better.

308
00:23:38,242 --> 00:23:41,376
This is a great leap forward,
for all of us.

309
00:23:53,562 --> 00:23:55,825
Acknowledged
and received.

310
00:23:57,610 --> 00:23:59,699
Yes, sir,
that is the drill status.

311
00:24:03,746 --> 00:24:05,618
Commander,
a slipspace anomaly

312
00:24:05,661 --> 00:24:07,358
just appeared
on our starboard quarter.

313
00:24:11,362 --> 00:24:13,495
Covenant corvette.

314
00:24:13,539 --> 00:24:15,149
They appear
dead in the water.

315
00:24:15,192 --> 00:24:16,803
No fluctuations
from repulsor engines,

316
00:24:16,846 --> 00:24:18,369
no sign of field atomics.

317
00:24:18,413 --> 00:24:20,415
Minimal organic
heat signatures.

318
00:24:20,459 --> 00:24:21,764
And their weapons are cold.

319
00:24:24,593 --> 00:24:27,466
Open the artillery bay.
Bring us around 90 degrees.

320
00:24:27,509 --> 00:24:28,597
- Yes, sir.
- Prepare to fire.

321
00:24:34,690 --> 00:24:36,387
Forward gun is hot, sir.

322
00:24:36,431 --> 00:24:38,607
Communication incoming, sir.

323
00:24:38,651 --> 00:24:40,217
They're hailing us?

324
00:24:40,261 --> 00:24:43,046
Civilian emergency channel, sir.
One-six.

325
00:24:43,090 --> 00:24:45,222
Put it on the horn.

326
00:24:45,266 --> 00:24:47,094
Yes, sir.

327
00:24:47,137 --> 00:24:49,400
<i>I don't know how </i>
<i>much longer I can survive here.</i>

328
00:24:49,444 --> 00:24:51,315
<i>Hello? Can you hear me?</i>

329
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,230
<i>Anyone out there?</i>

330
00:24:53,274 --> 00:24:55,406
This is UNSC ship <i>Gladius.</i>

331
00:24:55,450 --> 00:24:56,930
Identify yourself.

332
00:24:56,973 --> 00:24:59,106
<i>Oh, no! I need help!</i>

333
00:24:59,149 --> 00:25:01,412
<i>I'm from planet Circumstance.</i>

334
00:25:01,456 --> 00:25:02,892
<i>We were taken prisoner.</i>

335
00:25:02,936 --> 00:25:04,720
<i>My family's dead.</i>

336
00:25:04,764 --> 00:25:06,896
<i>I only have my father's radio,</i>
<i>and it's dying.</i>

337
00:25:06,940 --> 00:25:09,029
How many onboard?

338
00:25:09,072 --> 00:25:10,552
<i>I'm alone here.</i>

339
00:25:10,596 --> 00:25:13,250
<i>The aliens abandoned in pods</i>

340
00:25:13,294 --> 00:25:15,426
<i>when the engines failed.</i>

341
00:25:15,470 --> 00:25:16,732
<i>Please help me.</i>

342
00:25:16,776 --> 00:25:18,908
- Prepare a drone pod.
- Yes, sir.

343
00:25:18,952 --> 00:25:22,303
Ma'am, we're sending you a pod.
Board it when it reaches you.

344
00:25:22,346 --> 00:25:23,826
<i>Do not bring any weapons</i>
<i>with you.</i>

345
00:25:23,870 --> 00:25:25,175
<i>Is that understood?</i>

346
00:25:25,219 --> 00:25:27,526
Yes, thank you.
Thank you.

347
00:25:27,569 --> 00:25:29,571
Please come quick.

348
00:25:29,615 --> 00:25:30,703
Thank you.

349
00:26:06,260 --> 00:26:07,522
I'm ready.

350
00:26:09,089 --> 00:26:10,612
Cortana?

351
00:26:10,656 --> 00:26:12,353
<i>I'm also ready, Dr. Halsey.</i>

352
00:26:17,010 --> 00:26:18,620
Okay, John.

353
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:42,470
Where were you playing today?

354
00:26:59,139 --> 00:27:01,184
Go ahead, Cortana.

355
00:27:01,228 --> 00:27:02,446
<i>Putting him into stasis</i>

356
00:27:02,490 --> 00:27:03,491
<i>to access the artifact.</i>

357
00:27:08,975 --> 00:27:11,934
<i>I'm now getting no readings</i>
<i>from the artifact at all.</i>

358
00:27:13,588 --> 00:27:14,807
That's fascinating.

359
00:27:17,287 --> 00:27:19,420
Cortana, release him.

360
00:27:29,212 --> 00:27:30,866
That was different.

361
00:27:35,566 --> 00:27:38,526
Okay, John, we're going to let
your vitals return to normal.

362
00:27:38,569 --> 00:27:40,659
Just give us a moment
to go through the data.

363
00:27:43,879 --> 00:27:45,881
<i>Dr. Halsey, if you gave me</i>

364
00:27:45,925 --> 00:27:47,709
<i>full control</i>
<i>of the subject now,</i>

365
00:27:47,753 --> 00:27:49,058
<i>my readings</i>
<i>will be more accurate.</i>

366
00:27:49,102 --> 00:27:50,625
It's unclear
why the artifact

367
00:27:50,669 --> 00:27:53,062
responds only to John as John,
but it does.

368
00:27:53,106 --> 00:27:55,064
<i>I was not designed</i>
<i>to be an assistant.</i>

369
00:27:55,108 --> 00:27:58,241
You were designed
to follow my orders.

370
00:27:58,285 --> 00:28:01,592
I'm not going to risk
our ability to interact with it.

371
00:28:02,811 --> 00:28:03,943
Are we done?

372
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,581
<i>Docking complete.</i>

373
00:28:44,157 --> 00:28:45,375
Step out.

374
00:28:52,339 --> 00:28:53,601
Get on the ground.

375
00:28:56,909 --> 00:28:58,432
Search.

376
00:29:06,788 --> 00:29:07,702
Clean.

377
00:29:09,356 --> 00:29:10,531
Did they hurt you?

378
00:29:12,620 --> 00:29:13,752
No, I...

379
00:29:14,883 --> 00:29:16,493
I'm okay.

380
00:29:16,537 --> 00:29:17,756
Stand, please.

381
00:29:23,631 --> 00:29:24,719
Welcome.

382
00:29:28,767 --> 00:29:29,898
Thank you.

383
00:29:33,380 --> 00:29:35,382
Christ! It's those crabs!

384
00:29:36,862 --> 00:29:38,820
- Seal the doors!
- No!

385
00:29:38,864 --> 00:29:41,823
They're in the walls!
Goddamn it!

386
00:29:55,097 --> 00:29:56,229
Fall back!

387
00:29:57,752 --> 00:29:58,666
Go, go! Get back!

388
00:30:04,933 --> 00:30:06,674
<i>Come in. Please respond.</i>

389
00:30:11,244 --> 00:30:13,594
<i>Commencing core protocol.</i>

390
00:30:24,431 --> 00:30:27,303
Where did the Demon
take my keystone?

391
00:30:27,347 --> 00:30:29,566
I don't know
what you're talking about.

392
00:30:35,616 --> 00:30:37,009
Where is your home base?

393
00:30:38,184 --> 00:30:40,882
I will tell you nothing,

394
00:30:40,926 --> 00:30:43,885
and you won't find anything
on our ship to lead you there.

395
00:30:45,321 --> 00:30:46,409
Humans.

396
00:30:48,411 --> 00:30:50,457
Just as ugly as I remember.

397
00:31:17,832 --> 00:31:19,965
Left, right, left.
Hustle!

398
00:31:21,488 --> 00:31:24,056
Come on, now!
You know it!

399
00:31:31,454 --> 00:31:32,542
Yeah!

400
00:31:34,196 --> 00:31:36,764
- Hey, Master Chief.
- Hey, Master Chief.

401
00:31:36,807 --> 00:31:38,157
Come on.

402
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,637
Hey, look, look, look.

403
00:31:40,681 --> 00:31:41,943
Let's go!

404
00:31:41,987 --> 00:31:43,945
He's back.

405
00:31:52,823 --> 00:31:54,695
Apple, key, longsword,
justice-Mandarin, banshee,

406
00:31:54,738 --> 00:31:58,525
flower, character-Russian, pig,
house, honor-Arabic, Goa, Earth.

407
00:32:06,272 --> 00:32:08,013
Ongoing, ziggurat, Meg,

408
00:32:08,056 --> 00:32:09,492
scarab, noun, scene,

409
00:32:09,536 --> 00:32:11,842
M-60 automatic,
infant, anterior.

410
00:32:11,886 --> 00:32:13,279
Form up.

411
00:32:21,417 --> 00:32:23,376
I've been cleared
to return to duty.

412
00:32:24,551 --> 00:32:26,031
If anyone has anything

413
00:32:26,074 --> 00:32:28,816
they'd like to ask
or tell me, please--

414
00:32:28,859 --> 00:32:30,774
We've been briefed, Chief.

415
00:32:30,818 --> 00:32:33,777
We've been fighting together
since we were kids, Chief.

416
00:32:33,821 --> 00:32:36,519
Whatever you do,
we trust you.

417
00:32:40,393 --> 00:32:41,698
Very well.

418
00:32:43,570 --> 00:32:45,224
As you were.

419
00:32:45,267 --> 00:32:47,574
Hello, can I have your attention
for a moment, please?

420
00:32:47,617 --> 00:32:49,619
- What are you doing?
- To those of you

421
00:32:49,663 --> 00:32:52,318
who haven't heard of me,
I'm Cortana.

422
00:32:52,361 --> 00:32:54,146
I'll be working
with Master Chief to provide

423
00:32:54,189 --> 00:32:56,626
logistical and tactical support
for Silver team.

424
00:32:56,670 --> 00:32:58,802
- No, I didn't summon you.
- Summon me?

425
00:32:58,846 --> 00:33:01,936
This is coming
from inside you, Chief?

426
00:33:01,980 --> 00:33:02,937
Go away.

427
00:33:04,112 --> 00:33:05,722
A.I. off.

428
00:33:05,766 --> 00:33:07,550
I'm introducing myself
to the rest of the team.

429
00:33:07,594 --> 00:33:09,335
Go. Disappear!

430
00:33:11,990 --> 00:33:14,514
I look forward
to working with you all.

431
00:33:18,953 --> 00:33:20,868
New A.I. Halsey's.

432
00:33:23,610 --> 00:33:25,786
It's temporary.

433
00:33:38,016 --> 00:33:39,930
That's Hessiod.

434
00:33:39,974 --> 00:33:42,368
It's a big ball of gas.

435
00:33:42,411 --> 00:33:44,544
And that one there
is Metisette,

436
00:33:44,587 --> 00:33:46,285
but no one goes there.

437
00:33:46,328 --> 00:33:48,591
I don't think
there's any air.

438
00:33:48,635 --> 00:33:50,724
How about Madrigal?
Can you see it?

439
00:33:52,291 --> 00:33:54,641
It's right... there.

440
00:33:54,684 --> 00:33:56,251
I don't see it.

441
00:33:56,295 --> 00:33:58,079
Doesn't mean
it's not there, silly.

442
00:33:58,123 --> 00:34:00,473
Kessler, time
to wash up, honey.

443
00:34:00,516 --> 00:34:02,257
You really
don't see it?

444
00:34:02,301 --> 00:34:03,824
Kess.

445
00:34:03,867 --> 00:34:05,217
I'll show you later.

446
00:34:06,348 --> 00:34:07,915
Bye.

447
00:34:12,311 --> 00:34:15,531
It's funny, I never look out
that window.

448
00:34:17,707 --> 00:34:19,187
Why not?

449
00:34:21,015 --> 00:34:22,495
When you stare into deep space,

450
00:34:22,538 --> 00:34:24,540
you're seeing things
as they once were.

451
00:34:25,846 --> 00:34:27,674
I choose to live
in the present.

452
00:34:29,328 --> 00:34:31,373
- I can't stay here.
- Mama, come!

453
00:34:32,853 --> 00:34:34,855
And if you go, and you die?

454
00:34:37,075 --> 00:34:40,469
The creatures who destroyed my
planet took everything from me.

455
00:34:40,513 --> 00:34:43,168
Everything but my spirit.

456
00:34:43,211 --> 00:34:45,648
Every day that I live
in that spirit

457
00:34:45,692 --> 00:34:47,259
is a victory over them.

458
00:34:47,302 --> 00:34:49,565
- Someday, you will--
- I'm not you.

459
00:34:49,609 --> 00:34:52,742
I can't just stay here
and eat and drink and smoke

460
00:34:52,786 --> 00:34:55,571
and pretend nothing else exists
outside that window.

461
00:34:59,923 --> 00:35:04,189
I'm sorry you lost your planet,
but Madrigal still has a chance.

462
00:35:06,060 --> 00:35:08,410
If I don't try,
I couldn't live with myself.

463
00:35:10,064 --> 00:35:11,587
I'm going to fight.

464
00:35:13,241 --> 00:35:16,244
The universe will be diminished
without you in it.

465
00:35:31,216 --> 00:35:32,869
<i>Whatever you're searching for,</i>

466
00:35:32,913 --> 00:35:34,044
<i>I can locate it.</i>

467
00:35:36,743 --> 00:35:38,484
Where are you?

468
00:35:38,527 --> 00:35:40,921
<i>I'm directly connected</i>
<i>to your auditory cortex.</i>

469
00:35:40,964 --> 00:35:42,488
Was I not clear with you?

470
00:35:42,531 --> 00:35:44,403
Told you to leave me alone.

471
00:35:44,446 --> 00:35:46,753
<i>Yes, you've gotten quite good</i>
<i>at dismissing me,</i>

472
00:35:46,796 --> 00:35:49,451
<i>but you're not as good </i>
<i>at targeting your search query.</i>

473
00:35:56,197 --> 00:35:57,938
<i>If I understand your objective,</i>

474
00:35:57,981 --> 00:35:59,679
<i>I can be helpful.</i>

475
00:35:59,722 --> 00:36:01,594
<i>I'm actually quite good</i>
<i>at this.</i>

476
00:36:05,946 --> 00:36:07,426
<i>I'm listening.</i>

477
00:36:12,344 --> 00:36:16,565
When I touch the artifact,
I see things.

478
00:36:16,609 --> 00:36:17,958
<i>What kind of things?</i>

479
00:36:20,352 --> 00:36:22,267
They feel like...

480
00:36:22,310 --> 00:36:24,094
memories, I guess.

481
00:36:24,138 --> 00:36:26,575
<i>It doesn't help me</i>
<i>to hear what you feel.</i>

482
00:36:26,619 --> 00:36:28,577
<i>What do you see, exactly?</i>

483
00:36:28,621 --> 00:36:30,057
A picnic.

484
00:36:31,667 --> 00:36:32,842
A forest.

485
00:36:35,149 --> 00:36:38,413
A dog. My dog, I think.

486
00:36:38,457 --> 00:36:40,154
<i>Still not helpful.</i>

487
00:36:40,198 --> 00:36:41,764
<i>But based on the keywords</i>
<i>in your query,</i>

488
00:36:41,808 --> 00:36:44,245
<i>I find 103 human colonies</i>
<i>or moons</i>

489
00:36:44,289 --> 00:36:46,856
<i>containing the specific flora</i>
<i>and fauna you are seeking.</i>

490
00:36:46,900 --> 00:36:48,510
<i>Would you like to see the list?</i>

491
00:36:48,554 --> 00:36:50,208
Yes.

492
00:36:50,251 --> 00:36:51,121
Please.

493
00:36:54,473 --> 00:36:56,388
I've been to some
of these planets.

494
00:36:56,431 --> 00:36:59,391
<i>There were Spartan deployments</i>
<i>to 23 of these planets.</i>

495
00:37:01,654 --> 00:37:02,785
Mamore.

496
00:37:04,178 --> 00:37:05,353
Mamore.

497
00:37:07,834 --> 00:37:10,184
We lost Nora 0-9-8
on Mamore.

498
00:37:10,228 --> 00:37:13,796
<i>Is the artifact bringing up</i>
<i>memories of Nora 0-9-8?</i>

499
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:14,841
No.

500
00:37:17,496 --> 00:37:19,106
I remember losing her,
I just...

501
00:37:20,325 --> 00:37:21,543
<i>What?</i>

502
00:37:21,587 --> 00:37:23,284
I don't feel anything.

503
00:37:23,328 --> 00:37:24,851
<i>That's as it should be.</i>

504
00:37:24,894 --> 00:37:26,461
<i>The hormonal pellet</i>
<i>in your spine</i>

505
00:37:26,505 --> 00:37:27,854
<i>suppresses adverse</i>
<i>emotional responses</i>

506
00:37:27,897 --> 00:37:29,551
<i>and protects mission readiness.</i>

507
00:37:29,595 --> 00:37:31,814
<i>It's part of what</i>
<i>makes you a Spartan.</i>

508
00:37:31,858 --> 00:37:33,729
I know, but when I touch
the artifact...

509
00:37:36,036 --> 00:37:38,168
I don't just see those memories.

510
00:37:41,694 --> 00:37:42,825
I feel them.

511
00:37:47,743 --> 00:37:50,006
<i>Dr. Halsey, we have an issue.</i>

512
00:37:53,401 --> 00:37:55,708
<i>Master Chief,</i>
<i>what are you doing?</i>

513
00:37:57,797 --> 00:38:00,190
<i>Chief is trying to remove</i>
<i>his emotional regulator.</i>

514
00:38:00,234 --> 00:38:01,801
- Why?
<i>- I believe it has to do</i>

515
00:38:01,844 --> 00:38:04,020
<i>with the visions</i>
<i>he's been experiencing.</i>

516
00:38:05,413 --> 00:38:07,328
<i>- I can put him in stasis.</i>
- No, no.

517
00:38:07,372 --> 00:38:09,591
I want you to help him.

518
00:38:09,635 --> 00:38:11,854
<i>Removing his pellet is a direct</i>
<i>violation of Section Three,</i>

519
00:38:11,898 --> 00:38:13,073
<i>Regulations</i>
<i>on Spartan Behavior.</i>

520
00:38:13,116 --> 00:38:14,727
I'll take care of the pellet.

521
00:38:14,770 --> 00:38:17,338
It's better that he sees you
as an accomplice

522
00:38:17,382 --> 00:38:19,253
rather than a spy.

523
00:38:19,297 --> 00:38:22,082
<i>This is not</i>
<i>what I signed up for.</i>

524
00:38:25,390 --> 00:38:27,087
It'll be easier
if you let me help.

525
00:38:33,789 --> 00:38:35,225
Down.

526
00:38:35,269 --> 00:38:36,314
Down...

527
00:38:37,576 --> 00:38:39,795
left... there.

528
00:38:39,839 --> 00:38:42,755
Now make a 1.3-centimeter
vertical incision.

529
00:38:44,278 --> 00:38:45,366
Trust me.

530
00:38:48,369 --> 00:38:50,066
Good.

531
00:38:50,110 --> 00:38:52,547
You should feel something solid
at the tip of the blade.

532
00:38:54,114 --> 00:38:56,856
Twist 45 degrees
and use the knife edge to...

533
00:39:09,303 --> 00:39:11,000
Thank you.

534
00:39:11,044 --> 00:39:13,394
Like I've been trying
to tell you, Master Chief,

535
00:39:13,438 --> 00:39:15,135
I'm here for you.

536
00:40:28,034 --> 00:40:30,210
You're okay.
You're okay.

537
00:40:50,099 --> 00:40:52,058
<i>Welcome to Reach Transit.</i>

538
00:40:52,101 --> 00:40:53,886
<i>Please advance</i>
<i>to the platform for boarding.</i>

539
00:40:53,929 --> 00:40:56,976
Cool beans! Oh,
it's my ball? Oh, my ball!

540
00:40:57,019 --> 00:40:59,544
<i>Chief, based on the readings</i>
<i>from your limbic system,</i>

541
00:40:59,587 --> 00:41:01,502
<i>this is a new experience</i>
<i>for you.</i>

542
00:41:01,546 --> 00:41:03,112
<i>Let me help you.</i>

543
00:41:03,156 --> 00:41:06,551
<i>This train makes stops</i>
<i>at Reach Naval Academy,</i>

544
00:41:06,594 --> 00:41:09,118
<i>Tchakova Park,</i>
<i>and Manassas.</i>

545
00:41:09,162 --> 00:41:11,294
<i>Do you know</i>
<i>where you'd like to go?</i>

546
00:41:17,866 --> 00:41:20,390
<i>Next stop, Tchakova Park.</i>

547
00:41:20,434 --> 00:41:22,001
<i>Tchakova Park</i>
<i>is our next stop.</i>

548
00:41:40,759 --> 00:41:42,804
<i>Hola, chica.</i>

549
00:42:33,376 --> 00:42:35,378
Hey. It's mine.

550
00:42:37,903 --> 00:42:39,600
Thanks.

551
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,567
<i>Is this why</i>
<i>you've removed your pellet?</i>

552
00:42:49,610 --> 00:42:51,830
<i>So you could</i>
<i>hear things differently?</i>

553
00:42:53,571 --> 00:42:55,573
Maybe I just wanted to hear it
like everyone else.

554
00:43:31,130 --> 00:43:32,479
Cortana.

555
00:43:33,741 --> 00:43:35,308
- Cortana.

556
00:43:36,962 --> 00:43:38,572
- Can you open this?
- Why do you need to--?

557
00:43:38,616 --> 00:43:39,834
Can you open this?

558
00:43:39,878 --> 00:43:41,793
Open it, Cortana.

559
00:43:46,493 --> 00:43:49,191
Chief,
do not touch the artifact.

560
00:43:49,235 --> 00:43:51,498
Each time you do, it stresses
your heart and nervous system.

561
00:44:01,769 --> 00:44:02,901
John!

562
00:44:04,424 --> 00:44:05,555
What did we talk about?

563
00:44:08,210 --> 00:44:09,255
I asked you what you're drawing.

564
00:44:13,781 --> 00:44:16,697
Let's have this be the end
of all this nonsense, John.

565
00:44:16,741 --> 00:44:19,352
Mom! I don't want to do it!

566
00:44:22,398 --> 00:44:24,705
Bury it, son.

567
00:44:24,749 --> 00:44:26,664
Another one?

568
00:44:26,707 --> 00:44:28,100
See how they go together?

569
00:44:31,625 --> 00:44:33,279
- Ohh.

570
00:44:38,937 --> 00:44:40,721
There's a second artifact.

571
00:44:40,765 --> 00:44:43,419
- Are you sure?
- I drew it.

572
00:44:43,463 --> 00:44:45,073
Over and over.

573
00:44:45,117 --> 00:44:47,075
My mother was there.

574
00:44:47,119 --> 00:44:49,077
My father buried...

575
00:44:49,121 --> 00:44:50,296
I saw...

576
00:44:50,339 --> 00:44:51,993
I must have seen...

577
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:55,257
What if the second artifact
is what we buried?

578
00:44:55,301 --> 00:44:56,824
Chief, your blood pressure

579
00:44:56,868 --> 00:44:58,478
is dangerously elevated.

580
00:44:58,521 --> 00:44:59,958
We need to return
to barracks right--

581
00:45:00,001 --> 00:45:01,611
Ice rings.

582
00:45:01,655 --> 00:45:04,049
The planet that I lived on
had rings of ice around it.

583
00:45:04,092 --> 00:45:05,790
How many planets
have rings on your list?

584
00:45:05,833 --> 00:45:07,530
Seen from the planet's surface?

585
00:45:07,574 --> 00:45:08,749
Yes.

586
00:45:08,793 --> 00:45:10,359
Only three.

587
00:45:11,883 --> 00:45:13,319
Show me.

588
00:45:21,631 --> 00:45:23,982
This is the place.

589
00:45:24,025 --> 00:45:25,679
I'm sure of it.

590
00:45:25,723 --> 00:45:27,202
<i>Eridanus Two.</i>

591
00:45:27,246 --> 00:45:28,769
But how could I have
been here?

592
00:45:28,813 --> 00:45:30,510
Eridanus is uninhabited.

593
00:45:30,553 --> 00:45:32,468
<i>It wasn't always.</i>

594
00:45:32,512 --> 00:45:35,341
<i>The planet was a select site </i>
<i>for the Reach for Life project.</i>

595
00:45:35,384 --> 00:45:38,387
<i>Reach for Life is an ambitious</i>
<i>feat of human ingenuity.</i>

596
00:45:38,431 --> 00:45:41,869
<i>Teams of UNSC biologists,</i>
<i>botanists, and geophysicists</i>

597
00:45:41,913 --> 00:45:44,002
<i>designed and built</i>
<i>the installation</i>

598
00:45:44,045 --> 00:45:46,482
<i>as a self-sustaining ecosystem.</i>

599
00:45:46,526 --> 00:45:50,225
To seed life
<i>on otherwise barren planets</i>

600
00:45:50,269 --> 00:45:53,141
<i>and hence to extend the reach</i>
<i>of humankind in the galaxy.</i>

601
00:45:53,185 --> 00:45:54,969
I'm from here.

602
00:45:55,013 --> 00:45:56,449
<i>That's according</i>
<i>to the promotional material.</i>

603
00:45:57,842 --> 00:46:00,018
So this is where I lived.

604
00:46:00,061 --> 00:46:02,977
<i>Based on your memories,</i>
<i>it's highly likely.</i>

605
00:46:03,021 --> 00:46:05,893
What do you mean,
"based on my memories"?

606
00:46:05,937 --> 00:46:07,895
Can't you just
check the records?

607
00:46:07,939 --> 00:46:09,418
<i>The operational files were lost</i>

608
00:46:09,462 --> 00:46:11,246
<i>when the program</i>
<i>was abruptly terminated.</i>

609
00:46:11,290 --> 00:46:13,161
Why? What happened?

610
00:46:13,205 --> 00:46:16,512
<i>A plague carried in on </i>
<i>an unauthorized transport ship.</i>

611
00:46:16,556 --> 00:46:19,341
<i>It spread quickly, killing off</i>
<i>most of the population.</i>

612
00:46:19,385 --> 00:46:21,213
There was no cure.

613
00:46:21,256 --> 00:46:23,128
What about my parents?

614
00:46:23,171 --> 00:46:24,912
<i>Survivors were evacuated</i>
<i>to Ehilend,</i>

615
00:46:24,956 --> 00:46:26,261
<i>where you were adopted</i>
<i>at age 6--</i>

616
00:46:26,305 --> 00:46:27,436
Cortana!

617
00:46:28,829 --> 00:46:31,658
What happened
to my parents?

618
00:46:31,701 --> 00:46:34,443
<i>In accordance with Emergency</i>
<i>Contact Protocol Upsilon,</i>

619
00:46:34,487 --> 00:46:36,794
<i>the planet was sealed off</i>
<i>to contain the virus.</i>

620
00:46:39,405 --> 00:46:40,623
<i>I have no other data.</i>

621
00:46:46,107 --> 00:46:48,457
<i>Oh. I'm sorry, Chief, I...</i>

622
00:46:48,501 --> 00:46:50,459
John, what's going on?

623
00:46:50,503 --> 00:46:51,721
Dr. Halsey.

624
00:46:51,765 --> 00:46:52,940
Why are you armored up?

625
00:46:52,984 --> 00:46:54,376
When I removed
my pellet,

626
00:46:54,420 --> 00:46:55,943
I realized that
an altered hormonal state

627
00:46:55,987 --> 00:46:57,771
might affect my interactions
with the artifact.

628
00:46:57,815 --> 00:47:00,121
- Removed your pellet?
- There are two artifacts.

629
00:47:00,165 --> 00:47:01,862
The one that I found
on Madrigal,

630
00:47:01,906 --> 00:47:04,952
and another one that
goes with it somehow, and...

631
00:47:04,996 --> 00:47:08,738
I saw it as a child
on Eridanus Two.

632
00:47:08,782 --> 00:47:10,436
Are you sure?

633
00:47:14,527 --> 00:47:17,051
The images that I've been
seeing...

634
00:47:20,141 --> 00:47:21,926
they're memories.

635
00:47:21,969 --> 00:47:24,015
My memories.

636
00:47:24,058 --> 00:47:25,799
Of my family.

637
00:47:29,368 --> 00:47:31,631
We'll send some probes
to Eridanus Two.

638
00:47:31,674 --> 00:47:33,981
- We'll start a survey, and--
- No.

639
00:47:34,025 --> 00:47:36,331
- I'm going.
- No.

640
00:47:36,375 --> 00:47:38,072
Send a probe.
Stare at all the data you want.

641
00:47:38,116 --> 00:47:39,813
I need to see it for myself.

642
00:47:39,857 --> 00:47:41,293
John...

643
00:47:43,730 --> 00:47:45,732
I'll come with you.

644
00:48:01,139 --> 00:48:03,141
ECAM panel two.

645
00:48:04,577 --> 00:48:06,535
FMS? Where the hell is it?

646
00:48:06,579 --> 00:48:09,016
- Ow! Damn it!

647
00:48:09,060 --> 00:48:11,192
Ow.

648
00:48:11,236 --> 00:48:15,718
These old birds, they're not
like the new UNSC ships.

649
00:48:15,762 --> 00:48:17,851
FMS is on the other side.

650
00:48:17,895 --> 00:48:21,507
I'm going to free Madrigal,
and you can't stop me.

651
00:48:21,550 --> 00:48:24,510
I could kill you for trying
to steal my favorite ship.

652
00:48:24,553 --> 00:48:26,207
That would stop you.

653
00:48:27,774 --> 00:48:29,297
Listen, Soren,

654
00:48:29,341 --> 00:48:30,908
if I can just find
my father's generals,

655
00:48:30,951 --> 00:48:32,953
I'll join the fight
against Vinsher.

656
00:48:34,172 --> 00:48:36,087
I... I have money.

657
00:48:36,130 --> 00:48:37,523
You got nothin'.

658
00:48:37,566 --> 00:48:38,959
My family is rich.

659
00:48:39,003 --> 00:48:40,918
- How rich?
- Deuterium rich.

660
00:48:43,181 --> 00:48:44,486
You think what's left
of your old man's army's

661
00:48:44,530 --> 00:48:46,662
got what it takes
to take on Vinsher?

662
00:48:46,706 --> 00:48:48,360
Not your problem.

663
00:48:48,403 --> 00:48:50,579
All you have to do is get me
to them and you get paid.

664
00:48:50,623 --> 00:48:52,407
Just like that?

665
00:48:52,451 --> 00:48:53,800
Just like that.

666
00:48:58,892 --> 00:49:00,850
Deuterium money, huh?

667
00:49:00,894 --> 00:49:02,504
I swear, you won't regret it.

668
00:49:02,548 --> 00:49:03,853
Oh, I know
I won't regret it.

669
00:49:03,897 --> 00:49:06,030
I'm gonna get paid
either way.

670
00:49:06,073 --> 00:49:08,075
If not from you,

671
00:49:08,119 --> 00:49:09,990
then from the bounty
on your head.

672
00:49:10,034 --> 00:49:11,339
You get me?

673
00:50:07,656 --> 00:50:09,397
That's Sangheili.

674
00:50:09,441 --> 00:50:11,225
Fragments of the <i>Gladius's</i>
last transmission.

675
00:50:11,269 --> 00:50:14,141
Electromagnetic scatter
corrupted the signal.

676
00:50:14,185 --> 00:50:16,491
A.I.'s been able to partially
reconstruct it,

677
00:50:16,535 --> 00:50:18,232
so no idea
who's doing the talking.

678
00:50:18,276 --> 00:50:20,713
It's probably an Elite.
They run the show.

679
00:50:20,756 --> 00:50:22,584
Grunts are chatty,
but not over comms.

680
00:50:22,628 --> 00:50:24,238
So, what are they saying?

681
00:50:24,282 --> 00:50:25,587
I'll work on it...

682
00:50:25,631 --> 00:50:27,154
soon as I recover
from my system crash.

683
00:50:28,634 --> 00:50:30,679
- Power surge?
- No, it was after that,

684
00:50:30,723 --> 00:50:34,205
right about the time Parangosky
created parallel teams.

685
00:50:35,902 --> 00:50:37,556
Dr. Halsey's headed off
on a mission,

686
00:50:37,599 --> 00:50:41,342
away from Fleetcom
and away from the artifact.

687
00:50:41,386 --> 00:50:43,475
Keep your critical data
behind a firewall

688
00:50:43,518 --> 00:50:46,260
and use your time wisely.

689
00:50:46,304 --> 00:50:47,827
Got it.

690
00:50:53,006 --> 00:50:55,052
So, this is it.

691
00:50:55,095 --> 00:50:57,663
It's what Cortana
was able to generate

692
00:50:57,706 --> 00:50:59,447
based on John's description.

693
00:50:59,491 --> 00:51:01,841
You saw what the smaller one
was capable of.

694
00:51:01,884 --> 00:51:05,279
Can you imagine
the combined potential?

695
00:51:05,323 --> 00:51:07,977
You really think we'll find
the other piece on Eridanus?

696
00:51:08,021 --> 00:51:09,849
Or is John
just imagining it?

697
00:51:13,679 --> 00:51:15,594
<i>It's impossible to say.</i>

698
00:51:18,336 --> 00:51:21,295
<i>The mind is certainly capable</i>
<i>of invention.</i>

699
00:51:27,432 --> 00:51:30,130
<i>Particularly when we're lost</i>
<i>in the dark...</i>

700
00:51:32,437 --> 00:51:33,525
<i>and desperate.</i>

701
00:51:43,883 --> 00:51:45,928
<i>But if we want to separate</i>

702
00:51:45,972 --> 00:51:49,236
<i>what's real</i>
<i>from what's imagined...</i>

703
00:51:51,543 --> 00:51:52,892
<i>we really have no choice.</i>

704
00:51:55,416 --> 00:51:58,158
We have to see
for ourselves.

705
00:51:58,202 --> 00:52:00,378
And if returning to Eridanus

<i>bring us all down.</i>

708

<i>That is what Cortana is for.</i>
