Flashback Third person
Auntie Dot (COM): "Our foe is more devious than we imagined. That spire was indeed a teleporter linked to a cloaked, Covenant Super-Carrier... A grave threat."
Noble Three, Five and Six arrive at a cave, Jorge carrying a large briefcase.
Auntie Dot (COM): "Thankfully, help is imminent. Sixty percent of the UNSC fleet is en route to Reach from existing deployments. The first battle group should arrive within forty-eight hours."Jorge tosses the briefcase at Emile's feet.
Jun-A266: "Forty-eight hours? (removes his helmet) That's imminent?"
Jun wipes off Jorge's shoulder pauldron.
Jun-A266: "Uh-oh. Who's your money on this time?"Jorge-052: "Her."
Jun-A266: "You always pick her."
Jorge-052: "She's always had him dialed in."
Catherine-B320: "That thing's crushing us, and we're waiting for backup? They'll be backing up a graveyard."
Carter-A259: "All our nukes are either out-system or went down with the ships that carried them. You're preaching to the converted."
Catherine-B320: "How converted?"
Carter-A259: "I know that look, Kat."
Catherine-B320: "You can say no."
Carter-A259: "No."
Catherine-B320: "You don't even want to hear it?"
Carter-A259: "...Fine. I'll hear it."
Catherine-B320: "Remember that accident a couple years back? Colony ship en route to Cygnus . Seven hundred dead?"
Carter-A259: "Vaguely. A slip-space drive malfunction, right?"
Catherine-B320: "Actually, it worked fine. The drive was mounted improperly after a service haul-out. When it fired it teleported half the ship to oblivion."
Carter-A259: "And this is relevant...how?"
Catherine-B320: "A certain Covenant Supercarrier could, with some assistance, suffer the same unfortunate accident..."
Carter-A259: "Even for you, Kat, that's-"
Catherine-B320: "Inspired?"
Carter-A259: "Not the word I would use."
Jorge-052: "What's going on?"
Carter-A259: "Go ahead. Explain.
Kat reaches for Emile's kukri, he stops her.
Catherine-B320: "May I?"
Emile allows her to take it.
Emile-A239: "Don't cut yourself."
Catherine-B320: "Objective? Destroy Covenant Carrier in geosynchronous orbit above us."
Jorge-052: "This sanctioned, sir?"
Carter-A259: "What do you think?"
Jorge-052: "Oh."
Catherine-B320: "Method? A slip-space drive in lieu of the nukes we don't have. Delivery system? Us. Solvable? Getting us up there. That, and getting our hands on a slip-space drive."Kat gives Emile back his kukri.
Catherine-B320: "Thank you for sharing."
