Various Covenant soldiers including a [[Sangheili Zealot]] attempt to repulse overwhelming numbers of Flood.  The Chief kills them all and eventually makes his way to the bottom of the canyon.

==Production notes==
''Two Betrayals'' was primarily designed by [[Bungie]] designer [[Dan Orzulak]] but it was eventually given to fellow designer [[Tyson Green]].{{Ref/YouTube|Id=IGN|9ndZbg8Mr-Q|IGN|Halo: Combat Evolved Devs React to Speedrun (Martin O’Donnell, Marcus Lehto)}} ''Two Betrayals'' shares most of its level geometry with ''[[Assault on the Control Room]]'', albeit adding the phase pulse generator rooms and skipping the opening section of ''Assault on the Control Room'': from where ''[[Echo 419]]'' deploys John-117 to where he first finds members of [[Fireteam Zulu]].
Cortana says British phrases like 'sod off' and 'toady about' in the opening cinematic of the level, because [[Jason Jones]] originally wanted Cortana to have a British accent. Cortana's voice actress [[Jen Taylor]] had already recorded the lines in her natural American accent when [[Joseph Staten]] raised the issue to Audio Director [[Martin O'Donnell]]. The dialogue and American accent were kept in the final release due to time constraints.{{Ref/Film|Id=Commentary|[[Halo 3 Legendary Edition|''Halo 3'' Legendary Edition]], Halo: Combat Evolved developer commentary}} In ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', Cortana says "piss off" rather than "sod off".
343 Guilty Spark's dialogue "''Last time you asked me if it were my choice, would I do it?''" was a mystery for 12 years until the release of the novel ''[[Halo: Silentium]]'', which reveals that 343 Guilty Spark was referring to a question asked by the [[IsoDidact]] before 343 Guilty Spark was assigned to Installation 04, which was: "''Tell me [[Chakas]], if it was your choice, after all we have seen and survived... would you fire the rings?''"{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Silentium|Page=314}} This revelation provides context for many of 343 Guilty Spark's cryptic comments to John-117, in which he addresses the Master Chief as if they had met before and presumes the Spartan to be fully aware of protocol; it can be inferred that Spark somehow believed John to be the IsoDidact.
The events of this level occurs concurrently with the ''[[Halo: Fireteam Raven]]'' level ''[[Ice Canyon]]'', which at one point take places at the canyon where John-117 finds the Banshee to reach the final phase pulse generator. John-117 makes a brief cameo on ''Ice Canyon'', in which he uses an M90 shotgun to kill a [[Flood tank form]] that was charging at [[Fireteam Raven]]. He then nods at the ODSTs before leaving them.

*Some have wondered why Cortana says things like 'sod off' and 'toady about' in the level's cinematic. The reason for this is that apparently [[Jason Jones]] wanted Cortana to have a British accent originally. This was confirmed in the ''[[Halo 3 Legendary Edition]]'' disc. In ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', Cortana says 'piss off' rather than 'sod off'.
*One can snipe the [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraith]] driver at the beginning of the level. When the [[Rock Anthem for Saving the World|soundtrack]] starts, aim at the Wraith and one will see a Sangheili. The player still can't drive the Wraith, but this trick can help favourably in Legendary.

*This level is similar to the ''[[Halo 2]]'' level, ''[[Quarantine Zone]]'' as they take place at night in a snowy location, have the player fighting the Flood and Sentinels, involves the Index being stolen, and involves betrayals at the beginning or end of the level with someone who helps guide the player to the Index.

*There are a few upturned vehicles scattered around that have dead Flood combat forms beside them, implying that they drove them, even though they cannot drive vehicles in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''.

*In the ''[[Halo 2]]'' level ''[[The Heretic]]'' [[Unidentified master gunnery sergeant|an unnamed gunnery sergeant]] discusses the damage done to the Master Chief's old armor as he equips the Master Chief with a new one. Included is damage to the power supply. In the ending of this level and the accompanying scene in ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', [[Cortana]] mentions possible damage to the suit from using it to power a teleport jump. This level is thus likely where that damage occurred.

*Due to it being the same location, you backtrack much of the area seen in the level ''[[Assault on the Control Room]]''. However, while players have the option of flying a [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshee]] off the bridge to the Control Room if you are quick enough to grab one and skipping the last corridor part of the ''Assault on the Control Room'' level, here the game has you land on the bridge. You also skip the opening part of ''Assault on the Control Room'' going from where ''[[Echo 419]]'' drops you off to where you find the Marines as the location where the Marines were found is where the last Banshee is found in this level.
*Like ''[[Assault on the Control Room]]'', this level has playable Banshees. However, unlike ''Assault on the Control Room'', using the Banshees is not optional as they are required to reach the mission objectives.

*When you cross through the previously played areas, all of the bodies from the previous battle are gone along with all of the wrecked vehicles and Shade turrets.
*This is the first level where you have to fight against all three of the other factions on Halo who are now all your enemies: the Covenant, the Flood and the Sentinels. Previously only the Covenant and/or the Flood was the enemy and the Sentinels were allies.
