Their [[War Games]] session is interrupted by [[Captain]] [[Thomas Lasky]] who asks to speak with Commander Palmer. Lasky informs her that they have been requested to appear before the [[UNSC Security Council]] at [[HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6]]. At the hearing, the council expresses misgiving about Lasky's handling of the [[Requiem Campaign]]. [[Admiral]] [[Serin Osman]] berates Lasky over the complete destruction of [[Requiem]] and the failed assassination of [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]]. Osman then asks Palmer if Lasky had sent [[Fireteam Majestic]] to stop her from eliminating Halsey. Wanting to protect Lasky from any ramifications, Palmer lies and tells Osman that Majestic was there as backup. | ||
Shortly after, [[Fleet Admiral|Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood|Hood]] arrives onboard ''Infinity'' to speak with Lasky. He tells Lasky that the {{UNSCShip|Vociferous}} is assigned to pursue [[Jul 'Mdama]] as he needs ''Infinity'' to aid in peace talks between the [[Sangheili]] and the [[Jiralhanae]].

Lasky, Palmer and Jackknife join the delegates inside the plasma center as [[Paul DeMarco]] of Majestic and [[Fireteam Bailey]] act as [[overwatch]]. The delegation is caught off guard when [[Vata 'Gajat's mercenary group|Covenant mercenaries]] blast into the conference chamber. The Spartan IVs defend the delegation and escort them to a nearby parts depot when their [[DS-004|evacuation shuttle]] is destroyed. With communications with their orbiting fleets blocked, the delegation are left without reinforcements. | Shortly after, [[Fleet Admiral|Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood|Hood]] arrives onboard ''Infinity'' to speak with Lasky.
