However, the fact that once the Spike was delivered the Spartans had no more enemy contact made both Perez and Kai suspect that something wasn't right. After [[John-117/Silver|John-117]] told her that [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]] had abandoned [[Reach/Silver|Reach]] to the [[Covenant]], Kai ran the simulation herself before being stopped by [[James Ackerson/Silver|James Ackerson]]. Kai questioned Ackerson about the Spike, pointing out how impossibly unlikely it was that the team would encounter no resistance trying to escape from a Covenant ship and accused Ackerson of manipulating the simulation to hide the truth, letting the Spartans win. Ackerson defended that the simulation didn't reflect reality but rather conditioned soldiers. Ackerson designed it to be difficult, but to give the Spartans hope in the moment when death seemed like the only outcome. Unconvinced, Kai changed the simulation from the Spike delivery to the [[Fall of Reach/Silver|Fall of Reach]] to demand answers about that.{{Ref/Reuse|Onyx}}

Later, Ackerson had the computer run expanded simulations on the effects of the Spike, revealing that the virus wasn't an override but rather compressed the ship's fusion drive, creating an explosion powerful enough to destroy a star system. Confronted by John and Kai, Ackerson revealed the truth to them, having realized that Admiral [[Margaret Parangosky/Silver|Parangosky]] intended to sacrifice as many Spartans as it took to deploy the Spike and destroy the [[First Fleet of Solemn Accord]] and [[Installation 04]].{{Ref/Reuse|Thermopylae}}
