GAME ENGINE FOOTAGE

''Warning message is shown thoughout the Pelican. While the Pelican repeats "Warning".''


 * Pelican warning system: "Warning. Warning. Warning. Warning. Warning. Warning. Warning. Warning. Warning. Warning."

The Pelican shakes and the Pilot wakes up.


 * Pilot: Gasp


 * Pelican warning system: "Warning. Warning. Warning. Pressure building at lines four, seventeen, and thirty three. Pressure building at lines four, seventeen, and thirty three.  Pressure building at lines four, sev…"

The pilot takes out two cards and inserts them into slots.


 * Pelican warning system: "Protocol accepted."

Pelican shakes again causing a breach.


 * Pelican warning system: "Breach detected."

The pilot goes to open the door to the cockpit while the warning system goes off.


 * Pelican warning system: "Breach detected. Breach detected. Breach detected. Breach detected. Breach detected. Breach detected. Breach detected."

''The pilot gets though the door and goes to seal the breach, succeeding only to fall to the ground opening a crate with "Meal" rations in it and a device with a recording of a woman and the pilots daughter plays. The device has a ring that gets smaller, starting at Green, to Yellow, to Red.''


 * Pelican warning system: "Breach contained. Breach contained."


 * Woman: "Daddy's listening. Can you say hi?"


 * Pilot's daughter: "Hi."


 * Woman: "And how big are you?"


 * Pilot's daughter: "How big are you?"


 * Woman: "Can you tell daddy how big you are? Are you sooo big?"


 * Pilot's daughter: "So big."


 * Woman: "Heh, can you sing?"


 * Pilot's daughter: "Tingle tingle."


 * Woman: "Good singing. How about 'I miss you'?"


 * Pilot's daughter: "Miss you."


 * Woman: "And 'I love you'."


 * Pilot's daughter: "I love you."

''A timeskip happens and the pilot is a little older with a beard. He goes to pick up the device playing the recording.''


 * Woman: "I love you daddy."


 * Pilot's daughter: "I love you daddy."


 * Woman: "And I can't wait to see you. Can you say 'see you'?"


 * Pilot's daughter: "See you."


 * Woman: "And then 'bye bye'."


 * Pilot's daughter: "Bye bye…"

''The device dies as the pilot holds it close. The pilot tears up.''


 * Pilot: Sad gasps

The Pelican cockpit lights up green as the warning system goes off.


 * Pelican warning system: "Signal detected. Signal detected. Tag designation friendly. Signal detected. Tag designation friendly. Signal detected. Tag designation friendly. Signal detected. Tag desig…"

''The pilot runs to the cockpit, the pelican readouts looking over "Local Ref Zeta" and the readouts reading the tag designation as "S_117". The pilot flips a few switches and picks up a headset.''


 * Pilot: "This is UNSC Pelican Echo 216. Can you hear me? This is UNS-"

The Pilot wipes the Pelican window to reveal John-117 floating in front of it in space near debris.

Time skip happens and the Pilot got John-117 onboard and hooked his MJOLNIR GEN3 up to the pelican.


 * Pilot: "Looks like the main power cells are fried. Armor shutdown, triggering survival mode. I'm going to try to override."

The pilot picks up two cables and puts them together causing a spark.


 * Pilot: "Okay, if you can hear me in there, I hope you're ready. Please don't die. Please don't die."

''John-117's VISR activates and cycles though several processes. Note: Any "xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxx" was a cycle of codes.''

 * Pilot: Hopeful gasps

The Pelican starts to light up again, and the pilot jumps up and down in excitement.


 * Pilot: "Yes! Yes! Yes! We're going home! Haha! Welcome back, Chief. I rerouted what little power I had into your suit."

The pilot walks towards the Chief to look over him.


 * Pilot: "Hmph, looks like there's a problem with the servos in your hands. Stay calm, you been out there awhile. I know I saw something in here to check your armor's diagnostics."

''Chief looks at his hands, and looks at a chip with the AI serial number "CTN 0453-0". He proceeds to put it into his helmet. This makes a prompt appear on the VISR.''

WEAPON CONTAINMENT DEVICE INSERTED VERIFICATION ID [309-270-238] > > AI NOT DETECTED < < CONTINUE?

''Chief proceeds to walk forward, disconnecting himself from the Pelican. This causes the pilot to be careful regarding him.''


 * Pilot: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Easy there, big guy. You're not-"


 * John-117: "Status report."


 * Pilot: "Status report? What? There's something you need to see, Chief."

''Chief walks to the cockpit of the Pelican. Outside the Pelican is a heavily damaged Halo Installation.''


 * Pilot: "We lost. Lost everything. There's nothing left for us here. I don't even know where here is."

The pelican gets hit by a EMP-like shock, causing systems to go into flux.


 * Pilot: "No, no no no! Not them! Not again! We need to run!"


 * John-117: "No, we need to fight."

''John grabs an Assault rifle and proceeds to walk into the cargo bay of the Pelican. The pilot closes the cockpit door''


 * John-117: "Get ready."

The pilot opens the cargo bay door to a bright light, and Chief runs into it.

The music intensifies and the Halo Theme plays.

Halo Infinite Holiday 2020

John is walking in a room with a hologram of the damaged Halo ring, while Cortana says a line of dialogue about Chief.


 * Cortana (narration): "I chose you because you were special."

''Chief removes the chip in his helmet, and walks into a blue light to reconnect. ''


 * Cortana (narration): "I knew we would be perfect together, and I was right."

Secret Audio
During the VISR boot up shutdown, there was a QR code that said "http://aka.ms/LX0.0082711LY-0.0251671LZ0.0000085". This directed users to "https://content.halocdn.com/media/Default/home/343/lx0.0082711ly-0.0251671lz0.0000085-99ddb8f420eb4372922fa21859a2b8ca.mp3" which was an audio file.


 * Cortana: "This? This is part of me! I don't know why? I don't know how? But it is me!"

Trivia

 * The trailer had several codes for "Xbox Game Pass Ultimate" hidden in the VISR boot up screen. These however are all redeemed.
 * There is binary hidden in the VISR boot up that reads "01101111 01101000 00100000 01101000 01100101 01111001", this translates to "oh hey".
