While al-Cygni originally believed [[Insurrectionist]]s were attacking cargo freighters around Harvest.<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 123''</ref> and had laid her trap with them in mind, it was actually the work of the crew of ''[[Minor Transgression]]'', a Covenant exploration vessel.

On January 16, 2525, al-Cygni, Johnson, and Byrne appropriated ''Bulk Discount'' from [[Sif]], and with al-Cygni's sloop ''[[Walk of Shame]]'' docked underneath initiated a Slipspace jump to Madrigal.  Minutes later both ships exited Slipspace, ''Walk of Shame'' disengaged and disappeared from radar contact, and ''Bulk Discount'' began transmitting an fake SOS to lure the raiders into attacking.  The SOS was picked up by Sif, who verified the transmission was false (the message referenced a nonexistent captain).<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 175-176''</ref>

Shortly afterward, ''Minor Transgression'' arrived and attacked ''Bulk Discount'', using [[Pulse laser turret|lasers]] to pierce the freighter's hull and vent its atmosphere to kill any humans on board without harming the relic they sought. When the [[Jackal]] complement entered the freighter, they discovered they had accidentally disabled the [[artificial gravity]]. Johnson and Byrne, clad in [[vacuum suit]]s and had therefore survived the loss of atmosphere (and, therefore, presumably still giving the Covenant vessel's [[Luminary]] a signal that "relics" has survived the assault as well) subsequently ambushed and killed three Jackals, [[Zhar (Kig-yar)|Zhar]] among them.<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 124-131''</ref>
