==Summary==
==Summary==
Another one of Halsey's transmissions was routed through Apex. Crimson is sent to investigate. Due to the heavy enemy presence in the area, Dalton provides Crimson with Scorpion tanks. Crimson fights their way through Apex, but their progress is hampered by a series of shield walls blocking their route. Fortunately, Roland is able to hack the shield controls, weakening the shields. This enables Crimson to destroy the barriers. Eventually, Crimson reaches the facility where Halsey's transmission was routed through. They clear out the Covenant and Prometheans, and access the comm terminal. Roland confirms his [[S1/Key/Clean Up|previous findings]] that Halsey's last transmission was routed to Lockup.

==Helpful Hint==
==Helpful Hint==
You can take the scorpion through the sidepath, via a secret. Go to the first small tower structure you see. To do this, you'll need to climb a small ledge. If you steer to the right and floor the accelerator, you can climb the ledge to the right tower, and sneak past. This is especially useful in legendary.
You can take the [[M808C Scorpion|Scorpion]] through the sidepath, via a secret. Go to the first small tower structure you see. To do this, you'll need to climb a small ledge directly across from the tower. If you steer to the right and floor the accelerator, you can climb over the ledge and sneak past. This is especially useful in legendary though it can take several tries to accomplish. The player encounters several similar obstacles along the path, but there are ways around and over them which are easier to get around than this first obstacle. When the player nears the LZ where the replacement Scorpion is dropped however, it reaches a point where the path and obstacles become too narrow and the Scorpion can't get through and can get stuck trying. However, the Scorpion can get close enough to take out most of the enemy forces in the LZ, including a [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] and some Ghosts.

==Trivia==
*In ''[[Key/Clean Up|Clean Up]]'', its stated that Halsey's signal has been tracked from "[[Control]]" to "[[Lockup]]." However, in this level [[Fireteam Crimson]] are deployed at "[[Apex]]" where the signal is ''again'' detected to have been sent to "Lockup." It is only after the fight at "Apex" that Crimson gets sent to "Lockup."
