==Detailed summary==
The [[Master Chief|Chief]] is questioned about where the [[Key of Osanalan]] is on the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]], while UNSC forces on [[Io]] try contacting him through his helmet. The [[Brute Chieftain]] interrogates the Chief, and he gives a reply, telling him it meant "to always strip your enemies of weapons before you interrogate him." He promptly sticks a [[plasma grenade]] on the Chieftain's genitals, blowing him and several [[Grunts]] and [[Jackals]] nearby away. Some surviving Grunts get together, trying to find the escaped Chief.
[[John-117]] is questioned about where the [[Key of Osanalan]] is on the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]], while [[Io Station]] tries to contact him. The [[Brute Chieftain]] interrogates the Chief, and he gives a reply, telling him it meant "to always strip your enemies of weapons before you interrogate him." He promptly sticks a [[plasma grenade]] on the Chieftain's genitals, blowing him and several [[Grunts]] and [[Jackals]] nearby away. Some surviving Grunts get together, trying to find the escaped Chief.


The scene cuts to [[Cleveland]], where the humans are gathered together, questioned by a Brute about the Key of Osanalan, [[Ruwan]] knows exactly what it was. The Brute, ordering the humans to bring him the key, got his sentence cut off, and is attacked by [[ODST]] troops dropping off from [[Hornets]]. Everyone flees, and as [[Myras Tyla]] escapes with Ruwan, she questions how she had lived her life, and blames it all on her boyfriend, Philip. With twisted fervor, she pushes herself to escape, while thinking of spending a new life with Ruwan. She picks up a fallen [[plasma pistol]].

== Trivia ==
*When the Master Chief sticks the "Brute in the privates", it should have actually bounced off, as in ''[[Halo 3]]'', the grenades merely bounce off Chieftains. This could be that the technology advanced between the time period or that there was no protection in that area of the armor or the armor is shut off.
*Oddly, when the Master Chief is being interrogated, there is a Grunt with a [[Fuel Rod Gun]] (''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' stripped-down, violet version) and a curved backpack and head (''Halo: Combat Evolved'' version). Later, there is a Grunt with a cylinder backpack attached to his hind.
