Roland was later subverted by Catherine Halsey, who used the phrase "Undid Iridium" to take control of him. She forced him to give her access to the ship's computer. Roland managed to free himself from Halsey's control and had her arrested, but not before Halsey had managed to contact Jul 'Mdama.  Moments later, Prometheans began materializing all over the ship via the artifact, while Covenant forces attacked the ship from outside.
