Upon arriving inside the ship, Jerome dispatched a group of [[Sangheili Ranger]]s at R-7016-5093 and inserted Isabel's [[data crystal chip]] into the nearest [[holotank]].{{Ref/Reuse|TF}} With this done, Isabel was quickly able to access a plethora of systems throughout the ship. She located the weapons and wasted no time in firing its main [[energy projector]] upon a Banished encampment below. As planned, the beam penetrated the Ark's outer crust and alerted vast numbers of [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s.

Right after the combination of the assault from the Sentinels and Isabel's meddling caused part of the ship to lose power, a group of [[Jiralhanae]] charged Jerome, who was guarding Isabel's chip. He fought them off as Sentinel after Sentinel careened into the ship until finally, the structure was torn in two along the line of attack. As the carrier lost all structural integrity and began to fall from its position above the Ark, the remaining Sentinels returned to where they came from.
