+*'''Halsey''': "Taking a reading."
+''The package burst open and the cover pieces float mid-air.''
+*'''Halsey''': "Oh my..."
+''Cut to Lasky who is looking inside the laboratory from outside.''
+*'''Lasky''': "Doctor!"
+*'''Halsey''': "A moment please."
+''Dr. Halsey taps one of the floating pieces with her pen.''
+*'''Halsey''': "Intriguing."
+*'''Roland''': "Doc, this thing looks... kinda familiar."
+*'''Halsey''': "Yes. It's very similar to an [[Riemann matrix|A.I. Matrix]]. But we expected that..."
+''As Dr. Halsey takes a closer look at the device, which releases an energy burst.''
+*'''Halsey''': "Woah!"
+''Dr. Halsey falls to her back as the energy released from the device disrupts the surrounding lights and monitors.''
+*'''Lasky''': "Dr. Halsey!"
+''Lasky, Palmer, and Majestic squad rush into the room to help Halsey who pick herself up.''
+*'''Halsey''': "Roland, freeze all monitors!"
+''All the monitors freeze frame showing pictures of scenery.''
+*'''Roland''': "Pictures?"
+''Thorne approaches one of the pictures which shows several buildings.''
+*'''Roland''': "Civilian life. Maybe a colony or something."
+*'''Halsey''': "Not pictures...memories."
+''Halsey turns around to look at the device.''
+*'''Halsey''': "An alien A.I. full of human memories."
+*'''Thorne''': "That's [[New Phoenix]]."
+''Thorne turns around to face the group.''
+*'''Thorne''': "I grew up there."
+*'''Roland''': "Nah. That can't be right."
+''Lasky and Palmer exchange looks.''
+*'''Halsey''': "You knew this, didn't you, Captain Lasky."
+*'''Lasky''': "The UNSC is aware that Prometheans are ancient humans."
+*'''Halsey''': "That is not ancient. That is the [[New Phoenix Incident|attack on Earth from six months ago]]."
+''Thorne turns around to face another monitor which shows the [[Requiem slipspace artifacts|mysterious Forerunner artifact]].''
+*'''Thorne''': "You knew."
+*'''Lasky''': "This is impossible, I...I have no idea how the hell these memories got from Earth to here."
+''Thorne briefly looks at Lasky before storming out the room.''
+*'''Palmer''': "Thorne."
+''Thorne ignores Palmer and leaves the room. Dr. Halsey turns to look at the monitor he last observed.''
+*'''Lasky''': "What is it, doctor?"
+''Halsey also sees the artifact. Cut to the artifact. Lasky, Palmer, and Halsey (who is holding her datapad) proceed towards the artifact.''
+*'''Halsey''': "I suspect we misunderstood the artifact's true purpose."
+*'''Lasky''': "And that is?"
+*'''Halsey''': "I'm working on it."
+''Lasky and Palmer stop as Halsey walks closer to the artifact. The view cuts to a blue orb which shows Halsey typing on her datapad. Cut back to Halsey looking down at her datapad.''

+*'''Palmer''': "It's amusing to see you not have the answer to everything, for once."
+*'''Halsey''': "Enough has been kept from me. I've decided to start questioning all my prior assumptions."
+*'''Lasky''': "Doctor, this is as much a surprise to us as it is to you."
+*'''Halsey''': "I suspect that's a lie, Captain."
+''Cut back to the blue orb. Jul 'Mdama is seen talking to it revealing that he is the unidentified individual that Halsey was communicating with.''
+*'''Jul 'Mdama''': "So perhaps we can assist one another. You are familiar with the [[Librarian]]?"
+*'''Halsey''': "The Librarian?"
+*'''Lasky''': "Doctor?"
+''Palmer walks over to Dr. Halsey and snatches the datapad out of her hand.''
+*'''Palmer''': "What are you really doing?"
+''Halsey attempts to get it back but Palmer holds her back. Palmer takes a look at the datapad.''
+*'''Palmer''': "Who are you talking to?"
+''Palmer tosses the datapad towards Lasky who catches it.''
+*'''Halsey''': "You rude-"
+''Palmer takes out her magnum and points it at Halsey's head.''
+*'''Palmer''': "You want rude?"
+''Lasky scrolls through the datapad with a pin.''
+*'''Lasky''': "Palmer, take Dr. Halsey into custody."
+''Cut back to the view screen. Jul 'Mdama observes Palmer taking Halsey away. Suddenly something activates in the background. Jul turns around.''
+*'''Glassman''': "Haha! It works!"
+''Glassman activates the shrine which now has a blue sphere around it. All the Sangheili including Gek proceed to bow.''
+*'''Jul 'Mdama''': "Glassman?"
+*'''Glassman''': "Well at least...something... works."
+''Jul 'Mdama stands next to Glassman and both individuals continue to observe the shrine. Cut to Thorne who is walking towards the artifact on ''Infinity''.''
+*'''Thorne''': "Why did those people see you?"
+''Thorne touches the artifact which activates. A portal appears on the artifact.''
+*'''Thorne''': "What?"
+''Thorne turns to escape, but he is sucked into the artifact. The artifact translocates Thorne to "[[the Cauldron]]" on Requiem. As Thorne gets up, [[seven]] [[Sangheili Storm]] approach him, activating their energy swords. Cut to black.''
