Blue Team returned to the surface of [[Installation 03]] from the [[Composer's Abyss]] and made it just in time to witness the Didact's new Composer rising from the Abyss. John fell behind the rest of Blue Team—due to his conversation with Static Carillon—while the Didact confronted Fred, Kelly, and Linda. The Didact attacked the Spartans and prepared to finish them off, unaware of John's location. As the Didact was about to execute Kelly, the John snuck behind the Forerunner and stabbed him in the eye with a [[combat knife]]. Intending to correct his mistake of not having killed the Spartan when he had the chance, the Didact grabbed John by the head, lifted him off his feet, and squeezed, cracking his helmet.<ref name="HE9"/> However, the rest of Blue Team intervened, forcing the Didact to throw John aside.

The monitor revealed that he had teleported the Warrior-Servant into the Halo's [[Control Room (Installation 03)|control room]], as it is the most secure location on the installation. Although Static Carillon admitted that teleporting the Didact to the control room was a "severe tactical error", it reasoned that the Didact would have killed the Spartans otherwise and reached the control room anyway. After the monitor told the Spartans that the Didact's armor has the ability to attune itself to enemy weaponry, John grabbed the installation's activation index and formulated a new plan to defeat the Didact.

As John made his way to the control room, the rest of Blue Team returned to their Longsword. Meanwhile, in the control room, the Didact was confused that the monitor would be willing to aid the humans yet further his own plans. John entered the control room behind the Didact and wished to talk with the Didact rather than fight at the moment, much to the confusion of the Forerunner. John explained to him that while his many attempts to kill the Didact conventionally had failed he must now take a different approach. The Spartan inserted the index into [[the Core]] of the installation. John disabled Gamma Halo's safety protocols and Static Carillon ejected the structural plate housing the control room and sent it towards the planet. As the fragment impacted the Forge, presumably destroying the five Composers housed there, John was teleported to safety while the Didact was disintegrated by the overlapping pulses released by the Composers upon their destruction. Static Carillon teleported John and itself to Blue Team's Longsword shortly after.<ref name="HE10"/>
