The rest of you... You're due for an education." - Palmer briefing SPARTAN-IV soldiers about their deployment to Requiem.
• ""The eggheads upstairs wants to set up research bases. But before they can do that, we need to fend off some Covenant squatters. The Covies...they believe this is the home of one of their gods! Way I see it, if those freaks wanna meet God, it's our duty to help them along!" - Commander Palmer discussing the Covenant presence on Requiem.

Land Grab

• "Spartan Sarah Palmer, Infinity Commander to all Navy, Army, and Marine forces, you can relax. The Spartans are here." - As the Pelicans carrying Fireteam Crimson arrive.
• "Crimson, Commander Palmer. Your mission's not just about wreaking havoc, fun though that may be. Miller, light up the targets for Crimson."
• "Those are power cores, intended for short-range wireless distribution. Destroy them or the Covies will build bases, and we'll have a hell of a time rooting them out."
• "I don't need a second-by-second, Miller. Tell me once the other three are down." - After Jared Miller tells her Crimson has destroyed the first power core.

Sniper Alley

• "Crimson, I'm moving you up to something a little tougher today..." - As Crimson is flown to Sniper Alley.

• "Hostiles inbound, Crimson. Give them a proper welcome, yeah?"
• "Dalton, send Crimson supplies."

The Challenge

• "Spartans, you're being deployed to a pair of identical structures located north of primary operations. Here's a challenge for you: who can clear their base of Prometheans first?" - Palmer deploys Fireteams Crimson and Majestic.

• "Crimson, heads up! Crawlers!"
• "Okay, Crimson. This was only ever recon. I'm pulling you out until Science Team can review that data. Miller, mark the extraction point."

• "Find them a way out, Miller!" - After Miller tells her the building's layout has shifted.

• "Pop those flyers quick, or they'll resurrect their buddies!" - When Watchers arrive.
• "Everything's baby-proofed? Good stuff. Dalton. I need a ride for Crimson at their new extraction location."
• "Nice work, Crimson. Miller, get that data over to Science Team and see what they can get from it. It better be something worthwhile."

Core

• "Okay, Crimson. The data you pulled out of the jungle ties into some earlier info on Covenant archaeological teams. The Covies have found a needle in the Requiem haystack, and you're going to stop them from retrieving it." - As Crimson is brought to The Cauldron.

• "Tom!" - When Glassman starts pulling Lasky into the artifact, trying to save himself.

Clean Up

• "Crimson, your job today is to dig out some nasty Covenant squatters. They've parked themselves in a hole with anti-air guns and are proving themselves to be quite a pain in the UNSC's ass. Hit 'em fast, hit 'em hard, don't leave anyone standing." - As Crimson is flown to The Gate.
