After preventing the Promethean forces from entering the portal, Static Carillon followed Blue Team to Installation 03 where he found that the Didact was already preparing to finish off the Spartans. The monitor disabled the Didact by shooting him in the back with his energy beam and used an emergency [[teleportation]] measure to transport the Promethean commander into the [[Control Room (Installation 03)|Halo's control room]]; according to the monitor, this was the only option to prevent the Didact from slaughtering the Spartans. After he and Blue Team recovered and discovered the Halo's [[Activation Index]] that the Didact had discarded when the monitor ambushed him, John-117 suggested that they fire the Halo to destroy the Didact. However, Static Carillon reminded him of the galactic-scale damage the pulse would cause, instead suggesting that the Master Chief use the Index to disable a set of safeties and thus allowing the monitor to scuttle the segment of the ring housing the control room and crash it into the Composer's Forge.<ref name="HE10">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 10|Issue #10]]''</ref>

The monitor teleported John into the control room and detached the section of the Halo immediately after the Master Chief had deactivated the safeties. Static Carillon had to take some time to stabilize the ring in order to prevent it from breaking apart due to the missing segment; however, he managed to teleport John out of the control room in time before the ensuing blast overwhelmed the control center and seemingly cremated the Ur-Didact. The monitor and John materialized aboard Blue Team's [[Longsword]] fighter in orbit over the Composer's Forge. Static Carillon thanked the [[Reclaimer]] for giving him a newfound purpose after millennia of overseeing a dead installation. He decided to take Gamma Halo for safekeeping and repairs in a location he did not disclose to the Spartans.<ref name="HE10"/>
