''Fade in to outside [[Lockup|the Covenant-occupied Forerunner structure]] where Crimson and Icebreaker were held earlier. A pair of [[Unggoy]] are conversing on a landing platform. They do not notice the [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] approaching their position until it is too late.  The Pelican swoops down and shoots two of the three Unggoy guards. The third tries to flee but is also gunned down as well.''
