| '''''A [[SPARTAN Program|SPARTAN]] WILL RISE''''' | | '''[[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]]''': "We knew [[Fall of Reach|this day]] would come. They have found our fortress among the stars. The [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] are on [[Reach]]." |
|
| |
|
| ''The screen fades to black.'' | | '''Dr. Halsey''': "They will [[Glassing|burn]] this planet, kill millions, and when Reach falls - and fall it will - there will be nothing left to stand between them and [[Earth]]." |
|
| |
|
| *'''Dr. Catherine Halsey''': "We knew [[Fall of Reach|this day]] would come.
| | '''Dr. Halsey''': "Yet, even in our darkest hour, hope remains. Now, who will protect it? Show me Noble Team." |

| |
|
| ''View opens to show a towering, twin-peaked mountain on the surface of Reach. The wreckage of a [[UNSC frigate|UNSC Frigate]] can be seen atop a hill to the right, and fires rage on the ground, making the air thick with smoke.'' | | '''Dr. Halsey''': "Carter, Noble One. Born leader. He turned Noble into more than just a collection of SPARTANs." |
|
| |
|
| ''Another shot shows an aerial battle raging over a glassed landscape.'' | | '''[[Carter-A259|Carter]]''': "Set up a perimeter." |
|
| |
|
| *'''Dr. Halsey''': They have found our fortress among the stars. The [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] are on [[Reach]]."
| | '''Dr. Halsey''': "They will need him now more than ever." |
|
| |
|
| ''A nighttime view of the city of [[New Alexandria (location)|New Alexandria]] is shown. Many of the skyscrapers and the bridges connecting them are severely damaged, with fires burning in some of them.'' | | '''Dr. Halsey''': "Kat, Noble Two. She ''is'' brilliant." |
|
| |
|
| ''A wide-open daytime view of New Alexandria is shown. [[Ceudar-pattern heavy corvette|Covenant corvette]]s loom over the embattled cityscape, and in the foreground, a human ship is shot down by a [[Plasma turret|Plasma Torpedo]].'' | | '''[[Catherine-B320|Kat]]''': "I'll take that. Not your domain." |
|
| |
|
| ''Another shot of the night-time city is shown. A [[UH-144 Falcon]] takes off from a burning building, and one of the damaged skyscrapers collapses in the background.'' | | '''Dr. Halsey''': "There are no technical hurdles she can't overcome. But her curiosity borders on insubordination." |

|
| |
|
| ''Noble Team is shown, standing near a red signal flare. A Falcon hovers over them, and [[Jorge-052]] picks up his heavy machine gun from the ground.'' | | '''Dr. Halsey''': "On this mission, distance may be a luxury he can't afford." |
|
| |
|
| *'''Dr. Halsey''': "Yet, even in our darkest hour, hope remains. Now, who will protect it? Show me Noble Team."
| | '''Dr. Halsey''': "Emile, Noble Four. Is he bold enough? Without question. But we need courage and patience in equal measure." |

| |
|
| ''[[Auntie Dot]]'s avatar swipes across the screen.'' | | '''[[Emile-A239|Emile]]''': "Who's next?" |
|
| |
|

|
| |
|
| *'''Dr. Halsey''': "Carter, Noble One. Born leader. He turned Noble into more than just a collection of SPARTANs."

|
| ''After being deployed to the ground by two Falcons, Carter gives a hand signal for the team.'' | | '''Dr. Halsey''': "Jorge, Noble Five. It's good to see him home again. But the [[Fall of Reach]] will weigh heavily upon him, and this mission will test every last ounce of his strength." |
|
| |
|

|
| |
|
| ''Cuts to Carter briefing the team in a small cavern.'' | | '''Dr. Halsey''': "Curious. Hyper-lethal. There's only [[John-117|one other SPARTAN]] with that rating." |
|
| |
|
| *'''Dr. Halsey''': "They will need him now more than ever."

| | ==Unseen A.I.== |
| | In the ViDoc, Dr. Halsey is most likely talking to [[Auntie Dot]], who is seemingly choosing to integrate with the protagonist, Noble 6. There are several reinforcing facts: Auntie Dot's symbol is repeatedly seen during the video, she is the only AI known to appear in the ''Halo: Reach'' campaign, and, at 1:07, it appears that Noble 6 is handing Kat an AI chip. This mirrors [[Cortana]]'s integration with [[John-117]]. |
