==Summary==
[[Fireteam Crimson]] is deployed to the "[[Quarry]]," where they believe the Covenant may have taken missing Spartan [[Gabriel Thorne]]. Upon arrival the team faces heavy resistance. The team searches two locations in the Quarry, but Thorne isn't there. After fending off a large wave of Hunters and Wraiths, Fireteam Crimson waits for evac at their LZ. As ''[[Pelican 653]]'' draws close it is suddenly hit and destroyed by a Covenant [[orbital insertion pod]]. Crimson and their handlers realize too late that they have stumbled into a trap when they are suddenly swarmed by [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]], [[Type-44 Phantom|Phantoms]] and a {{Class|CRS|light cruiser}}.

==Transcript==
All dialogue is spoken through the COM. 

'''{Cutscene}'''

''A Pelican swoops into the Quarry.''

*'''[[Jared Miller|Miller]]''': "Roland, any more info on [[Gabriel Thorne|Thorne's]] whereabouts?"

*'''[[Roland]]''': "The Elites carried him out of surveillance range. Can't do much more than give you a general direction right now."

''The Pelican settles into an LZ.''

*'''Miller''': "Keep looking. And try to get Commander Palmer on the line. She needs to know what's happening. Crimson, this is straight search-and-rescue. Get in there, and see what you can find."

'''{Gameplay}'''

*'''Roland''': "I'm showing two likely locations where Spartan Thorne might have been taken." 

*'''Miller''': "Marking a waypoint."

''Crimson approaches the first waypoint.''

*'''Roland''': "Sniper!"

*'''Miller''': "Light him up, Roland!"

''A neutralize marker appears on the sniper.''

''Crimson reaches the first waypoint.''

*'''Miller''': "I'm not seeing Thorne anywhere, Roland."

*'''Roland''': "Agreed."

''Crimson kills most of the [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] in the area.''

*'''Miller''': "Just a few stragglers, Crimson."

*'''Miller''':  "Oh boy... Crimson, Phantom inbound."

''Numerous [[Type-44 Phantom|Phantoms]] land and deposit reinforcements. Crimson kills most of them.''

*'''Miller''': "Still have a few Covies to clear out, Crimson.

*'''Miller''': "Power source nearby. Might be worth getting a look at it?"

''A waypoint appears at the far end of the Quarry.''

*'''Roland''': "There is a higher than average number of enemy forces in this area."

*'''Miller''': "Might mean there's something worth guarding."

*'''Roland''': "Like a Spartan."

*'''Miller''': "Yup."

*'''Miller''': "Eyes open, Crimson. More Covies in your area."

''Crimson reaches the waypoint.''

*'''Roland''': "Lot of UNSC gear here."

*'''Miller''': "Grrr... but where's Thorne?"

*'''Roland''': "I've confirmed that Spartan Thorne isn't here."

*'''Miller''': "Then where the hell is he, Roland?"

*'''Roland''': "I've got no idea."

*'''Miller''': "All right. Dalton, I need a ride home for Crimson."

*'''[[Robert Dalton|Dalton]]''': "Gonna be a few on that request."

*'''Miller''': "Drop pods incoming!"

''Crimson fights off the first wave.''

*'''Miller''': "Watch out! Hostiles inbound!"

''Crimson whittles down the second wave.''

*'''Miller''': "Drop pods coming down near your position, Crimson!"

''Yet another wave.''

*'''Miller''': "Uh oh. Phantom inbound!"

''Spartan kills most of the wave.''

*'''Miller''': "Just a few Covies left. I'll get markers on them."

''Crimson kills them all.''

*'''Miller''': "Don't relax yet, you've got more hostiles headed your way."

*'''Miller''': "If we have to wait on a ride, how about about some guns?"

*'''Dalton''': "That, I can do."

''Numerous ordnance pods drop from the sky, each containing a [[M6 Spartan Laser|Spartan Laser]]. Another wave of Phantoms deploys a wave of Hunters.''

----

''If the player has activated the RvB Easter egg.''

*'''Sarge''': "I know you boys wanted a life, but all I've got are these guns. I suppose you COULD assemble some sort of primitive, gun-like vehicle out of the parts. But who knows what the insurance rates would be on that bad boy..."

*'''Sarge''': "Dammit, Grif, you dropped our cargo! Now how are we supposed to play [[Grifball]]!"

*'''Grif''': "I think the bigger question here is why a military vehicle was sent into battle with sports equipment."

''Instead of Spartan Lasers, the ammo drops are [[Type-2 gravity hammer|Gravity Hammers]]. Rather than "Ammo" the markers read "Sports Equipment".''

----

''Crimson kills most of the Hunters.''

*'''Miller''': "Area's not secure yet. Marking your last few targets."

''Crimson clears the area.''

*'''Dalton''': "Finally got your bird, Miller. Where ya want it?"

''A waypoint appears at the top of the butte.''

*'''Miller''': "Put her down right here. Should be safe."

''Crimson reaches the waypoint.''

*'''Pilot''': "This is Pelican Six Five Three. I have visual on Fireteam Crimson. Touching down at LZ."

''[[Pelican 653|A Pelican]] flies low across the Quarry. As it approaches the butte it is suddenly destroyed when a falling [[Orbital insertion pod|Covenant drop pod]] slams into it from above.''

*'''Miller''': "Oh God! What was that?!"

'''{Cutscene}'''

''Multiple Phantoms and Banshees converge on Crimson.''

*'''Roland''': "Spartan Miller! This is pretty bad! Incoming enemy forces! Numerous."

*'''Miller''': "Define numerous, Roland."

*'''Roland''': "A lot! Maybe all of them?"

*'''Miller''': "Ohhh boy. Crimson, brace yourselves. This is gonna get ugly."

''Multiple Banshees swoop over the butte as at least five Phantoms and a {{Class|CRS|light cruiser}} close in.''

'''EPISODE COMPLETE'''

''Level ends.''

==Trivia==
The fifth [[Red vs. Blue]] [[Roses vs Violets|Easter egg]] is found on this level. It is the only Easter egg to affect gameplay, as the ammo drops will be Gravity Hammers (Grifball equipment) rather than Spartan Lasers.
