After Rebecca finally revealed the Flood threat, Foucault became shaky in his resolve, unsure about what actions he should take. He finally told [[Zhao Heng Lopez|Lopez]] (who was on the ''Mona Lisa'') that the ship had to be destroyed, and the crew on the Mona Lisa had 8-10 minutes to evacuate. | ||
