Discussing the aftermath, Lasky told Palmer not to be angry at Ray for her actions due to the circumstances. He also told Palmer that his debriefing with Osman went surprising well despite the covert operation turning into a battle. Palmer asked if he learned anything about the captured Elite, but Lasky explained he was told to drop the subject. Lasky then told Palmer that he saw a memo sent by an ONI analyst to [[HIGHCOM]] concerning a growing number of Kig-Yar pirates setting up bases at trade routes and the possible outcomes for ignoring the threat. Lasky speculated that since the UNSC ignored ONI's demands for actions against the pirates, ONI staged the bioweapons accident in order to lure the Spartans to the planet, thereby forcing ''Infinity'' into a situation in which they would have to destroy the pirate base. He wondered which was worse: that ONI played them or that they fell for the staged act, arguably ONI for being more deceitful whils the Navy were doing their job. Lasky then asked Palmer not to let him forget about what they learned that day.<ref name="HE12"/>

*For real-life brownie points, this battle serves as a clever analogy to the pretext of the Iraq War in which America and England lied about Saddam Hussein having weapons of mass destruction and they invaded for oil instead and it turns out their weren't any such weapons full stop
