When the squad was pinned down by a Jackal sniper, Jones, as the squad's own sniper, neutralized the Jackal with his "welcome-to-Earth gift basket", causing the majority of the other Covenant to flee the area. A camouflaged Elite then snuck up on the squad and took Jones hostage with an Energy Sword. One of his squad-mates, wielding an overcharged plasma pistol taken dropped by a Grunt, killed the alien, along with Stacker using his Battle Rifle, and freed him.
