Schein subsequently attempts to destroy the station with explosives, though Musa-096 and Jun-A266 are able to stop him; however, Captain O'Day is killed in the process, while Jun and Schein are propelled into space through a breached viewport. Jun is rescued on time by Lucy-B091 and Tom-B292 while Schein is left to die in the vacuum of space, with the three Spartan-IIIs receiving medical treatment for several days for their vacuum exposure.[2]
