Halsey: Captain, Cortana is not an asset for us anymore, I tried to warn you that she is dangerous. She has accessed the Forerunner’s Domain, a galaxy spanning network…
Roland: Cortana’s alive?
Halsey: …that allows her to control whatever devices caused this damage.
Roland: How is she?…
Lasky: The Master Chief believes she contacted him…
Halsey: What? No. John must not speak to her.
Lasky: …and he’s gone in search of her.
Halsey: You let him go?
Roland: How is that?…
Palmer: Chief does whatever he wants, nobody tells him what to do.
Lasky: Until 06:31 this morning, when he was declared absent without leave.
Roland: This isn’t about Master Chief…
Halsey: John is not equipped emotionally to deal with her as a threat…
Roland: HEY!!! Is anyone going to answer me?
Lasky: Your out of line Roland.
Roland: Yes sir, but so is everyone else! You created Cortana, Doc, and now your throwing her out the airlock with these accusations.
Lasky: Roland!
Roland: Respectfully sir, Why is Cortana the problem? You think she tricked the Master Chief into abandoning his post? Because she refused to die when she was supposed to?
