NOTHING FOLLOWS

Fade to Covenant ships glassing a planet.

Narrator: You joined the military to fight off the alien scourge! You were told that joining the military would help keep your fellow man safe.

Fade to a crowd of helmeted civilians.

Narrator: But what you weren't told is that your fellow man could very well be our real enemy. And they're already here!

Narrator: Just ask this fine soldier here. What's your name and rank, soldier?

Narrator: Uh... I'm sorry?
