Warning: Spoilers for Halo episode 1 ahead.
A teaser for Halo episode 2 shows Dr. Halsey and Admiral Hood convening about the runaway Master Chief. After discovering a strange object on the planet Madrigal and saving the lone survivor of a Covenant attack, episode 1 of the live-action Halo series on Paramount+ saw Master Chief resist his forced directive and flee Reach with the survivor in tow. John-117 disobeyed the order to institute the fatal Article 72 against Kwan Ha after the alien object stirred up his suppressed memories. Dr. Halsey, the chief architect of the Spartan program that created the Master Chief, was left scrambling to formulate a plan to bring them in.
Paramount Plus shares a new clip ahead of tomorrow's episode revealing Halsey's discussion with Admiral Hood about the object from Madrigal and what her intentions for the Master Chief are. She mentions that Chief's squadmates, Silver Team, are tasked with collecting him peacefully and then admits that she is ignorant of the nature of the alien item that aided the superhuman's escape. Halsey then assures Hood that she can not only trust John-117 but has a contingency plan with Admiral Parangosky lined up for him should he oppose the UNSC in the future. Check out the clip below:
