Heres what the ending ofHaloSeason 2, Episode 8 means and how its story sets up future seasons.
The Season 2 finale ofHalowas jam-packed with crazy moments and revelations for all its characters.
This leads to the entire UNSC ship being overrun, with nearly all its crew members getting infected.
That includes Halsey herself, whom Miranda puts into cryosleep in hopes of trying to save her.
Soren and Kwan go on a rescue mission to save Laera, Kessler, and James Ackerson.
Here, he is finally reintroduced to Makee in the flesh shortly before killing her Sangheili guard and partner.
Who Are The Flood?
The Flood are virulent parasitic organisms that consume sentient lifeforms to survive, grow, and thrive.
They are known for their overwhelming numbers and ability to expand at a terrifying rate.
It has been warned in theHalolore that"one single Flood spore can destroy a species."
The Flood are almost like zombies in how they spread their infection.
The Halo was built as a weapon to try and eradicate The Flood from the known galaxy.
When a Gravemind exists, the Flood becomes more than just a mindless rampaging threat.
Who Was Master Chief Talking to in the Finale?
Throughout the finale, snippets of John speaking to someone offscreen are shown.
It feels like a debrief of sorts, but it’s unclear where Master Chief is giving it.
At the end of Episode 8, that detail is finally revealed: hes talking to 343 Guilty Spark.
He was built by the Forerunners and tasked with maintaining his station after their demise.
Guilty Spark has been alone in Installation 04 for nearly 100,000 years.
In the games, the little monitor robot becomes an antagonistic figure to Master Chief.
Whats to Come in Halo Season 3?
The next batch of episodes could easily directly adapt the story of the firstHalogamewith some notable quirks.
For one, a good majority of the first game was basically sped through in the Season 2 finale.
This includes the whole element of crash landing onto the Halo and fighting the Covenant while there.
This would focus on Master Chief exploring the inner facilities of the Halo and eventually working to destroy it.
Though, its worth noting that there are still plenty of original narrative elements in play.
For example, Master Chief was alone when exploring Installation 4 in the game.
As of writing, a third season ofHalohas not yet been greenlit.
Halois now streaming onParamount+.
