Just curious; did it seem to anybody else that 343 Guilty Spark was talking to somebody else at the end of The Maw? Here's what I mean:

Right off, why would he ask you if you need medical attention? He knows that the sentinels are trying not only to stop the Flood, but you as well.

My best guess is that 343 GS found another person to be his pawn and activate Halo for him. Now, I know that we all disabled the three pulse generators in Two Betrayals, but anybody remember the Cortana letters?

There was a fourth. You couldn't have known. And I haven't forgotten.

At first, I thought Cortana was talking about Halo itself (Installation 004), but then I looked more carefully. There was a fourth. A fourth pulse generator, mayhap?

But we know that Halo never fired, because we never left Halo until it was destroyed. Or did we? I remember that after the third generator, we were teleported to the T&R to bring back the captain.

Cortana Letters. Hmmm... Might be worth a look after all this time. ;-)
