This scene honestly just shows how hurt John is after Cortana. Never again is he gonna turn a blind eye when something starts to go wrong with his AI companion. Last time he did that, it almost destroyed life as they know it.

For those who don´t know Red Flag It was the operation that was supposed to end the war with the Covenant but due to the fall of Reach and the death of almost 70% of the Spatans-II, the operation was never carried out.
And Samuel-034 was the first Spartan to fall in combat and he was John's best friend so much that the Chief himself considered him a brother

[captainfordo]

He was scared she’d turn into cortana. SHE IS A COPY OF CORTANA. Chief didn’t want to risk another galaxy wide threat.

[BurninSnowMan]

The fact the the code is "034 Samuel" is an amazing detail. Cortana killed alot of Spartans. Lives wasted rather than spent, that was a hard lesson for Chief!

[captainkeyes]

My hat is off to the writers, this shows the chief did not want to delete the weapon at all greatly. For those who don’t know, Samual-034 was Chief’s best friend in the Spartan II program, during the Spartans first combat against the covenant, Chief, Sam, and Kelly boarded a covenant ship and rigged it to blow. Sam had gotten hit, and his suits seal was messed up so he couldn’t escape into space with the others. Someone also had to stay behind to make sure the sabotage they set would work. John was devastated but knew that to complete the mission, he had to sacrifice the life of his best friend. To make the deletion codes a reminder of this shows that chief still has that dedication to his duty, even when deep down he wishes he could be the one to sacrifice instead of his friends.

Weapon was right to be angry, John was right to be cautious, neither is wrong

The Weapon wanted to be deleted, it was John who denied her deletion and formed in her the desire to keep living, of course she would see this as a betrayal

John’s failure with Cortana resulted in so much death and destruction, of course he wouldn’t risk it again (anytime soon)

[sinatraswinery]

Good to know John still thinks of Samuel after all those years!

[kingortizjr.]

he trusted Cortana with his life... To this day he still broken by her betrayal... Can't blame the dude...

[milk]

Can someone make a meme when Chief says, "We do it together" then immediately cuts to him trying to delete her lol

[henryalberts]

Them playing the "We were supposed to protect each other... and we did" RIGHT before Chief attempts possibly the greatest betrayal of a friend in his life... god damn, that was an emotional gutpunch, and having Sam's number and name be the passcode made it hit even harder as a lore fan.

[Prince_Sharming]

Oh my god you can just hear the pain in his voice when he says "Samuel". What an incredible performance by Downes.

[SigTheSauceMan]

Man I JUST got to this part last night and DAMN it hit hard. Like... John is finally showing some humanity. Some heart. And the weight with which you can hear him speak the deletion passcodes... Especially when he gets to "Samuel."

Sam was my friend… he was my brother. Sam showed us that the covenant were not invincible, they could be beaten. But at a high cost…

[horrorpleb]

Many will think John is a dickhead in this moment but that is far from the truth.

John was right to try this, his experience with cortana is like PTSD to him, he was fearful that the weapon would end up being corrupted somehow by the harbinger and thus going rogue and causing universal destruction just like cortana.

Don't get me wrong, the weapon is innocent, if anyone is to blame its cortana, because of how she went rogue it meant that John was losing trust in A.I companions so even though the weapon was innocent it didn't matter to John, he just couldn't risk another A.I becoming a threat to the galaxy, especially an A.I that is a copy of cortana

If anything this scene is a lesson to both John and the player.
We were with cortana every step of the way through each halo game and throughout it she was our companion, our partner, our friend, cortana was the one we trusted the most and adapted to until we lost her in halo 4, thats when we broke.
Then halo 5 came and when we thought she was coming back she ended up becoming a monster and thus we lost trust in A.I companions (Not everyone will have lost trust but even so this still affects the player in many ways) after that.
This is literally the player and John.

[alexschwallz]

No, no, no. My boi chief knows the consequence of simping waifus.

[chrishawkins]

this is the first time we've got some of johns character in the games and I love it

[VortexTalon]

This right here is what it looks like to come out of a bad break up. Man is so scarred he wasn't even going to take the chance for even a moment. You can even tell when he starts talking about her breaking protocol. Any semblance of going down a similar path to Cortona and he's ready to do what he feels he should have done back then. The regret and guilt is just eating at him constantly.

[tig.v]

I see a lot of people talking about Samuel-034 but I think the Operation: Red Flag reference flew over a lot of people’s heads. Red Flag was an operation towards the beginning of the war with the intent of sending the majority of Spartan-IIs to assassinate the Covenant leader and end the war early, but the objective changed when the Covenant found Reach and began its campaign to destroy the planet. Props to the writers for both giving some tribute to Sam as well as Red Flag which is a big part of Halo’s lore.

[connorprice]

when she says "whats wrong with you" and the sass of "theres your grav lift" is just perfect i prefer her over the old cortana honestly

[thomasgomez]

Literally almost cried when I learned that Samuel was the password…. It really hit me different because a lot of people will say “Samuel’s death hit the master chief the hardest, and he then made a promise to never lose another soldier under his command, ” this is true and all but just think of the gravity of this whole thing. Samuel’s death was the moment John became the Master Chief, everything he did was in honor of Samuel’s sacrifice. It’s not just for Blue team but for humanity, it paved a road for chief to sacrifice himself in humanity’s dire needs in order to save every soul he can. This, in addition to Cortana being his closest friend next to Blue Team, it really hits you in the feels because when Chief actually shows an ounce humanity, it really becomes something special.
