| “ | Let's recap—I was betrayed and killed, shot into space, captured by the zerg, resurrected and infested, cured, given to Moebius to research the protoss cure, and was instead experimented on as the cure slowly failed. Everyone up to speed? Good. | „ |

| “ | Gerard... old friend. You do indeed have a traitor in your midst, but it's not me. Duran. He has been playing us both from the start. He convinced you to destroy the Psi Disrupter, even though it was our best chance at defeating the Zerg... I came here to activate the one hope we have of defeating them, and you killed me for it. Duran is your enemy Gerard. I suspect that he may even be infested as well. Use the Disrupter, Gerard. Finish our operation. Let my death have at least some meaning. | „ |
