Having moved into the fortress, O’Malley, Doc, and Lopez repair the turret emplacements and meet The Red Zealot, who believes that he has found a holy temple. Exploiting the Red Zealot’s religious fervor, O’Malley deceives him into performing menial tasks for him. O’Malley then catches a glimpse of Tex, who is spying on him, but on subsequent glances, sees nothing. Elsewhere, Sarge, Grif, and Simmons discuss the results of Grif and Simmons’ failed reconnaissance, and, while attempting to push the Warthog out of a ditch, receive a transmission from Tex informing them of O’Malley’s location.
