Poor Communication Kills |
| | Avalanche The Sidewinder Saga (Web Video) / int_1c445e86 |
comment |
Poor Communication Kills: The reds put together a funeral involving Jerry and the Colonel's remains being put into a crate and catapulted off a cliff. Except Peterson, who was put in charge of gathering up the bodies and finding the crate, only did the latter job and got Jones to do the former. Jones however claims that all Peterson told him was to move the crate to the edge of the cliff and never said whether or not the bodies were inside, making Jones assume that they were. He then realizes at this moment that this means they just launched the crate with the original contents still in it, which was six months' worth of rations. Stevens is justifiably enraged at both of them for their stupidity. |

Viking Funeral: The reds give Jerry and the Colonel one involving putting their bodies into an empty crate and launching it off a cliff. Things don’t go as planned due to lack of communication between Peterson and Jones, resulting in them accidentally destroying six months' worth of rations (the crate's original contents) instead. |

He Knows Too Much |
| | Avalanche The Sidewinder Saga (Web Video) / int_65acf9db |
comment |
He Knows Too Much: Dr. Lady actively tries to avoid this trope, such as preferring not to get too involved in the situation with the simulation troopers at Valhalla and the mystery of the crashed ship there that was being piloted by freelancers. Unfortunately for her, it happens anyway when she gets mixed up with the reds and blues on Sidewinder and they stumble upon top-secret tech belonging to Project Freelancer. After hearing that the reds discovered a Project Freelancer base hidden in the cliffside with the metal wall built into it, Nic sends Agent California to wipe them and the blues out. Ford later confides in Benny and Dr. Lady that he actually suspected the place to have ties to the Freelancers ever since his superior Sergeant Perry told him to never go near it right before his disappearance a year prior, implying that he also found about it and was killed. This prompted Ford to keep quiet and remain ignorant lest he end up like him. Subverted when California turns out to be a mole-turned deserter working for the UNSC and is willing to get the sim troopers to safety in exchange for all the information they have. Double-Subverted when Nic eventually sends Agent Massachusetts to kill her alongside them and Rocketeer to keep everything covered up. |

Rocketeer is a member of the Insurrection, who has traveled to Sidewinder to obtain the secret tech and was the one who actually killed Jerry and the Colonel. |

Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: Benny is not what you would call the best of shots. Ford averts this, managing to kill Jerry and the Colonel with a rocket launcher from a distance despite supposedly missing the first time. Nope, he actually did miss them and only fired once. The second shot was fired accidentally by Rocketeer. |
