Hal would want to keep Ham Boy on the ship given the sheer numbers of fleshies that have been exterminated on his orders even if that was not Ham Boy's intention as well as keeping Fooker on the ship to increase the crew's suffering.
There is something Tessa and Hal must do, the rest of the crew aren't in on it. Something involving a city in the North American Sector. (Hint, hint, ends in ana, involves something ending in Con)

Sadly for Davy-boy, the near-passage of the Gargoyle would result in the Covenant being wiped out by its drive wake. True, the abominations were eliminated, but so were hundreds of innocent colonists in stasis. And the Gargoyle SHOULD have been able to detect a lumbering colony-ship, so, another black mark against the Pathfinders. asleep, as it were, at the wheel.

Sadly, in an effort to use available parts, one of the technicians replaced a status light on the Gargoyle's bridge with a salvaged neuralizer incorrectly labeled as 'miscellaneous spare electronic parts".
