Knock Out
Cerberus was making off with the data. It was a race against to stop the culprit – Dr. Eva Coré. Shepard was in hot pursuit of her with Liara and Kaidan following her swiftly. If she got away, they would have nothing.
Luckily, James was able to pick up on Shepard's distress and crashed their shuttle into Cerberus' shuttle. It wasn't how Shepard would have done it, but it was the only option they had to stop Cerberus. Kaidan helped Liara to her feet while Shepard hailed the Normandy for pick up.
Shepard was sure the crash killed Dr. Eva. But she wasn't. In the end she turned out to be a robot. She emerged from the shuttle and didn't seem happy. Kaidan immediately starting shooting but was overpowered by her and was brutally injured. Shepard deactivated her before she hurt anyone else.
With the data, they had a chance, but now Kaidan was in a fight for his life. He needed treatment soon.
