Neutralize the Terrorist Leader

M2 - Neutralize the Terrorist Leader is a mission in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Confront Zeke Sanders
Go through the door and watch the cutscene. You'll have a conversation with Zeke Sanders. As it turns out, he was tricked into this operation and had no idea the hacker in his group was augmented. To complete this mission you can fight him or talk him into leaving.

The consequence of letting him leave is that he will appear later and give you passwords for the security computers in the FEMA base.

Rescue Josie Thorpe
There are a couple of methods to ensure Josie Thorpe remains alive while dealing with Sanders.


 * The lethal method is to just shoot him as quickly as possible with any weapon before he pulls the trigger on Thorpe.


 * Non-lethal methods include a headshot with the tranquilizer rifle, the stun gun, or shooting him in a non-critical part of the body with any weapon to interrupt his execution before using takedown.


 * The dialogue method is to persuade him to leave without shooting Thorpe. The general dialogue path is as follows: (1) Try to free Josie (2) Reason (3) Empathize (4) Reason.
