Human Revolution
Zeke and his men stage a hostile takeover of a Sarif Industries plant in Milwaukee, possessing an abnormally strong knowledge of the building and its security systems. Adam Jensen is sent in by David Sarif to resolve the situation, though Sarif's priority is to secure the prototype Typhoon Explosive System augmentation. Jensen however manages to rescue the hostages on the manufacturing level, and later faces Sanders in the admin building. Zeke takes Josie Thorpe hostage, but Adam is able to convince him to let her go, and informs Sanders that the hacker in his group, who tried to steal the Typhoon data, was augmented, and allows Zeke to leave. Later on, he meets with Jensen in secret near Sarif HQ in Detroit, where he gives Jensen a pocket secretary with several access codes and other information, which proves useful in upcoming mission in Highland Park.
