The "quarantine checkpoint" is a room in Elun. It appears in Metroid Dread.
Description[]
This is the main security checkpoint for Elun, located at its entrance. Its purpose is to prevent any unauthorized visitors from accessing the quarantine zone, or X Parasites from escaping it. When Samus Aran enters Elun, she runs across the bridge preceding it before stopping at a Blast Door in her way. It slowly opens and she enters this room, cautious. After the blast door closes behind Samus, a group of nine spherical robots with red eyes suddenly activate around her. Samus initially assumes them to be hostile and takes aim, waiting for them to make a move. Instead of attacking, the machines scan her, a process which takes about seven seconds before they deactivate. They presumably conclude she is not a threat, or detect either no trace of X in her system or the Chozo DNA she carries. A feminine AI (voiced by Holly Renaut[1]) says the following in Chozo:
| “ | Scan complete. | „ |
—AI | ||
The blast door behind Samus remains closed, forcing her to proceed onward into the facility. With the security scan finished, the lights in the room come on, showing the eye-like machines are hanging from the ceiling. In the background of the room are a pair of black Chozo Soldier statues.
As Samus is leaving Elun, hundreds of X Parasites fly past Samus and escape into the planet.
