      The scripted instance is during chapter 5 I think. They try to bait you into two trip wire mines but I've heard the "cease fire target is friendly" line during chapter 8 just before the second antlion fight.

    This is evil on at least two levels. On the one hand if they succeed and manage to trick Alyx into thinking they're friendly she'll drop her guard and they can kill her. Then on the other hand if she just straight up doesn't believe another combine soldier anytime they claim to be friendly and just straight up shoots them on site whenever they try this she runs the risk of accidentally killing someone like Barney working with her from within the combine. Thus removing any defectors they might have. Straight up evil but brilliant when you really think about it
