Hacet made a speech, made suicide switches available for pilots (and some got used too), and organized a grand battle. While the battle was a loss, he made his real goal of causing significant losses of troops on the human side and getting some info.
He also made plans to insert some prisoners to feed the humans false information, curried favor with a new mechanic (Chloe), got chastised by the Princess for his suicide switches, chased a turncoat (Prompto) and spoke with a new pilot (Shiro) in a kind of "can I use you as a spy?" way. Which nicely dovetails into a backup plan of "make him the one who orchestrates the peace", if, you know, that looks like the option with more prestige attached.
For Week 3: He's putting into motion several different plans of course he's the Xanatos Gambit guy: PLAN ONE: Hacet is ordering the spies to plant their Evidence of Suspicious Behavior/expose already planted stuff. It's not necessarily 'working with the aliens!' evidence (although some of it probably is), but it is stuff that will hopefully make people suspicious of each other and start infighting.
PLAN TWO: Moving most of the fleet to somewhere hidden. Publicly, this is to give the fleet a chance to regroup and recover, and to lull the humans into thinking they won by a far greater magnitude than they did. Privately this is to incite attack, should the false information fed by his prisoner-spies be believed.
PLAN THREE (yes this is a plan, not just him being a decent guy): make himself sympathetic to the fleet. He is going to attend every funeral service, personally visit the squads of the dead, and perform a Xiul vigil/ritual (it may or may not involve ritual substitution of a part of himself for the lost body of the dead) for each of the suicides.
PLAN FOUR: spearheading rescue operation planning! Part of this plan is to tell his spies to find all the captives (and he hopes, the consort) and get that information back. The publicly known part is asking for Brave Volunteers to risk infection to sneak in and get them out. (If he's organizing an attack in week four it's probably to cover for this operation... publicly. Privately it might be for... other secret plans)
...and he may or may not end up with X-Pressure, but that's not in his plans at all.
