Mason got captured by bad guys, bad guys brainwash him with numbers that when he hears them it will make him go evil and kill Kennedy and help release nova 6 in muricah, reznov brainwash mason and makes him kill evil guys and stop corona virus... till 2020. The end.

[@ninosavukoski7342]

"This one goes out to you, Mortal 7. This mission revolves around our titular main character, Alex Mason, as he discovers exactly what the numbers that have been seemingly been broadcasting at random times across the span of his journey mean. The mission starts with Alex Mason in the interrogation chair, with the two unknown interrogators arguing about whether or not to enter a bunker, as the Nova 6 sleeper agents are about to go off, effectively killing everyone in the main cities in the United States, Washington DC included. One interrogator, saying he has "one more card up his sleeve" leaves the interrogation room, to which the other interrogator replies "You want to die here? Fine." As the interrogator leaves he reveals himself to be Hudson, Mason's Commanding Officer, with the other interrogator being Weaver, one of Mason's close friends. Hudson unstraps Mason from the interrogation chair, believing Mason is not the traitor he is claimed to be. Mason, in his newfound freedom, punches Hudson in the face, sending him towards the TV screen seen in the Main Menu, knocking him out. Mason then stands up, and leaves the interrogation room, heading into another room. He begins to hear the numbers again, while seeing flashbacks to his previous endeavors, finally, after entering a surgical room, he remembers a flashback to Vorkuta, understanding that Dragovich, Krevchenco, and Steiner had brainwashed him in an attempt to get him to kill John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the current US President. In this, Viktor Reznov had sabotaged Mason's brainwashing, which did not change Mason's directive, but added on to it, with new orders to kill Kennedy, Dragovich, Krevchenco, and Stiener. Mason, now understanding this, continues to walk around what appears to be the Pentagon, before seeing a room full of televisions, all of which have Reznovs face on them, Reznov begins to tell Mason that he needs to survive, that... "We are brothers, Mason. We... are the same." He then exits the room, and advances down a hallway, only to find himself staring at the Ascension Project's rocket, taking off, before entering a control room, before getting punched by Hudson, who had woke up and followed Mason. Hudson then points a pistol at Mason, giving him one last chance to listen to the numbers, telling him to..."Listen to them, hell, listen again!" Mason, after hearing Dragovich talk about how all further broadcasts be from the Resulka, a ship given to him by Fidel Castro, understands that the Resulka, which is in Cuba, is where the numbers are being broadcast from. Mason, out of his trance, tells Hudson what he just learned. Hudson throws on his shades with a guitar riff playing in the background fade to black Edited for accuracy. Thanks guys, and thanks to Mortal 7 for inspiring me to do this. " @Mortal7 this was made by Roman Giles, NOT ME!

Agree atrongly. I also miss the tone of games like this. Story-wise it's a perfect mystery thriller, while thematically it's dark and explores the horrors of war as well as the paranoia and fear of 60s/70s. I wish games today more often told stories as good as this one.

I love how the game drops subtle hints to this through the entire campaign. For example you don’t know that Hudson is one of the interrogators until this mission. But one of the first things he says to you during the interrogation is “give us what we want and we can guarantee your safety”. Hudson says this exact thing later on in the campaign when he and weaver interrogate the nova 6 scientist.

[@Mistashiba]

i love the details in dialogue as well. when you "rescue" the defector, who mason hallucinates as reznov, he introduces himself to woods and bowman, but they take no notice of him. during all the vietnam misions, whenever reznov is around woods and bowman, they never seem to acknowledge him, he often disappears and reappears only ever appears when mason is alone or pursuing kravchenko, dragovitch or steiner, just great writing overall.

Me too, and just the sadness in Alex's voice ties to the shock of Hudson telling him that Reznov died at Vorkuta and what he did to Alex's brainwashing when Dragovich programmed him to kill Kennedy, as well as how Hudson was when he said "That's why it worked!".

[@ItsSpeltChayce]

The story telling in this game is unmatched by any game. The whole idea of the CIA, Vietnam, the numbers stations, the numbers and the flashbacks, the brainwashing, a friend that only exists in your mind as a hallucination (reznov) is incredible. I remember having a vivid dream as a kid after playing this game all the way through, I tried to understand it so hard, the game and its plot took hold of me and became real. I kept hearing the numbers broadcasts exactly like in the game, I remember having the flashbacks in the same style just like this mission, I woke up in a sweat and ran to my parents room. Apparently I was talking nonsense about the game. They didn’t let me play for a while, it was like nothing I ever experienced before. It’s just so uncanny. But incredible at the same time just to think a game can have that effect on you.

Love how BO1 just casually implies that Mason was the 2nd assassin that killed JFK. He says “Oswald compromised” referring to Lee Harvey Oswald, the real world ‘assassin.’ He also says “proceed to target.” And at the end, it shows Mason present on the same day JFK was killed. The game never gives a definitive answer, but it’s so cool. I love storytelling on this level. It feels so plausible, even though it’s just a video game.
