Who Was The Mole In The CIA? | Call of Duty: Black Ops 2

Yep, during the start of Operation False Prophet, while McKnight discusses the true plan. Mason asks McKnight if Hudson didn't already tell him the objectives. However, McKnight says Hudson didn't.

[@LuminousJay94]

​@resterive Correct McKnight tells Mason he'll be providing cover from building 12, Mason replies 'Didn't Hudson Nix that plan?' As in cancel it (Nix being an american slang phrase which comes from the German 'Nichts' or 'Nothing') McKnight responds 'If he did, he didn't tell me' Hudson kept everyone out of the loop, I felt sorry for his kids but as far as Hudson goes he was a spook who crossed the line and got what he deserved

Actually the whole games Mason was part of the CIA. In his files, he used to be a Marine Captain. But since the first mission, Op 40, he was a CIA Agent. Even in Vietnam, he was attached to MAC-V-SOG. These guys were a group of SF from the whole U.S military (Navy, Marines, Army, Airforce) and CIA. So Mason was a CIA Paramilitary Operations Officer since 1958. You never see him as a Marine the whole game. So on paper he's not even a "Military Soldier" at all since the CIA is not part of the military, hence PARAmilitary

1. Hudson tried to stop Woods from interrogating Kravchenko because Woods was a lunatic with an insane amount of PTSD relating to Menendez. 2. Kravchenko had no reason to tell the truth, and Hudson had no reason to believe he was telling the truth. 3. Hes only standing there because you aren't supposed to see him once Mason gets knocked to the ground. Treyarch had no reason to animate something that players wouldn't see. 4. It would more than likely be Raul Menendez. If he wasn't in the body bag then non-corrupt PDF would've captured him. Josefina was also way closer to the grenade, and since theres a massive hole in his house, I doubt there would be a lot of her left to carry in a body bag. 5.Hudson didn't "Lie" to Woods and Mason that Menendez was dead. He 100% thought Menendez was dead at that point due to the massive hole in Menendez's compound. The only people who would've known Menendez was still alive would-be Noriega or other affiants to Menendez. 6.

[@NeoDaxtoChief17]

Something to consider is that it doesn't make sense for Menendez to restrain and later kill Hudson if he had been supporting him as the mole up to that point. Menendez is cunning and patient enough not to let his anger compromise his strategy for revenge, and a CIA mole is a huge asset that he has no reason to kill off at that point since he wanted to play the long game to make them suffer (to break Woods physically by disabling him, and mentally by making him kill Mason then one day corrupting David). I also would have figured that Hudson, if he was the mole, would have known that Menendez never planned to kill David as he was part of the plan to make them suffer. Unless the case is that Hudson refused to go along with punishing Mason and Woods (which doesn't make sense if he's been betraying them for years), or Menendez saw it as punishment for not stopping Woods from killing Josefina. If the latter is the case, there's no explanation as to why he didn't inform Menendez of the mission that kills Josefina prior to it occurring? Idk, I think Hudson being the mole has too many things that don't line up. I definitely think we'll find out who the real mole is in the next game, but something's gonna happen that causes Hudson to forever be labeled as the traitor in history (implied by how much Woods still despises him)

[@inductivegrunt94]

Hudson has always been shifty and distant to both Woods and Mason, but I don't think he's the mole. McKnight went dark on Mason and Woods before they got to Noriega and never contacted anyone. If Hudson isn't the mole, McKnight could have captured him for Menendez and that's why Menendez has Hudson during Suffer With Me. Adler? I don't really trust at all, so either way, whether or not he's the mole, wouldn't surprise me. Not sure if there's any evidence of him being a mole, he's just very distant from everyone else, focused on his own things. But that could be a cover for him being the mole. I'm not exactly sure who's the mole, but McKnight is who I'm guessing most likely is.

[@Necfreon]

There’s actual basis in the cod mobile comics he actually did betray everyone been a while sense I saw that so I don’t know the exact context but let’s just say it’s on the same cliff or at the very least it’s supposed to be like the cliff alder shoots bell or something like that

[@YoSauceBrazyy]

I feel like they would’ve stretched out McKnights character more or at least gave Easter eggs/references to him being a mole or shady person. I think his job in that mission was to support mason and woods for their original goal in capturing Noriega and once they did that that’s when he vanished. It’s the same thing how there wasn’t any other navy seal to help mason and woods during the part of the mission when they were captured.

[@genghiskhan2056]

I don't think it was McKnight either, you could briefly see him on top of a building providing cover fire for you, that leaves the window for him helping Menendez very short if not impossible, he also didn't know about Hudson changing plans. He probably just got assigned elsewhere and had problems with comms like everybody else.

[@minigunkiller1072]

Maybe Kravchenko was vaguely implying to Hudson that he was blindly supporting and helping Raul Menendez but with more of a twisted sentence to keep Mason, Woods, and Hudson guessing at Menendezs game plan. Hell maybe the mole could be Russel Adler supporting Menendez for what reason he might find fit and suitable for himself.

[@jelm8514]

Maybe. But i think its because someone took advantage of the re-brainwash on Adler. If you pay attention, after Mason plays the numbers on Adler, Hudson says: We got a job to do. Exact phrase Adler used on bell to maintain control over him. So probably someone took advantage of It and nade Adler do the dirty work for him while making Adler look like the mole

[@juzedhere1984]

i have a feeling that Hudson isn't the mole, i think that someone close to Hudson is the actual mole, Hudson and this "friend" both know that "friend" is the mole, not only that but "friend" is higher ranked than Hudson in the CIA and he also has some dirt on Hudson. Which means that Hudson is carrying all of the mole actions for this "friend", then after the mission in Panama where Hudson and Mason die, Adler gets wind of what happened and knows that they couldn't screw up that easily since they were very good at their jobs and since Adler gets the job done and can get any info at all costs, "friend" the higher CIA ranked person blames Adler for all the mole accusations and is forcing Adler into hiding. if i were to look for who this "friend of Hudson" is, i think that "friend"=Black from BOCW, he is close enough to the President and could be very close to Hudson since they look like they've worked together for many years or at least a lot of time, which means he has access to every information that it exists. it s all just a theory from the people that we already know, but it can also be someone that was never introduced to us before

People are going crazy saying it could be Adler Etc 😂 I mean to each their own but what some don't know or think about is that computer you can access at the game menu of BO1, I recently went through every email on the servers that are on that computer and you find some crazy s**t. Basically there were people at the C.I.A that didn't want Mason working there (Weaver and some others) but Dragovich having brainwashed Mason did want him there obviosuly to kill J.F.K. There are also recordings you can listen to of Dragovich referring to 'Lancer' (JFKS' codename) as too young for office and too idealistic for some unknown plan. Now I won't go into every email, but long story short Mason was not properly cleared for duty, a C.I.A analyst, Ryan Jackson had emails to and from Richard Kain stating he was to clear Mason for duty no matter what and that this had come as a direct request from the president, which was true, however JFK asked for Mason personally because he was told Mason was 'the best we have, anywhere' There is also mail in Kains inbox where he is asked by his superior about unsanctioned operations being carried out and that they are to cease immediately. This Richard Kain was planning and running Black Operations without his superiors knowledge.

[@LuminousJay94]

What's also weird is that in the BO1 mission USDD, where you go and meet JFK at the Pentagon, when you reach the war room or situation room, Mason has a flash and sees a number sequence, then strangely McNamara leans in and says 'Not yet' after Hudson mentions the situation room is 'Overwhelming isn't it'. For me all this likely points to there being perhaps 1 mole in the C.I.A Richard Kain using his position and others ulterior motives to put Mason close to the president and kill him. If you can I advise trying to get on to that BO1 computer to draw your own conclusions but It certainly goes deeper than just the main operators in the series.

[@geteheh3h3636]

I think his existence is to just flesh out the universe, Woods' and Mason's relationship with other soldiers outside the main plot. It prevents the story from having too strict of a "every single scene has to progress the story" presentation, gives the storytelling more breathing room.

I don’t think the mole is McKnight or Hudson, we got so little of McKnight that it wouldn’t make sense for him, Hudson was protecting David so he technically ain’t a mole, I could maybe see Adler do a Shepherd and help both sides to make himself look like the hero, but I doubt it too

[@starset4life175]

I feel like I’m the only one who trusts Adler more than Hudson

[@seanbotti5385]

Jane Harrow was the mole

[@ryan_fsk]

True , how did hudson get caught,even if menendez killed david ,hudsonn should have jumped in the chair and try to break the wooden chair like jackie chan did

[@ArthurCallahanSolos]

Hudson didn't want David to die? He knew that Menendez would kill him if he disobeyed an order, and Mason would kill him if he learned that he got his son killed.

[@ariefmaulana4045]

Better To Wait BO6 For This All So We Can Now Who Is The Real Mole

[@kirby4083]

Honestly McKnight is a long stretch but Hudson is probably our best candidate. The BO2 campaign had a strong attitude towards Hudson being out of character . Maybe he was the Mole but when Raul’s sister was killed he used Hudson to get to Mason and woods. We know for a fact that Hudson offered Mason the option to let David stay with his wife . Hudson knew if he didn’t cooperate this last time that it would’ve costed him his family’s life . Hudson knew he was dead anyway so gave up his life to save David.

[@Wallbangedbyme]

I never realsied hudson doesnt get choken out after woods exacutes kravchenko i dont believe mc knight or hudson are the mole

[@sonic984]

It was Adler or Bell

[@forxce1939]

Pretty sure its mcknight because he is in one mission in all of bo2 which they should have decided to cut the mission from the game if it wasnt important

[@LuminousJay94]

Is it just me that thinks it's Richard Kain, McNamara and the likes of those guys that are the mole/Moles? Kravchenko says 'He even has people in the C.I.A' he didn't necessarily mean there was just one mole embedded and I mean that computer you can access in the B01 game menu with everyones users and different servers, there are a ton of shady emails from Kain telling people to have Mason psychologically cleared for field duty despite being clearly unfit for it (Though he is still the right man for the job given his position) Ryan Jackson who was a C.I.A Analyst had mails with the doctor that was seeing Alex Mason, after Mason had sent her mail threatening possible suicide she stressed to Jackson how bad of an idea she really thought clearing Mason was, however she agreed and did so after being pushed down on from above. Ryan Jackson was also told by Richard Kain to not assist Gregori Weaver in the search for a long lost relative (I believe it was his sister) Weaver had mailed Ryan Jackson for assistance with tracking her down but when Jackson relayed this request to Richard Kain, Kain quite literally instructed Jackson to do whatever he could to shut Weaver up and leave it alone. There are also recordings from a meeting held at some point that Dragovich was attending, in the recording Dragovich refers to JFK by his code name 'Lancer' stating 'Lancer is too young' meaning he can pose a problem idealistically in the future. Basically after brainwashing Mason, Dragovich needed a way to get him close to JFK, and the mission USDD where we meet JFK in the Pentagon gave him just that, remember when Mason, Hudson and McNamara get to the situation room and Hudson says 'Overwhelming isn't it?' Mason has a flash and sees a number sequence at which point McNamara leans in and says 'Not yet' now I don't know about everyone else but that seems to me like McNamara is subliminally telling Mason to be patient, that he will be within reach of JFK soon, because McNamara surely can't be replying to Hudson when he says the overwhelming line as it makes no sense. Those mail and extras really blew my mind when I got through them all.

[@IsNowSpectating]

First thought was adler but tbh I don't think he would let someone like Menendez get one over him without sacrificing something to gain an advantage over him.

[@AdrielJabez]

Weaver is the mole in CIA.

[@TyJohnson1997]

Nahh that would be very interesting

[@reulink7118]

Weaver was in jail at this time.

[@british35]

Weaver himself was loyal to Hudson. He wouldn’t

[@justineallandevelos6491]

​@@british35 also the mere fact that he lost a eye while being interrogated in the Soyuz rocket site also adds to his loyalty

[@british35]

@@justineallandevelos6491Plus he fucked off to South Africa with Mason and Hudson. He never ratted on them there

[@RonaldAsks]

Now that I think about it.... The mole must have made their way to david before they could help menendez use Hudson. This means the mole had to have easy acces to david. Maybe it was Jenny? Hudson mentioned her, likely as a babysitter, when he said she'll look after david. It's likely that she could have been the CIA mole. But that's just a theory!

[@franciskalala3110]

Jenny is Hudson's wife

[@british35]

@@franciskalala3110Jenny wouldn’t

[@Trugoybwoi]

Nah it had to be a close friend of Hudson and Mason who knew about David Staying with Jenny Can’t be woods cause obv it can’t be Weaver he was in Jail not a lot of people mention him I don’t think it’s Harris (dude who “died” in BO1 during the mountain mission) cause CW Bowman’s son captures him and he tells his son that he’s a friend of his so it could also mean he’s a friend of Mason and Hudson

[@Trugoybwoi]

It has to be someone who’s a tech geek remember bo1 you can see the emails the guys send each other maybe one of them had to do with Mason and Hudson talk about Jenny watching David since she had “done it before” so maybe their msgs got skimmed and that’s how they found where he’s at

[@glooboi2140]

1000% Hudson in bo2 but including the new games it could also be McKnight or Adler

[@Trugoybwoi]

Can’t be Hudson he was only a “mole” against his will for that one mission in order to protect David

[@bluephoenix3865]

Well, we know now it wasn’t Adler so my guess it had been McKnight or will have to wait for the other black ops game to come out next year because the way I see it they might be making a prequel about what happened to Mason

[@syalla881]

Who was the mole ? Definitely General Shepherd. He's -. Sorry wrong game 😅🙏🏻🙈

[@russellnew8016]

I don't think Hudson is the mole because he did not betray on purpose. I don't know about McKnight but I think it's Adler.

[@jasonblundelldobebussing]

New character

[@CHAOS_INSURGENT_0420]

Also, if you play the mission suffer with me, Hudson’s response seems very generic every time you talk with him meaning you were never talking to Hudson. It was a pre-recorded audio of his voice, making basic responses. Hear the same responses earlier in the game

[@marcuscastro1727]

I hope we find out who the mole was in bo6

[@hayleywilliams8750]

I think hudson beacuse every step we're taking into betrayal Hudson leads us their e.g mason's "death" and when menendez captured us Hudson offers to do it although he's the only one with a family (mason was aking dead)

[@Tiffani-if9rq]

Hudson definitely isn’t the mole, Menendez literally killed him after he gave himself up to save woods AND david, he led mason out to die to protect his son. But i personally think that it wasn’t hudson’s call to make. Mason would have probably thought differently and try to come up with a plan to save his son or maybe even sacrifice his son to keep the mission going to stop Menendez. Hudson made a choice, not really the wrong choice, but also not a good one, it wasn’t his call to make.

[@Idk-wf2gu]

What if hudson was threatened by mole in cia after save woods from Mendez in angloa - just my theory

[@x0nix]

I doubt adler is the mole since hes gonna b main character of bo6 unless he only acts as a mole when brainwashing kicks in

[@Trugoybwoi]

Adler isn’t the main character it’s gonna be the “redcliff” or whatever the dudes name is

[@x0nix]

@@Trugoybwoi o I really thought it was him bc the trailer

Why is no one considering it could be someone related to Salazar?

It will be Russell Adler

He’d have killed Menendez himself to keep the info safe. Fat chance
