Lt. Vasquez:
Roger that we're on our way!

Jackson brings Pelayo to the Sea Knight while Vasquez and the team provide cover fire to hold down the corners from more incoming enemy forces. He then sets her down. She groans in pain from her injured leg (in the Remastered version, he puts her down and Pelayo draws out her MP5 to fend off more insurgents). Jackson turns around to hold off hostiles with Crew Chief Lt. Volker as the team evacuates.

Command:
Outlaw this is command. We have a probable nuclear threat at the capital. Proceed to the minimum safe distance until the all clear has been given by the NEST team.

Lt. Vasquez:
Go! Go!

Outlaw Two-Five takes off.

Outlaw Two-Five:
Ladies and gentlemen this is your Captain speaking. We're in for some chop! Hang on! Jake gimme max power.

Command:
All U.S. forces, be advised, we have a confirmed nuclear threat in the city. NEST teams are on site and attempting to disarm. I repeat, we have a confirmed nu-

Suddenly, before the warning can be repeated, it is cut off by static as a nuclear explosion goes off in the distance. Crew Chief Lt. Volker and Sgt. Paul Jackson look away and shield their eyes with one arm not holding their weapon to avoid witnessing the brightness of the detonation. When they are able to look back, they stare in shock and disbelief at what has just happened. As the familiar mushroom cloud begins to rise into the air, the shock wave knocks down many helicopters and destroys everything in its path.

Lt. Vasquez:
Everyone, hang on!

The shock wave hits Outlaw 2-5, causing it to spin out of control. Volker is seen being pulled out of the chopper due to the G-forces caused by the spin. The helicopter crashes. Jackson's vision immediately blacks out upon impact. 

We abruptly cut to The satellite tracking Sgt. Paul Jackson, which labels him as K.I.A. as a result of the nuclear detonation in the Middle East. As Nikolai contacts Captain Price from Hamburg, Germany, a safehouse in Azerbaijan is analyzed as the SAS team prepares to move in and capture Al-Asad.

Nikolai:
The man is a coward, Captain Price. Al-Asad would never sacrifice himself. There is a safehouse in Azerbaijan that Al-Asad has used in the past. I am sending you the coordinates.

Captain Price:
Understood Nikolai. Gaz, assemble the team. We're going to Azerbaijan.

Gaz:
Yes sir. I hear it's lovely this time of the year...

The satellite tracks Sgt. "Soap" MacTavish in Northern Azerbaijan.

The SAS team groups up near the abandoned gas station. A Russian Loyalist flashes a signal to the team with his flashlight.

Captain Price:
There's Kamarov's man. Let's go.

They link up with the Loyalist.

Russian Loyalist: Al-Asad is in the village. The Ultranationalists are protecting him.

Captain Price:
Perfect. Move out.

As they head up the hill, screams and gunshots can be heard from a distance.

Gaz:
What the bloody hell's going on up there?

Russian Loyalist: It's the Ultranationalists. They're killing the villagers.

Gaz:
Yeah well, not for long they're not.

They come up the hill and encounter the first groups of Ultranationalists. A shootout ensues.

Captain Price:
Soap! Call in air support on that building.

Sgt. "Soap" MacTavish targets an Ultranationalist-occupied building.

Havoc Pilot:
Mosin 2-5 here. We're on the way. Standby for air support.

The Havoc suppresses enemy forces in the house.

Havoc Pilot:
This is 2-5. We have to refuel and rearm. We will not be available for some time.

The team clears the first set of buildings in the village.

Gaz:
Building clear. No sign of Al-Asad. Move on.

They continue to push into the village.

Havoc Pilot:
Mosin 2-5 here. We are ready to attack and are standing by for new orders.

Soap continues calling air support.

Havoc Pilot:
Mosin 2-5 here. We're on the way. Standby for air support.; The helicopter is on the way. We'll handle it. Out.; This is 2-5, we have the target. Standby.

The Havoc arrives and suppresses the targets.

Havoc Pilot:
This is 2-5. We have to refuel and rearm. We will not be available for some time.

Soap tries to call once more.

Soap:
Dammit.

Havoc Pilot:
Negative. We are refueling at this time. Standby.; We are rearming at this time. Standby.

One by one, houses are cleared of enemy troops.

Gaz:
Building is clear. Move on to the next one.; This building's clear! Let's check the other buildings!; Building clear. No sign of Al-Asad. Move on.; Building clear. Let's check the next one.

They push up the hill, eliminate the hostiles there, and reach a barn at the end of the village.

Price:
Remember, we want Al-Asad alive. He's no good to us dead. Let's go.

Price tosses a flashbang in the barn, pulls out his M1911 pistol and kills two Ultranationalist soldiers. He begins to torture and interrogate Al-Asad. The screen goes black as the player hears Price punching Al-Asad.

Price:
Why'd you do it?! Where did you get the bomb?

Al-Asad:
!لا استطيع ان اقول لك (I can't tell you!)

Price:
Who then?

Al-Asad:
!لا استطيع ان اقول لك (I can't tell you!)

Price:
Who?! Give me a name! A name! I want his name!

The vision returns. Al-Asad is seen tied to a chair as Price gives a hard jabbing punch to Al-Asad's ribs and punches him some more. A cell phone rings, and Price stops.

Gaz picks up the cell phone from the ground.

Gaz:
Sir, it's his cellphone.

Gaz tosses the cellphone to Price. Price listens to the voice on the phone, his facial expressions change to seemingly agitated. Al-Asad starts to struggle on his bindings.

Al-Asad:
!لأ! لأ (No! No!)

Price hangs up and drops Al-Asad's phone, pulls out his pistol, and executes Khaled Al-Asad.

Gaz:
Who was that, sir?

Price:
Zakhaev. Imran Zakhaev.

We fade out.

The satellite tracks the village in Azerbaijan where the S.A.S. have recently captured and executed Al-Asad.

Gaz:
E.T.A. on the chopper's at least a half hour, Captain Price.

Captain Price:
No good. We'll be corpses for ten minutes by then. Every Ultranationalist psycho in Zakhaev's pocket is about to show up on our doorstep, coming to claim Al-Asad.

Gaz:
Or what's left of him.

Anti-personnel mines are seen placed throughout the hill as their strategy is analyzed.

Captain Price:
Right. We'll set charges along phase line Alpha on the southern hill... ...and more along phase line Bravo. We'll delay them all the way back to the top, and hold our ground at the extraction point in the fields around the farm. Any questions?

Gaz:
Let's do this.

Ultranationalist: (on a loudspeaker) Surrender at once and your lives will be spared! I am sure you will make right choice given the circumstances! (pause) Drop your weapons and surrender at once! You will not be harmed if you surrender!

Captain Price, Gaz, Sgt. "Soap" MacTavish, and the S.A.S. team move out to face the Ultranationalist counterattack.

Captain Price:
Ignore that load of bollocks. Their counterattack is imminent. Spread out and cover the southern approach.
