Rebirth (Part 1)

Interrogator: You killed Kravchenko. You obliterated their base. Mason? Bowman was killed. Your entire SOG team, wiped out. Only you, Player, and Woods survived, Mason. No one else

Mason: No, Reznov survived

Interrogator: No he didn't, Mason

Mason: No, no... Reznov is still with me... since Vorkuta!

Interrogator: After you left Kravchenko's compound in Laos, after most of your team was killed, you went rogue

Mason: No! I wasn't rogue! I was continuing the mission!

Interrogator: You went to Rebirth Island, against orders. Why, Mason?!

Mason: Steiner was there! We had to kill Steiner!

Interrogator: But Hudson and the CIA were already on their way to get Steiner at Rebirth. Why did you have to go?

Mason: Dragovich. Kravchenko. Steiner. They all had to die

Interrogator: We wanted STEINER alive! WHY do you have to KILL him?!

(The interrogator slams his hand on the table)

Mason: 'CAUSE THE NUMBERS WERE TELLING ME TO! WHY DON'T YOU FUCKIN' UNDERSTAND?!

Interrogator: Dragovich's sleeper cells are on US soil. Nova 6 is weaponized. They will use it

(A TV depeicts a USN submarine fleet on route to USSR under heading "Mutual assured destruction". DEFCON is switched from level 3 to 2, with first strike in forty hours counting down. It also reveals that after going AWOL, Mason enters the USSR using a stolen light aircraft and a fake Dutch passport)

Interrogator: Moscow has gone dark. We are out of options. A pre-emptive strike on Russia is prepared. The President WILL authorize. MASON! For the LAST time! WHERE is the NUMBER Station?!

Mason: HOW MANY TIMES?! Steiner was at Rebirth Island! We had to kill Steiner!

Interrogator: "We"? As in Viktor Reznov?

Mason: Yes! We wanted the same thing

Interrogator: We're losing him again. Aw, God... He's back at Rebirth

(Vozrozhdeniye "Rebirth" Island, USSR, 1968)

Mason (voiceover): I arrived with Reznov at Rebirth Island. Finally, Steiner was ours

(In a shipping crate, Mason and Reznov prepare to set foot on Rebirth Island)

Reznov: We are here. Rebirth Island... Source of Dragovich's poison. They are preparing to deliver Nova 6

Mason: Not on my watch

(A Russian worker turns his attention to his toolbox, leaving him distracted)

Reznov: Kill him, Mason.

(Mason opens the crate's hatch. Then Mason takes the hatchet and hacks into the side of the worker's neck. He proceeds to hide the body in the cargo crate. Reznov is now forward of Mason checking ahead, despite having been behind Mason and the hatch merely moments ago)

Reznov: We are outnumbered, Mason. We must not attract attention. Stick to the shadows - avoid the helicopter's spotlight

(Following Reznov's lead, Mason hides from the spotlight)

Reznov: Go - Quickly!

(Mason follows Reznov's lead some more making sure not to get spotted by anyone)
