Revelations

Reznov: Mason, my friend... Tell me... What is left to believe in, when you are betrayed, by your own?

(A TV depicts DEFCON remaining at level two, with twenty-four hours left in the US countdown to nuclear first strike)

Reznov: When all that you are, all that you have done, is buried beneath the lies and deceit of corrupt men. I will die in this wretched place. The only thing that keeps me alive, is the thirst for vengeance. They must be stopped, Mason. Dragovich... Steiner... Kravchenko... ALL MUST die

(ROOM 9)

Interrogator 2: It's no use! We're out of time!

Interrogator: We can't give up now. He was at Vorkuta. He knows how to translate the codes. He's heard the broadcasts which we know contain the location. It's all in his head somewhere. He does know where it is!

Interrogator 2: We have to get to the bunker! We're at DEFCON Two! You've tried everything!

Interrogator: Not yet...I have one more card to play

(The door opens and Hudson enters the room)

(The interrogators are revealed to be Hudson and Weaver)

Hudson: Get out of here, Weaver. Tell them I've failed

Weaver: You want to die with him? Your choice.

(Weaver gets up and leaves. Hudson approaches Mason, then loses control and shoves a TV off its shelf, smashing it)

Hudson: DAMMIT! WHY CAN'T YOU REMEMBER?!

(Hudson violently shakes Mason)

Hudson: Reznov's DEAD, Mason! Do you hear me?!!! HE'S DEAD!!!... Weaver's right, we're out of time. The Russians fucked you up... I know you... you're not a traitor

(He unties Mason's left hand. As he was untying the right hand, Mason clenches his fist and punches Hudson, knocking him down into the TVs and smashing several of them before collapsing on the floor)

(Mason unties his right hand and staggers from the room. Mason hears echoes of prior missions in his head)

Interrogator (voiceover): The numbers, Mason. What do they mean? Where are they broadcast from?

Mason: The numbers...what...are they saying?...

(Mason pictures Reznov giving him the dossier)

Mason: Reznov...Where are you?...Reznov...

(Mason sees flashes of Weaver and Brooks searching a room. He pushes through a double door)

Mason (voiceover): Steiner was there...We had to kill Steiner! I... keep... hearing... the fucking... numbers...

Kravchenko (voiceover): You again?! I should have killed you in Vorkuta!

Dragovich (voiceover): Wait a few moments... Let him rest. When he regains consciousness - Double the voltage

(Mason pushes open a double door into an operating theater and looks back and forth very fast)

Mason: I remember. Ahhhh! Vorkuta!!...

(Flashes of light and numbers return Mason to his memories of Vorkuta, on an operating table surrounded by Steiner, Dragovich and a pacing Kravchenko)

Steiner: The subject has been successfully implanted with the knowledge to translate the number sequences

Dragovich: So - what is the problem?
