==Plot==
Despite knowing of their past and what Adler had just done to them, "Bell" states that Perseus is operating on the Solovetsky Islands.
As Washington is informed, Reagan entrusts the CIA with stopping Perseus and maintaining world peace. With many ideal conditions, a naval task force is assembled to bring the team onto the island. Facing fierce resistance, the task force destroys the facility's AA guns, Adler and Bell going through the church while Mason and Woods clear out the AA guns in the West Wing, allowing bombers to raze the radar facility to the ground before Perseus can activate the nukes, but "Bell" is caught in the blast as they are setting up charges.
With the operation concluded, Black informs Reagan of the successful attack, but Perseus has eluded capture. The Soviet government is in disarray, suggesting that Perseus was acting out of his own accord and not theirs. The CIA team rescue "Bell", thankful for their assistance. Hudson then talks about the potential choices that "Bell" had done and if they have helped or hindered their plans to stop Perseus. Black tells Hudson that they haven't wiped out Perseus' network completely due to "one of their own", but Hudson states that they have crippled his network for the time being. He then orders Adler to kill "Bell" to clean up loose ends.
As the two look out to the sea, Adler thanks "Bell" for their sacrifice to the country, stating that they are a hero. He cryptically states that there is one more sacrifice to be done, before stating that he has nothing personal against them. "Bell" then realizes that Adler intends to kill them as the two draw their pistols, after which the screen briefly goes red then quickly fades into black. Their fates are initially left unknown, but it is later revealed that Adler managed to shoot first, killing Bell.Canonizing Black Ops Lore, The Haunting | COD POD Ep. 003
