Be Advised: This will also be one of the shortest ops here because all that can be changed are the locations and character roles on the ground. And all that can be added are details that make sense.

07:02:03, Rotterdam, Netherlands, Frost and Sandman are already in position at Nice Coffee Shop (yes, it's an actual café in Rotterdam), watching Senior Lieutenant Ivan Alexxeve himself meet with his Los Zetas contacts. While Captain Price, Laswell and Kyle are en route after having set up the getaway.

Sandman: (quietly) Metal 0-1 to Watcher, we're in position at Nice Coffee Shop. Two at the table to our 3 o'clock. One Los Zetas Narco, one Inner Circle Operator, over.

Frost: (quietly) Be advised, the Ultranationalist contact has been positively identified as Senior Lieutenant Ivan Alexxeve.

Laswell: Holy shit. Alexxeve goes way back with Captain Vladimir Makarov himself. We need to get him alive. What are he and Los Zetas up to?

Sandman: Conducting a transaction electronically.

Kyle: He's paying the cartel for something.

Laswell: Let's figure out what.

Captain Price: Security?

Frost: Five, but be careful. Both Alexxeve and his Mexican friend are armed, too.

Kyle: I'll deal with them.

Captain Price: Well, don't take all the fun, eh?

Kyle: *chuckles* Copy.

Laswell: *gives Non-lethal Syringes to Captain Price and Kyle* Syringes.

Kyle: Poison?

Laswell: Non-lethal. It'll take 'em out of commission.

Kyle: C.I.A. shit.

Laswell: Welcome to our world. Use the needle on the guards, and we roll up our Inner Circle friend.

Kyle: And you?

Laswell: Exfil. Say when.

Kyle: Roger that.

Task Force 141, C.I.A. Special Activities Center

Rotterdam, Netherlands

--

Captain Price: 0-1, 0-4, what else you got?

Sandman: They're talking about moving Kilo 2 to the Mexico-United States Border Wall for temperature-taking.

Laswell: When is he moving?

Frost: 22:00 Central Time.

Kyle: Temperature-taking?

Captain Price: Small observations. Laswell's about to get our ride, but there's a cartel guard in her path. Keep him from reaching her.

Kyle: Yes, sir.

While Bravo 7 keeps Watcher safe, Bravo 6 heads to Metal 0-1 and Metal 0-4 for the capture of Ivan.

Sandman: Price, meeting's adjourned. We need to grab Alexxeve now.

Captain Price: Copy. What's the plan?

Frost: Come over to our table. I got another O.G.A. toy that'll help.

Captain Price: *grabs Decoy Grenade* Decoy Grenade.

Frost: (quietly) You and Laswell really are close.

Sandman: Alright, Frost. Finish up and maintain eyes.

Captain Price: I'll get to that alley and stir up the hornet's nest.

Sandman: I'm right behind you.

[Decoy Grenade detonation]

Frost: Two Los Zetas Narcos coming to the alley.

[Captain Price and Sandman tranquilize the two Los Zetas Narcos]

Captain Price: They're down. Where's Alexxeve?

Frost: He's speed walking it. Three more Narcos in front of him.

Captain Price: Cover me. I'm going for him.

[Operator 1911 fire]

[Dutch Crowd yelps and screams]

[Ivan right back elbow strikes, disarms and shoulder throws Captain Price]

[Captain Price tries to disarm Ivan]

[GSh-18 Tactical fire]

Frost: *tranquilizes Ivan* You're welcome, Captain Britain. *carries Ivan*

Captain Price: I had him. *retrieves Operator 1911*

Frost: I know you did.

The Task Force 141 Operators succeed in taking and extracting the Vympel Senior Lieutenant alive. Captain Price and Kyle then go with Laswell to help her hand Ivan off to her C.I.A. extraction team while Frost and Sandman head in the other direction for their own exfil.

Captain Price: Thanks for the assist here, Sandman.

Sandman: My pleasure, Captain. Keep in touch.

Laswell: And Frost. Captain Britain? Really?

Frost: You know how it goes, Watcher. Every whisper. Every rumor. Every... cover-up turned conspiracy theory?

Sandman: Stop talking, Frost. That's an order.

[Frost chuckles]
