Plot[]
CIA operatives - Troy Marshall, Jane Harrow and William "Case" Calderon - are sent to Kuwait during the Operation Desert Storm, to intercept a convoy of the defense minister of Saddam Hussein, Saeed Alawi, to know Saddam's plans. After intercepting and capturing Alawi, Pantheon operatives arrive to get Alawi as well as Iraqi forces to rescue Alawi. Marshall and Harrow are told to wait for the backup, but they decide get Alawi out of there. At the exfil point, their driver, Faraj, doesn't respond to Marshall's messages, and when Marshall's team arrive at the exfil point, Russell Adler, the alleged mole who compromised the invasion of Panama, appeared and killed Alawi. Adler told Marshall that the Pantheon would have captured Alawi and he is a very important man for them, so he had to kill Alawi. Adler also informed the team that the Pantheon has infiltrated the CIA. Adler gives himself in, and Harrow and Marshall brought him back to the CIA.
After the mission, in a cutscene, Deputy Director Daniel Livingstone suspended Marshall, Case, and Frank Woods for not waiting for backup and eventually leading to Alawi being killed.
