Down the Rabbit Hole

 is a mission in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. This mission is about Delta Force cooperating with Task Force 141 to save President of Russia, Boris Vorshevsky, and his daughter from a diamond mine. Sandman, Truck, and Grinch all die at the end of this mission.

Gameplay
After the president and his daughter have been taken hostage, "Delta Force" and "Task Force 141-Disavowed" (you play as Yuri) go to the Mir Diamond Mine in Siberia. After going underground to an unknown depth, the elevator doors open and you kill two russian troops facing the other direction, then an RPG is fired at the elevator. The elevator falls down several more stories before coming to a hault. Once to a hault, you have the option to put on night vision googles. The doors of the elevator open and you can see the floor about 4 feet from the bottom of the elevator floor. There are seveal russian troops outside that must be eliminated. Once the doors are fully open, you must enter the mine and go through the tunnels. After a bit, you are advised to take off your night-vision googles as you enter a large mining room complete with conveyor belts, mining equipments, many explosive barrels, mine carts, a control room and many other objects. Once that room is cleared, you move up through a mine tunnel. "Truck" then breaches the door with a circular saw. Once inside, there is a staircase and more russian troops waiting for you. Once you get into the control room of a large vehicle storage room, there will be many more enemies on the floor. Once the room is clear, you go into a staircase room that has a few more enemies in it. One up two fleet of stairs, you go through a wide hallway with chain-link fence on either side. There is an ammo crate here.

Sandman then contacts Overlord with a request for air support. Then the squad breaches the door and heads outside, near the bottom of the mine. The player then pushes forward towards where Alena is being held hostage. The player gets several predator missiles to eliminate multiple enemies causing threat. As the player pushes through multiple sites containg concrete baracades, wooden planks and concrete pipes, a friendly helicopter assists the player. Once to the other side, the player enters the mine once again. This time going through a tunnel with many flames burning. One through a side tunnel, the player must breach a door. Once inside, they find Alena un-conscious and un-guarded. She is safely secured, she then says that they took her father deeper into the mine.

The troop then goes through the next set of doors and through a tunnel, they then have visual contact of Vorshevsky, who needs to be rescued. The player follows russian troops carrying Vorshevsky across a metal bridge. They then rap-ell off the bridge and deeper to the mine. The player then fights through a large mine room that has many enemies in it. Once on the other side of the room, the president is taken into a room with heavy steel doors, there is no way in from the front. Then Price calls everybody to the floor above the room and has Yuri set charges down. Once the charges are detonated, the player falls through and goes into a slow motion scene, where four enemies must be eliminated without harming the president. The mine then starts falling apart and many russian troops are waiting outside for the player. Once on the other side of the room, the helicopter comes to pick up the troops, the Delta Force stays while Soap, the player and the president escape on the helicopter. The level then ends and goes into cutscene.
