THE FACELESS | OPERATION BROKEN CAGE | Bolingbroke Penitentiary Collapse ||

08/14/26 | OPERATION BROKEN CAGE | Bolingbroke Penitentiary Collapse Tonight, the Faceless launches Operation Broken Cage, a large-scale prison assault designed to do more than simply break a handful of people out of Bolingbroke Penitentiary. The objective is to systematically destroy the prison’s ability to contain anyone at all. For days, multiple teams have been preparing different pieces of the operation. Equipment has been acquired; one Merryweather heavy-lift helicopter has been stolen for extraction, access to the prison’s internal security network has been compromised, and explosives are being positioned both inside and outside the facility. Tonight, every part of that preparation comes together at once. Inside Bolingbroke, Andre Tyson, Brandon Valentino, Carmella Corset, Hassan Bashari, Oscar “OP” Perez, and Wesley Brown, along with the rest of 3PAS, will operate as the internal prisoner team. Their role is critical: access the prison’s systems, activate the dormant override previously installed into the cell-door network, and place explosives throughout designated areas inside the facility. When the command is given, the override is intended to unlock the cell blocks, disable internal security doors, open yard access, and bypass selected checkpoints simultaneously. Outside the prison, multiple teams will surround Bolingbroke and attack separate sections of the perimeter. Main Assets | Fregg | Nathan | McNulty | Harry | Ed | Shang These assets will help coordinate and execute the broader prison operation while the inside and exterior teams complete their assigned objectives. The Dullahans | Outside Cameras | Eleanor “Helen” Highwater | Bobby Callaghan | Kai Martin The Dullahans will focus on the prison’s exterior camera and surveillance systems, helping reduce Bolingbroke’s ability to track the teams surrounding the facility. The Habibis | Exterior Explosives | Raymond Romanov | Achez Perez | Wolferson “Wolfy” Johnson | Rai “Blur” Dordai | Michael Verse The Habibis have been assigned explosives around the outside of the prison, forming part of the coordinated perimeter breach. Tower Explosives | The Lost: William Hunter | Derek & The Rest of The Lost | & The Ravens: Dax Marshall | Liam Onita | Deacon Thomas | Louise Gotti-Campbell will attack sections of Bolingbroke’s prison towers and perimeter network by placing explosives as part of the simultaneous exterior attack Adding another breach point to the prison assault. The Execution | The operation is designed around synchronization. At approximately 5:00 PM EST, exterior teams are expected to be prepared with their equipment and ready for deployment. By 5:30 PM EST, every team, including the prisoners operating from inside, is expected to be in position. Exterior crews will surround their designated areas of Bolingbroke while the internal team prepares for the escape sequence. Nobody is supposed to begin planting until the final greenlight is given. At approximately 5:35 PM EST, the internal override will be activated. Every cell door is intended to unlock. The prison escape begins immediately. Faceless prisoners begin moving toward predetermined extraction points while the extraction crew moves in to recover priority assets. At the same time, exterior teams begin the coordinated breach. Explosive teams attack multiple parts of the prison simultaneously while guards are forced to deal with prisoners escaping their cells, compromised internal doors, multiple perimeter breaches, attackers outside the facility, and alarms erupting throughout Bolingbroke. A stolen Merryweather heavy-lift helicopter will then move toward the prison. The helicopter can carry approximately eight people. The extraction group will take priority Faceless assets. If everything remains on schedule, the operation culminates around 6:00 PM EST, when the planted explosives reach the end of their timers, and the final destruction sequence begins. Operation Broken Cage is not simply a prison break. It is an attempt to make Bolingbroke collapse from the inside and outside at exactly the same time: cells opening, security systems failing, walls and towers being breached, prisoners flooding the facility, and helicopters arriving overhead to extract the people the Faceless came to recover. Tonight, every team has one piece of the prison. When the signal is given, they all move at once.
