## James Bond

* [After kicking a car down a cliff] He had no head for heights.
* [While buying flowers after killing a motorcycle rider] Just send them to the funeral, would you?
* [To General Gogol, after throwing the ATAC console off a cliff rather than give it to him] That's détente, comrade. You don't have it, I don't have it!
* [Doing a suspect facial composite sketch with Q exaggerating on a computer] A nose, not a banana, Q!

## Blofeld

* [Speaking by radio after shocking the pilot of helicopter that James is riding in controlling it from ground] Good afternoon, Mr. Bond. Don't concern yourself with the pilot. One of my less useful people. You are now flying Remote Control Airways. Think twice, 007. [James hangs outside helicopter] It's a long way down. I've looked forward to this moment, Mr. Bond. I intend to enjoy it to the full. [James lets body of helicopter pilot fall to ground] Really, have you no respect for the dead? [Helicopter flies low to ground] Good-bye, Mr. Bond. I trust you had a pleasant... fright. You are fading from my picture, Mr. Bond. But the end cannot be far away.

## Melina Havelock

* The Chinese have a saying: "Before setting out on revenge, you first dig two graves." I don't expect you to understand. You're English, but I'm half Greek. And Greek women, like Electra... always avenge their loved ones.

## HRMN St Georges operator

* [Observing radar screen] Where the hell did that come from?! What the devil's going on here?! An unidentified object closing fast! [Naval mine implodes ship]

## HRMN St Georges officer

* Destruct ATAC system!

## Dialogue

    [Bond catches Blofeld's wheelchair on the skid of his helicopter and lifts him into the air]
    Blofeld: Mr. Bond! Mr. Bond! We can do a deal! I'll buy you a delicatessen! In stainless steel! Please!
    James Bond: All right, keep your hair on! [Pats him mockingly on the head]
    Blofeld: Put me down! PUT ME DOWN!
    James Bond: [Casually] Oh, you want to get off? [James leans helicopter forward thereby dropping Blofeld down into an industrial chimney]
    Blofeld: MISTER BO...ND! [Voice trails off on the way down, and a crash is heard]
    HRMN St Georges operator: Afternoon. How's it looking topside?
    HRMN St Georges officer: Beautiful day. Just bringing the nets in. Fish for supper again.
    James Bond: [A killer umbrella collapses on a mannequin in the development and testing laboratory] Stinging in the rain?
    Q: That's not funny, 007.
    James Bond: I see you managed to get the Lotus back together again.
    Q: I disregard these jibes about our equipment, 007. I don't suppose you find it funny in the field.
    James Bond: Indeed, I don't.
    Tanner: You were supposed to question Gonzales, not let Miss Havelock perforate him!
    James Bond: I quite agree, sir.
    Frederick Gray: I'm afraid we have to inform the Prime Minister that Operation Undertow is dead in the water. Why... she'll have our guts for garters!
    [At a hotel room, Bibi Dahl gets naked under the sheets]
    Bibi Dahl: That's a laugh. Everyone knows it builds up muscle tone.
    James Bond: Well, how about you build up a little more muscle tone by putting on your clothes?
    Dahl: Don't you like me?
    Bond: [Wearily] Why, I think you're wonderful, Bibi... But I don't think your uncle Aris would approve.
    Dahl: Him? He thinks I'm still a virgin.
    Bond: Yes, well...you get your clothes on and I'll buy you an ice cream.
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf: [Walks up to gambling table] You're perspiring, Bunky.
    James Bond: Contessa.
    Dealer: Five hundred thousand.
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf: [Bunky hands out a stack of tiles] Only half? Where's your courage, Bunky?
    James Bond: Courage is no match for an unfriendly shoe, Countess.
    Dealer: El mío. [Bunky hands out another stack of tiles]
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf: Bravo, Bunky.
    James Bond: [Gives tip to staffer putting cape on Countess] Allow me. [To Countess] May I drive you home?
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf: No, thank you. I'll take a taxi.
    James Bond: No courage? Seriously, you may have a job finding one.
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf: Well, you look like a gentleman. Why not? [Riding with James] I am the Countess Lisl Von Schlaf.
    James Bond: My name is Bond. I'm writing a novel about Greek smugglers. Know any?
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf: Smugglers? How would I know any smugglers?
    James Bond: I would think that a lady in your position... would get to know many things. I'd be most grateful.
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf: How grateful?
    James Bond: Very.
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf:I adore grateful men.
    James Bond: May I call you tomorrow, Countess?
    Countess Von Lisl Schcaf: I'm a night person. I have champagne and oysters in the fridge. Why not come in for a bite?
    James Bond: [To chauffeur] I won't need you anymore tonight.
    Countess Lisl von Schlaf: Oops! Me nightie's slipping.
    James Bond: So's your accent, Countess. Manchester?
    Von Schlaf: Close. Liverpool.
    Bond: That was a rather amusing conversation between you and the owner of this. What exactly did Columbo whisper to you at the restaurant?
    Von Schlaf: That you were a spy, and to find out more about you.
    Bond: And have you?
    Von Schlaf: Have I ever.
    [Bond enters a confessional]
    James Bond: Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.
    Q: [In disguise as the priest] That's putting it mildly, 007!
    [Bond, having completed his mission, is in no mood to speak with his superiors, but rather to go skinny dipping with Melina]
    Melina Havelock: For your eyes only, darling.
    [Melina and Bond's robes drop to the deck. At MI6 headquarters. Frederick Gray is communicating with Bond via his two-way wristwatch]
    Frederick Gray: Good work Bond. Please stand by as we put you through to the Prime Minister.
    [Bond hangs up wristwatch by the perch of Max the Parrot and goes swimming with Melina. Scene changes to 10 Downing Street]
    The Prime Minister: [Over the phone] Ah, Mr. Bond. I wanted to call you personally and to say how pleased we all are that your mission was a success. Thank you.
    Max the Parrot: Thank you, thank you.
    The Prime Minister: Don't thank me, Mr. Bond. Your courage and resourcefulness are a credit to the nation. Denis and I look forward to meeting you. Meanwhile, if there is anything I can do for you...
    Max the Parrot: Give us a kiss, give us a kiss.
    The Prime Minister: Well, really, Mr. Bond.
    Tanner: I think we're having a little trouble with the line, madam.
    Frederick Gray: [To Q] You idiot. Get on to him.
    Q: 007. 007??
    [Max knocks watch overboard]
    Frederick Gray: Bond! Have you gone mad? What's going on? Bond. Bond! BOND!
