James Bond : Expecting Davidov? He caught a bullet instead of the plane. Get off. Keep your mouth shut.
Renard : You can't kill me. I'm already dead.
James Bond : Not dead enough for me.
Renard : You could show a little gratitude. I did spare your life at the banker's office. That's right. I couldn't. You were working for me. You delivered the money, killed King and now you brought me the plane.
James Bond : What's your plan for the bomb?
Renard : You first. Or could it be you don't have a plan?
James Bond : That bomb will never leave this room.
Renard : Neither will you.
[Renard and Bond pause for a moment. At that time, the bomb is being hoisted out of the silo]
Renard : How sad... to be threatened by a man who can't grasp what he's involved in.
James Bond : Revenge is not hard to fathom for a man who believes in nothing.
Renard : And what do you believe in? Preservation of Capital?
[Renard pulls away from Bond]
Renard : Go ahead. Shoot me. I welcome it. My men will hear the shot and kill you.
James Bond : And the firefight will bring down half the army from above.
Renard : But when a certain phone call isn't made in twenty minutes, Elektra dies.
James Bond : You're bluffing.
Renard : She's beautiful isn't she? You should have had her before, when she was innocent. How does it feel to know that I broke her in for you?
[Bond gets angry and pistol-whips Renard across the forehead. Renard falls to the ground]
James Bond : [as the puts the silencer on his P99] I usually hate killing an unarmed man. Cold-blooded murder is a filthy business.
Renard : A man tires of being executed.
James Bond : But in your case, I feel nothing just like you.
Renard : But then again, there's no point living if you can't feel alive?
James Bond : Huh?
-
[first lines]
Lachaise : So good of you to come see me, Mr. Bond, particularly on such short notice.
James Bond : If you can't trust a Swiss banker, what's the world come to?

James Bond : I'm giving you the opportunity to walk out with your life.

[Zukovzky fixes the "Zukovsky's Finest" logo on his office door]
Zukovsky : There's nothing in this place straight.
[Zukovsky opens the door and is shocked to see Christmas sitting on a couch in his office]
Zukovsky : Who are you, and how did you get in? I'll call security and congratulate them. Drink?
[the office door moves back, and Bond appears holding a guy at gunpoint]
Zukovsky : Can't you just say a hello, like a normal person?
James Bond : [to guy] Get lost.
[the guy heads moves towards the door, and Bond grabs him by the shirt collar]
James Bond : [to guy] No, no, no, no, no. Down the back!
[to Zukovsky]
James Bond : What's your business with Elektra King?
Zukovsky : I thought you were the one giving her the business.
[Bond points his gun at Zukovsky and walks towards him. Zukovsky walks backwards towards the wall]
James Bond : She drops a million dollars in your casino and you don't even blink an eye! What's she paying you off for?
Zukovsky : [to Chistmas] You know, if I were you, a relationship with a man like that, I wouldn't bet on it.
[Bond tackles Zukovsky and shoves him back into a wall-mounted shelf full of caviar. At that moment, the sound of helicopters surround the skies over the caviar factory]
Zukovsky : Five thousand dollars of Beluga, ruined!
James Bond : That's nothing compared to what a twenty megaton nuclear bomb can do!
Zukovsky : What are you talking about?
Dr. Christmas Jones : We had a nuclear bomb stolen this morning!
James Bond : Renard and Elektra King are working together!
Zukovsky : I didn't know!
James Bond : Well, what do you know?
-
Elektra King : You don't take "no" for an answer, do you?
James Bond : No
Elektra King : I hope you know how to ski, then.
James Bond : I came prepared for a cold reception.
-
James Bond : [about the bomb in the pipeline] You've defused hundreds of these, right?
Dr. Christmas Jones : Yeah, but they're usually standing still.
James Bond : Yes, well, life is full of small challenges.
-
James Bond : Vodka martini. Shaken, not stirred.
-
Dr. Christmas Jones : So, you're a British spy. Do you have a name?
James Bond : The name's Bond. James Bond.
-
Dr. Christmas Jones : Wait a minute. Are you going to do what I think you're going to do?
James Bond : What do I need to defuse a nuclear bomb?
Dr. Christmas Jones : Me.
-
Dr. Christmas Jones : Are you here for a reason? Or are you just hoping for a glimmer? And you are?
James Bond : [With a bad Russian accent] Mikhail Arkov, Russian atomic energy department, Miss?
[hands her the transport documents]
Dr. Christmas Jones : Doctor Jones. Christmas Jones, and don't tell me any jokes, I've heard 'em all.
James Bond : I don't know any doctor jokes.
Dr. Christmas Jones : [after looking at the transport documents] This is okay. Take the elevator down the hall. Your friends are already down there.
James Bond : Don't I get some kind of protection?
Dr. Christmas Jones : No, Dr. Arkov. Down there it's all weapons-grade plutonium - reasonably safe. Up here we've got hydrogen bombs that your lab built leaking tritium, which I spent the last six months trying to clean up. So, if you need any protection at all, it's from me. Your friends are waiting for you.
[Bond walks away]
Dr. Christmas Jones : Doctor? Aren't you forgetting?
[Points to a board with badges on it]
James Bond : Yes, of course. Thank you.
Dr. Christmas Jones : By the way.
[In Russian]
Dr. Christmas Jones : Your English is very good for a Russian.
James Bond : [In Russian] I studied at Oxford.

[Colonel Akakievich and Christmas storm in]
Colonel Akakievich : [to Bond] Hey! Drop the gun!
James Bond : Keep away, Colonel!
Dr. Christmas Jones : He's an imposter. Doctor Arkov is sixty-three years old.
James Bond : [about Renard and his men] This is your imposter, along with the men outside in the plane. They're stealing the bomb.
[Colonel Akakievich picks up an rifle and loads it]
Colonel Akakievich : I said drop it!
[Bond drops the PPK. Renard gets up off the floor]
Colonel Akakievich : [to Bond] On your knees!
[One of Renard's men removes a card from the bomb]
Renard : [Speaks Russian] Well done.
[about Bond]
Renard : He would have killed us all.
[Takes a photograph from Christams's hand]
Renard : This is Peter?
Dr. Christmas Jones : Yeah, but he's no atomic scientist.
Renard : [to Akakievich] I suppose you were the one who let him down.
[Renard shoves the photograph at Akakievich and walks towards Bond]
Renard : [to Bond] You had me. But i know you couldn't...
[Renard squeezes Bond's left shoulder. Bond groans with pain]
Renard : ...shoulder the responsibility.
[Renard lets go of Bond's shoulder and starts walking towards the silo entrance]
Renard : [to Akakievich] Now, without any further interruptions, lets proceed.
Colonel Akakievich : Nyet! There are too many new faces around here, including yours. The bomb doesn't move until I am satisfied.
[to the terrorists]
Colonel Akakievich : Hey, all of you, to the surface, now!
[Renard's men open fire at Akakievich's men]

James Bond : Molly, I need a clean bill of health. You have to clear me for duty.
[pulls Warmflash closer to him]
Dr. Molly Warmflash : James. That wouldn't really be...
James Bond : Ethical?
[removes Warmflash's lab coat]
Dr. Molly Warmflash : Practical. Smart.
James Bond : Well, let's just... skirt the issue, shall we?
[unzips and removes the doctor's skirt]
Dr. Molly Warmflash : You'd have to promise to call me.
[presses down on Bond's broken collar bone]
James Bond : [in pain] Oh.
Dr. Molly Warmflash : This time.
James Bond : Whatever the doctor orders.
[kiss]
Dr. Molly Warmflash : I suppose if you stayed in constant contact.
James Bond : Of course.
[unbuttons and removes Warmflash's shirt]
Dr. Molly Warmflash : If you showed sufficient
[kiss]
Dr. Molly Warmflash : stamina.
[kiss]
Dr. Molly Warmflash : Cut out all kinds of...
[kiss]
James Bond : Strenuous activity?
[kiss]

[after M arrived at the pipleine control centre, Bond and M go into a nearby room]
M : I want an update. Where do we stand?
James Bond : [giving M the locator card] One of Renard's men removed a locator card from the bomb, so we can't track it. But...
M : [cutting Bond off] But what?
James Bond : With all due respect, I don't think you should be here.
M : May I remind you that YOU'RE the reason I'm here, Double-Oh-Seven. You disobeyed a direct order and left that girl alone.
James Bond : Perhaps that girl isn't as innocent as you think.
M : What are you saying?
James Bond : Supposed the inside man, the one who switched King's lapel pin, turned out to be an inside woman.
[M pauses for a moment]
M : She kills her father and attacks her own pipeline? Why? To what end?
James Bond : I don't know. Yet.

Bull : I'll see you later, Mr. Bond.
[Bond sees that Bull has a mouthful of gold teeth]
James Bond : I see you put your money where your mouth is.
Zukovsky : Mr. Bullion does not trust banks.
-
James Bond : I suppose we all have to pay the piper sometime. Right, Q?
Q : Oh, pipe down, 007!
James Bond : Was it something I said?
Q : No, something you destroyed. My fishing boat! For my retirement, away from you!
-
James Bond : Give me the name.
Lachaise : I can't do that.
James Bond : [pointing his gun to Lachaise] Let's count to three. You can do that, can't you?
-
[having shot down a glider]
James Bond : See you back at the lodge. Heh.
-
Elektra King : M told me she was sending someone, Mr.?
James Bond : Bond. James Bond.
-
Elektra King : Shall we?
James Bond : Elektra, this is a game I can't afford to play.
Elektra King : I know.
-
Bill Tanner : He was operating in Moscow in 1996. Pyongyang, North Korea before that. And he's been spotted in Afghanistan, Bosnia, Iraq, Iran, Beirut and Cambodia.
James Bond : All the romantic vacation spots.
-
Elektra King : You ski very well, Mr. Bond.
James Bond : You seem to enjoy being chased. Probably happens all the time.
Elektra King : Less often than you might think.
-
Elektra King : I can't breathe! I can't breathe! I can't breathe!
James Bond : Elektra!
Elektra King : I can't breathe!

-
Zukovsky : Bond! James Bond! Meet Nina and Verushka.

James Bond : I take pleasure in great beauty.
-
Elektra King : A hundred years ago, my mother's family discovered the oil here.
[In Azerbaijan]
Elektra King : When the Soviet Union was formed, the government spent the next 70 years plundering our countryside for it.
James Bond : I saw the mess they left on the drive in.
Elektra King : The new pipeline will guarantee our future. But it would be a crime to destroy what little is left of our past.
-
James Bond : How did you survive?
Elektra King : I seduced the guards. Used my body. It gave me control. And the rest, I got a gun and started shooting.
-
[Bond and Christmas emerge from the ruptured pipeline]
James Bond : [to Christmas, as she emerges from the pipeline] Come on, give me your hand. Jump, jump, jump!
Dr. Christmas Jones : Do you wanna explain why you did that? I could have stopped that bomb! You almost killed us!
James Bond : I *did* kill us! She thinks we're dead and she thinks she got away with it!
Dr. Christmas Jones : Do you wanna put that in English for those of us who don't speak spy? Who's she?
James Bond : Elektra King.
Dr. Christmas Jones : Well, why would she blow up her own pipeline?
James Bond : It makes her look innocent. The explosion covers up the theft of the plutonium. And they make it look like a terrorist attack.
Dr. Christmas Jones : [takes a tin of plutonium out of her bag] But why leave this half?
James Bond : So there's enough to spread around to cover up for the part that they did take.
Dr. Christmas Jones : But what are they gonna do with the other half? Its not enough to make a nuclear bomb.
James Bond : You're the scientist. You tell me?
Dr. Christmas Jones : I don't know. But the world's greatest terrorist running around with 6 kilos of weapons-grade plutonium can't be good. I have to get it back. Or somebody's gonna have my ass.
James Bond : First things first.
[talks into the two-way radio attatched to his belt]
James Bond : Bond to Robinson, do you copy?
Dr. Christmas Jones : By the way, before we go any further, I just want to know. What's the story with you and Elektra?
James Bond : We're stictly plutonic, now.
[into two-way]
James Bond : Bond to Robinson, copy?
James Bond : [to Chrismas] What's your story? What are you doing here in Kazakhstan?
Dr. Christmas Jones : Avoiding those kind of questions - just like you.
Robinson : [from two-way] I read you, Double-Oh-Seven. Red Alert. M is missing with Elektra, three men down. Await instructions. Out.
Dr. Christmas Jones : What do we do now?
James Bond : There's one critical element here I may have overlooked.
Dr. Christmas Jones : What, more plutonium?
James Bond : No. Beluga caviar.
-
Terroist : Do you bring it? The grease!
James Bond : Of course...
[hands him a bag, he pulls out some sports shoes]
Terrorist : Excellent.
