Bond shifts his aim, east. (Intercut as necessary) He zeroes in on
another face, and the man's stats appear in London.
TANNER:
Vilko Barkoviac. Bosnian war
criminal; thought to be operating
freelance out of Teheran.
(pressing a button)
Full house, seven. Bid to the North.
Bond complies. Another face, another set of stats:
TANNER:
Sitoshi Isagura. Japanese religious
fanatic. Wanted for the Tokyo subway -
ADMIRAL ROEBUCK:
(impatiently, cutting him off:)
I've seen enough. Let's finish this.
(ordering M:
)Tell your man to drop back. We're
initiating plan B -
M:
But -
ADMIRAL ROEBUCK:
- Thank you, M. But this is more
than your man can handle.
(to Bukharin)
Are we in agreement?
BUKHARIN:
(hesitant, at first)
- Yes. Yes.
M:
Admiral -
Moving swiftly, the Admiral has picked up a RED PHONE:
ADMIRAL ROEBUCK:
Command to Nelson: Authorization to
fire.
EXT. A BRITISH WARSHIP - STEAMING IN THE GULF OF OMAN -
INT. WEAPONS CONTROL ROOM - BRITISH WARSHIP -
CAPTAIN:

On my count:
Five. Four. Three. Two -A launcher rotates, and - BOOM - a Cruise missile blasts off.
INT. WARSHIP WEAPONS CONTROL ROOM -
FIRING OFFICER:

FIRING OFFICER'S VOICE (Cont'd)
Time to target:
Four minutes.ADMIRAL ROEBUCK:
I appreciate your assistance, M. But
this is now a military operation.
M:
(urgently, to Tanner)
Bring up the tracking satellite. And
get 007 out of there.
Tanner hits a button - and a third video screen appears, displaying a
satellite view of the area, detailing the Cruise's path and progress.
TANNER:
One to seven:
Exit target area.Repeat -
BOND'S VOICE
Seven to one. Negative. Wait.
THE ROCK OUTCROPPING -
Bond has taken his eye from the scope. He's peering at:
THE MIG-29'S - ("MiG-1," AND "MiG-2") -
A FORKLIFT appears from behind the TRUCK blocking the view of "MiG-l"
A TALL BALD MAN is riding the empty fork, with his back to us.
BOND -
Puts his eye back on the scope, shifts the rifle -
MI-6/VIDEO WALL -
Bond's scope view settles on THE BALD MAN. The forklift reaches the
back of the truck. HE STEPS OFF as the fork begins rising to unload
something. And as the man turns, FACING US to scan the area:
TANNER:
Oh, no.
M:
Who is it?
TANNER:
(calling up his stats)
Kim Dae Yung. North Korean Nuclear
specialist.
M:
Meaning there may be nuclear material
down there?
Tanner nods. A look passes from M, to Bukharin, to Roebuck.
Hugging the surface, crossing from water to land.
VOICE FROM WARSHIP
Time to target:
Three minutes.(sfx:
Beep!)Target acquired. Weapon armed.
Tension. Adrenaline. QUIET PANIC. On the SCREEN, the FORK LIFT has
pulled a RED BOX from the truck, a SHORT ROUND MAN appearing with it.
M:
Who is that?!? What's in the box??
TANNER:
(punching buttons)
I don't know. He's not in the database -
M:
(to Bukharin)
What's in the box, General?
(he shrugs)
What's in the box???
BUKHARIN:
(sheepishly)
... We usually... Transport...
Weapons grade uranium.
Shock sweeps the room. M turns on Tanner:
M:
Will it go off?
TANNER:
Maybe. Maybe not.
M:
Abort the cruise.
ADMIRAL ROEBUCK:
It's too late -
M:
TANNER:
BOND - SQUINTING THROUGH THE RIFLE AT THE OUTCROPPING -
BOND:
Negative, one. NOT YET.
THE TRUCK/MiG-l, ON THE GROUND/THROUGH THE SCOPE -
THE BALD MAN slaps the back of the truck obscuring MiG-1. THE TRUCK
PULLS AWAY, revealing MiG-l's WING. Hanging from the weapons pod: A
NUCLEAR BOMB.
BOND - AT THE ROCK OUTCROPPING -
Mutters a curse.
TANNER:
Soviet SB-9 nuclear torpedo. Yield,
one kiloton.
M:
Will the cruise set it off?
TANNER:
Yes.
ADMIRAL ROEBUCK:
(to Bukharin)
Jesus. Can't you people keep
anything locked up?
GENERAL BUKHARIN
We didn't know it was missing.
M:
Get me the Prime Minister. Alert
NATO, the CIA, the Pentagon.
(presses a button:)
Seven:
This is a direct order. Iwant you out of there. Do you copy?
THE ROCK OUTCROPPING -
Bond's headset lies on top of the rock, along with the telescopic
sight - still broadcasting.
Find Bond, crouching BEHIND the rock. Automatic rifle in one hand,
GRENADE in the other. He pulls the pin, hurls it 40 feet away.
Pauses. Waits, counting down time. Then -
BOND SPRINGS. SHOOTS at one of the CRATES. IT BLOWS UP, just as -
THE GRENADE EXPLODES.
There's PANIC ON THE GROUND. Men running everywhere as THE RADAR/
GATLING GUN spins, and SENDS A HAIL OF FIRE at Bond's diversion.
And with this, BOND is off, SPRINTING INTO THE CHAOS.
THE SAME SCENE - VIDEO SCREEN - MI-6 SITUATION ROOM.
Stoned silence. Disbelief. Tanner whispers:
TANNER:
God help him.
THE CRUISE MISSILE - FLYING THROUGH A MOUNTAIN RAVINE -
God help the rest of us.
As various factions shoot at each other (Who's the traitor?) Bond
streaks toward the action. Without breaking stride, he swings his
gun to the right: TWO BURSTS. THREE MEN DIE. Still running, he
swings to the left: ANOTHER BURST. TWO MORE DOWN.
Ahead, Bond sees the FLIGHT CREWS DASHING for the MiG's. He makes a
beeline for MiG-1.
Slamming the gate on the RED BOX in a cargo truck. Rushing to the
passenger door. Climbing in. The SHORT ROUND MAN floors the
accelerator, driving them away.
THE CRUISE MISSILE - STARTING ITS DESCENT DOWN A MOUNTAIN
MI-6 SITUATION ROOM - M, WATCHING HELPLESSLY -
VOICE FROM WARSHIP
Time to target:
Thirty seconds.WIDE ON MiG-1 -
The pilot climbs the ladder to the cockpit. Running at full tilt,
BOND LEAPS, pulls the man down. They fall to the tarmac, FIGHTING.
Bond SHOVES A KNIFE in the man's ribs, killing him.
Kneeling, Bond takes the pilot's helmet off. He looks up: A MAN is
coming at him with a GUN. In one unbroken move, Bond YANKS THE KNIFE
from the pilot's body and THROWS IT - thwack - into the man's heart.
ANGLE ON MIG-2'S PILOT - WATCHING THIS FROM HIS COCKPIT.
RETURN ON BOND - CLIMBING INTO THE COCKPIT -
Where the COPILOT (having climbed in from the other side,) sees it's
not the right guy. As he fumbles for a weapon, BOND BASHES HIM WITH
THE HELMET. The copilot collapses into his seat, unconscious.
Bond settles into his seat, fires the engines, closes the double
canopy, and begins taxiing out.
THE CRUISE MISSILE - CROSSING OVER THE PERIMETER OF THE AIR BASE
MI-6 SITUATION ROOM - ROEBUCK, TANNER, M, WATCHING, UNABLE TO BREATHE -
The CRUISE SKIMS IN DIRECTLY OVER BOND'S PLANE, speeding to takeoff.
(INT. BOND'S MiG) BOND SHOVES THE THROTTLES TO THE FIREBALL AND -
THE VIDEO-WALL - MI-6 SITUATION ROOM -
KA-BOOM!!!! The scene on the screen erupts in a GIANT EXPLOSION -
then turns to video-snow. Is Bond alive? No one in London knows.
The FIREBALL grows and grows, a raging hell. And just when it seems
no one could possibly survive: BOND'S MiG ROCKETS OUT OF THE FLAMES!!
INT. BOND'S MiG -
