playing for four hours.

Its time for a short break.

We will resume play in one hour.

Well, I think Ill report

on the evenings frivolities.

So?

You want to do what to me?

Youve lost me completely.

You just said you cant wait

to get me back to the room. Come on.

So, whats so damn important?

Im sorry.

Where is my money?

-Good evening.

-Good evening.

Youre holding a parcel for me.

Thank you.

Do you think you can lose that kind

of money and no one would notice?

Your money is safe.

Open that.

Youll have it tomorrow.

All of it.

I would take a hand for this betrayal,

but you need it to play cards.

Hold out your arm.

Hold out your arm, my beauty

or I will take your head.

Go to the room. Wait for me there.

Stairs.

Not a word of protest.

You should find a new boyfriend.

Go find Mathis.

Tell him Ive hidden the bodies here

and I want him to get rid of them.

Do that now. Go. Go, go!

You changed your shirt, Mr. Bond.

I hope our little game

isnt causing you to perspire.

A little.

But I wont consider myself to be

in trouble until I start weeping blood.

Ladies and gentlemen, if everybodys

ready, lets continue the game.

Its like theres blood on my hands.

Its not coming off.

Here, lets see.

Thats better.

You cold?

Yeah.

Here.

You have any trouble

with the bodies?

Less than some.

Being dead doesnt mean

one cant still be helpful.

Thatll keep Le Chiffre

looking over his shoulder.

Hell be wondering whos gonna

come for him next.

Hows our girl?

Melted your cold heart yet?

Call.

Fold.

And call.

Three players.

Three hundred grand.

Bet. Three hundred thousand.

Call.

And call.

Three players.

Look. Its the tell. He is bluffing.

My God, James was right.

to call his bluff.

-Call.

-Call.

Gentlemen, showdown, please.

Full house. Kings and aces.

Monsieur Le Chiffre.

Monsieur Le Chiffre wins.

You must have thought

I was bluffing, Mr. Bond.

Please.

We will now break for one hour.

When we return,

the big blind will be 200,000.

Good game.

Well, Im gonna need the other

5 million to buy back in.

I cant do that, James.

Look, I made a mistake.

I was impatient, maybe I was arrogant,

but I can beat him.

-Im sorry.

-Sorry?

Sorry?

Try putting that in a sentence.

Sorry Le Chiffres gonna win

continue funding terror and killing.

That kind of sorry?

You lost because of your ego,

and that same ego cant take it.

Thats what this is about.

All youre going to do now

is lose more.

Then youre an idiot.

-Im sorry?

-I said, youre a bloody idiot.

Look in my eyes.

I can beat this man, you know that.

Get your hand off my arm.

Vodka martini.

-Shaken or stirred?

-Do I look like I give a damn?

-James.

-Get the girl out.

Funny game, right?

Sorry, I shouldve introduced myself,

seeing as were related.

Felix Leiter, a brother from Langley.

You should have a little faith.

If you keep your head about you,

I think you have him.

Had. Excuse me.

Youre not buying in?

No.

Listen, Im bleeding chips.

Im not gonna last much longer.

You have a better chance.

Ill stake you.

Im saying Ill give you the money

to keep going.

Just one thing. If you pull it off,

the CIA bring him in.

And what about the winnings?

Does it look like

we need the money?

Shall we up the blinds?

Why not?

Bet.

And fold.

Excuse me, please.

-Fold.

-Thank you.

Deal me out.

Sorry, sir. You are the big blind.

Small blind, please.

-Who is it?

-Its 007.

Bonds been poisoned.

Hes going into cardiac arrest.

Stay calm and dont interrupt.

Because youll be dead

within two minutes

unless you do exactly what I tell you.

Im all ears.

Remove the defibrillator

from the pouch.

-Do we know what it is yet?

-Were still scanning.

Attach the leads to your chest.

Ventricular tachycardia. Digitalis.

What do we give him? The kit

has amphetamines, antihistamines

hydrocortisone. Adrenalin?

-As soon as it reads charged

-Lidocaine. Thatll work.

Bond, dont push the red button yet.

Do you hear me? Dont push it.

His hearts gonna stop.

Theres only time for one charge

before he passes out.

Take the blue combipen, Bond.

Mid-neck into the vein.

Thatll counteract the digitalis.

Youre going to pass out

in a few seconds.

You need to keep

your heart going.

Push the red button now, Bond.

-Bond, push the damn button!

-Do it now!

-You okay?

-Me?

-Thank you.

-Youre welcome.

-Now get yourself off to a hospital.

-I will do.

As soon as Ive won this game.

Youre not seriously

going back there?

I wouldnt dream of it.

Bet. One million.

-All in.

-Call. All in.

Gentlemen, showdown, please.

Two pair. Aces and sevens.

Oh, Im sorry.

That last hand, it nearly killed me.

You were almost dead an hour ago.

Come on, Im famished.

Thank you.

Mathis says the Americans

have made contact with Le Chiffre.

Theyre going to extract him

before dawn.

You know, I think

Ill call that a Vesper.

Because of the bitter aftertaste?

No. Because once youve tasted it,

thats all you want to drink.

-I thought that was quite a good line.

-It was a very good line.

But youre laughing at it.

-Not so much it as you.

-Well, thats fine then.

I figured out what that is.

Its an Algerian love knot.

Really? I thought it was

just something pretty.

No, you didnt.

Someone gave that to you.

Hes a very lucky man.

You can switch off so easily,

cant you?

It doesnt bother you,

killing those people?

Well, I wouldnt be very good

at my job if it did.

I dont believe you.

Youve got a choice, you know?

Just because

youve done something
