doesnt mean

you have to keep doing it.

Why is it people who cant take advice

always insist on giving it?

You think I cant take

my own advice?

I think something is driving you.

And I think Ill never find out

what that is.

Mathis needs me.

Good night.

Congratulations again.

Mathis.

Im afraid your friend Mathis

is really

my friend Mathis.

Youve taken good care

of your body.

Such a waste.

You know

I never understood

all these elaborate tortures.

Its the simplest thing

to cause more pain

than a man can possibly endure.

And of course

its not only the immediate agony,

but the knowledge

that if you do not yield

soon enough

there will be little left

to identify you as a man.

The only question remains

will you yield in time?

I want the money.

Miss Lynd will give me the account

number, if she hasnt already.

So all I need from you

is the password.

The password, please.

Ive got a little itch

down there.

Would you mind?

No! No! No!

No. To the right.

To the right. To the right!

You are a funny man, Mr. Bond.

Yeah!

Yes, yes, yes.

Now the whole worlds gonna know

that you died scratching my balls.

I died?

-I died?

-Yes.

Because no matter what you do,

Im not gonna give you the password.

Which means your clients

will hunt you down

and cut you into pieces of meat

while youre still breathing.

Because if you kill me

therell be nowhere else to hide.

But you are so wrong!

Because even after I slaughtered

you and your little girlfriend

your people would still welcome me

with open arms

because they need what I know.

The big picture.

Give me the password

and I will at least let her live.

Bond. Do it soon enough

and she might even be in one piece.

You really arent going to tell me,

are you?

No.

So I think

Ill feed you

what you seem not to value.

Ill get the money.

Tell them Ill get the money.

Money isnt as valuable to our

organization as knowing who to trust.

Francesco.

Francesco.

Vesper.

Vesper.

No.

Not him.

Not Mathis.

No.

Ill get the doctor.

Not him.

Any ideas?

-What?

-Why they left the two of you alive.

Where is she?

Sleeping.

Well, Im supposed

to get you to drink this.

Its just odd

killing everyone else

but leaving you and her untouched.

Almost as if someone

was trying to tell us something.

Get a look at the killer?

No.

Shame.

Drink up.

Anything else you remember?

Anything that can help us?

Help us?

Or help you?

Hello.

Hello.

You all right?

I cant resist waking you.

Every time I do, you look at me as if

you havent seen me in years.

It makes me feel reborn.

If youd just been born

wouldnt you be naked?

You have me there.

You can have me anywhere.

I can?

Yeah. Here, there,

anywhere you like.

Does this mean

that youre warming to me?

Yeah. Thats how I would describe it.

Its just that not so long ago

I would have described

your feelings towards me as.

Im trying to think

of a better word than loathing.

Im afraid Im a complicated woman.

That is something to be afraid of.

-Hello.

-Oh, perfect timing.

Monsieur Mendel.

How are things in Switzerland?

My apologies,

I do not mean to rush

but 120 million

is a large sum of money.

It certainly is. You didnt bring

any chocolates with you?

Im afraid not.

If you would type in

the account number.

And now the password.

You can do that.

I would if I knew what it was.

V-E-S-P-E-R.

The funds have been transferred.

Sorry for disturbing you.

-Auf Wiedersehen.

-Auf Wiedersehen, Herr Mendel.

You know, James

I just want you to know

that if all that was left of you

was your smile

and your little finger

youd still be more of a man

than anyone Ive ever met.

Thats because you know

what I can do with my little finger.

-I have no idea.

-But youre aching to find out.

Youre not going to let me

in there, are you?

Youve got your armor back on.

Thats that.

I have no armor left.

Youve stripped it from me.

Whatever is left of me.

Whatever is left of me

whatever I am

Im yours.

I suppose M wont miss me

for a couple of days.

Shell be too busy sweating Mathis.

Mathis?

Remember I told you

about Le Chiffres tell?

Well, Mathis told Le Chiffre.

Thats how he wiped me out.

Same goes for the implant. Cant say

Im too sorry about losing that.

I cant believe it.

No, neither could I.

I thought he had my back.

But there you go, lesson learned.

Does everyone have a tell?

Yes.

Everyone.

Everyone except you.

I wonder if thats why I love you.

You love me?

Enough to quit

and float round the world with you

until one of us

has to find an honest job.

But I think thats gonna have to be you.

Ive no idea what an honest job is.

Youre serious.

Like you said

you do what I do for too long

and there wont be any soul

left to salvage.

Im leaving with

what little I have left.

Is that enough for you?

-Come on.

-No. No.

No, stop it. Stop.

I have to get to the bank.

Whats the time?

How much do we need

to float for a month?

Ive got plenty.

No, I want to pay for my half

of our aimless wanderings.

You stopped wearing the necklace.

Yeah. It was time.

Time enough to get over someone?

To realize sometimes

you can forget the past.

Though apparently not

your employer.

Back in one month.

Come on. Ill get the money

you get supplies.

Ill see you back here

in half an hour.

-Hello, M.

-I got your note.

Yes?

Well talk about that later.

Right now I have a lovely man

from the Treasury here

wondering if youre ever

going to deposit the winnings.

Thats a shame.

I didnt think theyd miss it.

Yes. Well, I told them not to worry.

So youll be depositing it today.

On my way to the bank right now.

James Bond for Mr. Mendel.

Hello.

Mr. Mendel? Im having trouble

accessing the funds in my account.

It was transferred

to the account number

your company gave us, Mr. Bond.

It appears the funds

are being withdrawn as we speak.

-Where?

-The Venice branch, of course.

St. Marks Square.

Is there a problem, Mr. Bond?

Ill kill her!

Allow me.

Im sorry, James.

she had a boyfriend.

A French Algerian.

They were very much in love.

He was kidnapped

by the organization behind Le Chiffre.

And they blackmailed her, threatening

to kill him unless she cooperated.

We shouldve picked up on it

but sometimes

were so focused on our enemies

we forget to watch our friends.

How are you doing?

She left her cell phone.

She must have known Id check it.

She knew you were you.

-Well, at least this clears Mathis.

-No.

-No?

-No.

We just proved that shes guilty,

not that hes innocent.

It couldve been a double blind.

Keep sweating him.

You dont trust anyone,

do you, James?

No.

Then youve learnt your lesson.

Get back as soon as you can.

We need you.

Will do.

If you do need time.

Why should I need more time?

The jobs done,

and the b*tch is dead.

James

did you ever ask yourself

why you werent killed that night?

Isnt it obvious?

she made a deal to spare your life

in exchange for the money.
