What the hell do you want from me?

You're gonna show me Dominic

Greene's "Tierra Project."

Are you up to it?

- Do I have a choice?

Do you want one?

There's something horribly

efficient about you.

What a compliment.

What's the bet that Dominic Greene

has friends in the police force?

Stay here.

Buenas Noches

Now why would you want me to do that?

Mathis.

There's a hospital on

the other side of town.

Please... stay with me.

Stay here, please.

Come here.

Okay.

That's better.

That doesn't hurt.

Is Mathis your cover name?

Yes.

Not a very good one, is it?

Do we forgive each other?

I shouldn't have left you alone.

Vesper...

she did everything for you.

Forgive her.

Forgive yourself.

Is that how you treat your friends?

He wouldn't care.

Let's go.

The Foreign Secretary

is asking to see you.

What don't I know?

Rene Mathis

has been shot in Bolivia.

The police claim it was Bond.

How much did you pay him?

- Well, he wanted you.

But I left him the car as collateral.

He'll make much more

when he sells us out.

Alright, let's see if

this thing will fly.

Here...

all the information I found said

there was nothing of value there.

But Greene's geologists

had proof that there was.

My sources tell me you're

Bolivian Secret Service...

or used to be.

I think you infiltrated Greene's

organization by having sex with him.

That offends you?

- No, not in the slightest.

So what's your interest in Greene?

Well, amongst other things, he

tried to kill a friend of mine.

A woman?

- Yes,

but it's not what you think.

Your mother?

Do not ask.

What's that, down there?

That's a sinkhole, there

are a few around here.

Just for the record,

I wasn't with Greene for my-

I think we lost him.

He's coming for us!

It's right behind you!

Here! Put that on!

Come on!

According to the Bolivians,

it was a routine stop,

and when they discovered Mathis'

body, Bond disarmed and shot them.

Of course there are no

witnesses to prove otherwise.

I need something. I

can't go in there unarmed.

I'm sorry, there's nothing.

Come in.

What's today's excuse?

That Bond is legally blind?

No, Minister.

I don't think I need to tell

you how upset the P.M. is.

With respect, the P.M.

has my direct line.

And he'd of used it, if

he'd wanted to speak to you.

I'm sorry M, times have changed. We've

had long discussions with our cousins.

Mr. Greene's interests

and ours now align.

Minister, this man is a major

player in one of the most dangerous

and powerful organizations-

- We've never even heard of.

Foreign policy cannot be conducted

on the basis of hunches and innuendo.

Then give us time to gather enough

evidence, so you can make informed decisions.

Fine.

Say you're right. Say

Greene is a villain.

If we refused to business with villians,

we'd have almost no one to trade with.

The world's running out of oil, M.

The Russians aren't playing ball,

the Americans and Chinese

are dividing up what's left.

Right or wrong doesn't come into

it. We're acting out of necessity.

Bond... is running wild. Who's

to say he hasn't been turned?

Pull him in, or the

Americans will put him down.

I think I've found a way out.

You're freezing.

I'm fine.

So what is it that

Greene has and you want?

It's not Greene, it's Medrano.

The man you met in Haiti.

My father, worked for

the military junta.

He was a very cruel man.

But he was my father.

When I was a small child, the opposition

send General Medrano to our house.

He shot my father... did things

to my mother and my sister...

and then strangled them while I watched.

I was to young to be any trouble.

So he just smiled at me...

and set the house on fire.

He left his mark.

So, when I pulled you off the boat...

I waited years for that chance.

I apologize.

Seems we're both using

Greene to get to somebody.

You lost somebody?

I did, yes.

You catch whoever did it?

No, not yet.

Tell me when you do,

I'd like to know how it feels.

We should go.

You ready?

They've used dynamite.

This used to be a riverbed.

Greene isn't after the

oil, he wants the water.

We can't leave it like this.

It's one dam.

He's creating a drought,

and he'll build others.

Excuse me sir. Your wife left a message.

The English woman. She left

it for you this morning.

Thank you.

- My pleasure.

What is it?

Would you mind waiting down here?

I'll be outside.

So that's what she meant.

I hope you can trust these men.

Just a moment. It's Tanner.

Yes?

We've got the girl downstairs, she says to

tell you she's sorry, but this isn't her fight.

It isn't, let her go.

She isn't our concern.

Well, I'm disappointed.

You are?

How much oil did the

Americans promise you?

This isn't about oil.

- Well that's good, because there isn't any.

It's about trust.

You said you weren't

motivated by revenge.

I'm motivated by my duty.

No.

I think you're so blinded by inconsolable

rage that you don't care who you hurt.

When you can't tell your friends

from your enemies, it's time to go.

You might like to still hold your

theory about there being no oil.

Her lungs are full of it.

It was Greene.

No doubt. But why?

It's just misdirection-

- I mean why her Bond?

She was just supposed to send you home.

She worked in an office,

collecting reports.

Look how well you charm works, James.

They'll do anything for you, won't they?

How many is that now?

You're removed from duty and suspended,

pending further investigation.

You'll give whatever weapons you have

to these men and leave with them now.

Miss Fields showed true bravery. I

want that mentioned in your report.

Now you and need to see this through.

There's nowhere to go.

There's a capture or

kill order out on you.

Who would've done that?

Ma'am?

- Find out where he's going.

He's onto something.

Ma'am, the CIA is insisting-

- I don't give a sh*t about the CIA,

or their trumped up evidence.

He is my agent, and I trust him.

Go on.

Get in.

You gonna try and shoot me?

I said get in.

You're gonna get botulism

if you keep drinking that.

It's bottled water.

It probably came from some stream,

just around the corner from here,

bunch of little kids peeing in it.

That's why I eat the peppers.

- Well, all I'm saying is,

you can't trust a

damn thing around here!

Lincoln Exportar, beunos noches.

You know you could

just answer CIA, Felix.

A taxi driver told me

where the office was.

Well, if we're so easy to find,

James, you really should come visit.

Or maybe you should come out

and see some more of the city.

I heard a rumor you'd gone native.

Felix.

You know, I was just wondering

what South America would look like,

if nobody gave a damn

about coke or communism.

It always impressed me the way

you boys would carve this place up.

I'll take that as a

compliment coming from a Brit.

Are you sure you're

playing with the right side?

Regimes change once a week down here,

Medrano will be no

dirtier than the next guy.
