Have you any idea where we're heading?

North Africa.

He's got a house, a place called Palmyra.

Somehow I've got to transmit

a message out of here.

It could be risky, but I'm

going to need your help.

What do you want me to do?

I'm going to kiss you.

I want you to respond as if you liked it.

I'm doing this for two very good reasons.

One, because I'm hoping

to provoke a reaction.

And the other one?

Because I always wanted to.

False alarm! False alarm!

All crew return to stations.

We've just picked up a message

from one of our ships in the Med.

I think it's from Bond, sir.

About time.

Yes. He used our emergency

code Tango Zebra.

"Heading North Africa, Palmyra."

Palmyra? Where is that?

Haven't a clue, sir.

Well, find out about it, will you?

I'll do my best, sir.

North Africa?

Quite impressive, huh?

Very.

That's my retreat, where I can

escape and enjoy all my treasures.

How do you like your new home, my princess?

Bond, the game is over. Take him away.

That belonged to Napoleon's empress.

That is my greatest treasure.

Take it. Take it. But be careful.

That is your wedding present.

You betrayed me.

But I forgive you.

And what about my brother?

Your brother...

I hate you. I hate you.

Domino! Domino!

You're crazy.

Yeah, maybe I'm crazy.

What a wonderful view.

You'll see.

Every game has to have a winner.

So... Ciao bello.

Largo.

Bond.

In that case, where did you hide the bombs?

You still think of escape?

I must say, I admire your spirit.

Well,

bomb number one is right

under the President's feet

in Washington DC.

And number two?

You were a very good secret agent. Really.

Bye.

I'm sure this will amuse you.

Goodbye, Domino.

Cover it up.

Hold on.

What are you doing?

James!

Bond, you're a hard man to keep up with.

Clear the line to Washington, Felix.

That's where the first bomb is.

It was never like this

when I was in the Navy.

Here we are.

What's the matter?

You're going back after Largo, aren't you?

Well, I have to.

I want him as much as you do.

Probably more.

I can understand you hating him.

Maybe I don't hate him

enough to risk losing you.

But I don't want to risk losing me, either.

Commander Bond, the Washington

bomb has been located and defused.

Now, sir, from London, your

chief wants to speak to you.

This is M. We've cracked the

code for disarming the warheads,

but we've only got five hours

to find the second bomb.

Now, as you perfectly well know,

I have absolute confidence in you, and I...

That's what kept me going, sir.

Bond, all right, then,

I'll be brief with you.

And I know you've got your hands full.

If you should come through

this fearful ordeal unscathed,

I'd like to offer you

lunch at my club. Over.

That's a thrilling prospect, sir.

But if I do get through this,

I may have other plans.

Steady at 300.

Steady at 300.

There she is, sir.

What's she reading?

Seven fathoms, sir.

No way we can get in there.

The water's too shallow.

Nothing. Nothing moving on board.

AWAC surveillance reports

no sightings on shore.

Now why did Largo anchor here?

Your pendant. Give it to me.

This is The Tears of Allah.

The story goes that the Prophet

wept, and his tears made a well.

The contours are the same.

The diamond must mark a place.

That would be about here.

Right where the oilfields begin.

Sir, there is underwater

activity in the area.

Check the area for underwater caves.

Right, sir.

Sonar signals do indicate

a cavity below sea level

at 015 degrees.

There's an underground river right there.

Commander Pederson, are you

equipped with the new XT-7Bs?

That's top secret. How

do you know about them?

From a Russian translation of

one of your service manuals.

Sorry about that.

Ports open. Fire one.

Fire two. Cut track.

Be careful of the housing.

Watch it.

I've got to go in.

We don't have much time.

Give the sub our position

and get some help.

All right.

Kovacs? Kovacs? Come.

You're not in the right place. Please.

Well done, Dr. Kovacs.

Go ahead. Go ahead.

When the warhead is ready for its

final voyage, we will drink a toast.

There is nothing that can stop us anymore.

The guide rope. Keep the tension.

The Tears of Allah.

Sweet, like money.

For centuries, this has

been a monument to power,

but nothing like what we now possess.

Huh, Kovacs?

Everybody stay undercover!

You, get up there!

Leiter, stay down!

What took you so long?

Hold up on the heavy stuff!

Bond is still in there!

It's armed.

Largo got away with the warhead.

Call down a chopper.

I'm going to try the oasis. Good luck.

Bond's clear! We're moving in!

There you are.

I always have a martini at 5:00.

You'll never give up

your old habits, James.

No, you're wrong. Those days are over.

Oh, no.

I'm sorry, Mr. Bond.

Obviously caught you at a bad moment.

M sent you.

Only to plead for your return, sir.

M says that without you in the service,

he fears for the security

of the civilized world.

Never again.

Never?

Never say never again.

Never, never say never again.

You walk in a room.

A woman can feel the heat.

One look is a guarantee.

Nights could be long and sweet.

The message is clear.

Like nothing I've ever known.

But from all that I hear.

Forget about long-range plans.

'Cause this man's got his own.

To get mixed up with.

A man who says never.

May be big trouble, but then

I just could be the woman to take you.

And make you never say never again.

Never, never say never again.

Never, never say never again.

Never, never say never again.

Never, never say never again.

You've got all the moves.

Oh, but, baby, I got them, too.

No matter your attitude or your mood

I'll come through.

The touch of your voice.

The feel of your eyes on me.

You leave me no choice.

Though I know there's danger there

I don't care, let it be.

To get in bed with.

A man who says never.

May have no future, but then

I just could be the woman to reach you.

And teach you to never say never again

I'll beg you I'll get you

I'll reach you I'll teach you

I'll take you I'll make you
