You Only Live Twice Page #2

Mr. Henderson

would like to see you alone.

Do come in.

Mr. Henderson?

At your service.

I believe you wanted

to ask me some questions.

Yes. Excuse me.

- Thank you.

- I'm glad you got it right.

I lost that in Singapore in '42.

You must excuse this

rather odd mixture of styles...

...but I refuse to go

entirely Japanese.

I'm very fond

of some of these old things.

You've never been to Japan before,

have you?

No, never.

I myself have lived here for...

...28 years...

...and I'm just beginning

to know my way about.

Your most vital contact

will be Tanaka.

He's head of

the Japanese Secret Service...

...and his identity is the most

closely guarded secret in Japan.

When can I see him?

- You can see Tiger tonight.

- Tiger?

His closest friends

are permitted to call him that.

- Do you have any leads of your own?

- Yes, I do.

That's stirred, not shaken.

That was right, wasn't it?

Perfect.

- Cheers.

- Cheers.

Russian vodka. Well done.

I get it from the doorman

at the Russian embassy...

...amongst certain other things.

Now, look.

I think London's theory

about the missile being fired...

...from this country is right.

I don't know how or where, and

don't ask me who's doing it either.

But I have a fairly shrewd idea...

...that a major foreign power

is behind it all.

You mean apart from

Russia and Japan?

It's not Russia, old boy.

I'm sure of that.

It's not Japan either.

Although a large Japanese

industrial concern, it...

Good evening.

Cheers.

Siamese vodka?

Get in, quick!

Now, what the hell's the score?

What do you mean?

My job is to help you.

Like you helped Henderson?

I'm taking you to a place of safety.

No, this time I'm taking you.

I want some information.

I want it now.

- I have no information to give you.

- We'll see about that. Slow down.

Welcome.

Welcome to Japan, Mr. Bond.

It is a great pleasure

to meet you at last.

And how do you like

our country so far?

I am a trifle disappointed at the ease

with which I could pull you in.

The one thing my honorable mother

told me long ago...

...was never to get into a car

with a strange girl.

But you, I'm afraid,

will get into anything with any girl.

I must say, you have a lot of energy

for a dead man, Mr. Bond.

You are James Bond, aren't you?

I am so very pleased to meet you.

I really am.

Permit me to introduce myself.

My name is Tanaka.

Please call me Tiger.

If you're Tanaka,

how do you feel about me?

I love you.

I'm glad we got that out of the way.

I'd like you to examine these

as soon as possible.

They're from Osato's safe.

This is an order for naval stores.

- What is lox?

- It's American smoked salmon.

But it's also the technical name

for liquid oxygen...

...which makes rocket fuel.

- Very interesting. We must go.

The journey out will be

more dignified than the journey in.

That wouldn't be difficult.

- I'd like that negative enlarged.

- Okay.

My private train.

I never travel in the streets of Tokyo.

In my position,

it would be most unwise.

Very convenient.

I imagine your Mr. M in London

has a similar arrangement.

M? Oh, yes. But of course.

Then the girl in the white sports car

is one of us.

- Aki?

- Yes. Very competent.

Do you like Japanese saki,

or would you prefer a vodka martini?

Oh, no. I like saki.

Especially when it's served

at the correct temperature...

...98.4 degrees Fahrenheit,

like this is.

For a European,

you are exceptionally cultivated.

- We'll see the photograph you found.

- Good.

It's just a ship and a strip of land.

Could be anywhere.

My men found a microdot

on the paper.

Enlarge.

It says, "Photograph taken...

...by female American tourist

from coastal vessel.

The woman has been liquidated

as a routine precaution."

- Can we see the photograph again?

- Of course.

So they killed an innocent tourist

for taking this?

Can you make it bigger?

Ning-Po.

Check motor vessel Ning-Po,

full details.

All recent movements

and present whereabouts.

- What's that on the left?

- Focus on the left.

- Diving girls.

- Can you identify that coastline?

Given time, yes.

- Who is the head of Osato Chemicals?

- Mr. Osato.

Can you arrange an appointment

with him tomorrow?

Of course. But tonight,

consider my house yours...

...including all of my possessions,

naturally.

My friend, now you take

your first civilized bath.

Really? I like the plumbing.

Place yourself entirely

in their hands.

Rule number one is

never do anything for yourself...

...when someone else

can do it for you.

- And number two?

- Rule number two?

In Japan, men always come first.

Women come second.

I might just retire to here.

Your English girls would

never perform this simple service.

I think I know one or two

who might get around to it.

Miss Moneypenny, perhaps?

We have our sources, just like you.

Don't get the soap in my eye,

will you?

I suppose you know what it is

about you that fascinates them.

It's the hair on your chest.

Japanese men...

...all have beautiful bare skin.

Japanese proverb say:

Bird never make nest in bare tree.

If Henderson's theory is right...

...why would a foreign power

want to launch missiles from Japan?

Because if ever they were discovered,

they could deny all responsibility...

...especially if some private

organization's doing the work.

- Osato?

- Perhaps.

Mr. Osato is one of

the greatest industrialists in Japan.

- He's merely a front.

- Who is big enough?

- SPECTRE.

- Could be.

Now, massage.

Which girl do you select?

I'll just settle for this little lady.

Good choice.

She's very "sexyful."

The last time someone gave me

a massage was in Hong Kong.

But unfortunately,

we had to cut it short.

We were rudely interrupted

by a couple of gunmen.

So we never got around

to finishing it.

This time, you shall finish it.

Aki.

No one will disturb you tonight.

I think I will enjoy very much

serving under you.

Mr. Fisher? This way, please.

Thank you.

Please come in, Mr. Fisher.

Mr. Osato is expecting you.

Thank you.

You are three and a half minutes early.

Please be seated.

- How do you do, Mr. Fisher?

- How do you do?

Miss Brandt,

my confidential secretary.

- Hello.

- Hello.

May we offer you

a glass of champagne?

No, thank you. It's too early for me.

- You're quite sure?

- Quite sure.

I always take a glass in the morning.

- You should try it.

- Isn't it bad for your liver?

Nonsense.

It adds a sparkle to the day.

Sure it does.

A Dom Perignon '59, Mr. Fisher.

Are you sure

you won't change your mind?

Well, if you insist.

Please be seated, Mr. Fisher.

Thank you.

So you are the new managing director

of Empire Chemicals.

- What happened to Williamson?

- Williamson?

Ah, yes.

He died rather suddenly, poor chap.

From what?

He fell into a pulverizer at the works.

How shocking.

A very honorable death,

all the same.

He gained great face

with the company.

I hope you are not taking
