...has been received

from computers.

We now have

T minus seven minutes and counting.

You made a mistake, my friend.

No astronaut would enter the capsule

carrying his air conditioner.

Remove his helmet.

James Bond.

Allow me to introduce myself.

I am Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

They told me you were assassinated

in Hong Kong.

Yes, this is my second life.

You only live twice.

Target vehicle

passing over Central Russia...

...approaching Mongolia.

Track is as predicted.

As you see, I'm about to inaugurate

a little war.

In a matter of hours, when America and

Russia have annihilated each other...

...we shall see a new power

dominating the world.

Target vehicle on scope.

Re-check on target vehicle.

Remove his suit and search him.

Reserve astronaut ready on Bird One.

Re-coordinate with target vehicle.

Bird One now in readiness.

Bird One to Base. Separation

complete. Confirm acquisition.

Calling Bird One.

You are 70 nautical miles downrange.

Confirm target lock-on.

Our job will soon be done.

Blow them up as soon

as they have captured the Americans.

Here is the key...

...to operate the exploder button.

There are men in the crater.

Men in the crater.

- Crater guns fire.

- Crater guns open fire.

The firing power inside my crater

is enough to annihilate a small army.

You can watch it all on TV.

It's the last program

you're likely to see.

Well, if I'm going to be forced

to watch television, may I smoke?

Yes, give him his cigarettes.

It won't be the nicotine

that kills you, Mr. Bond.

Armed guards to control room.

- Close the crater.

- Close crater.

I shall look forward personally

to exterminating you.

Close the shutters.

We are now impregnable.

Interception will occur in 8 minutes.

Nothing can prevent that.

Impregnable?

- Come with me, Mr. Bond.

- Bird One to Base.

Locked on target.

Base calling Bird One.

You are to assume full control

of operation from now on.

Seven minutes to interception.

Roger, Base One.

Houston, this is Hawaii. We have

an unidentified object on scope.

Order first alert. Arm all weapons.

Interception will occur

in six minutes.

This is the price of failure, Mr. Bond.

Come on.

Goodbye, Mr. Bond.

There's an exploder button

up in the control room.

- We've got to get up there.

- Impossible! Too well defended!

Evacuate the control.

Control Room technicians.

There must be another way up there.

Give me cover

till I get to the staircase.

Bon appetit.

Closing fast on our vehicle.

Orbit identical.

All units stand by for code word.

Code word is "imminent."

I repeat. Closing fast on our vehicle.

It was blown up! The enemy!

I repeat...

The enemy has blown up.

All units will return to first alert.

Code word is "not,"

I say again "not imminent."

We've done it.

Steady.

Now, about that honeymoon.

Why not?

But they'll never let you stay.

But they'll never find us.

He's on board, sir.

- Tell him to come below and report.

- It'll be a pleasure, sir.
