- Is this that Carlos guy?
- Look!
- Joey, get down out of there.
This is the only recent photo we
have of him. Taken half a mile away.
It was taken by the Israelis.
You can't blame them for the mix-up.
I hope you're not trying
to talk me out of my lawsuit.
They kept me chained up for
two days after I identified myself.
- They knew who I was.
- I'm not here about your lawsuit.
- I'm trying to tell you..
- Can I finish?
Carlos is the single most vicious
terrorist in the whole world.
He has carried out the worst
terrorist acts in modern history.
Men, women, kids.
Kids like your boy down there.
Blown to bits.
Slaughtered in cold blood.
Did you join the Navy to protect
your country from her enemies?
Carlos is one
As terrorism is a growth industry,
he's a bigger enemy every day.
Why are you telling me all this?
Most of the free world has been
after Carlos for the past ten years.
And they have come up with nothing.
There is only one way to get him.
There is exactly one person,
in the whole world, who can get him.
- How the hell would I get him?
- You'll need to think it over.
The answer's no.
I was trained as a naval officer.
You came to the wrong address.
The man you're looking for is Bond.
James Bond. He lives in England,
drives an Aston Martin. Go see him.
Admiral Crawford, this is
Commander and Mrs. Ward Scowcroft.
I know your family well. I was
with your father at the Academy.
I won't let you down, sir.
Lt. Commander
and Mrs. Annibal Ramirez.
- Annabelle..?
- Annibal, sir.
I'm glad to see we're getting some
Mexican-American officers.
I'm an L.A. boy myself.
I have a soft spot for Mexican food.
- My stomach doesn't always agree.
- We eat Cuban food.
I think your stomach
would find that more agreeable.
- You're Cuban-Americans?
- Yes, sir.
- If he can't appreciate that..
- It's okay, don't worry.
His wife asked me to mow her lawn,
so we'll always have food.
This is a coincidence. I was over at
your lovely house the other day, -
- but I had to leave suddenly and
never got to make your acquaintance.
The pleasure is mine.
- Shaw. Jack Shaw.
- Seor Shaw. Mucho gusto.
My wife speaks English.
So do I.
I should have realized you'd feel
embarrassed speaking Spanish here.
Who is he?
- A white wine and a club soda.
- Yes, sir.
Let me guess,
the wine is for your wife?
in front of the brass.
How can you stand this sh*t?
They're all so f***ing constipated.
- My wife is waiting for her soda.
- There's a fiery retort!
- How about "f*** you, pal"?
- I'd believe it, if it was louder.
