A View to a Kill Page #5

Synopsis: James Bond has one more mission. Bond returns from his travels in the USSR with a computer chip. This chip is capable of withstanding a nuclear electromagnetic pulse that would otherwise destroy a normal chip. The chip was created by Zorin Industries, and Bond heads off to investigate its owner, Max Zorin. Zorin may only seem like a innocent guilty man, but is really planning to set off an earthquake in San Andreas which will wipe out all of Silicon Valley. As well as Zorin, Bond must also tackle May Day and equally menacing companion of Zorin, whilst dragging Stacy Sutton along for the ride.

- Shhh!

Are you looking for this?

Quite a letdown.

- St John Smythe?

- Sleeping like a baby.

(snoring)

That's a boy.

There we are.

It's interesting. He's had surgery.

Surgery? That is how Zorin won the race.

Mortner implanted one of

these microchips into Pegasus.

You see, these microchips are

programmed to control an injection

of additional natural horse steroids.

- To overcome fatigue during the race.

- How?

The injection itself, with that small needle,

is triggered by a remote-control transmitter

small enough to fit into

the tip of a jockey's whip

or a cane.

The lights!

There's a world surplus of microchips

and Zorin is hoarding them!

(whir of machinery)

- Dis donc, on va voir ce qui se passe?

- D'accord.

(whirring)

- I'm afraid I wasn't much help.

- Don't worry. It's all wrapped up.

Keep your guard up higher.

And retain your balance.

(muffled shouts)

- Aiiii!

- Oof!

- What now?

- We'd better get back.

The tape ran out five minutes ago.

(phone rings)

I told you not to disturb us.

(Scarpine) It's important.

There's been intruders in the warehouse.

Put Security on full alert.

Let's see where Mr St John Smythe is.

He was the man at the Eiffel Tower.

- We must find him.

- I'll get dressed.

(Bond) May Day, where have you been?

I've been waiting for you.

To take care of me personally.

I see you're a woman of very few words.

What's there to say?

- Is everything here?

- Ja, ja.

Except this.

It is in the wrong place.

Bring St John Smythe to my study

first thing in the morning.

- (Bond) Good morning.

- Good morning.

I understand you wish to see me.

- You slept well?

- A little restless, but I got off eventually.

I have the Progeny Index on the computer:

A compilation of

thoroughbred bloodlines.

Might be helpful to you in selecting

your purchase this afternoon.

As I see it, you need a stallion. For breeding.

A stallion sounds right to me.

I find a computer indispensable.

I have a stallion.

Descended from that horse there.

Misty.

We have several horses

that might interest you.

Would you be interested

primarily in stamina?

- Or speed?

- Well, a little of both would be ideal.

I think I have just the horse for you.

(clock chimes)

It's time for my morning ride.

- Why don't you try him out?

- That sounds a very good idea.

- I shall get into some riding clothes.

- Good.

Half an hour, then. Scarpine will collect you.

Thank you.

(hums)

Tibbett, get into town, call M

and ask him to put a trace on this cheque.

Be quick. If those guards we laid out

identify us we'll have to move fast.

What shall I say if they ask where I'm going?

Just tell them

you have to get the car washed.
