M:

Since Oxford. I knew him when he had

nothing but a brilliant mind and enough

guts to conquer the world. He?s a man of

great integrity.

BOND:

Who buys classified reports for three

million pounds.

M picks up the report from her desk. Bond notices it is in

Russian, with a SEAL from a Russian military agency in the

corner:
MIRATOM.

M:

It?s a report on weapons security in the

former Soviet Union, which, as you know,

is shaky at best. He?s had several

instances of sabotage at the pipeline,

and he?s understandably concerned. He

called me the moment he realized its

sensitive nature.

She pours a scotch for Bond. He drops some ice in,

thoughtful.

BOND:

Someone was watching over me in Geneva.

A guardian angel with a laser sight.

He stops, rubs his thumb and forefinger together -- a strange

SIZZLING where he touched the ice. Realization sinks in.

BOND:

King.

M sees the seriousness in his eyes -- stabs at the intercom:

INT. MONEYPENNY?S OFFICE, MI-6 - CONTINUOUS

Moneypenny?s eyes shoot to the intercom console:

M:

(filtered)

Moneypenny, stop King leaving.

MONEYPENNY:

(flicking switch)

Security --

INT. CORRIDORS, MI-6 - CONTINUOUS

Sir Robert King and an MI-6 AIDE walk toward SECURITY.

INT. Q DIVISION, MI-6 - CONTINUOUS

Q and his men are working on a strange half-built BOAT

suspended over a water tank.

Q:

..the hydro boat can operate in three

inches of water...

He looks up as Bond runs through...

INT. SECURITY, MI-6 - CONTINUOUS

THE MONEY lies on the tray, wrapped in plastic.

Sir Robert approaches, two rows of security bars between him

and the cash. An official produces a bag and moves toward

it:

SIR ROBERT:

Thanks, but I?ll count it myself.

(apologetic, smiles)

Lifetime habit. I?m Scottish.

INT. LOWER CORRIDORS/SECURITY AREA, MI-6 - CONTINUOUS

Bond shoots around the corner just in time to see Sir Robert

disappearing past the THICK STEEL DOOR of the secure room.
