Your guests have arrived, Ambassador.

We should go, my dear.

(GASPING)

Well, I must say you've become more beautiful every day.

- I'm over here. - Oh, of course you are.

And this is Miss Penelope Smallbone, my new assistant.

Miss Smallbone. What can I say, Moneypenny,

except that she is...

As attractive and as charming...

- As I used to be? - I didn't say that.

You're such a flatterer, James.

Oh, Moneypenny, you know there never has been...

And there never will be anybody but you.

So you've told me.

Welcome to Universal Exports.

Take it, dear. That's all you'll ever get from him.

- Thank you, Commander Bond. - Do you know me?

Miss Moneypenny described you.

In nauseating detail.

- Really? - (BELL TOLLING)

I can see you're going to fit in here very nicely.

(SIGHS)

(DOOR OPENS) Ah. Good morning, 007.

- Morning, sir. Minister. - Commander.

I think you know Jim Fanning, our art expert.

- Yes. Hello, Jim. - James.

Do you know what this is?

It looks like a Faberge egg, sir,

one of the jeweled eggs made by Carl Faberge...

As an Easter gift for the Russian royal family.

They're priceless and, uh... And very rare.

This one contains a model of the imperial state coach.

Hm, top marks, 007.

- Thank you, sir. - Except it's a fake.

Now, there's the real thing.

It's being auctioned at Sotheby's this afternoon.

This is the fourth egg to turn up at auction this year.

It's from none of the usual sources. Anonymous seller,

numbered Swiss bank account.

I'd say... That the vendor was a Russian.

And now this turns up,

a near perfect forgery.

I think Commander Bond

should accompany you to the sale.

(FANNING) Splendid.

I could use an extra pair of eyes.

Perhaps we can try and spot the seller.

They usually turn up out of interest or...

Perhaps just to bump up the price.

- Thank you, Fanning. - Not at all.

If it is the Russians,

it could be an effort to raise currency...

For covert operations abroad or for payoffs.

Either way, we'd better find out what they're up to.

Yes, Minister.

Eyes only, 007. Operation Trove.

You'll be replacing 009.

He turned up dead in East Germany...

With that egg in his hand.

I'm afraid there's not much to go on.

Well, we do have one lead...

Property of a lady.

The next subject on the agenda...

Is the continuing mutual disarmament talks with NATO.

I assume you've all read General Gogol's report.

It seems very... Thorough.

Thank you, Comrade Chairman.

I believe I expressed the opinion of everyone present...

That adoption of NATO proposals...

Does not compromise our defensive position.

(CLEARS THROAT) Comrade Chairman.

General Orlov.

General Gogol is presumptuous.

He speaks for himself and others...

Who cling to timid,

outdated and unrealistic policies.

Must I remind you, the Committee,

of our overwhelming superiority...

Over NATO forces...

Before we give it away? (BEEPS)

In East Germany, under my direct command,

I have 31 divisions, including...

11 tank divisions...

And another five in Czechoslovakia.

In support, on the Russian western border...

Are 60 divisions,

including 22 tank divisions.

In all, a ten-to-one advantage. (SNIFFS).

American and West German forces...

Can field, at most, ten armored divisions.

The British maintain only a token force.

We have played out a variety of attack strategies...

On the new Kutzov computer...

And find that a lightning thrust...

By ten armored divisions from the north...

And by five more through Czechoslovakia...

Lead to total victory in five days...

Against any possible defense scenario.

This is absolute madness.

We know where it will end.

NATO will counterattack with nuclear weapons.

Never!

The West is decadent and divided.

It has no stomach to risk our atomic reprisals.

Throughout Europe, daily demonstrations...

Demand unilateral nuclear disarmament.

I see no reason to risk war...

To satisfy your personal paranoia...

And thirst for conquest.

We must turn our energies to pressing domestic problems.

General Gogol, let me remind you...

Comrades, sit down!

- I wish to tell you... - Both of you!

World socialism will be achieved peaceably.

(RINGING) Our military role is strictly defensive.

Da?

Is that understood, General Orlov?

(SIGHS)

General Gogol, would you continue?

(GOGOL) Thank you, Comrade Chairman.

I will now turn to...

(INDISTINCT WHISPERING) The specifics of my report.

Tell him I will be there as quickly as possible.

Yes, General.

Please! Please.

- I am trying to concentrate. - Lenkin!

What is it?

It's terrible news, Comrade General.

The reproduction has been stolen... In transit.

The thief was dealt with, but the egg was lost in the river.

Your incompetence will destroy us all.

We'll have a replacement made.

There is no time, Comrade General.

I have just been informed

of an unscheduled inventory in two days.

Control yourself, Lenkin!

I'll tell our people in London

we must have the genuine egg back.

I hope we can reach them in time.

(POUNDS GAVEL) Sold to Busoni.

(CROWD MURMURING)

The next lot is number 48...

A superb green/gold

imperial Easter egg by Carl Faberge.

Enameled in translucent green,

enclosed by gold laurel leaf trellis,

set with blue sapphires

and four petalled gold flowers with diamonds.

How much should it fetch?

Oh, 250,000, 300,000 pounds.

Anything more would be crazy.

Used by Tzar Nicholas in 1897 in Moscow.

Property of a lady.

Well, there are quite a few ladies here.

She shouldn't have to be here in person.

She would always be represented by proxy.

I'll start it at 150,000 pounds.

150. 60.

170. 170.

180. 190. 200.

Against you, madam. Any more?

Now, there is a lady.

220,000 pounds. 240.

Stick to the business in hand.

260,000 pounds. 280.

300,000 pounds.

And 20.

Are you bidding, sir?

320,000 pounds. New bidder.

(FANNING) Oh, that's interesting.

- You know him? - Mm-hmm. Kamal Khan.

(FANNING) Usually a seller.

340,000 pounds. 360.

Marginal quality from dubious sources.

380,000 pounds. 400 in the center.

- Well, that should do it. - Any more?

(FANNING) Kamal has gone over the top.

Your bid, sir.

400,000. 400,000.

Any more?

425. New bidder.

Thank you, sir.

- 425. - Have you gone mad?

Let's see how badly he wants it.

450.

450. 475?

The bid is 450. 475?

Against you, sir. No more than 450.

Jim?

The bid is 450,000 pounds.

- (CROWD GASPS) - I have 475.

500,000 pounds. 500,000 pounds.

(ALL GASP)

I have half a million pounds. All done?

(GULPS)

Any more?

Yours, sir. 500,000 pounds.

The next lot is number 49.

You could've been stuck with it.

- I doubt it. He had to buy. - But why?

That's what I intend to find out.

(SIGHS)

You had no business bidding for that egg!

Huh! And what would you have done if you'd got it?

I would have claimed it was a fake, sir, and not paid.

Not paid?

Here's the original.

I switched it with the fake during the auction.

Good God.

And what happens when the buyer discovers that?

Well, he, uh... He complains, if he's legitimate.

Well?

I don't think he will complain.

According to Fanning, this Kamal usually sells.

Now, he buys, I believe,

that the fake will smoke him out.

Our tail followed him to Heathrow

where he caught a plane to Delhi.

Hm. You must go there too.

I'll alert Sadruddin, our man in station I,

to keep him under surveillance.

Book yourself on the next flight out.

I've 55 minutes to catch that flight.

- Oh, Bond. - Sir?

His mission was to recover a cache of Chinese gold

seized in North Korea.

Both he and his native guide disappeared.

The gold was never found.

And 20 years later, you were sent after him.

Well, the guide's body turned up...

With a bullet still in his skull

from Smythe's service revolver.

I traced Smythe to Sri Lanka, faced him with the facts...

And gave him 24 hours to clear up his affairs

before I took him back.

He committed suicide

rather than face the disgrace of a court-martial.

What's the connection?

He was my father.

I'd hoped fate would bring us together one day.

To avenge him?

No, to thank you for giving him an honorable alternative.

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

(OCTOPUSSY) Come in.

Kamal Khan to see you.

Bond has escaped.

How careless of you.

I apologize.

Oh, by the way, Kamal, I'd like you to meet

my new houseguest.

Uh, an old friend of the family, you might say.

How lovely.

You have a nasty habit of surviving.

Well, you know what they say about the fittest.

Octopussy, I would enjoy another opportunity...

To take care of Mr. Bond personally.

I will take care of Mr. Bond myself.

Good night.

And enjoy yourselves.

Mr. Bond.

My father became a leading authority on octopi.

He loved them.

His pet name for me was Octopussy.

Mr. Bond, smuggling is no concern of the Secret Service.

I've violated no British law.

You're free to leave, but I would much prefer...

If you stayed as my guest for a few days.

I'd like that.

Gwendoline, show Mr. Bond to his room.

Good night, Mr. Bond.

Till the morning, then.

Midge.

Extend Mr. Bond every courtesy,

but double the guard on his quarters.

Yes, ma'am.

(CHATTER)

(INDIAN LANGUAGE)

He says the island is heavily guarded.

We don't want to make enemies with the woman.

(INDIAN LANGUAGE)

(LAUGHS)

The woman must not be harmed.

(LAUGHING)

When father's gold ran out,

the people in Hong Kong who disposed of it for him...

Offered me a commission

to smuggle a consignment of diamonds.

I discovered I had a talent for it.

So you went into business for yourself.

Yes, but I needed an organization,

so I revived the old octopus cult.

Well, then, where did you recruit all these lovelies?

There are many of them all over Southeast Asia,

looking for a guru, spiritual discipline, who knows what?

I train them, give them a purpose,

a sisterhood and a way of life.

- In crime. - In business.

I have diversified into shipping,

hotels, carnivals and circuses.

(VIJAY) Is he still there?

You must be joking.

007 on an island populated exclusively by women?

We won't see him till dawn.

I'll relieve you at midnight.

No problem.

Are we going somewhere?

I have to go to Europe tomorrow on a business trip.

Oh, that's a pity.

I-I was just beginning to enjoy myself.

I think you should stay. I'll only be gone a week.

When I come back, we'll discuss the future.

Well, I can't guarantee that I'll be here

when you return.

Oh, James. We're two of a kind.

There are vast rewards

for a man of your talents willing to take risks.

I'm not for hire.

Oh, a man of principle with a price on his head.

Naturally you do it for Queen and country.

I have no country. I have no price on my head.

I don't have to apologize to you, a paid assassin,

for what I am.

No!

You're right. We are two of a kind.

Oh, James.

What happened to Vijay?

He was alive when I found him.

Did he say anything?

All he said was, it was Kamal's men.

No more problems.

You'd best signal M to meet me in Berlin.

Why?

Well, I have to go to a circus in Karl-Marx-Stadt.

(BELL TOLLING)

We verified the Octopussy Circus...

Was in East Berlin when we lost 009.

Karl-Marx-Stadt is further east.

Why would General Orlov

participate in a jewelry caper?

The jewelry, sir, I think, is, if you'll forgive the analogy,

only the tip of the tentacle.

(SCOFFS) Well, here's the I.D. you'll need.

Charles Morton,

manufacturer's representative from Leeds,

visiting furniture factories in East Germany.

- Karl will take you in. - No problem.

Remember, 007, you're on your own.

Well, thank you, sir. That's a great comfort.

You should be more concerned

I am more concerned about an atomic bomb

exploding on a U.S. Air Force base.

You surely can't be inviting a full-scale nuclear war.

What happens when the U.S. retaliates?

Against whom?

My God, of course.

Our early warning system will rule out the possibility...

Of that bomb having been launched from Russia

or anywhere else.

Everyone will assume incorrectly...

That it was an American bomb triggered accidentally.

Oh, that would be the most plausible explanation.

Europe will insist on unilateral disarmament,

leaving every border undefended

for you to walk across at will.

And it doesn't matter a damn to you, I suppose,

that thousands of innocent people will be killed

in that accident of yours.

Better than letting a handful of old men in Moscow...
