James Bond: A View to a Kill (1985) Edit

A bit of soap here... and a little soap there!

A chip totally impervious to magnetic pulse damage.

A compilation of thoroughbred bloodlines.

A fellow sportsman.

A handful of children were produced with phenomenal IQs.

A little over the top for the office?

A little spirited. What's his name?

A new pet, Q?

A silicon integrated circuit:

A stallion sounds right to me.

A staunch anti communist with influential friends in the government.

A successful cover becomes almost second nature.

A very extensive one. But we have no leads.

About the same time Zorin came over to the West.

Activate pumping procedure. 50 per cent power.

Actually I'm with the British Secret Service.

Actually, it's James Stock. London "Financial Times".

Alive and well, I see. And still bungling in the dark.

All outboard valves fully locked, sir.

All personnel not on essential duties, leave underground area immediately.

All the cash, the furniture, everything.

All the king's horses and all his men won't do much with that.

All those explosives. Would they be enough to break the lock?

All we know is that there are people trapped inside of City Hall.

American. She's never far from him. Name's May Day.

An omelette.

And all attributed to natural causes.

And compare it with the chip Bond recovered

And dressed for the occasion.

And I thought that creep loved me!

And I, Achille Aubergine, intend to find it.

And I've just managed to hold on to the house and my shares.

And that's what the $5 million were for? Your shares?

And third number five, Cooper Girl.

And we could do with a couple of glasses.

And you can tell them about the $5 million payoff you received from Zorin.

Are you looking for this?

Are you talking about people or horses?

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

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

As one sportsman to another, I'll make you a proposition.

Ask them to get here as soon as possible.

Baboons could come back.

Be quick. If those guards we laid out identify us we'll have to move fast.

Brilliant. I'm almost speechless with admiration.

Bring it over. Easy.

Bring up some timber, on the double!

Built in the 16th century by a duke who believed he'd be reincarnated as a horse.

But even Sùreté records are sometimes incomplete!

But far better than gold.

But he always loved a good fight.

But if we knew how many wells were involved, we might get a clearer picture.

But more disturbing are your unauthorised commercial ventures.

But must presume the worst.

But necessary, as you refuse to answer your control.

But of course, Minister.

But that means I would have to be...

But there was a side effect: They were psychotics.

But they were trapped in the elevator.

But what would Zorin have to gain?

But... May Day. And my men.

By the way, the preview is in progress at the main stables.

California welcomes him with open arms.

Calm down, Pegasus.

Check the windows and doors, and...

Chuck Lee, CIA. It's a pleasure working with 007.

Clear the safety barrier.

Close up the entrance. Nobody gets out.

Come along, Tibbett. Stop wheezing.

Come on, Fluke! Get a wiggle on!

Come on, let's go. We haven't got all day.

Come on, move!

Come on, run for your life!

Come on.

Come on.

Come on. Back off, will ya?

Come on. Catch!

Come on. Get outta my way.

Come to the point, General.

Come. I will show you.

Commander Bond...!

Congratulations.

Conley is a geologist. Runs Zorin's oil reclamation project in the East Bay.

Could Zorin be one of the steroid kids?

Dead.

Defuse it.

Détente can be beautiful.

Did you know I was an agent with orders to seduce you?

Don't count on it, Zorin.

Don't stand there panting, Tibbett. Start unpacking.

Don't waste any time. There's only 24 hours.

Dr Carl Mortner. At your service.

Drive on!

Easy, Pegasus.

Enjoying our little party, Monsieur... Saint John Smythe?

Enough of this! Control yourselves.

Exactly.

Except this.

Feels even better from where I'm sitting.

Finish shoring up the roof. I'll send the lug back.

First, number one; second, number two; and third, number five.

Five dollars.

Flooding a fault could cause a major earthquake.

Fly casting?

Follow the signs.

For centuries alchemists tried to make gold from base metals.

For several years we've had a profitable partnership:

For violating most of the Napoleonic Code.

Forget about that sergeant promotion.

Frankly, I prefer cross country to steeplechase.

French passport. Speaks at least five languages, no accent.

Frisco. I handle Mr Zorin's oil interests there.

From the body of 003 in Siberia...

From the intense magnetic pulse of a nuclear explosion.

From the modern toaster to sophisticated computers and our defence systems,

Full throttle!

Gentlemen.

Get a coffee over at the hut. Come back in 20 minutes.

Get back!

Get back.

Get down.

Get her away from him.

Get her off!

Get on!

Get this TV crew outta here, will ya?

Give her some air. Comin' through. Out of the way, please.

Give it to me.

Give me a hand.

Give me an update on valve procedure for the Main Strike programme.

Give me some spare clips.

Give me your hand.

Give us a hand unloading this.

Go on, stretch!

Good morning, sir.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning. Here's that reporter I told you about.

Good. Hold 'em.

Good. I'll make a signal to M.

Good. Open valves 16 to 25.

Half an hour, then. Scarpine will collect you.

Have Security keep a good eye on him.

Have thoroughbreds interested you long?

He left Sutton Oil to Dad who expected me, as the only child, to take it over.

He may be armed and he's sure dangerous.

He'll be shown last. We expect him to fetch over three million dollars.

He'll kill millions.

He's a psychopath.

He's anxious to meet you at the reception in the chateau gardens later.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello. I thought you might like to join the party.

Help me!

Help!

Here comes next year's supply.

Hey, let's go!

Hey, on the crane! Swing the cradle over here.

Hey, wait for me!

Hey, watch out! Get out of the way!

Hey, where's that guy goin'? That ladder's unlocked.

Hold it!

Hold position here.

Hold tight.

Holy shit!

How is it you succeed with breeding bloodlines other experts think inferior?

How lovely darling. I can't wait.

Howe "has" to stop Zorin now.

Hurry!

I can tell you a few things about Zorin.

I don't know how long you expect to remain in my employ...

I find a computer indispensable.

I fought him in the courts. It's taken all I had.

I got him. Oh, jeez, I got him!

I have a stallion. Descended from that horse there.

I have some porosity tests I want to show you.

I have the Progeny Index on the computer:

I have to feed him. Are you hungry?

I haven't accepted yet.

I hold you responsible.

I hope not.

I look forward to it.

I must congratulate you, Mr Zorin. Your stables are magnificent.

I no longer consider myself a KGB agent.

I propose to end

I saw the cheque.

I see you are a connoisseur, Monsieur Bond.

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

I should be there.

I suppose you travel a lot?

I think I have just the horse for you.

I think I should be able to find that.

I thought you'd never get back.

I told Howe yesterday that Zorin was pumping sea water into his wells.

I told you not to disturb us.

I understand you wish to see me.

I used a friend's name to get an invitation to the chateau.

I wanna talk to you.

I wish we could be more specific about Zorin's intentions before I go to the top.

I'd have expected the KGB to celebrate if Silicon Valley "had" been destroyed.

I'd sell everything and live in a tent before I give up.

I'll be a few minutes.

I'll fill you in later, Moneypenny.

I'm pleased you approve since you're paying the bill.

I'm Stacey. Sutton.

I'm sure I've seen him somewhere before.

I'm sure that'll be more than adequate. What do you say, Tibbett?

I'm sure they are.

I'm trying not to think about it.

I've been trying to reach you all morning. What have you been up to?

If it happened at the peak of the spring tide for maximum effect...

If they go off, both faults move at once.

If you check with Chuck Lee of the CIA, he'll inform you who I am.

If you tamper with it we're going to blow up.

If you'd like any further information just call me, Mr...

If you're the best they have,

If, 007, you'd ever bothered to read any memos sent from my department,

Immensely. St John Smythe.

In an attempt to enhance intelligence.

In my dressing room later...

In World War II he used steroids on pregnant women in concentration camps

Increase it.

Inferno.

Instead of pumping oil out.

Intuitive improvisation is the secret of genius.

Is Commander Bond here? I'd like to thank him personally.

Is triggered by a remote control transmitter

It is in the wrong place.

It took six million francs in damages and penalties

It's a lot safer than oil. Just in case there are any leaks.

It's Bond.

It's essential the remaining pipelines are open on time.

It's important. There's been intruders in the warehouse.

It's interesting. He's had surgery.

It's Pegasus who storms clear off Fluke and Cooper Girl.

It's time for my morning ride.

It's time to flood the fault.

James, don't leave me!

James, that night in London when I was with the Bolshoi...

James, where are you going?

James!

James!

James.

Jenny!

Jump!

Jumping together is more realistic training.

Just a minor tremor. Measured 2.5 on the Richter scale. Location...

Just another Zorin stooge, Mr... whatever your name was.

Just drop the lawsuit and shut my mouth.

Just going to town to get the car washed.

Just tell them you have to get the car washed.

Keep going!

Keep going!

Keep going!

Keep him on a tight rein!

Keep it coming, keep it coming.

Keep your guard up higher. And retain your balance.

Last job: Chief engineer in a South African gold mine.

Later this month, Zorin will hold his annual sales at his stud near Paris.

Left in a hurry after a cave in killed 20 miners.

Let me escort you there.

Let us through, goddammit.

Let's go, move. Come on, you guys. Gimme a hand.

Let's go, standby crew.

Let's go.

Let's see what the Earthquake Center has on it.

Let's see where Mr St John Smythe is.

Letting the British penetrate the Siberian research centre.

Looks as though you'll have a good turnout for the sale tomorrow.

Lovely party.

Main Strike's in three days. Any delays, I hold you responsible.

May Day, where have you been? I've been waiting for you.

May Day.

May I introduce Miss Sutton? Sheikh Farouk.

Maybe, just maybe, he'll come up with a few answers.

Might be helpful to you in selecting your purchase this afternoon.

Might have some in the back.

Monsieur Smythe.

Monsieur Zorin has been detained.

More! More power.

Move it!

Move it. You're late!

Mr Conley, Mr Smythe.

Mr O'Rourke. I understand you have a problem.

Mr Saint John Smith?

Mr St John Smythe. Allow me to introduce myself.

Mr Zorin, it's a great pleasure.

Mr Zorin, those men are loyal to you.

Mr Zorin.

My department know I'm here. They'll retaliate.

My pleasure.

My principles apply equally to human beings.

Near San Francisco.

No lecture, Q. We're all aware of the microchip.

No, I'm not interested in horses.

No, not severely. Silicon Valley's too far away.

No, not yet.

Not this way. That way!

Now if I place it on the micro comparator

Now that "was" a performance.

Now the talk of the City and the Bourse.

Now we're all here you can get on with the briefing, Q.

Now you tell me.

Now... push!

Of course!

Oh, by the way, the name is St John Smythe. James St John Smythe.

Oh, hell!

Oh, I say! Breakfast "out" of bed.

Oh, James...!

Oh, my Lord, Tibbett! Look at the state of my clothes.

Oh, no, no. I am Mr Zorin's breeding consultant.

Oh, no. As a matter of fact I had a dotty old aunt die and leave me some stables.

Oh, really? Then you can let me into a little secret.

OK, get this stuff movin'! We're an hour late.

OK, get those wedges in there tight!

OK, go!

OK, hold it there.

OK, stand clear.

OK, stay there.

Omit the customary pleasantries, Miss Moneypenny. We're pressed for time.

On the contrary, Admiral.

On the tape Zorin mentioned Silicon Valley. Could that be affected?

One burst in outer space over the UK and everything with a microchip in it,

One minute he's in his stall the next, neither hide nor hair of him.

Only minutes more, Carl. Nothing can stop it now.

Only seconds to go.

Only that Zorin is having a thoroughbred sale at his stud not far from here.

Or a cane.

Our economy needs investors like Mr Zorin.

Out.

Over 250 plants employing thousands of scientists, technicians.

Perhaps a demonstration would convince you.

Perhaps Pegasus does too.

Perhaps we should add this butterfly to our collection, no?

Please.

Precisely why I've initiated an investigation.

Project Main Strike.

Push!

Put Security on full alert.

Quite a letdown.

Raise the bridge? Right now?

Rest and recreation, my darling.

Right you are.

Right, lower it.

Sadly he's missing. We are continuing our search,

Scared them away?

Sea water is used to test the integrity of the pipeline.

Security is formidable but the key to this mystery is there.

Selective breeding is important.

She must take a lot of vitamins.

Silicon Valley and everything in it submerged for ever.

Silicon Valley. Perfect!

Sir Godfrey Tibbett. Our department.

Sir Godfrey, your hat.

Six months ago that company was acquired by an Anglo French combine:

Small enough to fit into the tip of a jockey's whip

So I see.

So I took this job as state geologist

So she and her accomplice came here to kill you.

So Zorin sent along his gorillas to help you make up your mind.

So, does anybody else want to drop out?

Sorry, Granddad.

Sorry.

Sounds interesting. What is it?

Splendid.

Splendid. Scarpine will start us.

St John Smythe, my dear.

Stacey, behind you! Get down!

Stacey, give me your hand.

Stacey, I...

Stacey, jump!

Stand back.

Stand clear.

Standby forward. Bring the gag up here and clear these barriers away.

Steady now, Pegasus.

Steady! Steady, Pegasus.

Steady.

Stock. James Stock. Thank you, Mr Howe.

Stop it!

Surgery? That is how Zorin won the race.

Swing it over to the truck.

Take it off.

Take it up!

Tchaikovsky!

Tell Conley to resume pumping.

Tell me, why do Zorin's horses beat others with superior bloodlines?

Ten times more than they're worth.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That information's available at City Hall.

That is why a private defence contractor came up with this:

That keeps the faults from moving at once.

That made you competitive, successful.

That must lead to the fault. The water from the lakes!

That ties in with the horse injections.

That was delicious.

That was regrettable.

That Zorin oil pumping station ruined one of the best crab patches in the Bay.

That'll be tough. It's very heavily guarded.

That's a boy. There we are.

That's a good idea of yours. Pity you couldn't find one that fits.

That's all right. It was Granddad's ashes.

That's an abandoned silver mine by the San Andreas fault.

That's incredibly dangerous.

That's it.

That's odd. The epicentre's near Zorin's oil field.

That's rather neat. Don't you think?

That's today at 9.41. In less than an hour!

The domination of Silicon Valley.

The essential part of all modern computers.

The French Jockey Club have hired a detective, Aubergine, to look into it.

The greatest cataclysm in history.

The injection itself, with that small needle,

The issue is irrelevant. I've made new associations.

The KGB must have a pipeline into that research company.

The lights!

The new seals are not fully tested.

The oil operation looks clean, except for a problem with the crab fishermen.

The ones he's been using to pump sea water into the Hayward fault.

The Order of Lenin, for Comrade Bond.

The rest of our discussion must of course be confidential.

The San Andreas Lake is right above us. Lots of seepage. Could flood any minute.

The ship's nose is heavy. He must be on the mooring rope.

The Silicon Valley operation must not be delayed.

The stables are over here.

The tape ran out five minutes ago.

The tape?

The trip back from Siberia took a lot out of me.

The vase! No!

The water level's dropping.

Then they set fire to the office to conceal the crime,

Then we have to bring the whole thing up. But how?

There has been a security check of the plant?

There was a heck of a crowd on the piste.

There's a draught from up there.

There's a lot of activity for an abandoned mine.

There's a world surplus of microchips and Zorin is hoarding them!

There's never a cab when you want one.

There's the man I saw at the Pegasus stable

These lead straight into this section of the San Andreas fault.

They didn't go nowhere. They just disappeared.

They have.

They round the turn. Just under a mile to race from this point.

They're extremely sensitive to seismic activity.

This colt is born in the purple.

This evening we'll meet a friend of mine from Washington.

This is a mystery.

This is James Stock of the London "Financial Times".

This is no time to be discussing politics.

This is the heartland of electronic production in the United States,

This is yours, I believe.

This'll hurt him more than me.

Those wells are in the Hayward fault.

Tibbett, get into town, call M and ask him to put a trace on this cheque.

To a kill.

To all units. Intercept murder suspect in stolen fire truck.

To control not only production but distribution of these microchips.

Today we make microchips from silicon, which is common sand.

Try and come this side of the girder.

Unbelievable! In all my years as a trainer

Under the circumstances it was more important to identify the assassin.

Until recently, all microchips were susceptible to damage

Up and away!

Very good, sir.

Vodka rather shaken and one microchip.

Wake up. We're there.

We are now in the unique position to form an international cartel

We are now very proud to present the full brother of Pegasus.

We cannot tolerate that.

We found him and this gun. This yours?

We have several horses that might interest you.

We should look into it.

We trained you. Financed you.

We'd be paralysed at the Russians' mercy.

We'll have a field crew check it out in the morning.

We're behind schedule.

We've had a break in here.

Well, are you buying or selling?

Well, don't you concern yourself with that.

Well, I didn't know that.

Well, I'd like to look at that oil pumping station.

Well, my dear, I take it you spend a lot of time in the saddle.

Well, thank you, Mr Howe. That about wraps it up.

Well, then, I'll...

Well, then, why don't you enlighten me, Zorin?

Well, those...

Well, you came to the wrong place, didn't you?

Well, you heard what Miss Jenny Flex said: There is a reception at six.

Wells report valves open and ready to receive water.

What a performance!

What about fishing?

What about his oil operations?

What about Zorin himself?

What are these tunnels for under these lakes?

What did you learn from Aubergine before his demise?

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

What's all this about Pegasus disappearing?

What's stopping you?

What's there to say?

When you're ready, Tibbett.

Where would Russian research be without it?

Which accounts for what 80% of the world microchip market.

Why do you think I sent you three dozen "red" roses?

With due respect, Minister,

Would be rendered useless.

Would you be interested primarily in stamina?

Would you excuse us? Come on, honey.

Yes, darling?

Yes, I... was looking for the bar.

Yes, I'm afraid it is.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.

Yes.

Yes. Born in Dresden. Fled from East Germany in the sixties.

Yes. Might have some interesting information for us. Set it up, Tibbett.

Yes. My readers want to know why Zorin is pumping sea water "into" his pipeline

You as manufacturers, while I passed on to you industrial information

You blasted well should be.

You can have that Ithacus colt gratis if you stay this course.

You can tell the police which.

You cut the line.

You did not request approval before eliminating 007.

You didn't say what part of the States you come from, Miss...

You disregard procedure.

You know how many S Suttons there are in the US?

You know something? Tomorrow I shall buy you "six" dozen red roses.

You leave me little choice.

You see, these microchips are programmed to control an injection

You there! Get a man down there!

You two have joined forces?

You two, that way.

You were looking for something?

You would realise this is a prototype of a sophisticated surveillance machine.

You're being used, Mr Howe.

You're even lovelier.

You're not staying the night? I was hoping we'd spend the evening together.

Your dedication when you're on the job is most commendable, James.

Your racing activities attract unnecessary attention,

Zorin Industries.

Zorin just has to blast through the bottom of these lakes to flood the fault.

Zorin's kind of man! What about the girl? And the cheque?

And create a... double earthquake? Yes. Except...

And if possible, a clean shirt. Yes, sir.

And to leave us in control of that market. What is it you propose?

Are you a trainer? Horses? Hell, I can't even ride.

Are you all right? Yes.

But I'd hate to be his valet. You'll have to buck up your ideas.

But she'd bear closer inspection. We're on a mission.

Can you help me, Sir Godfrey? I may be able to arrange an invitation.

Can you spare a minute? Sure thing.

Catalogue of the sales. Thank you.

Catch this. I can't reach it!

Check the beach area. Let's get out of here.

City Hall, office 306. Come at once. Right away.

Come on, tell me the truth. Let's not talk shop.

Could he be using drugs? Nothing showed up in the tests.

Did you pass anyone back there? No. I saw no one.

Ensuite, Lafite Rothschild '59. Another excellent choice.

Follow that parachute. Crazy English!

Friends of yours? Exercise boys.

Get 'em back to work. You men, get back to work.

Get the alarms turned off. Yes, sir.

Good evening, Jeff. Evening, ma'am.

Good morning, Comrade Zorin. General Gogol.

Good. Anything from St John Smythe? Nothing about the sale, sir.

He fired me. All right. Calm down.

Hiya, doc! Good afternoon, Mr Conley.

How on earth do you pack my bags? Sorry, sir.

I don't want anyone near this dock. Very good, sir.

I shall get into some riding clothes. Good.

I still have my security pass. Then let's go to City Hall.

I told you, they're locked! Oh, my God, watch out!

I want no part of it, thank you. As you wish.

I wish you wouldn't keep wandering off. I'm sorry, sir.

I'll buy you dinner when we get back. Pegasus!

I'll call a porter. Oh, no need. My man'll take care of it.

I'm a pathetic cook. I'll lend a hand.

I'm afraid I wasn't much help. Don't worry. It's all wrapped up.

I'm in the oil business. Oh. Texas?

I'm sorry, sir. Don't be so damned obsequious.

inspirational. Why not?

Is everything here? Ja, ja.

Is he? Are you?

Is that it? No, no, those are the servants' quarters.

Is there a connection? Sea water?

It must be a ventilation shaft. Wait!

It's the rules. Hard hat area. Thanks.

Killing Tibbett was a mistake. I'm about to make the same one twice.

Let me go and get it. I'll tell Washington we need more help.

Let me show you to your room. Thank you.

Looking for something special? Yes. Soft shell crabs.

Magnetic pulse? Yes, Minister.

Main Strike. Hey, I know that place.

Many congratulations. Thank you.

May I quote you on that, Mr Howe? Certainly.

Minister. Commander.

Mission accomplished? Best beluga.

Mortner? Got a real winner here.

Mr Howe! Stacey, what do you want?

Now which way? The map.

Oh, drat! I've dropped the soap. I'll get it.

Or speed? Well, a little of both would be ideal.

Out. Let's go.

Reconnect the telephone. The box is outside my bedroom window.

Reprisals might jeopardise operations. You jeopardise mine!

Right. Yes, I'm researching an article on Zorin.

Selling?! Horses.

Shut down! The propeller's jammed. Fix it.

So at college I studied geology. And then what happened?

St John Smythe? Sleeping like a baby.

Stacey, are you there? You betcha!

Thank goodness you're here, James. That's very nice, Moneypenny.

Thanks. Now what about Zorin? He's in town. I can have him tailed.

That simplifies things. He's probably armed.

The old rags to riches story. Made his first fortune in oil and gas.

The reception is at six. Thank you, my dear.

This meeting is ill advised. A calculated risk.

To overcome fatigue during the race. How?

Valves 5 to 15 are open. What's the report from the wells?

Valves to wells 26 to 30 open, sir. Right.

We found his body in Chinatown. What?

We have a room for you at the chateau. Oh, splendid.

We have to go and warn people. Wait!

We must find him. I'll get dressed.

Welcome, sir. I'm Jenny Flex. Of course you are.

Welcome. Mr Zorin. Main Strike all set?

Were they wiped over with an oily rag? Terribly sorry, sir.

What are you serving? Whiskas? I only have leftovers in the fridge.

What happened? I got fired.

What have they done? You discharged her.

What now? We'd better get back.

What was it? Stock. James Stock.

What's going on? Tell them... there's been a break in.

What's the position? 007 alive.

What's this loaded with? Rock salt.

What's wrong with them? We had an earth tremor.

When I bring the two images together... They're identical.

Where is he? What's he doing? Just cleaning up a few details.

Where's the fire? On your rear end.

With any success? Virtually every mother aborted.

Won't be long OK.

Would you like it harder? James, you haven't changed.

Would you wait outside? If you'd like me to, yes. Excuse me.

Yes, I love an early morning ride. I'm an early riser myself.

Yes, sir. Bring it up to full. Slowly.

Yes, sir. So I need a white jacket and a black tie.

Yes, thanks. Turn around.

Yes. And... you're a reporter.

You amuse me, Mr Bond. Well, it's not mutual.

You can cook? I've been known to dabble.

You can take your offer and shove it. Don't bother, Stacey

You found anything? Yes. I think I have.

You mean the full brother of Pegasus? Yes.

You slept well? A little restless, but I got off eventually.

You're under arrest. Wait.

Your mount, Mr St John Smythe. A beautiful beast.

"Et voici maintenant" the fabulous Dominique and the enchanted "papillons"!

"He" was the man at the Eiffel Tower.

"Herr Doktor" Mortner will be proud of his creation.

"That" is not the soap.
