Octopussy:
[Bond sneaks on to the island and makes his way into Octopussy's room]
Good evening. I wondered when you might arrive.
James Bond:
So you are the mysterious Octopussy.
Octopussy:
And you are James Bond, 007, licensed to kill. Am l to be your target for tonight?
James Bond:
Oh no, not necessarily. Depends how much you tell me about jewelry smuggling. And why one of our agents was killed in East Berlin.
Octopussy:
I know nothing about that. You remember Major Dexter Smythe? You were sent out to arrest him, weren't you?
James Bond:
You seem to have done your homework.
James Bond:
[Octopussy hands Bond a drink]
Thank you.
James Bond:
Yes. Smythe, after a brilliant military career, was seconded to our secret service. 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.
Octopussy:
And 20 years later you were sent after him.
James Bond:
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.
Octopussy:
He committed suicide rather than face the disgrace of a court martial.
James Bond:
What's the connection?
Octopussy:
He was my father. I'd hoped fate would bring us together one day.
James Bond:
To avenge him?
Octopussy:
No, to thank you for giving him an honorable alternative.
