World Domination



Everything or nothing 007 documentary intro - 
All the james bonds in one...

Dr. Emil Julius No
The Americans are fools. 
I offered My Services; They refused
So did The East. Now they can 
both pay for Their mistake.

007
World Domination —
The same old dream. 

Our asylums are full of people who 
think they're Napoleon. Or God.








Sister Lily: 
Come in. Come in Come in. You poor dears. 
We simply didn’t know when to expect you. First it was teatime yesterday, and then dinner. And it was only half an hour ago we knew you were on your way.
Sister Rose:
Cigarette? There’s American, there’s English, and there’s Turkish. I’m Sister Rose. This is Sister Lily. We’re here to make your stay as pleasant as possible.

007 : 
That’s really most kind of you, but for the moment…
Sister Lily: Of course! You’ll be wanting to see your room! Breakfast is already ordered, and then you’ll want to sleep. The doctor left strict orders you’re not to be disturbed until this evening. He’ll be delighted if you join him for dinner. Shall I say you’ll be there?
007 : Tell him I also will be delighted.
Sister Lily: Splendid. I know he’ll be pleased. Here we are.

Sister Lily: This will be your room, Mr. Bond. This is your bathroom in here. And for you, young lady, this is your room. And you’ll find fresh clothes in here. I hope they fit. We didn’t get your sizes till last night. Don’t hesitate to ring if there’s anything else you want. Anything at all.
007 : Such as two air tickets to London?
Sister Lily: I’ll leave you two dear people in peace.

007 : Well, let’s have some breakfast.
Honey Ryder: How can you eat at a time like this?
007 : Because I’m hungry. We don’t know when we’ll get the chance to eat again. Here, take this. Careful. The whole place is probably wired for sound.
Honey Ryder: Have you…Have you any idea what they’re going to do with us?
007 : No idea. No door handles or windows, either.
Honey Ryder: It’s a prison, then.
007 : Mink-lined with first-class service. What’s the matter?
Honey Ryder: I don’t feel so good. I feel so sleepy.
007 : Damn coffee!

007 : How do you feel?
Honey Ryder: Sleepy. What made us pass out like that?
007 : In the coffee, it was drugged.

Sister Lily: It’s almost time for dinner. We don’t want to keep the doctor waiting, do we?
007 : That would never do. You ready, Honey?
Honey Ryder: I suppose so.

007 : You’re doing fine. Come on. Am I, uh, properly dressed for the occasion?

Sister Lily: 
Quite suitable.

007 : 
Suitable for what?

Sister Lily
This way, please.

Honey Ryder : 
I’m glad your hands 
are sweating, too.

007 : 
Of course I’m scared, too. 
So be natural and leave 
all the talking to me.

Sister Lily: 
In here, please. I hope you enjoy your dinner.

Honey Ryder: Come and look!
007 : Artificial light. We could be hundreds of feet beneath the sea here.

Honey Ryder: 
And look at that. Sea tulips. 
They do not grow above 200 feet.

No : 
One million dollars, Mr. Bond. 
You were wondering what it cost.

007 : 
As a matter of fact, I was.

No : 
Forgive my not shaking hands. It becomes a bit awkward with these. A misfortune. 
You were admiring my aquarium.
007 : Yes. It’s quite impressive.
No : A unique feat of engineering, if I may say so. I designed it myself. The glass is convex, ten inches thick, which accounts for the magnifying effect.
007 : Minnows pretending they’re whales. Just like you on this island, Dr. No.
No : It depends, Mr. Bond, on which side the glass you are. A medium dry martini, lemon peel, shaken, not stirred.
007 : Vodka?
No : Of course. We’ll have dinner at once. There’s so much to discuss, so little time.

007 : Well, Dr. No, you haven’t done badly, considering.
No : A handicap is what you make of it. I was the unwanted child of a German missionary and a Chinese girl of good family. Yet I became treasurer of the most powerful criminal society in China.

007 : 
It’s rare for the Tongs 
to trust anyone who isn’t 
completely Chinese.

No : I doubt they shall do so again. I escaped to America with ten million of their dollars in gold.


007 : 
That’s how you financed this operation. 
It was a good idea to use atomic power. I’m glad to see you can handle it properly. 
I’d hate to think your decontamination 
chamber wasn’t effective.


No : 
My work has given me a unique knowledge of 
radioactivity, but not without costs, as you see.

007 : 
Yes. Your power source 
had our organisation 
puzzled for some time.

No : 
They are still 
puzzled, Mr. Bond.

007 : 
Not any longer. 
I sent a complete report.

No
Bluff, Mr. Bond. You’ve not contacted your headquarters since you requested 
a Geiger counter.

007 : 
But there are so many files open on you already, Dr. No. Our own, the CIA’s…The one from the Tong society that you robbed. When trouble comes, you’ll find this is a very small and naked little island.

No
An expendable little island, Mr. Bond. 
When my mission here in Crab Key is accomplished, I destroy it and move on. But the habit of inquiry is consistent. I see you’re wondering why, where, when. I only gratify your curiosity because you’re the one man I’ve met capable of appreciating what I’ve done. And keeping it to himself.

007 : 
Just a minute. There’s no point in involving the 
girl at this stage. She has nothing to do with us. 
Let her go free. She’ll promise not to talk.

Honey Ryder: 
No, I won’t, I’m staying with you.

007 : 
I don’t want you here.

No : 
I agree. This is no 
place for The Girl
Take her away.

Honey Ryder: 
No! No!

No : 
I’m sure the guards will amuse her.

Honey Ryder: 
Let me go! No!

No : 
That’s a Dom Pérignon ’55. 
It would be a pity to break it
.
007 : 
I prefer the ’53 myself.

No : 
Clumsy effort, Mr. Bond. You disappoint me. I’m not a fool, so please do not treat me as one. And that table knife, please put it back.

007 : 
Well, we can’t all be geniuses, can we? 
Tell me, does the toppling of American missiles 
really compensate for having no hands?

No : Missiles are only the first step to prove our power.

007 : 
Our power? With your disregard for human life 
you must be working for The East.

No : 
East, West – just points of the compass, 
each as stupid as the other. 
I’m a member of SPECTRE.

007
SPECTRE?

No
SPECTRE  --
Special Executive for Counterintelligence, 
Terrorism, Revenge, Extortion --
The four great cornerstones of Power, 
headed by the greatest brains in the world.
007 : 
Correction : Criminal brains.

No : 
The successful criminal brain is always superior. It has to be.
007 : 
Well, why become criminal
I’m sure The West would welcome 
A Scientist of your… caliber.

No : 
The Americans are fools. I offered my services. They refused
So did The East. Now they can both pay for their mistake.

007 : 
World domination. That same old dream. Our asylums are full of people who think they’re Napoleon…or God.

No : 
You persist in trying to provoke me, Mr. Bond. 
I could’ve had you killed in The Swamp.

007 : And why didn’t you?

No : 
I thought you less stupid
Usually, when a man gets in my way…
But you were different

You cost me time, money, effort. 
You damaged my organization and my pride.

I was curious to see what 
kind of a man you were. 
I thought there might even be a place 
for you with SPECTRE

007 :  
Well, I’m flattered. I’d prefer the revenge department. 
Of course, my first job would be finding 
the man who killed Strangways and Quarrel.

 
No : 
Unfortunately, I misjudged you --
You are just a stupid policeman 
whose luck has run out --

Scientist: 
They’re waiting for you in the control room, Dr. No.

No
No hurry. They won’t have started their countdown check yet.

007 : 
You won’t get away with it, Dr. No. 
The Americans are prepared 
for any trouble.

No : 
I never fail, Mr. Bond.

Guard: 
What do we do with him?

No : 
Soften him up. I haven’t 
finished with him yet.
