In the pre-title sequence, a hired hitman can be seen arriving on Francisco Scaramanga’s island. The assassin receives his instructions from Scaramanga’s dwarf servant named Nick Nack, who later has the two of them pursue each other through Scaramanga’s funhouse. Scaramanga eventually kills the gangster in the hall of mirrors and jokingly says that Nick Nack will have to try harder to inherit his fortune. He then shoots the fingers off a life-size replica of Bond.
In London, a golden bullet with Bond’s code “007″ etched into its surface is received by MI6. It is believed that Scaramanga has been hired to assassinate Bond and has sent the bullet to intimidate him. Bond’s mission revolves around the work of a scientist named Gibson, thought to be in possession of information crucial to solving the energy crisis by inventing a new technique of harnessing the sun’s power. But because of the perceived threat to the agent’s life, M, his boss, forces him to go on a leave. Bond sets out unofficially to find Scaramanga.
After tracking the bullet via a belly dancer in Beirut and an expert gunsmith in Macau, Bond sees Andrea Anders, Scaramanga’s mistress, collecting golden bullets at the Macau casino. Bond follows her to Hong Kong and after encountering her in the shower and a brief fight, pressures her to tell him about Scaramanga, his appearance and his plans. He is led to a strip club but unbeknownst to him, this is the location of Scaramanga’s next ‘hit’. The target is Gibson who is shot while leaving the club. Before Bond can assert his innocence, however, Lieutenant Hip whisks him away from the scene as the police arrive. Nick Nack steals the “Solex Agitator” needed for operating a solar power plant from Gibson’s pocket. Bond is ferried out of Hong Kong; inside the shipwreck RMS Queen Elizabeth, he meets M and Q and also learns that Hip is their ally.
Bond’s mission is now to retrieve the solex agitator in the face of the energy crisis and assassinate Scaramanga. He travels to Bangkok to meet a Thai entrepreneur, Hai Fat, who is suspected of hiring Scaramanga to murder Gibson, speculating that they never met personally. Bond uses a fake, synthetic nipple to make him look as if he has three nipples (Scaramanga is known to have three himself) and meets Hai Fat at his estate. Hai Fat, however, having already met with Scaramanga, captures and places Bond in his personally owned dojo, instructing his fighters to kill the agent. Bond escapes with the aide of Lt. Hip and his karate-adept nieces, who defeat the entire dojo. Bond speeds away by boat on a Bangkok canal and reunites with his British assistant Mary Goodnight during dinner.Read more
