After James Bond had two kills that made him the newest agent to hold the title
007, he was sent on an assignment to Madagascar. Bond discovers the Ellipsis code in
the phone of a terrorist he just killed in a foreign embassy there. This made Bond curious
and made him break into his Chief’s (M) penthouse and logged in to her laptop. He gained
intel on the bomb maker and he makes his move by going to the Bahamas and killing
Alex Dimitrios – the middleman who sets criminals up with their employers. Sensing a
deal is going on, Bond follows a terrorist that was yet another bomb maker. He observed
the terrorist and sensed that it was targeting the new plane, Skyfleet.
After making the terrorist disarmed and the plans of Dimitrios and superiors failed,
M sends him to a new mission. They believed that the man behind the Skyfleet attack
was Le Chiffre, a spy for the Soviet Union working in France as the undercover paymaster
of a communist-controlled trade union. They were convinced that Le Chiffre was planning
a high stakes poker competition at Casino Royale in Montenegro. And Bond known as
the best poker player in the service, is sent to take Le Chiffre on his own game.
Bond checks into the hotel and prepares for his operation. He has help from his
partners including Vesper Lynd, a treasury representative who will be keeping her eyes
on the money which Bond gambles. Rene Mathis, MI6’s man in Montenegro and
American CIA man Felix Lieter. Before Bond has a chance to face off with Le Chiffre, the
Soviets make an attempt on his life. He survives a bomb blast unscathed, and a poison
which nearly killed him. He makes it to the casino and confronts Le Chiffre. After tense
drama, Bond manages to beat Le Chiffre in a card game and bankrupts him.
This made Le Chiffre resort to a desperate move. He kidnapped Vesper that made
Bond pursue them. After he crashed his car, he was captured and tortured by Le Chiffre.
Before he has a chance to break Bond, an agent finds Le Chiffre and kills him. Bond and
Vesper manage to escape but Bond is seriously injured. He spends three weeks in the
hospital. While in the hospital Bond contemplates his future as a spy. When he is finally
