They got a lot closer to you in Jamaica, didn't they? ‑-
Well, what's on your mind? I'm on

Not any more, you're not.
Signal from London.
DOLLY IN as Bond takes it from him.
Bond
I might have known "M" wouldn't book me into the best

Felix
He asked us to keep an eye on him for you.
Bond
(reading the cable)
Auric Goldfinger.
Sounds like a French nail varnish.
Felix
He's British, but he doesn't sound like it. Big operator, world-wide interests, all
apparently quite reputable. Owns one of
the finest stud farms in the States.
Bond
(zipping up his
top)
What's the tie-up with Washington?
Felix
He's clean as far as C.I.A.'s concerned.
Bond
And where do I find him?
Felix points off. Bond

AT THE TABLE
Goldfinger walks up to Simmons.
Goldfinger
Good morning, Mister Simmons.
Ready for our little game?

you're ten grand in the hole, you're ready for anything.
Goldfinger
(pointing to
Simmons'
chair)
Could I have my usual seat?
Simmons
(rising)
Oh, you and your suntan!

Felix
That Goldfinger's a fabulous card player.
AT THE TABLE
Goldfinger picks up a pencil and starts to write on a notepad.
Goldfinger
Same stakes?
Simmons
Let's double it. Five
dollars a point.
Goldfinger looks up in surprise then takes a hearing-aid
amplifier from his pocket and turns up the volume.
Goldfinger
Did you say five?
Simmons
My luck's got to change sometime.
Goldfinger
(returning the
amplifier
to his pocket)
Okay.
He writes on the notepad.
Simmons sets the deck of cards on the table.

Maid
Hey, what are you...?
But that's Mister Goldfinger's suite!

You're very sweet.
He closes the door behind him.
The maid walks away.

He just drew the king of clubs. That makes his hand fifty-nine.
He's got a diamond run, eight, nine, ten.
Bond starts to open the door.

fixed binoculars and talks into a microphone attached to an intercom.
Jill
He's holding onto the six of spades...

Jill
He likes to win.
Bond

Why do you do it?
Jill
He pays me.
Bond
(looking back at
her)
Is that all he pays you for?
Jill
And for being seen with him.
Bond
Just seen?
Jill
(emphatically)
Just seen.
Bond
I'm so glad.
He looks through the binoculars again and sees Simmons setting

You're much too nice to be mixed up in anything like this, you
know.
He reaches down.

Now hear this, Goldfinger.
Goldfinger looks up at his balcony.
BOND
Your luck has just changed.
Goldfinger keeps looking up.
Bond
I doubt very much if the Miami Beach police would take kindly
to what you're doing.
He grins at Jill then looks back through the binoculars.
Bond
Nod your head if you agree.
Goldfinger sits in silent fury.
Bond
Nod!
Goldfinger nods as subtly as he can.
Bond
Good. Now start losing,
Goldfinger. Shall we say, eh, ten
thousand dollars?
(looks at Jill)
No, let's be generous.
Let's make it fifteen thousand.
Goldfinger's face reflects even greater anger.
Jill
(to Bond)
May I see?
Bond leans back helpfully.
Jill sits up and looks through the binoculars. Bond sniffs her hair.
AT THE TABLE
Goldfinger reluctantly throws another card down, his gaze not
moving from his balcony. Simmons takes
it.
Simmons
Well, I can see this is really my day!
(lays his cards
down)
Gin!
ON THE VERANDA
Jill smiles and leans back.
Bond looks through the binoculars again.
BOND'S POV - GOLDFINGER
has a snarling expression on his face. The binoculars tilt down in time to see him
snap his pencil in half. He jabs one
end of it into the tabletop.
ON THE VERANDA
Bond

Over and out.
He looks over and switches off the intercom.
TWO-SHOT - BOND AND JILL
She looks up at him smiling.
Bond
That should keep him occupied for some time.

Jill
More than anyone I've met in a long time, James.
Bond
Well, what on earth are we going to do about it?

Dinner? Uh, no. Look, I'm sorry, I can't. Something big's come up.
Felix (over phone)
Right.
Bond scratches his ear and pushes the hair away.
Bond
Uh, how about breakfast?
Felix (over phone)
Okay.

Bond sets the bottle on a dressing table and picks up his
bathrobe.
Bond
My dear girl, there are some things that just aren't done...
PAN on him as he walks into the kitchen putting on the
bathrobe. A bamboo screen separates the
kitchen from the bedroom.
Bond
... such as drinking Dom Perignon 'fifty-three above a
temperature of thirty-eight degrees Fahrenheit. That's as bad as listening to the Beatles without ear-muffs.
He opens the refrigerator and kneels.
CLOSER ON BOND
He looks in the fridge.
Bond
Now, where is this passion juice?
A MAN'S HAND suddenly comes up into frame. He wears a black jacket.

"M"
Gold? All over?
Bond

She died of skin suffocation.
It's been known to happen to cabaret dancers.
TRACK LEFT as "M" paces toward a bookcase.
Bond
It's all right provided you leave a small bare patch at the
base of the spine to allow the skin to breathe.
TRACK RIGHT as "M" paces back toward the window.
"M"
Somebody obviously didn't.
Bond
And I know who.
"M" stops and walks up to him.
"M"
This isn't a personal vendetta, double-o-seven. It's an assignment like any other. And if you can't treat it as such, coldly
and objectively, then double-o-eight can replace you.
PAN on "M" as he walks behind his desk.
"M"
You've hardly distinguished yourself, have you? You were supposed to observe Mister
Goldfinger, not borrow his girlfriend.
INTERCUT - BOND AND "M"
Bond looks patiently at "M" as "M" gives
him his "medicine."
"M" (O.S.)
Instead of that, Goldfinger goes off to Europe and it's only by
the grace of God, your friend Leiter, and my intervention with the British
Embassy in Washington that you're not in the custody of the Miami Beach police.
Bond
Sir, I'm aware of my short-comings. But I am prepared to continue this assignment in the spirit you
suggest ‑- if I knew what it was about... sir.
"M"
(putting on his
glasses)
What do you know about gold? ‑- Not paint, bullion.
Bond
I know it when I see it.
"M" picks up a piece of paper and reads it.
"M"

DOLLY IN further as Bond approaches her.
Bond
Hmm. One of these days
we really must look into that.
Miss Moneypenny
Well, what about tonight?

You come round for dinner...
She tosses his hat. In
an insert, it lands on the hat-rack.
Miss Moneypenny
... and I'll cook you a beautiful angel cake.
Bond, looking in surprise at the hat-rack, turns back to Miss Moneypenny.
Bond
Nothing would give me greater pleasure. But unfortunately, I do have a business
appointment.
She pushes him back and walks behind her desk.
Miss Moneypenny
That's the flimsiest excuse you've ever given me. Ah, well, some girls have all the luck. Who is she, James?
Just then "M's" voice comes over the intercom:
"M" (filtered)
She is me, Miss Moneypenny.
IN "M'S" OFFICE - SAME TIME
"M" stands over his intercom holding a switch down.

Bond shuts off the intercom.
Miss Moneypenny

So there's hope for me yet?
Bond kisses her cheek then walks to the hat-rack.

She sits behind her desk smiling as we hear the door close.
DISSOLVE
TO:
INT. BANK DINING ROOM - NIGHT
In MEDIUM CLOSE SHOT we see three men sitting at the table: COLONEL SMITHERS at the head of the table,
"M" on the left and Bond on the right. Each has a brandy snifter in front of him and there is a decanter
in front of Smithers. "M"
takes a sip.
A servant, BRUNSKILL, walks over holding a cigar box. He offers it to "M" who takes a
cigar, then crosses behind Bond and offers it but Bond waves him off.
At the same time we PULL BACK across the extremely long table
until we see a candelabra at each end and an end table in f.g.
Smithers
We
here at the Bank of England, Mister Bond, are the official depository for gold
bullion, just as Fort Knox, Kentucky is for the United States. We know, of course, the amounts we each
hold, we know the amounts deposited in other banks, and we can estimate what is
being held for industrial purposes.
This enables the two governments to establish respectively the true
value of the dollar and the pound.
Consequently, we are vitally concerned with unauthorized leakages.
Bond
I take it you mean...
TWO-SHOT - BOND AND SMITHERS
Bond
...smuggling.
Smithers
Yes.
Brunskill holds the box out to Smithers and he takes a cigar,
then hands it back so Brunskill can clip its end. Meanwhile "M" off-screen lights his cigar and blows out
a puff of smoke.
Smithers
Gold, gentlemen, which has been melted down and recast, is
virtually untraceable, which makes it, uh, unlike diamonds, ideal for
smuggling, attracting the biggest and most ingenious criminals.
Brunskill, bowing slightly, hands Smithers the clipped cigar.
Smithers
Thank you, Brunskill.
That will be all.
Brunskill
Thank you, sir.
Brunskill exits.
Smithers picks up the decanter and hands it to Bond.
Smithers
Have a little more of this, uh, rather disappointing brandy.
MEDIUM SHOT - "M"
"M"
Well, what's the matter with it?
BOND AND SMITHERS
Bond
(looking at the
decanter)
I'd say it was a thirty-year-old fiend indifferently blended,
sir...
"M"
holding his snifter, looks at Bond.
BOND
takes out the stopper and sniffs the contents.
Bond
... with an overdose of Bon Bois.
"M"
"M"
Colonel Smithers is giving the lecture, double-o-seven.
BOND
pouring some brandy from the decanter into his glass, freezes.
THREE-SHOT
The decanter with the stopper in it now sits on the table in
front of Bond, his hand on it.
Smithers
Gentlemen, Mister Goldfinger has gold bullion on deposit in
Zurich, Amsterdam, Caracas and Hong Kong, worth twenty million pounds. Most of it comes from this country.
Bond passes him the decanter.
Bond
Well, why move it?
Smithers passes the decanter to "M."
Smithers
Because the price of gold varies from country to country. If you buy it here at thirty dollars an
ounce, you can sell it in, say, Pakistan at a hundred and ten dollars and
triple your money...
"M"
holding the stopper in his hand, sniffs at the decanter then
looks up at Bond.
Smithers (O.S.)
... providing, of course, you have the facilities for melting
it down.
BOND
Bond
And has he?
THREE-SHOT
"M" puts the stopper back in the decanter and sets it
down.
Smithers
(lowers his cigar)
Apart from being a legitimate bullion dealer, Mister Goldfinger
poses ‑- eh, no, that's not quite fair...
CLOSE SHOT - SMITHERS
now holds the cigar at his mouth.
Smithers
... is, among his many other interests, a legitimate
international jeweler. He's, uh,
legally entitled to operate modest metallurgical installations.
BOND
sits thinking.
THREE-SHOT
Smithers
His British one is down in Kent. As yet, we have failed to discover how he transfers his gold
overseas, and Lord knows we've tried.
(he turns to
"M")
If your department can establish that it is done illegally,
then the Bank could institute proceedings to recover the bulk of his holdings.
"M" looks on in agreement.
SMITHERS AND BOND
Bond
I think it's time Mister Goldfinger and I met ‑-
socially, of course.
Smithers
I was hoping you'd say that.
Smithers rises. PAN on
him as he walks off frame, leaving "M" in f.g.
"M"
It might lead to a business talk ‑- Mister Goldfinger's
kind of business.
BOND
Bond
I'll need some sort of bait.
Smithers (O.S.)
I quite agree.
THREE-SHOT
TRACK with Smithers as he returns to the table holding an
object wrapped in green cloth.
Smithers
This is the only one we have, from the Nazi hoard from the
bottom of Lake Toplitz in the Salzkammergut, but there are undoubtedly others.
He sets it on the table and unwraps the covering, revealing:
CLOSE SHOT - A BAR OF GOLD
Smithers (O.S.)
Mister Bond can make whatever use of it he thinks fit...
THREE-SHOT
Smithers sits back in his chair.
SMITHERS
... providing he returns it, of course. It's worth five thousand pounds.
He lifts his snifter.
CLOSE SHOT - THE BAR OF GOLD
gleams beautifully.
BOND
looks at it then reaches forward.
THE BAR OF GOLD
Bond's hand touches it.
"M"
holds a hand up, stopping him.
"M"
You'll draw it from "Q" branch with the rest of your
equipment in the morning.
BOND
looks back at him and straightens his cuff.
Bond
But of course, sir.
"M"
grins enigmatically at Bond then raises his snifter.
DISSOLVE
TO:
INT. "Q" BRANCH - DAY
TWO MEN in a glass cubicle wearing gas masks face a parking
meter. One of them puts a coin into
it. White gas instantly shoots from it,
filling the cubicle.
WIDER ANGLE
Bond stands outside the cubicle watching the gas expand. DOLLY BACK as Bond walks with a hand in his
pocket to a bench.
"Q" bends over the bench beside a sitting man and
points to an object he's working on.
Bond picks up a hand grenade and looks at it.
Bond
Good morning, "Q."
"Q" immediately takes it from him and sets it down in
a container.
"Q"
Good morning, double-o-seven.
This way, please.
DOLLY WITH THEM as they walk away from the bench.
Bond
My, we are busy this morning.
TWO MEN in an alcove behind them come into view. One wears a trench coat, the other aims a
machine gun at him. Suddenly the gunner
fires at the other man. Bond and
"Q" react and look back.
CLOSER ANGLE
The gunner keeps firing.
The other man looks to one side, apparently not feeling the shots. The gunner stops shooting and the other man
pulls back his trench coat, revealing a bullet-proof vest. He looks down at it.
WIDER ANGLE
The man lowers his hands and feels his crotch as the shooter
looks on. The man looks at the shooter
then feels his crotch again.
"Q" turns to Bond.
"Q"
It's not perfected yet.
Bond
Where's my Bentley?
"Q"
It's had its day, I'm afraid.
DOLLY BACK as they walk forward. A large "NO SMOKING" sign comes into view behind them.
Bond
But it's never let me down.
"Q"
"M's" orders, double-o-seven.
"Q" points off.
PAN OVER to reveal a gray Aston-Martin.
The license plate, white-on-black, reads "BMT 216A."
"Q" (O.S.)
You'll be using this Aston-Martin D.B.-Five with modifications.
TWO-SHOT
Bond and "Q" look down at the car.
"Q"
Now pay attention, please.
"Q" steps over to the car and taps the windshield.
"Q"
Windscreen, bullet-proof...
(points backwards)
... as are the side and rear windows.
He reaches in, turning a switch on the dashboard.
"Q"
Revolving number plates, naturally.
CLOSE SHOT - THE FRONT LICENSE PLATE
It revolves to a white-on-black plate, 4711-EA-62, then a
black-on-white plate, LU-6789, then back to the original plate.
"Q" (O.S.)
Valid all countries.
TWO-SHOT
"Q" reaches into his pocket and takes out a small
silver case. DOLLY IN on "Q"
and Bond.
"Q"
Here's a nice little transmitting device called a
"Homer."
CLOSE SHOT - THE "HOMER"
"Q" (O.S.)
You prime it by pressing that back, like this. You see?
He pulls back the outer cover and the device beeps. Then he holds up a tiny version of the same
device.
"Q"
The smaller model is now standard field issue, to be fitted
into the heel of your shoe. Its larger
brother is magnetic.
He releases the tiny version and it sticks to the larger one.
TWO-SHOT
Bond takes the devices from "Q."
"Q"
Right. To be concealed
in the car you're trailing while you keep out of sight.
"Q" opens the passenger door and sits inside.
"Q"
Reception on the dashboard, here.
CLOSE SHOT - THE DASHBOARD
"Q" presses a button and a small grill on the
dashboard opens with a humming sound, revealing a green "scope."
"Q"
Audio-visual range a hundred and fifty miles.
He turns a dial. An
indicator "blip" appears in the middle of the scope and makes a
beeping sound.
Bond (O.S.)
Ingenious ‑- and useful, too.
TWO-SHOT
Bond
Allow a man to stop off for a quick one on route.
"Q"
(exasperated)
It has not been perfected after years of patient research and
time for that purpose, double-o-seven.
"Q" gets out of the car and shuts the door. Bond glances at the gadgets in his hand then
leans an arm on the roof of the car.
"Q"
And incidentally, we'd appreciate its return, along with all
your other equipment ‑- intact, for once, when you return from the field.
Boned
Well, you'd be surprised the amount of wear-and-tear that goes
on out there in the field. Anything
else?
"Q" walks forward.
DOLLY IN on Bond, looking bored.
"Q"
Well, I won't keep you for more than an hour or so if you give
me your undivided attention. We've
installed some rather interesting modifications.
Bond signs and leans more heavily against the car.
"Q"
walks around to the driver's side and points in through the
window.
"Q"
You see this arm here?
Bond looks in through the passenger window.
CLOSE SHOT - THE CONSOLE
"Q's" hand reaches inside and taps the top of the
console.
"Q" (O.S.)
Now open the top, and inside are your defense mechanism
controls:
"Q" opens the top, revealing numerous switches. He points to many (but not all) of them.
"Q" (O.S.)
... smoke screen, oil slick, rear bullet-proof screen, and left
and right front-wing machine guns.
He closes the top.
BOND
looks on patiently but without much interest.
"Q" (O.S.)
Now this one I'm particularly keen about.
Bond looks inside again.
CLOSE SHOT - THE STICK SHIFT
"Q's" finger points to it.
"Q" (O.S.)
You see the gear lever here?
Now, if you take the top off...
(he flips the top
open, revealing a
red button)
... you'll find a little red button.
He closes the top again.
MEDIUM SHOT - "Q"
"Q"
Whatever you do, don't touch it.
MEDIUM SHOT - BOND
Bond
And why not?
MEDIUM SHOT - "Q"
He holds his hands over the roof.
"Q"
Because you'll release this section of the roof...
(points inside
again)
... and engage and then fire the passenger ejector seat.
(throws a hand
upwards)
Whoosh!
MEDIUM SHOT - BOND
Bond
Ejector seat? You're
joking!
MEDIUM CLOSE SHOT - "Q"
"Q"

striped tie, brown golfing pants and shoes, and he holds a matching brown cap.
Goldfinger
Ready, Blacking?
Blacking
Yes, sir.
DOLLY BACK to reveal Bond in f.g. He wears a purple sweater and black slacks and is looking at a
rack of golf clubs.
Blacking
(to Goldfinger)
Uh, there's an old member dropped by, sir. Same handicap as yours. I wondered if you would rather play with
him?
Goldfinger
Where is he?
Blacking turns to Bond.
Blacking
Uh, Mister Bond?
BOND
turns to Blacking.
Bond
Yes?
Blacking (O.S.)
This is Mister Goldfinger.
GOLDFINGER

He studies him a moment, then speaks.
Goldfinger
How do you do?
BOND

Bond
How do you do?
GOLDFINGER

Blacking (O.S.)
You can go straight off.
The first tee is clear.
THREE-SHOT
DOLLY IN as Bond walks past them to the door.
Bond
Fine.
Blacking
I'll get Hawker to carry for you, Mister Bond.
Bond
(turning back)
Well, that'll be splendid.
(to Goldfinger)
Shall we make it a shilling a hole?
Goldfinger
Um-hmm.
Bond smiles at him and walks out the door.
EXT. GOLF SHOP - SAME TIME
As Bond emerges we hear Goldfinger talking to Blacking:
Goldfinger (O.S.)
I'll take some tees.
Blacking (O.S.)
Ah, yes. Of course.
Bond suddenly looks ahead and stops.
BOND'S POV - THE GOLF COURSE
ODDJOB steps into a rigid stance right across from him. A golf bag hangs incongruously from his
shoulder.
ANGLE ON BOND
Goldfinger comes out of the shop behind him, smiling at Bond's
concerned look.
Goldfinger
Oh, you must excuse Oddjob, Mister Bond. He's an admirable manservant, but mute. He's not a very good caddy.
PAN on them as they walk past Oddjob.
Goldfinger
(shrugging at
Oddjob)
Golf is not yet the national game of Korea, eh?
Oddjob waits until they are some distance away then follows.

Goldfinger
This meeting is not a coincidence, eh?

Bond
Part of a smelt of six hundred.
Goldfinger
They vanished in 1944.
Bond
When the Nazis were on the run.
Goldfinger
And you have access to more?
Bond
Yes, from the same source.
Goldfinger
Interesting.
WIDE ANGLE
They approach a teeing ground where a marker says
"17."
Goldfinger
Two holes to go.
Bond
Yes, and all square.
Bond plants his ball on a tee.
Goldfinger
Then you have no objection to increasing the stakes?
Bond
(getting into
putting
position)
No. What do you have in
mind?
INTERCUT - GOLDFINGER AND BOND
Goldfinger
The bar of gold you have with you, naturally.
Bond

It's worth five thousand pounds.
Goldfinger
(laughing it off)
Oh, I'll stake the cash equivalent.
Bond
Naturally.

down at his ball)
WIDE ANGLE
Bond raises his club to swing.
Goldfinger

Strict rules of golf?
BOND
freezes in mid-stroke and lowers the club.
Bond
But of course.
GOLDFINGER
nods and sways from side to side.
WIDE ANGLE
Bond swings at the ball, striking it cleanly across the
fairway.
Goldfinger watches it go.
So does Oddjob.
BOND'S POV - THE FAIRWAY
The ball sails far away then lands.
[END OF REEL 3. START REEL 4.]
Smiling tightly, Bond crosses Goldfinger, who takes a club from
Oddjob and approaches the tee. Bond
watches.
Goldfinger sets his ball down and readies himself. In a reverse angle on his legs, his club
hits the ball squarely and the ball flies into the distance.
Goldfinger watches it go.
So does Bond, who steps forward grinning.
AN AREA OF ROUGH
Goldfinger's ball sails across an area of rough and lands near
some trees.
BOND AND GOLDFINGER

Goldfinger
Uh-huh.

Good.
He holds his hand out.
Oddjob passes him a club.
BOND AND HAWKER
Bond stops searching and looks up at Goldfinger. Hawker walks up.
Hawker
If that's his original ball, I'm Arnold Palmer.
Bond
'Tisn't.
Hawker
How do you know?
Bond
I'm standing on it.
Hawker looks down. Bond
raises his foot revealing the ball.
Hawker

Why you crafty old...
Hawker starts to reach down.
Bond
Leave it.
Bond holds up the other ball.
Hawker

Bond
Yes. Slazenger Seven.

Goldfinger
Um-hmm, play it.
Bond taps his ball into the cup.
Goldfinger walks up to his ball.
Goldfinger

Bond
That's right.
Goldfinger leans over with his club. In an angle on his legs, he hits the ball and it rolls into the
cup.
Bond, hand in his pocket, looks up at him.
Goldfinger rises haughtily and grins.
Bond glances back at Hawker then, as we TILT DOWN, takes his
hand from his pocket. We glimpse the
hidden ball in his hand.
He reaches into the cup and withdraws two balls. TILT BACK UP to his face.
Bond

One to go. That'll be
the clincher.
Goldfinger
Fine.
Bond tosses a ball to Goldfinger, who reaches out gracefully

I'll have to sink this to have the game, right?
Bond putts. The ball
curves away from the hole, just missing it.
Bond
Yaagh! You win,
Goldfinger.
Goldfinger
It seems I am too good for you.
Bond reaches into the cup and takes out both balls. He looks at one.
Bond
Hmm. You play a
Slazenger One, don't you?
Goldfinger, who has been leaning triumphantly on his club,
approaches.
Goldfinger
Yes. Why?
Bond
(holding
Goldfinger's
ball up)
This is a Slazenger Seven.
Goldfinger takes it.
Bond holds up the other ball.
Bond
Here's my Penfold Hearts.
Goldfinger looks in shock at the ball in his hand.
Bond
You must have played the wrong ball somewhere on the eighteenth
fairway. We are playing strict rules,
so I'm afraid you lose the hole and the match.
Goldfinger glares up at Oddjob. Oddjob looks back without expression.
Goldfinger hurls his ball to the ground and walks off as Bond

Goldfinger.
Oh, nothing, Mister Bond.
I own the club.
Goldfinger wipes his eye, opens the car door, gets in and
lowers a tabletop.
Goldfinger
I assume you want the check made out to cash.
Bond
That would be perfectly satisfactory.
Goldfinger looks at him with a sneer.
ODDJOB
PAN on him and he returns to the car straightening his
hat. He passes behind the car to the

tears a check from his checkbook and hands it to Bond.
Goldfinger
Goodbye, Mister Bond.
Goldfinger shuts his door as Oddjob gets in behind the

Look at them!

A double blow-out! I've
never seen one of these before.

Tilly
How could new tires...?
Bond
Defect of some kind, most likely.
(sits on the edge
of
her trunk)
Anyway, I'm so glad that it's only the car and not you. You don't look like the sort of girl who
should be ditched.
Tilly
Never mind that. Please
take me to the nearest garage.
Bond
Certainly.
She crosses back to the driver's side and grabs her
handbag. Bond follows.

strictly forbidden"). He quickly
finds himself in a dead-end, blocked by another building. He looks back desperately.

Goldfinger
I make six trips a year to the continent in the Rolls Royce,
Mister Ling...

Bond looks downward in satisfaction. He has solved his case.
He looks again through the louvers, then suddenly looks to the side.
BOND'S POV - THE FACTORY ENTRANCE
Ling exits the factory then leans against a railing as
Goldfinger follows.
Ling
Perhaps it would be wiser to suspend your other activities.
Goldfinger
Now, Mister Ling, please assure your principals Operation
Grand Slam will have my undivided attention.
Goldfinger leads him down a few steps and around a corner of

- A Mercedes pulls up and stops, its yellow headlight right in
our face.
ANGLE ON THE MERCEDES
Oddjob alights from the back seat, other Koreans following with
their guns. Oddjob crosses to the
crashed Aston-Martin; a pillar lays atop it.
He looks up.
ODDJOB'S POV - A MIRROR
It is mounted above them and reflects the Aston-Martin and
Oddjob grinning.
ODDJOB
turns aside.
The mirror
shows him moving to the Aston-Martin's driver's door.
CLOSER ANGLE
Oddjob opens the door.
Bond's head falls backwards from the seat, unconscious.
DISSOLVE
TO:
INT. LASER ROOM - NIGHT
Bond lies in darkness on his back on a metal table. He comes to. DOLLY BACK as he struggles to rise. He finds his arms and legs are tied to the table.
The lights come on with a swooshing sound. Bond looks to one side.
Goldfinger (O.S.)
Good evening, double-o-seven.
Bond looks the other way.
WIDE ANGLE - THE LASER ROOM
The table is in the middle of the room. A laser gun is aimed just behind Bond's
head.
Beyond him, stairs lead up to a control room. Goldfinger walks down the stairs, wearing a
gold dinner jacket, a shirt with gold buttons and a black bow-tie. Behind him are LING, KISCH, MELLINGER and three guards.
Bond
My name is James Bond.
Goldfinger
(slipping his hands
into his pockets)
And members of your curious profession are few in number.
CLOSER ANGLE
Goldfinger approaches the table.
Goldfinger
You have been recognized ‑- let's say by one of your
opposite numbers, who is also licensed to kill. ‑- Oh, that interesting
car of yours!
PAN on Goldfinger as he moves to the right. The laser gun comes into view. Goldfinger wipes his eye and laughs.
Goldfinger
I, too, have a new toy, but considerably more practical.
BOND
glances up at the laser gun.
Goldfinger (O.S.)
You are looking at an industrial laser...
BOND'S POV - THE LASER GUN
Goldfinger (O.S.)
... which emits an extraordinary light, not to be found in
nature.
Goldfinger
looks down at him and paces back past the table.
Goldfinger
It can project a spot on the moon ‑- or, at closer range,
cut through solid metal. I will show
you.
Goldfinger turns and snaps his fingers at the control room.
Delsing flips a switch as Kisch, Ling and Wong look on.
The barrel of the laser gun moves down Bond's torso. He raises himself onto his elbows and looks
at it.
TILT UP to show its blue coils gleaming as it keeps moving
downwards.
LONG SHOT - THE LASER ROOM
The barrel of the laser gun comes to rest, aiming between
Bond's legs. Suddenly the laser light
goes on, gleaming red.
Bond looks down at it.
The laser beam starts cutting the outer edge of the tabletop,
which is gold-coloured.
Goldfinger looks down smiling.
Bond looks down not smiling.
The laser beam continues burning through the table-top.
INTERCUT - BOND AND GOLDFINGER
Goldfinger
(pointing to the
table-top)
This is gold, Mister Bond.
All my life I've been in love with its colour, its brilliance, its
divine heaviness.
Bond looks up at Goldfinger then down at his legs.
The laser beam keeps cutting through the table-top, moving
toward Bond's crotch.
Goldfinger
I welcome any enterprise which will increase my stock, which is
considerable.
Bond looks at Goldfinger then down at his crotch again.
The laser beam keeps cutting through the table-top.
Bond
I think you've made your point, Goldfinger. Thank you for the demonstration.
Goldfinger
(studying the beam)
Choose your next witticism carefully, Mister Bond. It may be your last.
The laser beam continues cutting upwards. Bond looks at it then up at Goldfinger.
Goldfinger
The purpose of our two previous encounters is now very clear to
me. I do not intend to be distracted by
another. Good-night, Mister Bond.
Goldfinger turns away.
Bond looks from Goldfinger to a spot between his legs. The laser beam keeps cutting upwards toward
his crotch.
WIDE SHOT
Bond lies in f.g. on the table as Goldfinger starts walking up
the steps to the control booth, his left hand in his pocket.
Bond
Do you expect me to talk?
GOLDFINGER
stops on the steps and looks down, both hands in his pockets.
Goldfinger
No, Mister Bond. I
expect you to die!
INTERCUT - BOND AND GOLDFINGER
Bond looks up at him.
Goldfinger continues up the steps.
Goldfinger
There is nothing you can talk to me about that I don't already
know.
Bond looks at the laser beam.
It keeps cutting through the table-top.
Bond tries to think of something to say.
IN THE CONTROL BOOTH
Goldfinger talks animatedly to Ling. Kisch and Delsing look on.
BOND
looks down at the laser beam.
It keeps cutting upwards toward his crotch. He turns sideways.
Bond
(calling)
You're forgetting one thing!
Goldfinger and Ling turn to look at him.
Bond
If I fail to report, double-o-eight replaces me!
Goldfinger
I trust he will be more successful!
Goldfinger touches Ling's arm and they turn away.
Bond looks down at the laser beam again. It keeps cutting toward his crotch.
Bond
Well, he knows what I know!
Goldfinger looks back.
Goldfinger
You know nothing, Mister Bond!
Bond
Operation Grand Slam, for instance!
GOLDFINGER AND LING
Ling freezes and looks at Bond but Goldfinger keeps his
cool. He watches Bond and the laser
beam about to slice into him.
Goldfinger steps forward smirking as Ling looks imploringly at him.
Bond looks up at Goldfinger.
The laser beam keeps cutting.
Bond looks at Goldfinger again.
Goldfinger stands consulting with Ling and Kisch.
Bond looks again at the tabletop. The beam keeps cutting.
Goldfinger continues consulting with the others.
Bond looks down at the beam.
It is almost at his crotch. Bond
looks up.
WIDE ANGLE
Bond in f.g. again, Goldfinger beyond in the control room. Goldfinger turns to Bond.
Goldfinger
Two words you may have overheard which cannot possibly have any
significance to you or anyone in your organization.
As Goldfinger talks, Bond looks in exasperation at the
approaching laser beam. It slices
easily through the metal. Goldfinger
steps forward smugly.
Bond
Can you afford to take that chance?
Goldfinger hesitates.
Bond looks over at him, then back at the table. The beam keeps cutting.
Bond looks at Goldfinger again. Goldfinger smiles, relenting.
He turns back and snaps his fingers (soundlessly) at his assistants.
EXTREME LONG SHOT
The laser beam switches off as Kisch walks down the steps from
the control room.
BOND
looks up at the laser gun then down at his legs.
Goldfinger
You are quite right, Mister Bond. You are worth more to me alive.
WIDE ANGLE
As Bond lies in f.g. and Goldfinger looks on, Kisch approaches
the table.
Bond looks up at Kisch, then Goldfinger, then Kisch. Kisch raises a large pistol and points it at
Bond's chest.
Goldfinger looks on smugly as Kisch aims.
Kisch fires the pistol; it makes a thumping sound. Bond's head lowers to the tabletop.
Goldfinger looks on with even greater smugness.
LONG SHOT
We see the entire tableau ‑- Bond unconscious, Kisch
beside him and Goldfinger looking on.
FADE

FADE IN:
INT. JET PLANE - FLYING - DAY
Bond lies sleeping in a seat.
We hear the hum of the engines.
He comes to and looks up, surprised.

She is out-of-focus, then comes into focus peering at him. She smiles.
INTERCUT - BOND AND PUSSY
Bond
Who are you?
Pussy
My name is Pussy Galore.
Bond
I must be dreaming.
Pussy looks down at him.
Bond looks back at her. She

Bond feels his chest.
Bond
I thought I'd wake up dead.
Pussy
(holding up a
pistol)
Tranquilizer gun.
Knockout shot.
Bond
I see. Well, I 'm
delighted to be here.
DOLLY BACK as Pussy walks away.
Bond
And, uh, by the way: where is here?
Pussy sets the pistol down and looks out the window.
Pussy
Thirty-five thousand feet, flying south-west over Newfoundland.
Bond
Well, that explains the humming.
DOLLY BACK IN.
Pussy
The humming means you're on Mister Goldfinger's Jet-Star
heading for Baltimore. And you're his
guest.
Bond
I'm honoured. I never
realized he enjoyed my company that much.
Pussy
I don't suppose it will be all fun and games.
(calling off)
Mei Li!
REVERSE ANGLE
An Oriental stewardess in a gold top ‑- MEI LI ‑-
steps toward Bond.
Mei Li
Can I do something for you, Mister Bond?
BOND AND PUSSY
Bond
Uh, just a drink. A
martini, shaken, not stirred.
Mei Li bows to him and walks off. Bond looks at her butt then swivels in his chair to face Pussy.
Bond
Won't you join me?
Pussy
Not on duty. I'm Mister
Goldfinger's personal pilot.
Bond
You are? And, uh, just
how personal is that?
Pussy
(glaring back at
him)
I'm a damned good pilot.
Period.
Bond
Well, that's good news.
And by the way, where is our host?
Pussy
He flew on ahead.
PAN OVER from Bond to include Mei Li approaching him with a
golden cup on a tray. Bond takes the
cup.
Bond
Thank you.
Mei Li turns away. Bond
looks at her butt again then faces forward and raises his drink.
Pussy looks at a clipboard.
Bond sips his drink.
Bond
Well, here's to Operation Grand Slam.
Pussy, ignoring him, puts the clipboard away. Bond watches her. Pussy opens the door to the cabin.
Bond
This should be a memorable flight.
Pussy
(turning to him)
You can turn off the charm.
I'm immune.
Bond sips his drink then swivels again in his chair, looking
back at Mei Li. She stands in b.g. at
the bar.

SYDNEY. Pussy picks up a microphone.
Pussy
(speaking into the
mic)
We'll be landing in Baltimore...
IN THE CABIN
Bond hears Pussy's voice over a speaker. He holds a brandy snifter. Mei Li stands in b.g.
Pussy
(continuing)
... our port of entry into the United States, in fifty-five
minutes.
Bond rises. DOLLY IN as
he walks to Mei Li.
Bond
Mei Li, I would like to arrive more, uh, appropriately dressed.
(he sits on a
barstool)
Did any of my luggage survive with me?
She starts to reach down.
Bond
Ah!
He reaches in front of her and picks up his suitcase.
Bond
And, uh, my attaché case?
Mei Li
Black attaché case damaged when examined. So sorry.
Bond
Apologies quite unnecessary.
Bond rises. Mei Li
gestures ahead of him. He opens a
padded door to the washroom and goes inside.
IN THE WASHROOM
Bond shuts the door behind him.
IN THE COCKPIT
Sydney is reading a magazine.
A red light behind her blinks with a beeping sound.
Pussy
Sydney, tell Mei Li to keep an eye on him.
Sydney sets down her magazine, removes her headphones and
rises.
IN THE WASHROOM
Bond opens his suitcase and takes out a shaving kit. He sets it by the sink.
Then he takes out a gray suit on a hanger, He closes the suitcase and reaches up to
hang the suit on a hook.
CLOSER
Bond notices a wall clock.
STILL CLOSER
There is a peephole in it.
INT. CABIN - SAME TIME
Mei Li looks through a peephole in the washroom door.
IN THE WASHROOM
Bond leans back against the wall, then takes his suit and hangs
it over the clock.
IN THE CABIN
Mei Li backs away, her view blocked. She moves to a gold portal and opens it, revealing another
peephole. She looks through it.
IN THE WASHROOM
Bond opens a cabinet mirror and looks behind it.
He holds his hand in front of the mirror and sees it through
the back of the mirror.
Bond turns, picks up his suitcase and opens it so that the lid
blocks the view through the mirror.
IN THE CABIN
Mei Lei backs away, her view blocked again.
IN THE WASHROOM
Bond takes a razor from his shaving kit.
He unscrews the handle, drops a mini-Homer device into his hand
and primes it. It beeps. He reaches down, slides back the heel of his
shoe, inserts the device into a slot and closes the heel.
Bond rises, shutting his suitcase and picking up a can of
shaving cream.
IN THE CABIN
Mei Li looks through the peephole again.
IN THE WASHROOM
Bond has lathered his face.
He picks up the shaving cream can, aims it at the mirror and squirts a
circle of soap on it.
IN THE CABIN
Mei Li backs up, thwarted again, and shuts the portal.

Mei Li dusts a tabletop.
Bond emerges from the washroom behind her, wearing a gray suit and
vest. DOLLY BACK as he looks ahead at
Pussy.
Pussy
We'll be landing in twenty minutes. Do you want to play it easy...
(she aims a
revolver
at him)
... or the hard way?
And this isn't a tranquilizer.
DOLLY BACK to include Pussy as Bond walks up to her.
Bond
Uh, Pussy, you know a lot more about planes than guns.
Pussy looks back at him.
Bond
That's a Smith and Wesson forty-five. If you fire it at this close range, the bullet will pass through
me and the fuselage like a blowtorch through butter. The cabin will depressurize and we'll both be sucked into outer
space together.
(he sits in his
swivel chair)
But if that's how you want to enter the United States, you're
welcome. As for me ‑- I, uh,
prefer the easier way.
Pussy
(looking down at
him)
That's very sensible.
Bond
Well, besides, there's always so much going on around Mister
Goldfinger. Oh, I wouldn't dream of not
accepting his ‑- uh, hospitality.
Pussy approaches him.
Pussy
He'll be very glad to see you, too.
Bond looks up at her.
She rubs the barrel of the revolver under his chin.
Pussy
You like close shaves, don't you?
She turns away. Bond
picks up his snifter and sips.

It's about double-o-seven, sir. We picked up his Homer signal.
It's monitored into Friendship Airport, Baltimore, where he's just
landed.
INTERCUT - "M" AND FELIX
"M"
Baltimore! Nice of him
to let us know. Last we heard, he was

Felix
He came in on a private jet ex Geneva, registered to our old
friend Auric Goldfinger.
"M"
I'm glad he's making progress.
Felix
Yes, sir.
"M"
Keep an eye on him for us.
Felix
Their flight plan gives Blue Grass Field, Kentucky as their
final destination.
"M"
Don't charge in on him and spoil anything, will you? He's evidently well on top at the moment.

Do mind you step, captain.
Pussy pulls back her hand and lifts the coat to reveal she
holds a revolver.
Pussy
Just keep playing it easy.
Bond walks on ahead as Pussy turns to Mei Li. (This time Pussy pronounces her last name
"lie" instead of "lee.")
Pussy
Mei Li, will you see everything's arranged for Mister
Goldfinger?
Mei Li
Of course.
Bond strolls to the entrance to the hangar and looks

BOND'S POV - PUSSY'S FLYING CIRCUS
Five planes fly in a V-formation.
Bond keeps looking up.
The planes now fly in a circle.
Pussy arrives at Bond's side.
Bond
Talented chaps.
Pussy
They should be. I
trained them. Come on.
TRUCK with them as they walk alongside the hangar.
Bond
You're a woman of many parts, Pussy. I believe that the bourbon and branch water's rather splendid
here in Kentucky. Now that we're off

Gentlemen!
Men all over the room stop what they're doing and look at him.
Midnight
Goldfinger, why weren't we told that New York and the West
Coast were in on this?
Laurence
Look who's talking!
TRACK BACK on Goldfinger as he walks past Strap and Solo.
Strap
I do not do business with Chicago!
Solo
I thought we had a private business deal to settle. Now I find I'm attending a hoods'
convention!
Goldfinger stops at the pool table.
Strap
Goldfinger, I made a delivery.
Where is my money?
Laurence
I made a delivery, too.
Goldfinger
(leaning on the
pool
table)
You all made the deliveries we contracted for.
Midnight
And you owe me one million bucks.
Goldfinger
I owe each of you a million ‑- in gold bullion.
Strap
So pay.
Goldfinger rolls a ball across the table.
Goldfinger
Gentlemen, you can have the million today...
(he picks up
another
ball then sets it
down for emphasis)
... or ten millions tomorrow!
Strap
Did you say ten million?
Goldfinger
As soon as my bank opens in the morning.
Solo
Banks don't open on Sunday.
Goldfinger
My bank will!
Goldfinger laughs. TILT
DOWN as he reaches under the pool table and flips a switch. The sound of a motor humming begins and the
pool table starts moving.
INTERCUT - AROUND THE ROOM
The pool table revolves counter-clockwise and the tabletop
inverts to reveal a console.
Strap
What's with that trick pool table?
Goldfinger crosses to the console as the table stops moving and
the humming ends.
He reaches out and turns three white dials. Indicator lights go on and another humming
sound starts.
[END OF REEL 7. START REEL 8.]
A large wood panel lowers over the windows.
Laurence
Cover him!
Strap
Hey, cover those doors!
Solo
Turn those lights back on!
Three gangsters back up in the dark.
A large aerial photograph rises from the floor and interior
lights go on.
Goldfinger
There is no cause for alarm, gentlemen.
He turns a black knob.
The humming sound increases. He
looks up.
The large photograph flattens against the wall as side panels
come into place beside it.
Laurence (O.S.)
I don't like being cooped up like this. ‑- What's that
map doing there?
Goldfinger takes a pool cue from a rack by the table. PAN on him as he crosses to the aerial
photo. It depicts Fort Knox and the
surrounding area.
Goldfinger
(pointing with the
cue)
This is my bank. The
gold depository at Fort Knox, gentlemen.
In its vaults are fifteen billion dollars ‑- the entire gold
supply of the United States.
Strap
(laughing)
Knock off Fort Knox?!
The gangsters laugh at him.
Laurence
Got a key or somethin'?
Goldfinger
Of a kind.
PAN on him as he walks back to the console.
Solo
There are thirty-five thousand troops stationed around there.
Goldfinger
(setting down the
cue)
Forty-one thousand.
Midnight
And who's going to say "boo" to them, Goldfinger?
Goldfinger turns the white dials again and the humming sound
resumes.
The bar starts to swivel around and the centre of the floor
retracts, revealing a hidden model of Fort Knox. The gangsters panic.
Midnight
Hey, what's going on here?!
Another Gangster
Hey, what is this?!
Another Gangster
It's the floor!
ANOTHER GANGSTER
Say, what is this, a merry-go-round?!
The bar swivels into a new position. Goldfinger looks off. A
lighting apparatus lowers from the ceiling above the model. The model starts to rise.
The gangsters look at it in amazement. Goldfinger approaches the model holding his
pool cue.
Goldfinger
Man has climbed Mount Everest.
Gone to the bottom of the ocean.
He has fired rockets to the moon.
Split the atom. Achieved
miracles...
(the humming stops)
... in every field of human endeavor ‑- except crime!
IN BOND'S CELL
Bond paces to the door.
He looks out through the bars. A
Korean guard sits outside watching him.
Bond waves to him. The
guard looks back expressionless.
Bond turns, paces to the far end of the cell and returns to the
bars.
The guard sits staring at him.
Bond waves to him again and turns away.
The guard continues to watch expressionless.
Bond paces to the bars again and smiles at the guard. The guard stares back. Bond winks at him. The guard stares back.
Bond smiles and suddenly lowers himself below the window.
The guard keeps looking.
Bond is no longer visible.
THE GUARD
gets up, walks to the door and looks through the bars. The cell appears empty.
He takes out a gun, unlocks the door and kicks it open.
IN THE CELL
The door slams against the inner wall. The guard walks in. Bond hides above him in the rafters.
The guard looks around, seeing an empty cell.
UPWARD ANGLE ON THE GUARD
Bond, above him, braces himself.
BOND
suddenly jumps down. He
grabs the guard from behind. They
tussle and fall to the floor.
They struggle for the gun.
Bond slams the guard's hand against the bed frame and the gun falls.
The guard shoves Bond against the wall. Bond kicks him under the chin and the guard
falls flat on his back.
ZIP PAN over to the gun under the cot. Bond takes the gun and his jacket and backs
out of the cell as the guard lies unconscious in f.g.
IN THE CORRIDOR
Bond shuts the cell door behind him, lays the key on a pile of
rags and walks down the corridor putting on his jacket.
As he nears the end of the corridor, we see a basement control
room ahead containing a hydraulic lift and we hear voices from above:
Goldfinger (O.S.)
The underworld will rock with applause for centuries.
Midnight (O.S.)
Cut the commercial.
Strap (O.S.)
Yeah, get to the point!
IN THE RUMPUS ROOM
Seven of the gangsters are lined up on the platform facing
Goldfinger. He holds the pool cue and
approaches Solo.
Solo
You're wasting my time, Goldfinger. The depository is impregnable.
Strap
(steps forward
counting
on his fingers)
Look, the joint is bomb-proof, electrified, lousy with machine
guns, tear gas ‑-
Goldfinger
Bear with me, please!
Fort Knox is a bank, like any other.
Larger, better protected perhaps, but nonetheless a bank!
PAN OVER as he points the pool cue at the model.
Goldfinger
It can be, I think the expression is, blown.
ZOOM IN on the model.
Bond's eyes look out through windows in the replica of Fort Knox.
Goldfinger (O.S.)
My plan is foolproof, gentlemen.
UNDER THE MODEL
Bond stands on the hydraulic platform. He jumps down, looks around, tears a piece
of paper from a rolled-up document and grabs a pencil.
He runs back under the model and looks through it again. Meanwhile we hear Goldfinger continue:
Goldfinger (O.S.)
I call it Operation Grand Slam. I have devoted fifteen years of my life to it. Every detail has been scrupulously
prepared. Every eventuality has been
considered. We'll operate on a
split-second schedule. Your
organization, Mister Midnight, brought in a consignment of these canisters...
IN THE RUMPUS ROOM
Goldfinger holds up a gold canister the size of a wine bottle.
Goldfinger
... across the Canadian border. They contain Delta Nine.
UNDER THE MODEL
Bond prepares to write on the piece of paper.
IN THE RUMPUS ROOM
Midnight
Delta Nine? What's
that?
Goldfinger
(gesturing
emphatically)
An invisible nerve gas which disperses fifteen minutes after
inducing complete unconsciousness for twenty-four hours!
Goldfinger hands the canister to one of the gangsters and paces
past them.
Goldfinger
Tomorrow at dawn, the Flying Circus of my personal pilot, Miss
Pussy Galore...
UNDER THE MODEL
GOLDFINGER (O.S.)
... will spray it into the atmosphere!
Bond starts writing.
PAN OVER to the piece of paper.
He writes:
"007 to CIA
AERIAL NERVE GAS
PRECEDES DAWN RAID
FORT KNOX
TOMORROW"
Goldfinger (O.S.)
Once the population, including the military, has been
immobilized, my task...
IN THE RUMPUS ROOM
Goldfinger
... force, which Mr. Strap and his people smuggled across the
Rio Grande from Mexico, will approach Fort Knox in motorized equipment along
Bullion Boulevard...
He points to the model with the pool cue.
Goldfinger
... which runs past the
depository here, and intersects with Gold Vault Road. This fence surrounding the depository, as Mister Strap reminded
us, is electrified. It will be dynamited. My task force will then move to the main entrance
and demolish it.
Solo
How, may I ask?
Goldfinger
You made that possible, Mister Solo, by arranging, through your
considerable influence in shipping circles, to bring through customs
uninspected a consignment labeled machine parts. All that will then remain is to descend to the vaults where the
bullion is stored.
Solo
I've heard enough.
Strap
Let him finish.
Solo
(interrupting)
If you have no objection...
(to Goldfinger)
... I'll take my money now.
Strap
What's the matter, Solo?
Too big for you to handle?
Goldfinger looks over at other gangsters. They look back at him. He looks at another group of gangsters. They look back.
Under the model, Bond watches.
Goldfinger
Gentlemen, we must respect Mister Solo's decision. Please excuse me for a few minutes while I
take care of him. Make yourselves
comfortable.
Goldfinger leads Solo toward the door.
UNDER THE MODEL
Bond takes the Homer from his heel, folds the paper around it
and slips it into his pocket.
He looks through the model again. He hears general hubbub from the gangsters, and a few clear
words:
FIRST GANGSTER
How do we get it out?
Second Gangster
That's the bit I want to hear.
Third Gangster
Yeah, and it had better be good.
TILT DOWN to Bond's feet.
Suddenly a pair of hands grab his ankles and yank on them. He falls face-down onto the platform.
The hands pull him back and hurl him against a wall. He turns around and suddenly stops.
His assailant is Pussy.
She glares at him with her hands on her hips.
Bond
Pussy! Well, who taught
you judo?
She holds her hand out.
DOLLY BACK as she steps forward; a guard crosses behind her.
Pussy
The gun you took.
Bond
Oh, the gun. The gun,
of course.
He takes it from his pocket and hands it to her
handle-first. She motions to him to go
back down the corridor. He starts
walking. She hands the gun to one of
the guards.
Bond
We must have a few fast falls together sometime.
ANGLE ON THE BASEMENT CONTROL ROOM
Kisch steps forward, presses a button and sliding armoured
doors glide shut.
IN THE BASEMENT CONTROL ROOM
DOLLY after Kisch turns to a control panel and switches on two
t.v. monitors. They show different
angles on the rumpus room.
IN THE RUMPUS ROOM
Gangsters hover around the model.
Midnight
Hey, Strap, y'know, if he's got the right answers, you and me
don't even have to be there. The boys
can handle everything.
IN THE BASEMENT CONTROL ROOM
Kisch dons a gas mask.
Then he presses a button on a control panel. Indicator lights go on.
ON ONE OF THE MONITORS
We see the fireplace hood shut over the grate and some lights
go off.
IN THE RUMPUS ROOMS
The gangsters react with panic.
Gangster
Hey, they closed up the fireplace!
PAN over to the wall-sized photo. A shielding lowers over it, sealing the room.
Another Gangster
I don't like this!
Four teargas canisters rise from a console table.
Midnight
What's goin' on here?
IN THE BASEMENT CONTROL ROOM
Kisch turns a switch.
THE TEARGAS CANISTERS
DOLLY IN as they start hissing.
WIDER ANGLE
Blue lights start flashing. The gangsters choke and run around.
Midnight
The gas!
Gangsters fall to the ground.
The canisters keep hissing.
The last of the gangsters drop to the ground.
EXT. PLANTATION HOUSE - DAY
A Korean guard loads bars of gold into the trunk of a car. DOLLY BACK to show it is a Cadillac.
Goldfinger and Solo emerge through the front doorway of the
house. Another guard follows behind
them with a briefcase and overcoat.
Goldfinger
Such a pity you did not choose to remain with the others,
Mister Solo. However...
The guard closes the trunk.
Solo glances up. Goldfinger
notices and looks back.
Pussy walks up to them with Bond. Bond takes his hand from his pocket, holding the piece of paper
with the Homer.
Goldfinger
Ah, Mister Bond. I
thought you were resting in your quarters.
FOUR-SHOT
Solo, Goldfinger, Pussy and Bond.
Bond
Oh, they are delightful, but it's much too nice to stay
indoors. I ran into Miss Galore and she
suggested that we join you.
Goldfinger
(turning between
the
two men)
Mister Solo, Mister Bond, another of my distinguished guests.
Solo
Hello.
Bond
Leaving us so soon, Mister Solo?
Goldfinger
Unfortunately, he has a pressing engagement.
Solo
Yeah. I'd like to get
started, Goldfinger.
He calls behind him to the guard.
Solo
Boy!
Solo approaches the car followed by the guard.
Bond
Ah, when you gotta go, you gotta go.
Solo opens the passenger door.
Bond slips the paper into his pocket.
Goldfinger
My plane will get you to New York on time. With you excess luggage.
(he laughs)
Solo takes the briefcase and overcoat from the guard and gets
into the car.
Bond
(closing the door)
Allow me.
Oddjob approaches from b.g.
Goldfinger
My chauffeur's an excellent driver. You will be at the airport in a few minutes.
Oddjob gets in behind the wheel.
Goldfinger
Goodbye, Mister Solo.
Some other time, perhaps...
Bond
(leaning forward)
Happy landings, old boy.
PAN on the car as it drives off.
[END OF REEL 8. START REEL 9.]
THREE-SHOT
Goldfinger, Pussy and Bond.
Pussy
I found him under the model.
Goldfinger looks at Bond.
Bond looks back.
Bond
Operation Grand Slam. I
did enjoy your briefing.
Goldfinger looks back at Bond.
Bond looks back at Goldfinger.
Goldfinger
(grins slightly)
So did I.
PAN on him as he walks off.
Bond and Pussy watch him go.
Goldfinger heads for the stables.
EXT. STREET - DAY
PAN on Oddjob's Cadillac as it drives by.
OUTSIDE COLONEL SANDERS'
Johnnie again sits in the driver's seat of the
Thunderbird. He hears the scope beeping
and looks at it.
The beep indicator is moving.
He gets out of the car and honks the horn. Felix hurries out of the restaurant eating.
Johnnie
He's on the move!
Felix takes another bite and heads for the car.
Johnnie backs the car up.
Felix rushes into the passenger seat and they take off.
THE CADILLAC
turns a corner at "Joe's Drive-In" and heads up
another street.
THE THUNDERBIRD
follows up the same street.
IN THE THUNDERBIRD
Felix looks at the scope.
The beep indicator moves upwards.
Felix
Slow down. Don't crowd
him.
The Thunderbird keeps following.
THE CADILLAC
cruises along. Solo
sits impassively in the back seat as Oddjob drives.
The Cadillac passes under bridge where a sign reads,
"INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT." Then
it passes a sign at the side of the road that reads, "AIRPORT."
Solo
(looking back)
Are you blind or something?
You missed the turn!
Oddjob looks purposefully ahead.
ON A SIDE ROAD
The Cadillac rounds a corner.
It stops at the side of the road.
Solo, puzzled, looks back.
Oddjob picks up a pistol with a silencer and aims it at him.
Solo looks forward again and sees the gun. His eyes open wide in shock.
Oddjob shoots him in the chest. Solo falls back against his seat then drops out of view.
Oddjob peers down at him smugly.
THE CADILLAC
drives forward again.
IN THE THUNDERBIRD
Felix studies the scope.
Felix
Hmm. He turned to the
right just ahead here somewhere.
The Thunderbird stops, backs up and heads in a different
direction.
ODDJOB
drives serenely.
ANGLE ON THE STREET
The Cadillac races by under a bridge.
IN THE THUNDERBIRD
The beeping continues.
Johnnie
(glancing at the
scope)
Where's this old pal of yours heading?
Felix
Ten'll get you one, it's a drink or a dame.
Johnnie looks at him and smiles.
ANGLE ON THE STREET
The Thunderbird continues under the same bridge.
IN THE CADILLAC
Oddjob keeps driving serenely.
ANGLE ON THE STREET
He turns into a scrap yard where scrap metal is piled into
pyramids. A sign on the wall reads,
"ATLANTIC IRON & METAL CO."
IN THE SCRAP YARD
Oddjob pulls to a stop, gets out of the Cadillac and walks
away.
Just then grab hooks descend onto the car. They surround the roof, gripping the car,
and raise it into the air.
The hooks swing the car overhead then drop it into a
car-crushing machine. The flanges of
the machine start to close on the car.
SERIES OF SHOTS
The machine's hydraulics compress the car into a foot-square
cube.
The flanges retract and a gateway opens. A metal arm pushes the cube out through the
gateway.
An electromagnet snags the cube from above. It lifts the cube into the air then lowers
it into the back of Oddjob's blue pickup truck as Oddjob (looking thinner)
approaches the truck.
Oddjob gets in behind the wheel and glances back as the cargo
is lowered into place.
Oddjob drives away.
IN THE THUNDERBIRD
Felix tries adjusting the controls of the scope but the beeping
has stopped.
Felix
Dead.
Johnnie
Mechanical failure maybe.
Felix
Unless he switched it off.
Felix keeps trying to adjust the scope.
Johnnie
Why would he do that?
Felix
Drive to the farm. It's
all we can do.
Johnnie
Right.
PAN on the Thunderbird as it drives on. Then the pickup truck comes down the other
side of the road. PAN on it into the
other direction.
DISSOLVE
TO:
EXT. PATIO OF GOLDFINGER'S PLANTATION HOUSE - DAY
Pussy sits at a table with Goldfinger. A SERVANT sets mint juleps in front of them.
Pussy
Thank you.
The servant moves off.
DOLLY in to a tighter two-shot of Pussy and Goldfinger.
Goldfinger
Your share of Operation Grand Slam will make you a very rich
woman, my dear.
Pussy
Why else would I be in it, Mister Goldfinger?
She reaches for her glass.
He strokes her hand.
Goldfinger
You'll retire to England, I suppose?
He continues stroking her hand.
Pussy
No. I've spotted a
little island in the Bahamas. I'll hang
up a sign ‑-
She takes the glass, rejecting Goldfinger's hand.
Pussy
‑- no trespassing, and go back to nature.
Goldfinger taps the tabletop, acknowledging the rejection.
THREE-SHOT
Pussy, Goldfinger and Kisch.
Kisch walks up to them.
Goldfinger
Yes, Kisch?
Kisch
Two men in a car, with binoculars.
Goldfinger
Touts looking for racing tips.
OUTSIDE THE FARM - DAY
Felix and Johnnie stand at a fence, the Thunderbird parked
behind them. Felix hands Johnnie a pair
of binoculars. Felix looks through
them.
GOLDFINGER
starts thinking.
Goldfinger
There is another possibility, however. Kisch, ask Mister Bond to join us.
Kisch walks off. DOLLY
IN on Pussy and Goldfinger.
Goldfinger
(to Pussy)
We were quite right to
spare Mister Bond's life in Switzerland.
If those gentlemen are his friends, let us convince them he needs no
assistance. For their benefit, Pussy,
let's make him as happy as possible. I
suggest you change into something more suitable.
Pussy
Certainly.
(sets her glass
down)
Business before pleasure.
He chortles. She gets
up. Her chortles again as he watches
her go, then turns to his drink.
IN BOND'S CELL
Bond sits on the cot, his back against the wall and legs in a
V-position, wearing his suit. DOLLY
BACK and PAN OVER to reveal three guards watching him.
Kisch appears in the doorway and gestures to Bond with a gun.
Kisch
He wants you.
Bond gets up.
EXT. STUD FARM - AT THE FENCE - DAY
Felix and Johnnie stand looking over the fence, Felix with the
binoculars. He pans over, seeing
something.
FELIX' POV - THE PORCH OF THE PLANTATION HOUSE
Kisch follows Bond to the porch where Goldfinger still sits at
the table.
Goldfinger
(casually,
gesturing)
Ah, Mister Bond. Sit
down, please. A mint julep? Traditional, but satisfying.
Bond
Yes, thanks.
(to the servant)
Sour mash, but not too sweet, please.
The servant nods and walks away.
Bond
(slips his hands in
his pockets)
You disappoint me, Goldfinger.
You know Operation Grand Slam simply won't work. Incidentally, Delta Nine nerve gas is fatal.
Goldfinger
You are unusually well informed, Mr. Bond.
The servant approaches with Bond's drink on a tray.
Bond
You'll kill sixty-thousand people uselessly.
(to servant)
Ah!
He takes his drink. The
servant moves off. Kisch, though,
lingers behind them.
INTERCUT - BOND AND GOLDFINGER
Goldfinger
American motorists kill that many every two years.
Bond
Yes, well, I've worked out a few statistics of my own.
(sits across the
table from him)
Fifteen billion dollars in gold bullion weighs ten thousand,
five hundred tons. Sixty men would take
twelve days to load it onto two hundred trucks. Now, at the most, you're going to have two hours before the army,
navy, air force, marines move in and make you put it back.
Goldfinger
Who mentioned anything about removing it?
Bond stops drinking.
Kisch leans back against a pillar behind them, watching.
Goldfinger
Is the julep tart enough for you?
Bond
(thinking)
You plan to break into the world's largest bank, but not to
steal anything. Why?
Goldfinger
Go on, Mister Bond.
Bond
Mister Ling, the Red Chinese agent at the factory. He's a specialist in nuclear fission. ‑-
But of course!
Goldfinger smiles back at him.
Bond
His government's given you a bomb!
Goldfinger
I prefer to call it an atomic device. It's small, but particularly dirty.
Bond
Cobalt and iodine?
Goldfinger
Precisely.
Bond
Well, if you explode it in Fort Knox, the, uh, entire gold
supply of the United States will be radioactive for... fifty-seven years!
Goldfinger
Fifty-eight, to be exact.
Bond
I apologize, Goldfinger.
It's an inspired deal. They get
what they want ‑- economic chaos in the West ‑- and the value of
your gold increases many times.
Goldfinger
I conservatively estimate ten times.
Bond
Brilliant. But the
atomic device, as you call it, is already, obviously in this country.
Goldfinger
Obviously.
Bond
But bringing it to Fort Knox, uh, undetected could be risky ‑-
very risky.
Goldfinger
Oh the contrary, Mister Bond.
The risk is all on your side. If
the authorities should attempt to locate it, who knows where it might be
exploded, eh? Perhaps the Polaris
submarine pens at New London, Cape Kennedy, near the White House... But we are
speculating idly. Operation Grand Slam
will be successful. You will be there
to see for yourself ‑- to closely for comfort, I'm afraid.
[END OF REEL 9. START REEL 10.]
Bond looks off. He sees
the blue pickup truck returning. The
truck stops in front of the house.
Goldfinger approaches it, followed by Bond.
Goldfinger
Forgive me, Mister Bond, but, uh, I must arrange to separate my
gold from the late Mister Solo.
Goldfinger approaches the pickup truck.
Bond
As you said he had a pressing engagement.
As Goldfinger reaches the back of the truck, Pussy emerges
through the front door of the house wearing casual clothes.
Goldfinger
Ah, very chic, Miss Galore.
(to Bond)
Don't you agree? Please
entertain Mister Bond for me, Pussy.
I'll join you both later.
He bangs on the back of the truck and walks off with it.
Pussy crosses behind Bond and links an arm through his.
Pussy
Well, how about it, handsome?
Don't you think it's about time we got to know each other socially?
Bond
Well, the new Miss Galore.
Where do you hide you gold knuckles in this outfit?
Pussy
(escorting him
forward)
Oh, uh, I never carry weapons after business hours.
Bond
Yeah? So you're off
duty.
Pussy
I'm completely defenseless.
Bond
(looking at her)
So am I.
Pussy laughs.
AT THE FENCE
Felix continues looking through the binoculars, Johnnie beside
him.
THROUGH THE BINOCULARS
Bond and Pussy walk casually across the grounds toward a
stable.
FELIX
lowers the binoculars and passes them to Johnnie.
Felix
That's my James.
TRACKING SHOT - BOND AND PUSSY
They walk past the stable, her arm still linked through his.
Bond
Beautiful place Goldfinger has here.
Pussy
Yes. I'm glad you're
enjoying it.
Bond
Too bad it all has to end tomorrow morning.
He faces Pussy. She
looks back at him.
Bond
He's quite mad, you know.
Pussy keeps looking at him.
Bond turns to the entrance to the stable.
Bond
Well, now. What do we
have here?
He walks inside, Pussy following.
AT THE FENCE
Felix looks through the binoculars again.
Felix
Double-o-seven seems to have the situation well in hand. Come on, I'm bushed. Let's get back to the motel.
They turn away toward the Thunderbird.
INT. STABLE - DAY - SAME TIME
Bond paces in front of Pussy.
Bond
You're quite a girl, Pussy.
Pussy
I'm strictly the outdoor type.
Bond
I'd like to think you're not in on all of this, uh, caper.
Pussy
Skip it. I'm not
interested. Let's go.
He grabs her arm and turns her back.
Bond
What would it take for you to see things my way?
Pussy
A lot more than you've got.
Bond
(looking into her
eyes)
How do you know?
Pussy
(looking back)
I don't want to know.
She turns to the door again.
He grabs her and holds her back.
Bond
Isn't it customary to grant the condemned man his last request?
Pussy
You've asked for this.
She hurls him with a Judo move. He summersaults and lands on his butt in hay. He looks back at her. She exhales.
Pussy walks up to him.
Pussy
Get up!
Bond grabs her leg and drops her into the hay.
Bond
(rising)
Certainly.
He offers a hand to help her up. She rises. She tries to
throw him but he twists her around and tosses her over his back. She lands in the hay.
She recovers and looks back, glaring.
Bond smiles, walks toward her and sits beside her.
Bond
There. Now let's both
play.
She tries to kick him but he jumps on top of her. She places her hands at his throat, trying
to push him away, but he steadily lowers himself. She turns her head to the side.
Bond's mouth comes down on hers and they kiss. Struggling at first, Pussy finally relents
and lets him kiss her. Her hands move
from his neck to his shoulders, then the flings her arms around him.
