It will be their duty to steal the Lektor from the Soviet consulate in Instanbul where Tanya works with it as a decoding clerk. In this particular movie, the plan, as detailed by SPECTRE's Director of Planning, Kronsteen, is to steal the Lektor decoding machine from the Russians by using Russian agent Tanya Romanova (who will be led to believe that she is working for Russian Intelligence) and James Bond, who will think that he's working for the British Secret Service, making the theft look like a British Intelligence operation. While the surviving fish is still totally exhausted, the wise fish will then strike. The wise fish (who represents SPECTRE) hangs back, letting the two others (who represent the West and the East) fight until one of them is killed. He likens his plan to three Siamese fighting fish in a fishbowl together. Bond's friend, Rene Mathis, comes in with some men to take Klebb away but not before she kicks Bond with her poison tipped shoe and Bond falls to the floor and presumably dies.īlofeld's overall plan is to rule the world, of course. She tries to kill him with poisoned knitting needles. At the end of the novel, Bond finds Rosa Klebb in a hotel disguised as an old woman waiting for Grant. Bond kills Grant by shooting him with Grant's concealed weapon. He shoots Bond as the train goes through a tunnel but Bond's cigarette case and book stop the round from entering his heart. Grant's weapon is a gun hidden in a book. The Spektor is booby trapped with a bomb. The decoding machine is called a "Spektor". Grant's first name is Donovan instead of Donald. Bond and Kerim Bey assassinate Krilencu when he enters through Marilyn Monroe's mouth in a poster for Niagara (1953).
Blofeld is not in the book, instead the villains' boss is a general named Gruzaboyschikov.
