A jury holdout attempts to prevent a miscarriage of justice by forcing his colleagues to reconsider the evidence.

 

I mean sir, who would pay a million dollars to have me killed?
– James Bond
Jealous husbands! Outraged chefs! Humiliated tailors! The list is endless!
– M

A duel between titans. My golden gun against your Walther PPK. Each of us with a 50-50 chance.
– Francisco Scaramanga
Six bullets to your one?
– James Bond
I only need one.
– Francisco Scaramanga

When I was a boy I was brought up in a circus. My only real friend was a huge, magnificent African bull elephant. One day, his handler mistreated him and he went berserk. Bleeding, dying, he came and found me, stood on one leg, his best trick, picked me up and put me on his back. The drunken handler came along and emptied his gun into his eye… I emptied my stage pistol into his!
– Francisco Scaramanga
An eye for an eye.
– James Bond
You see, Mr. Bond, I always thought I loved animals. Then I discovered that I enjoyed killing people even more.
– Francisco Scaramanga

You live well, Scaramanga.
– James Bond
At a million dollars a contract I can afford to, Mr Bond. You work for peanuts, a hearty well done from her Majesty the Queen and a pittance of a pension. Apart from that we are the same. To us, Mr Bond, we are the best.
– Francisco Scaramanga
There’s a useful four letter word, and you’re full of it.
– James Bond

Pistols at dawn; it’s a little old-fashioned, isn’t it?
– James Bond
That it is. But it remains the only true test for gentlemen.
– Francisco Scaramanga
On that score, I doubt you qualify. However, I accept.
– James Bond

Mr. Bond, bullets do not kill. It is the finger that pulls the trigger.
– Lazar
Exactly. I am now aiming precisely at your groin. So speak or forever hold your piece.
– James Bond

I may be small but I never forget!
– Nick-nack

Did you see who shot him?
– James Bond
No, I was in his arms. My eyes were closed.
– Saida
Well, at least he died happy.
– James Bond

Ours is the loneliest profession, Mr. Bond.
– Francisco Scaramanga

Forget the girl, she’s replaceable. Eventually, I shall find what she stole from me. Personally, I’ve got nothing against you, Mr. Bond, and to keep it that way… let us hope our paths never cross again. Please don’t try to follow me.
– Francisco Scaramanga
Your peanut-toting friend back there wouldn’t like it?
– James Bond
No, he wouldn’t.
– Francisco Scaramanga

Miss Anders… I didn’t recognize you with your clothes on.
– James Bond

I like a girl in a bikini. No concealed weapons.
– Francisco Scaramanga

Let’s drink to that. Bottom’s up!
– James Bond

I’ve come to warn you. You’re in great danger.
– Andrea Anders
I usually am.
– James Bond

Ah! I’ve lost my charm!
– Saida
Not from where I’m standing.
– James Bond

Your steam bath is ready, Monsieur Scaramanga.
– Nick-nack

Good evening. My name is Bond, James Bond. Your dancing is superb – and so are you.
– James Bond
Merci. And you are very handsome.
– Saida

I want him dead. Name your price. Anything. I’ll pay it. You can have me too, if you like. I’m not unattractive.
– Andrea Anders
At last, you’re starting to tell the truth.
– James Bond
Oh, James. You didn’t!
– Goodnight
Yes, I damn well did!
– James Bond

Oh, James. You didn’t!
– Goodnight
Yes, I damn well did!
– James Bond

Bon jour, Mr. Bond. I am Nick-nack. Dom Perignon – soixante quatre.
– Nick-nack
I prefer the ’62 myself.
– James Bond

How do you like my island, Mr Bond?
– Francisco Scaramanga
A bit off the beaten track, isn’t it?
– James Bond

What made you change your mind?
– James Bond
I’m weak.
– Goodnight

Ow! You’re hurting my arm!
– Andrea Anders
I’ll break it unless you tell me what I want.
– James Bond

He even invited me to dinner. He must have found me quite titillating.
– James Bond
