Biography[]
One morning on the beach, James Bond rescues a beautiful, but emotionally shattered countess from drowning herself. Her father, the boss of one of Europe's largest organized crime syndicates, befriends Bond and suggests that he might woo her in order to help her deal with her issues. This is pretty sleazy even for Bond, but he agrees anyway because the mafioso has access to information beyond the reach of official organizations and can help him get a lead on the head of SPECTRE, Ernst Stavro Blofeld. Blofeld, meanwhile, has developed a biological agent to induce sterility in plants and animals and potentially wipe out entire species, which he will put to use if he is not granted amnesty for all past crimes and an official acknowledgement of his bogus claim to nobility.

Trivia[]
- George Lazenby was originally contracted to star in potentially seven more 007 films, but his agent convinced him that the "liberated" '70's would make spy films archaic. Therefore, Lazenby declined to return for more films in the franchise, yet the series, contrary to his agent's belief, continued for every decade from the 1960's up until and including the 2020's.
