SMERSH begins to get the upper hand, and Bond swings into action. Mata is also abducted and carried off in a flying saucer. In pursuit, Tremble is captured, tortured, and eventually shot. Although Tremble defeats Le Chiffre at the gaming tables, Vesper is kidnaped as they leave. While Mata is outwitting SMERSH in Berlin, Bond sends Tremble and Vesper to the famed Casino Royale, and there SMERSH agent Le Chiffre is attempting to replenish his organization's finances by playing baccarat. He enlists the services of Vesper Lynd, the world's richest and most seductive spy Evelyn Tremble, the inventor of a foolproof gambling system Cooper, a strong-arm agent trained to resist women and Bond's own daughter, Mata Bond. To outwit his enemy, Bond decides there should be more than one 007 agent.

Bond's charms are such, however, that Lady Fiona gives up her life of espionage and retires to a convent when Bond declines her offer of love. After his longtime superior McTarry ('M') is killed, Bond goes to Scotland to console McTarry's widow, Lady Fiona, unaware that the woman he encounters is actually a SMERSH agent. But as the international crime organization known as SMERSH threatens world domination, he agrees to come out of retirement. The original James Bond (007) retired following his star-crossed love affair with Mata Hari and watched with disdain as his gimmick-laden imitators sullied his name.
