** Subverted in the book - she was tied up with the threat of being eaten by a swarm of crabs. She knew the crabs were harmless, and let them swarm over her; her distressed attitude was over what would happen to Bond.

* [[Just Between You and Me]]: A not too blatant example, since the US had worked out before the events of the film that their rockets were being toppled; they just didn't know who the culprit was, and Bond works out by himself that Dr. No is responsible. However, Dr. No also freely gives away the existence of SPECTRE, who Bond and, presumably, [[MI 6]] had been totally ignorant of until that point. In fairness, he only told him because he was trying to recruit him, and Russia and China definitely know because they keep doing business with them (No is on a mission for SPECTRE, but it is strongly implied that they were hired by Red China; No even has an army of Chinese henchmen), so its not so bad if half the world knows anyway.

* [[The Load]]: Honey is as useful as a rubber spanner. About all she does is help find the "dragon" that takes them to Dr. No's base. We know she's there for the [[Fan Service]], to play the [[Distressed Damsel]] and get rescued. And for the bedroom cut-away as the credits roll.
