For Your Eyes Only (film)/Headscratchers

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Bond dives underwater to meet Melina and update her on what he's learned about Cristatos. In returning to her ship, she removes her SCUBA tank and leaves it at the bottom of the ocean. Later in the film, it's available to save their lives. WHY WOULD SHE LEAVE IT THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE?
    • She's Genre Savvy enough to know it might be necessary?
    • She's leaving it there as a place marker, so she can find the site again.
  • Assuming that it is Blofeld (he's unnamed, presumably due to the copyright issues surrounding Thunderball), when does the teaser for this film fall?
  • Bond's wife Tracy lived in Portugal and she was killed there in On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Why was she buried in London?
    • Because she's Bond's wife, he's from London, and as her next of kin he would have the rights to dictate where she would be buried.
