Line 1:
{{work|wppage=On Her Majesty's Secret Service (film)}}
[[File:On-Her-Majestys-Secret-Service.jpg|frame]]
Line 32:
* [[Death by Sex]]: See [[Cartwright Curse]] above.
* [[Did Not Do the Research]]: In-universe. Bond's cover was blown partly because he couldn't get his genealogy facts straight, as Blofeld himself states.
* [[Diabolus Ex Machina]]: {{Spoiler|Blofeld kills Tracy on her and Bond's honeymoon}}.
* [[Downer Ending]]: See above.
* [[Drugs Are Bad]]: Marc-Ange Draco, head of the Unione Corse, the biggest European crime syndicate, commits murders, extortion, theft, sexual slavery, and many, many other crimes. But he's a good guy because he doesn't sell drugs.
Line 49:
* [[Ironic Echo]]: "We Have All The Time In The World"
* [[Just Between You and Me]]
* [[Karma Houdini]]: {{Spoiler|Irma Bunt is the person who actually kills Tracy and she is never seen again in this or any other Bond film, which means that the murderer of Bond's wife got away with it completely. A case of [[Real Life Writes the Plot]], the actress Ilse Steppat died mere days after the film's release. The comics ultimately rectified this, by having her show up again and killed off}}.
* [[Leaning on the Fourth Wall]]: "This never happened to [[Sean Connery|the OTHER fellow]]."
** [[Double Entendre]]: He could be referring to Prince Charming, what with the shoes.
Line 75:
* [[Stealth Insult]]: Sir Hillary, er, Bond tells Irma Bunt her name is a naval term for the baggy or swollen part of a sail. "Nothing personal, of course."
* [[Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome]]: Originally planned for {{spoiler|Tracy}}, but changed at the last minute to keep the plot condensed.
* [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]: Tracy is one for Vesper Lynd, since ''Cassino Royale'' hadn't been adapted yet. She is the girl who reaches deepest inside Bond's heart, has a [[Dark and Troubled Past]] that makes her unstable, criminal connections, {{Spoiler|and her death therefore deeply traumatizes him}}.
* [[The Syndicate]]: The Unione Corse, Europe's largest criminal organization and where Bond can turn when his own government will not give him the support he needs.
* [[Ten-Minute Retirement]]: We dare you, ''dare you'', to guess the circumstances of ''this'' one!
Line 81 ⟶ 82:
* [[Title Montage]]: Various clips from the five previous Bond movies can be seen during the intro sequence.
* [[What Kept You?]]: She still needs help to get out of the complex, but when the [[Big Damn Heroes]] arrive at the end {{spoiler|Tracy has killed the man guarding her and just needs a ride home}}
* [[Yank the Dog's Chain]]: {{Spoiler|Bond losing his new bride Tracy]].
