-->'''Bond''': ''[chuckling nervously]'' Very novel!

'''Elliot Carver:''' Therein lies your problem, Mr. Bond. You see, we’re both men of action, but your era and Miss Lin’s is passing. Words are the new weapons, satellites the new artillery.\\

'''Elliot Carver:''' Exactly! Caesar had his legions, Napoleon had his armies, I have my divisions. TV, news, magazines. And by midnight I’ll have reached and influenced more people than anyone in the history of this planet, save God Himself. And the best He ever managed was the Sermon on the Mount.\\

* Wai Lin is essentially a Chinese, [[DistaffCounterpart female version]] of Bond which implies she regularly goes on madcap adventures where she ends up banging various [[BondGirl Wai...Boys]]? with {{punny|name}} PornNames. Somewhere in China, there's a female version of Q, an older male version of M, and a male secretary she refuses to bang but constantly flirts with.

** Later in the chase, they do a roofhop with their motorcycle over the helicopter, crashing through an apartment where a couple is having sex. The copulating couple pause, momentarily distracted, then once Bond and Wai Lin drive out, the woman resumes riding the man like nothing happened.

* Elliott Carver is properly introduced videoconferencing with his bureaus around the world. While this helps set up how horribly evil he is, he still manages to pull a case of him being a jerk into very morbid BlackComedy.

* The newscaster who reports on the disaster at Carver's initial broadcast being knocked of the air:

** At one point in the chase, Bond punches a henchman off a catwalk, and he falls into a printing press. Cue the press turning out newspapers stained with blood. "[[BondOneLiner They'll print anything these days]]."

'''Elliot Carver''': And after he signs the bill, release the tape anyway.\\

* Bond becomes uncomfortable when he learns that M and Moneypenny know all about his past sexual encounters. "I didn't know that was public knowledge."

** "Welcome. Please fasten seat belt." Said as Bond has just remotely opened one of the rear windows and dived into the backseat.
** "Warning. Unsafe driving will void warranty." Said as Bond is smashing through barricades and swerving around explosions.
** "Reduce speed. Pedestrians in roadway." The "pedestrians" are Carver's goons who are trying to kill Bond.
** "Obstruction ahead. Reduce speed ''now.''" This is the only advice Bond even ''partially'' listens to, specifically because the "obstruction" is a door that somehow shrugs off the car's built-in rockets.

* When Bond and Wade are getting the stolen GPS unit checked out, Bond and Wade share a silent look about their chosen attire (Bond is dressed as a formal military officer, Wade is in casual attire wearing a Hawaiian shirt). Wade lamely straightens his shirt in an effort to make himself look better.
