1!!The Film
2* Bond's response to the events of the opening:
3-->'''Bond:''' [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall This never happened to the other fellow!]]
4* After asking to resign from [=MI6=] and the ContinuityCavalcade of objects from the previous films, Bond sits in his office and is about to drink from a flask. Then he looks at a portrait of [[UsefulNotes/ElizabethII Queen Elizabeth II]] and says "Sorry Ma'am!" and drinks.
5* As Draco's henchmen take Bond to see him, they lead him through a small, wooden gate. As Bond passes it, he [[DoorSlamsYou shoves it back as hard as he can]] to try and hit the man behind him out of spite.
6* A janitor can be heard whistling the theme to ''Film/{{Goldfinger}}'' while mopping the floors.
7* A mook who ambushed Bond in Tracy's hotel room is thrown through a wooden divider and left dazed on the floor by Bond. And then same mook is later seen [[BrickJoke unloading a flamethrower on a Piz Gloria guard and even applauding the bride and groom at the end]].
8* This exchange after Moneypenny stops Bond from impulsively quitting his job:
9-->'''Bond:''' Moneypenny, what would I do without you?
10-->'''Moneypenny:''' [[UnresolvedSexualTension My problem is that you never do anything with me]].
11* While undercover at Piz Gloria, Bond tries to bed Ruby for a second time, entering her room while speaking in a "Honey, I'm home!" sort of fashion. However, the moment he insults Irma Bunt, the matron of the complex, she immediately [[BedmateReveal springs out of the bed]], as if offended by the remark.
12-->'''Bond:''' ''(Gasps)'' Fancy meeting you here, Fräulein! ''(Grunther knocks him unconscious)''
13* Bond scheduling an encounter with a different girl every hour. That's how he got caught.
14-->'''Bond, to the nearby curling scorekeeper:''' You've no idea how it's piling up!
15* Bond has a fling with Ruby in order to obtain information about the suspicious clinic that Irma Bunt probably wouldn't want him to know. Fair enough. But then comes a situation where another patient infiltrates his room for a book she'd wanted to see at dinner, which Bond had left in Ruby's room. Bond beds ''her'' as well as a distraction, using the ''exact same lines'' with her as he did with Ruby.
16* Ruby gazing and giggling when Bond drops his kilt in her room.
17-->'''Ruby:''' [[GoingCommando It's true!]]
18* Ruby writes her room number on "Sir Hilary's" leg at the dinner table using her lipstick as a pen. When asked if anything is the matter, we get this:
19-->'''Bond:''' [[SomethingElseAlsoRises Just a slight stiffness coming on...]] in the [[BaitAndSwitchComment shoulder]].
20* "Sir Hillary" describing to Fräulein Bunt what her surname [[StealthInsult stands for]].
21-->'''Bond:''' Bunt? Interesting name for a genealogist. Are you from a naval family?
22-->'''Bunt:''' Naval?
23-->'''Bond:''' It's a nautical term, you see, meaning the baggy or swollen parts of a sail. Nothing personal, of course.
24-->'''Bunt:''' ...Interesting.
25* "I got the gadgets and I know how to use them."
26* Bond tries so hard to remain in character and not flirt at Piz Gloria that he gets visibly uncomfortable when surrounded by the all-female patients of the clinic. [[MistakenForGay This results in some of the girls thinking he's gay]].
27-->'''English girl:''' Well of course, I know what he's allergic to...
28* During the night ski chase, a mook launches off a ramp and goes ''flying'' into a tree, slowly clattering to the ground from it like a cartoon. Another mook grumbling "Idiot!" as they pass him is the cherry on top.
29* After a mook falls into the path of a moving snowblower and is shredded to pieces by it:
30-->'''[[BondOneLiner Bond]]:''' [[BlackComedy He had]] lots of [[LudicrousGibs guts!]]
31* Bond casually flipping through a ''Playboy'' magazine being kept by a banker while he waits for a safecracker to work. At one point the scene cuts back to Bond as he folds up the centerfold with a smile on his face ... and then he opens it up again after glancing at the cracker.
32** And then as he leaves after sending out the stolen documents, he's seen folding up the stolen centrefold of the ''Playboy'' to take with him.
33* Blofeld's "I have taught you to love chickens" line while brainwashing Ruby. That sentence coming from a man like Blofeld is just too good.
34* The teenagers yelling, "Say it with flowers!" when they drove past Bond's Aston Martin, all covered in white flowers.
35* Bond throwing a knife at Draco's calendar.
36-->'''Draco:''' [[DeadpanSnarker But today's the fourteenth, Commander]].
37-->'''Bond:''' [[WorldOfSnark I'm superstitious]].
38* For pure ValuesDissonance, Draco's insistence that the cure for Tracy's rebelliousness is "a MAN! to DOMINATE her!!", which is so bad that even ''Bond'' [[EveryoneHasStandards doesn't think much of that proposal]].
39* After Bond escapes from Piz Gloria to a nearby village, he is seen by Irma Bunt's patrol car and attempts to hide in a shed. It probably would have worked... had the shed not been filled with cowbells that he accidentally backs into. The resulting fight with two mooks sound very... different than your average fistfight.
40* Bond and Tracy are about to kiss while the latter is at the wheel, resulting in a passing car blaring its horn as it speeds by. What's even better is that Tracy wasn't even drifting out of her lane at the time, so [[GetARoom the driver most likely saw them about to kiss at the wheel]].
41-->'''Bond''': Just keep my mind on your driving!
42* While Blofeld is conversing with Tracy near the end of the film, he implies that [[AndNowYouMustMarryMe he will kill her should she refuse his offer to marry him]]. However, one of his mooks tries to warn him of a suspicious aircraft convoy nearby. [[MoodWhiplash Cue Blofeld begrudgingly excusing himself to go and see, as if he and Tracy were just discussing the cricket results]].
43-->'''Blofeld''': ...Excuse me.
44* Irma Bunt is a very serious and scary Matron for Piz Gloria. So what happens when she's engaged in a furious car chase with Bond and Tracy and the latter pair swerve into a stock car race? [[MobstacleCourse Bunt and her men are constantly swarmed and blocked by racers completely unrelated to the chase]]. Special mention to her [[TheComicallySerious barking "Knock him out of the way!"]] when they tail-maneuver a driver, causing him to start swerving in front of their car at a slow speed.
45* A very brief one here, but when Piz Gloria blows up, [[https://youtu.be/P2pqUKtQ-_8?t=357 you can just about see a SPECTRE mook spinning through the air like a samurai star]]. Once you see it, you can never unsee it and it's ''hysterical''.
46* Bond is abducted by Draco's goons at his hotel, one of which he had fight with in Tracy's hotel room the night before. He puts on a hilariously cheery facade upon seeing him.
47-->'''Bond''': You've thought of everything. What a lovely surprise, our meeting again so soon.
48-->''The goon threatens him with a knife''.
49** While in the car:
50-->'''Bond''': So, where's the party, this time?
51-->'''Main goon''': You have an appointment.
52-->'''Bond''': Business or pleasure? ''(Silence)'' Mystery tour, eh? ''(Indicates the knife)'' I think we'll enjoy it more without that.
53-->''The goon removes the knife and grunts in agreement''.
54!!The Novel
55
56!!The Radio Adaptation:
57* When Bond is on his way to Piz Gloria to storm it, he is the one that converses with Zurich Information. He increasingly loses his patience with the person on the other end to sell the illusion that they lost his flight plan papers, ''and it works.''
58-->'''Bond''': Listen, for further information, contact "International Red Cross" at Geneva. I'm just a doctor. ''(Plane roars outside)'' If you have lost the papers, that is not my fault, nor my pilots, ''[[SuddenlyShouting and please call off the Swiss air force, which is, at present, trying to make all my passengers airsick!]]''
