-->'''Tiffany''': It's my own.

--> ''[Tiffany opens the door almost nude]''\\

* AlliterativeName: Willard Whyte. Also doubles as a PunnyName when he names the hotel were he lives [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House The Whyte House]].

--> ''[when Bert Saxby tries to assassinate Willard Whyte, and is gunned down for his efforts]''\\

-->'''Mr. Kidd''': If God had wanted man to fly...
-->'''Mr. Wint''': He would have given him wings, Mr. Kidd.

* ChekhovsGun: Mr. Wint's aftershave. Bond smells it when they put him in a pipe to be buried alive, then he smells it again when [[spoiler: they pose as ocean liner room service to kill Bond and Tiffany in the finale]].

'''Charles Kidd''': [[KillItWithFire Heartwarming]], Mr. Wint.\\

'''Charles Kidd''': ''[shows Tree a water gun flower]'' Ah, but this one's surefire.\\
'''Shady Tree''': That's the oldest [[CurseCutShort Godda]]--\\
'''Albert Wint''': And this one... will kill you. ''[fires a BangFlagGun at Tree]''\\

* CartwrightCurse: [[spoiler: Though she didn't even have time to make love with Bond.]]
* CementShoes: [[spoiler: She is drowned in the hotel pool this way by Wint and Kidd.]]

* InnocentBystander: She doesn't have anything to do with the diamond-smuggling plot, [[spoiler: but is killed by Wint and Kidd when they mistake her for Tiffany Case.]]
* MeaningfulName
--> '''Plenty:''' Hi, I'm Plenty.\\

* HeroesWantRedheads: Bond states in this movie that he did really like redheads.

* {{Gayngst}}: They are vicious killers who are never apart and hold hands while walking away from helicopter explosions. Once, Kidd compliments Tiffany Case, and gets a glare from Wint before adding "...for a lady,". Wint remains unimpressed.

* SaltAndPepper: From what we briefly see about them, they fit the trope. They both start up speaking calmly and seductively, but when they start beating Bond up, while Bambi keeps speaking that way, Thumper switches to {{Kiai}}.

* DeathByAdaptation: His fate is left unrevealed in the novel. In the film, he's killed by Wint and Kidd with a gun disguised as a water pistol (albeit in a scene that was cut).

* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: In the novel, Bond shoots them. In the film, he sets Kidd on fire and throws Wint off a ship attached to a bomb.

* RedAndBlackKeepBack: A literal version; Tiffany changes to her natural red hair and puts on a LittleBlackDress, but tells 'Franks' to back off from his attempts to flirt.

* BuxomIsBetter: Ooh yeah. [[{{Pun}} Plenty]] of it.

* FailedASpotCheck: In the movie Wint fails to notice his bottle of cologne has dropped out of his pocket as he's loading Bond into his trunk. This one mistake causes the failure of his last attempt to kill Bond and causes the death of himself and Kidd.

* TheHermit: He's isolated himself from society making it easy for Blofeld to kidnap and impersonate him.

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: [[HowardHughesHomage The character is a spoof of]] Creator/HowardHughes.

* MsFanservice: Thumper. She's the one in a bikini in the picture. Bambi also gets a decent amount of attention directed towards [[ShesGotLegs her legs.]]

!!Plenty O'Toole
[[quoteright:199:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/13-lana-wood_4599.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:199: ''"The name's Plenty. Plenty O'Toole!"'']]
!!!'''Played by:''' Creator/LanaWood

An opportunistic would-be girlfriend who gets unceremoniously thrown out by thugs. She is killed by Wint and Kidd who mistook her for Tiffany.

* BuxomIsBetter: Ooh yeah. [[{{Pun}} Plenty]] of it.
* CartwrightCurse: [[spoiler: Though she didn't even have time to make love with Bond.]]
* CementShoes: [[spoiler: She is drowned in the hotel pool this way by Wint and Kidd.]]
* CheatedDeathDiedAnyway: [[spoiler:Plenty survives being thrown out a window by landing in a pool that her assailant didn’t know was below the window. Later, she ends up being tossed into a different pool while wearing CementShoes after being mistaken for Tiffany Case, who the villains want to lethally silence. This doubles as a bit of DeathByIrony, given the differing role swimming pools play in the two events.]]
* EmbarrassingFirstName: ''Really''? "Plenty"?
* GamblerGroupies: She's introduced serving as one for a man who's gambling at the Whyte House. Unfortunately for him...
* GoldDigger: ...he loses all his money, so she dumps him and latches on to James Bond after hearing the hefty sum Bond is gambling, giving this vibe.

* PunnyName: A big-breasted woman named Plenty O'Toole.
* SacrificialLamb: [[spoiler:Gets killed by Wint and Kidd to show that they're a dangereous act, just in case their murders in the opening didn't make it clear.]]

* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler:The audience gets to know next to nothing about her before her death.]]
