| 6 | * [[TheDragon Necros]], full stop. [[ParanoiaFuel He can perfectly imitate people's voices (including accents, uncannily)]] and effortlessly snatches his target from a heavily guarded security compound. His execution methods are also quite brutal. Being strangled, or being crushed/slashed to ribbons by a booby-trapped sliding glass door, with poor Saunders on the receiving end. |
| 7 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlZyeel-n9w Bond interrogating Pushkin]]. Creator/JohnRhysDavies did a great job in portraying the dread Pushkin had to feel, knowing that one wrong word to Bond would be his last. |
| 8 | ** Plus, Creator/TimothyDalton is absolutely ''chilling'' in the scene. It's a scene that really shows Bond as he truly is - a cold-blooded assassin. |
| 9 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLjVYIfPaoM Bond's faked assassination of Pushkin]], with it and its aftermath shown in all the grisly detail of an actual assassination. Pushkin is quick to comfort his shaken mistress when the coast is clear. |
| 10 | * The entire fight aboard the plane is this, as not only are Bond and Necros hanging precariously from a huge sack of opium dangling in the wind out the back of the plane, but Bond is racing against time to stop the bomb he had planted aboard the aircraft before he was forced to hijack it. |
| 11 | ** On that note, Necros' death definitely counts. [[AssholeVictim Evil as he was]], it's quite chilling when Bond sends him plummeting to his death as he begs for his life. |
| 12 | * The death of Saunders, crushed between (heavy) sliding glass doors in an amusement park. Thankfully, [[GoryDiscretionShot the gory deed and the aftermath are kept offscreen]]. Bond was terrified, then angry. |
| 13 | ** The look of ''[[DeathGlare pure rage]]'' on Bond's face as he pops the "Smiert Spionam" balloon that Necros left as a calling card near Saunders's body. Just from that one moment, you know that Necros isn't making it out of the movie alive. |
