6* The Cigar Girl's truly terrified "Not from him!" (Regarding Bond promising to protect her) just before she kills herself. How much of a bastard is Renard that this FemmeFatale would rather take her own life than suffer his wrath for failing to carry out his orders?
7* In the backstory, Elektra's father ''not'' paying the $5 million ransom for her on M's advice. It wound up being her StartOfDarkness. M also expresses regret over leaving Elekta with Renard. "It went against every instinct I have as a mother." A lot of her reactions can boil down to MyGodWhatHaveIDone.
8* Bond is visibly uncomfortable and quickly changes the subject when Elektra asks him if he's ever lost someone close to him. It's heavily implied that he's thinking about [[Film/OnHerMajestysSecretService Tracy]].
9* For car lovers, Bond's BMW Z8 being cut in half by a buzzsaw helicopter.
10** What's worse is Bond saying afterwards "Q's not going to like this" non-ironically. His old friend just retired and he couldn't bring this ''one car'', back and intact.
11* Valentin Zukovsky storms the SupervillainLair and figures out Elektra and Renard have murdered his nephew (the submarine's captain), simply by [[DeadHatShot looking at his cap]].
12* Zukovsky's HeroicSacrifice.
13** The genuinely grateful smile Bond gives him just before he passes away.
14* Bond finds himself forced to shoot Elektra. Her UsefulNotes/StockholmSyndrome was seemingly irredeemable.
15-->'''Elektra:''' You couldn't kill me. You'd miss me... [[KilledMidSentence DIVE, BO-]]\
16''(Bond pulls his gun and shoots her immediately)''\
17'''Bond:''' ''(Bitterly)'' [[BondOneLiner ...I never miss.]]
18** M comes into view right when Bond shoots Elektra and is visibly shaken by it.
19*** Never mind M, after shooting Elektra, Bond just ''breaks''. When he jumps out the window, ostensibly going after Renard and the submarine, it's easy to assume [[DrivenToSuicide he doesn't really care whether he lands in the water or not]].
20* Renard's [[VillainousBreakdown horrified reaction]] to learning that Elektra is dead.
21-->''"You're '''[[ThatLiarLies lying]]'''! '''NOOOOOO! LIAR!'''"''
