On One Condition | |
| Role of Honour / int_182f59f9 | comment |
On One Condition: As part of his quarter-million pound inheritance, Bond is required to spend at least hundred thousand pounds of it in a "frivolous and extravagant manner" within the first four months of getting it (apparently Uncle Bruce had a sense of humor). He spends most of the required sum on a new Bentley Mulsanne Turbo, and the remaining thirty thousand on friends (mostly female) and himself, including on gambling sprees. | |

Unexpected Inheritance | |
| Role of Honour / int_bd9beaf4 | comment |
Unexpected Inheritance: Bond inherits a quarter million pounds from an Australian uncle he has never heard of (Bruce, his father's younger brother). The following spending spree mandated by the will makes him seem suspicious in the eyes of his employers (except for a select few whom he'd reported the inheritance to, per service requirements) and some of their allies, since coincidentally there have been a couple of Soviet men (called "ambulance chasers") hiring double-agents lately. | |

Evil Plan: Using stolen ciphers only available for the leaders of USA and Soviet Union on special frequencies, the bad guys initially plan to trick them both to destroy all their nuclear codes, leaving them defenseless and destabilizing the nuclear balance. When the plan is put into action, it is revealed that SPECTRE only wants to remove USA's nuclear defenses, and hand them over to Soviet Union. | |
