Meeting Miss Moneypenny For The First Time

Setting: Miss Moneypenny's office at MI6.

(Bond throws his hat on to the hat stand. It lands perfectly.)

Miss Moneypenny (To the telephone): See if he's there, will you?
Miss Moneypenny (Seeing Bond for the first time): James, where on earth have you been? I've been searching London for you!
Miss Moneypenny (To the telephone): 007 is here, sir.
Miss Moneypenny (To Bond): He'll see you in a minute.
(Bond flips through Miss Moneypenny's papers, so she slaps his hand away)
James Bond: Moneypenny!
(Bond takes her hand)
James Bond: What gives?
Miss Moneypenny: Me. Given an ounce of encouragement.
(She admires his dinner suit)
Miss Moneypenny: You never take me to dinner looking like this, James. You never take me to dinner. Period.
James Bond: I would, you know. Only M would have me court-martialled for illegal use of government property.
Miss Moneypenny: Flattery will get you nowhere... But don't stop trying. Now...
James Bond: What's all this to-do about?
Miss Moneypenny: Strangways. And it looks serious. We've been burning the air between here and Jamaica for three hours.
(The door buzzes and the light turns from red to green)
Miss Moneypenny: Oh. In you go.
James Bond: Don't forget to write.
