In the classic 007 fashion, James Bond rains on Le Chiffre’s parade by traveling to Miami and thwarting the planned plane crash. The move was meant to tank the shares of the airport which, as it turns out, Le Chiffre had shorted. This then leads him to the Bahamas where, in a poker game, he wins his iconic 1964 Aston Martin DB5 and discovers that Le Chiffre plans to destroy a new plane at the Miami airport.
The mission begins with Bond chasing down a bomb-maker in Madagascar who he ends up killing to obtain information. After this, Bond gets his first mission under the 00 status, and this mission is to forestall Le Chiffre, a terrorist-financing banker. He, however, does this by killing a rogue British section chief and his subordinate. Unlike previous 007 films, Casino Royale begins with James Bond having not achieved the 00 status.
