Immediately after the title we end up in East Berlin, where a clown on the run from two knives pitchers, who he and his brother were clear. Eventually they throw at a lock to a knife in his back and he touches water. He staggers to country and walks over to the British Embassy. Here he falls down dead by a window, which he drops a golden egg.

James Bond is assigned to investigate the matter. The clown turned secret agent 009 and the golden egg turned out to be a counterfeit Fabergé-egg . The real egg, theKroningsei, is auctioned in London. Along with art expert Jim Fanning of MI6 goes Bond to the auction. There is the him on that a certain Kamal Khan, an exiled Afghan Prince, the egg per se wants to buy. He offers, hounded by Bond, even over his limit back. Bond swaps the egg during the auction to for the fake egg. Khan buys it in the long run for half a million pounds. He leaves, of course, shadowed, the auction and take the plane back to India.

Bond will also start to India with the real egg, where he met the local agent Vijay. During a game of backgammon against Khan, put Bond in the real egg. He throws with the weighted dice of Khan and wins the pot. Khan immediately sends his right hand Gobinda behind Bond with a group of killers. Bond and Vijay however succeed in the local MI6 station, where Q a listening device in the egg stops. Magda, a female attendant of Khan, seduces Bond eventually (where he has a tattoo of a Blue-ringed octopus with her discovered) and steals the egg, after which Bond is kidnapped to Khans Palace. Bond escapes from his cell and discovered through the Khan bugging device that interacts with Orlov, a General from the Soviet Union. Apparently they sit behind the smuggling of counterfeit jewelry.

Bond escapes Khan and Gobinda. He is found out that Khan is in contact with a mysterious palace where only women are permitted. Bond calls within and discovered the meaning of the tattoo: the island is headed by a woman who calls herself Octopussy. They connect prompt peace with Bond, who in an earlier mission had to arrest her father but saved him the humiliation. Orlov has exchanged for Russian art treasures fakes, so Khan the Octopussy's circus to the west block can jewelry through smuggling. A new attack by professional killers leads to the death of Vijay, but Q saves Bond with a submarine disguised as crocodile.

Because Orlov and Khan each other in Karl-Marx-Stadt will meet, Bond goes back here as well. As he enters the circus train (where he is one of the blades turn off pitchers), he discovers that Orlov and Khan the coffin with the swap for a jewelry case with a bomb in it. Orlov wants the bomb go off on an American base in Western Germany, so that it will seem an accident. The General is convinced that this will lead to unilateral disarmament in the West, so that Western Europe will be open for an invasion. Bond goes on board the moving train before it passes the border. Orlov tries in panic to follow, but is shot by East German border guards.KGB-general Gogol who discovered the jewelry smuggling, arrives too late to behind Orlovs plan plan. Meanwhile, Bond gets on the train in fight with Gobinda and the surviving knives pitcher and falls off the train so he's been hitchhiking to the base to Findout.

Bond explains the last kilometres to steal by a car, so he the police and later also the guards of the basic gets behind him. He disguises himself as this clown and disrupts the show because the bomb under the gun of the living cannon ball is so that he can defuse bomb exactly at the last minute. Octopussy goes back to India to wreak havoc on Khan and falls with all its women within his palace. Still manages to overpower her and Khan in it as a hostage to carry. Bond, however, also, with the help of Q, invade and jumps on Khans plane. Gobinda is thrown from the plane and Bond sabotages an engine, then jumps out of the plane with Octopussy as along a mountain top shave. Khan itself damaged in an accident with the plane. Now the case is over, comes to London to meet Gogol M explaining that the Soviet Government denies all involvement, but the jewels back. Bond, however, does as if he seriously injured is hit, so he can spend some time with Octopussy. ==Origin title<span class="mw-editsection" len="338" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p lang="en" len="71" style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">The title refers to the eponymous smokkelaarster Octopussy . ==Film Locations<span class="mw-editsection" len="335" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == ==Division Of Roles<span class="mw-editsection" len="335" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == ==Backgrounds and trivia<span class="mw-editsection" len="346" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] ==
