Orlov is in league with an exiled Afghan prince named Kamal Khan ( Louis Jourdan) who plans on using his association with Octopussy ( Maud Adams), a wealthy businesswoman and smuggler, to sneak a nuclear bomb into an American military base in West Germany. A Russian general named Orlov ( Steven Berkoff) is unhappy with his countries decision to go along with N.A.T.OвЂ™s disarmament treaty as believes that Mother Russia should, instead, expand its borders across Europe. The movieвЂ™s plot is fairly convoluted and completely falls apart if any thought is given to it. Question: What kind of a dad nicknames his daughter Octopussy? The movieвЂ™s title character is revealed to be the daughter of that late soldier and she actually thanks Bond for allowing her father an honourable death and this puts the character of Octopussy in the category of вЂњgoodвЂќ Bond girls for even though she is the head of a criminal organization sheвЂ™s not a cold-hearted killer вЂ“ even her army of women use dart guns to take down enemies вЂ“ but she will, sadly, end up another sexual conquest of Bonds. With Octopussy we donвЂ™t such as get another вЂњIn Name OnlyвЂќ adaptation of a Flemming story, as was the case with Moonraker, but a completely original screenplay that used elements of Ian Fleming works, such as the short story 'The Property of a Lady' for the scene where Bond gets his hands on the villainвЂ™s FabergГ© egg and the backstory of the title character is from the short story collection ' Octopussy and The Living Daylight.' In that short story, Bond was assigned to apprehend a hero of the Second World War who had been implicated in a murder involving a stolen cache of Nazi gold, but Bond being a sympathetic secret agent he gives the man the choice of suicide or court-martial, which results in the man taking his own life via the tentacles of his beloved but poisonous pet, that he'd named Octopussy.
