Quick recap

A spoof with no ties to the official series. The real Sir James Bond, retired and stammering, is called back when SMERSH starts wiping out spies. After his Scottish estate is destroyed, he agrees and decides to confuse the enemy by giving the name James Bond 007 to several agents. One is baccarat expert Evelyn Tremble, who takes on Le Chiffre at Casino Royale with Vesper Lynd's help. Mata Bond, James's daughter with Mata Hari, infiltrates a spy school in Berlin. Tremble wins but is betrayed and killed. Bond learns SMERSH is run by his own nephew, Jimmy Bond, alias Dr. Noah, who plans to get rid of every man over 4 feet 6 inches. A massive brawl wrecks the casino, Jimmy blows up and everyone ends up in heaven.
