. She is impressed by his gambling skills and latches herself onto his arm. Bond uncharacteristically tries to send her away, but she proves quite difficult to ditch.

In a scene deleted from the theatrical film but now available on DVD, Plenty and Bond share a dinner together and she invites herself to his hotel room.

Plenty accompanies Bond to his apartment and kisses him out of the blue. Bond responds by undressing her — unzipping her purple satin dress, stripping her down to her necklace, her purple high heels and panties. Now almost completely naked, and anticipating a night of passion, Plenty excuses herself to her bedroom, only to discover several thugs there. The nearly naked Plenty, sans necklace, is forced out of the apartment by the "pervert convention" and is thrown out the window, landing in the pool and surviving the fall.

In a later scene, Bond finds Plenty in Tiffany's pool, having been drowned by Blofeld's henchmen Mister Wint and Mister Kidd, who believed she was Tiffany Case. The drowning itself is not seen in the movie.
