It's quite annoying- seems like something has been cut somewhere.Ī bit like the bit where he calls the phone on the body in that guy's boot - presumably the car and owner are part of le Chiffre's gang, but he hasn't been set up well enough for us to know him. Or Mathis and Vesper had no business working together, but that doesn't really hold water either) and frankly this bit has baffled me every time I watch it.
I've read some explantions that made sense in another forum, but I can't remember them (something to do with Mathis should be off arresting Le Chiffre? Doesn't seem convincing enough. Also, shouldn't he have suspected Vesper as one of two potential leaks? Apologies if this has been discussed but I couldn't find anything while celebrating a bit after winning the big pot, what clued in Bond that Vesper was in danger when she left the dining room? Some say that Bond suspected Mathis to have tipped Bond off about Le Chiffre's 'tell' while bluffing, but Bond didn't seem to have nursed any suspicions about Mathis before then.
