A young “Madeleine” observes terrorist “Lyutsifer Safin” murdering her mother. Then after shooting “Safin,” young “Madeleine” runs away and falls into a freezing lake, but “Safin” finds her and saves her.

“Madeleine” goes to “Matera, Italy” with James Bond following Blofeld’s capture, several years later. She convinces Bond to go to the neighboring cemetery of his former flame, “Vesper Lynd,” where he escapes an explosion set up by “Spectre” agents under the command of “Primo” (a bionic-eyed mercenary).

After that Bond picked Madeleine, and both escaped in “Aston Martin DB5” while struggling with Primo and its team. Following the difficult situation, Bond feels deceived by “Madeleine” and they split ways.

Five years later, “Valdo Obruchev,” an MI6 scientist who also secretly works for “Safin,” was kidnapped by Primo and its crew (Spectre soldiers) from a laboratory in London, and “Heracles” was taken. Under M’s direction, a programmed nanobot bioweapon that targets DNA was created, called “Heracles” here.

A CIA ally “Felix Leiter” and a State Department operative named “Logan Ash” get in touch with retired Bond (in Jamaica) to request Bond’s assistance in freeing Obruchev from Cuba. In “Santiago de Cuba,” Obruchev had been detected by a face recognition system. Bond first declines, but then agrees when “Nomi,” his replacement as Agent 007, places him in touch with M and cautions him “not to obstruct” during extraction of Obruchev by her.

After setting out for Cuba, Bond and CIA operative “Paloma” see Heracles eliminate a group of “Spectre” peoples in a party. Prior to that, Blofeld uses Primo’s bionic eye to monitor the party from “Belmarsh” jail and orders release of “nanobots mist” (Heracles) intended to murder Bond. However, Obruchev had changed the nanobots’ programming (based on DNA) to murder the “Spectre” members on Safin’s orders.

Bond brings Obruchev from the party to “Ash” and “Leiter” on a boat, outwitting “Nomi” (the new double-0 agent) with Paloma’s assistance. When it is discovered that Ash is someone else who is also working for “Safin,” he shoots “Leiter” and seals him below deck with Bond, before escaping with Obruchev and setting off explosives to sink the boat. The wounded “Leiter” dies after the explosion, but Bond manages to escape.

Desperate to exact revenge for his friend’s (Leiter) passing, Bond goes back to London. Bond requests authorization from M to question Blofeld over Obruchev’s other employer. It is said that Blofeld exclusively only communicates with “Madeleine,” his doctor. M gives Bond a cold reception, but in the end, he lets him be allowed, and MI6 makes plans for Bond to go interrogate “Blofeld” with Madeleine.

In order to kill Blofeld, “Safin” forces Madeleine to infect herself with a dose of nanobots. Within Blofeld’s cell in “Belmarsh,” Bond contracts the infection from Madeleine, unaware that she is infected with nanobots. The infection task makes “Madeleine” too upset, so she runs away and tells Bond merely that she’s going home. Bond is informed by “Blofeld” that he staged the explosion at Vesper’s tomb (in Italy) to give the impression that “Madeleine” had betrayed him. Bond, filled with wrath, gives Blofeld a brief chokehold before leaving him and unintentionally “transferred the nanobots” to Blofeld’s body and causes his death. The infection does not harm “Madeleine” and Bond because the nanobots were programmed according to Blofeld’s DNA. The infection does not harm “Madeleine and Bond” because the nanobots were programmed according to Blofeld’s DNA.

Bond follows “Madeleine” to her childhood home in Norway, where he meets her five-year-old daughter “Mathilde” and the pair reunite. Here, Madeleine divulges information obtained from confidential documents gathered by Madeleine’s father, “Mr. White,” documents concerning Safin (the villain) and his hatred of “Spectre.” One of the secrets also disclosed that Blofeld gave “Mr. White” the command to kill Safin’s family. Safin, though, survived.

The next day, MI6 notifies Bond that “Ash” is getting close to where he is. As “Bond, Mathilde, and Madeleine” flee in their car, Ash and some armed goons attack them and chase them into the neighboring woods. Bond hides “Madeleine and Mathilde” while he confronts Ash and his men. Bond avenges Leiter’s death by defeating Ash’s men and then killing “Ash,” and in the meanwhile, “Safin” abducts Madeleine and Mathilde. They were both brought to Safin’s island base.

Previously the island was a “missile setup” in the Japan Sea that was transformed into a factory producing “nanobots” by Safin. Q gave Nomi and Bond a “submersible glider” so they could sneak into Safin’s area. Bond and Nomi receive orders from M to “attack area and save Madeleine,” and “Obruchev, Primo, and Safin” to be killed. Before launching a missile attack on the island’s area/facility, Bond and Nomi want to save “Madeleine and Mathilde.”

When Bond faces “Safin,” after a small encounter he runs off with Mathilde. However, Safin eventually frees “Mathilde” as he is heads out to meet the clients of the nanobots. Madeleine manages to get away from Primo’s notice in the meanwhile and meets up with “Bond and Mathilde” again. Also, Nomi carries out “Madeleine and Mathilde” from the island (via boat) after killing Obruchev by throwing him into an acid pool.

Bond stays on the island to eliminate “Primo, Safin and their team.” He eliminates Primo and the rest of Safin’s soldiers before allowing missiles from “HMS Dragon Type 45” to enter the silo. When the silo doors abruptly begin to close, Bond quickly tries to return to the control room, only to be ambushed by Safin.

During a fight with “Safin,” Bond is infected by him with a “nanobots vial” (meant to be programmed for the murder of Mathilde and Madeleine). After taking a shot at Safin (killed) and reopening the silo doors, the injured Bond realizes he can’t get away in time to “avoid the approaching missiles.” Saying farewell over the radio, Bond tells Madeleine how much he loves her and “Mathilde,” who Madeleine reveals is his own daughter. The facility is destroyed by the missiles, saving the earth, but “Bond” perishes in the ensuing explosion.
