On Her Majesty's Secret Service Trailer

Synopsis:
    Her name was Teresa (Tracy) di Vincenzo. Bond saved her from suicide and some dangerous killers. He never forgot her. Or her murder. This all started because after Bond saved Tracy, her father, crime lord of Corsican decent, Marc Ange Draco is looking for a husband to tame his rambunctious daughter. He sees that Bond saves her from her own fate and decides he is the best candidate. Bond would say no, save for one thing Draco has--information on Ernst Stravo Blofeld's whereabouts. So 007 takes a visit to the Royal College of Arms and receives information that Blofeld has been asking for the title of Count De Bleuchamp. Sir Hilary Bray has been in contact with Blofeld, under the perceived name, Count de Bleuchamp. Blofeld also has had plastic surgery to alter his appearance entirely. He also has had his earlobes cut off to resemble the noticeable characteristic of the de Bleuchamp family. After the visit to the college, Bond fakes his identity and becomes Sir Hilary Bray and pretends to be visiting Blofelds "clinic" in the Swiss Alps. He arrives and is greeted warmly where he meets Blofeld's "patients." Girls from all over the world have come to this mountain-top "clinic" to "cure food allergies." Little to their knowledge, they are being brainwashed to release samples of "Virus Omega" that will destroy the world's crops and animals.
