I can still hear this line from Dr. No purely because of its delivery. It’s not especially profound or exotic, but the Daily Gleaner photographer, Annabel Chung, says it with such distinct flair that it lingers in my head. After being detained at Bond’s request, her camera is confiscated and film is destroyed. Quarrel wrenches her arm and is close to breaking it to force a confession about her employer, but is finally released. She wastes no time in expressing her anger and using a smashed camera bulb, scrapes Quarrels cheek and draws blood.

Her accent in in this final line before her departure almost sounds like a drawl that rattles quickly off her tongue and is enjoyable for viewers like myself to repeat in jest. Maybe she understands she’s in a little over her head, and in frustration lands hard on “RATS” with such exaggerated emphasis that it feels wrong not to capitalize it whenever the quote is in writing.
