From Quiz Octopussy

Answer: Sotheby's

When he briefed 007 about the fake egg, M mentioned that the auction would be taking place at Sotheby's and that Bond should accompany their art expert to help spot the seller. The Fabergé egg, which had been taken from the National Fine Art Repository and replaced by a fake egg, was being sold at auction. However, when 009 stole the fake egg and there was to be an unplanned inventory of the Repository, Orlov had to arrange for the real egg to be bought back. Bond bid on the egg at the auction to see how badly the buyer wanted it and whilst examining it, swapped the real one for the fake one so he could bait the buyer Kamal Khan who had been ordered to buy the egg at whatever cost.

Answer: Kamal Khan

Kamal Khan said this to Bond after Bond beat him in backgammon. Kamal was using loaded dice and Bond decided to use them. Bond ended up rolling a double 6 to win the game.

From Quiz Octopussy

Answer: Backgammon

When Bond entered the hotel casino, Khan was playing a Major at backgammon. Khan seemed to be extremely lucky by being able to throw double-sixes to win when needed. When Khan doubled the bet to 100,000 rupees, which the Major couldn't accept with Khan's luck, Bond took his place using the real Fabergé egg as security. Khan threw a double-six and Bond doubled the bet again, needing to throw a double-six to win. Khan accepted and Bond used player's privilege to use Khan's dice which he knew were rigged to throw a double-six and win.

Answer: James Bond

Bond said this joke when Q was testing one of his gadgets. The gadget was a remote control rope, where a person held on to the rope and the rope lifting him/her up.

From Quiz Octopussy

Answer: Crocodile

Bond saw an octopus tattoo on Kamal, Khan's associate, Magda. Sadruddin indentified it as the emblem of the Octopus cult, run by Octopussy, and told him about the island. Bond used a crocodile disguise to reach the island and meet Octopussy. After Octopussy refused to hand him over to Kamal Khan, Khan got Gobinda to hire some local mercenaries to kill Bond. During their attack Bond and a mercenary fell into the water surrounding the island and neither re-surfaced. Octopussy believed both had been killed by crocodiles but Bond had survived and travelled back to shore in his disguise. He found Q with the body of Vijay, who had been killed by the mercenaries whilst keeping watch on the island. Bond's disguise was somewhat similar to the seagull disguise used in the pre-credit sequence of "Goldfinger".

From Quiz Octopussy

Answer: A female smuggler

Octopussy was a female smuggler whose circus was being used as a front by General Orlov and Kamal Khan to detonate an atomic bomb on an American airbase and steal some precious Russian jewels. Octopussy was the daughter of Major Dexter Smythe, who disappeared after being sent to recover some Chinese gold from North Korea. Bond was sent to arrest him and tracked him down to Sri Lanka, where Smythe committed suicide rather than face court martial. Octopussy was Smythe's pet name for her and she always wanted to thank Bond for giving him an honourable alternative. Octopussy was played by Maud Adams who appeared as Scaramanga's mistress, Andrea Anders, in "The Man with the Golden Gun". She also appeared as an extra in "A View to a Kill", the next "Bond" film.
