Bond girl: Magda
After it becomes clear that Bond has the egg, Magda is sent to seduce Bond to retrieve it. She steals the egg from him after a date and escapes through the balcony. Bond allows this so he can follow the egg. After her escape Bond is attacked by Gobinda. At the Monsoon Palace, Magda witnesses Bond escaping but does not tell. Later, Magda is seen at the Octopussy circus as the ringmaster.
Magda also has an Octopussy Tattoo on her bottom. The Octopus her tattoo is based on is in reality actually based on one of the most dangerous species of Octopus in the world, The Blue Ringed Octopus which also Octopussy keeps as a pet. The Blue Ringed Octopus has enough venom to kill up to 50 people.
Magda also didn’t willingly change sides. She only changed after discovering a bomb planted by Khan. Although she even seemed hesitant about changing then even telling Octopussy that it could ruin their entire operation. After being informed of Khan’s betrayal, Magda sets out for revenge and joins Bond to help take down Kamal and his remaining henchmen.
