Exactly! Bond gulps nervously, and Adam raises an eyebrow, and everyone else looks confused.
The problem with those scenes is that they assume that only the main characters (good or bad) are seriously dangerous. It implies that the world is a lot simpler than it really is. Coincidences do happen, more often than not, and they can get you into all sorts of trouble when you are acting like the big bad and then stumble across someone else who is that much more dangerous than you and you've just pissed them off.
