Volpe approaches Bond as he is dancing with another woman. Assuming Volpe is his wife, the woman leaves, and the pair begin slow-dancing, while one of the other henchmen hides behind a curtain and aims a gun at Bond. Bond notices in time and spins Volpe into the bullet, piercing her [[vertebral column|spine]] and killing her. Leaving Volpe's corpse in a chair
 saying, "She's just dead." and the other henchmen in shock, Bond exits.

==Death controversy==
Her death has been a source of debate by Bond film fans for years, due to the ambiguous nature in which her killing is filmed. To some, Bond intentionally uses her as a human shield to protect himself against a bullet, which would make her the first woman in the Bond film series to be killed by 007. This is parodied in ''[[Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me]]'', in a scene in which [[Austin Powers]] uses a female assassin to get stabbed shot blown up and fall out of a high window.

==Memorable quotes==
{{cquote|'''Fiona Volpe''': Do you like wild things Mr. Bond, James Bond? ''(Fiona bites him on the shoulder}''
'''James Bond''': Wild? You should be locked up in a cage. ''(He starts kissing her on the lips and neck)''
 
'''Fiona''':''(putting fingers on bed)'' Mmm... this bed feels like a cage, all these bars. Do you think I'll be... ''(moans)'' safe?}}

==Other versions==
In the remake ''[[Never Say Never Again]]'', also starring [[Sean Connery]], this character is slightly modified as [[Fatima Blush]].
