Bond Update!
In You Only Live Twice Bond has to go to Japan and make contact with people there. His code phrase is "I Love You". Miss Moneypenny, the secretary with whom he is always flirting, tries to get him to say it to her, but he coyly declines. Later, he makes contact with a girl in Japan and you can just see how uncomfortable he is with actually uttering those words. Connery did a masterful job of showing how hard he finds it to actually say that simple phrase.
Even later he is with the head of the Japanese secret service, and there are serving girls who are giving them baths (a Japanese thing), and then Bond is asked to pick one to give him a massage. He picks one and the Japanese guy says that it is a good choice because she is "very sexyful"! I couldn't believe I heard that. That is awesome (and completely hilarious).
And then Bond does something that proves he might actually be a spy. He uses an alias. This is the first time in five movies that he actually uses a name other than his own. It doesn't work, they still try to kill him, but I give him full points for trying.
