Biography

Lupe Lamora is villain Franz Sanchez's girlfriend. She despises him, but stays with him out of fear.

In the beginning of the film, Sanchez finds Lupe in a bed with another man and whips her for disloyalty, while literally having the man's heart cut out in the next room by his henchmen. Lupe is sent to the Wavecrest, which is owned by Milton Krest. When Bond sneaks aboard the Wavecrest, Bond finds Lupe in Krest's room. Lupe doesn't tell Krest or Sanchez that Bond was there. Bond escapes and goes off to Isthmus, where he finds Sanchez and Lupe. Lupe then helps Bond escape from Sanchez's hideout. Lupe then tells Pam Bouvier and Q that Bond is still in Isthmus, and that she loves Bond. At the end, however, Bond chooses Pam over her, and tries to set her up with the President of Isthmus.

Lupe is possibly the only Bond girl in the series who had more romantic partners than Bond himself in one film: she is involved with Sanchez, Bond himself, another man (not named) and possibly a fourth in the form of the President of Isthmus. Bond on the other hand, had only two: Lupe and Pam.
