The Cigar Girl first appears in the Swiss banker's office in Bilbao
where Bond was investigating the murder of 0012. She offers him a cigar, hence her name. On Bond's attempt to force the banker to relay information about the death of the MI6 agent who obtained certain top secret documents from the Russian Atomic Energy Department, The Cigar Girl escapes after throwing a knife in the banker's neck as he is about to give away information.
Later in the opening sequence, after Sir Robert King was blown up with explosive money,
the Cigar Girl was waiting in a speedboat on the River Thames
with a scoped rifle taking a shot at Bond for good measure and then attempting to escape. 007 went after her and the two eventually ended up in a hot air balloon. By then MI6, via helicopters, cornered her. Rather than face Renard's persecution, the Cigar Girl chose suicide by firing into the gas tanks forcing Bond to jump and land on the roof of the Millennium Dome
