The beast fights him, and Bond drags it to the beach. Bond is approached by his local guide and friend Fidele Barbey , whose family basically runs the Seychelles, to go along on an expedition. Milton Krest , an American millionaire with an incredibly luxurious yacht, the Wavekrest , is going to a distant island that's little more than a bump in the sea to collect a rare fish, Fidele is his guide, and Fidele wants Bond for his diving expertise, plus it's something to do.
Bond goes along, but is immediately put off by the rude, crude, domineering Krest, who constantly insults his guests, shows off, and intimidates his wife Elizabeth , a beautiful, kind, young Englishwoman.
In fact, Bond finds out that he beats her with a stingray tail, a particularly painful punishment, and he's not ashamed to admit it. Krest avoids taxes and covers his expenses by running a foundation that uses his yacht and other travels to collect scientific specimens for museums; he just goes in, buys up whatever he's told to find, and continues on to his next vacation spot. Bond quickly finds Krest unbearable, but enjoys the company of Elizabeth.
At the island, Bond and Fidele go diving to search for the Hildebrand Rarity, a unique type of fish only seen before in that location. They don't find one, but Krest eventually does, sending Bond out to watch for it as it darts around, while Krest prepares to pour a bucket of poison onto the reef that will kill everything there in an attempt to get the one fish.
Bond is repulsed, and ends up attempting to sabotage Krest by giving the signal at the wrong time, just to spite him. Despite his best efforts, the Rarity wanders into the poison and is killed. That night, Krest gets even drunker and meaner than usual, insulting Bond and Fidele and making it clear he's going to beat his wife for some comment she made a long time ago, because he's an abusive husband.
Bond finally has enough, insults him a few times, and goes out on the stern deck, where he's been sleeping the whole time to get away from Krest. Liz comes out and talks to him, and Krest comes out just in time to see her hold his hand.
He insults Bond so more, so Bond is about to let him have the beating he's cruising for when Krest shows a whistle he can use to summon his crew of Germans, and threatens to have Bond killed and dumped overboard.
