I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE TO PUT THAT

Contributed by: The Complete James Bond Movie Encyclopedia by Steven Jay Rubin

Miss Moneypenny’s (SAMANTHA BOND) comment when James Bond (PIERCE BROSNAN) hands her the cigar he received from the Cigar Girl (MARIA GRAZIA CUCINOTTA) in The World Is Not Enough. It’s an obvious reference to the infamous stogie deployed by Washington intern Monica Lewinsky during her affair with President Clinton, an unusual contemporary bit of dialogue that harkens back to the days when the screenwriters weren’t afraid to spoof actual events. (Remember the Duke of Wellington painting in Dr. No‘s underground chambers?)
