Question about Casino Royale

    So Casino Royale was on RTÉ again last night and there was a certain string of scenes I still haven't gotten my head around:
    During the Poker tournament there is a 1 hour break (the first one) after 4 hours of play. LeChifre heads back to his room and Bond follows. Obano threatens leChifre about the money he is owed and nearly chops the girl's arm off. Right after this he and his men spot Bond in the hallway and they fight on the stairs. Bond defeats them and hides tyhe bodies at the bottom of the stairwell.

    Here's the bit I'm confused about:
    Right after the fight scene, there is a scene in the daytime where the bodies are in the back of a car, and Bond and Mathijs are talking on a balcony.

    To me there's no real place for this in the film's timeline. The break in the event (and the fight) took place at night, and then the tournament resumed. It couldn't have been the next day either as right after the tournament (and Bond's dinner with Vesper), Bond and Vesper are captured by LeChifre and tortured.

    So where does the 'bodies in the car' scene fit?

    The tournament was split over two nights. The scene in question was from the second day before the conclusion of the game.

    I figured as much, wasn't well signposted in the script though.

    Is that it? Lol
    Here is a question..after bond loses the First half of the game he asks for more money and is refused and he becomes furious and grabs a kife and conceals it behind his arm and rushes after le chifre.

    before bond gets to his target the CIA man offers him the money and bond cools off and resumes the game.

    What was that about ?

    Seems fairly obvious to me.
    Plan A was dead, so Bond figured he'd kidnap Le Chifre and work from there. Basically, we get the chair with the hole in it scene, only the roles are reversed. Or something like that anyway.
