Nick Nack and the sumos prepare to kill him, but Hai Fat intervenes and has Bond taken to a karate school to be killed instead. He is attacked by two sumo wrestlers and manages to fight them off, but is hit over the head and knocked out by Nick Nack, who was disguised as a miniature statue. The next night, Bond enters Hai Fat's estate to find the Agitator, unaware that Scaramanga still has it. Soon after, Scaramanga and Nick Nack ship out to the estate with the Agitator. Scaramanga assassinates Gibson as he leaves the club, and Nick Nack steals the agitator as Bond is seemingly arrested. However, the "appointment" is really a hit ordered by Scaramanga's employer Hai Fat on British scientist Gibson in order to steal his Solex Agitator. Nick Nack later passes James Bond as he's watching the Bottoms Up Club, an erotic club where Scaramanga has an appointment, but he dismisses him as just a vertically challenged passer-by. However, Scaramanga eventually manages to reach his gun and shoots Rodney dead.
The two antagonists are locked in an oversized shooting range in Scaramanga's island by Nick Nack, who taunts Scaramanga, as well as telling him that he locked the cabinet containing his guns, meaning he has to search for his legendary golden gun, which Nick Nack has placed at the centre of the maze (why he didn't simply lock Scaramanga in with no means to defend himself is unknown). The film begins with Nick Nack trying to having a gangster named Rodney kill Scaramanga. It is possible that Scaramanga had made the condition in his will is that Nick Nack can only inherit Scaramanga's fortune if he was killed by an assassin in a duel, which explains why Nick Nack never tries to kill Scaramanga personally and have to resort to hire outside assassins.
Scaramanga tolerated it as a means to practice his skills as well as keeping himself from getting rusty, but Nick Nack was also the sole heir to Scaramanga's estate if the assassin had succeeded, then Nick Nack would have inherited everything. Although Nick Nack was loyal to Scaramanga, at times he would hire other assassins to kill him. A distinctive feature of Nick Nack is his height, standing only 1.18 metres (3'11") tall. Nick Nack was an all-round personal assistant to Francisco Scaramanga, acting as butler, housekeeper, and chef (trained at Le Cordon Bleu), as well as a henchman to Scaramanga's criminal activities.
