It's the internal narration of a guy who likes to play with a blue ring octopus he names Octopussy, and then one day he lets it roll down his back and it bites him and he dies. Then Bond shows up and finds the guy he was supposed to kill is already dead. The end.
I get it. That said...Quantum of Solace is literally about someone telling James Bond a story, over dinner, about a British civil servant who married an air hostess.
