Quantum of Solace is the sequel to Casino Royale. Daniel Craig's Bond is a reboot from all the previous films. Felix never died is LTK, and in the last few moments of the film, he was talking to Bond about getting his job back. Because the series was rebooted, the character was rebooted as well, creating a new Leiter with Bond.

(It's a Latino version of the pts. All I could find)
When Saunders is killed Bond says to Kara 'bad accident back there'....
If it wasnt for the SOLEX then TMWTGG really had no purpose to it,i think it was clever thinking,but if you dont live in the UK then you wouldnt really connect the real problem with the SOLEX.
This is why in LTK and QOS I find it necessary that the villain has a plot and an objective. If they have no scheme, they risk spending the whole movie on the defensive, running away from Bond.
@barryt007: Thanks for informing me of the background to the energy crisis in the UK! I had remembered Bond's question to M in the briefing scene about the energy crisis being still ever present, and I figured the Solex was definitely sought after by the British in order to solve their problem. I suppose my question is more along the lines of why Hai Fat and Scaramanga plot to steal it, and why is Scaramanga involved in the first place? I understand that Hai Fat needed Scaramanga to assassinate Gibson for him, who had the Solex, but after shooting Gibson dead, why is Scaramanga still Hai Fat's "junior partner"? This part is very murky to me- the only conclusion I've been able to reach is that Hai Fat wanted to sell the Solex off to the highest bidder, similar to Kronsteen's plan for the Lektor in From Russia with Love. That would enable him to earn a fortune on top of his already massive empire, for sure. The real question is how would Scaramanga profit in this scheme?
He would profit by exactly that,selling to the highest bidder.As Bond says 'The oil Sheikhs would pay him just to keep it OFF the market' as they were gaining by countries having to buy up their oil at high prices.
Also Hai-Fat made Scaramanga a junior partner in his organisation because he was his regular assassin,getting rid of all his rivals,so it was best to keep him close to hand in case one of those rivals used Scaramanga AGAINST him.So,as an incentive to help the organisation he made him a junior partner.

What purpose do the lights serve? Will the oil get lost without them?
For when they have to shut it off and do repairs and things like that.
Well, she's one of Drax's master women, so she probably would have been alerted to Bond visiting the glassworks. "Oh my God, he's actually here! What do I do?"

If you look at the space shuttle later with Drax's 'perfect race' she is there...so she is one of Drax's henchman in a sense.
She's also there when Bond is being strangled by Drax's pet python.
