Now imagine that he's a lot less smug and a lot less interested in copping off with people than Sean Connery would be, an agent who's dedicated to his job but still has a very definite kind of charm and a fierce (but understated) intelligence. At this point he's still a young operative, in his early-to-mid-twenties, but he's got an obvious talent for what he does and a genuine curiosity about the bizarre events now taking place. The idea is that although Sabbath's the opposition in this story, he's not actually the villain.
