He also discovers a lab in which deadly nerve gas is kept that only kills humans. However, when the Defense Minister and M arrive, the lab is replaced by an elaborate drawing room. M angrily sends Bond to Rio de Janeiro to track Drax cargo, where Holly is captured. Bond learns that Drax plans to launch this toxin from a space station in globules that would kill all humans on the planet. Afterwards Drax will start a master race from children of young couples he has taken to the space station...
