[as Zenigata, in the dying Mr. Steel's body, chases his own body, Lupin drives past in the Mercedes]
Pops! Work harder, will you?
L-Lupin!
[Lupin accelerates, and so does Mr. Steel]
Wait!
[Gradually he slows to a walk and finally collapses, dropping his handcuffs. It's curtains for Zenigata... probably]
Pops, where's your parachute?
I don't need it to arrest you!
Let go, Pops!
No way in hell!
[They float down past Red Arrow, who kicks Zenigata, sending him falling into the water, taking Lupin's pants with him]
[Lupin prepares to exchange the detonator for Fujiko]
One...
Two...
[Fujiko reveals herself to be Zenigata in disguise]
Three!
[Zenigata searches Lupin, emptying his false foot]
Pops, is that big aeroboat going to fly?
Yes, today they will test it.
I see, that's the story behind that Albatross spark plug thing. [Zenigata grabs his face and pulls hard] Ow! Ow! Stop it!
Oh, it's in here?
[Zenigata pulls off a fake hairpiece from Lupin's head]
It's not my fault.
[Zenigata looks in bewilderment as the hairpiece starts to fizzle, and finds out too late that it's a flash grenade]
[Lonebach floats through the air with Zenigata clinging to him]
I've never seen an atom bomb like this.
These bombs are real, I tell you!
Then let them explode!
No! No way!
Yo, Pops, are you alright down there?
[poking his head through the bars] Lupin, how dare you! Don't move! I'm going to get you right now! [He realizes his head is stuck and manages to pull it back through the bars. The barge starts moving] Stop that!
Next time, pick a better trap for me! [He laughs loudly]
[angrily shooting at Lupin] You think it's so funny to make a fool of me?
[The gang finds Zenigata hiding in a bush with a recording device, sobbing]
Well, now. Pops, what are you crying about?
Lupin, I've never been so touched like I am today. I really respect Jigen's decision. He is a man among men.
What?
Listen, Lupin. I'll let you go until Jigen does his job. Go for it, Jigen! I'm rooting for you!
[He marches away, singing the theme to Star of the Giants]
[disguised as a messenger] Inspector, I've got news for you.
Regarding Lupin?
Yes. He's targeting a bank at the Hexagon City.
[Zenigata laughs eagerly and snatches his coat]
Give it.
[He dashes out the door]
Dickhead, you'd better be positive about this.
I hate it when people call me that. I'M VERY SENSITIVE ABOUT MY HEAD! Bastard!
[in thought] Sure you are... penis with ears.
ICPO approved the use of six tons of pure gold for this operation. And the operation failed. Naturally we have to take the blame for it.
[crying] Because of my failure... I apologize.
You don't have to apologize to me. What's done is done. And you're not an Inspector anymore. Forget about Lupin and go back to Japan.
Director Aran, thank you for everything during my time in the force. [He walks away in tears]
[Zenigata is stuck on a magnet, with Budweiser pinned between them. He strains to pull himself loose]
Ouch! Let go of me!
Sorry, doctor. I'm doing the best I can. [He tries to pull himself away] Damn you, Lupin! He tricked me into wearing a suit of armor because of this magnet. [He gets his right arm free] Damn it, I can't get loose! [His left arm is now free as well. He continues trying to heave himself away. Some time later, Zenigata is fully free. He runs out of the safe and looks around] Alright, Lupin! You're mine! [He sees a glass case with smouldering ashes coming from it] He tricked us with this smoke, saying that it's poisoned gas! Wait a minute! He made us believe that he left through the tunnel... But he's actually probably gone to the roof!
Minister, you don't have to go about this in a roundabout way. If you leave it to me, I can arrest Lupin right now!
Inspector Zenigata, if you really could arrest him so easily, Lupin would have been in prison long ago.
Huh? Well... Yes, but...
Suppose you arrest him. If Lupin then escaped from jail, it would hurt my presidential campaign. Listen, you must not try to arrest Lupin without my permission.
Yes. I, I... I understand, sir!
Ah, Inspector, look out! It's dangerous to lean over so much! This is shark infested water!
[arrogant and insistent on searching for Lupin] You fool! If you're scared of a shark, you can't arrest Lupin! [The boat leans to the side, sending Zenigata falling over the railing and towards the water. Lupin throws a rope out with a wooden block attached to it, causing the Inspector to dangle just above the water. He sees the guard is right, and there are indeed sharks in the water] Hey! Get away! Stay back! [The sharks jump at Zenigata] I'm not tasty! Don't come! Help! Pull me up!
[pulling Zenigata up] Geez, what a troublesome old man you are!
You're too nice. It'd make the job easier if you left him as shark bait.
[Zenigata sees Lupin ride away on a shark]
What?! He trained a shark?! That's a Nobel Prize-level trick!
[Out on the sea, Lupin still thinks he's riding a shark-shaped boat]
Huh? I can't control it. What happened to this machine? [The shark dives out of the water] Huh? Th... This is a real shark! [The shark dives in and out of the water] Whoa! He-help me! [It dives in and out again] Jigen!
Prince Adam, this woman is part of Lupin's gang!
She isn't. Fujiko is my governess!
Your governess? Fujiko? [He bursts out laughing]
