Lupin The 3rd (1977) s01e19 Episode Script
Episode 19
The France Fair we've all been waiting for will soon be opening in Tokyo.
One of the most anticipated exhibits consists of items that used to belong to the infamous thief Arsene Lupin.
Items of Grandpa's, huh? Right, his silk hat, eyepiece and mantle.
Inspector Ganimard, here to head the security of the France Fair, has just arrived at the Haneda Airport.
Mr.
Ganimard is the grandson of Inspector Ganimard, the arch enemy of Arsene Lupin and apparently another reason for his coming to Japan is to arrest Lupin the Third.
Ganimard the Third? What can some rich boy from France do? By the way, Mr.
Ganimard Did you know that Japan's own Inspector Zenigata has dedicated his life to arresting Lupin? Yes, of course I knew.
However, it seems that for some reason Lupin always manages to escape him.
Is that so?! Then, you're confident that you'll be able to end this feud that has lasted for three generations? Of course.
If not, I wouldn't have come all the way here to Japan.
Hear that, Jigen? Diligent, ain't he? Coming all this way just to be humiliated.
That's right.
The special items are here for just that reason.
It should be obvious.
Arsene Lupin's belongings, which are worthless in and of themselves were included only for one reason: To serve as the bait in my mousetrap.
Say what?! Worthless in and of themselves?! How dare you trashtalk Grandpa's stuff! Unforgivable! Are we gonna do it? Damn straight we are! I see.
It's the third generation versus the third generation, then? This battle of the century will no doubt prove interesting.
Good luck to you.
Which of the Third Generation Will Win? "The France Fair - Opening February 27th" Ah, Monsieur Zenigata! Welcome! I thank you for your cooperation.
I am Inspector Ganimard.
The Ganimard family has battled the Lupins for three generations.
I know all that! Please explain your security plan to me without delay.
Very well.
There is a total of four doors to this assembly hall.
We'll seal two of those.
We'll use that door as the entrance and that as the exit.
However, Inspector Ganimard Even if you have only one entrance and one exit, anyone, including Lupin, can still walk in at their discretion.
Exactly.
I want as many people as possible to come to the France Fair Including, naturally, Lupin the Third.
Say what?! You don't seem to realize he's not just any ordinary robber! Stop kidding around! I'm not kidding.
This whole hall will serve as a giant mousetrap for Lupin.
This place will be filled to the brim with jewelry and other riches Lupin so loves.
In addition to that, the belongings of Arsene Lupin.
Yes, that is the bait.
As long as we maintain heavy security Naive! Way too naive! He's Lupin! Lupin the Third! I know that man well! Your common sense strategy won't work against him! It's not "common sense"! It's logic! Yes, I'm challenging Lupin with logic and science! And I will stake my honor on it! Well, that's fine.
You do it your own way.
What about the display items? They'll arrive in Yokohama tomorrow morning.
Monsieur Zenigata, what is that? "On the opening day of the France Fair "the belongings of Arsene Lupin shall be claimed by his grandson Lupin the Third.
" Pasting this on the box before it even arrives How sneaky.
Damn it! Lupin, Ganimard and Zenigata are going into the warehouse.
Roger.
Well, then, if you please No wonder you're proud of this warehouse.
No no, it's still too early to be impressed.
These bars are made from a special metal.
It's simply impossible to cut them.
Be careful! What do you mean? Observe, Monsieur Zenigata.
Laser beams, huh? What do you think? Perfect, isn't it? Still, our opponent is Lupin! The storeroom may be well secured, but he may make his move during the transportation Do not worry yourself.
This is going overboard Way overboard! It's a waste of taxpayer money! This is not "going overboard".
This is science! This is logic! The best security is created through science and logic! He sure is full of it.
In other words, it's just a hunt-and-trap plan utilizing heavy weaponry.
Three days to the fair's opening, huh? Anytime you're ready, Lupin! The blood of three generations of Ganimards is stirring inside me! Hi there, Inspector Ganimard.
Lupin the Third? Yep.
Pleased to meet you.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for bringing a most wonderful gift for me with the France Fair.
That's quite some confidence you've got, Lupin the Third.
Think you can you beat my logic and science, right? Well, we've got three days until the opening.
Let's enjoy this game.
- See ya! - Wait! Violence's no good! Violence's no good, I say! This is where the battle must take place.
Using logic, science and talent, right, Monsieur Ganimard? Well then, bon jour! That's right, Monsieur Zenigata.
All of the country's dignitaries will be attending tonight.
I'd like for you to be there.
Here's our chance, Lupin! It looks like your plan's going to work.
Oh, you don't say? This time, I will catch Lupin! Really, it's been a while since I last impersonated Pops Zenigata.
We've got trouble, Inspector Ganimard! What is it? We just got a call from Lupin.
And then? He said he has already taken the riches from your warehouse! Th-that can't be! That can't be true! Even Lupin couldn't have, not from that warehouse Inspector Ganimard.
We need to open and check the boxes, and have precious little time.
Let's hurry.
Open it! Open it right now! It doesn't look like anything has changed, does it? Did you forget? You'll be burned to ashes! Uh, well, I was being a bit over-enthusiastic.
Hurry up and shut down the lasers! The seals have been left as they were It's okay This one This one, too Thank goodness! Still, Inspector Ganimard, knowing him he might have replaced the goods with imitations.
Please call a jewelry appraiser! Knowing this might happen, I've already called for one.
He should be arriving soon.
I see Well? How is it? It's all right.
They must be genuine if they're this shiny.
Isn't that so? Well? Well, this certainly would be a fine batch of riches, if only If only what? If only they were genuine, I mean.
Wh-what?! Sorry to break it to you, but these are nothing but forgeries.
Fuh-forgeries?! As I feared I can't believe this! Oh, mon dieu! Don't let it get you down, now.
I know well how you feel.
This always happens to me, too.
Inspector Ganimard It's not the end of the world.
Please cheer up.
Where did Inspector Ganimard disappear to? What? We still don't know? Really, I wish he'd stop acting on his own and causing trouble for others! No helping it! I'll have to take charge of the investigation in his absence! Well, in any case, we'll store the forgeries at the police headquarters for now.
Whatever you say.
All right, take 'em away! Looks like we're gonna make it.
Hurry it up! Hurry! Come on, let's go.
They sure are late.
I wonder if they can pull it off Lupin, uh, I mean, Inspector Zenigata! Inspector Zenigata! What is it? A real patrol car is headed your way! Get out of there! What's wrong, Monsieur Zenigata? Uh, well, we should hurry this up.
They've called a meeting to discuss the situation.
I'm Zenigata of the Metropolitan Police! Another one! Inspector Ganimard! Uh, there's another Inspector Zenigata here Th-that can't be! Could it be Lupin? All right, I'll go check it out! Damn it! All right! Inspector Ganimard, I have captured Lupin! I can't believe this.
A man like you, Inspector Ganimard, falling for such a common trick of Lupin's Zenigata-kun, aren't you being a bit rude towards our guest? Oh, right would you mind giving Ganimard-kun all the information you have on Lupin? What? Chief! I've poured blood and sweat into collecting that information! I will not hand it over to anyone! Records of failed attempts to arrest Lupin won't do me any good.
I guess they don't quite compare to the records of failed attempts to arrest him over three generations, eh? Very well! Let us see which one of us will be able to capture Lupin! You're on! It's about a 90-minute ride from the warehouse to the exhibit.
That's when we must act, if we intend to.
Still they'll see that coming, won't they? Right, Lupin? Hmm? Yeah The other option is to do steal them from the department store.
The department store is Ganimard's mousetrap.
And that's why it has to be during the transportation.
Right, Lupin? Hmm? Yeah Are you listening, Lupin?! Hmm? Yeah Oh, well, as long as I've got this A police truck just pulled up.
Uhu Ah, there's Zenigata! There are cops going into the warehouse.
They're probably adding some more security guards.
That's not it.
Lupin, take a look.
Running out of storage space, huh? Right? They're moving out the display items.
Just wait, and a change will present itself.
Still, they weren't supposed to be moved until tomorrow.
They purposely leaked out false info.
What they were really planning was moving them secretly tonight.
No one would guess they were moving the stuff if they used a single truck without any escorts.
Zenigata's planned this out pretty well.
Lupin, this is our chance! Let's do it! I'll pass.
Why? I just don't feel like it.
Then I'll do it myself! That Lupin I'm not going to share one bit of the loot with him.
See anything? There's a white car following us.
- Let's do it! - OK.
Retreat! Ooh, this is the stuff! Lupin's gonna regret not coming! Don't move! Oh, no! We did it! Hurrah! In your face, Ganimard! Lupin's not here? Where's Lupin?! Eating beans.
Beans? It's Lupin! Damn it! Damn you, Lupin! I guess this makes us even, Monsieur Zenigata.
You don't have to exert yourself, just make sure the items reach the exhibition safely.
That's enough.
The victor will be decided at the exhibition.
What do you think? Even Lupin couldn't pull anything amid all this.
You can't arrest him this way either, though.
Quite a surprise, innit? It's like we're watching a war movie or something.
This is science and logic? Giant warehouses and armored transports utilizing insanely heavy weaponry is what this is.
Utilizing heavy weaponry is what I'm thinking about doing myself Eh? Really? So you're finally feeling up to it, huh? There'll be a crowd this time, so they won't be able to make their move that easily.
Your Walther, my S&W, Fujiko's Schmeisser and just to be on the safe side, I got this.
See? That's "utilizing heavy weaponry"? Hmm, it does seem a little lacking.
If only we had a tank or two In any case, the only option we have left is taking on that mousetrap and that's not going to be easy.
We could just call it quits, too.
- We've already missed twice.
- Time to wake up You call it quits, then, Jigen.
I've already got it all planned out, though.
Right, this is the special attraction of the France Fair! "10,000 yen payment - Part-time job for students, apply inside" You all will get to appear on national TV! Even your far-away relatives will surely get to see you! Those of you who have worked with the riot police before, raise your hands! Those of you who can speak French, come this way! It's Lupin! Lupin's here! Lupin the Third has appeared! I'll go! please take care of the security! What was that? You should just stick to the defense! Please wait! Lupin is mine! The honor of the Ganimard family name is a stake! Rubbish! We've arrested Lupin! You can't escape now, Lupin! Unlike Ganimard, I didn't make the mistake of limiting the security to the exhibition hall eh? What's this? Arrest him! Lupin! Lupin! Lupin! Damn it! Arrest them all! Lupin sighted! Lupin arrested! Another Lupin sighted! Just how stupid can they be? "Lupin, Lupin"! How many Lupins can there be? It's Lupin! Arrest him! Yes, sir! Reporting in! We've arrested 30 Lupins here! Idiot! There are 100 more over here! Arrest them! Arrest every single one of them! Somebody please secure the display items! Yes, sir! We're on it! Damn that Lupin! Grandpa.
Let's go home.
The display items, are they? I'm the real one! Let me go! I'm the real one! You've really done it now, Lupin! Science and logic my ass, you imbecile! See ya, Pops! Damn you, Lupin! Now then, the next episode! I heard that there's someone who uses warning letters just like me.
Investigating him, I arrived at a mysterious island.
That someone works just like me! The reason is that the notes of Arsene Lupin are there.
I've gotta get it back.
No matter what.
"Catch the Fake Lupin!" You've got the channel set! Plough through the red waves that wind around my feet The machine screams It's like a crazy morning light Walther P-38 in this hand The things that I hold in my hand they all disappear It's fate Lupin the Third
