Commissioner [Inspector Zenigata and his Police Commissioner are eating in a Japanese restaurant in Colombia, Zenigata is rapidly eating a bowl of rice]
Mr. Zenigata... [Zenigata stops eating, surprised] eat slowly. Here's some pickled radish and marinated fish roe.
I'm so sorry. I haven't eaten lately.
Commissioner It must have been hard on you to be away from Japan for so long. You must have struggled so much with so little budget.
[upset]
Commissioner. [chomps on a radish, crying] Commissioner. I really am so lucky to have a chief like you!
Commissioner [hands him a handkerchief]
Your nose is running...
[blows his nose]
You've taken such good care of me, but I haven't been able to arrest Lupin! I, Zenigata, will give my life to...
Commissioner Well, about that...
I'll nail him! I promise!
Commissioner You're off the case.
Commissioner I've come all the way here to this God-forsaken town in Colombia to find you and order you off the Lupin case. It seems he is involved with a very important person. It's now a diplomatic affair on a global scale.
I don't quite understand what you mean...
Commissioner At any rate, this whole thing is way beyond us. Oh, I almost forgot. [hands a small document with Zenigata's name on it] Here's a special bonus from the Prime Minister. Wasn't your daughter's name Toshiko? She must have grown up by now. [chuckles] So let's fly back to Japan together.
I'm the only one who can catch him!
Commissioner Um... I know how you feel...
[shouting]
Chief! I insist!!
Commissioner It's an order!
[angrily growls]
Damn! [tears up the bonus, and kicks away the table he and the Commissioner are eating at] Then I resign, Chief! I'll go after him as a private citizen! [he storms out of the restaurant to the surprise of the customers]
Commissioner Mr. Zenigata!
[Inspector Zenigata stands on the outskirts of the city as the sun sets] [narrating]
He is definitely somewhere in South America. Lupin!
Commissioner [Detective Scott and his Police Commissioner are eating in a Japanese restaurant in Colombia, Scott is rapidly eating a bowl of rice]
Detective Scott... [Scott stops eating, surprised] Eat slowly now. Have some pickled radishes.
Thank you for bringing me here, but couldn't we have gone somewhere and had a steak?
Commissioner Well, I thought that this would be a... special treat for you. On your expense account, you could never go to a restaurant like this!
[upset]
Yah! [chomps on a radish, crying] Commissioner! I am... I really am... fortunate... to have a chief like you!
Commissioner [hands him a handkerchief]
Your nose is running.
[blows his nose]
I'm sorry, being treated so kindly by you, and not being able to catch Lupin... but I'll get him, even if it costs my life!
Commissioner Well, about that...
Commissioner No, forget about him.
Commissioner The reason I came such a long way to this little town in Colombia... was to order you to stop pursuing Lupin. He's got something to do with a very important man now. It's international... no, it... concerns the whole universe!
I'm afraid... I don't quite get what you mean.
Commissioner Well, anyway, the Lupin case is way above our level. Oh, that's right! [hands a small document with Scott’s "name" on it] Here's a special bonus for all the trouble you went through. [chuckles] You've been a way for a long time now, and your daughter has grown up. Now I came to take you back home with me.
I happen to be the only one who can capture Lupin.
Commissioner Oh... well, I appreciate how you feel...
[shouting]
Commissioner, I won't give up!
Commissioner That's an order!
[angrily growls]
Damn! [tears up the bonus, and kicks away the table he and the Commissioner are eating at] I resign! I'll go after him on my own! I'll get that Lupin! [he storms out of the restaurant to the surprise of the customers]
Commissioner Detective Scott!
[Detective Scott stands on the outskirts of the city as the sun sets] [narrating]
Positive Lupin's hiding somewhere here in South America...
Commissioner [Detective Zenigata and his Police Commissioner are eating in a Japanese restaurant in Colombia, Zenigata is rapidly eating a bowl of rice]
Slow down, Zenigata!
[stops eating, surprised]
Hm?
Commissioner Don't make yourself sick, my boy! Have some more pickled radish.
I appreciate the meal, chief, but couldn't we have found a place that served steak and potatoes?
Commissioner No, I wanted to give you a real treat--something special. On your salary, you'd never be able to afford a place like this.
[upset]
You're right... [sniffs, then chomps on a radish, crying] I don't deserve this! Commissioner... I really am... so lucky... to have a chief like you! [breaks down in tears]
Commissioner [hands him a handkerchief]
Stiff upper lip.
[blows his nose]
You're a real prince, treating me to dinner like this even after I let that lousy thief get away! But I haven't given up, sir, I'll catch him!
Commissioner Oh, well, about that…...
Commissioner You're off the case.
Commissioner Nothing personal. Actually... we're dropping the whole business. That's why I came to this Godforsaken town in Colombia – to find you and order you off the Lupin case. It seems our boy's involved with some pretty important people. It's a diplomatic affair, now... a lot bigger than you and me, Detective.
Would you repeat that? I think I'm still a little soggy.
Commissioner The Lupin case is finished. You got that? Forget about him. Oh! One more thing. [hands a small document with Zenigata’s name on it] A little something in the way of a bonus for all your efforts. Oh, you'll be happy to get home after all this time, eh! Your daughter's all grown up. Well, your plane leaves in a couple of hours.
With all due respect, sir, I'm the only one who can catch him!
Commissioner I know how you feel...
[shouting]
Chief, you can't do this!
Commissioner Wait a moment, now! It’s an order!
[Detective Zenigata angrily growls, and tears up the bonus. He kicks away the table he and the Commissioner are eating at]
Well, now it's confetti! I resign, chief! I'll go after him on my own! [he storms out of the restaurant to the surprise of the customers]
Commissioner I'm warning you! Come back here at once!
[Detective Zenigata stands on the outskirts of the city as the sun sets] [narrating]
I'm absolutely positive he's hiding here... somewhere in South America! They always end up somewhere in South America...
Commissioner [Detective Zenigata and his Police Commissioner are eating in a Japanese restaurant in Colombia, Zenigata is rapidly eating a bowl of rice]
Slow down, Zenigata! [Zenigata stops eating, surprised] You'll give yourself indigestion! Have a pickled radish.
I have no objection to nouvelle cuisine, but I would have enjoyed a big T-bone...
Commissioner I thought this restaurant would be a treat! Way out of your league! It's very expensive, and on your pathetic expenses...
[upset]
Yeah, I know! [chomps on a radish, crying] God, I'm really grateful, but I'm hungry as well! I appreciate... everything... that you're doing... but Wolf got away! [breaks down in tears]
Commissioner [hands him a handkerchief]
Stop that.
[blows his nose]
I mean, I don't deserve pickled radishes, peas and arsenic, or ants on a bed of cornflowers! I'll find him though, Commissioner!
Commissioner Since you mentioned it...
Commissioner Oh no, you won't.
Commissioner Zenigata, the reason I brought you to this Japanese restaurant, Colombia, was to tell you that the Wolf File is closed. I've been warned off by an important person in person. This case now has international, and quite possibly, interplanetary ramifications. I hope I make myself clear.
I don't get it. This case is all I live for!
Commissioner Come on, there are other hobbies for an experienced cop like you. But, we decided you... [hands a small document with Zenigata's name on it] earned yourself a little bonus for dedication to duty. [chuckles] You've been away from home a long while, and I was told – your wife's suing for divorce. So I'm here to take you back home.
But Commissioner, no one can catch Wolf, except me!
Commissioner Sure. I know how you feel, son...
[shouting]
I refuse to give up!
Commissioner Don't you yell at me! That was an order!
[Detective Zenigata angrily growls, and tears up the bonus. He kicks away the table he and the Commissioner are eating at]
I resign as of now! I don't need a badge to go after that creep! [he storms out of the restaurant to the surprise of the customers, laughing manically]
Commissioner You'll never drive your squad car again!
[Detective Zenigata stands on the outskirts of the city as the sun sets] [narrating]
My sixth sense is screaming at me that Wolf's hiding, here in South America...
Commissioner [Inspector Zenigata and his Police Commissioner are eating in a Japanese restaurant in Colombia, Zenigata is rapidly eating a bowl of rice]
Inspector...
[stops eating, surprised]
Hm?
Commissioner I know you're famished, but...
Commissioner Well, people are staring!
Sorry, sir, it's just that I've been living on my own earwax for a week, and er...
Commissioner Ah, spare me the details, Inspector. I understand. You suffered greatly, sacrificed greatly for this department, haven't you?
Commissioner There, there...
[chomps on a radish, crying]
You're so understanding! I don't... deserve a boss... like you... you're really the best! [breaks down in tears]
Commissioner [hands him a handkerchief]
Here, thank you.
[blows his nose]
You've been patient, and generous, and kind, and I still haven't been able to capture Lupin! But I never, ever, give up!
Commissioner Yes, well, um...
Commissioner It's all over.
Commissioner I've been sent all the way down here to Colombia just to order you off the case. Lupin's gotten himself mixed up with some major players this time. I'm afraid it's way over our heads, Inspector. It's a matter for the diplomats at this point. [Zenigata stares ahead, stunned] Inspector...
How can they... take me off this case?
Commissioner Well, as I said, the whole matter's completely out of my hands. Oh! By the by... [hands a small document with Zenigata’s name on it] a little bonus pay for all your hard work.
Commissioner Token of our appreciation. What was your daughter's name again, Toshiko? All grown up now, hm? [chuckles] Good life waiting for you back at home!
But I'm the only one in the world who can catch Lupin!
Commissioner [grunts apologetically]
I'm so sorry...
[shouting]
That's not gonna cut it!
Commissioner Why, how dare you!
[Inspector Zenigata angrily growls, and tears up the bonus. He kicks away the table he and the Commissioner are eating at]
Well then, I resign! I'll chase the guy as a private citizen! [he storms out of the restaurant to the surprise of the customers, growling crazily] Outta my way!
Commissioner Inspector! Get back here! Are you mad?
[Inspector Zenigata stands on the outskirts of the city as the sun sets] [narrating]
Okay, Lupin... this is IT! You, me! Sun of Colombia, ¡mano a mano!
