Samurai, that wasn't funny!
[Wolf and Jigen notice the Egyptian officers climbing up the side of the pyramid and closing in]
Hohoho! Soldier ants!
Get it, Wolf? Are you gonna be sensible?
[suddenly, a rope rises up next to him, creating a track for Wolf's motorcycle to ride along]
Aw, shit! Very tricky! [the chase begins as Wolf takes off on his motorcycle with Zenigata giving chase by foot]
I like it! Nice to see a guy getting in condition!
[Zenigata continues running after Wolf until he falls into a sand trap in his path]
Watch out for rabbit holes! [unintelligible farewell]
[struggling to maintain his composure as he climbs out of the sand trap]
The gloves are off! The hole you're gonna go down, you'll never climb out! [finally explodes in a rage after a moment] If you seriously think I'm giving up, you're badly mistaken, because I never give up! I'm Zenigata, the ace detective! I'll get you, scumbag!
The Pharaohs said the secret of eternal life, sought by the Emperor Xi, is concealed in what's known as the Wiseman Stone, handed down for generations from time immemorial.
And you believe that? You'd believe the Moon's a balloon.
Very funny. Maybe there are lots of pebbles on the beach, but you ain't gonna pick up many like this one. [passes the books to Goemon and Jigen] Smartass. Read it yourself.
The flea uses the dog to feed on.
It could be that Fujiko's the flea. [drinks from his wine glass] Guess who's the dog?
Pah! If you'll excuse me not laughing, I've got to go. [gets up]
All I wish to relieve myself of is your vulgar company.
[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?
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!
[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!
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.
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.
Oh... well, I appreciate how you feel...
[shouting]
Commissioner, I won't give up!
[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]
[Detective Scott stands on the outskirts of the city as the sun sets] [narrating]
Positive Lupin's hiding somewhere here in South America...
[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...
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]
[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!
Since you mentioned it...
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!
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!
Sure. I know how you feel, son...
[shouting]
I refuse to give up!
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]
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...
[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?
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?
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]
[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!
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.
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!
[shouting]
Chief, you can't do this!
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]
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...
