Clouseau

Now, this time I'm going to stand on your shoulders!

What good will that do?

Clouseau

Because I'm taller than you are, you fool!

That's so obvious, he's bound to think it's a trap...

Yes, or it's so obvious that he's bound to think it can't be a trap.
...

It's so obvious, it's bound to be a trap.

Clouseau

That is why you'll never be a great detective, Cato. It's so obvious that it could not possibly be a trap.

Clouseau

But these aren't normal times. Cato. Someone just tried to kill me.

That's normal.

Clouseau

Ah, but this time, he thinks he had succeeded.

Sgt. François Chevalier

Why don't you get out of those wet clothes? You could catch pneumonia.

Clouseau

Yes, I know that. I know that. I will do as soon as I get home, provided that idiot Cato does not attack me first.

Sgt. François Chevalier

Why don't you just tell him not to?

Clouseau

Believe me, it's not that easy. I have given him instructions to attack me wherever and whenever possible, and it has now become a matter of pride with him to try to outsmart me. I guarantee that at this very minute, his fiendish little yellow brain is plotting some new ambush.

Clouseau

You keep talking about this Douvier.

Mm-hmm.

Clouseau

But Philippe, who is... who is-who is Philippe?

Philippe Douvier.

Clouseau

His son?

Whose son?

Clouseau

Douvier.

He has no son.

Clouseau

His brother, then?

His brother's name is Fred.

Clouseau

Then it has to be his father.

His father's dead.

Clouseau

Ah! Now we're getting somewhere. Then who killed him?

No one. He died of natural causes.

Clouseau

Then who is this Philippe?

Clouseau residence.

Clouseau…

One moment. [turns to Clouseau]. It's for you.
[Clouseau falls through the floor into the flat below] .

Clouseau
[to his neighbors]

Excuse me; I am wanted on the pheone [sic].

It's still for you, Inspector.

Clouseau

Chief Inspector. Allo?

I'm sorry! I thought you were dead, boss!

Clouseau

And so, in my memory, you set up this… this Chinese n––ie factory?!

Clouseau

Now I see why this building seems so familiar: Chief Inspector Dreyfus lives here! Wake up, Chief Inspector! No good. We must go to Hong Kong without him.

What do you mean, We? I can't go to Hong Kong; Douvier would shoot me on sight!

Clouseau

Not if he doesn't recognize you.
