Lupin III: Episode 0 - First Contact (2002) - full transcript

In New York City, a female reporter interviews Jigen on how he first met Lupin. The story takes place a long time ago. When Jigen was working for a mob in New York. Who has a sealed treasure that contains a scroll in creating a powerful alloy. Lupin tries to steal it countless times, but can't obtain the scroll, unless he has a special "key" to opening it. The story also reveals to how Goemon obtains his Zantatsuken and how Inspector Zenigata first encounter Lupin.

I won.

As you promised,
you'll have to tell me.

Why me?

I can't go with Lupin.

He just gets too busy
trying to seduce me.

Nothing gets accomplished with him.

I've already decided on the title.

It's "Lupin the 3rd:
The First Contact."

I've already got approvals
from a number of publishers.

About the encounter, huh...

If you think about it, meeting
a person can be a big deal.



It's like running into your ex
in a desert by coincidence,

but sometimes, it can change
your life like a game.

A stray cat.

What now?

I remember the first thing
I called him was 'stray cat.'

Let me put on some perfume.

I don't need that kind of crap.

On you.

Are you a stray cat...

Or a burglar cat?

Draw your gun.

Are you sure about that?

You'll pay for what you just said.

What a quick draw that was.



What a swift fellow he is.

I'll get you this time.

Bastard...

What happened in there, Boss?

Please say something, Boss.

Get rid of him.

Yes, sir.

Get out of my way!

Boss!

Please wake up, Boss!

Were you asleep or something,
Mr. Bodyguard?

Is he... What?

Who the hell is he?

He was the one who's after
the Boss's treasure.

His name is Lupin.
Lupin the 3rd!

Lupin?

Jigen Daisuke?

Right. His black hat
and combat magnum...

He is a true gunman who's nearly
the best among the dark world.

So what about him?

Nothing really...

Thanks a lot, Brad.

If he has been hired for Galvez,
the task will be tough to beat.

Brad, I have no intention of
starting a war with Galvez.

But, you are interested
in his treasure, right?

His treasure?

The secret within the
secrets of Asia...

It's Cram of Hermes.

Inside a metal tube that is
harder than diamonds, there is a...

scroll of alchemy that describes
how to produce that same metal.

Well, it's just a little paradox.

Since it supposedly
changed the course...

of military situations
during WWII,

the intelligence agents
from each country...

were seeking for that
otherworldly treasure.

So Galvez has such an
incredible treasure?

Not sure about the
details, but it's...

certain that he had obtained it.

You'd never know.

From what I hear,
recently there was some...

moron who got his
ass beat by Galvez,

when he tried to
steal the treasure.

Do you know the guy?

No, not at all.

I guess not.

I'll get the treasure.

You don't stand a chance.

You just wait and see.

I got this goddess of
fortune on my side.

Oh yeah?

Later.

You should just take
a rest for a while.

That bastard.

So he was waiting for a girl.

What do you mean?!

Are you going to let Jigen
get away for his slip-up?

Stop shouting at me.

Listen up, Shade.

As a matter of fact,
you've failed as well.

If it weren't for
Jigen, the treasure...

would've been stolen by now.

Boss, you are giving
him too much credit.

That's it, Shade.

No more discussion of this matter.

He failed, you know.

He doesn't deserve
his reputation as the...

fastest shooter
among the dark world.

Don't you have anything to say?

You bastard...

Shade.

Fuck!

You're Jigen Daisuke, right?

I'm sorry, but it happens
that if we kill you,

our reputations will improve
among the dark world.

Are you too scared
to talk or something?

Get lost, you punk.

I'm in a bad mood.

Asshole!

Oh no. What?

It's hard for me to
sleep without a woman.

Lupin!

What business would
the Galvez's cleaning...

service have at
an hour like this?

Shut up and give back the treasure.

The treasure?

Wait, I still haven't...

Don't fool with me!

There is no one else who can't
break open that electric lock.

It has been broken open?

That bastard...

I see. I guess we're looking
for someone else then.

Die, Lupin.

Cleaners getting cleaned...
What irony.

What the?

Did we get him?

That son of a bitch.

Brad! Brad!

Hey, Brad!

Brad!

Brad! Wake up, Brad!

Lupin...

Lupin.

Who did this to you?

Ever since I was a
kid, I had a thing...

for the sundown of this town...

But today it looks
totally blured...

Brad.

Brad! Brad!

Brad!!

Hold it there.

I can be impatient.

Well then, let me get a
glimpse of your face...

Ms. Fujiko Mine.

I don't reckon inviting
you into this room.

I see.

No doubt that Brad
was crazy about you.

Brad?

Who could it be?

Did you happen to forget
your boyfriend's name?

I can't bother remembering all
the names of men I've dumped.

Okay.

Then what is this?

Cram of Hermes...

It's the treasure
that Brad had stolen.

It was concealed in this room.

Don't tell me you don't know.

Where's Brad?

Let me see Brad.

Tired of being stuck in this
hellish part of the world,

he had left his hometown by the sea
and everything else behind...

By entrusting his dream in
that skyscraper over the sea.

I'm not interested in
your story from the past.

Where is Brad?

He's here...

Right in front of your eyes.

Right in front of my eyes?

Even though he was a
rival in business to...

me, I could not hate
the son of a bitch.

However, his goddess of fortune
put a hole in him this time.

Are you trying to
say that I killed him?

How ridiculous!

Is it?

If what you're saying were
true, I would've...

taken off with the
treasure by now.

It happens that the treasure
has a little secret to it.

It was arranged in a way that it
won't open without a special key.

I guess you didn't know.

So what's the problem?

How would a death of one man
or two make any difference?

Did you get close to
Brad just to steal this?

You're such a simple-minded man.

Can you even shoot a woman?

I guess it's not my problem...

But this one is his loot.

Your name is Fujiko, right?

The thugs from the organization
are bloodthirsty for it.

You probably want to run
as soon as possible.

I've been assigned the case of
Fujiko Mine, the domestic fugitive

by the Metropolitan Police
Department. I'm Inspector Zenigata.

Welcome, Mr. Zenigata.

I'm the director of the
state police, Crawford.

This way.

We've prepared you
a welcoming party.

A party?

I even got some good
looking girls for you.

Oh my... I'm just...

Dear customer...

I don't know if I should...

Okay, if you insist...

Please wake up, dear customer...

This plane has landed a while ago.

What?

I came all the way from Japan
and no one came to welcome me.

Please hurry up.

Okay, okay.

I'm coming.

Hey, taxi.

Could you get the door for me?

Hey, are you gonna get the door?

Does this seem like
a limousine service to you?

Can't you see I have my hands full?

Hey, there!

Oh my god!

Damn you, how dare you condescend
a Japanese police officer.

Are we there yet?

It's a stop sign!

Drug dealing openly in the middle
of the day is unacceptable.

Stay right here.

Hey, hey, hey!

Where are you going?

At least, shut the door!

Let me see that bag.

Who the hell are you?

I told you to show me.

Shut the fuck up!

You, shit...

I'm Zenigata from the Japanese...
no,

from the Metropolitan
Police Department.

Don't you forget that.

You, idiot!

Those men you cuffed were
our undercover agents.

That means...

Because of you,
all the effort we've put in our...

undercover investigation
for months has been ruined.

I acted by following my
instinct as a police officer.

If so, then you should've
come visited me first.

Then, I wouldn't be
fit for detective work.

Shut up!!

This is America.

Do not act without
my permission.

While you are here, you'd
better follow our rules, got it?

- Director.
- What?

I've a favor to ask.

What's that?

May I request the
information regarding...

my investigation as
well as an assistant?

Right. There has been
an official demand for...

cooperation from the
Metropolitan Police Department.

Don't worry.

We've got you a
special elite officer.

Thank you, sir.

Come in.

What is this place?

It seems like a file storage.

This is your work place.

This is the best
place for acquiring...

information regarding
foreign fugitives.

No, wait.

You should let me speak
to people at the crime scene first.

Nobody has that much free time.

Wait... ouch.

Get over it.

There is no use in
arguing with the director.

Just don't cause any more
trouble, please.

You are?

My name is George McFly.

I was asked to be your assistant.

Please to meet you.

I guess this isn't the one.

Where could it possibly be?

Master!

What?

Okay, we're leaving soon.

Yes.

We've finally found her.

You're hurting me.

Can't you be more gentle?

Good job, Shade.

No. I told you not
to touch my hair.

How dare you give us trouble?

Hmm? I remember you were...?

She's Brad's girlfriend.

I see.

So that's what it is.

Without the key,
it's just a piece of junk.

Don't you worry, dear.
We'll soon get the key.

Boss!

You, bitch.

I have the original.

This is from Lupin the 3rd.

Lupin?

I see. So he's Lupin the 3rd.

How dare you patronize us?

Spill it out.

Where is Lupin?

Is it your job to figure that out?

That's too bad. My job is to kill.

If you kill me then the treasure
will be Lupin's for good.

I ain't gonna kill you.

But instead,
I'll cripple your body so you...

will never be able to
go out public again!

W-Wait.

What did you mean by the
treasure will be Lupin's?

Lupin is also after the key,

so after he gets the key, we could
steal the whole package from him.

Do you mean you
could pull that off?

I'm the only one who
can steal his heart.

What do you want with us?

She is the one who tricked us!

As long as you'd set me
free, I'll be satisfied.

Interesting.

Fine then.

Boss.

Hey!

You, bitch.

I thought I was the last resort.

You are?

Didn't I tell you
to run right away?

So what happened?

Galvez told me to
return the treasure...

And he sexually molested
me all night long.

I envy him...

No, what a despicable
creature he is.

Sorry, I...

Where are you going?

Hold on...

You shouldn't move yet.

I wouldn't want to trouble you.

That's fine.

I expect you to
return a favor...

No...
Basically, it was my fault.

Don't worry about it.

I can see... anyway, you should
change your cloths quickly.

Where is the size double D?

You're so nice.

Why does it feel like I've
known you from long ago?

That's strange.

So do I.

Please, Lupin.

I'll be back after a quick shower.

What a player.

Hambargar?

That's right.

Don't make me repeat myself.

Hambargar?

I'm asking you to give
me that 'Hambargar.'

What's hambargar?

'Hambargar' means 'Hamburger.'

Hambargyar.

Hey, manager.

Fine. Forget it.

Can I get a burger?

Oh, yes.

Should I get just one?

Get me 10 burgers.

And two coffees.

You pay for your own food.

Hey, wait.

I don't need the change.

You didn't pay enough.

Doh!

Fujiko Mine.

Both her age and
nationality are unknown.

She was involved in
robberies of more 100...

valuable arts, precious
metals, and jewelries...

And currently,
she has fled overseas.

What a woman.

Now that I'm here, it's only a
matter of time before I arrest her.

Man, you eat a lot.

If I don't eat well, I won't
have enough strength to do my job.

You don't need any physical
strength for gathering information.

Shut up.

You won't get good
results like that.

I got my own way of doing things.

Is everyone in Japan so
dedicated to one's work?

How come you are happy-go-lucky?

Are you going to
take this seriously?

Time to work again.

I got my own way of doing things.

What's wrong?

Oh, so you've found the key.

The owner is
called Hans Dalahyde.

On the outside, he may be the
president of a trading company,

but in fact, he's got ties
to a smuggling organization.

He is a millionaire who's also
known to be a big art collector.

To us, he's our prey.

When will you do it?

It would be too boring
if we just steal it.

"Lupin the 3rd."

No.

Take an extreme caution.

Don't let the media
know about our affair.

There has been another
warning note about a theft.

Another warning note?

Here is the copy of it.

He even sent one to the
state police station.

Let me see...

At 9pm tomorrow, I'll steal the
otherworldly treasure from the...

Dalahyde trading company.
Sincerely, Lupin... Lupin the 3rd.

But isn't this going
to cause more racket?

That's probably what he wants.

What kind of a person is he?

Bastard...

If you're interested, then
we can check his record.

Do you know anything about Lupin?

Come on, we're in the file storage.

Lupin has left the warning note.

The time has come.

Anyhow, our work will begin
after Lupin makes his move.

I don't like it one bit.

Wait.

We've paid you a
large sum of money.

You better stop acting
without our permission.

I do as I wish.

I take no orders.

Are you quitting on us?

We also have ideas.

Interesting.

Could you show me your ideas?

That's enough.

Just let him do what he wants.

But... Forget it.

You won't be able to handle him.

Anyway, Jigen. Are you
gonna run away from Lupin?

Run away?

Running away?

We'll assume as so if
you won't finish Lupin.

Do you want to be known as a losing
dog for the rest of your life?

What the hell are you doing?

I wanted to drive around with you.

I could still put a big hole in
your chest from this position.

I could as well.

What a waste...

A man like you working
as a mafia's dog?

If I'm a dog, then you're a monkey.

You know, Jigen. I had a
hunch when I first saw you.

That you are not well
suited for an organization.

What are you trying say?

After all, we are very similar.

You're an overly friendly fellow.

Plus, your timing is bad.

I've just made a promise...

That I will kill you.

Finally, tomorrow is the day.

It's useless for you to come here.

I've already told
everything I know to them.

After we finish, what would
the organization do to Lupin?

I'm the one who's
going to kill Lupin.

All men are stupid.

Why do you get all worked up?

It's none of your business.

Hey, why don't we team up?

We can outsmart both
Lupin and the organization.

Because I've always
thought of you as...

I'm only competing with Lupin.

If you interfere, I won't
hesitate to kill you.

Chicken shit.

Do you think you'll beat Lupin?

Of course, I'll win.

I must be able to hear...

Hearing the sound of a
flute and a weeping voice

of the great sword
seeking its true master...

That warning note
was asking for a...

challenge to the
state police station.

If we failed to arrest
Lupin, we'll be a...

laughing stock within
the whole country.

Do not disgrace the
name of the state.

We must put a stop to
Lupin's crime and arrest him.

Listen up, everyone. America is...

Director... Stop that...

Please take me with you.

What the hell do you want?

I thought I told you
not to let anyone else in!

Within Lupin's affiliates, we
found a person called Fujiko Mine.

So what?

To avoid a public
disturbance, we'll...

keep our guard
undisclosed tonight.

We don't need someone
rowdy as you around for sure.

But... Get him out of here!

Director... wait...
please let me...

Director!

A mysterious thief named Lupin
who's been stirring up the public,

has given a warning for his
criminal activity once again.

On 9 PM sharp
tonight, he had warned...

that he would steal a certain...

piece of art from the main safe
of the Dalahyde trade company.

Today, our reporters
will live broadcast...

the scene by changing
the schedule.

What the hell is this?
Today, our reporters will...

live broadcast the scene
by changing the schedule.

Look. There's director Crawford.

The director of the state
police has just arrived.

Director... Director...
Please tell us...

Will Lupin proceed with his
crime as he has warned us?

What kind of plan do you have as
the director of the state police?

Do you have anything
you want to say to Lupin?

You shouldn't.

Just let me go.

What this racket?

Wasn't it supposed to be
an undisclosed operation?

It was Lupin.

What?

Lupin has also sent
warning notes to the media.

He keeps on pissing
me off more and more.

Director Crawford.

Do you have a time
for press conference?

There is no time for that.

But the Mayor is
expecting for you.

What? The Mayor is?

Yes, correct.

Right in here, sir.

In there?

Currently,
the Mayor is in the make up room.

Why not do yours as well?

Sure.

Let me through.

I'm a cop.

No, you can't, without
permission from the director.

But, I must... I said no...

Have you had enough?

If you hang around here, you'll
be scolded by the director again.

I can't overlook this after
coming all the way over here.

Isn't there any other way
to get into the building?

Don't be ridiculous.

Come on now. This isn't a place
for people to pass through.

Follow me!

Not a chance.

Hmm? Is that it?

It seems like it's
noisy outside but...

Crawford, I also have
many outstanding guards.

I don't need these
heavy securities.

No, Mr. Dalahyde. It's our duty
to protect the innocent citizens.

I have a lot of old
friends in the state police.

You know what will
happen if you fail.

There's no worry, sir.

There isn't even a tiny crack
that a mouse could get through.

I hope so.

Is that Lupin?

What the hell do you
think you're doing?

You're not being very careful.

There is nobody
guarding the path...

from the sewer
through the air vent.

- What?
- Hey!

Yes, sir.

Mr. Crawford.

Can you explain this?

Yes, ew... he is...

I'm Inspector Zenigata from Japan.

Please let me cooperate.

Yeah, that's right.

Zenigameh is a truly reliable man.

That's enough.

Having more guards won't
help at this point.

Watch this.

This is...

This safe has been specially...

configured so that
only I can open it.

Furthermore, the thickness of
the metal plate is 20 inches.

It's thick enough to block
a cannon attack from a tank.

Don't you get it?

Even without you people, Lupin
won't even be able to scratch it.

Only a minute away from
the crime warning...

It seems like a notorious
Lupin has given up.

No, he'll definitely show up.

Lupin is that kind of man.

It's just a rumor.

Come now, Lupin the 3rd.

It's that time.

I guess he had given
up as I expected.

An urgent situation...

The lights of the
Dalahyde building are...

being turned off
one after another.

Calm down.

Stay at your positions.

Oh, the safe seems to be untouched.

This voice is...

Good evening gentlemen.

This is Lupin the 3rd.

Hey you, come on out here.

As I promised,
I took the treasure right at 9PM.

What?

That's impossible.

As you can see,
the safe isn't open.

Lupin the 3rd makes
impossible, possible.

That's it.

I switched the treasure
with a fake one earlier.

A fake one?

It's only a tape player.

Oh, no! It can't be...

You mean this is a fake?

Okay. Let's have it
identified right away.

Wait a sec.

Where do you intend to carry it,
director Crawford?

No I mean Lupin the 3rd?

What? You mean he is...

What do you mean?

I was only going to
have it identified...

I won't be fooled.

Lupin is a master of disguise.

I was suspicious of
you from the beginning.

Reveal your true
identity, Lupin the 3rd.

Doesn't that mean you are
the most suspicious one?

What?

You have forcibly broken in here...

and have found the tape player,

and plus you're holding onto
that physical evidence...

Did you set that
player up yourself?

Don't be ridiculous.

In other words, he is Lupin!

Arrest him!

Damn it, I'm not Lupin.

Inspector, is that...?

Fire!

Lupin's over that way.

Hurry!

Yeah!

Lupin!

Lupin the 3rd!

Lupin the 3rd is flying in
the night sky effortlessly.

Has he succeeded as he had warned?

What? Director?

Damn you, Lupin!

An emergency order to
all police vehicles!

An emergency order to
all patrol vehicles!

Lupin the 3rd has escaped
from the Dalahyde building.

Repeat.

Lupin the 3rd has escaped!

To all the helicopters on the
watch. Currently Lupin is flying...

far up in the altitude on a
balloon and fleeing northward.

Rush immediately to the location.

Everyone's hard at work.

Hey.

Pursue that balloon.

But I was ordered by the director
to blockade the opposite direction.

Shut up... and pursue it.

So Lupin's notoriety isn't a hoax.

He has deceived the
state police splendidly.

Wait a minute.

If he had carefully planned this,

why would he have
used a balloon,

knowing that there
will be helicopters?

What's the idea?

You had me, Lupin the 3rd.

What did you tell me earlier?

I told you that the director
told me to blockade the path.

All the paths were already
blockaded before, Lupin.

Well done, Inspector Zenigata.

Hey, wait!

See ya!

You've done it, Lupin.

Shit. I'll get you.

Good work, Lupin.

You came out here to welcome me,
Boss. That's very decent of you.

You've done your
best to help us out...

and I want to show
our appreciation.

Don't do it.

You've already showed
me your appreciation.

What?

So you knew.

I've also got a present for you.

3... 2... 1.

Shit.

Damn it... after Lupin.

Chase after Lupin.

It's no use.

I won't be hit.

Oops.

Don't interrupt.

You, traitor!

It burns, it burns, it burns.

This is the climatic end.

You're highly skilled as expected.

Do you want this
treasure that badly?

All I want is to end your life.

Being popular is tough.

Why don't we settle the
score once and for all?

Fine.

I'm ready for it anytime.

You go first.

I'll do as I wish.

Your eyes were used to darkness.

You won't be able to do
anything for a while.

Shit.

You're late, Fujiko.

Oops.

I'm sorry, Lupin.

I'll have the treasure.

Fujiko, that's harsh.

Game over, Lupin.

You're a step too late.

Fujiko has already
taken the treasure.

You should worry about your
life rather than the treasure.

Sure thing.

You too, Jigen.

Too bad.

Did you think you could
outsmart us twice?

Damn it.

How dare you lock me up
in such a filthy place?

Galvez,
you won't get away with this.

I'll payback what you've done.

Where is the room service?

Hey, say something.

You're boring me.

You're pathetic.

What?

You're a pathetic fool.

What?!

You knew Fujiko would
backstab you all along.

You got burned on purpose.

Shut up. All because you wanted
to duel at a place like that.

Be quiet! I really hate
losers and womanizers!

I see.

As they say,
unpopular ones easily get jealous.

As an old saying goes, betrayal
is like an accessory for a woman.

What a crock of shit.

I'm going to sleep.

Go ahead and sleep.

Sleep so that you might
become less stubborn.

Don't you think it's about time?

You're clever enough to figure
the way out here, aren't you?

You know me well.

They didn't leave any guards
here. What a stupid bunch.

What would you do if
I untie those ropes?

I will kill you.

You probably would.

For the time being, why don't
we call it a truce for tonight?

What do you think?

I see.

That's a good idea.

Now, the contract has been signed.

I refuse.

What?

I don't want to cooperate with
my enemy just to save my life.

Who cares whether I'm your
enemy or not at a time like this?

Discussing how to escape
in a friendly manner?

Fujiko.

I see.

So everything has been calculated.

You should've practiced
getting through...

walls rather than
getting out of ropes.

Thanks to you, we've got
the key to open the treasure.

Now, let me have my
Cram of Hermes back.

What if I say no?

Then she will bloom red flowers.

Your joke's too much.

Don't you know she has betrayed me?

Well then, I won't hesitate.

Okay, okay.

I lose.

The stolen item is
in a hidden place.

You'll guide us to
this place later...

But for now, it's time
to kill off the traitor.

Hmm? What's the idea?

Lupin. Shoot Jigen with that gun.

What?

How about it, Jigen?

How does it feel to
be killed by your rival?

You only got one bullet.

Don't try anything funny.

Jigen, I'm disappointed with you.

On the top of failing
to kill Lupin,

you even betrayed
the organization.

You are a loser after all...

I feel like shit.

Go ahead, Lupin.

Don't be merciful.

Do it, Lupin.

Do you want Fujiko to be
killed before your eyes?

I'll do it.

Can't wait for you to die.

You, bastard!

Hold it.

Hey, boss.
Don't you want to kill your...

enemy before you
kill the traitor?

It's because I still have
to ask you about something.

If it's about the location of the
treasure, Fujiko knows about it.

What now?

Or are you too scared to kill me?

Alright then.

If you want to die that
badly, I'll take...

care of you first
as you have wished.

Aim carefully.

Boss.

Boss, are you okay?

Those bastards.

What is this sound?

Turn the light back on quickly!

I came to take the
treasure that you possess.

Who the hell are you, shithead?

I'm Goemon Ishikawa the 13th.

Ishikawa... Goemon?

Damn you.

Do you even know what that is?

Well then, let me tell you the
real name of this treasure...

It's called Zantetsuken.

Fire!

What a fellow,
he blocked all the bullets.

My... my treasure...

You won't be able
to handle this gun.

Oh, no. We're trapped.

That's the way... Oops.

Kill'em... Kill'em all!

Don't let them get away.
Not even one of them.

Take back...
Take back my treasure...

My treasure...
My treasure... My...

Bye bye.

Fujiko?

Get on!

How could I be help
by someone like you?

Just get on.

Just drop me off anywhere.

What are you mad about?

You're very stubborn.

Now, you're being
even more stubborn.

Look.

The Federal Reserve Bank...

An impregnable
fortress that has the...

most amount of
gold in the world.

So what?

It's my dream.

I can nail it if I do it with you.

Let's just give it up.

I won't go back
until I get some clues.

Don't you know we're in crime
central, where even a police...

gets shot if he's not with
a number of police officers?

It's the perfect place
for Lupin to hide at.

But I thought you were
after Fujiko Mine.

If I arrest Lupin, we'll be...

practically arresting
Fujiko as well.

But hear me out. Even if we
do our best here, that...

doesn't mean all the crime
in this world would vanish.

Is that what you think?

No... I mean...
The stench of cops.

I smell cops.

You have to pay the entrance
fee, if...

you want to walk
around this town.

Of course.

I mean this town is
like a safari park.

Hey, watch it...

How exciting.

I need to vent out my frustration.

Bring it on.

There was someone like that
3 blocks away...

Just a bunch of big mouths...

Hey.

Where are you going?

I'm continuing my investigation.

What do you mean?

If you want go home,
then go home by yourself.

I don't understand.

Why?

Why are you so dedicated?

I don't even know that myself.

But isn't that what
it takes to be a cop?

Did you witness the
strength of that sword?

Thanks to that, now I know the
secret of the key to the treasure.

In other words,
that sword is another...

Cram of Hermes that was made...

with the same
alchemic technique.

Thanks for taking care of me.

Hey, wait.

Your wounds aren't
healed enough yet to...

'The letter of challenge to a duel'

Well, what do we have here...

At the sunrise,
we'll have a duel...

over the scroll of alchemy
that you have and my Zantetsuken.

From Goemon Ishikawa the 13th.

That's the guy from the...

We'll settle our score as
well next time we meet.

Why does everyone want to fight?

I had enough of this.

Who's that?

That's Jigen Daisuke.

He's an incredibly skillful gunman.

Could he be Lupin's partner?

No, on a contrary,

he's a hired gun for
the Galvez family.

Plus, that samurai from earlier...

Maybe Lupin's not here?

Raid and we'll find out.

No, you should wait
for the reinforcements.

What if we lose him
before they get here?

Hey...

Police. Nobody move.

Hey, you're Zenigata...

You'd better cooperate, Lupin.

Shit...

Damn you, Lupin the 3rd.

That old man never learns.

Oh, no...

I told you.

Shut up...

All in nature... There is nothing
that this blade cannot cut.

What is this all about?

Be glad...

You'll be deported
back to Japan tomorrow.

That's ridiculous.

We are facing a serious
international crisis.

Shut up!

I can't let you interfere
with our investigation anymore.

Please take a look at this.

I've finally found
the trace of Lupin.

The trace of Lupin...

Garbage...

You probably wrote
this up yourself.

George, back me up.

Eh... I mean...

Behave yourself in there
until tomorrow morning.

Director.

George, please let me out.

I'm sorry but this is it.

George.

Are you gonna
leave it like this?

Are you really going
to leave it like this?

Shut the fuck up!

George!

You know this isn't right.

George!

Are you going to be the
witness of the duel?

I'll be your opponent.

Did Lupin ask you to?

No, he didn't.

I'm indebted with Lupin.

I don't kill without a reason.

I have one more reason.

I'm the one who will get Lupin.

Are you ready to
throw your life away?

Try looking into a
mirror and saying that.

Out of all the bullets,
only one of them scratched you.

That one shot could've been
my one-way ticket to hell.

Bravo!

Lupin.

That was something, you guys.

But let's not fight like savages.

You won't be able to figure out
which is the real one.

Damn you, Lupin. How dare you
fool me with such child's play?

It's unforgivable!

Oh, no...

Wait!

A magnet, huh.

He keeps on coming up
with lousy ideas as usual.

He's right behind me...

Lupin!

Shit!

Let me out.

Shit...

Oh... George.

You have inspired me
to get back in the game.

No way!

Stop!

Everyone look! Wow!

When are you going to stop running?

You too.

Why do you care for this thing?

We don't need two
Zantetsukens in this world.

I see.

Well then,
let's put an end to this fight.

Here I come!

It's liquid fuel that combusts
when it gets exposed to air.

You're supposed to keep your
best card until the end, Goemon.

Damn you...

Jesus!

Damn you, Lupin!

It's the mercy of a samurai.

Here, grab my hand.

I don't want any
mercy from an enemy.

Lupin! Did you?

I've been waiting for
this moment all along.

What?

That was the only way to open this.

You are the one
who taught me the way, Goemon.

You're really a
dumbfounding bastard.

The same to you, Goemon.

So you've finally opened
the key to the treasure.

Thanks to you...

And what business
do you have with us?

Shut up, Lupin.

I'm the one who will
have the last laugh!

Should we go for it?

Fire!

Fujiko?

Thanks for all the hard
work, Lupin.

I'll hold onto this for you.

I see. So you've also
brought these guys here...

Hey, Fujiko.

Can't you go any faster?

We're going as fast as we can.

Fujiko Mine?!

Stop!

Stop!

We finally meet.

Fujiko Mine, I'm arresting you with
the charges for numerous accounts.

Lupin.

If you mess around
with me too much,

even I could get pissed
off, Fujiko.

Oh dear. Now there's another one
to interfere with our business.

No, you're the one
who's interfering.

Fu... Fujiko?

Sorry, Lupin.

This is the way it has to be.

So you've switched sides
from Galvez to Fujiko.

If I work under
him, I'll end up as...

his cleaner for the
rest of my life.

We had to do this in
order to outsmart you.

I'm flattered.

Did you have to team up with the
guy who killed Brad for that?

What are you talking about?

Don't bullshit me.

To shoot through Brad's
thick-ass pendant,

you would need a gun
like yours at least.

He was little too resistant.

He wouldn't tell us
the whereabouts of the woman.

Die in pain just like he did.

Fujiko.

Fujiko. So you did it because...

Don't get any ideas.

I only did it because...

Oh, shit. Get outta here!

Oh, the scroll... Wh..what?

Now my work here is done.

Wait.

Are you leaving
without defeating him?

My path is the path of the sword...

If the fate calls for, we might
run into each other again.

Goodbye, Lupin.

Fujiko.

Am I going to see you again?

I hate womanizers.

I'm only interested in you.

Lupin...

I hate liars even more.

I'm not lying.

Lupin. You're under arrest.

Oh my... You were alive.

Hey!

Look, George.

I've arrested Lupin.

Hey, he is...

Shit! Damn you, Lupin.

Inspector Zenigata.

Thanks to you,
we were able to bring...

down the Galvez's organization.

At first sight,
I knew you were capable,

and my instinct was right.

He is Lupin.

Arrest Lupin at once.

Your mistaken.

I'm not Lupin!

Lupin the 3rd, huh.

I guess we've
struck out this time.

You mean this is
the end for you?

That ain't like you.

I'm not done yet.

If so then,
why don't you sign up for ICPO?

ICPO?

It's International Criminal
Police Organization "Interpol".

If you have that title,
you will be able...

to follow him
anywhere in this world.

I see.

You just wait and see.

Lupin the 3rd.
Even if I have to chase you...

to... I'll definitely
arrest you someday.

Why don't you drive?

That's poor service.

Now we're even.

How can you still
say things like that?

Why don't we chill out a little?

I don't want us to
ease up too much.

So what are we doing next?

Who said we could...

I just want to take
your hat off someday.

What a fantastic story.

That's a story from long ago.

So what happened to the metal
tube that had the treasure inside?

Why don't you ease up
on your fairy tale?

Yeah, really.

I'm not such a banal woman.

I thought the story was perfect...

To seduce a woman, that is.

What? How could this be?

I almost had it.

Sorry.

The time's up.

How can it be...

You mean the story you
just told me was...

Lupin!

Who the...
who the hell are you guys?!
