- Who is it? - It's me.
I don't know who "me" is since I have so many groupies.
Fujiko?!
Ay-yi-yi! Fujiko, why are you dressed up like this?
I'm going to Kyoransky's concert.
Kyoransky? Who the heck?
He's a musical magician and a genius conductor.
I had dinner with him the other night. He was indeed an adorable man.
I believe the word "handsome" is reserved just for him.
Sure, I know that I'm just a monkey-face after all.
Oh? Are you getting jealous?
Why should I be?
Would you all like to join me? His conducting is really worth seeing.
Listening to records is enough for us. So go ahead and enjoy it by yourself.
Oh, well. That's too bad.
Kyoransky is also well-known for waving a diamond-studded baton.
Guess what, Lupin?
I haven't told you this, but I've been a long-time fan of classical music.
What? I thought you liked Japanese ballads?!
Miss Fujiko...
I'd like to escort you. Is this all right?
You look wonderful. Very nice.
Oh, my...
Fujiko, I never told you this...
but I've got quite a few things to say about classical music myself.
It's your face that's classical, isn't it?
What do you mean by that?
"Funeral March for Lupin" (Lupin Sosokyoku)
Wow, it sure is an impressive baton.
See? I told you so.
Awesome. It would be worth at least 2 million.
Now that we've seen all there is to see, shall we catch some Zs, Jigen?
Yup.
They're so unsophisticated!
Amazing. The way he swings the baton is absolutely flawless.
Fire!
Wh-what? What? What?
Keep firing!
Lupin!
Ouch! Pops isn't playing fair.
Yeah, ambushing us like that with his firing squad!
Oh? It's over.
What the heck am I doing?
Bravo! Kyoransky!
Kyoransky is indeed a genius!
I have never been touched like this by a performance before.
Wonderful, Kyoransky! Bravo!
It was the first great performance I've heard in a long time.
Lupin, would you please play a record? Kyoransky's, of course.
Why on earth do you like someone like him?
Lupin, music is the supreme art form that humans have created.
Why did you leave in the middle of the performance?
You've gotta be kiddin', Fujiko.
Pops started shooting at us. Don't you remember?
What are you talking about?
Sheesh.
What's so special about him?
Die!!!
What is this?
Die! Lupin!!!
Hey, what... what are you doing? Fujiko, stop it!
Lupin, what did I?
I get it, Fujiko. You're being manipulated by Kyoransky.
I am?
That's right. I'll bet Pops is, too.
Don't go anywhere, Fujiko. I'm gonna take this with me.
Are you sure, Lupin?
Yes, I am. Otherwise, why would guns and rifles be fired...
in sync with the movement of the baton, right?
Which means, Lupin...
I found tonight's performance to be the greatest in recent years.
What was that all about?
What on earth was I trying to?
Not a biggie. You were just trying to kill us.
It's not cool to just get killed like this.
We should go meet him face to face.
Welcome, Mr. Lupin. I thought it was about time you came.
Why don't you come on in? It's not locked.
Mr. Lupin.
Thanks for your invitation.
Who the heck are you?
I'm the conductor of the International Philharmonic Orchestra.
Then why are you trying to kill us?
"Better safe than sorry," Mr. Lupin.
What's the "better safe" stuff mean?
I've covered my baton with an expensive anti-theft insurance policy.
But I still wouldn't like to have it stolen.
I'm not interested in stealing a thing like that.
Why did you come here, then?
I wanted to solve the mystery of how you manipulated Fujiko and Goemon.
So, have you solved it?
Well, I'll figure it out piece by piece.
Mr. Lupin, your exit is that way.
Huh? Oh, thanks.
So the entrance and exit are separate, huh? Damn!
What is it?
Whoa! O-Open! Open! Open!
Kyoransky! I'm gonna make you pay even if I have to stand on my head!
The grand finale is yet to come. Your life is hanging by a single thread.
Chief! I've got something important!
What's the matter, Lt. Zenigata?
Sir, according to a report from Mr. Kyoransky...
Lupin snuck into his mansion last night.
What?! Reinforce the security right away!
If the diamond baton ever gets stolen, it will be my responsibility!
Will you give me permission to use the bazooka and tank units?
Permission granted!
Thank you, sir!
Mmm, that Lupin...
OK. We're ready to shoot "The Concert on the Grass."
Camera One, are you ready?
Ready?
OK!
Sir, we're ready now. Action!
Lupin, we already know about your disguise.
Pops! You should've let me know sooner!
Say whatever you want, Lupin!
This is it for you today. Now look behind you.
Lupin.
Mr. Lupin. Now we can have a wonderful concert.
Lupin! That bastard!
Jigen, even I thought that was it for me this time around.
He swung the baton in such an elaborate manner...
before sending a cue to the orchestra.
I'll bet that's part of the trick.
Wow, it looks pretty good.
My cinematography ain't half-bad.
I see. It's a dog whistle.
Jigen, listen to this.
The diamond baton emits an inaudible, dog whistle-like sound...
that stimulates people's hearing and hypnotizes them.
Listen. Right here!
Yeah.
After that, when the music starts, people are suddenly inspired to kill me.
The dog whistle sound must be hidden in the records, too.
Let's check it out.
A Night on Bald Mountain
Let's see. Connect this to the audio meter...
One, two, and go!
Look at that! It moved! It was from the video.
It'll move again. This time it's from the record.
Lupin!
I'm gonna die if I laugh this hard!
Die, Lupin!
I had a feeling this might happen. I'm glad I took the bullets out.
Lupin, prepare to die!
I gave it a little "adjustment," too, Goemon dear.
Die, Lupin!
Ugh! Wait, wait, wait a minute!
That's bad, just really bad. Don't do that. Please. I'm begging you.
My goodness!
I pulled a little trick there, too, Fujiko. Just a little bit.
Only because my life was in danger. So... here you go.
You pervert!
I'm sorry. Of all things, I tried to kill you.
Don't mention it. More importantly, look at this.
What is it?
It's a ladle for cooking.
Don't tell me you're gonna face off against Kyoransky with this, are you?
You bet I am. Why don't you cover your ears?
Cover your ears!
Right. That'll do.
There!
This one has more volume than the baton, which means...
Kyoransky!
Don't be surprised at being scooped up by a ladle!
Mr. Lupin, this is coming to an end, just like there's a coda to a song.
Looks like it.
Then, as a funeral march for Lupin...
I, Momanitt Kyoransky, will play Beethoven's Symphony No. 3.
Before that, why don't you tell us who you really are?
Fine. My father, Momanitt Mulchy, was a jeweler.
He was killed in Italy by you, Lupin!
In that case, he must've been a criminal, right?
I have no recollection of him.
To avenge him, I became a conductor and came to this country.
Now go to hell with this funeral march.
Let's face off fair and square, Kyoransky.
What do you think you are doing?
I've already solved the mystery, Kyoransky.
You manipulate people with your baton...
which creates a dog whistle-like sound.
But yours can make only a single tone of sound.
On the other hand...
my ladle has, one, two, three, four... let's see... as many as 25 holes.
So, mine is a far better dog whistle.
You idiot. Theory and practice are not the same. That's how life goes!
Then why don't we give it a try?
Start!
Fire!
Huh? Lupin?!
Lupin, what on earth have I done?
Don't ask me. Ask the violin.
Once again, I put myself in prison.
What I'm really after is... you'll see when you watch the next episode.
But the security system in this place blew my socks off.
I'm beginning to wonder if I can safely break out of this place.
The next episode is "Everybody Loves Ramen" (The Last Gift in Prison is Ramen Noodles)
See ya!
