"I will pay a visit to take your heirloom..."
"...the Star of Versailles, at 3 AM the day after tomorrow."
"Yours, Lupin the Third."
The Star of Versailles is a 50 carat diamond, right?
Yes. It is a family treasure that has been handed down for generations.
It's stored in this safe.
Good. I'm going to the ICPO headquarters...
...to decide on our strategy.
I'll see you at 3 AM the day after tomorrow.
Uh, wait a minute, Inspector!
What if Lupin shows up before that?
Don't worry, Mr. Fugo. Even though Lupin is a villain...
...he is a gentleman who keeps his word.
He will show up on time.
Bonsoir, Monsieur Fugo.
Who... Who are you?
Me? I am...
...Lupin the Third.
Lupin!
That's right. I have come for the Star of Versailles, as notified.
Would you mind handing me the key to your safe?
But the note said you were coming...
...the day after tomorrow at 3 AM!
I can't always stay true to my word.
Security gets pretty tight, you know.
Y....y...y..you coward!
I've become much smarter lately.
Hold it right there!
If you tremble that much, you'll never be able to kill anybody.
Killing someone, Mr. Fugo...
...is done like this.
"Two-Faced Lupin" (Futatsu No Kao No Lupin)
Inspector, is it true you found Lupin's fingerprints at the scene?
Lupin, are you watching?
You're no Robin Hood or gentleman thief anymore!
You're nothing but a cold-blooded murderer!
I am going to catch you...
...and send you off to the guillotine!
Keep your neck clean and wait!
I'm shocked! Pops is really furious!
We're furious, too.
Aren't we, Goemon?
Absolutely.
Lupin, when did you change your principles?
What? What are you saying?
Surely you guys don't believe I'm guilty, too!
Of course we do.
They did find your fingerprints.
Don't be ridiculous!
With the latest scientific technology, anyone can fake fingerprints!
Are you suggesting the culprit is an impostor?
That's right!
Somebody must have learned about the note I sent to Fugo...
...and made the move before me.
Well, we're already here in France.
The Star of Versailles is missing...
...so we'll move on to the next target.
The next target?
One of the richest families in France.
The Zenial Family treasure is a giant ruby necklace...
...called the "African Queen"!
It was a boring party, wasn't it?
Indeed, my only consolation is making your acquaintance.
Hold on, I'm not that easy!
I like to take things slow.
But I am a man of prestige and wealth.
What else could you want?
I need proof of your sincere interest in me.
Such as?
I heard you have a family heirloom...
Oh, what was it called? The "African Queen"?
That's not feasible.
I only bring the ruby out on special occasions.
Well then, I must be going.
Wait! Please!
Don't move a muscle, my dear.
6... 4... 7... 3...
Thanks for your help. Now I know how to open your safe.
Who... Who are you?
I am Lupin the Third.
I'll be taking the African Queen now!
Lupin!
You have a big mouth for a petty thief!
I'll turn your corpse over to the police!
If that's your attitude, I came prepared!
Monsieur Zenial?!
You saw my face, didn't you?
- Hey, Lupin! - What's your problem?
So, you insist that it was your impostor who killed Zenial?
That's right.
As soon as your name becomes known, out come the imitators!
It's hard being a celebrity.
But he said he was Lupin.
He had your voice, too.
Since he didn't look like me, there's no point arguing over it.
You are the master of disguises.
You could have easily changed your appearance.
Enough! What about you?
Trying to steal the African Queen without us!
That's a serious breach of trust! Right, guys?
Yes.
Anyway, as long as I suspect you of murder...
...I refuse to be your partner.
Damn nasty bitch!
I'll never ever help her again, even if she gets down on her knees!
Bonjour, Mr. Goemon, Mr. Jigen.
Oh, hiya, Dr. Nomil.
What's going on?
Mr. Lupin seemed to be in a foul mood.
Well, yes. We've got a minor problem.
Problem?
*Dr.Nomil's Residence*
- Good evening, Doctor. - Hello, Lupin. I've been expecting you.
Have a seat.
I am glad you came, Lupin.
It's been too long. Please have a drink.
Yeah...
I am your father's best friend, so just relax.
Excuse me for a moment. I'll get something to eat.
Go ahead and drink without me.
Monsieur Jigen. Monsieur Goemon. Come on out.
We'll start the experiment.
This is a one-way mirror.
Lupin cannot see us from the other side.
It's almost midnight, the time Fugo and Zenial were killed at.
Lupin's face has changed!
Sadly, my guess was right.
He has Disguise Syndrome.
What? Disguise Syndrome!
It's an illness which causes his face...
...and personality to change at a certain time of day.
Just like in the famous case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Are you telling us that it really was Lupin who killed Fugo and Zenial?
Unfortunately, I can't say otherwise.
But it's not his fault.
The most significant characteristic of Disguise Syndrome...
....is that the inflicted person is unaware of the condition.
Leave him in my care for now.
Why don't you two go back to your hotel?
Please take good care of him, Doctor.
You can count on me.
Everything went as we planned, Doc!
They trust you implicitly.
They thought those processed images were real.
Those two aren't hard to fool.
Indeed. Now we need to work on Lupin.
It's about time for the sleeping pill in the drink to take effect.
Step 1 is now complete.
Now we proceed with Step 2...
Good morning, sir. This is your wake-up call.
I didn't ask for a wake-up call.
What... What's going on? What the hell is going on?!
This is impossible!
I wasn't so sure about myself...
...so I set up a video camera before I left last night.
This will tell me who the culprit is.
Francine, sweetheart!
The dead woman!
Lupin.
You are so pretty, Francine.
What... What's wrong?
Wow, my face changed!
I murdered someone.
What's going on?
How horrifying.
I had no idea your condition was so far advanced.
Condition?
Lupin, please be calm and listen to me.
Unfortunately, it is absolutely clear now that you have Disguise Syndrome.
Disguise Syndrome?
You may not want to believe it, but for some reason...
...your personality and appearance change at midnight.
I want to cure you...
...but I am not sure it is within my power.
Oh, no...
Even the cunning Lupin...
...seems to have been taken in by our scam.
Yes, so no matter what you do...
...everyone will assume Lupin is to blame.
So far, the damages caused by Lupin amount to twelve dead...
...350 million francs in stolen cash, 200 million francs in stolen jewelry...
...and one stolen ice cream cone!
What the hell is going on?
Get a hold of yourself, Lupin!
Stop it, Jigen.
Lupin had no idea what he was doing.
It was his illness, not him.
Damn! What should we do?
Please kill me.
What!
The longer I live, the more people will die.
I'm begging you; go ahead and kill me.
Hey... That's impossible...
Please, Jigen, Goemon.
If you consider yourselves my friends...
Thanks, guys.
Lupin, prepare yourself!
That's scary...
You're a sore loser, Lupin!
Sorry. Force of habit.
Try again. Please?
This is ridiculous.
Forget it.
Please, Jigen?
No, I will have no part in this. If you want to die, kill yourself.
Hey, wait a minute.
Come on, you two! Wait!
This is my last resort. I have to hang myself.
Who did that! Who the hell interrupted me?
Forgive me, Lupin.
I can't let you die.
Shut up!
I have good reason to kill myself!
Goemon and Jigen told me.
Then why don't you just let me die?
I can't do that.
I have trouble believing you're a murderer.
So, I'm gonna make sure for myself.
Make sure?
What time is it?
It is... 11:58.
Fujiko, please get out of here.
What are you talking about?
In two minutes we'll find out...
....if you actually have Disguise Syndrome or not.
That's why I'm begging you!
Please leave! I might kill you!
I'll deal with that when it happens.
If you really are a serial killer, I will kill you.
And then, I will kill myself.
We should face death together.
Fujiko, sweetheart.
You mean you care about me that much?
We've known each other for so long.
Fujiko.
It's midnight exactly.
Lupin, you really do have Disguise Syndrome.
I'm sorry!
No! S-s-stop!
So you don't have Disguise Syndrome after all!
Yahoo! I'm alive! I'm alive!
I'm saved! I'm saved!
Fujiko, dear, thank you!
You saved me. Thank you!
A kiss of gratitude?
Come on! This is no time for fun.
We have to find out why Dr. Nomil lied to you.
*ICPO HEADQUARTERS*
Lupin changed!
That's Lupin!
Are you positive that is Lupin, Doctor?
Yes. His condition will become more serious...
...and the number of victims will increase.
You have to stop him!
Sorry to have kept you waiting.
How did it go, Doctor?
Did you successfully convince Zenigata?
Of course. I am a renowned psychiatrist.
Why wouldn't they believe what I say?
- May I take your order? - Uh, coffee.
Now, Lupin is definitely bound for the guillotine.
All that remains is for you...
...to have your face surgically altered...
...and our scheme will be complete.
We can live the rest of our lives...
...in luxury with the money we've stolen!
You'll get yours, Doctor. You'll see!
Welcome, Inspector Zenigata.
I lured Lupin out, as promised.
You mean, he's in that house?
That's right. Daisuke Jigen is with him.
Look! It's Lupin!
Let ME see!
You're right! I've finally found him!
It's... it's... it's... Disguise Syndrome!
J-J-Jigen has changed, too!
Poor thing. Jigen must have been infected, as well!
Inspector!
We have the house surrounded!
All right. Let's go!
You're under arrest! Follow me!
Mr. Zenigata, what do you think you're doing?
Shut up, Lupin! Jigen! You're not gonna escape this time!
Lupin? Jigen? Us?
This is some sort of a mistake.
You're wrong! I am not Lupin!
You can't fool me!
I saw you guys disguising yourselves.
Disguising? What do you mean?
Stop babbling! Arrest them!
W-Wait! What are you doing? I am not Jigen!
Let go of me! I'm not Lupin! I'm not Lupin!
Lupin, I've finally captured you!
I'm not Lupin!!
I am not Jigen! Are you blind?
We are not Lupin and Jigen! This is some sort of mistake!
Great job, Inspector Zenigata!
It's all thanks to you. I appreciate your cooperation.
It went brilliantly, Lupin!
Yeah. Pops had no idea we put special film in the binoculars.
He was one happy man.
But he did capture the serial killer and his puppetmaster.
It's all thanks to your help, Fujiko, dear. By the way...
...you said you would kill us both if I were the true serial killer...
...remember?
Yes, I remember.
So, do you still feel the same?
Fujiko, what time is it?
It's 12 o'clock.
You idiot! It's noon, not midnight!
So buy me lunch!
A villain by the name of Lawrence the Third
tries to extort money from an oil company.
So, as usual, I start working on a scheme to get that money.
But they end up forcing me to swallow a time bomb.
