SYDNEY
Flame throwers pose no problem for it.
Even the threat of dynamite...
...is inconsequential.
And for attacks from the above...
...there's a powerful sleeping gas.
What do you think of this perfection?
Even the skilled Lupin will be baffled.
Inspector Penguin, you don't understand.
Huh? Understand what?
The man named Lupin! He's the kind of guy who does what he says.
What, Mr. Zenigata? Are you saying that this truck armored with rock-hard metal...
...the culmination of the intense efforts of the Sydney Police, could be destroyed?
Yes. For Lupin it will be easy.
What? What?
He is a man who makes the impossible possible.
He is a genius thief, a man among men...
...good-looking, intelligent, and very healthy.
Shut up!
Are you, a police officer, taking sides with a thief?
- I was just telling you the truth.
- That's the kind of...
But isn't it a little much to describe him as good-looking and intelligent?
Huh?
How could a fat-faced monkey like you possibly be good-looking?
You little...
Hey, you're...
Hi, Pops. I was just saving you the trouble...
...of viewing the demonstration on how the armored truck works.
You're Lupin!
Lupin, you are under arrest.
Well, Pops, see ya!
Hot, hot, hot!
Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot!
"The Vanished Special Armored Truck" (Kieta Tokubetsu Soukousha)
Hey, Lupin. Isn't it impossible to attack that armored truck?
You said even birds can't get near it.
I don't want to become a grilled chicken yet.
Hey, are you listening to me?
Or was it so frightening that you can't even respond? Huh?
Be quiet. Jigen, just shut up and drive.
Ah, now we're stuck.
Jigen, I got a great idea.
What?
Just wait and see. We'll take the armored truck, too.
One sheep, two sheep, three sheep, good night.
*Sydney museum*
I'm against it!
Why is that, Mr. Zenigata?
Listen, now that Lupin has infiltrated the secret factory...
...I tell you it's dangerous to transport this with the armored truck.
What is it now?
Even Lupin doesn't pose a threat to the armored truck.
You underestimate him! You're take Lupin too lightly.
- Ouch, ouch! - Damn you!
What are you doing?
Oh, excuse me. I thought you were Lupin in disguise again.
Understood. OK, have it your way.
I'll do whatever I want, too!
Inspector Penguin, is everything really all right?
The 50th National Foundation Day celebration is tomorrow in Darwin.
I know.
The Sleeping Lion, the symbol of our Australian continent...
...is worth several billions. If it were to be stolen by a petty thief like Lupin...
Don't worry. We will deliver this to Darwin unharmed and in time for the festival.
That stubborn Penguin bastard never listens to my advice.
Hmm!
Quietly, quietly.
Careful... Careful...
Inspector, please lock the door.
Right.
Now it's completely sealed.
Not even a speck of dust will land on The Sleeping Lion before it arrives in Darwin.
- All right. Take it away!
- Yes, sir.
We have just left the city of Sydney. Nothing to report.
All right. Keep your guard up.
It's almost time.
Hey. There, there.
- We have trouble!
- What is it?
What happened? What's wrong?
A herd of sheep is blocking the road.
You idiot! Don't frighten me over something so trivial.
Shoo them away! Honestly.
Hot! Hot! Hot!
Hey, you're in our way. Move them, now!
Oh, excuse me. There are so many of them, you see.
Would you mind giving me a hand?
Sheesh. Oh, fine. Everybody, get out and lend him a hand!
What the heck?
Hey, speed it up! We're in a hurry.
I'm sorry, but would you back up so I can move the sheep?
Oh, all right.
All right, back up. Back up!
Move it. Move it.
Hey, look. They hit a snag down there.
Can't be helped, I guess. Let's patrol the area in the meantime.
Back up. Back up. Keep going straight.
- Jigen, are you ready?
- Ready when you are.
All right, open it.
Back up. Back up. Stop.
Why do we have to do this, anyway?
Tell me about it.
If Inspector Penguin saw this, we'd get a good scolding.
It's vanished! The armored truck's vanished!
We've got a big problem, Inspector! The armored truck has vanished!
What? Vanished? Wake up and speak clearly, you idiot!
Ouch! Ow-ow-ow...
It looks like we fell into their trap.
Now come out peacefully. You can't go anywhere.
Hey, he wants us to come out peacefully.
They have no idea of the workings of this armored truck. I pity the fools.
Hey, come on out! We won't kill you!
Wha, wha, wha? What is this smoke?
Damn! For some reason, I'm getting sleepy.
Let's take a look at the stupid faces of our would-be hijackers.
Sorry, buddy!
What is the meaning of this?
Well, sir, it just vanished while we were distracted by the sheep.
What do you mean, "just vanished"? It's not a balloon! Well?
Oh? That's right. The sky. It must have been carried off into the sky!
But according to the helicopter operators, nothing suspicious was flying overhead.
Strange. So, where did it vanish to?
- Strange, isn't it? - Strange, isn't it?
Idiots! This is no time for wondering.
Cordon off the city and leave no stone unturned!
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
- What's going on?
- They're losing their cool.
Let's start the operation.
Let's get it over with while the nuisances are still snoozing.
Huh?
- Ouch!
- Umph!
- Oof!
- What's this!
- Umph!
- Bastard!
- Idiot!
Bull crap!
- Crap! - Damn. This is stupid, Lupin. We're not building a house here.
- Dammit! - Damn. This is stupid, Lupin. We're not building a house here.
- Poo-poo! - Damn. This is stupid, Lupin. We're not building a house here.
Even dynamite won't dent it. We have no choice.
Wow.
I had no idea this would be so difficult.
Crap, it's hot. Damn.
Right now, Fujiko and Goemon are enjoying their vacation in Miami.
Don't tell me. Don't tell me.
They weren't up to the job, so they left us to have fun.
They are heartless guys.
Oh!
They had it coming.
At any rate, we'll try once more.
I can't wait. Let's have a look at the Sleeping Lion.
Uh-oh, trouble! Lupin!
What's wrong, Jigen?
I-in there. Look, look!
Come on, Lupin, open the door! I'll arrest you on the spot.
Pops! Why are you in a place like this?
I'm not a sucker like that penguin guy.
I knew you'd find a way to steal this armored truck, so I decided to lie in wait.
Now, open the door! Go ahead and open it, Lupin!
That's not cool, Pops.
Lupin, what should we do?
I wouldn't have stolen the truck if I'd known Pops was in it.
- Inspector!
- Huh?
Wanna give up on the gold lion and forget the whole thing?
Don't be stupid! How can we do that now?
Then what about Pops? And how do we open the door?
What's the matter, Lupin?
What is it...
I can't breathe.
What happened to him?
He's running out of oxygen. No wonder, since the truck's sealed so tightly.
Pops, open the door from the inside! You'll suffocate if you don't!
This armored truck won't open from the inside. Oh, I can't breathe, breathe...
He chose one heck of a place to sneak into.
Wait, Pops. I'll get it open somehow.
Jigen, keep an eye on the guys above.
Got it.
Lupin, this is bad. I think they've found us out.
What? Jigen, get on the armored truck.
All right, do it!
And here it is!
Arrest Lupin! Arrest him. Arrest him!
Don't shoot them, you idiots! Go after them. Go after them!
Oh, my. They're shooting like crazy outside.
By the way, how is Pops doing?
Well, he's pretty beat.
Can't breathe...
Hey, stop it! That won't do a thing. Surround them!
If we don't open it soon, Pops will become a sleeping Pops.
We can't open the door in this situation!
So we'll just return the vehicle.
And let go of our hard-earned treasure?
Crap. What should I do?
C'mon, he's a loveable guy.
I know that.
Lupin, his life is not replaceable.
Yeah.
All right, partner.
Inspector, they're headed for Ayers Rock.
Roger. Don't lose sight of them.
Go!
Inspector, it's over there. They're hiding behind that rock.
Lupin, you are completely surrounded!
You are trapped! Come out peacefully!
Very well, we are going in!
Go.
"Dear Old Penguin Man, I'm leaving, since Pops' life is irreplaceable...
"...but I'll be back to take the Sleeping Lion. Lupin the Third."
Bye!
Catch them!
Open the door quick, or Pops will die!
What?
Oh, Inspector Zenigata!
Pull yourself together. Are you all right?
Where's Lupin?
He couldn't break into the armored truck and ran away.
It's a shame we couldn't arrest them, but I'm glad the Sleeping Lion is safe.
Lupin, you committed such an act of kindness.
*Darwin art museum*
As you can see, it is safe.
We had some trouble on the way, but managed to pull through somehow.
Lupin!
Stop!
I won't let you have it!
Last man to laugh is the winner of the game.
What?
Damn. Shoot, shoot! Shoot him down! Shoot him down!
We did it. Go!
See ya, Old Penguin Man!
Damn! Use the police car. After them! Don't let them get away!
Boy, Penguin is tenacious, too.
Stop! Lupin, I won't let you get away!
I have repaid my debt, Lupin.
Next time we meet, I'll capture you for sure.
Pops has such a strong sense of obligation.
That's his good point.
You said it.
Lupin?
Huh?
You urgently need to buy a top quality pair of pants.
Huh? Oh, yeah.
We happily took a bunch of jewels from a casino's underground safe,
but that didn't last. Because then we get chased by a fearfully skilled killer.
But then we got in real trouble.
