Honolulu Airport, Hawaii
Inspector Zenigata, may I help you?
Professor Hunter, I'd like to discuss...
the case regarding Lupin the Third.
Enter through there.
Something like this shouldn't even surprise you.
Proceed to the right.
Do as I say, or you'll be in here for the rest of your life.
This is just inside an airplane. What a silly joke.
Welcome, Inspector Zenigata.
By changing the layout of the corridors...
this could turn into a maze with no exit.
A maze without an exit?!
This computer configures the combinations.
Even for Lupin it's absolutely impossible to get through.
Well, I received a tip that Lupin is here on vacation.
Humph! Are you saying Lupin is after my collection?
Since I'm here, I'll protect them by all means!
You don't have to worry about that.
If he's a genius thief, I'm a genius in criminal psychology.
Do you think I'd make a safe that Lupin could break into?
Is this the safe?
Right. Only one person in the world...
can open this safe. That's ME!
That's...
Heiji Zenigata
Don't touch it!
This safe is controlled by a computer.
If even a particle of dust is removed...
the alarm will go off and 100,000 volts will shock you.
100,000 volts?
Now the burglar alarm is off.
If Lupin fails to break in...
he proves he's nothing more than a petty thief.
One-cent coin of Inspector Zenigata the First.
Heiji Zenigata
He's using Inspector Zenigata's memento as bait.
I can't forgive him!
"Computer or Lupin" (Computer Ka Lupin Ka)
A car's coming this way.
So much for siesta time.
Pretty good!
Aye-yi-yi! It's Pops!
That's strange. I thought he was terrified of speeding.
That's not the only strange thing.
Take a close look at his face.
I can't let you go even one step beyond this point.
Move over. I have no time for a small fish like you.
Unforgivable! Be prepared!
Take this!
This can't be!
It's just impossible!
Get in!
This is a dream. This has to be a dream.
That hurts, you bastard!
Lupin!
You won't come out? Then I'll come to you.
Such a toy can't get me.
Lupin, come out!
Pops is hot today.
Look at you guys. Totally helpless against Pops?
How pathetic.
- Behind you! - Behind you!
P-Pops! Oops! Shame on me, too.
Once I get serious, this is a piece of cake.
So, please, Lupin.
Are you serious? You want to become a thief?
I found a throwing coin of Inspector Heiji Zenigata...
whom I most respect, among Professor Hunter's collections.
If I remember correctly, it's a penny.
It may be worth only a penny to others...
but it's like a family treasure to the Zenigata family.
So you want to get the coin back.
You are the only one who can break into that safe.
Please! This is my once-in-a-lifetime request.
Please break into the safe. I'm begging you!
He's a well-made cyborg!
He looks just like that dumb Inspector Zenigata.
Did you just say I'm dumb?
Amazing. He gets mad just like him.
Of course he's just like him. It's Pops himself.
Enough with the bad jokes already!
Inspector Zenigata is supposed to be our enemy.
Yesterday's enemy is today's friend.
He says he is one of us starting today.
What?
I guess you don't need these.
Safe
It's impressive.
He built such an elaborate safe.
Lupin, many high-profile thieves took on this challenge...
but no one has succeeded.
He studies the challenger's strengths and weaknesses...
and saves all the information in the computer.
He must have input everything about you into the computer.
In other words, the computer is my alter ego.
It will be I who breaks into the safe, as well as protects it.
My research shows...
that the collection inside it is not worth much.
But it's full of danger to break in.
It's not worth it. I'm out.
Lupin, you shouldn't mess with this safe.
I'm out, too.
I'm with them.
This time the opponent is just too tough.
It's worth trying, just because it's difficult to break in.
Even if the others are out, I'll lend a hand.
Lupin, if you are a man, do it! OK?
The end of money is the end of love, huh?
They have no heart.
After all, I'm a loner.
But I'm not gonna lose.
It's useless to disguise ourselves.
What do you mean, Lupin?
We can disguise our faces.
But we can't disguise our weight, height, or the way we walk.
Which means?
The entire floor is an ID device.
Then as long as we walk on the floor, he'll know who we are?
What are we gonna do?
Lupin the Third has arrived.
Here he comes. Lupin the Third.
He has no clue that this is his last day.
Didn't we come this way earlier?
According to my count, this is the fifth time.
The fifth time?
The computer in charge of this maze is my alter ego.
So if I try to find an exit...
it immediately changes the layout so that I can't get out.
Lupin, do you think this floor is all right?
Don't worry about it.
From now on, YOU will decide which way to go.
Wh-wh-what? Me?
Since nothing about you is saved in the computer...
even the computer can't predict our moves.
What an elaborate maze he's made!
The behavior of Lupin the Third is abnormal.
This is not the thinking pattern of a normal human being.
Even Lupin won't be able to beat the computer, though.
Looks like we're finally out of the maze.
Aren't you glad you let me join you?
Hot!
We did it! We did it! We did it!
What on earth is this?
It's an automatic repair device.
Hey, I'm Hunter.
Let's try this and...
I'm telling you to open it.
Lupin, we're close. Give it your best shot.
My fate depends on whether you can crack the safe or not.
I guess the Professor's fingerprints open the safe.
I hate to admit this, but he is the only one who can open it.
Lupin, don't give up!
No, no. Just this once I concede.
How can you?!
The honor and tradition of the Zenigata Family...
will be tarnished for the sake of a penny?
I don't know how I can apologize to my ancestors.
I'm so sad!
Ever since you came to us and wanted to be one of us...
I knew something wasn't quite right.
What on earth happened?
Heiji Zenigata
It's the most embarrassing thing in the history of the Zenigata family.
Even worse, I'm a policeman on active duty.
So you wanted me to crack the safe and return it quietly?
Under the circumstances, I'll be with you until the bitter end.
As an inspector, I'll get fired for this...
and you will wash your hands of robbery because you can't open it.
You and I will retire hand in hand. I think this is some sort of fate.
It's too early to give up.
Huh?
This penny is worth thousands of dollars.
Just wait and see.
They must have realized that this safe is invincible and fled.
Huh?
You don't know the result of chess or robbery until the game's over.
I wonder if that's the case.
All the data of your brain is saved in the computer.
And I've never lost in chess against the computer.
Therefore, my brain is most superior.
Professor, we are about to land in front of the state prison.
Do you understand now where the loser is going?
Professor, humans have something that computers don't have.
It's called emotions.
Heiji Zenigata
This is from my collection for sure.
Where did I miscalculate?
It's not the computer's fault.
You made the mistake, Professor.
Me? That's impossible.
I didn't open the safe. You did.
You lost your cool once you saw the coin.
Not realizing that I was behind you, you opened the safe.
I haven't lost yet. Only I can fly this airplane.
I'm the only genius! You should go on to prison!
Professor, you don't get it, do you?
It's my pals who flew this airplane.
In this battle of wits, you've lost.
Hey, Lupin!
Fujiko dear came to rescue me. I'm so happy.
Don't get the wrong idea.
I found a buyer offering $100,000 for these.
Lupin!
Wait! Wait, Lupin!
Pops, don't worry. You'll get your share.
Don't be silly, Lupin!
You're under arrest for robbery! You're caught red-handed!
P-Pops!
There!
What is this? I caught you guys so smoothly yesterday!
Why can't I today?
Don't you see?
You are totally different from yesterday, Pops.
Huh? I'm a different person?
That's right. Yesterday you were desperate to return the coin.
If you want to get us, be serious enough to become a thief.
Wait, Lupin!
See ya, Pops!
Damn! If it would help me catch Lupin...
I'll turn into a demon or Satan!
Wait, Lupin!
The runaway journey of Jigen and Monica begins.
They run away across the endless snow field in love and with hope.
Hey, you are the man, Jigen! But watch out for women.
Enjoy the next show and find out why this happened.
