- Inspector Kouichi Zenigata: [Lupin in disguise] He is a man who makes the impossible possible. He is a genius thief, a man among men. Good-looking, intelligent and very healthy.
- Inspector Penguin: Hush up! Are you, a police officer, taking sides with a thief?
- Inspector Kouichi Zenigata: [Lupin in disguise] I was just telling you the truth.
- Inspector Kouichi Zenigata: [Lupin in disguise] Lupin is a kind of genius. He's a man who accomplishes the impossible. He's cunning, handsome, diabolically charming, and one of the most...!
- Inspector Penguin: Inspector! Just listen to yourself, for God's sake. An outside observer might conclude that you were in love with the man!
- Inspector Kouichi Zenigata: [Lupin in disguise] I admit to sort of a perverse admiration...
- Daisuke Jigen: [watching Zenigata suffocate] I can't watch this. If we don't open this damn door pretty soon, he's gonna bite it.
- Arsène Lupin III: If I knew how to do that, I would have.
- Daisuke Jigen: We could return the thing.
- Daisuke Jigen: After all this work? Damn it to hell. This whole thing's screwed up.
- Arsène Lupin III: He's a decent guy.
- Arsène Lupin III: You think I don't know that?
- Daisuke Jigen: You know what, man, I think he would do the same thing for you.
- Arsène Lupin III: Yeah... It's true, isn't it?
- [Penguin finds Zenigata lying, unconscious, over the crate where the statue is]
- Inspector Penguin: Inspector! My God, are you...?
- [He turns Zenigata over and gently slaps his face]
- Inspector Penguin: Inspector! Inspector, wake up! Inspector! Wake up!
- [Zenigata starts to stir and open his eyes]
- Inspector Kouichi Zenigata: Where's... Lu... pin?
- Inspector Penguin: He gave up and ran away when he realized he couldn't break into this impenetrable truck! The Lion is safe, Inspector! You and I won! Ha!
- Inspector Kouichi Zenigata: [realizing Lupin gave up breaking into the safe to save him] He did this for me...? Can't believe it.
- Daisuke Jigen: Friggin' birds can't get close to that thing, and I don't think I can pull off the backless look, either. I mean, not that it doesn't look absolutely stunning on you or anything, but it does take a certain androgynous quality, you know?
- Arsène Lupin III: I swear, I'll beat you with your own hat.
- [Jigen laughs]
