Warning: Spoilers
The plot of this episode didn't make a whole lot of sense. A rich guy trying to defraud his insurance has kids pretend they're Lupin's children? Why, we'll never know.

That said, the episode is very funny. It plays with the idea that Lupin's rampant sex life may have consequences. I love the dialogue between the three guys, and the digs Jigen and Goemon take at Lupin's inability to keep his pants on.

Once more Zenigata complains that he hasn't been able to have a wife or children because of his pursuit of Lupin, although Lupin reminded him twelve episodes ago that the Inspector doesn't get to pin the lack of girlfriends on him (Hint: He has a crush on Lupin and is too afraid to say it, but is also panicking about his sperm count).

I also love the bad luck Fujiko has on her heist. By the time she gets out of the building and finds herself surrounded by police, she's had enough.

The comedic performance from Yasuo Yamada makes me come back to this episode again and again.
