Quotes 

• [Jigen finds Goemon on the ship's deck listening to enka] 

  Daisuke Jigen : I thought I'd find you here listening to elevator music! It's five years later, Goemon, and you're still listening to that crap!

  Goemon Ishikawa XIII : Yes, and five years later you still haven't quit smoking, have you, Jigen? Perhaps you need a little assistance. Here, let me help you...

  [slices Jigen's pipe in half] 

• [at dinner] 

  Arsène Lupin III , Daisuke Jigen , Goemon Ishikawa XIII , Fujiko Mine : Cheers!

  Arsène Lupin III : Sorry to be late, I had a minor matter to attend to.

  Daisuke Jigen : Tell me about it, I'm guessing you had to lift a Van Gogh or even two to pay for all of our tickets!

  Arsène Lupin III : Huh?

  Daisuke Jigen : Hey, whatever! Any guy who's willing to shell out this kind of cash to treat his old friends to a good time is aces with me!

  Arsène Lupin III : Hey, wait a minute, what do you mean? Whoa, back up! What do you mean, treat you?

  [Confused, Jigen, Goemon and Fujiko show Lupin the letters he sent them] 

  Arsène Lupin III : Huh? Well, I hate to break it to you guys, but I got one, too!

  [takes out a letter and gives it to Fujiko] 

  Fujiko Mine : [reading the letter]  "My darling Lupin, you've been in my dreams every night for five long years. Oh, darling, I can't bear being apart from you any longer, I simply have to see you immediately. Rendezvous with me on the Sirloin on October 3rd, and I promise I'll make both our dreams come true." Oh, please! This doesn't sound anything like me!

  Arsène Lupin III : Or smell like you!

  [sniffs the letter] 

  Fujiko Mine : What's that?

  Arsène Lupin III : Not even a trace of Chanel No 5. Trust me, I nearly sucked the entire thing up my nose.

  Daisuke Jigen : So this is just a steaming pile of...

  Goemon Ishikawa XIII : Very bad karma.

  Arsène Lupin III : Exactly, my friends! We've all fallen into someone's very ingenious trap!

  Daisuke Jigen : Not you, though! You figured it out for a trap, Lupin, and you waltzed right into it anyway! What the hell's up with that?

  Arsène Lupin III : I don't know about you, Jigen, but I like to know who my enemies are. The sooner he shows his hand, the sooner I can show him mine!

  Goemon Ishikawa XIII : We must remain as vigilant as the owl.

  Arsène Lupin III : Exactly.
