You've reached Zenigata's mouth. His brain is still asleep.

A fun little caper episode with a very clever premise: What if Zenigata ended up being on the run from Lupin?

The episode centers around a hunt for a microfilm that Nasa created to cheaply produce diamonds. A couple of crooks get to it first and hide it in Zenigata's mouth, and unfortunately the Inspector's worldwide pursuit of Lupin has taken a slight toll on his mental health.

My only issue with the episode is that Zenigata seems slightly more useless with everything than usual. I did like the whole sequence of him talking in his sleep about Lupin, something that becomes a slight running joke through the franchise, and the part at the end of the English dub where Lupin teases him about it.

Other than that, it's a solid episode that I appreciate more and more as time passes.
