Tony Oliver: Arsène Lupin III

Quotes 

• Arsène Lupin III : Okay, let me see if I got this: A lowlife named Gavott barged in in broad daylight and made off with the diamond-making robot so he can impress his sort-of girlfriend. Yeah, well, I can relate.

• [Gavott's car zooms past Lupin's group causing them to crash] 

  Arsène Lupin III : Hey, what the hell's the matter with you, ya dumb bastard? There happens to be other friggin' people in the world!

• Arsène Lupin III : [about the dismantled robot]  Well, why don't we get to work on old Humpty Dumpty.

  Fujiko Mine : That doesn't sound good. All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put Humpty together again.

  Arsène Lupin III : Don't worry. I've done this twice before.

  Goemon Ishikawa XIII : You've assembled a robot?

  Arsène Lupin III : Nah. A ship and a tank.

  Fujiko Mine : A ship and a tank?

  Goemon Ishikawa XIII : That's really quite impressive.

  Arsène Lupin III : Yeah, use to spend all my allowance on those hobby kits of model ships and tanks.

  Goemon Ishikawa XIII : Huh?

  Fujiko Mine : You mean you've been talking about MODEL airplanes and toys?

  Arsène Lupin III : [after completing the robot]  Sure. Keeps a young man's hands out of trouble.

• Arsène Lupin III : [about Baby]  Man, poor Gavott. She's really got him wrapped around her little finger, doesn't she?

  Daisuke Jigen : I was sweating bullets when she started throwing these parts all over the place. If only she knew what she was trashin', huh?

  Goemon Ishikawa XIII : She couldn't see through her anger and greed that she was holding in her hands the very object of her desire.

• [Lupin and Fujiko discuss Gavott and Baby while riding a roller coaster] 

  Arsène Lupin III : Guy's a dangerous gangster, you know, and yet he says, "Hey, let's meet on a roller coaster!"

  Fujiko Mine : The story I heard is they met here. She was slinging hot dogs at a concession stand.

• Arsène Lupin III : [drowsily answering the phone]  The number you've dialed is no longer in service. Check your telephone directory or the information operator for the correct number and go to hell.

  [He hangs up, but the phone rings again and falls off the dresser. Lupin slithers out of his bed] 

  Arsène Lupin III : You've reached Lupin's mouth. His brain is still asleep. Oh, then you prefer to speak to somebody else? OK. JIGEN! PHONE! IT'S FOR YOU!

• Arsène Lupin III : I mean, even if a thing like this worked, what would anyone use it for? You wouldn't happen to have a giant paperclip on you, would you?

  [He tests it] 

  Arsène Lupin III : Not much of a super electro-magnet.
