:18:03
- Idiot!
- How could I know he was the bank manager?
:18:06
- Or that the bank was being robbed (!)
- Correct.
:18:09
What is correct?
:18:11
I did not know the bank was being robbed
:18:14
because I was engaged in my sworn duty
as a police officer.
:18:18
You didn't even arrest the old beggar.
:18:21
There was some question as to whether
he or his meenkey was breaking the law.
:18:25
- Meenkey?
- What?
:18:27
- You said meenkey!
- Correct. Chimpanzee meenkey.
:18:30
So I let them both off with a warning.
:18:33
The beggar was the lookout man
for the gang.
:18:36
Impossible. He was blind.
How can a blind man be a lookout?
:18:41
- How can an idiot be a policeman?
- Simple. All he has to do is to enlist...
:18:46
Shut up!
:18:49
- How do you know he was blind?
- Because he told me so.
:18:52
- He told you so. You believed him?
- I had no reason to doubt him.
:18:58
Do you believe me if I tell you that I'm not
going to get you suspended for six months?
:19:03
If you say so, sir, yes.
:19:05
I'm a bigger liar than the beggar.
:19:07
You are suspended for six months,
without pay.
:19:10
- Six months?
- Effective immediately. Anything to say?
:19:14
- Could you lend me 50 francs?
- Will you get out of my sight!
:19:26
My blood pressure... Idiot.
:19:31
One day, Francois, I'll be rid of him forever.
That'll be the day!
:19:35
- Something on your mind?
- An order from the Commissioner.
:19:40
- Oh, yes?
- It concerns Clouseau.
:19:42
Go on.
:19:44
He's to be reinstated as an inspector.
:19:47
What? You can't be serious.
:19:50
And he is to report immediately
to Colonel Sharki in Lugash.
:19:56
I see...
