:05:00
the power to control
the situation.
:05:02
So I have sent word...
:05:05
that I will give them
a demonstration, a sign...
:05:11
to show that I am still in control.
:05:14
That France is still
a viable territory.
:05:18
What I want from you,
are suggestions.
:05:23
I have an idea.
:05:25
All right.
:05:27
Would you ask your secretary
to bring in the morning paper?
:05:33
- Would you bring in the morning paper?
- Right away, sir.
:05:41
Who is the most important man
in France today?
:05:44
Present company excluded, of course.
:05:46
Thank you.
:05:48
- The president, I suppose.
- For our purpose.
:05:51
A man New York knows even better
than the president of France.
:05:55
A man with which our entire
world organization is familiar...
:05:59
and would like nothing better
than to see him out of the way.
:06:02
Who?
:06:08
Who has given us nothing but trouble
for the past ten years?
:06:12
Who has survived
16 assassination attempts?
:06:16
Including two by his own boss.
:06:25
Clouseau.
:06:26
You want to impress New York,
eliminate Clouseau.
:06:31
Eliminate Clouseau and we'll have
every cop in France down on our necks.
:06:34
Not if we do it smart.
:06:36
There is a rumor
that he is really a complete imbecile.
:06:40
I've heard that.
:06:41
Yet he continues to survive.
:06:44
I have it on good authority
that he is anything but an imbecile.
:06:48
That he only plays at the fool.
:06:52
In any case, it is too dangerous.
