:32:00
According to the coroner's report...
:32:02
Chief Inspector Clouseau
was probably dead...
:32:06
before his car hit the telephone pole...
:32:10
and burst into flames.
:32:15
The president called me at 6:00
this morning.
:32:19
A dozen countries have offered the
services of their finest detectives...
:32:23
but the president
made it painfully clear...
:32:25
that this must be solved by Frenchmen,
and quickly...
:32:28
or we can all hand in
our resignations.
:32:30
I spoke with Dr. Laprone
at the hospital...
:32:32
and he assures me that Dreyfus
is completely cured.
:32:37
It's amazing.
:32:39
I've seen some lunatics
in my time.
:32:41
They were all pikers compared
with Dreyfus. He was like a wild animal!
:32:45
Didn't he actually bite you?
:32:47
Oh, yes. On the leg.
:32:50
I had to take rabies shots
just in case.
:32:53
The doctor swears
that his recovery is complete.
:32:56
He said that in the last 12 hours,
Dreyfus has literally become a new man.
:33:01
Thank God for that because we need him.
:33:03
If anyone knows about Clouseau
and who might have murdered him...
:33:07
that man is former
Chief Inspector Charles Dreyfus.
:33:11
Isn't it fantastic, Doctor?
:33:13
Reinstated at my former rank
with no loss of pay or social benefits.
:33:18
Yes. It could actually be called
a psychic rebirth.
:33:22
I am in your debt.
I shall be eternally grateful.
:33:25
I only helped.
I led the way.
:33:27
But in the final analysis,
it was your victory, Charles.
:33:31
Our victory, Paul.
:33:33
But only at the expense of another.
:33:36
Huh? Oh, Clouseau, you mean.
:33:38
It could be said that he died
so that you might live.
:33:43
I wish I could feel sorry.
:33:45
You feel no guilt?
:33:47
None.
:33:49
To be honest,
when I first heard he was dead...
:33:52
there were a few moments...
:33:54
when I was actually convinced
I was in a state of grace.
:33:59
Is that wrong?
