- Palais Reporter: What about the diamond? What about the Pink Panther?
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Yes, Uh, thank you, Inspector Clouseau for carrying out my orders. Hand over the diamond, Yuri.
- Yuri: What do I care about your stinking diamond?
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: He does not have the diamond.
- Chief Inspector Dreyfus: [skeptically] The murderer does not have the diamond?
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: No.
- Chief Inspector Dreyfus: [mockingly] Well, then, where is it, Inspector Clouseau?
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: It is there! In her purse!
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Let me see.
- [He searches Xania's purse but finds nothing]
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Sorry, Clouseau, no diamond.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: [He takes out a Swiss Army knife, and opens the miniature scissors] The purse, please.
- [He uses the mini-scissors to cut into the purse's inner lining]
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Could you hold that, please?
- [He hands the Swiss Army knife to Dreyfus, and takes the Pink Panther ring out of Xania's purse]
- Xania: After Gluant came to me, he said he decided to stop cheating on me. Then he asked me to marry him... and put the ring in my hands. After he was killed, I thought if I came forward with the ring, everyone would think I did it.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: If Gluant gave you the ring before he died, then according to Civil Statute 812-914B, you are the rightful owner. You may keep the Pink Panther.
- Ponton: But Inspector, how did you know she had it?
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: It was simple, Ponton. I was looking at a photo of myself at the checkpoint. Something caught my eye: Xania's purse passing through the X-ray machine. I enlarged the photo... and in it... the Pink Panther. The case is closed!
- [the crowd cheers and applauds]
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Why?
- Xania: Why what?
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Why were you being so elusive today?
- Xania: I was afraid of Larocque. He might be following me.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Larocque? The casino owner?
- Xania: He sent out word threatening to kill anyone in possession of the Pink Panther. He believes it belongs to him.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: But why would he follow you?
- Xania: I was in New York to see a diamond cutter. He might draw the wrong conclusion.
- Xania: I'm Xania.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: You do not know zis, but I am intimately familiar with your work.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: You, don't leave town!
- Roland Saint-Germain: But, I'm flying to Montserrat to record Rene Duchanel.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: You will not leave town. I may want to ask you a few more questions.
- Roland Saint-Germain: But I don't know anything.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: About life, about luv. Yes, you little wet puppy. But about the crime you may know a lot!
- Xania: Inspector, do I have to stay in town? Because next week I have something - vague to do in New York.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Well, if you absolutely have to do something vague, feel free to go where you wish.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: You know, a man sitting here in your private suite, so close to you, might draw the wrong conclusion too.
- Xania: Or the right one. I've heard things about you, inspector.
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: What zort of things?
- Xania: That you really know how to treat a woman.
- [gives a seductive look]
- Inspector Jacques Clouseau: Oh, yes. Yes. Let the games begin.
