- But there's a show on!

We'll keep her till she tells us

where she hid the diamonds.

Don't take her away!

I confess, I got-a the diamonds.

- Where are they?

- Here, but I no give them to you.

Don't let them escape!

Harpo, this way!

Help me hold the door.

We gotta keep 'em chasing us.

If they find out we no got the diamonds,

they stop-a the show, kill Maggie!

Now I gotta get back. Hurry, you go!

That way, Hannibal!

Aha, there he is!

Hurry up, hurry up!

Grab him!

- He was right here.

- Where did he go?

What are you doing, you idiots? Grab him!

Oh!

There he is!

That's where I saw him.

You idiots!

Head him off at the other roof.

Beautiful, beautiful! Go take your bow!

I gotta no time. I gotta give 'em

the diamonds, the real ones!

- Who's got diamonds?

- Me! Look!

I save-a Harpo, I save-a the show!

I'm-a the hero, nobody else!

Hey! Hey! I got 'em!

Hey! Hey! Leave Harpo alone!

Here's the real diamonds. Look! Look!

I got him.

Ooh! Oh!

The odds were stacked against me,

but here I was, back on the traiI.

At the risk of death, I fearlessly

scrutinised every possible hiding place.

Ah, Madame Egelichi.

Don't you remember me?

Yes, I do.

- No, I mean before that.

- Grunion, I am warning you.

This time I am going to get the diamonds,

and nobody's going to stop me.

No, I'm not gonna follow you and get shot.

If I was half-shot, I'd follow you.

I'll take those.

- Give me those diamonds, you fool.

- You want-a the diamonds? Here.

Now, what are you going to give me?

- That's not what I want.

- Where are the real ones?

Those are the real ones.

Harpo's got the fakes.

He's up there!

There he is again!

- Where is he?

- He was standing right there.

- That's where I saw him.

- You idiots.

There he is. After him!

Where is he?

- Right there.

- Alphonse!

Where is he?

There he is!

I'll get him.

No!

Good work, my man,

I was just about to enter the battle.

From now on I'll take care of you.

You've got the axe, of course?

I'm in complete command of the situation.

I didn't see a thing,

the window shades were down.

Search him.

Oh, no, I'm not going to get into that.

If this were a French picture I could do it.

- I'll search him myself.

- No.

The diamonds kept us apart too long.

I'll tackle him single-handed.

I'd kill anyone

who's got those diamonds.

Grunion, darling.

Careful, you're singeing my coat.

I don't care about the diamonds.

All I really want is you.

So you finally fell for me, eh?

Yes. This is the sweetest moment of my life.

Come, my darling.

Goodbye, old man. It was nice knowing you.

- You're tickling my change pocket!

- Let's get away together, just you and I.

What fun we'll have.

We'll stop at Monte Carlo, Rio de Janeiro.

First we'll stop at the unemployment

office and get my cheque.

And that's how it ended,

with the diamonds in the pocket

of a happy-go-lucky clown

who disappeared with them,

never realising their true value.

That was six cases ago. I'm now on

the trail of the Calcutta Cut-throats.

I have tracked them down

to a good-humour plant in Istanbul.

Answer that, my man.

I'm busy.

Gin, huh?

A fine assistant.

There goes-a my coat.

Yes?

Yes, dear. Yes, I'll be home, dear.

No, I won't be late, dear.

Six o'clock on the dot.

Yes, dear. Goodbye, dear.

My wife.

Formerly Madame Egelichi.

# Love happy, I'm love happy

# It's wonderful

to know the meaning of happy

# And I know why

# All my dreams come true

# Cos you're love happy too #
