And at Avellaneda's mansion, when I sensed the presence of the Tornado, he was there, all...

Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
You are under arrest! Sonia:
Let me go, or I will destroy it. [Sonia takes what she believes to be the Pink Panther from her purse, and draws a gun] Dreyfus:
Let her go. Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
Let her do it. Dreyfus:
[shocked]
Are you insane? Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
[Sonia tosses what appears to be the Pink Panther into the air, shooting it into millions of fragments; she attempts to run into a hallway, only for Ponton to hit her face with a metal serving tray]
Good work, Ponton. Ponton:
Thank you. Dreyfus:
You moron! You twerp! You sad excuse for a human being! You have just destroyed the sacred symbol of France! Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
Ponton, did you bring what I asked for? Boys... [Louis and Antoine bring a small jewelry case] Louis:
Here it is, Uncle Jacques. Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
Yes, yes. Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
I knew the Tornado would eventually come after the Pink Panther, so I went to the museé with a simple plan in mind. I had convinced my old friend, Robert the night guard, to turn off the security system for the few moments necessary to save the most beautiful object in France. I then switched the Pink Panther with the replica I had at home. [Clouseau takes the real Pink Panther from the case] Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
This is the real Pink Panther. It was the fake that was stolen. Dreyfus:
[to himself]
Nightmare, nightmare. Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
And when the Tornado, an expert on the quality of gems, wrote in his supposed suicide note of its great beauty, I knew he could never have been the thief; he would have recognized it as a fake. Vicenzo:
How did you figure out it was Sonia? Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
It was because I spent the last 17 months on parking duty. Dreyfus:
What? Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
Today I was staring at Miss Solandres' license plate. I recognized it because of my... unique system of cross-referencing. I became aware that I had given a parking ticket to the same car, two days before Miss Solandres claimed she arrived in Paris... one day before the Pink Panther was stolen. [the guests applaud Clouseau, who has just thwarted Sonia Solandres] Dreyfus:
You followed my instructions very well, Clouseau. It was I, of course, who put Clouseau onto the parking ticket assignment. Isn't that so, Inspector? Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
No. [Clouseau winks at Chief Inspector Dreyfus, who instructed him to deny any knowledge of the assignment] Insp. Jacques Clouseau:
And at Avellaneda's mansion, when I sensed the presence of the Tornado, he was there, all right. But it was not a he, it was a she! [the guests and the Dream Team applaud Clouseau's success]
