Ownership Dispute Over The Pink Panther Diamond
Simone Clouseau
If I'm not being too nosy your highness, I read somewhere there was some dispute over the ownership of the Pink Panther.
Princess Dala
It belongs to me. It was a gift from my late father. I shall never surrender it.
Sir Charles Lytton
Why should you?
Princess Dala
When the present government seized power, they claimed the diamond was the property of the people. There's even some talk of the international court deciding the issue.
Sir Charles Lytton
I'll tell you what, why don't I steal the diamond, leave that old glove or whatever it is behind, and you and I can split the insurance.
Princess Dala
All right.
George Lytton
I feel like dancing. Your Highness?
[to Princess Dala]
Princess Dala
I'd love to.

Perceiving Flaws in Precious Gems
Gem dealer 1
As in every stone of this size, there is a flaw.
Sultan
A flaw?
Gem dealer 2
The slightest flaw, your excellency.
Gem dealer 1
If you look deep into the stone, you will perceive the tiniest discoloration. It resembles an animal.
Sultan
An animal?
Gem dealer 1
A little panther.
Sultan
Yes! A pink panther. Come here, Dala. A gift to your father from his grateful people. Some day it will be yours. The most fabulous diamond in all the world. Come closer.

A Playful Exchange of Threats and Affection
Princess Dala
If I were my father, I'd have you tortured.
[after Sir Charles Lytton kisses her]
Sir Charles Lytton
No. If you were your father, I doubt very much if I would have kissed you.

Betting on the Phantom's Presence
Inspector Jacques Clouseau
I am willing to bet you ten thousand francs, that the phantom is in Cortina at this very moment. Even, perhaps, in this very room.
Simone Clouseau
How exciting. What do you think, Mr. Tucker?
Tucker
Oh, I agree with the inspector. You see, Ten of his last fifteen victims have been guests at Angela Dunning's parties.
Sir Charles Lytton
What are we all talking about?
Simone Clouseau
The notorious Phantom.
Princess Dala
I'm afraid I never heard of him.
Sir Charles Lytton
From the little I've read about him, he seems to be quite a fellow.
Inspector Jacques Clouseau
Believe me. There are few thieves who are as clever as the Phantom. Each theft is completely different and unique, classic in its conception.
George Lytton
I thought you were working on the theory that he does repeat himself.
Inspector Jacques Clouseau
Well, only as far as Angela Dunning's parties are concerned. However, there is one other duplication, but that is his ah... trademark, his calling card, so to speak. He always leaves a white monogrammed glove.
Princess Dala
Sounds terribly theatrical.

Suspicion Surrounds the Owner of a Diamond
Tucker
Your Highness, if I were the Phantom, I'd have chosen my victim already.
Princess Dala
Really? And who would that be?
Tucker
Well, who owns the most fabulous diamond in the world?
Princess Dala
I suppose I do.
Inspector Jacques Clouseau
Exactly. The Pink Panther. Such a prize he could never resist. He would be bound to try for it.
Princess Dala
I'm afraid he'd be disappointed. The Pink Panther is in my safe, at...
Inspector Jacques Clouseau
Your Highness, please. Don't say it, not here.
