Pink Panther 2 Summary

Pink Panther 2 starts out with stolen artifacts in Rome, London, and Tokyo. They started out with a global and moving from England, Italy, and Japan to France. I enjoyed how they started the movie with a globe. It's a nice visual. All three artifacts were stolen by Les Tornado. Then they move to France where Dryfess talks to other Inspectors. They want to solve the case worldwide with an International Dream Team. France has asked Jacques. Monsieur Jacques Cousteau has been assigned to Parking duty. Dryfess assigned him to that job after his win of the Medal of Honor. He was reassigned to the dream team to solve the case of the missing artifacts around the world and find Le Tornado. On his parking duty he has cross referenced the tickets by writing down the date of the ticket given, license plate number and when was it given. This cross referencing was important in the case. As Clouseau was about to leave France, the Pink Panther Diamond was stolen. Now the dream team is starting in France. The Pink Panther diamond that was stolen was a fake. Clouseau switched the replicated given to him in a case with the real diamond. Clouseau knew it would be stolen, so he switched the real and replicated one before anyone would know.

Afterwards, they moved to Rome, Italy. They will interview the person that is a suspected suspect. Clouseau did not follow the crew instead he went digging around for information. He said, “The Tornado is in there. I can sense him."

The scene that followed showed the Tornado talking inside the mansion. Clouseau was correct. The funny part was when the Pope's ring was stolen and he dressed up as the Pope to act out what the pope did that night.

The crime of finding El Tornado was shortly solved when they found the key. El Tornado committed suicide and left all the stolen artifacts except the Pink Panther diamond which was burned. Clouseau consulted a geologist about how it could have burned and he said that El Tornado had to know it was a replica.

At the awards ceremony, Clouseau was the only person to realize that El tornado did not steal the pink Panther diamond. It was the girl who solved the case with them. (Not Nicole)
She destroyed the replica, but the real diamond stayed with Clouseau and no one knew until the ceremony.

He used the cross reference book to figure out that El Tornado did not steal the diamond because he went back to the day before the Pink Panther was stolen. He gave that car a ticket.
The rest of the Dream team all confessed that Clouseau's mind is sharper than them all.
The case was completely finished with Jacques Clouseau. He always finishes the case at the last minute.
To conclude the movie, Nicole and Jacques got married and Daryfess accidentally shot the security camera. The secret security came with big guns. The past word was hamburger, but it was changed. Cloyseau's gadget ran out of battery, so Clouseau and Nicole secretly sneaked out. At the end the movie was finished with the animated Pink Panther.

Jacques Clouseau succeeds in finding the Pink Panther again. Case Closed
