Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationExpansion: Like most early ''Lupin'' episodes, it takes its basic premise (here: Lupin masquerades as a prix driver and swaps places with Jigen mid-race, all while Zenigata competes as another racer) from a manga chapter while adding things (here: the entire plot with Scorpian and Fujiko) to fill 22 minutes.


Added DiffLines:

* PopCulturePunEpisodeTitle: The title is a ShoutOut to the 1966 French film ''Film/IsParisBurning'' - not as random as it seems, as the film's star Creator/JeanPaulBelmondo was one of the key inspirations for Lupin's design.

i felt like the summary was kind of bare


The Hida Speedway has been completed and Lupin is entered as one of the competitors, representing Japan. His goal is to take top prize at the first race. The race is actually a trap designed by the Scorpion Gang who are intent on killing Lupin and eliminating all criminal competition.

Lupin starts the race in the lead, closely followed by Zenigata. After avoiding two traps set for him, he switches places with Jigen who has an exact replica of Lupin's car, and a uniform to match. Lupin then visits the hotel where Scorpion is hiding and watching. Disguised as a plumber, he is able to flood the basement of the hotel. He uses an electrical cable to shock everyone other than himself and Fujiko, due to the flood. Rescuing Fujiko, Lupin heads back to his car.
