* WhatAnIdiot: An event in "50 Ways to Leave Your 50-Foot Lover" involves Zenigata managing to arrest Lupin and Jigen as they attempt to escape a British airport dressed as pilots. He handcuffs the two, then calls for the detective working with him to come over.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Zenigata would at least keep paying attention to the two, or anything else to make sure they can't escape.\\
'''Instead:''' He turns around gleefully to tell his detective to get over. Turning his back on the two in the process.\\
'''The Result:''' By the time the detective and the policeman arrive, Lupin and Jigen have somehow escaped, and placed their handcuffs on a baggage cart.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Episode 3's plot of Lupin looking for Hitler's secret legacy? Not too funny on paper. The WorthlessTreasureTwist of Hitler's stash being embarrassing school reports? Pretty funny. The episode ending of a badly drawn picture morphs into Hitler, who ''winks at the audience''? RefugeInAudacity at its best.
