Inspector Clouseau
for Inspector Clouseau in A Better Pink Panther Reboot
Suggested by captainwhaddock

The year is 1964, the Maharaja of Lugash is having a national state visit to Paris, in order to negotiate the country's independence from France. As a gift of friendship, the Maharaja gives the French Government Lugash’s most prized treasure, «The Pink Panther Diamond». But at the peace conference, the Pink Panther is stolen, and Commissioner Dreyfus is told by the Maharaja to put his best detective on the case. However, Sargeant Francois accidentally hires the police force's worst Detective, "Inspector Jacques Clouseau". To make sure Clouseau doesn’t mess things up, Dreyfus hires a Chinese martial arts expert called Cato Fong to train Clouseau for his mission. Dreyfus tells Clouseau to investigate former jewel thief "Sir Charles Lytton" but after investigating him, Clouseau believe that he can’t have stolen the Pink Panther and so works with his to find out who is the real culprit. Clouseau suspects that the culprit must be a member of the Lugash Royel Family and so investigates the Maharaja’s Daughter. However, she and Clouseau end up falling in love, which not only gets him in trouble with the Maharaja but also drives Dreyfus to try to kill Clouseau for his incompetence. (This is my idea for a Pink Panther Reboot that's better than the 2006 Steve Martine movie)
