* ArtisticLicenseEconomics: There is no way any insurance company would honor a claim against Lupin's actions given that Maggie had publicly invited Lupin to take a shot at robbing her store. Even with the jewels being recoverable, the damage to the building caused by the means that Lupin took to steal them would have cost a fortune to repair.

* SkyHeist: Lupin is coerced into stealing from a Tiffany & Company's jewelry store in New York City. With Zenigata's preparations, the gang cannot set foot in the building without setting off the alarms. So instead they sit on the roof of a nearby building and use [[EnergyWeapon laser fishing rods]] to collect the jewelry instead.

A distinguished woman standing behind them encourages their ideas, and to their ever growing confusion unlocks the building and lets them in to take a closer look. She turns out to be Margritte "Maggie" Tiffany, the current owner of the store and local New York newscaster. After bragging about how Tiffany's has never been broken into succesfully, successfully, she issues a challenge: she wants Lupin's gang to attempt to break in on Christmas Eve for her news show and publicity for her store.
Maggie's boss, Inspector Zenigata, and Lupin's gang are all a bit flustered by the challenge. In the end, however, the former two can do nothing legally, as Maggie is the store owner and is willing to put her property at risk. Zenigata decides to participate to give him a shot at Lupin. Lupin, however, refuses the offer, even after Maggie attempts to bribe him with a posh hotel suite, $100,000 in spending money, and a blank check that Lupin can fill in with whatever he wants if he succeeds; all he wants is a quiet, fun holiday without risk of jail time. He and Jigen promptly leave for a fishing trip in Panama.
In Panama, Lupin comes extremely close to catching a massive swordfish, only for his line to break. The captain of the fishing boat, Gebopee, turns out to be a failed scientist who demonstrates his own invention, an electric laser rope, which he attempts to use on the swordfish himself before it overheats and explodes. Later, as they relax in a bar, Lupin receives a telegram from Fujiko. After a catty putdown from Maggie and disappointed herself in Lupin's refusal to participate, Fujiko decided to class herself up with a shopping spree, including a large diamond at Tiffany's, a fur coat, a new Rolls-Royce, and many other things she really couldn't afford. She (purposefully) wrote checks for all of them, they bounced, and now the bank is howling for their money to the tune of a million dollars! However, she has a solution: Maggie has given her another blank check. All she needs is Lupin's help to finish the job at Tiffany's!
The theft is on, after all. Zenigata gleefully shows off the store's security features to Lupin: an extensive laser network and super-sensitive floor that will both trigger alarms at the slightest sign. Lupin, however, begins to piece together a plan. That evening, he starts with a quick trip into the subway system before he and the gang assemble on the roof of one of the high-rises next door to Tiffany's. Goemon is dropped down on a line to make a series of cuts along the sides of the building. Just as he finishes, a subway train rolls underneath the store and catches a magnet attached to a steel line run through a series of pullies to the store's front. The force of the train combined with Goemon's careful slashes pulls the store itself away from the rest of the building, coincidentally trapping Zenigata's car and keeping him from interfering. With the power gone and the lasers and alarms disabled, it is a simple matter for the rest of the gang to use Gebopee's laser rope to open the cases and yank the gems right from the jewelry boxes. Tiffany's is completely cleaned out in a matter of minutes.
