'''"The Great Thief Nezumi-Koozoo Makes His Appearance"'''<ref>怪盗ねずみ小僧現わる (Kaitou Nezumi Kozou Arawaru)</ref>, with the English title '''"Rats To You"'''. Released in 2004 by Geneon on ''Volume 5: Mission Irresistible''.
 
At the ancestral Ishikawa home in Japan, Goemon is rather annoyed when Jirokichi "Rat-Boy" Nezumi IV makes an apperance to deliver a note: at midnight of the next day, he will steal the treasured family chamberpot. After consulting with his friends, Lupin makes a friendly offer to take care of Rat-Boy for Goemon; taking it as a sign of dishonor, Goemon leaves, determined to take care of the threat himself. He returns home to find Rat-Boy comfortably ensconced in the family bathtub. Furious, Goemon goes after him, but Nezumi urges the samurai to calm down; the note was actually an excuse to meet Goemon and offer a chance to team up with him. Confused and curious, Goemon decides to listen to Nezumi.
Line 12:
That night, a drunk comes in, arrested for fighting on the street. Annoyed at having to deal with such a minor thing, Zenigata orders the man locked in a jail cell. There, the drunk sits quietly on the cot within and waits...
 
The next morning, Jigen wakes up after dozing off on his watch just as Lupin arrives. It's 11 o'clock, and there's only one hour before Nezumi's noon deadline to steal the prize. Lupin tells the apologetic gunman to relax, as he has things under control. Around the same time, Rat-Boy's toilet bomb goes off, flooding the restroom and threatening the research room that happens to be directly under it. Zenigata orders officers to surround the room, but only remove the documents on his orders. He then rushes upstairs to the restroom just in time to see Rat-Boy, now disguised as a plumber, finish his repairs. As Zenigata rushes back to check on the other room, Rat-Boy unzips a bag and pulls out a rat, Liza, and Zantetsuken. He ties the sword to the rat and sends both down a nearby vent. Liza successfully delivers Zantetsuken to the cell holding the drunk, who is, of course, a disguised Goemon.
 
Ripping off his mask, Goemon cuts open the cell and runs out, tearing through the halls of the police station and causing chaos. Zenigata, upon hearing Goemon is present, assumes Lupin is around as well and gets excited, temporarily forgetting about Rat-Boy. He sends the guards around the research room to assist, staying behind to guard the documents himself. Suddenly, the plumber calls for help from upstairs, and Zenigata enters the restroom, only to be clubbed by Rat-Boy. Taking Zenigata's key, Rat-Boy runs down to the research room, opens the lock, and removes the prize from within. As he exits down a hallway, though, Zenigata, apparently recovered from his blow to the head, blocks the way. The two struggle, and in the process, Rat-Boy drops the prize. Forced to flee, he leaps through a nearby window. Zenigata picks up the prize and removes his mask to reveal none other than Lupin himself.
