At a psychiatric hospital, former Chief Inspector Charles Dreyfus Herbert Lom is largely recovered from his obsession to kill the new Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau Peter Sellers and is about to be released when Clouseau, arriving to speak on Dreyfus behalf, drives Dreyfus insane again. Dreyfus promptly escapes from the asylum and once again tries to kill Clouseau by planting a bomb while the Inspector by periodic arrangement duels with his manservant Cato Burt Kwouk. The bomb destroys Clouseaus apartment and injures Cato, but Clouseau himself is unharmed, being lifted from the room by an inflatable disguise. Deciding that a more elaborate plan is needed, Dreyfus enlists an army of criminals to his cause and kidnaps nuclear physicist Professor Hugo Fassbender Richard Vernon and the Professors daughter Margo Briony Mc. Roberts, forcing the professor to build a doomsday weapon in return for his daughters freedom. Clouseau travels to England to investigate Fassbenders disappearance, where he wrecks their family home and ineptly interrogates Jarvis Michael Robbins, Fassbenders cross dressing butler. Although Jarvis is killed by the kidnappers, to whom he had become a dangerous witness, Clouseau discovers a clue that leads him to the Oktoberfest in Munich, West Germany. Meanwhile, Dreyfus, using Fassbenders invention, dissolves the United Nations headquarters in New York City and blackmails the leaders of the world, including the President of the United States and his Secretary of State based on Gerald Ford and Henry Kissinger, into assassinating Clouseau. However, many of the nations instruct their operatives to kill the other assassins to gain Dreyfuss favor and possibly the Doomsday Machine. As a result of their orders and Clouseaus habitual clumsiness, the assassins all end up killing each other until only the agents of Egypt and Russia remain. The Egyptian assassin Omar Sharif shoots one of Dreyfus henchmen, mistaking him for Clouseau, but is seduced by the Russian operative Olga Bariosova Lesley Anne Down, who makes the same mistake.

Because of the often physical nature of the comedy, this would occur quite frequently. Julie Andrews provided the singing voice for the female impersonator Ainsley Jarvis. The scene in the night club when Jarvis sings are in many ways similar to scenes in Edwardss later film Victor Victoria 1. Andrews plays a woman pretending to be a man who is a female impersonator. Graham Stark, longtime friend of Sellers, once again makes an appearance in the series, albeit in a small role as the desk clerk of a small German hotel. Since his role as Hercule La. Joy in A Shot in the Dark, he has since appeared in small roles in every Pink Panther sequel except Inspector Clouseau, in which Sellers did not play Clouseau. Omar Sharif appears, uncredited, as the Egyptian assassin. Tom Jones sang the Oscar nominated song Come To Me. The role of Olga Bariosova was originally played by Maud Adams who was replaced after filming a few scenes. Blake Edwards then intended to cast Nicola Pagett after seeing her in Upstairs, Downstairs but instead ended up casting Pagetts fellow TV star Lesley Anne Down in the role. Blake Edwards made a cameo appearance in the background of the night club scene. ProductioneditThe Pink Panther Strikes Again was rushed into production owing to the success of The Return of the Pink Panther. Blake Edwards had used one of two scripts that he and Frank Waldman had written for a proposed Pink Panther TV series as the basis for that film, and he used the other as the starting point for Strikes Again. As a result, it is the only Pink Panther movie which has a storyline Dreyfus in the insane asylum that explicitly follows on from the previous film. The movie was in production from December 1. September 1. 97. 6, with filming taking place from February to June 1. The strained relationship between Sellers and Blake Edwards had further deteriorated by the time production of Strikes Again was underway. Sellers was mentally and physically in bad shape, and Edwards commented on the actors mental state If you went to an asylum and you described the first inmate you saw, thats what Peter had become. He was certifiable. The original cut of the film ran for 1. Some of the excised footage was later used in Trail of the Pink Panther. Strikes Again was marketed with the tagline Why are the worlds chief assassins after Inspector ClouseauWhy not Everybody else is. Like its predecessor and subsequent sequel, the film was a box office success. During the films title sequence, there are references to televisions Alfred Hitchcock Presents and the films Batman, King Kong, The Sound of Music which starred Blake Edwardss wife, Julie Andrews, Dracula AD 1. Singin in the Rain, Steamboat Bill Jr., and Sweet Charity, putting the Pink Panther character and the animated persona of Inspector Clouseau into recognizable events from said movies. There is also a reference to Jaws in the end credits sequence. The scene in which Clouseau impersonates a dentist and the use of laughing gas and pulling the wrong tooth are clearly inspired by Bob Hope in The Paleface 1. Richard Williams later of Roger Rabbit fame supervised the animation of the opening and closing sequences for the second and final time original animators De. Patie Freleng Enterprises would return on the next film, but with decidedly Williamesque influences. Sellers was never happy with the final version of the film and publicly criticized Blake Edwards for misusing his talents. The strain in their relationship is noted in the next Pink Panther movies opening credits Revenge Of The Pink Panther listing it as a Sellers Edwards production.
