Thanks, I finally nail this one.

Inspector Jacques Clouseau (later chief inspector) is a fictional detective in Blake Edwards's Pink Panther series. In most of the films, he was played by Peter Sellers, with one film in which he was played by Alan Arkin and one in which he was played by an uncredited Roger Moore. In the most recent Pink Panther film and its 2009 sequel, he is played by Steve Martin. Sellers is widely regarded as the definitive Inspector Clouseau of pop culture by fans and critics alike.

He is also the inspiration of the main character in a series of short animated cartoons inspired by the titles of the feature films. Though the character in the animated The Inspector was never given a name, he is clearly based on Clouseau.

In many countries, such as Greece, this character's name has become synonymous with policemen who keep making ludicrous assumptions and are utterly unable to crack even the easiest

I knew I could just give you the punch line. Pretty soon we'll be able to just call out numbers.

Classic stuff .. when the dentist gives him laughing gas and pulls the wrong tooth.

Good stuff
When lying, dont be afraid of contradicting yourself later. Lies are not for making people actually believe, they are just for evading a temporarily awkward situation.
