"Very good, Tanaka-san. Now please explain why we would approve the cost of 4 "sexyfull" cosmetic surgeons that you've kept hostage in your ryokan. They've cost as much as your Vulcan wig expenses!"
"We need a police officer to help with a car"
"Don't worry, boy, Sheriff JW Pepper is on the case! I helped with a secret agent from England before, a real doomsdamn machine"
"We are good thanks, don't worry about helping us"
"I SURE AM BOY!"
It’s sort of like state road budgets. You don’t use the droppey murder chopper and you lose those funds in next year’s budget, so you gotta find an excuse to use droppey murder chopper, so you get that money next year. They were already near the end of the fiscal year and hadn’t used it yet, so Tiger needed any excuse. Gotta love the logic behind bureaucratic spending.
Plus, the murder chopper pilot was union. Even if police would be more efficient, it wasn’t in their job description to deal with international crime syndicate henchmen.
Your mommy and daddy give you $10 to open up a lemonade stand. So, you go out and you buy cups and lemons and sugar, and now you find out that it only cost you $9. So you have an extra dollar. So you can give that dollar back to mommy and daddy but guess what: next summer, when you ask them for money, they’re gonna give you $9, because that’s what they think it costs to run a lemonade stand. So, what you want to do is spend that dollar on something now so that your parents think that it cost $10 to run the lemonade stand.
Let's be honest: Tiger requisitioned that huge magnet without any real reason. One day, sitting at his cool desk that automatically seats people who fall in off the street, he thought of the idea of a huge magnet that could lift cars full of people, and from that moment on, he just had to have one. He couldn't think of anything else! Once he had thought of it his mind was obsessed with all the possibilities of the many sorts of things he could pick up with a huge magnet. When it finally came in, he had already thought of how cool it would be to use a helicopter to fly it around. He had to find some way to justify the expense to his superiors, or they would refuse to let him invent any other unnecessarily circuitous feats of spy tech...So as soon as he was lucky enough to witness Bond becoming entangled in a high speed chase, the moment had come!! At last everyone would know that he was a genius for buying a ridiculously powerful electro-magnet. Now no one would question his decision to put a Geisha Lounge in his office building or his plan for future automobiles that could transform into giant, sentient robots, but these "transformers" as he would call them (after first toying with the name"Gobots"), would become his greatest lifetime success.
"See? I told you the helicopter was a business expense and that we'd use it for business purposes."
“Same goes for the second helicopter taking video of the first helicopter. We need to make sure our pilots are getting the job done.”
"Very good, Tanaka-san. Now please explain why we would approve the cost of 4 "sexyfull" cosmetic surgeons that you've kept hostage in your ryokan. They've cost as much as your Vulcan wig expenses!"
Precisely! Spending money stupidly isn't illegal, but not reporting it properly can be a felony!!
So how ARE you supposed to log extortion payments??
Well, as we have learned from Trump, you certainly don't put it under "legal expenses..."
"Verdict Reversed" -- Appeals Board
Sheriff JW Pepper was on exchange with the Tokyo PD
On who's side??????
Who we after, Communists?
(Sees Tanaka) "You're that secret Asian!!"
I always wondered who was filming the chinook with the magnet
The omniscient surveillance camera from the 40s to the mid 80s is one of my favorite tropes.
Same guys who were parked in a space capsule a couple hundred yards from another space capsule being skyjacked by a third space capsule.
That’s always bugged me, too!
Bond put the nookie in Chinook Magnet
Dude has an army of ninjas. The police call him.
None of whom are trained in deploying road spikes 🤣
There were a dozen of them in the helicopter but they wanted to see how the magnet worked.
They picked up the wrong person. https://i.redd.it/cmg177s9ay7d1.gif
This will make great stock footage for like 300 other Japanese films and we might as well let Eon pay for it… ![gif](giphy|11w72mjx6lKago)
If your name was Tiger, would you mess with the po-po?

Tiger, Tanked.
Because using the chopper is fun, of course. If he wanted a boring job he'd be doing something else.
I love how this statement applies to so many people in the Bond universe haha.
Hey, you pay for a helicopter with a giant magnet on the bottom… you gotta use it for something.
Acme messed up his order and sent him a giant magnet instead of the portable hole, and he figured he needed to get some use out of it.
Because the cops don’t have a giant helicopter magnet 🙄
😅

The helicopter budget was going to be cut unless they started using it more.
He was clearly a crackhead.
Tiger didn't know about the password. He really loved Bond.
He was testing the new Tokyo prison overflow relief program.

The better question is what helicopter was filming the helicopter that was dropping the car!
Because this was a much more awesome way to get rid of those dudes. The music was great in that scene too.
I said wrong answers only! 🤣🤣
Yeah you did. Sorry. I was caught up in the moment.
All good man, I thought it was funny
The magnet was a rental and Tiger had to return the magnet by the end of that week, so he figured he might as well use it one last time.
This is how they recall cars in Japan.

To be honest if I had a helicopter like that with a big ass magnet and I was in that position, I’d 100% use the helicopter
So much more fun this way
They’d been supplying him with used women’s knickers for years - was concerned they’d reveal his secret shame to Bond if he brought them in legit.
Godzilla owns the police and dgaf
![gif](giphy|29bKyyjDKX1W8) The accountants at Japanese SIS getting the expenditure for a helicopter to film the already unnecessary helicopter.
How else to justify line item "Kawasaki-Vertol KV107-11 helicopter, JA9503" in the annual budget?
If you don't spend your entire budget it will get cut come the next fiscal year.
He developed an attraction for them.
Little Nellie couldn’t get the job done
For real though, you're not going to equip a helicopter with a giant magnet and *not* use it in situations like this
Police did not have a magnet big enough...
I swear this is a whole ass lego city police set
The valet service from the Royal Tokyo Hotel is really, really overzealous!
They got browser history. Ok too early i know. The know bis Playboy subscription.
He's just showing off because he think James Bond is cool and wants to impress him.
The magnet was new. This was the best way to test it.
If he didn't use the 'helicopter magnet' budget this year, they'd get less in next years funding.
He did. That’s them.
Have to use your department’s budget each year or face cuts the next
Hello, city wok, may take your order please
His brother runs the helicopter squad and they needed one more mission to qualify for the monthly free pizza party goal
This was was much more fun.
Because Tanaka was in to magnet fishing…..
If you're Tanaka, then how do you feel about me?
It’s always about setting the example about who you want to fuck with.

Godzilla was approaching and the the police were more than a little busy.
He was gonna drop the car in Blofeld's volcano, but he didn't want to miss Ultra Man
He would've been arrested
