Inspector Bouchet

Inspector Bouchet also known as Double X is the main antagonist in Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo. Portrayed by late actor Jacques Marin.

Background
He is a French inspector who works for the French police in Paris and investigating the case of the stolen diamond. Little did anyone that the thieves Max and Quincy were working for him and gave them the codes to the security systems in order to steal the diamond.

When his henchman fail many times to retrieve the diamond from Herbie's gas tank, he gets his chance when Jim Douglas and Wheely Applegate asked to have him put Herbie in protective custody. He gets his chance but his assistant Fontenoy insists on taking care of Herbie which he does.

After Max and Quincy again fail to retrieve the diamond he flies to Monte Carlo and attempts to steal it back himself. However Fontenoy intervenes again and explains his findings on how the security systems were disabled. Finally Bouchet reveals his true self by pointing a gun and taking the diamond from Jim's hands. However he's outsmarted by Herbie when he rolls onto his foot and smacks his gun out of his hand.

He sadly gives back the diamond and is arrested by Fontenoy with minor apologies.
