I love that the murder was so meticulously done. Then along comes Columbo and he starts unraveling everything. Lol. Such as Dale asking what time it was, and searching for cufflinks in his car in order to establish an alibi. Or figuring out it was a woman running away that the security heard.
Columbo zeroing on Dale right away made sense given he had the most to gain. Or at least, Columbo thought so before the will was read. By the time it was read, even more clues were pointing to Dale anyway.
Loved the skits. Columbo and the naked model were so funny with his reactions. Columbo and Tracey's neighbor going through the album was hilarious with his facial expressions. Lol.
Ross Martin was really good as Columbo's foe. Snobbish and pretentious. Kim Hunter was good as ditzy but likable Edna. Vic Tayback played an up-and-coming artist. I always remember that guy as Mel from that comedy show, Alice.
Loved the catch-em moment at the end. How clever, and even devious was it of Columbo to get his own fingerprints on the artwork? Lol. And then when he pulled his gloved hands. Boom! Dale was rendered speechless.
Such good stuff. I can recall off-hand a couple of other times when he used "self" as a catch-em moment. In "Columbo Goes to College" he used his wife's car to catch-em. And in "A Friend in Deed," he used an apartment he rented to catch-em. Anyway, this was such an enjoyable one to watch. 9/10.
