       A dentist is working on Columbo’s mouth while “Donna e mobile” plays on a radio. He is talking about Italians. The dentist has equipment that reminds me of my very first visit to a dentist ever: run by cables.

       “You’ll have that ready by Saturday.”Record scratch. Columbo learns that it takes 10 days for this tailor to make a jacket. This might be one of the details that nails his murderer.

       This episode is far more about Columbo than it is about the murderer, and we have not has as much Columbo-murderer interaction as is usual.

       Wow, this trap depends on the way phone calls worked in 1973. Toll calls, specifically. Remember toll calls? You, uh, might not.
