    4:30 That look of panic/dread when she realized her "can't be mine, redheads don't use black eyebrow pencils" excuse fell apart because she uses one to apply her beauty mark. And rather than press it, Columbo says "I can tell you're not interested, I'll ask someone else", leaving her shaken and wondering if she'd gotten away with it or if he was toying with her.
    Oh, that subtle psychological pressure, repeatedly chipping away at the killer. Kind of like being nibbled to death by a duck (Peter Falk quote.)

    I saw the full episode of this recently. The murder was accidental because as he himself had told her, he didn't write the formula anywhere, he had it memorized. She flew into a rage when he spurned her and didn't realise in the heat of that moment what the impact of the microscope she used to strike him over the head would be until he was dead.

      That's all you got out of this episode? Mustn't be a Columbo fan then. It doesn't help when they try to kill Columbo by attempting to poison him, or point a gun at him. Even in real life if a traffic officer notices a car driving erratically and gives chase, they start throwing drugs out on to the road in full view of them.

    Interestingly, the first kill (Carl Lessig) was not 'premeditated' whereas the second kill was. Thus, if the latter could be proved in a court of law, she would receive a _longer_ sentence for it than the 'original crime'!

    This episode made in 1973 was a bit too early for anti-wrinkle creams. I think the first true anti-wrinkle creams in the modern sense of them, only started to become commercially available from the late 1980's onwards. This was not one of my favourite episodes but it would be in my top 20. The actress who plays the secretary Shirley Blain is familiar to me, I have seen her guest starring on TV shows made during the 70's, Kojak, Ironside, Rockford Files and a few others.
