All language subtitles for Columbo S02e04 (1080-A12)

So it.

I think it was you.

That's big man in it.

Oh, that's the thing
that old is only a minute smoke.

Not that little rendezvous
meant very much to be ridiculous.

No one would believe that.

From what I hear, your wife might know Sir
Roger better than you do, sir.

Filthy smoke, ma'am.

I didn't mean to pry,
but I can handle this.

Pardon me.

Not only do
I need to see to play this part,

the character is not a pushover, so that's
all right.

We will change the crown in the third act.

Make a note.

And how about the heater
in my dressing room?

The whole thing's going to explode
any minute, I told the stage doorman.

And he will fix it when he can.

Galili at your entrance
at the top of the Dagestani.

My entrance,
that scenery is covered in nails.

If you want to see me
disrobed and disembowel,

just carry on like hammering
as fast as they can.

Now, can we please get back to the subject
at hand, which in this case

happens to be your emergence
at the top of the scene might emerge

the top of the with more speed
and with more conviction.

I'm going to repeat, ignored my request.

I am playing it
back to face to face. I have

all of these different notes

lenses to bring it back
to my dressing room, the late Mickey.

I don't know better, not.

Where the hell have you been?

I see the Queen.

Look, we're an hour late
now for the dinner break

and I would like to get this person up
before midnight

on what it is going to be quite dark.

Oh yes.

Well, I've got at least 30 changes
to argue with you,

and Lily keeps insisting
you will do whatever you say.

Aren't we always the little lamb?

Nick, are you smashed?

Pay no attention to him, darling directors
always hysterics by gracious wife.

I'll give it to you

now after the birth of everyone
tonight on late princess.

Remember

one of you

will see cleared out of our castle.

All right, everybody, back in one hour.

Let me know

how would you like to do a doll's house
in New York next season?

Oh, the star is a magnificent film

at Serratos expense? No.

Mm hmm. Oh.

Her mother.

Well,

I haven't said I'm home.

No, I'm not, but

I love the word of God, just surprise.

But you never go to dress rehearsal.

I think I managed to get in
without being noticed.

But you couldn't
stand not seeing me for another whole day.

Could you?

Is anything wrong,

you aren't worried about this
production of Macbeth, are you?

We're going to get rave news.

Well,
you know, actors were all just children

anyway.

Roger,
I had the most perfect idea for Sandy.

I was walking past Covent Garden.

Nicole, never know who you think have gone
to visit my cousin with arthritis.

So I got two seats for the symphony.

We'll be all alone in a box
together, afterwards, afterwards.

What do you think I am?

You lied,

you didn't buy those tickets
today on this show

and last weekend under Brighton,
I suppose he arranged that for us to.

Not that our little rendezvous
meant very much.

It was so convenient they had a headache.

Oh, Roger.

But now this is a pleasant surprise.

Lily, what a curious position knew
you were conniving Pandora.

You put her up to every bit of it.

He's gone out of his mind.

He's come straight out
of a Victorian novel and all just really

into reopening my theater,
into backing you and into play.

Angel to a has been leading man
and his aging Angelou.

Listen to you to be quiet and realism.

I don't know
who's been telling you stories, but

if you're implying any misunderstanding
about my wife's deep

devotion to my bride, she looks on
you as her own father, don't you, Lily?

That's enough.

Today, I finally realized, after all
my years as a producer, I have simply been

taken taken by a ham and a tart
Roger Ailes , but give you a nasty life.

You've just helped me
decide that I won't be in Macbeth.

I'm going out until the whole company.

This plays is not only canceled,
but I'll see to it

that neither one of you ever works
again on any state project.

No. Mr Tan, hope everything alright.

What?

Yes. Is Mr. Freeman there with you?

We're about ready for curtain drill.

Just a little family type.

That's all.

We'll be ready.

But they got me to do caused Thailand.

Neither of us did

what I can do.

I could tell them that he attacked us.

So, you know, so look

ridiculous.

No one would believe that

no one saw him coming that night.

Places, please.

first act places, Mr and hope.

This is that document,

how is it with me?

Well, every noise appalls me.

What happens, I hear it back up

my thighs.

Will all Neptune's

ocean wash this blood clean from my head?

Now, though,
this my hand will rather the multitude

in the seas in Canada
in making the green one

that my hands of the all color.

A shame to wear a heart so white

I hear a knocking at the south entry

retiree to our chamber,
a little water clear, as is of this deed.

How easy is it?

Then your constancy had left
you unattended.

Be not lost so poorly in my thoughts.

No, I do not know myself.

Wait, Duncan, was I knocking?

I would like

it, did you call Rogers?

Not that he hadn't been in town all day.

He must have talked to
someone makes no difference.

The club was positive
that Roger was alone at home this evening.

I don't know how it's 20 miles

looked at the lack

of evidence.

Well, the expectation is that

the comments about where napkins

enough about you here
you were sweating for it.

Knock, knock, knock.

Pontiacs going on.

Oh, excuse me, ma'am.

I thought it'd be a good chance
to fix you, Rita Pipes here.

You know what?

With all that knocking going on out there,
I won't be a jiffy

crossing up in a little bit.

No, don't bother with the heat to Niger
or not.

You freeze from icicle.

No, no, no, no.

No. Late
night is going to go tripping over

pipes and tools when I leave lying
all over.

That's all right, Joe.

I don't mind. Fix it tomorrow.

I just want you to be comfortable.

Very kind of you, Jack. So.

The Queen, my lord, is dead.

She should have died after

would have been the time for such a word.

Tomorrow, better tomorrow and tomorrow.

It'll be tomorrow
if you don't get a move on petty pace

from day to day
to the last syllable of recorded time.

And all our yesterdays have lighted

fools the way to dusty death.

Out out, brief candle.

I sort a walking shadow or poor player

struts and frets his hour upon the stage
and then is heard no more.

It is a tale told Larry Richard Thaler

sound and fury signifying

nothing.

I found his car,

I brought it around close in the alley
stereo, Mr Frank.

Stop raining, you know,

and it's so nice.

I'm sorry, I'm so slow.

I guess we're the last ones. Yes.

Still 20 minutes to closing time

next door down here as

I look out for you.

Oh, that's
most gracious of you said that about night

stand out.

Fox's umbrella.

We. If it were done

when is done and one when it was done
quickly

had a dirty mind.

Freddie, what's up?

Scotland Yard out there, they must've
lost some bloke in the airport dangerous.

No big VIP coming in from the state
him entirely.

Bit of an embarrassment.

Excuse me, sir.

Didn't happen to notice my luggage
in purple kind of flowers.

Actually in my luggage inquiries
bill lets up.

I was in there.

There was no one there.

I mean,

you don't mind if I just take a look
at this loose handle here,

you see last night
when my wife was packing,

I happen to have seen any senator
or film star Typekit here. Free

now warning you on Ruddy Great Detective
from Los Angeles that you checked in.

Ma'am, I'm

terribly sorry, I didn't mean to do that,
I thought it was my mistake.

I lost my bag, my mind.

This is not mine.

I know that now that I saw her
with my son, it'll make a stop.

So now you don't mind if we have a look
at your baggage stubs now do.

Well, I don't have any.

That's the problem, sir.
I thought I had some. I had them here.

My passport came in on eight,
seven or seven from L.A.

and I thought I had them right in here.

I think I made a mistake
when I came in the wrong door.

Quite so. Now you don't mind
just stepping over here with me.

Do you like to help us? No, thank you.

I'm quite sure you can explain it all
to the inspector, sir.

This way, sir. one moment.

Kick it off

right now, so you can use your luck now.

Well, it's not your fault.

He missed his plane, so he didn't miss it.

I just check with the airline, Freddy.

Not a police lieutenant.

I was just about to put the arm
on this little finger on my watch

where I there saw him.

There, you, Sarge.

Fill us in, Constable.

Oh! Took a fall down the staircase,
it landed

just the fully clad
must have eaten before midnight.

Doctor so what with the rigor mortis?

But we added it all up quite neatly.

Sir Roger was reading in the upstairs
sitting room, you see,

and he started to come down.

Here we are, Charlie.

Dear in times of trial.

I always say this cold beer.

Yes. Well, I'll just have a word
with the servants.

Colombo look around as much as you like.

It's quite an old show place, really. We.

Excuse me.

Irish whiskey
before lunch, and I would have thought,

perhaps that a glass of Sherry
and Samantha

Lado would have been more appropriate
well enough, you know?

Thank you very much.

I really wasn't looking for a drink. No,
I was.

I was just wondering.

I wondered, Could you tell me?

Do you know whether or not Mr?

The gentleman, Sir Havisham,
was that the chair

that he was reading in last night?

And as a matter of fact,

that was the Raj's favorite
to have any wants to read. Yes.

Oh, I see.

Terrible thing
it. Yeah, it's very shocking.

Thank you very much.
Why do you suppose he started downstairs?

No idea how I'm going to get any liquor.

Certainly plenty of stuff up here.

Well, I say it's enough for me to question
my masters, which is

just a matter of fact.

You sometimes prefer to have a cup
of cocoa as a nightcap from the kitchen.

You work here.

Indeed, I do.

I've been here many.

Happy Year.

I thought you were a friend are fantastic.

Thank you very much.

And you, I take you to the gentleman
who rang the bell.

Just how. Well, that works. Indeed, it
does.

Gee, I thought it was just decoration

for as funny and it was funny.

No, I was just wondering if

if he wanted something last night,
why he didn't just ring for it.

Well, if I may say so.

Unlike many masters, Sir
Roger was very considerate to his staff.

Perhaps you'll be good enough
to excuse me.

Oh, certainly, sir, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to hold you up.

I just get curious about these things.

I guess nobody heard anything
when he phoned downstairs.

That's understandable.

You see, Cook's
quarters are in the south wing

and the mate almost asleep
that I live in the old cottage

and it so happens is rather
dismissed as early last night.

I should say not later than 7:00,
but I was wondering if that's the car

that cannot be named after here
for over 20 years.

Columbo?

Yeah, the lieutenant lieutenant's here
from Los Angeles for a few days, he's

observing our latest techniques
at the yard. How interesting.

That's how some of it rubs
off, as they say, Oh, thank you very much.

I certainly hope so.

Well, listen
now if you're the butler, then maybe

you know this is not too important,

but with your permission, it's just that
I noticed that somebody said that

Sir Roger was fully dressed
and I was wondering,

I guess they meant by that
that he was wearing like a smoking jacket.

Action is a Roger
was wearing a gray tweed suit

with a blue tie while he was reading

anyways.

And that, you know,
I can't even stand a necktie,

Sir Roger,
if I may say so, was it rather particular?

Quite well.

Shall we be getting along, Columbo?

Oh yeah.

Oh sure.

You know, I couldn't help noticing

you have a moment.

No, I couldn't help noticing that a man
with such an impressive

library, isn't it funny
what he did to that book, but?

I mean, if this was the book

that Saroja was reading last night,
I'm afraid I don't follow you.

This is a valuable book.

Alice in Wonderland first edition.

I imagine it's worth a few thousand. Yes.

You see back
on, we call this the spine of the book,

and you know, you can break that thing
by putting it down upside down like that.

Of course,
I never knew that until I did it to

my mother in law's cookbook,
she almost hit me with a frying pan.

Well, perhaps she was in a hurry.

Or perhaps something startled him.
Yes, sir.

You know,
maybe that's why he started downstairs.

Maybe he heard something.

He was an older fellow, and he yes.

Just looking

for his reading glasses
because I didn't notice any around.

Would you mind asking the gentleman,

Cory?

Mr. Columbo,
I would like to know the whereabouts

of Sir Rogers glasses, if you don't mind?

No, not at all.

Actually, Mr.

Rogers customer,

we're not actually reading to keep
his spectacles in his breast pocket.

And if you must know, that's
why there still are.

I met a guy smashed up pretty badly
after he fell down all of those stairs.

Well, he didn't actually waste time

looking at the broken glass
under such tragic circumstances.

Besides, we noticed nothing
unusual or abnormal.

No, no, no.

Just a just a simple accident.

Well, thank you, Tanner.

And once again, my my sympathies.

Thank you, Mr.

Constable, sir.

I just had a thought you

might be chatting with here,
and this is going to tell my wife

that I met her roommate.

She's going to get a terrific kick at it.

I don't know.

Thank you.

Good bye.

After.

Oh. Oh,

oh, oh, oh,

please, gentle.

I can't.

So hold it just like that, Mr.

Prime.

Thank you, sir.

No, no, no, we don't think

they pull yourself together.

If you're out of here

alive and

well and just like a favorite daughter,

it is a large door to Mr Frame
and not much older than you was here.

Whose idea is this little bash?

This little bash is a dream, gentlemen

surrounds his own dream, which he could
hide Adobe on several occasions.

When I'm dead, he told me
I'd like one last chance to say goodbye

to this beautiful act of resistance
and that there is such a stiff upper lip.

And what about Macbeth, Mr Frames?

Somebody says
you're still opening tonight,

but but for his sake, not rise.

Oh, if go on as a Roger,
roll over in his grave, a spectacle

and proceed to the debate,
he always said the show must go on.

It doesn't hurt
advance ticket sales either. I suppose

I'll be right back gunning.

And lucky thing,

I pack in my pocket
instead of my suitcase.

Thank you. You got me somewhere.

You're American.

You got in yesterday, 707 eleven hours.

At least another photographer.

My makeup must have dreadful.

Actually, I did bring a camera

and I wanted to take a picture of you,
but not now.

Wrong time.

You can keep that thank.

I guess

you must have been as close to Sir
Roger Lady as anybody in the whole world.

He was our dearest friend.

Sir Roger was mostly retired,
you know, until the last few months

when he persuaded us to do this
lavish production

what he'd always wanted to do.

Now we won't even be able to see it.

Terrible time to ask,

but how could I get tickets
I'd love to see the show tonight.

Like I think I could,

but can't you a newspaper it?

You are a reporter on Roman.

Oh, no, I'm terribly sorry.

No, my name is Columbo.

I'm just visiting five firemen,
but it's just an expression.

I'm a policeman, please.

Actually, I'm just tagging along
with that fellow over there,

Mr Dirk.

Detective Chief Superintendent Scott.

Showing me around London.

Lieutenant, can we go now?

Oh yes, sir.

Let's
see if we can get out this way, shall we?

Excuse me, ma'am.

Wonderful talking to someone as famous
as you, and I hope I've been able

to make you feel a little better.

I, yup,
I had a word with a few little chaps

that bringing the body in about 2:00,
no fuss.

Listen, that was a great idea that you had
about checking up on those glasses.

I mean, if he fell all the way down that
staircase with his glasses in his pocket

and they weren't even cracked?

Actually, I am.

I rather had it on my mind request a post
mortem post postmortem autopsy.

Well, one
never knows where these little accidents.

You can never be.

In the meantime, you might like to take
a look at our politics laboratories

hyphenate to see a wonderful one.

Autopsy and detective chief

superintendent, that means the murder
squad, doesn't it, reliable?

Sure.

But why aren't you sure, Nikki,
they'll find something.

Oh, no, no, not here.

But this trunk is absolutely clean

and we lost a cold cream's other did that.

You hit him when I get it with.

If you had moved right,

nobody knows that
Roger was in the theater last night.

Nobody knows the lift home.

How do you know that he knew already
about us when he came here last night?

He must have been talking to someone.

And I bet I know who

that nasty little Mr Dudley,
child of yours.

Besides, I can handle that

let you try that just once
and I'll have your guts for God.

Lily, please.

Thank you, darling. Won't an autopsy

give a clue as to what we did with Roger's
body after he was dead?

I'm not sure. I really don't know.

But why don't you know?

Have you taken that part in the Agatha
Christie play like I told you do?

You wouldn't know.

You know perfectly.

Well what?

I didn't take that rubbish.

What, huh?

Phosphates
must hide with the first half dozen

now, huh?

Mr Decks a spot of tea this afternoon,

but my guest is rather hungry, George,
I've been holding him about sightseeing.

I'm afraid he hasn't had much time to eat.

But you can't sit here.

When you said, Clive, I

thought you meant a country club
or a health club. Hmm.

It's stuffy, I'm afraid.

Hasn't changed since Father's Day.

My father was an opened to
my mother stopped him.

Here we are now pitch in.

That for us. Yes.

Oh, when you said to you,
I was afraid we're going to get nothing

but those tiny savages. This is terrific.

Why do you think
we keep the ladies out to die?

What are you doing here?

That's my system to finish up the job.

This is Lieutenant Columbo,
Los Angeles Police.

Really,
that there's a place of opportunity.

20 times the business I get here.

Beg pardon.

Nevada's turn? Yes.

Go on Condit.

Now I'll just talk all week.

Diver is our pathologist. Oh.

Way to chop

postmortem lividity,
Mr de Vries was all over it.

That was your answer
before I made the first slice.

Oh, you know, the autopsy

surgeons children
is particularly nice today to find

that if you didn't know
more about postmortem than I do lieutenant

one opportunity , yeah,
then these papers are still wet.

Just notice those purple spots. Hi, there.

Oh yes,

I do stop.

Don't
wait for us to get to the point diver.

You mean the body was moved?

Oh yes, some little time after that.

Okay,

what time did he die
and in the abdomen to necessarily

apply to settle or anywhere
from early evening to midnight?

I thought the fluid sample.

I don't think that
there was much more than Sir

Roger did not die
by falling down a staircase.

I don't know how he died somewhere else,
and then he was moved later on. Hmm.

You know, several bruises
almost could have been a factor

subglacial physical region
causing a brain hemorrhage that

you really cannot.

Oh yes, it's murder or a

stroke.

Mm-Hmm.

Thank you.

You, Tana.

Go on, go on.

Well,

this is a surprise.

I must say I didn't expect
to see you here at this hour,

but they are opening
and everything tonight.

This must be dreadful for you, Tanner.

Thank you.

Miss and for you too, for all of us.

Turner,
I didn't want to bring this up at this

time,
but something's been bothering me, my.

So Henry Irving remember Irving
as the other day out on the terrace,

I was showing it to Sir
Roger Irving's own copy of Macbeth.

Up call

is what I listed here for Roger,
have a look at.

I didn't realize and you need it
before your performance tonight, scarcely.

I do know my lines.

But that old book had Irving's
own comments on every page,

and I got to thinking, You know,
when someone dies, it's always all that

legal nonsense.

Now, inventories
and I'm sealing things up. And

since
it is just about the most valuable thing,

I don't quite understand
very well that they're stupid facts.

People even say, I'll slip it to myself
and mum's the way I do.

I'd rather not going down any family.

And as I understand some of moment.

That actor fella frame.

That's odd.

I thought he had a play opening.

Hey, that is, stop that.

You better leave that.

We don't want anything
touched for a while.

Scotland Yard, said Rogers. Huh?

George, you're pretty well, Mr.

Tanner says. Watch them.

I watch them play out.

Have very dirty anyhow.

Few spots at all.

Say you watch his car.

I watch it every day.

You take it with his own blooming cherry.

Murdered.

Oh, God,

I can't believe it.

Yes, well, we'll see
the autopsy showed the

but we won't go into those little details.

No luck
that wasn't in the downstairs library.

It wasn't anywhere that could.

This is Superintendent Dirk.

He says that someone
murdered Podio, Roger.

Oh, good heavens.

But now I do have to pray as Donna.

Yeah, she's now downstairs.

I've looked everywhere,
even in the Rogers say,

what is this you are all looking for?

Oh, nothing a book.

We were out there to drive.

Stop by.

That's all. It's not important, Tanya.

Mr. Jackson, just one moment the yard will
decide what's important here.

A book you say. What sort of book?

Well, it's a nice little volume
I lent to Roger one day last week.

So Henry Irving's

own copy of Macbeth had his own notes
scribbled on every page, really?

And now you say you can't find it?

No, that's true everywhere.

Everyone.

Did you hear that, Columbo?

Yes, sir, I did.

I was just wondering, who is Irving?

Excuse me, sir.

Sir Henry Irving, perhaps the greatest
English actor who ever lived.

Well, one of them, let's say.

But I
do suppose that little copy of Macbeth

must be worth all of the 20 or 30,000
by now you had at Columbia.

But then of mind, I'm sure it'll turn up.

We have an 8:00 curtain, so please call us
if there's anything we can do.

Mr. Deck, my dear fellow,
you already have.

You already have

no simple deduction, I suppose.

Suppose there were a thief in the house.

Suppose that's what Sir
Roger heard came down to investigate.

Would you excuse me for just one moment,

Mr. Tanner?

Yes. Tanner, sir,

could you tell me, was there any sort of
rain out here last night rains?

No, we haven't had a drop all the week.

Excuse me.

I say
you won't forget where you want to get.

You won't forget my take it for tonight.

No, I live in the box office in my name.

Hook, line and

sinker. I'm.

And can.

I work.

I don't know what to do.

I wasn't really.

Well, maybe you'll buy me some day,
but you will simply fall.

Thank you, Lily.

Astounding. Absolutely astounding.

How you obviously.

Me, Roger, because you've seen it.

Yeah.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, it's you.

I think I stepped on something and broke.

Oh, no. Oh,

Jesus.

Somebody who's next

line feeling.

I thought I found all the beach
last night.

It was like this.

My wardrobe
mistress made me another one this morning.

Lillian. Oh, gorgeous.

Oh, you are fantastic.

Just fantastic. How are you?

Excuse me, Sarah,
but not our own divine Sarah.

In other words, I want to.

This is just a little thing
that you broke last night

during that little fight again.
That's right.

Oh, darling,
did you really are incredible?

Of course, I'm too young for it.

But what did you say, darling?

Listen, before I forget,
let me thank you for the tickets.

I have never been so sure I saw happen,
but that was back in high school.

I mean, tonight when you stood there
with that bloody dagger

and it really wasn't it, John,
you've had her long enough.

Oh yes. Lily, love what in sight?

What did?

Oh, you were deeply Donohue on the past.

I don't think I'll come tomorrow night, so

they obsess and I was like,

Thank you.

They are.

So you liked it better than any movie
I've ever seen in my whole life.

I don't know what that fellow Irving had,
but believe me, the way you talk about

all things
never really, really, really bad.

Thanks for coming tonight.

I say oh by the by the time
the little book of mine, I don't think so.

So no. Oh,
you were simply marvelous tonight.

Thank you.

Good of you to come by.

Oh yeah, they seem to think
there was a robber in a house, I guess.

Could not.

00, well, that would explain things.

I mean, if if Old Roger
called him in the act and no, sir,

I don't think so, sir.

Nicky, darling,
you were simply monochromatic.

You might upset him.

You don't think so.

No, no.

I don't think so.

Because if you kill Sir Roger
and then move the body

in order to make it look like an accident,

I mean,
with all those beautiful things around,

why would he just take one book with you
right on the key frame?

Well, hey, hi.

Thanks much.

Good.

Good to see you.

Look, we've got
we've got to have a drink that way.

All right.

Thank you, dear.

Thank you. We did try for righteously.

Disney needs a damn good résumé,

it's been a good day.

Oh, here you are again.

I've done what little snook told you.

There was a bike in here
while she perhaps planned.

Oh no, just some guy in overalls out
there have an imaginary friend

who can I always find?

Ma'am, I didn't mean to pry.

See, I was just asking him about the rain
Miller. You get your clothes off.

It's time to celebrate the rain

spots on the hood. Huh.

Oh, Barnett.

Well, anyway, on his car, and it hasn't
rained out there for over a week.

You think that Roger might have driven
someone else last night?

No, no, no.

Tanner wouldn't notice it
leaving, Mr Tanner says nonsense.

So I got to wondering.

Well, anyway, of course, from what I hear,

your wife might know Sir Roger
better than you do, sir, but at any rate.

Come along, Nick darling,
are you simply smashing party

as go on?

No. I was just going to say that the
the paper does

say that it's sprinkled here in London
a little last night,

but it must have rain in lots of places,
don't you think?

That's exactly what Mr Frame said.

Only I got the thinking.

Since you won, Sir
Roger was so close, well, maybe he just

might have come here to wish you luck
in private or something like that.

But he didn't.

I don't know what your man in overalls
told you or nobody saw.

Of course,
I haven't asked the stage doorman yet.

I can't seem to find them lieutenant.

The last time I saw Sir
Roger Havisham was the day before

yesterday was at the Dorchester for lunch.

Roger Lillian died

discussing plans
for an American production of Macbeth.

That's if the critics like us, of course.

And after lunch,
Nick and I came back here for rehearsal,

and Roger never interfered on those days.

But as the child died last night, Lily

struck me while he was making
fatherly eyes at one of the understudies.

Lily is paranoid, so I struck her back in
a not very nice place.

Lend against this wall over here.

Clumsy thing.

So I picked up my bloody
Deborah and I went,

Oh gosh, I'm sorry.

I didn't realize it
was so me didn't mean to stay so long.

Oh yes, you did.

Because I'm not some silly gossip,
I suppose.

But also, Roger, my wife is some vulgar
American notion of a love triangle.

No, sir, not at all.

It's a nasty idea that poor old Roger

must have endured in the tower last night
by Macbeth himself.

Perhaps.

Play is rather suggestive of murder,
I suppose, to impressionable minds.

Too bad
Betty didn't come visit you at Christmas.

You could have got him tickets
for the children's pantomime.

He's stuffy. I'm terribly sorry.

Believe me, I guess I did get carried away
by those questions, but you see, I just

I just have never seen anything like you.

Like that of forms you both just gave.

Thank you.

I didn't mean to be nasty, old boy.

No hard feelings.

And you must be exhausted.

I don't know how you do it with innocent,
loving hearts.

Good night, lieutenant.

Well, whatever it is, it's

you all must be most unusual.

The reason I say that is because,

you know,
when my wife and I try to remember

what happened yesterday or the day
before, well, we don't agree on anything.

And you do.

You'll not only agree, you use almost
the exact same words to tell about it.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

After that performance,

we just gave a whole lot more.

Oh, and we can't have a leading lady
in her own door.

Oh, I just with to get a little snippet
from that right here.

Oh, and I never heard
such glorious remarks.

Oh, and you tell me,
I know you were an angel in the pot.

I've heard it 1000 times, I heard it once
the queen herself will be buying tickets.

Oh, give me, oh no, they do go on.

Well, and you get, Oh sir, that's most
especially gracious.

Thank you.

And you always managed to get dagger
in the blood and holding up your hand.

I kept our nation by making the audience
gasp.

Well, thank you both so much.
Good night, sir.

Good night, Mr. Snow. Good night.

Where

did he get that umbrella? Hmm.

And a little engraving on the handle,
just like the one that

once remember, Roger told us

that lady asked,
I'd given him this engraved.

You took the umbrella last night.

Yes, of course, I put it in Roger's

closet with his coat
and just where it belonged.

You're sure you got the right one?

Nick?

Yes, of course
it was the only one that I'm aware.

I mean, in my dressing room.

Well, Joe did pick up
some of his own things earlier.

Oh, no,

you're not

going to.

And I loved

the guy that I

am at all.

I have many, many love

here.

Watch it, make it.

Oh, I make stuff, right?

What do you like? What do you do?

I know you're going,
Oh, I couldn't get away

with Lily's country.

Cousins came by
until I stopped everything.

They've been talking forever. Yeah.

So you dobbing for a kind of wallaby?

Oh yeah.

Well, it was of

because it was still the same.

I put it in my car.
We allowed them to do things. Why that?

Extremely gracious of you, Mr Fine.
Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Very nice.

Oh, you know that
that's things are dangerous.

I stabbed somebody around me.

No, I'm I'm very careful with.

I have to do

that.

Photoshop,

I know I don't know what's happening

now, but why do you say Joe

Penny one penny a point,

all of the offer?

Well, you know, it's really, really true.

Well, relative rise mate happens to throw.

Well, I'm not going to be hard on you.

This is a problem.

To get

them out of balance.

Mm hmm.

That kind of

stuff that.

Been.

Queensway

felt thank you for saying
thank you very much.

Oh, that's it, so I really have to.

All right.

Yeah, I'm sitting there.

Oh, oh, 00000.

For the past year, Mr Price

lose out on hearing me.

No. How's that

for you, Mr Price?

Very gracious.

I was lucky to

have been given a lot of trust. Oh.

We you have a minute, sir.

Don't touch me.

Sorry.

That's the final stage door.

See, I was at the theater earlier,
but I couldn't find you around any place.

I was there and my our security is always

I wanted to ask you about yesterday

because you are the only person
who could have noticed anything yesterday.

My name is Columbo.

I know that doesn't mean
anything around here.

I wish I could find my wallet.

I've got a friend over there
at Scotland Yard, Mr Dirties,

chief of all the detectives there,
this is me, Columbo CEO Umberto Parecia.

Yes, if you want to ask me
about yesterday, I do so now,

tomorrow and tomorrow.

Did Mr. Havisham
come to the theater yesterday?

Did he call or anything like that?

If you happen to be referring?

To Sir Roger Habersham,

for 20 years,
I've been in his trusted employ

and never once have
I caught a glimpse of him

on dress rehearsal day.

Oh, it's the shrapnel.

Oh, sort of makes the Trotters a bit
wobbly.

Are you sure about yesterday?

I know sometimes it's
kind of hard to remember.

I mean, couldn't Sir
Roger have maybe come to the theater?

Are you calling me a liar? No.

Saying I wasn't at my post of duty.
No, sir.

Well, Monty, I was at El Alamein.

That's where I got mine, Mr Fenwick.

Can we maybe go to someplace more dry
some place where we could sit and talk?

I mean, I don't have an umbrella either.

You know, somebody who just impacted
my brolly right up there at the pub in No.

If the young ones, what does it?

The ones with the long hair.

If I were saying to Mr.

Frein,

there's no honor left in this war
saying no to Mr.

Ryan.

Mr. Nicholas Frein, the great actor.

Oh, and find a gentleman never brave.

And you know, you know, he took the time
to buy me a couple of times.

He did.

And for all of them to right there
the public section.

You mean Mr.

Frame was just now in that same pub?

And it's part of the trade.

But then I was afraid
you're going to have to it.

No, Mr.

Dirk told me to be better for me
to stay in the main house tonight

because we don't want in more robberies.

But, you know, ten, I got to thinking
we never looked in the same room.

Roger was always putting things
in that a little mahogany desk.

Excuse me, sir, and Mr.

Judd did say,

didn't want anything else to touch them,
but just to have a look this.

And the Irving is there.

Be right back down.

Well, now that you have hands,
it's fine it.

I'm sorry.

I don't know.

You were right, Lily.

Still, no.

Isn't that typical of my brainy

has been driving all this way out here,
all this hard, I crawled all the way back.

Hensley's, I want to drink.

Diana,
do you suppose we could, of course, madam?

No, it's too late now. Come on, Nick.

There's something I'd like to find here,
something of branches that I always loved.

I'm sorry, madam.

But the police were rather explicit.

Oh, hang on the police.

It's just that silly old tweed
patio was, well,

you know, the one with a feather in it.

I'd love to have it. Nick, it

must be in the closet somewhere.

one way to get it.

Didn't he keep it in the closet?

Yes, madam, it was.

Crime does seem a bit ghoulish.

Yeah, but yes, it's not there now.

The wax museum picked it up this morning

along with his cape,
an umbrella who, a wax museum.

They're using it,
I'm told in the new exhibit alongside

your wax
figures as Macbeth and Lady Macbeth.

I must say I thought I'd rather an honor
for the late master to be included.

Oh yes, yes, as Roger would be pleased.

The wax museum.

The things
some people will do to sell tickets.

And do you mean to say you let them
walk out of here with actually madam?

It was the downstairs maid
who saw the gentleman.

This is before Mr.

Debt came, of course, but I must say
I really saw nothing wrong about it.

Of course, we must all be willing
to share his memory with the public.

Yes. No.

I'm sorry. I I'm being selfish.

I think it's just lovely that now
the whole world will be able to see.

Everything.

Oh, dear.

Hi, Mr.

Look, I'm
sure sorry if I got you out of bed,

but at least
it doesn't look like you were asleep.

Do you mind if I commander? Seems to me
you are in.

Yeah.

Well, look, it's just a little thing
that I wanted to ask you about.

It's unimportant, but.

Well, it's about an umbrella.

An umbrella.

Come with me.

I can no.

Smells like the Roman catacombs.

I still don't think I was here before
he built the things for each exhibit

in a big box, jolly
just like a treasure hunt.

If we don't get hold grudges, umbrella
back where it belongs, get Joe's out.

You don't have to rub it in.

It wasn't my fault.

Oh, Mickey, oh hi, mom.

I've always wanted to be in a horror film
and it was certainly qualify.

Thanks. 00 yeah.

Sorry, Roger.

Oh, I hear

you as it is, Sergeant O'Keefe,
explain what this American wanted.

Yes, I got the message.
Jones here is unlocking for us.

Jones, you say, Well,
I hope I'm not wasting his time.

I just hope you don't think
it's a waste of time, sir.

Like I told your sergeant
on the telephone,

I know I shouldn't be interfering.

Nonsense, you're our guest here.

I invited you on the case myself, where

I was fortunate to have you on assistance.

Thank you.

Thank you very much, sir.

Because you see it's been bothering me.

Whoever arranged that little scene on
the staircase must have known

that I was pretty well.

And so I just happened
to turn a gentleman.

So this is where Sir Roger will go right
next to the new McMafia.

You come this way, gentlemen.

All our storage is downstairs.

We're now you're

opening your exhibit in a few days
and now that he's dead.

We'll carry it out.

You know,
people do enjoy that sort of thing.

Oh yes, naturally.

And over here,

where they live by a set of eyes,
they're coming over this way

because I think Siraj's
things are in one of these baskets.

I didn't think there was any harm.

Mr. Durkin
letting them have it around as follows.

After all,
he was famous for the way he dressed.

Oh good heavens. No, no, no.

Oh, but had.

Let's not wax.

Oh, yes.

We took it from a bus
that was made last year.

It's not a bad likeness.

Uh oh yes, here we are.

Now they know exactly what is it
you're looking for in here?

The umbrellas, sir.

Oh yeah, you see, I have this theory
that it might be the wrong one.

Otherwise,
why would the settlements be stolen?

I mean, if the state Gorman's umbrella
somehow got mixed up with the it's

quite quite we would know exactly where
Sir Roger went last night

if indeed he went anywhere at all.

All right. Very well, sir. Oh, thank you.

Mr Tanner said that the maid
might not have noticed the difference

when they took the stuff out. Mr. Tanner.

Could you identify this?

That's it, that's it, Rosewood, you see,
that was a gift from ladies two years ago.

Yeah.

Yes, the engravings, it faded.

And of course,
it had a material change time and again.

No, no. You're wrong.
You have to be wrong.

It is rajas.

I recognize it myself.

Oh, that's impossible.

Unless, of course, somebody.

Mr Tanner,

who else has been asking you
about umbrellas,

possibly just before
I arrived at the house tonight?

No one.

Are you certain?

Absolutely.

I could have sworn.

On my way out to the house,
my taxi was almost hit by one of those

English sports
cars, the same kind as Mr Frame drives.

We do have quite a number of English cars
over here

and I suppose you can find dangerous
drivers anywhere.

It's got to be an explanation.

Somebody feel a draft, a draft.

I think I feel the draft.

Maybe there's a window open.

Maybe somebody got in here
through a window.

Is this the only window open,
so that's the only window. Hmm.

So your bird has flown, huh?

What your little theory, Colombo.

Good Lord, look at the time, wait, please.

There has to be an explanation.

Oh, come come, come, come,
don't be so distressed.

At least it's been amusing chasing
an American wild goose for a change.

Hmm. Hmm.

Hmm, hmm. Hmm.

Astonishing new facts.

one would never have guessed
that this radiant AUNJANUE of years past

could deliver such power as Lady Macbeth,
almost as though

she were born for the part.

Oh, I love him.

And as for Mr Nicholas Frame's
surprisingly eloquent interpretation

of this Shakespearean tragedy,
I think it's the best.

Yeah, let's trade. Uh-Huh.

Yeah, right?

Oh, listen to this.

Regretfully, though,
Mr Nicholas Frame is still a glorious

voice was in charge of the evening
charging in various noble directions.

I told him that one Howard

and understanding and I was like,

Oh, I'm lovely and gorgeous

and the greatest actress
and Sarah Barnhart.

Oh darling,
I actually liked success, Your Majesty.

Stark raving success.

After all these years, it was miserable.

second leads.

Now nothing can stop us, can it?

And no one will ever be able to prove
that we were within miles of Roger.

When this

more cables and telegrams
going on straight

0000000000.

Good morning, sir.

I hope I'm not too late.

Excuse me, I hadn't noticed the Guardian
just reach the newsstands.

I thought,
Perhaps you'd like to be downstairs.

Oh, that's very thoughtful of you.

Get this quite a raves
and delighted to read that up to now.

You've only received one,
shall we say, inadequate notice.

Oh, but that was

once his crossover.

Nic, what is it?

Oh, good morning, madam.

I brought you some cross or fish for that
nice little daddy

on the Caribbean street.

I thought Adobe diatribe last night.

The least I could do was to set up your
breakfast in bed tonight with the devil.

I'm afraid
I won't be able to stay very long today

when someone in my position
suffers a tragic loss, madam.

one has to take one's future employment.

We already have a maid scarcely

and of critical persons of your station,
wouldn't you say?

And I don't see her canon.

What did you, by any chance who happen
to notice my husband buying tickets?

Covent Garden
the other day and told Roger about,

oh, very regrettable,
but loyalty to one's master.

Filthy.

I told you

it wasn't Mr Dudley coming out of here,
madam.

Please, please,
you know, Sir Roger was beginning to show

signs of distrust with regard
to your amorous interest in him.

But be rest assured
the view that in your employ,

my loyalty will be doubly great.

I take it.

That's the kitchen in their neck
with a tenner. Yes.

What else? Let me see.

Oh yes, it might interest you to know
that your concern about a certain umbrella

hasn't been mentioned to a single soul,
but I do hope that certain other

umbrellas have been properly disposed of
in the river by now.

Tana.

What sort of wages
would you expect working for us?

Oh madam, don't.

Let's talk about
that until after breakfast.

Holmes,

Sherlock Holmes was,

I suppose, our most famous detective,
but I'm sure you noticed on your visit

to our new file section of the yard
why he wouldn't even qualify these days.

No, no.

Our modern placement.

I was fish

and chips are great, but if sure, good.

What are you saying a special session?

Well, as you were only a couple of days

here, I expect you'd like to see
how we handle some of our larger cases.

I think I can lay that on for you.

As a matter of fact,
we had a very interesting case on.

That's Big Ben and it. Yes.

Or after every thing
that all it's only a little smoke.

Really?

We must put, in our opinion, the governor.

Yes, of course I got this,

I was Italian, so. All right.

Take this

there in the air in these tight

tie that.

Tightly.

Supposing you had a flat tire.

Of course, there's a guy, Harry

and I know we do this
deed, I'll do it for this purpose.

Cool acting.

Really?

Do we really have to do this

because we've been through
all that before, but it was character.

Really,

just get out there too early
and the police might still be there

to basically so that you can ride
in the back way, no one will notice you.

In the bicycle, but can you stop now?

Oh, besides

cannot do it.

They won't be any peace there, but
they haven't started doing anything to.

You have to wait for an expert to eye
is what we have done

without a good old faithful
partner that I knew will.

Aha! They are right.

Your bicycle is I had a flat of the road.

Obama's fixing as long as I borrow this
from his kid and came in the back way.

What we got here?

The books, I'm
going to post them to our no box

as we arrange
as I would, you say to me saying so.

But I'm rather concerned
about removing any more books.

Oh, nonsense.

Try to put it all in this together
aren't we can very well

tell you suitable wages
without the wherewithal I see.

And of course, it would make it look more
like a robbery wouldn't be how to use it.

But I have.

Mr Tanner.

Mr Tanner, where are you, sir?

I'm going to phone you from the house.

Yeah.

OK. Lieutenant.

Good news.

We found something pretty important.

You did, I know you one,

because I guess I couldn't believe
this stupid stuff in the newspaper.

No, some guys got in the car
that's in the nick of time.

Mr. O'Keefe, well,
we better be going to the airport,

but tell me something says here
the butler did it.

Chief Superintendent Derek,
does he really believe that Mr.

Tanner killed Sir Roger, panicked
and then killed himself?

There was some evidence.

I mean, about that

quite a little cache of Sir Rogers
best books, including the Irving

stashed away beneath the floorboards,
must be worth close to offer.

I know, but that's what the papers.

Guess what Doug really thinks.

There is not much to live with
today, I can tell you that.

You know, I keep thinking

to myself,
if I had stayed out of his hair,

if maybe I hadn't come up with my theory
and but it is

no blame.

Well, you've told us so himself
when he said Good bye.

It's all your fault and no clues.

And all we needed was one little one back
to where Sir Roger was that one night.

Well, as I always say to them, is this
a policeman's lot is not an happy one.

Yeah.

You know, I I've read this thing 100.

Didn't read that part.

That exhibit at the London Wax

Museum is opening this afternoon,
would you take me?

Now we got a call, Mr Dirk, asking me to.

Oh, and I want
to buy something an umbrella.

All those
three people, just lovely people.

My name is James Misano.

Mr Friend, perhaps you remember that
because of course,

we got our message
hurried over as quickly as we could.

Andrew Little via link.
They'll break down the door.

Oh yes, a bit.

But oh look, drapes and everything.

I said, Hi, John.

Yeah, I have a regular unveiling.

Yes, in a manner of speaking as I thought
it might be something like that

on the way over. I need some notes.

I'll be glad to say a few words. Oh,
thank you.

Thank you very much, sir.

Excuse me.

Hey, Jones. Yes.

We just arrived.

Gaza, he's beaten us to it.

But like little.

Where the devil is

Colombo?

For matter.

Why Mr.

Deck, it's stand up, Mr Frame.

Oh, Lieutenant, you're beginning
to look exactly like a lander that oh,

you mean this? No, no, no, ma'am. No,
I just bought this.

You see, ever since I've been in London,
I've been thinking and thinking,

what would be the best souvenir
to bring back to Los Angeles?

I thought,
you know, way back home by now. Right.

But I sort of miss the plane anyway.

It suddenly struck me an umbrella.

Mr Jones,
did someone ask you to invite us here?

What are those curtains doing there?

I thought we were going to get to see
an exhibit, Jones.

Oh yes. Yes, I'm dying to see it.

After all that silly business
we had modeling for it.

He was a.

Quite remarkable.

Yes, it is.

Do I really look like that?

Marvelous.

Let me tell you,
I don't want to repeat myself,

but the other night
when I saw that performance, that YouTube.

Can you please
explain what we're doing here?

Why don't you ask the tour guide?

Well, what about the other one?
Isn't Mr Havisham ready?

Oh yes. Yes, sure,
you want to see this too.

It's part of the exhibit.

Look at that boy, isn't that something?

Of course,
I didn't know the way you folks did.

I guess you were
closer to him than anybody.

Kind of shakes it, doesn't it?

You know, they have stuff

in the Chamber of Horrors here
that actually makes my skin crawl.

I know it's disgusting.

Putting them on display.

Oh listen, I know how you must feel.

And I sympathize with you.

But you know somebody's been murdered.

And you know what? They tell me?

They tell me folks around here.

They kind of enjoy that sort of thing.

You want to bet
they hang up a figure of Mr. Tanner.

To most people, Columbo
have frightful taste yourself included.

I don't have to excuse this
come along, really.

Not just yet, sir,
but if you think we're going to play

some sort of charade with this ridiculous
the frame, I'm always getting you angry.

I'm sorry about that.
It must be my accent or something.

But I wanted you here because I wanted you
to help me prove something.

I think I'll get rid of this.

I don't think

Mr Tannock killed
anybody like the newspapers are saying,

I think it was you.

Oh, Lieutenant,

guess what, I was beginning to like you.

This is going to sound silly,
but Sir Roger.

He was killed someplace else
and his body was moved later on,

and if I can only prove where it was that
he drove that night.

Prove who it was that he went to see, then

everything will start falling into place
and he did not come to see us.

How many times?

No, sir,
not to your dressing room in the theater?

It was two years.

That's where the umbrellas come in,

I guess umbrellas are the kind of thing
that I can understand.

You know, I've been watching people
to see what they do with umbrellas

when they come in out of the rain.

They close the umbrella

and give it a shake, guess?

And they find some place to lean it
against. But.

They never fastened this strap,
because then it won't dry properly.

Fascinating.

There's only one problem with that.

Sometimes things drop in.

Almost anything can drop in.

So I got to thinking

if maybe that's
what Sir Roger did with his umbrella

and something dropped into it.

That night.

Well, and maybe

got these things here somewhere.

Just give me a moment, would you?

Oh, forgive me.

Amazing likeness, isn't it?

When was I?

Oh, yes.

And then the other night, I stepped on
a pearl in your dressing room.

I have some more.

Just when I get, I got it from
your customers, she says she makes them.

Yes. Well, maybe

if the necklace was broken in a fight,
like you said, but

but that was Nikki and I.

Jones, bring us that umbrella, would you?

Oh, yes, yes.

Well, there's a chance,

a pretty good chance
that if the fight was with Sir Roger.

No, no, it wasn't.

Well, there's no point speculating, Mr
Jones, could we move back just a little?

Give the gentlemen room.

Professor Jones,
would you open the umbrella, sir?

Much the same,

exactly the same.

Well, so.

So, sir,

this.

Tomorrow

night

and tomorrow you stop it.

He put it this country's before we came.

Put it there.

And Jones, as anybody,
would you touch that umbrella?

No, sir.

I'll testify to that because then
he must have done it when we went looking

for a lighted pool.

He was mad.

Don't you see it?

I don't even know what it's doing.

I know he didn't.

It's a budget that was final.

I understand it wasn't fair.

I should.

Struts hours
to get his hour up in the Soviet Union.

Oh, you must try to understand.

Yes. Well, I think we can settle all this

at the yard Smythe will left
you take over.

Very good, sir.

And tomorrow.

And tomorrow.

Thank you, Mr.

Jones, and I believe you can replace
the umbrella and open your doors.

Anything for the arms to do.

It's been very interesting.

A bit of luck. Hmm.

How did you know that
bid was in there? Oh.

Yes, the odds,
the odds were very poor, and you know, it

can now you can do better
than that. Off the record.

Well, Mr Derrick, when you were

maybe in the third or fourth grade,
it was a pretty redheaded girl

in the front row
and you couldn't get her attention.

No, go on.

Just a little trick, I learned.

Hmm, hmm.

Excuse me, throat

mazing like this.

By Jeff.
