Jack Cassidy is a delight in this episode. One of the best ever Columbo episodes. My all time favourite and I have seen them all. Jack really blew it early on with the handcuff escape. His ego wouldn't allow him to fail but by escaping them he gave Columbo the green light. What a shame Cassidy was taken at 49 years of age with decades of his acting genius to come. But it went up in smoke. Like one of the Great Santini's tricks in this marvellous epitaph to his talent.
