- The handsome, charming junior partner in a dental group run by his father-in-law is a bad husband and a bad gambler deeply in debt. Facing divorce, ostracism and worse, he devises a cunning plan.
- A dentist is threatened by a divorce, because his wife loves another man, and his father-in-law, who wants to collect his gambling debts. He decides to kill his wife's lover, and frame his wife for it, to get out of the situation. Columbo tries to solve the murder.—Maarten Hofman <jen@cistron.nl>
- Dr. Wesley Corman is a dentist-to-the-stars. He is also a compulsive gambler and not a very good businessman, and he has been getting financial support from his wife Lydia and her father Dr. Horace Sherwin for years. Now Dr. Sherwin has had enough and tells Dr. Corman that in exchange for forgetting all of his debts, he wants him out of his office and his practice. And he is encouraging Lydia to dump him and she appears to be willing. Dr. Corman then tries to convince his wife to help him with her father but Lydia reveals that there is someone else. Dr. Corman pretends not to want to know who he is but in reality knows who Lydia is seeing: a Hollywood heartthrob named Adam Evans. When Evans comes under Dr. Corman's care, Dr. Corman kills him by putting a time-release digitalis-based poison under a dental crown, one that takes effect just as Evans is getting intimate with Lydia that evening, thereby framing her for the murder. Corman's efforts to cover up her "crime" and attempts to push her father to commit her, which he has done before make Columbo suspect that something's wrong with his attitude.—<rcs0411@yahoo.com>
