Good luck and good fun, every one of you Columbo-ish-ous people, you!
Ok I think I have a few more....#33..is C. "Leslie, I thought..."....and then lovely Leslie pulls the trigger!!
And #37 is C. "After you, sir."...at which point the 'wonderful' Mr. Frame shoves poor Tanner through the door...........and somehow hangs him???????? How did he do that??????????????
Just one more and then I will step aside....these quotes are like eating potato chips...I can't stop!!!!
I think #34 is D. Darling....not positive here...just a guess....it is said on the tape machine....
I think I know a few of these, without actually "knowing" them, if you know what I mean... . First up I was going to say the same as Cassa for Bertie. I have guessed Bye Bye Sky High for about 4 of these so far, so I thought I should make a guess when it actually comes along, and I was going to guess the same as Cassa.
In 33, I am going to guess differently, I thought the quote was "I didn't..." Just a guess though.
In 38, I think D is correct...just another guess though.
Ok, I am really stabbing in the dark here so I will step aside and leave it to David and Laura
Wow, nice job already...you all are quick! Okay, here are my answers, but I'm afraid there will be a lot more guessing here than mopping...
For #33, I agree with you, Cassa, that Paul Williams says "Leslie, I thought..."
#38 Habib says "I never dreamed I'd be involved in matters of such significance."
#31 is Mark McAndrews in "Make Me a Perfect Murder," asking if they finished showing the film to the bigwigs downstairs.
#34 I thought he said "bye," but I am probably wrong.
#36 This is also a total guess, but is this Jim Ferris assuring his wife that this will be the last time he will stay at the office to work late, since he is finishing the book?
#39 could be Sharon Martin arranging the meeting at 8am at the medical supply company, and Jean in "Requiem for a Falling Star" giving her fake plans for the evening to Nora Chandler when she is given the list of errands?
#32 sounds like Rosanna Wells talking to the poor sappish band guy who gets framed for her murder. I'm not sure which is the real quote, but D sounds the meanest, so it is probably that one.
I'm going crazy over the "yes...yes...yes" one (it sounds a little naughty).
And as far as the end of this.....I am sure Headache is in his cave..and he is contriving another puzzle for us.......
Hey Headache...if you aren't...it's ok...you must be exhausted from all of this....you put in a lot of work....but we Columboites appreciate all that you do. Me and laura are your groupies!!!!!!!!!!!!
