Ransom for a Dead Man -- Cut?

Hi all...

I just got the 1st season Columbo set on DVD. Watching "Ransom For A Dead Man", it seemed as if there were a few cuts (especially in the scene where Columbo searches the locker room, which has a couple of jarring jumps). Can anyone confirm if this is a "cut" version of the film that's been released on DVD? And have any of the other DVD episodes been cut?

Maybe there were a few cuts from the original print, but the version I have on DVD is the same one I had on VHS tape from the Columbia House library.

I did not notice any cuts.
