Ah Ha!, just noticed, in this episode when the three of them (Columbo, Roger and Everett) are arriving at the Tram at the end, Columbo has the Top down. Just like in the strange scene in Last Salute to the Commodore. My point is, later in the series Columbo says "you know, I've never had the top down"... anyone know what episode that was?
There's one thing it took me forever to realize. Out of all those schemes of his, Roger must have enjo*** framing Quincy as a blackmailer in a special way. After all, Quincy was helping to blackmail HIM. So to Roger, that must have really felt like justice.
