      Honestly, Columbo wouldn’t do such a thing. Even having been face to face with someone who had every intent of off’ing his wife and then him, he still understands that the slap to his face was driven by an emotional overload from being played like a cheap fiddle
      Columbo didn’t even make a hint of attempted murder on his life in another episode with the Dobermans that were trained to attack with a kill command… even though the attempt on his life was genuine with Laurel and Hardy, he knew that he wasn’t in harms way due to them being reprogrammed to give dog smooches rather than mauling
      ~SHOULD~ he tack on extra charges for attempted murder by dog attack or for assaulting a police officer for being slapped? Probably for the dogs but I’d say only maybe for the slap
      Columbo is too decent a man to kick her while she’s down and 100% going to jail for murder and 2 counts of attempted murder; the slap wouldn’t even register on the charge sheet compared to the other charges

    It's sad how delusional she is that she thinks he would just blindly accept a jar from a woman who is a suspect in a current murder he's investigating. She is also the widow of a man he put behind bars for murder. The same husband died behind bars and he knows that she was seeing a doctor for her mental well-being. Of course, he's gonna turn around and take it to the boys down at the lab.

      I like the window on the 70s that some of these provide. Good eg is the ransom for a dead man, featuring Lee Grant, where Colombo asked “how do you do it. Work for a woman.?
      Columbo’s pretty enlightened but it’s interesting how abnormal this situation seemed to screenwriters at the time😂
      And there’s a pretty unsavoury episode the “nightlife” one where the perp is clearly in a very abusive relationship, accidentally kills her partner and gets no allowances at all from the system. And this one was early 90s!
      However on the whole falk’s genius shines through in _every_ episode that’s why I love it.

    Poisoning has been a woman's choice of murdering going back to the 19th century and before. They were not strong enough to kill a man outright using brute force, but they could slip poison into his food. Columbo already knew or at least strongly suspected she intended to kill himself and his wife, so he had the marmalade tested for poison at the police lab as soon as she gave it to him. So she basically incriminated herself, even if she had never spoken a single word to Columbo.

    I recognised the lady who played Vivian immediately from a few other movies, including Tremors 2, but also as the voice of littlefoot's mother in the Land before Time.
    She was a good choice for the role.

    What’s the name of the actor playing the doctor that Columbo is having dinner with?
    I remember seeing that dude all over tv shows in the 70s. That guy was everywhere! Almost as much as that little blonde boy with the glasses that always guest starred as a smart nerd on tv shows in that same time period.

      Also played the wagon-master/cook, in "The Cowboys", with John Wayne. Kind of a James Earl Jones "lite", as pertaining to speech-pattern smoothness. Smooth as Mr. Jones sounded--but not quite as "Darth-Vaderish", lol! Mr. Browne had that softer, "whiskey-ish" tone instead, or at least I thought so?
