I had remembered being more impressed with this the first time I saw it. Watching it again I can honestly say it's one of the weaker ones. The whole ruse is not that impressive and the investigation is not that interesting.

Procedurally this is a good episode with a strong buildup and a fitting final conclusion. Everything fits together nicely. My only gripe, which I can't blame the show from the 70s for not knowing, is that ballistic forensics is complete bunk, as most forensic "sciences" are. But one can respect the intent of this episode, depicting Columbo opening up to new methods and technology.

Didn't think Milland's baddie was very strong
