:44:01
May I help you, sir?
:44:05
Well, I'm not a customer.
:44:08
No, I assumed that.
You're looking for someone?
:44:11
Yes, I was looking for a Beth Chadwick.
:44:14
Miss Chadwick?
My name's Lieutenant Columbo.
:44:17
- The police?
- Well, it's not serious.
:44:20
I just want to talk to her for a moment.
:44:23
Through that door, Lieutenant. Cubicle four.
:44:26
- Thank you.
- Lieutenant?
:44:28
- Your cigar.
- What about it?
:44:31
Uh... Well, the fragrance is not...
compatible.
:44:37
That's a shame. I just lit it.
:45:11
Well, what brings you here, Lieutenant?
:45:14
Oh, I stopped by the house.
:45:16
I talked to Charles, he told me where
you'd be so I thought I'd come by.
:45:20
There's just one point
that I wanted to clear up.
:45:24
- Do you mind?
- I'm a captive audience!
:45:27
- We can go.
- No, that's all right. Go ahead and finish.
:45:30
Saw your new car, by the way.
Oh, that's some automobile.
:45:34
- Thank you.
- Really beautiful.
:45:37
Do you have to order
those things weeks in advance?
:45:40
- Yes.
- That's what I thought.
:45:42
Real change of pace for you, isn't it?
:45:44
I felt like something racy.
As they say in advertising, a new image.
:45:48
Yeah. Well, I can understand that. I'm sorry.
:45:52
Because it's a natural thing,
:45:55
I think, after a death in the family
to want to break loose.
:45:59
That's one way of putting it.
