'1-L-10, MPs have been notified.'

(Whistles)
:55:28
Mornin'!
:55:37
Lieutenant Columbo,
you turn up at the oddest times.
:55:41
Listen, I hope you don't mind
my comin' in that way,
:55:44
but the door was open and I let myself in.
:55:46
No. Did you get here by magic carpet?
I didn't see your car.
:55:50
I pulled around back
and I put it in the shade.
:55:53
- The sun raises hell with the paint.
- Sensible.
:55:56
What brings you up here to the wilds?
:55:58
I heard you and Mrs Ferris
talk so much about this place
:56:01
and you made it sound so terrific,
:56:04
and believe me, you weren't exaggerating,
:56:06
because this is magnificent.
:56:09
And since I got a two-week vacation
comin' up,
:56:13
I said to myself, "Go on down there,
check out the area, look to see."
:56:18
"Maybe you can rent a cabin."
:56:21
You're not gonna tell me
you drove down here
:56:23
just to look for a vacation spot, are you?
:56:26
Why else would I come?
:56:28
You're wasting your time.
:56:30
I have a feeling that cabins in this neck
of the woods are out of your price range.
:56:35
Most of them are rented for the season.
:56:37
Oh, gee whizz. That's too bad.
:56:42
Gosh, my wife is gonna be disappointed.
:56:45
- Well, it was a nice ride, anyhow.
- Yes, a lovely drive.
:56:49
Except for that bottleneck down the road.
What was that all about?
:56:52
- Oh, there was a drowning.
- What was it? A fisherman?
:56:56
I heard someone say it was a local woman.
:56:58
- A Miss La Sanka or something?
- Something like that, yeah.
