:11:02
Sorry, Lieutenant.
I was expecting an official car.
:11:05
Oh, that's all right.
:11:07
- Your name is Sanchez?
- Yes, sir.
:11:09
- I see.
- That's General Hollister's house.
:11:11
Anyone come in or out
since you've been here?
:11:14
Two young fellows in cadet uniforms
went in a little while ago.
:11:18
- That's their wagon over there.
- Uh-huh.
:11:20
- Is there another way out of the house?
- By water.
:11:23
The general's got a yacht at the back.
:11:25
I see. I'm gonna go in
and speak to the general.
:11:27
- While I'm doing that, you search the yacht.
- But Lieutenant, I don't have a warrant.
:11:33
I'll ask the general for permission.
If he doesn't give it, then I'll get a warrant.
:11:37
In the meantime, check it out.
:11:42
Listen, pay particular attention
to the engines.
:11:45
And if you find out anything, let me know.
:11:54

:12:11
- General Hollister?
- Yes?
:12:13
I'm from the police, sir.
My name is Columbo. Lieutenant Columbo.
:12:22
- Yes, Lieutenant?
- I'm sorry to disturb you, sir,
:12:25
but we have this report about this shooting.
:12:28
- A shooting?
- Yes, sir. In this house.
:12:34
That's quite an opening line, Lieutenant.
:12:37
Sir, I'm sure
it's just a crackpot complaint but I...
:12:40
- But it's your job to follow it up.
- Yes, sir.
:12:44
I've had to do many unpleasant things
myself in the line of duty.
:12:48
But may I ask, this alleged shooting,
:12:52
just who is supposed to have shot whom?
:12:54
Well, you see, sir, we don't know exactly.
:12:57
Only that the victim
was wearing some kind of a uniform.
