:58:00
Now, I've been studying the tides, General.
:58:03
The Coast and Geodetic Survey's
got a book on 'em
:58:06
and it shows that a body dumped
off the marina in the ocean
:58:10
might carry down to Marago Cove.
:58:12
Might, Lieutenant. Might.
:58:17
Sheer speculation!
:58:19
Lieutenant, you should tell your colleagues
:58:24
that they have yet to show any link
between Colonel Dutton and myself,
:58:28
something that would prove
that we actually met on that day.
:58:33
Yes, sir, you're right there.
:58:36
But now that you mention it, it occurs to me
the night the colonel disappeared,
:58:41
I did see a car like his
across the street from your house.
:58:45
I don't know what kind
of a car the colonel drove
:58:48
but there must be thousands
of them in Southern California.
:58:52
You didn't, by any chance,
:58:56
check the registration at the time?
:58:58
Er... no, sir. No, sir, I didn't.
:59:03
- There was no reason to.
- Now, that was unfortunate, wasn't it?
:59:28
General, if you don't mind,
I'd like to go back now.
:59:33
As you wish. I guess
we're about through with this test run.
:59:48
You know, Lieutenant,
I don't see how a man...
:59:54
with the name of Columbo...
:59:57
Shouldn't he be more at home on a boat?
