:51:03
That's absolutely true.
:51:05
I'll go even further. That's what
does most criminals in, eventually.

:51:11
Then isn't it safe to assume
:51:13
that they would open the bag
to see if the money was there?

:51:17
And then, after they saw it,
:51:19
out of fear or panic, take the money
out of the bag and run.

:51:23
That's probably right. That's probably right.
I'm sure... it's right.

:51:27
I don't mean to defend my point
about the bag,

:51:30
I was just using that
to show you the kind of person I am.

:51:34
You understand? How details bother me.
:51:37
In other words, I'm trying to show you
a whachamacallit of mine.

:51:41
- Idiosyncrasy.
- Right. Idiosyncrasy.

:51:46
- Gee, that's a... That's a good word.
- One of the best.

:51:54
- Anything else?
- Er, no.

:51:57
No, I guess that's it.
:52:03
Listen, I wanna thank you
for taking the time to talk to me,

:52:07
I really appreciate that.
:52:09
Helped straighten things out in my mind.
:52:11
- Any time, Lieutenant.
- Thank you again.

:52:15
- Something else?
- What's the matter with me?

:52:18
- One other thing. The angle of the bullet.
- What about it?

:52:22
The bullet entered your husband's body
at a 45-degree angle.

:52:27
- What's the significance in that?
- That means he was standing.

:52:31
And... See the way you're standing?
:52:35
Leslie, I thought...
:52:36
(Columbo, echoing)
Just the way you're standing.

:52:40
The killer was sitting,
just the way I am. And from this position...

:52:47
the killer shot him.
:52:53
I'm sorry.
:52:55
(Sighs deeply) Would you, er...
:52:59
A little water, on the table.
