Jamie Rose: Nancy Brower

Quotes 

• Columbo : Well, the bad news, ma'am, is that Mr. Lamarr here is going to be arrested for the murder of your husband.

  Nancy Brower : Oh, my God. Leon, how could you?

  Leon Lamarr : Ha!

  Nancy Brower : And what's the good news?

  Columbo : That you've just inherited the better part of $24 million after taxes. It wasn't Mr. Lamarr who won the lottery, it was your late husband.

  Nancy Brower : [pretending surprise]  What?

  Columbo : And even though you were in the process of getting a divorce, you were still legally married at the time of the drawing.

  Nancy Brower : I get the money?

  Columbo : All of it. All of those millions.

  Leon Lamarr : It'll be a cold day in hell.

  Nancy Brower : Leon!

  Leon Lamarr : You lying, treacherous bitch, you sold ol' Leon out, didn't you? You want to see some cooperation? Girl, I'm gonna show you some cooperation.

  [to Columbo] 

  Leon Lamarr : Who do you think it was pretending to be Freddie calling me from the studio that night?

  [with Nancy ranting and raving, and with Leon chuckling] 

  Columbo : That's it.

  [to another officer] 

  Columbo : All right, book 'em. Both of 'em.

• Nancy Brower : I hate you as much as your wife's going to hate you, that's how much I hate you!
