This is my favorite Columbo episode.
Columbo is investigating a murder surrounded by geniuses with there own theories.
Pay close attention to the ending in which the climax is as well orchestrated as the musical score it is surrounded in.
To top it off Mr. Bikel utters one of the best anti-climactic lines in film. After his much younger wife calls him immediately after his confession feeling needy for her oft rejected husband she tells him to come home "I need you." To which he replies "Alas my dear. I won't be needing you." Great acting, great direction, great fun!
