Curiosidades
The Playland Arcade scenes were filmed at the Santa Monica, California Looff Hippodrome. This location also was used as the carousel where Henry Gondorff (Paul Newman's character in El golpe (1973)) lived and worked. In The Sting, the carousel was located in Chicago.

Pifias
The image of Columbo's car sitting in the parking lot can be seen reflected in the glass of the CNC building as Kay enters it before she commits the murder.

Citas
Columbo: [entering Kay's office] That's a very impressive desk, Ma'am. You can run the world from a desk like that.
Kay Freestone: The world doesn't count - just the West coast.

Good...but a bit padded.

Kay (Trish Van Devere) is the personal assistant for a network programmer. When she learns he's getting a promotion, she's shocked to learn that he is NOT giving her his old position. So, she's apparently been sleeping with the guy but for nothing! However, she is NOT a woman to be trifled with and she comes up with a plan to murder him and get away with it. Can she do this and still manage to defeat Columbo?!

This is a decent episode (though my wife disliked it quite a bit) but it was heavily padded. For example, in one worthless scene, Columbo is staring at some computerized graphics...and it went on and on and on. Unnecessary and evidence that there just wasn't enough plot. It's a shame they didn't make the show 10-15 minutes shorter....it would have improved it.

By the way, if you DO watch the episode I'd love to know your opinion, as in some ways I think they were vaguely hinting at Kay having a lesbian relationship.
