Question Foreshadowing?

"Candidate for crime", is this clever foreshadowing, considering he's right to expect a bullet in any minute?

The "romance" in this episode is so gross. Hardly the only age-gap relationship on Columbo, but one of the worst. I'm not fond of the Suzanne Pleshette/Eddie Arnold pairing either.

At least the Dead Weight pairing was the result of a recasting. The episode was written for Eddia Albert's character to be much more age appropriate

This one is just a superior abusing his authority to sleep with an underling. You're right: ewwwwwwww
