#Youtube columbo undercover series

Robert Culp returns to the series, playing Justin's powerful lawyer father. Because only the two students could know which car it was, they implicated themselves as the only ones who could have planted it, and in so doing, as the murderers as well. Rowe and Redman plant the murder weapon in that vehicle, but after it is found, Colombo reveals it is actually his wife's car. With an airtight alibi, the boys then plant evidence to make it look like the professor was killed because of a Mafia exposé he was working on.įinal clue/twist: Columbo tricks the murderous duo by letting them 'overhear' details of a car owned by a suspect. While sitting at the lecture, they monitor the parking garage using a miniature TV camera and shoot Rusk by his car with a remote-controlled gun, both devices being hidden in their pickup truck's engine compartment. They fake a message to lure him away from the university just when Columbo will be giving a guest lecture to his class. In a variation of Leopold and Loeb, the two students decide to kill Rusk. Rusk threatens to expel spoiled fraternity brothers Justin Rowe ( Stephen Caffrey) and Cooper Redman ( Gary Hershberger) for cheating by stealing the final exam. Stephen Caffrey as Justin Rowe and Gary Hershberger as Cooper RedmanĬriminology professor D.E. Two of the episodes, 'No Time to Die' and 'Undercover', were based on 87th Precinct novels by Ed McBain and thus do not follow the usual Columbo format.

These episodes have since been released on DVD in several regions as 'season 10'.
