He asks for Sinatra to sign something for him: "You don't have to write out Lieutenant; you can put L-T-period." We learn about Columbo's in-laws, like Theresa, who worked as a hostess showing people to their stools at the Hoboken Orange Julius. Columbo also brings Frank a lasagna in a Teflon pan and instructs Ol' Blue Eyes on how to wash and return it. Speaking of Teflon, a pre-Presidential Ronald Reagan is on the panel as well. Oh, how we wish these were still around.
