Viveca Scott (Vera Miles) is the leader of a failing cosmetics giant. To keep her company afloat, she is willing to do pretty much anything...including murder! After bashing a chemist over the head with a microscope, she's not finished with her villainy....and it's up to Columbo to stop her.
The show had some interesting actors, such as Vincent Price and Martin Sheen. And, I like the way that the cosmetics industry is portrayed....cut-throat and vicious. But what I did NOT like was the show's finale, as Columbo clearly did NOT have enough evidence to arrest, let alone convict, the killer. It really left the viewer annoyed...which is a shame as it was an otherwise good installment.
