Favorite Scene of all: Joyce Van Patten, Sister of Mercy in Season 4, Episode 2 - Negative Reaction with Dick Van Dyke. As a nun, Van Patten mistakes Columbo for a homeless person in need of food, shelter, and yes.... a new coat. "Oh, that coat . . . that coat. We can do better than that!" In his attempt to politely refuse her assistance he identifies himself as a police officer. She then decides that he must be undercover. "Don't worry, Lieutenant, I won't tell anyone about your disguise!" Falk's expression is brilliant. I laughed in the '70's . . . and I look forward to laughing every time Negative Reaction is rerun.
