Two arrogant college students devise a cunning method to murder their criminology professor during a guest lecturer class. The guest lecturer happens to be none other than Lt. Columbo himself.

Two college students who believe that their wealth and status allow them to do what they want, but one of them has been placed on notice by his father that if he messes up, he's on his own. And when they cheat in one of their classes, their professor discovers what they did. He tells them that he will either flunk them or have them expelled; that's when they decide to kill him. They decide to do it during their next class, where Columbo is a guest lecturer. And they do it despite being in the class when it happened. Columbo investigates and the two guys give him a lot of "help".—[email protected]

Justin and Cooper are two arrogant, lazy well-to-do students who only think about partying, sex and having a good time. They are caught cheating on a test in their class by Professor Rusk, who threatens to fail or have them expelled. With their futures about to be in ruins they decide to murder Professor Rusk, and make it look like a scorned rival did it, since he was a serial philander and had a lot of enemies. Justin and Cooper underestimate Colombo, who figures out that they are the murderers for two reasons: First, they keep showing up at places where he is investigating, and second they begin injecting false clues in order to leave him down the wrong road. Colombo is not fooled or swayed by the evidence and doggingly pursues the Cooper and Justin, who believe that they have committed to the perfect murder.—charmardee-smith
