In Episode 09, Patrick went to the murder scene and was desperately looking for the missing cigar end, when Columbo also showed up there. They found the cat, and, in the end, the cat helped Patrick.
In Episode 10, Lieutenant Columbo searches Clifford’s home and finds his suit covered with fibers. Then they have a meeting with Clifford’s lawyer, but when Columbo sees Clifford’s unfinished cigar, he loses all interest in the meeting.

1.Columbo tells Patrick, “We’d better get started.” We’d better is a contraction of “We had better”.
We use had better to refer to the present or the future, to talk about actions we think people should do or which are desirable in a specific situation. The verb form is always had, not have. We normally shorten it to ’d better in informal situations. It is followed by the infinitive without to:
It’s five o’clock. I’d better go now before the traffic gets too bad.
2. Clifford says, “Let’s get this show on the road.” This expression means to start doing something that you have planned, especially like a trip.
When Columbo and Clifford’s lawyer meet, they say, “How do you do?” This is a very formal way of saying, “It’s nice to meet you,” and is not actually a question. This expression is not commonly used nowadays.
