Acting
Columbo is a friendly, verbose, disheveled-looking police detective who is consistently underestimated by his suspects. Despite his unprepossessing appearance and apparent absentmindedness, he shrewdly solves all of his cases and secures all evidence needed for indictment. His formidable eye for detail and meticulously dedicated approach often become clear to the killer only late in the storyline.
Two young men from North Dakota, Kip and Job are shown their "Alternate lives" as an escape from what they called, "Minot-ony." Their journey begins when they visit Van Hook (arm), a part of nearby Lake Sakagawea. While at Van Hook they meet Andrew, a Native American man who tells the young men, "Sometimes the circle of life gets twisted." When they return to their small town, they find themselves wanted for a murder they didn't commit.
