Columbo season 5 episode 6, titled "Last Salute to the Commodore," follows the story of a wealthy yacht club owner and philanthropist, named Riley Greenleaf, who is found dead in his private boathouse. Initially, it seems like a suicide, given Greenleaf's financial troubles. However, things take a different turn when Columbo arrives at the scene and finds several suspicious elements associated with the death.

As the investigation takes its course, several people come under suspicion - including Greenleaf's son in law, Dr. Barry Mayfield, and business associate, Hugh Caldwell. Columbo's attention is also drawn to a mysterious woman, identified as Mrs. Peck, who is frequently seen around Greenleaf and may have played a role in his death.

Meanwhile, a cast of colorful characters, including the boathouse caretaker and Greenleaf's loyal friends from the yacht club, add a touch of humor and drama to the episode. In typical Columbo fashion, there are plenty of red herrings and false leads, as the detective tries to put the pieces of the puzzle together.

As the case progresses, Columbo uncovers various motives for Greenleaf's murder, including greed, jealousy, and revenge. But the twists and turns don't stop there, as the true culprit is finally unveiled in a satisfying conclusion that will keep viewers guessing until the end.

Overall, "Last Salute to the Commodore" is a classic Columbo episode that showcases Peter Falk's iconic performance as the rumpled detective. With its intricate plot, strong cast of characters, and cleverly executed clues, it is an excellent addition to the series that will keep fans of the show engaged from start to finish.
