Los Angeles rave promoter Justin Price (Matthew Rhys) helps his girlfriend Vanessa (Jennifer Sky) get rid of the corpse of her ex-husband, mobster Tony Galper, who was backing Price's new club, after he drops dead in Vanessa's apartment. He disposes of the body for her but unknown to him, tabloid photographer Linwood Coben secretly photographs him getting rid of the body. He tells Price he can have the negatives and prints for $250,000 and Price agrees to pay him. They meet that evening but Price instead kills him and makes it look like a suicide.
Final clue/twist: Columbo points out that one of the fish tanks built into the dance floor at Price's club contains fewer fish and is smaller than the other tanks. Columbo has the floor scanned – revealing Tony's body hidden under the fish tank. After Justin and Vanessa are arrested, Columbo walks out of the club.".
