The guy in the raincoat is naked underneath and he flashes his body at women. She's Jewish and the Jews were renowned for being tailors, you know, making clothes etc.. He flashes by opening the raincoat and instead of being shocked by his naked body she feels the garment and says "You call this lining" referring to the lining inside the raincoat. .............. hope that helps jeeeeeez!!!
I'm not a native English speaker and I just don't understand it. I'm a fan of Columbo though, and a curious person in general, so please explain the joke, somebody? :D
The episodes with mcGoohan were amongst the best they did

…just one more thing! Peter Falk & Columbo was one of the best! I think one of Peter Falk's favorite actors to play a villain was Patrick McGoohan.

I thought he said "Hiney" like back side...only the guys open the coat from the front...lining makes more sense I guess

I was always a little confused by the meaning of the joke. I think the reaction by Patrick McGoohan was really exagerated.
