Unbelievable. Here the wife thought that she was giving her husband proof of innocence when instead she was handing over the smoking gun… God I love the writing in this show
I think they were inspired by that Columbo episode wherein the suspect has a ticket with a camera photo as a last minute alibi, but it serves to incriminate him and his conspirator, because the lighting/shadows on his face are off compared to the other people (his coconspirator was wearing a mask of the suspect's face to give him an alibi). Monk took "inspiration" from several Columbo episodes.
@@deathsheir2035 In monk series a lot of murders happens because there is no understanding or forgiveness between the public and persons. Make a mistake and you know you are ruined forever. A bit understandable that the murders make the wrong desision.
Agreed. However, I thought I heard the wife call her husband John at 0:32 even though his name is Tom Donovan and she later refers to him as Monk. With a show like Monk, you're almost trained to pick up on the little details and sometimes small continuity errors actually enhance the experience.
This is one of the funniest episodes, I remember Randy trying to convince monk and then later singing along in the room "Father Please Forgive me" without his shirt on. I cracked up so bad at that time. Ah! Memories.
4:00 I love the silent acting while Monk is talking. Leland immediately cathes on to what Monk is getting at and takes the picture back to confirm it for himself. Natalie dosen't get it yet and gestures confused to Leland who then shows her the picture, then she gets it.
Man really killed a chick, who trusted him enough to talk to him about her tragic cult past, just to hide an affair? A detail I like is not long after Monk mentions the seatbelt, you can see Stottlemeyer connect the dots even while the lady behind him was still catching up. That’s a man who is accustom to Monk’s “a-ha” moments. EDIT: The heartbroken look on the wife’s face as she looks at that seatbelt. Jesus, she’s got it rough. In one go, she found out her husband was cheating, murdered a chick, tried to frame an innocent man and paint himself as a hero all while she was passionately supporting him.
The majority of Monk' s case are came from affairs even his own wife death. Monk' s writers probably tired of coming with motives and put affairs as the cause of everything.
@@Account.for.Comment affairs usually are the reasons many people kill, robberies as well. It is normal and realistic. Instead of weird deaths that never happen in other shows.
There's a lot of Monk bad guys who jump to murder and calculate elaborate means/coverups for doing so literally the moment they realize they have an opportunity to, and there's barely any sympathetic ones (offhand, the only ones I can think of offhand are the culprits in Red Headed Stranger and in Mr. Monk Adopts A Dog - and the latter only kind of). Several of the villains are pretty scary when you think about it.
@@TheRealCodeBlack TBF, that's mostly because Monk only gets brought in for the really hard cases. I assume all of the sympathetic cases are easily solved by the police without Monk off screen, since they weren't psychopaths who knew how to instantly cover their tracks and set up fake alibis.
I don’t understand why he went to such extremes…I mean couldn’t he have intercepted the ticket before his wife saw the picture? Or maybe if his wife saw it why couldn’t he just say the girl looked like she was in trouble and needed a ride?
Yeah but how would the wife have known the woman was a prostitute? I mean if it was just a woman in a car he could’ve tried passing her off as a hitchhiker 🤷♀️
@@Quintingent Well, if she was still "alive" like he was claiming, putting a seat beat on would ensure no further damage is dealt. Though already being dead, of course he didn't think of the seatbeat. Another reason: to keep the body from flopping over onto the driver, while in the middle of driving...
" The cult leader was suspected of the cult was suspected murder of a cult ex-member, but Monk explains what actually happened. " this is a chaotic description i must say
@@blusafe1 Maybe because at that point she discovered he was morally very much in the wrong? Or she didn't want to become an accessory after the fact, if you don't feel like imputing moral aptitude to her?
This episode has the best line in the whole series "the oldest profession in the world... ah... stonemason". Can you please upload that scene please please
That would be terrible...as all reboots are, so something big would have to be different and it may be so big no one would like it. I'm happy with reruns. You should always leave them wanting more, not wanting no more
The humor came from his condition but the happy finale to the show showed his condition becoming more manageable. So it would have to be change the core of the show and that wouldn't be great
I don't know if anybody else remembers, but Tony Shahloub also played in another series "Wings" as Anthony, an Italian cabdriver, on the isle of Nantucket. If you've never seen it, you should, it is excellent.
That's right! He was in Wings. Another great show. Even though he had a smaller part Tony Shalhoub was pretty good in both Galaxy Quest and the first MIB. Awesome actor!!
Well, John Ross Bowie does have a slight speech impediment, a sibilance, but he has learned to control it, especially in rehearsed speech. Conversely, he exaggerates a derhotacization for comedic effect when playing Barry Kripke; he patterned it on the speech of the Bugs Bunny character Elmer Fudd.
It was like the channel knew that I wanted this scene, I just searched monk cult case on UA-cam as I found that there are Monk clips there and watched some before. 😂😂😂
I know right if the killer would have put the seatbelt on after he killed her to make it look like he's helping her to the hospital after he lied about stabbing her he would have gotten away with the murder
I have watched every episode of Monk twice or more. I am rewatching this for my 2nd or 3rd time. I love Monk! I'm trying to be like him, but you can't be perfect.
and there is other evidence besides the lack of blood on the seat belt. Such as which camera and which intersection, timestamp on the ticket, which hospital, snd hospital arrival time.
Hello there! How can I reach you as I have a video of Monk which i have edited, its about tommy and him. I really want to share it with your channel, I mean you can have a look at it and tell me whether its good or not.
This is one of the weirder continuity problems I have seen with filming. Right at the start of the video, the husband gets up from his chair and then the camera shows a view from behind him and the head rest of the chair is missing. Why would anyone remove the head rest from a chair between filming? It doesn't make any sense.
So maybe it wasn't Father's Ralph Roberts, that doesn’t mean Tom was involved. No, but Tom's testimony places Roberts at the scene, and we know he couldn’t have been there.
Each time Monk solves a case he leaves me mesmerized. Good thing I downloaded the entire show, I am rewatching every episode (except for the many goofy parts).
This is a much better comment than the one a little upstream that phrased it "risked a murder conviction to avoid his wife finding out about his tryst... I understand". o_0

Honestly, the wife saved herself trying yo save h, by having full confidence in him, just tasty justice
"She was crying at the gas station and I offered to drive her home"
There! That was so much easier than planning a murder in a public park
He must have thought his wife wouldn’t consider that a decent excuse to run a red light.
And almost as easy as not cheating on your wife
OR, he could have gone and paid the ticket before they mailed it...
@@brentfarvors192 Problem: The ticket is still sent, regardless if you pay it before receiving it.

Not long after this he skipped bail, changed his name, started faking a speech impediment, and now works as a physicist at Cal Tech.
I've been waiting for this comment to pop up!
Yaa kripkie was evil from the beginning
sigh.... you beat me to it.
He changed his name to Bawwy Kwipke.
I did not git what you meant by that until I saw in another comment who he was. 😂😂😂😂
Did not recognize him.
The way Monk explains how it went and leaves the culprit speachless is so satisfying to watch. ^^
The culprit is actually going to need 2 lawyers. Murder...and divorce

Monk is like the only TV detective that doesn't leave fingerprints on the evidence.
Always like that detail
This is one of the funniest episodes, I remember Randy trying to convince monk and then later singing along in the room "Father Please Forgive me" without his shirt on. I cracked up so bad at that time. Ah! Memories.
Dr. Kroger :”please somebody watch Randy”
In that scene, I also remember Randy was Jacked
What I feel bad about Mrs. Donovan is about her husband was cheating on her now arrested for his lover’s murder!
Even funnier is when Randy says: "I have to go to the bank..."
They just posted that clip yesterday.
4:00
I love the silent acting while Monk is talking.
Leland immediately cathes on to what Monk is getting at and takes the picture back to confirm it for himself.

Sheldon will be happy that kripke is going to jail 😂
And that he IS faking his speech impediment.
which Sheldon? Jim Parsons, or the young version?

I missread the title as "monk solves a case. A cult case" which justs kinda funny to me. Idk
Monk solves a case, a Cult case. A Cult case with cars, and cars drive Monk crazy.
If the killer had only put a seatbelt on the victim, that would have been harder for Monk to solve.
Of course he didn't think to put a seatbelt on her - after all, what would it protect her from? She was already dead!
That would be awkward. Pulling it out and going, "Give us a minute."

And then helped send him to jail for fraud!

Always buckle up ... unless you're committing a murder.
Captain catching on quickly after the mention of the seatbelt is the best part.
The space between "Solves" and "a" seems to be double spaced. Please correct it before Mr. Monk finds out.
It was apparently corrected.
Mr. Monk found out, though.
I thought Kripke's speech impediment was real...!
Well, John Ross Bowie does have a slight speech impediment, a sibilance, but he has learned to control it, especially in rehearsed speech. Conversely, he exaggerates a derhotacization for comedic effect when playing Barry Kripke; he patterned it on the speech of the Bugs Bunny character Elmer Fudd.

“Father please protect me!” 😂😂
"Father, please correct me"
😂😂😂😂 I was cracking up when randy started singing it with monk !!
I like how for the brief moment they show the seatbelt you can see the realization on the wifes face as she realizes he's guilty.
I still can't believe that the captain is Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs.
Me too. Ted Levine was also the voice of 'Rusty Nail' the murderous trucker in Joy Ride.
Best clip yet. Thank you for finally showing me the whole solve lol
Kripke tried to frame Howwy Mandel.
Mr. Monk, excellent aus usual. As always!
Esta serie es excelente , es una lástima que no se pasa en español...
0:15 Kripke? Is that you?
That must have been a family cult if their leader is the father of all the members
Wish they upload full episodes 😢
This murder was dark and cold
i swear to god, there no hella way a regular detective would have picked that seat belt out to be a key evidence
I know right if the killer would have put the seatbelt on after he killed her to make it look like he's helping her to the hospital after he lied about stabbing her he would have gotten away with the murder
I have watched every episode of Monk twice or more. I am rewatching this for my 2nd or 3rd time.
I love Monk! I'm trying to be like him, but you can't be perfect.
Barry Kripki lost his lisp!
Isn't that guy from 'Big Bang Theory"...They one with a heavy lisp that's almost as smart as Sheldon?
Oh, I know him. That's Barry Kripke.
Looks like a great show!!
Wow.. Monk was a good show. My ma used to watch it
and there is other evidence besides the lack of blood on the seat belt. Such as which camera and which intersection, timestamp on the ticket, which hospital, snd hospital arrival time.
Only knew John Ross Bowie from Tabletop. Neato.
Kripke from Big Bang Theory

Hello there! How can I reach you as I have a video of Monk which i have edited, its about tommy and him. I really want to share it with your channel, I mean you can have a look at it and tell me whether its good or not.
I always expect to hear Kripke and his lisp.
Natalie is so not needed, Sharona was the heart of this show.
Amen! 👍
Natalie was better. Agree to disagree
Scissors cuts paper, paper covers rock, rock crushes lizard, lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes scissors, scissors decapitates lizard, lizard eats paper, paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes rock, rock crushes scissor, Kripke stabs prostitute
If I ever commit a crime, Please don't involve MONK! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 He could tell which flea bit the dog, and where!
Now I am curious what Monk knows about the variety of prostitutes or does he literally categorize them for their different services? lol
That description would drive Monk up a wall.
oh my good kwipkeee.. I didn't realized he was in Monk..
1:11 I wish Natalie him finish and not interrupt him. He was almost done.
Why not the complete episode?
This is one of the weirder continuity problems I have seen with filming.

4:37 - I love the bad guy's duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur face xD
What is worse? Dealing with Monk or dealing with Sheldon Cooper?
I loved that series...
This is ONE reason why I don't get cults!
Buffalo Bill started grinning when Adrian pointed out the seat belt. He's thinking, "Rookie mistake."
Looks like Sheldon's long arms caught up with Kripke.
I knew something was wrong when he started speaking perfectly.
But it’s the same actor not character
So maybe it wasn't Father's Ralph Roberts, that doesn’t mean Tom was involved.
No, but Tom's testimony places Roberts at the scene, and we know he couldn’t have been there.
So weird that John doesn’t have lisp.

I can't believe Barry Kripke can kill a person
4:27 Tom Donovan realizes he's screwed.
Kripkey 😂😂from big bang theory
Title of this video has a double space between "solves" and "a".
So?
@@kathyanderson8299 it would drive Monk crazy.

Wish Monk could explain what the description of this video is trying to say.
3:43 if Sheldon proved this he definitely would have gotten revenge on Kripke
I love this show but it has WAY too many psychos who prefer murder over divorce.
That's... um... not the most unrealistic part, actually, sad to say.
Gotta love how Monk always specifies that sexual things are sexual.
The lead singer of disturbed?
Is that howie mandel?
Yes
Its Kripke!!!
Yes!
He finally fixed his lisp. Sadly he also murdered someone soon after.
I didn't see the rest of this episode. Why was there no blood on the seatbelt?
I'm not sure how the cult leader ended up in jail for the 100th case special.
I was wondering that too. At the end of the episode we see Monk put him on blast for his secret, but no arrest or lid blowing.
Fraud apparently gets you in prison
I knew the male suspect looked familiar. I couldn't place him at first.
Bawee Kwipkee
Wow. Just a neat seat belt catches a killer.
Is that the guy who plays Sheldons arch nemesis in the Big Band Theory?
Yup. It’s Kripke.
OMG i thought that was kripkee
Kripke!
I miss this show so much ! Please prolong it. Anyway... how Monk handle with daughter ? 😋
