  • Monk figures out how the lotto was rigged and saves Natalie from going to jail!
    Monk is streaming now on Peacock: pck.tv/3JuixBg
    From Season 7 Episode 3 'Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever' - Natalie becomes the new lotto girl in California, and Mr. Monk finds himself a little jealous of Natalie's fame. She is embroiled in a scandal when the lotto machine is discovered to be rigged. Malcolm Barrett guest stars.

    Monk Synopsis: Adrian Monk (Emmy®-winner Tony Shalhoub) was once a rising star with the San Francisco Police Department, legendary for using unconventional means to solve the department's most baffling cases. But after the tragic and still-unsolved murder of his wife, Trudy, the devastated Monk becomes obsessive-compulsive. His psychological disorder has caused him to develop an abnormal fear of virtually everything: germs, heights, crowds... even milk. Monk's condition costs him his job, but he's back as a police consultant despite the unique challenges he encounters in his everyday life. These challenges lead Monk to hire a personal nurse, Sharona Fleming (Bitty Schram), who is always there to offer her assistance, even with the simplest of tasks (like organizing his sock drawer). Her less-than-subtle prodding keeps the "defective detective" on track in his investigations, as well as in his efforts to convince Captain Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine) to allow him to return to the force.

      @@mammutMK2 I'm confused, if she's new and a good friend of her's wins and they know the machine is rigged, the tip would suggest Natalie rigged it. The problem is how did they know it was rigged and why are they anonymous? An investigation should have been done in trying to discover the identity of the person who gave the tip, then the investigation should have led to how they knew about this rigging and their ties to the winners. The most obvious suspect was Natalie and the chief, but the other suspects were just as likely given all the information

      Take season 3, episode 7, when monk can't stop popping the bubblewrap he stood on, Sharona got annoyed yea, what did Stotlemyre do? Picked it up and started popping it with him to help him get through it faster, even pulled in 2 other cops to help out.
      If anything the portrayals of frustration and annoyance is the most lifelike portrayal of how people who do have to interact regularly with neurodivergent people react to their.... for lack of a better word due to my own ignorance, "quirks". Frustration, annoyance, but they never hold it, not once, against the person.
      It's human for it to be frustrating and annoying to them, as is the love and support they show and give regardless.
      People aren't perfect, neither should TV show characters.

      I am a recording engineer. That mic is a hypercardioid dynamic shotgun mic. Dynamic mics are built with a diaphragm that moves a coil in a magnetic field to produce the sound signal. Placing a strong enough magnet to lift a ping-pong ball covered in metal paint would render that mic inoperable at worst, and likely very thin sounding and quiet at best. The boom operator/soundman would have noticed a very weak signal and swapped it out with another mic before going "live". After the show, a tech would have run tests, finding the additional magnet, said "WTF", pulled it out, and asked who did this and either throw it in a box or the trash.
      In addition, any power to that mic at most would be 48volts max (phantom power) which might be enough to energize the magnet to pickup something a few inches away--maybe up to a foot - but not likely to be enough to pull up the balls. Also, my shotgun mics don't run on phantom power, but require a 9v battery. not nearly enough to power a strong E-magnet.

    • @MrYfrank14
      @MrYfrank14 Рік тому +11

      @@PlottingTheDownfall - only thing I disagree with is the power supply. Except for electrical interference, what he couls as a power supply should be unlimited because he could just duct tape a cord to the mic to run power to the magnet. I doubt anyone would question it because only a very few , like the electrician , would know what the cord was and that it did not belong there. Even then, custom duct tape is always holding odd bits together to get some custom sound or as an emergency repair, so I doubt anyone would question a 220v cable running up a mic stand.

      I'm sure the Lotteries hire a few people who come up with ways to cheat the system, so they can make sure it doesn't happen. I.e. the winning balls travel along a track, and there is a magnet to the side to grab any magnetic balls, a fully-transparent tube so people can see there isn't a hidden ball, scales along the path to make sure the ball is the right weight, aso.

    Washington State Lotto machine has a 'trap' built into the tubes that carry balls from the tumbler to the 'winners circle'.
    Balls come up through a tube in plan sight, but just before they are 'locked in' to be declared winners, they are hidden by part of the frame.
    This frame is more than wide enough to hide a pre-selected 'winner'; the balls pass through the tubes so fast the numbers are a blur on camera!

      It doesn't need much, just one fixed ball in that location will do, and let the other balls be random. For example if the machine is designed to use 6 balls as the winner. Secretly one ball is in place. The first random ball pops up, and the hidden ball is dispensed. The second random ball pops up, and the first is dispensed. Third pops up, second is dispensed aso. When #6 pops up, #5 is dispensed, and the machine is turned off allowing for #6 to fall back down.

    Cute, but that little magnet would barely attract a ball with magnetic paint if they were in direct contact. It's not pulling anything from 2-3 feet away; even if it was a superconductor hooked up to the power grid, the chute works by capturing a ball at the _lowest_ point, not highest, so the attracted balls would just be resting against the top of the dome where the field would be strongest.

      Everything is wrong with this, there is no way that there could be enough metal in the painted numbers for a magnet of any strength to pull them up. There is nothing to prevent an unpainted ball being legitimately being blown through... and did anyone else notice that not only were the same six balls pulled out by the magnet but the magnet was so finely tuned that it even pulled them out in the same order every time. 🤣

      @@pengwin_ the microphone there is a small diaphragm condenser microphone, which uses electric fields, not magnetic ones. Therefore, it is pretty resistant against a constant magnetic field, because that does not induce current into the wires and cannot interfere with the electric field.
      If it were a moving coil microphone, still, a stationary field might stop it from working alltogether (because the coil is locked in place by the magnetic field) but would not induce interference - because its the changes in the field that make up the signal, not the field per se.
      The mic would have terrible sound though with its main opening blocked by the magnet.

    Fun fact(s)... no matter how much metal is in the paint it is an extremely thin layer and thus not a lot of material for a magnet to pull against, so it's not going to experience any noticeable magnetic attraction at a distance of 2+ feet to an electromagnet that small because the attraction decreases with the cube of the distance, making for a force so minuscule as to be effectively non-existent from that range.
    Makes for a good show trick, but doesn't hold up to scrutiny.

That would be a tough break for the "honest person," but they could hardly give that person all that money, over all the other players, just because he lucked out on getting the numbers the "real cheater" used. No way can they do anything other than invalidate that drawing.
