[Randy gives the Monk-fed summation on how Belmont killed Harvey Disher]Lt. Disher: It was a perfect alibi, and that is how you did it, Mr. Belmont.Deputy Lenny Hatcher: Um, I'm not following.Monk: Randy, I don't think you're quite done. You mentioned that part about the… [imitates sprinklers running] Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch. Sprinklers.Lt. Disher: Yes! I'm not done yet. The sprinklers! [In a black-and-white flashback, the sprinklers go on, and the salt licks that have propped up the rear wheels on Harvey's truck melt, and the truck rolls forward] At 8:00, the sprinklers kicked on and melted the blocks of salt. [The truck runs straight into the electric fence, causing several sparks from a short-circuit] Touchdown. [The lights in the dance hall flicker] When the lights flickered, you were half a mile in front of fifty witnesses. [Flashback ends] That's the prettiest piece of homicide I've ever encountered. Where were you?Monk: I…I guess I just…I don't know.Lt. Disher: I understand. You're in a slump. Don't worry. I've been there. Just give it time. You'll be back.Deputy Lenny Hatcher: It would explain a lot.Sheriff Margie Butterfield: It would explain everything. Including the deer: They were licking the salt.Jimmy Belmont: Now that is a nice story. See that's all it is. [advances on Randy to the point of getting in his face] Where's your proof? Physical proof. You don't have any, do you?Monk: I think he's right. [Randy suddenly has an epiphany]Lt. Disher: Sheriff, do you have an evidence bag? Monk, your pen. [He takes both and walks over to the driver's side door of the truck] This truck was never touched or moved, right? [He uses the pen to remove the keys from the ignition, and then breathes air onto it, revealing a fingerprint] Yes. That's a fingerprint. See that? [to Belmont] If this is your fingerprint, it means that you were the last person to operate that vehicle. Is that proof enough?
