Monk, Season 2
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
All right. It's 12:30, the place is packed. Everybody's having a good time. Then the perp, dressed in black, comes down the fire escape, and leaps down.
Monk:
Wait a minute, he leaps down?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Yep. [points] Now the maitre'd is here, trying to call 911 on his cell phone. He confronts the perp, the perp does a spin move... [spins and lifts up his foot; imitating the killer] Hits the phone out of the maitre'd's hand.
Monk:
Really?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
At this point, pulls a gun, fires one round, right through the guy's heart - killshot. [imitates pulling a gun]
Monk:
From here? What is that, thirty feet?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Thirty-four. I know, that's a hell of a shot. We pulled that slug out of the planter box.
Lt. Disher:
Look at this. [He shows Monk an evidence bag containing the recovered bullet]
Monk:
[incredulous] What did he use? A cannon?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
That's a .454 from a Ruger Casull.
Lt. Disher:
They use it on safaris, to stop elephants.
Monk:
And who was the victim?
Lt. Disher:
[looks at his notes] Uh, his name is Sergei Cluvarias. They're running it now.
Monk:
Table's set for two. Who was his date?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Some broad. She ran off. We'll have a sketch soon. [Monk looks at the table]
Monk:
Uh-huh. Where is the sugar?
Lt. Disher:
Sugar? [We see a close up of the empty sugar bowl, with just a trace of unrefined sugar lining it]
Monk:
The sugar cubes. This bowl's empty. All the other bowls are full.
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
You're right. What's that mean?
Monk:
I don't know. What about the cashier?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
No, showed zero interest. This wasn't about money.
Lt. Disher:
Or it was, and he got scared away. [Monk picks up something off another table with his fingers]
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
What's that?
Monk:
Wood shavings.
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Wood shavings?
Monk:
Sawdust?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Randy! [Randy comes back with an evidence bag]
Monk:
What happened next?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Well, the getaway, which is why you're here. I thought this might be right up your alley.
Lt. Disher:
No pun intended. [Stottlemeyer and Monk shoot a nasty glare at Randy]
Monk:
What pun is that?
Lt. Disher:
Because of the alley.
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Shecky, can I continue? All right. For once, the witnesses are all on the same page: they all saw the perp jump to this table, and then leaped up to this bar [He gestures to show the killer's actions] …and did a somersault, and then over the valet, runs down the street and makes a left turn down the alley.
[Monk looks on]
Monk:
Is there a circus in town?
Lt. Disher:
A circus? [An officer hands something to Randy]
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Ha ha. Circus. That makes a lot of sense. [Randy turns to them]
Lt. Disher:
Sir?
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Yeah?
Lt. Disher:
We just got a positive on the victim. He's the master of ceremony at the Dratch & Denby Traveling Circus.
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
Master of ceremonies?
Lt. Disher:
Yeah, the ringmaster.
Capt. Stottlemeyer:
At the circus?
