* FromNobodyToNightmare: Jacob Posner was just an average coin dealer who went to what he thought was a drug deal only to watch what he thought was a cop being murdered, and he shelled out a bunch of merchandise to cover up that he was there. Nothing about the guy gives an indication he'd ever done anything violent (except possibly in self-defense) in his life. When he gets told by Monk and Stottlemeyer that the "dead" cop was at the train station, he kills that guy for real and was planning to bump off the other two con artists before Monk showed up.

Adrian Monk can't sleep after seeing a woman he's never seen before. Dr. Kroger speculates that Monk is sexually attracted to the woman. Upon Natalie's suggestion, Monk goes out for a walk, and discovers the woman is a taxicab driver, Maria Cordova (Terri Hoyos).
Monk also witnesses a drug bust gone wrong, but when he calls Stottlemeyer and Disher in, and they find no evidence of what Monk described, they assume that what Monk saw was a waking dream. However, it turns out that what Monk saw was a staged murder for the purpose of shaking down a gullible coin dealer for some valuably rare coins.
!This episode contains examples of the following tropes:
* DrivingQuestion: Who killed Trudy Monk? She died on December 14, 1997. Maria has a tattoo of that date (as "12-14-97") because that's the date she got a cornea transplant from Trudy. So, in a sense, Maria has Trudy's eyes. This brings Adrian and Maria a shared moment of catharsis, but the driving question remains unsettled.
* MandatoryLine: Aside from her suggestion to Adrian on the phone to go for a walk, Natalie is almost completely absent from this episode. To make up for it, she gets a little scene tacked on at the end, in which she goes to Adrian's apartment and finds him sound asleep.
* InsomniaEpisode: Although Adrian Monk has suffered insomnia before (see "Mr. Monk and the Garbage Strike"), this episode is clearly ''the'' insomnia episode of the series.
