Added example(s), Note: I had to rewind the scene when Monk stole Randy’s gun; it was really impressive.
Added DiffLines:
* How Monk is able to prove that Gavin Lloyd was behind the assassination of the mayor’s bodyguard: after experiencing an echo while visiting the site of his wife’s car bombing, Monk realizes that there should’ve been a similar echo effect in the location where the mayor was having his speech on the day of the attempted assassination. With the help of Sorona calling in a favor, Monk is able to get everyone on who was present on the stage and as he gives his theory on what happened, he’s able to prove Gavin’s guilt by having Sharona fire a starter’s pistol and demand that Gavin point out which building she’s in, which he did when the mayor was shot at; Gavin is unable to confidently do so, despite having done so during the “assassination attempt” and ends up confessing.
** In the same episode, Sharona goes after Ian Sykes, guy Gavin hired to do his dirty work and tries to kill Gavin in revenge for the latter’s attempt to kill him. Afraid for her life, Monk sneakily steals Randy’s Beretta under his nose ''on-screen'', braves through a nasty, rat-filled sewer, dives his arm into the water after his gun gets knocked into the water by a random pipe dumping water on him, and most impressively, he manages to nearly headshot Sykes in pitch darkness after he cuts out the lights of the tunnel; the bullet ends up grazing Sykes’ head, which is enough to stun him and he’s soon apprehended by the police off-screen.
