[Stottlemeyer shooes away an officer with mismatched socks]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Ah. Okey-dokey, bad man all gone. He's directing traffic on Ridgewood Avenue.
Adrian Monk: Did he understand?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: No, he didn't understand. I've known you a long time, Adrian, and I don't understand.
Sharona Fleming: Can we just focus on the work now?
Adrian Monk: OK.
Captain Leland 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.
Adrian Monk: Wait a minute, he leaps down?
Captain Leland 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.
Adrian Monk: Really?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: At this point, pulls a gun, fires one round, right through the guy's heart - killshot. [imitates pulling a gun]
Adrian Monk: From here? What is that, thirty feet?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Thirty-four. I know, that's a hell of a shot. We pulled that slug out of the planter box.
Lt. Randall Disher: Look at this. [He shows Monk an evidence bag containing the recovered bullet]
Adrian Monk: [incredulous] What did he use? A cannon?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: That's a .454 from a Ruger Casull.
Lt. Randall Disher: They use it on safaris, to stop elephants.
Adrian Monk: And who was the victim?
Lt. Randall Disher: [looks at his notes] Uh, his name is Sergei Cluvarias. They're running it now.
Adrian Monk: Table's set for two. Who was his date?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Some broad. She ran off. We'll have a sketch soon. [Monk looks at the table]
Adrian Monk: Uh-huh. Where is the sugar?
Lt. Randall Disher: Sugar? [We see a close up of the empty sugar bowl, with just a trace of unrefined sugar lining it]
Adrian Monk: The sugar cubes. This bowl's empty. All the other bowls are full.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: You're right. What's that mean?
Adrian Monk: I don't know. What about the cashier?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: No, showed zero interest. This wasn't about money.
Lt. Randall Disher: Or it was, and he got scared away. [Monk picks up something off another table with his fingers]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: What's that?
Adrian Monk: Wood shavings.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Wood shavings?
Adrian Monk: Sawdust?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Randy! [Randy comes back with an evidence bag]
Adrian Monk: What happened next?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Well, the getaway, which is why you're here. I thought this might be right up your alley.
Lt. Randall Disher: No pun intended. [Stottlemeyer and Monk shoot a nasty glare at Randy]
Adrian Monk: What pun is that?
Lt. Randall Disher: Because of the alley.
Captain Leland 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]
Adrian Monk: Is there a circus in town?
Lt. Randall Disher: A circus? [An officer hands something to Randy]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Ha ha. Circus. That makes a lot of sense. [Randy turns to them]
Lt. Randall Disher: Sir?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Yeah?
Lt. Randall Disher: We just got a positive on the victim. He's the master of ceremony at the Dratch & Denby Traveling Circus.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Master of ceremonies?
Lt. Randall Disher: Yeah, the ringmaster.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: At the circus?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Ah. Okey-dokey, bad man all gone. He's directing traffic on Ridgewood Avenue.
