Some great Monk moments where you can see that Adrian Monk hates Dale the Whale (a bed ridden obese man who is a master criminal), because he thinks Dale was responsible for killing his wife. Meanwhile, Monk has to figure out how Dale killed a judge who identified Dale by telephone moments before she was bludgeoned to death. How the crime was done was predictable but there is some business with Sharona getting work with Dale that was unlikely - why would Dale do it knowing she is Monk's assistant? But still, the tension created by Monk's reaction to Dale's taunting about Trudy's death (Monk wife) is priceless. And the last two scenes are rewind moments.
