It's a Gift and a Podcast

We loved this episode!
Risks were taken and some stuff was stupid, but there were so many great parts!

Also. My new puppy still defines me...

This episode covers union disputes, marital spats, digital camera purchases and proper forensic evidence.

SO all in all, VERY EXCITING STUFF!

Alan's Hammock Hobbies are depressingly discussed.
Arielle Wore an argyle swimsuit.
Monk's IR Bro is in this 'sode!

The Villain of this episode looks like a Hallmark Channel Kevin Spacey

Maybe the best episode of the whole series, IMHO.
Ambrose as the Mycroft to Monk's Sherlock was was pretty perfect.
I think I have a huge crush on Holt McAllany.
