The Case of the Voodoo Murders | Monk

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

"I'll go with you." In a tiny, cramped area with other humans and bodily fluids. He really does care.

That's because Monk wants her, Monk needs her, but there ain't no way he's ever gonna love her.

[@ChromeCobra]

There are different types of love. He absolutely loves Natalie, but not in a sexual way. He even said in an episode that she reminds him of Trudy.

[@jaceylfe]

@@ChromeCobra it was a joke because the guy playing the voodoo doctor is Meatloaf. He has a song called "two out of three ain't bad." You should listen to it.

[@shevahauser1780]

the way he caught , snd held on to her...

[@JesseGolo]

For those confused: She only killed the third victim. She mailed the boxes to herself to get an accurate post mark, then she'd make a Voodoo doll of dead people who died in ways that couldn't be interpreted as homicide (struck by lightning, baseball accident) she saw at her paramedic job and placed the boxes in their houses to make it look like a prediction. Then she poisoned her uncle to make it look like a heart attack killed him. That way, people would associate it with some supernatural killer. It's amazing I can still remember this episode so well after I last watched it.

[@harringt100]

But why did she want to kill Natalie?

[@JesseGolo]

@@harringt100 I think she was just trying to scare them off the case.

[@dr.bartfratze9354]

Okay, but how did she get an authentic post mark on the packets?

[@JesseGolo]

@@dr.bartfratze9354 She mailed them to herself. Then she took the postmarked boxes to the victim's homes to make it look like they got the boxes earlier.

[@Levacque]

I second-guessed myself like 3 times watching this. "Is that Meat Loaf? Didn't really sound like him there, but is it him??"

[@weneedaladder8384]

I love Randy silently telling off the police sergeant for not wearing gloves while handling evidence. It's a tiny thing, but with so many shows where people just pick stuff up with their bare hands, it's nice that someone acknowledges that's not what you're supposed to do. Edit: 2:00

[@moviehermit5631]

2:04 I like how Randy has that moment of showing that while he’s goofy, he’s still capable as a cop considering he’s aware of the importance of using gloves when handling evidence (that the Sergeant completely forgot about)

[@ussxrequin]

No, he used a knife and Lt. Disher's gloved hand.

[@moviehermit5631]

@@ussxrequin I was talking about the sergeant who handed over the box with his ungloved hand, not Captain Stottlemeyer

[@KupKate215]

When I first watched this episode, during the scene at 4:40 my dad just said 'You know, it's the final season, they could just kill Natalie off.' That's how this became the scariest episode for me (at least at the time). I was on the edge of my seat until Monk solved it. It's actually a pretty creative case, such a surreal and spooky buildup to a really elaborate and yet anticlimactic whodunnit.

[@gordon5004]

I love the end when he's throwing graveyard dirt into the ambulance.

Just want to say Meatloaf did an awesome job in this too. This was one episode I was really wondering about how the killer did it.

2:35 the way Capt grabs Randy's hand to open the other side oml im dead 😭😆😆

[@yoservs]

i never thought there could be a detective show could ever come close to Columbo. i was wrong. Monk was a refreshing addition to television. brilliant characterisation and quality stories with hilarious comic relief.

[@keithbannister9271]

AGREED!! 💯

[@denisejefferson5977]

It’s funny how Monk couldn’t concentrate on the first voodoo doll death until the squad room furniture was put back to its original state. The captain was so irritated.🤣🤣🤣🤣

Man I recently just rewatched all the episodes and will have to go through them again sometime soon one of the only shows where I loved the ending and never felt any bad seasons

[@maribelnlopez3933]

I was wondering if you can help me? Is there an episode where it talks about how Natalie tried to clear Mitch’s name? I can’t remember.

[@DetectiveJones]

@@maribelnlopez3933 Closest I can think of is a later season (I believe 7) where they go on a Submarine and they help Mitch's friend on an alleged suicide that turns out to be murder but what youre saying does ring a bell so Ill see if I can think of the episode

[@DetectiveJones]

​@@maribelnlopez3933 I cant recall any further information on Mitch besides when she first tells Monk how hes seen as a coward in the Navy for abandoning his fellow soldiers but after that I dont think they mention too much more of him outside just general references like in Monk is on the run where he takes his Uniform but I dont believe they ever clear his name

[@maribelnlopez3933]

@@DetectiveJones Thank you so much for helping me out

[@ChromeCobra]

When she was running for the school board, she mentions that Mitch's buddies said he took all supplies and abandoned them, making him a coward. That is why she didnt quit after the bomb in her fridge that Monk had to open the door for and straighten after he threw it in there initially. Anyways, she wanted to be couragous for Julie because the Navy said Mitch was a coward on record.

[@craigmarriott6759]

Some people believe you have to hang horseshoes facing downwards so the devil dosen't sit in the bottom of it.

[@Levacque]

It could also be argued that a house with a downward-facing shoe is generous of spirit, because they allow their luck to flow out of their home.

[@marthalainez4628]

[@lukacunningham342]

Y’know, I wonder if this whole episode was a reference to Agatha Christie’s “The ABC Murders”. It has some connections, after all, it wouldn’t be too out of left field, remember “Three Pies”? It was based off a Sherlock Holmes short story “The Six Napoleons”

[@KneelB4SodsLaw]

5:24 loving the homage here

[@mathmaniac3033]

I just realized this episode feels like a nod to Agatha Christie's book "The ABC Murders." Strange phenomenon, third kill was the one that mattered, family member caused the murder, and some third party was used as a decoy for the killer.

[@mysteryfan15]

That's what I was thinking too. Monk is a lot like Poirot so it would make sense that the writers are AC fans.

As a responding paramedic, she'd definitely have the chance to take some hair or blood from the victims. Also, she hung a horseshoe upside down, so maybe she's not too keen on the occult to begin with.

[@Arjay404]

She has all this medical stuff in the ambulance, things that could easily kill someone if given too much, but she resorts to trying to strangle her, which would immediately be noticed by a doctor and medical examiner. Good luck explaining how she got strangled. At least with the drugs you could argue a mistake if questioned.
