Monk: Mr. Monk Goes to the Asylum (2002)
Season 1, Episode 5
7/10
The Murderer of the Asylum
7 April 2024
Monk breaks in the old house of his former wife Trudy by mistake and is sentenced to stay for 72 hours in an asylum that is renovating. The director Dr. Morris Lancaster holds him under therapy, and Monk learns from his roommate John Wurster that four years ago, a doctor was killed by an addicted patient that stole drugs and dies of OD on the next day. Monk and Wurster decide to investigate the old case and Monk finds that Dr. Lancaster is the real killer. But he is locked inside the institution under the care of the doctor with no contact with the exterior world.

"Mr. Monk Goes to the Asylum" is a silly episode of "Monk", more comedy than police story. The title song of this series is annoying, and this show is kind of ridiculous. Dr. Morris Lancaster dressed like Santa Claus is not a good option to find the weapon he used to kill. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "O Sr. Monk Vai para o Sanatório" ("Mr. Monk Goes to the Asylum")
