***WARNING THIS IS A SUMMARY OF THE SEASON FINALE OF MONK***

The season finale opens with Monk opening a present Trudy had given Monk prior to her death.  He waited until now to open it.  In the movie Trudy admits to having an affair with a judge and admits to a pregnancy to a baby that died at birth.

As the episode progresses Monk realizes he has been poisoned by the same person who murdered his wife, and his wife’s baby.  Once Monk and Natalie figure out who did it (the judge) Natalie becomes poison as well because the poison was in the wipes.

As Monk is on his death bed in the hospital he escapes and goes to the judges house and asks him to dig in the backyard where Monk suspects the mid-wife is buried (the mid-wife who delivered Trudy’s baby).  The judge shot himself.

Because Natalie was poisoned the doctors were able to find the antidote and save both MONK and Natalie.  MONK IS ALIVE, HE DIDN’T DIE!!!

In the next scene Monk remembers the judge’s last words “Take Care of Her”.  Monk puts the pieces together and now understands that the judge meant for Monk to take care of Trudy’s daughter, WHO IS STILL ALIVE – her name is Molly Evans!

Monk met Trudy’s daughter, Molly Evans who looks exactly like Trudy.

At the end of the season finale Randy announces he is leaving to become a police chief in New Jersey.  He is moving to New Jersey to live with Sharona because they are in love

Monk and Molly are spending time together and she tells him not to quit his job and that she will always be in his life.

Monk was a great show, good thing for re-runs and dvd copies
