"Oh, thank God you're here." Natalie Teeger said as she approached the police tape that surrounded the area. She was being greeted by Captain Stottlemeyer, who had just driven up to the crime scene. "He's...I have no idea."
"What do you mean?" Stottlemeyer asked as he laughed at Natalie's reaction. He then proceeded to look over to the scene of the crime...where Adrian Monk was wearing an Iron Man mask and jumping around. "Well, this is a new one." He said as he made his way under the tape, followed by Randy. He walked up to Monk, which had stopped him with his...investigation. "Monk, uh...what the hell are you doing?"
"My job." Monk said quickly before jumping around some more.
"Alright, fair enough. But why are you wearing that mask and jumping around like an idiot?"
Monk raised his mask as he walked back up to Leland and placed his hands together. "I figured out...how she was killed." He pointed to the body sticking out the door of a liquor store. "And here's what happened."
The typical flashback happened, now showing the young lady who's corpse lay in the doors of the liquor store in present day, walking around in said store. Monk narrated, detailing what was going on.
"It was a normal day for this young woman. She opened up the store, set things up for the day, got all the liquor out for the drunks to buy."
"Monk!" Natalie shouted, interrupting him.
"I call it like I see it. But the point is, shortly after she had set everything up, rather sloppily I might add—I mean look, the bottles aren't alphabetized by name, brand, color or smell."
"Get to the point, Monk, a body is rotting in front of us." Sottlemeyer said, also interrupting.
"Right, well, sometime after setting it all up, Tony Stark crashed through the ceiling at top speed." Monk said, sounding sure of his bizarre statement. "He landed right next to her and said 'I am Iron Man, and I hereby commandeer this liquor' He grabbed a case of malt liquor, but she grabbed his arm and tried to stop him. At this point, Tony was too drunk to realize right from wrong and tossed her aside, using his strength. She hit her head on the counter, and then fell in between the door. And then...he fled the scene."
At this point, cut back to the present by the way, everyone around him had started to stare at him.
"What?"
"Tony Stark..." Leland quipped. "You're telling me that Iron Man did this? A fictional character broke in, stole some booze and killed this lady?"
"Well, not on purpose, but yes. Iron Man wouldn't just kill someone, you know." Randy added, actually believing the whole thing. "What? I'm...sort of an Iron Man fan, I know he wouldn't just do that."
"Randy, Iron Man doesn't exist, it's a comic book and movie character, Monk is obviously just..." Leland was stopped as he noticed that Monk was jumping around some more. "Monk is just suffering a nervous breakdown." He pulled Natalie in quickly. "Natalie, I want you to call Dr. Bell and...fix him or something because this can't go on, this is worse than the time he accused Alice Cooper of stealing a chair."
"Right." Natalie pulled her phone from the purse and headed toward her car as she dialed the phone.
Everyone else, meanwhile, left the scene of the crime because they all didn't believe Monk and just wanted to call it a day, leaving him standing there.
"But...Iron Man did do it, I figured it all out and everything." Monk said as he removed his mask and looked at it.
Iron Man flew down next to him moments later, holding a bottle of liquor. He was still drunk as ever. "They don't believe you, huh?"
"Nope, they sure don't Tony."
"Well...sucks to be you!" Iron Man smashed the bottle against the back of Monk's head and flew off.
