Shalhoub & Turturro Make For Fascinating Brothers

A little mousy-looking guy comes out of a small grocery store and follows a cop to the latter's Brinx-type vehicle, asks him for a light and then shoots and kills him. That's the opening scene.

It turns out the man never looked in the truck so robbery wasn't the motive. We then switch to the next "story" being that Monk's father, who he and his brother Ambrose haven't seen in years, is visiting to city on Halloween night and is going to meet them at Ambrose's house at 8. Just before that, with Adrian, Natalie and her daughter all at the bizarre house of the bizarre Ambrose (John Turturro), a small "Frankenstein Monster" appears at the door, clubs Ambrose over the head and takes candy. Later, the man does the same thing a bunch of kids in a park. Monk discovers the only kids robbed of their candy are the ones who visited Ambrose's house. Also, Monk discovers a the same clue that he saw at the murder scene.

What is going on? Why is this wacko stealing candy and killing someone?

This was an excellent episode, combining suspense, humor and sentimentality. There is a lot of warmth to this story. I hope Turturro and his character are in more episodes because the two he's been in have been terrific shows.
