Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What role is played by Tim Curry in "Mr. Monk Goes to Jail?"

Answer: Dale Biederbeck

In "Mr. Monk Goes to Jail" Tim Curry reprises the role of Dale "The Whale," originally played by Adam Arkin. Elliott D'Souza was played by Mark Tymchyshyn in "Mr. Monk and the Playboy."

In "Mr. Monk Goes to The Dentist" Randy restarted the band and suggested changing the name to The Randy Disher Experience. KoRn appeared aboard a tour bus in "Mr. Monk Gets Stuck in Traffic." Randy and the Dishettes was never a part of the show.
3. In "Mr. Monk Takes a Vacation," who witnesses a murder but is accused of having an overactive imagination?

Answer: Benjy

Benjy was Sharona's son. Only Monk believed him when he reported the crime. In "Mr. Monk Gets Cabin Fever" Natalie doesn't believe Adriane about the murder at first. Randy Disher was not believed in "Mr. Monk Goes to the Dentist," because he was under anesthesia when he witnessed the crime. Tommy Graser was the toddler who found the finger in "Mr. Monk and the Kid."
4. What type of pet did Julie's father give her?

Answer: Fish

In "Mr. Monk and the Red Herring" we learn that Julie, Natalie's daughter, had been given a Crimson Marblefish five years earlier by her father.

And Darwin, the chimp, was in "Mr. Monk and the Panic Room."
5. In "Mr. Monk Goes to the Dentist," Adrian states that he suffers from supermegaphobia, which seems to be a complex comprised of numerous phobias, which in Monk's case includes Mysophobia. What do Mysophobiacs fear?

Answer: Germs

Mysophobia is the fear of being contaminated with germs. The fear of Dust is called Amathophobia. Ophidiophobiacs share a common fear of snakes. Although the fear of Dentists is called Dentophobia, the fear of Dr Bloom, the dentist from this episode, might just be good old fashioned common sense.
6. From what phobia does Monk's brother, Ambrose, suffer?

Answer: Agoraphobia

Agoraphobia is the fear of open spaces or of being in crowded, public places like markets, or the fear of leaving a safe place
We know that Ambrose, doesn't suffer from a fear words (Logophobia), because of his career. He writes instruction booklets in several languages. And in "Mr. Monk goes home again" Ambrose has let their father's study become dust covered, something an Amathophobiac like Adrian would never allow. Hydrophobia is the fear of water.

Answer: The Beekeeper on "Mr. Monk Bumps His Head"

In addition to Ned, the beekeeper, Michael Shalhoub has played Ron Abrash in "Mr. Monk and the Missing Granny."
