Talk:Mr. Monk and the Miracle

Goofs
This list, transferred from the main article, is only going to incite controversy if left there.

In addition to being unsubstantiated, it is really too inconsequential for WP. The IMDb already does a job of handling details of this kind.

 * When Julie is talking with Monk about his cardboard tree, her arms change position (from the side to crossed) depending on the camera angle.
 * Look closely at the pill bottles when Monk picks them up: they obviously contain Sweet Tart like candies of different colors.
 * When Monk is first approaching Stottlemeyer in the monastery, the hood of Stottlemeyer's robe changes position between camera angles.
 * It's a long reach for Monk to immediately assume that the Canadian bottles in Willie's shopping cart were from Stottlemeyer's house. The only way that he could have been certain that they were from Stottlemeyer's house would have been to test the bottle for the Captain's fingerprints or DNA (since Stottlemeyer drank directly out of the bottle), because unless said tests were run, the bottles could have come from just about anywhere in the city, however, given that the bottles were imported, few people would be likely to have them in their houses and it would be easy to run a trace.
 * Being an ex-cop and a (mostly) rational thinking person, Monk is suspicious about the fountain's healing powers from the very beginning (reinforcing the fact that he doesn't believe in miracles). Yet, when Stottlemeyer drinks from the fountain, he shows no indication of suspicion about the fountain's abilities, something that his cop instincts would have picked up. Stottlemeyer has been shown in previous episodes to not be naive and gullible.
 * Even though Monk becomes suspicious about the fountain, why didn't he have the police launch an investigation in it?
