Monk Synopsis: Adrian Monk (Emmy®-winner Tony Shalhoub) was once a rising star with the San Francisco Police Department, legendary for using unconventional means to solve the department's most baffling cases. But after the tragic and still-unsolved murder of his wife, Trudy, the devastated Monk becomes obsessive-compulsive. His psychological disorder has caused him to develop an abnormal fear of virtually everything: germs, heights, crowds... even milk. Monk's condition costs him his job, but he's back as a police consultant despite the unique challenges he encounters in his everyday life. These challenges lead Monk to hire a personal nurse, Sharona Fleming (Bitty Schram), who is always there to offer her assistance, even with the simplest of tasks (like organizing his sock drawer). Her less-than-subtle prodding keeps the "defective detective" on track in his investigations, as well as in his efforts to convince Captain Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine) to allow him to return to the force.

Insane that they found the connection between Natalie and Stottlemeyer but didn't find out that the other winner had been friends with the previous worker for years.
Because of the ol' anonymous phone call tipoff.
Natalie being new, than the win goes to a good friend of her, the tip...in that moment it looks pretty obvious
@@mammutMK2 I'm confused, if she's new and a good friend of her's wins and they know the machine is rigged, the tip would suggest Natalie rigged it. The problem is how did they know it was rigged and why are they anonymous? An investigation should have been done in trying to discover the identity of the person who gave the tip, then the investigation should have led to how they knew about this rigging and their ties to the winners. The most obvious suspect was Natalie and the chief, but the other suspects were just as likely given all the information
The anonymous tip pointed the evidence to natalie and the captain... they weren't looking for other suspects
It wasn't in the script
"Looks like you painted yourself into a corner" was actually a pretty good one.
Agreed
That one was good.
"You have a right to remain silent."
"*I* will if *you* will!"
I don't usually like villain/criminal quotes, but this one made me laugh!
I agree, that was just perfect.
Sidenote: punctuation marks are still counted as part of a word/phrase to get *bolded.* Same for -strikethrough- and _italics_
A crook shut Randy up? Brilliant someone other then Stottlemeyer to do it
I love randy so much, he brings a different kind of humor to the show, very underrated - well written and performed :)
haha XD homicide is so funny, i love this and how lighthearted it treats murderers haha xD 😆
Gets accused of murder, "you think I rigged the jackpot?". Man's definitely got his priorities straight.
Shafting the gambling networks usually has worse consequences than killing a random bozo
"You have the right to remain silent." "I will if you will." Classic!
Randy never shuts up.
In America, everyone has the right to remain silent. And so few do.
Unfortunately, now that he started, Randy is legally required to list off the entire Miranda rights start to finish.
Shut up Billy. (Punches him in the balls)
I loved how Mr. Monk was immediately concerned by the look on Natalie's face! He is a really annoying but nonetheless a good friend to have!
Considering how they treated Monk in the beginning, Natalie was probably the only character who was nice from the start and the only one I liked. It's hard to watch this show from the start due to all the hate towards him. It's also why I can't watch the show, only these clips of the 'best' times.
@@Degenerecy It's not 'hate' at the start, it's frustration, cause at the start of the show he was just getting back on his feet after everything that happened to Trudy.
Take season 3, episode 7, when monk can't stop popping the bubblewrap he stood on, Sharona got annoyed yea, what did Stotlemyre do? Picked it up and started popping it with him to help him get through it faster, even pulled in 2 other cops to help out.
If anything the portrayals of frustration and annoyance is the most lifelike portrayal of how people who do have to interact regularly with neurodivergent people react to their.... for lack of a better word due to my own ignorance, "quirks". Frustration, annoyance, but they never hold it, not once, against the person.
It's human for it to be frustrating and annoying to them, as is the love and support they show and give regardless.
People aren't perfect, neither should TV show characters.
It is admirable that you do find that treatment towards him unsavory, but if you apply that to everyday interactions in the real world you're going to end up a very lonely person.
And it shows that even though Natalie quit (with good reason of monk being selfish) he never held what happened against her and welcomed her back with open arms
@@satmtca Definitely open arms, he couldn't bring himself to close them around her.
A good friend to have? You mean, if you're a character on the show?
Love that smile on Monks face at 4:27 because he figured it out.
I wanted to see the look on the commissioners faces when they were wrong.
Considering that they fired an employee (the actual killer and saboteur) who worked for years so easily, imagine how much they tore into Natalie, calling her things Monk would never say to her.
Natalie made the right choice coming back
Natalie made the right choice coming back
"Glad you like numbers, Billy. You're gonna be wearing some numbers on your shirt."
"Is that right?"
"They won't be lottery numbers."
"I get it."
"'cause you're going to prison."
"Yeah, I get it."
"You have the right to remain silent."
"I will if you will."
😆😆😆😆
Randy was always good for saying things
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I've never seen this show.
I thought that was Chandler Bing
Monk trying to succumb to Natalie's hug is everything 😆😆
I'd be just like Monk was since I have a touch discomfort as well
It's a pretty low hug, so that probably made it worse.
Foi nada,ele estava sentindo ser atacado por milhares de germes mas não podia afasta-la pois ela estava precisando de sua ajuda.Foi realmente deseperador pra ele
I'm not a sound tech, but I'm reasonably certain this would not work because of the interference the electromagnet would cause the microphone. Everyone would "hear"the electricity.
And I don't think metallic paint contains enough metal to cause the balls to go up the chute.
@@McSmacks If it was, I feel like they'd immediately be stuck to the dome with the balls in it or the first one stuck to the top of the chute instead of rolling down, causing a blockage in the chute.
@@McSmacks Depending on the iron content it might but any magnet strong enough to pull the weight of one of those balls up would be 100% noticeable on any nearby electronics and on a live television set, thats everywhere.
I am a recording engineer. That mic is a hypercardioid dynamic shotgun mic. Dynamic mics are built with a diaphragm that moves a coil in a magnetic field to produce the sound signal. Placing a strong enough magnet to lift a ping-pong ball covered in metal paint would render that mic inoperable at worst, and likely very thin sounding and quiet at best. The boom operator/soundman would have noticed a very weak signal and swapped it out with another mic before going "live". After the show, a tech would have run tests, finding the additional magnet, said "WTF", pulled it out, and asked who did this and either throw it in a box or the trash.
In addition, any power to that mic at most would be 48volts max (phantom power) which might be enough to energize the magnet to pickup something a few inches away--maybe up to a foot - but not likely to be enough to pull up the balls. Also, my shotgun mics don't run on phantom power, but require a 9v battery. not nearly enough to power a strong E-magnet.
@@PlottingTheDownfall - only thing I disagree with is the power supply. Except for electrical interference, what he couls as a power supply should be unlimited because he could just duct tape a cord to the mic to run power to the magnet. I doubt anyone would question it because only a very few , like the electrician , would know what the cord was and that it did not belong there. Even then, custom duct tape is always holding odd bits together to get some custom sound or as an emergency repair, so I doubt anyone would question a 220v cable running up a mic stand.
"You have the right to remain silent"
"I will if you will"
LMAO!
I love Randy and his bad puns, but that was a helluva comeback!
I love how Randy keeps popping out puns.
Its cos earlier in the episode another cop said "I guess her number just came up" at the crime scene of the dead lotto girl before Randy could and he spent the rest of the episode trying to come up with another one
I praise Stottlemeyer for putting up with Randy but mostly when Monk has his phobia moments
Randy wants to play with the other kids in the sandbox and struggles to bring something to the table.
Disher's so stupid he reminds me of me!
More like *dishing* out puns.
Cause he's a Disher.
A Randy Disher.
I really would have liked to have seen the lottery people's reaction to Monk telling them what happened when he solved the case which I assumed he did. I'm sure some apologies were made to Natalie and Leland that we didn't get to see
Yeah because they didn’t even check everything like Monk did
Nah, those people seem like the kinds of people who, once they form an opinion of someone, they stick to that opinion till the day they day, EVEN IF proof is shown that their opinion is 100% wrong.
in a situation like that I'd suggest that the captain not only sue the lottery department for false accusation, but do so publicly with a lot of press.
suddenly the lottery department doesn't look so appealing.
Except that he wouldn't have much of a case, as they had reasonable belief that he and Natalie had cheated using the magnet due to the "anonymous tip" they received. The best the captain could reasonably expect to receive from them would be a public apology and them dropping the charges.
Monk was such an underrated show.
That smirk Monk gives with the "Im sure he did" just kills me man
I wish i could’ve seen the faces of the lotto commissioners when they saw they were wrong. They should’ve put in a scene where they apologized to them both and televised their apologies
I think they’ll have been ordered to drop the charges with the threat of dishonourable redundancy and legal action.
Washington State Lotto machine has a 'trap' built into the tubes that carry balls from the tumbler to the 'winners circle'.
Balls come up through a tube in plan sight, but just before they are 'locked in' to be declared winners, they are hidden by part of the frame.
This frame is more than wide enough to hide a pre-selected 'winner'; the balls pass through the tubes so fast the numbers are a blur on camera!
I played Lotto for years, then I watched a drawing in person...never playing again.
It is well known the balls on the screen are a fiction and there are physical mechanism to select pre-seeded balls. The real numbers are pre-selected via a well-vetted process and the balls are replaced to represent that answer.
Do you know what your odds of actually winning lotto are?
Let's just say you are *far* more likely to get hit by lightning...
It doesn't need much, just one fixed ball in that location will do, and let the other balls be random. For example if the machine is designed to use 6 balls as the winner. Secretly one ball is in place. The first random ball pops up, and the hidden ball is dispensed. The second random ball pops up, and the first is dispensed. Third pops up, second is dispensed aso. When #6 pops up, #5 is dispensed, and the machine is turned off allowing for #6 to fall back down.
@@afuzzycreature8387 by well vetted you mean they run the numbers and pick a combination that nobody else did
@@hankkingsley9300 Nah more like numbers that haven't shown up often. There's a reason some people got banned from lotto because when they figured out the formula for selecting numbers. They won like three times in a row before being barred from playing again. It's a mathematical algorithm that chooses the wins. And since that was found out, they have to write up a new one every few months in order to prevent people from cracking the code again.
I'm guessing that despite Stottlemeyer not having a thing to do with the rigging, he didn't get to keep any of the money?
That Was my question to. That, and did he and Natalie get a formal apology?
@@h.a.s.7612 My guess, they got their apology, but since the game was rigged, it wouldn't be legal to pay out the winnings as the actual element of chance has been removed - regardless of whether any players knew about it. The difference between a completely random series of numbers, and a predetermined series.
@@BrazenBard Also, the ticket numbers that stottlemiere had were planted. He never bought a ticket with those lottery numbers. The bad guy here slipped a ticket in with his group of other lottery tickets.
@@BrazenBard But they settled with the real criminal, cause they thought Stottlemiere rigged it. So by that logic he could settle an agreement as well. Quiet technically everyone who bought a lottery ticket could sue them, since they paid for something and had no chance to win. So and apology would not have been enough :D But its a tv show :D its fine :D
Thank you for the asnwers, guys. Yes it's a show but also nice for me ,who's not from the US, to know a bit about lottery
behind his madness, always remember, Adrian Monk always cared for his friends.
He hated that she was hugging him, but he didn't make her stop.
@@myrixica4222 More than that, he kept trying to hug her back, but couldn't
Its not madness its OCD massively intencifed by the trumatic murder of his wife
Also remember that Natalie agreed to work with him only after he saved her daughter's goldfish despite his aversion to such things.
@@myrixica4222 That is probably a phobia to germs and dirt which he developed after his wife was killed.
Cute, but that little magnet would barely attract a ball with magnetic paint if they were in direct contact. It's not pulling anything from 2-3 feet away; even if it was a superconductor hooked up to the power grid, the chute works by capturing a ball at the _lowest_ point, not highest, so the attracted balls would just be resting against the top of the dome where the field would be strongest.
not only that, but i bet a magnet that powerful would interfere with the mic
@@pengwin_ Haha yeah, also anything else metal or electronic nearby, which is a lot of stuff in a TV studio. It's a really dumb twist.
Everything is wrong with this, there is no way that there could be enough metal in the painted numbers for a magnet of any strength to pull them up. There is nothing to prevent an unpainted ball being legitimately being blown through... and did anyone else notice that not only were the same six balls pulled out by the magnet but the magnet was so finely tuned that it even pulled them out in the same order every time. 🤣
@@pengwin_ the microphone there is a small diaphragm condenser microphone, which uses electric fields, not magnetic ones. Therefore, it is pretty resistant against a constant magnetic field, because that does not induce current into the wires and cannot interfere with the electric field.
If it were a moving coil microphone, still, a stationary field might stop it from working alltogether (because the coil is locked in place by the magnetic field) but would not induce interference - because its the changes in the field that make up the signal, not the field per se.
The mic would have terrible sound though with its main opening blocked by the magnet.
@@andrewholdaway813 They only came out in the same order this time. They did say that during their tests they came up in different orders.
“After four or five times somebody would have noticed!”
LOL
Oh no... I opened a Monk video. Now I have to spend the whole week watching clips of this show...again.
I feel your pain 😊
It's worse for me. I have to find the full length episodes...clips won't satisfy the craving!
@@justsad-1392just don't watch the movie, whatever you do
"Don't insult us!"
She says as she actively insults them.
Obviously any sane person would blame Natalie and the captain because of the evidence. But her attitude makes me cringe.
Very common in real-life and fictional portrayals; so nice to see pompous pricks identify themselves.
That magnet was far, far, far too distant for the field to have any effect on the balls. Further, other balls could randomly be chosen in between as normal - there's no mechanism for preventing that.
How many gauss?
The pressure was lowered in the stir bowl so no balls bounced quite high enough to get into the sucker; the magnet helped the rigged balls get just enough higher that they would be engaged by the sucker. It took some careful tuning and they managed to do it so it completely didn't look like that was happening but hey, teevee puts on ten pounds.
Not only that, why would a ball with magnetic paint first travel downwards, away from the magnet, to get to the bottom of the exit tube when it is far more likely to rise to the top amongst all the other balls around the tube and never get picked?
MONK: Teaching you to rig a lottery in... 5 complicated steps.
I'm sure the Lotteries hire a few people who come up with ways to cheat the system, so they can make sure it doesn't happen. I.e. the winning balls travel along a track, and there is a magnet to the side to grab any magnetic balls, a fully-transparent tube so people can see there isn't a hidden ball, scales along the path to make sure the ball is the right weight, aso.
Of course the easy one is to make sure you don't leave behind a hat with a recognizable logo on it.
5 steps that would definitely not work. That coil would ruin the microphone it's attached to, be incredibly hot, and drag in nearby magnetic objects trying to pull on such an incredibly small amount of metal. They'd discover it while trying to replace the microphone.
Lowkey Stottlemeyer had the funniest lines in the series
he's my darling .
That last line was perfect "you have the right to remain silent. I will if you will" lmao
Lol Randy didn't get a pair of shades, but everyone else is wearing them:) "You're going to be wearing some numbers"
I love the way Monk let's Natalie hug him, considering he more than likely has a mild case of haphephobia (fear or discomfort of being touched). Shows he truly cares for her😊
Yeah. Like the way he would catch her if she tripped. He's not a monster.
@@vancemccarthy2554 He's a good man, just a little twisted in the head. But I say he gets a pass on it, given what he's been through
Monk actually has according to what I can gather over 300+ different phobias as well as OCD. Even with all that he is able to solve cases with his genius IQ purely cause his caring and compassion overrides his fears.
@@therabbits69 Actually, a lot of times, he's able to solve the crimes BECAUSE of his OCD
@@kittenclysm116 I know. I was just mentioning how many different phobias he has.
He's been looking at a sad little picture of a boat on a wall 🤣
For 11 years
His wife left him
And his girl is in prison
"Looks like you painted yourself into a corner."
"Randy!"
I like this. You set up the beginning mystery and shows the ending. Good times
Fun fact(s)... no matter how much metal is in the paint it is an extremely thin layer and thus not a lot of material for a magnet to pull against, so it's not going to experience any noticeable magnetic attraction at a distance of 2+ feet to an electromagnet that small because the attraction decreases with the cube of the distance, making for a force so minuscule as to be effectively non-existent from that range.
Makes for a good show trick, but doesn't hold up to scrutiny.
"You really showed a lot of balls, Billy."
its entertaining watching randy trying to come up with a catchphrase
0:13 is very much the lead up to "Monk Solves 9-11"
Ridiculous to think that the investigator would bring over the suspects to the scene on the crime and spill his guts about all the evidence they have against them.
This is basic hollywood logic
Stottlemeyer and Natalie could sue them for exactly what the other guys claimed to have happened to them
God I love Randy lmao "We got your numbers... number. We got your number. Numbers?"
"Looks like you painted yourself in to a corner."
"Randy..."
I love how this guy goes out of his way to frame a police captain and the lotto girl, When a simpler solution was to bring a third collaborator In who could turn the magnet off for him. Then they would double cross the third person by poisoning them. Maybe he framed them out of spite.
Of course it was for spite; Natalie got him fired
Just curious did they explain how they framed the captain and Natalie?
@@gregjenkinson7512 I don't think so.
@@gregjenkinson7512 It wasn't shown here, but the killer bought a winning ticket (since he knew it would win) and switched it with the captain's ticket in his locker at the police station.
So wait, Leland legit picked the numbers drawn but didn't get the money? What a bite.
No, he didn't choose them. The ticket was planted on him.
he didn't, it was planted on him. The whole thing was a scam to pin the 'cheating' on someone else, someone Natalie knew, and to get the lawsuit money.
The ticket was a plan B to get rid of Natalie and have her framed for the Fraud and Kessler’s murder.
Because he got Fired a few days before the Super Jackpot drawing.
Shouldn't Leland sue the show for their employee doing this to him?
You painted yourself into a corner. Good one Randy
Randy trying to defend the captain but actually obliterating him is everything 🤣🤣
Lol in movies, tv shows, or video games, the tv news is always timed so conveniently 😂
Poor Billy didn’t even have the chance to show the girls his ‘Oh Face’.
5:42 What makes these scenes for me is the sunglasses. Why doesn't Randy get one?
"I guess he doesn't have the balls."
I noticed he wears at the beginning and then he takes them off 😾
Probably because a lot of what he does, being stupid and confused, he does with facial expressions.
"You have the right to remain silent..."
"I will if you will..."
🤣🤣🤣
So shouldn't the lottery people now be worried about being sued by the Captain and Natale of accusing them of cheating, threatened with jail, and the fact someone else who actually did the cheating was going to be given a settlement?
I really liked this show but I would have liked it better if they showed the aftermath of the arrest, such as the lottery people apologizing, and whether stottlemeyer got any of the prize or even a settlement.
so technically the captain could sue the lottery guys for the full amount
4:50 The one who stood up is a total stunner
Lord have mercy
4:25 i just love that smile.
2:17 Examined the WHAT?! 😂😂😂
randy & natalie needed to start a detective agency together call it dumb and dumberer 😂
4:52 as the girl in pink gets up and leave watch the detective and captain both stare at her rear. Good subtle bit staying in character lol
It's so funny how Natalie says to turn on the news to any channel on a video uploaded today of all days
On 9/11 I called home from work which I never do. I told the wife, just turn the TV on, what channel? any channel.
@@j.dragon651 the same thing my child’s dad told me. It was definitely on any channel
Since the invention of the television detective, actors can turn on a television and it will automatically display the correct, related scene.
7:06 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 get him Stottlemeyer
im glad to see this show getting popular again. was so fun
"you cheated!! we found a cheating device!!"
ok you found evidence SOMEONE cheated, wheres the evidence she put that devide there
"....."
yeah if i was natalie id get myself a lawyer and get another lottery winning out of them
It's revealed that the six lucky numbers had metallic paint rather than acrylic paint which resulted in them being always pulled. While the investigators zero in on who they consider to be the obvious suspects, leave it to the Magic Monk to point out that the original lotto girl had metallic paint on her fingers.
I, too, watched the video.
Randy puns was the best. 😂
DONT insult you?!
You didn’t think for a second how this anonymous call knew this?
NO
HE JUST BLAMES IT ON THEM
Just a thought, if the magnet was strong enough to pull the balls up the tube, wouldn't they fly out of the hole in the other tube to then cling to the magnet?
No because it was just enough to pull them up when they were being bounced around by the air. No air jets = not enough pull.
Or if they had just lowered the microphone so the six balls came up to the top of the tumbler.
The whole setup was writers-room imagination that had multiple flaws with the logic.
Hey shhhhh 🤫
My thought is even if it only pulled those up, wouldn't there still be a chance other numbers came up? Nothing stopped them so even if it increased the chances of those numbers there still should have been other numbers.
I think Natalie changed after this. She was less obsessed with money and pestering Monk about her pay.
Don't know if demanding to get paid for your services should be called "pestering"
@@txxxx0 it would be if you march in on a crime scene to demand for your pay.
TBF he's super cheap, and he wasn't covering her work expenses.
And on Monk paints his masterpiece Natalie refused to receive $2K for a painting she didn't like
Perfomance doesn't get much better than acting like you don't like hugging Traylor Howard :)
I must be missing something. How did he "frame" the cop? How did he arrange for the cop to buy a ticket with those numbers? EDIT: Oh, and, once such cheating was discovered NEITHER player could collect the winnings, since the drawing was not legitimate. That would be a tough break for the "honest person," but they could hardly give that person all that money, over all the other players, just because he lucked out on getting the numbers the "real cheater" used. No way can they do anything other than invalidate that drawing.
badguy planted the ticket on him the good guy was a loto buyer so he buys a lot of tickets and didnt notice one more slipped in then the bad guy gave a anonymous tip the bad guys settled out of court as the loto dosent want it known someone cheated there game to avoid a bad reputation
@@alfonsoalonzo Should have honestly got the money, cashed it, then got the HELL out. Somewhere like Argentina. He wouldn't have much time, but he would have enough to book a 1 day flight in somewhere like nevada had he started traveling instantly. Especially if he booked like three flights at different times, in different areas. Force the police to guess.
@@roetemeteor my guy this comment is almost a year old
Ah yes, the old "turn on the news" trope. Exactly what you need to see will currently be showing on the television
Billy will be willing to talk after a 5 minutes in the squad car with Randy.
I love monk !
I remember binge watching durn covid show was hilarious, smart & touching & sometimes not touching 😂
! Great great show 10/10
Massive plot hole: how did you fake a second winning lottery ticket to frame someone? If it's so easy to fake a second winning ticket, just fake one for yourself.
The actor portraying the lottery official is also on Blue Bloods.
I like how he wipe his mouth even when he hasn't actually eaten anything.
like my darling Leland tells sharona when they go to penthouse " I'm married not dead 😂
So, they think "After a thorough investigation, we found out this random blonde girl we just hired has a connection to one of the winners! She also had access to the equipment! She must be guilty!" but never stopped to think "Does this random blonde girl we hired even know HOW to rig up an electromagnet? Or has the skill needed to paint the balls PERFECTLY so no one noticed? If she still had access to the studio, why didn't she turn off the electromagnet? How did NO ONE see the new hostess we hired tinkering with the equipment, as it would take A WHILE to rig all that up?"
Mono surprisingly looks classy with sunglasses
Monk vs Buffalo bill.
Who'd win and how'd awkward would it be?
Oh mate 😂 you and your cats are so funny, ours are just as weird and cute too ❤
0:03 Did Monk actually throw what would now be trash on the floor, or is there a garbage container just off frame?
Who cares
I’m sure there a trash can JUST out of frame 😊
You can see at 0:00-0:01 that there is one.
Imagine his luck that his rigging of the numbers fell on the exact number sequence he wanted.
Leland with 200million dollar haha I wonder what he'd do with it
I hate the trope in tv/movies where characters are told to turn on the news and , when they do, it’s always magically at the beginning of the report. It’s not mid-sentence, it’s not mid-report. It’s always just at the beginning where no info has been missed. I hate that plot convenience.
Me: "Bro, magnets"
* *Watches* *
Me: "Nice"
Natalie just walked into Monk's house and Monk didn't hear her enter 😖
5:40
Billy: YOU THINK I RIGGED THE SUPER JACKPOT?
Me: MR. MONK, NATALIE, AND THE POLICE DO NOT THINK…THEY KNOW THAT YOU RIGGED THE SUPER JACKPOT BILLY.
🎰 💴 🕵🏻♂️👩🏼 👮🏼♂️👮🏻♂️🤨
Happy Birthday, Tony Shalhoub! :)
"any channel". imagine if monk had turned it to a cooking channel.
3:46 Natalie isn’t even that smart enough to build that. She is an assistant
when the police say "we've investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing"
Monk is so on a hit list for shoveing the rigged lotto
So if Natalie knew the other person and not Stottlemeyer, they'd revoke the other guy's winnings and settle with Stottlemeyer?
Did they ever issue a formal apology to Natalie and Stottlemeyer for acusing them?
I know, they seemed so smug to them especially the lady to Natalie
The game was rigged so nobody wins.
Also, what they didn't show here was stottlmyer didn't buy his winning ticket, the rigger bought the ticket and slipped it in win stottlemyer's tickets.
@@MrYfrank14 True, but I feel like they could maybe sue for defamation if they accused them of anything publicly during the episode. She could sue for any missing wages since she was obviously fired. There is also the possibility of suing for pain and suffering, though all of these possibilities would depend on how much time had passed since the news broadcast went out.
If nothing else though, they could push for a public apology and likely get that.
@@LucianDevine - agreed, they could sue for damages caused by being accused. I dont think the people who were accusing them had the power of arrest. So they had no right to accuse anyone. All they could do was notify the police, or whoever has the authority charge them, to investigate the matter .
Refusing to pay them, but settling with the other winner, pretty much proves her case. The correctthing to do was not oay anybody untill an investigation was conducted. Or just void the game and nobody wins.
This feels like an awfully light crew for arresting two known murderers.
This is stupid. They could easily verify where were sold winning tickets. Stottlemeyer had 10 tickets and wasn´t strange that one was sold on different location?
