Randy Disher has been living with Monk's old assistant Sharona in Summit, NJ, working as the new Chief of Police. But when the mayor, the city manager and the majority of city council in Summit are arrested for fraud, Disher suddenly finds himself acting as mayor just as a wave of burglaries are taking place. And, in light of the scandal, Disher begins to question whether the former police chief was really killed in an accident. Looks like it's up to Monk to clean up the mess.
