Malcolm McDowell chews the screen here is a murderous fashion designer who will do anything to get his own way, and yes, even murder. Natalie's daughter has a larger role in this episode, who captures the eye of McDowell's fashion designer. Yes, quite ominous. But thankfully Monk manages to solve the murders in his trademark style. I still miss Jeff Beal's Monk theme, although the instrumental version of Randy Newman's theme that sometimes plays at the end is more bearable than the vocal version that plays in the opening. Still, I always chuckle when I recall Will Sasso's impeccable impersonation of Randy on MAD TV.
