Something didn't fit!
Monk tried to push away the connection to Biederbeck...but it was no use. Everything in him was telling him that Biederbeck was indeed connected to the murder of this young woman.
They had been standing around asking Gertrude everything she knew about Carmen...in the end it only left them with more questions and little to no answers.
It was in one of those moments that Randy was giving his bizarre idea of what happened, and the Captain trying to entertain Randy and his 'idea', that Monk again stared at the picture.
Suddenly...he realized something.
"Trudy...you said Carmen had a boyfriend that left for Brazil..."
"Yeah. But that was years ago."
Turning his head he motioned for the captain to come closer.
Leland approached with a furrowed brow as Monk pointed something out in the picture.
"It looks like she has an indent on her finger," Monk pointed to the hand, "like she had an engagement ring or wedding band on her hand."
Leland's eyebrows furrowed even more as he examined the photo, barely seeing anything at all.
"You can see she has an indent on her finger?" Leland asked curiously as he bent his head even more, trying to see the evidence that Monk was pointing out.
"So..." Randy began, not really knowing what came after. Only knowing that not completing a sentence caused Monk to finish it for you. Which he did.
"So that means that Carmen either recently was or was going to be married."
And that...became the clue to unlock all the rest.
Natalie couldn't help but let the tears fall. She hadn't expected to feel this way. Then again the idea of actually being pregnant had only hit her less than an hour ago.
Now she was mourning the loss of a child that had never been - in the arms of a woman that she had considered her enemy not but an hour ago.
Sharona slowly pulled away from the embrace she had Natalie in.
Natalie's eyes were cast down as tears dropped to the floor.
Sharona let out a huge sigh as one hand continued to rub Natalie's shoulder.
"Are you ok?" Sharona asked quietly.
Natalie couldn't raise her head to look into Sharona's eyes, so she just nodded her head fractionally.
"I don't know why I'm so sad...Adrian isn't ready for a child. He isn't even ready for a relationship." Natalie said the words with a hint of anger and sadness twinging the words.
Sharona again let out a huge sigh. Slowly a smile came to her lips.
"I donno...you managed to do the horizontal mambo with him more than once. That's gotta mean he sees you more than a friend!"
The joke made Natalie look up at Sharona...and for the first time...Natalie laughed.
Sharona seeing that she had managed to make Natalie forget about not being pregnant continued to try to make her laugh.
"He didn't put on his bathing gloves did he?"
The joke caused both to laugh at the idea.
"He's more than capable of touching me without the gloves." Natalie said with a smirk forming on her face.
"AAAah NATALIE!" Sharona shrieked as she grimaced at the very disturbing image that entered her mind.
The look on Sharona's face of course caused Natalie to begin to laugh again.
"Are you trying to make my skin crawl?" Sharona asked as she shivered from the hebee geebies.
Natalie looked down and caressed her stomach, where she thought a new life had begun, and couldn't help but wonder just might would have happened...if it had been true.
"Have you been able to find her last known address?" Stottlemeyer asked Randy.
"No Sir. The last address she had listed was a house purchased by a couple..." Randy looks down at his desk covered with papers and shuffles some around until he finds a sticky note, "Mr. and Mrs. Donahue."
Stottlemeyer's eyes squint as he begins to think.
"When did they purchase the house?"
"Four months ago."
Both Stottlemeyer and Monk look at each other, silently communicating that it was no coincidence that the home was sold barely before Carmen's body was found.
Monk cocking his head asks a question that causes Stottlemeyer to see where he was going.
"How close did she live to the park where her body was found?"
Randy looks at Monk in mild confusion, then turns and leans towards his computer and types and clicks to find the answer Monk requested.
As Randy looks at the screen his eyes open wide.
"She lived right behind it!"
"You messed up Joey! Now because of you we've been exposed. You know Mr. Biederbeck doesn't like to be exposed. How do you think he's going to like it when I tell him why the cops will be showing up to question him?"
Joey swallowed down the sudden dry lump that was forming in his throat. He was thankful that he indeed had left when he did and was talking to the other person with his cell phone instead of face to face.
"I took care of it. Everything points to the fiance."
"Good. Because if you messed up..."
"You can count on me. I'll make sure everything goes away." Joey answered to the unspoken threat.
"See that you do." With that the line went silent.
Joey swallowed and closed his cellphone. It was time to visit an old acquaintance.
