Mr. Monk and the End - Part I - S8-E15
Plot hole: When Randy tells Captain Stottlemeyer that the killer shot the train station announcer and took his jacket and ID, the microphone in the room is still active and everyone in the station hears Randy's conversation. If that's the case, then why didn't everyone in the station hear the gunshot? Even if the killer used a silencer, he would have made noise taking the announcer's jacket and changing his disguise, which would sound like a struggle over the open mic anyway, and it would make no sense to turn it on after killing the man. (00:29:00 - 00:30:00)

Factual error: When announcing Trudy's daughter is in Monterey County, they say that is only 20 minutes away, yet they are in San Francisco. Would take 3 times that long to get there.
