Some Challenging Monk Trivia

40 Upvotes

Dear fellow Monk-ophiles,

As you have probably seen, there are not any very challenging Monk trivia questions online, so I put together a few myself! I'm pretty sure they're all correct, but if not please let me know. These are what was on the top of my head, if you have any good ones put them in the comments and I can add them. As the greatest detective in the universe would say, you'll thank me later. I thought about adding which episode the answer is found, maybe later
