While vacationing in Mexico, Chip Rosetti, the son of a close friend of the mayor of San Francisco, dies in what appears to be a skydiving accident. Coroner Dr. Madero (Jorge Cervera Jr.) throws a spanner in the works by declaring that Chip wasn't killed by the fall: He was drowned! Despite his reluctance to travel in a country where "Don't Drink the Water" is a way of life, Monk (Tony Shalhoub) honors the mayor's request to investigate Chip's demise--and soon becomes a candidate for murder himself. Guest stars Tony Plana and David Norona are amusingly cast as a pair of local police officers who come off as precise Mexican equivalents of Monk's old friends Captain Stottlemeyer and Lieutenant Disher. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The firebombing of a shop owned by Arabs has the odious aroma of a post-9/11 hate crime. Investigating the kidnapping of a baby from a hospital, the detectives follow the trail of clues to the infant's father. Andy (Dennis Franz) offers to partner up with Eddie Gibson (John O'Donohue) and resumes his relationship with Gibson's niece Cynthia (Juliana Donald). Valerie (Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon) and Baldwin (Henry Simmons) try to bring "spontaneity" to their romance. And Connie (Charlotte Ross), anxious to contact the daughter whom she put up for adoption years earlier, covertly places the girl under surveillance. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
