Mr. Monk Is Underwater - S7-E5
Factual error: Lt. Albright shows Monk and Natalie the "USS Seattle", a "Class 4 Submarine". US sub classes have names, not numbers, so she would be Los Angeles, Seawolf or Virginia class.

Mr. Monk Is Underwater - S7-E5
Factual error: Monk borrows Lt. Albright's sidearm to prove a point. All weapons on a submarine are locked in a small arms locker until needed, not carried around by officers. Further, medics are traditionally not issued firearms.

Mr. Monk Is Underwater - S7-E5
Character mistake: Commander Whitaker asks what Monk and Natalie are doing on his "ship." No submarine commander would ever refer to his vessel that way. He would refer to it as his "boat."

Chosen answer: Occasionally, people with advanced OCD's are possessed of an uncontrollable urge to simply touch various things, or press their nose/lips/etc. against them. It's no more or less sensible than the other behaviours the syndrome causes. See David Sedaris's essay "A Plague of Tics" for an hilarious look at it.
