Mr. Monk Is on the Run (2) - S6-E16
Factual error: When Captain Leland Stottlemeyer looks at the postcard that Mr. Monk sent to him, the address shown is for the city of San Francisco with a zip code of 90019. This zip code is for the city of Los Angeles. The actual zip code for the address shown, after checking with the U.S. Postal Service website, is 94105. (00:07:50)
Answer: Stottlemeyer was already upset after the phone call. He was trying to get "Kevin" (who would have to be a judge, but no further character information is given) to issue a restraining order with no evidence of needing one, except that Adrian Monk said she needs one. Kevin said he would need to "sleep on it." So it's clear they've been trying to provide protection and unable to get the results they need, which seems to be based on no one trusting Monk the way Stottlemeyer does. He's just angry that they failed to protect Linda despite all their work. Although it does feel like a scene was cut, or altered, from the show that shows the futile attempts to protect Linda which built up to his outrage.
