"Mr. Monk Meets His Dad" is the second Christmas episode of the USA Network drama Monk, aired as the ninth episode of its fifth season.
Summary[]
It's Christmas time and Monk gets a call to go to the station. When he arrives, he is told that his father, whom he hasn't seen in 39 years, has been arrested. He learns the man is not the one he was told he was; that he is a trucker and that he asked Monk to come to the station to help him get out of jail. It seems he has a lot of deliveries to make. The gang convinces Monk to go with him and while on the road, Monk lets out some of the pent up feelings he has. But he also wonders why he is taking such an unusual route like he's going back and forth when he could be going straight to his destination, but his father's boss insists that he follow his route.
