Complete story — includes the ending
A sanitation union boss is found dead in his office during a citywide garbage strike. Although Monk wants to call the case a suicide so the union will go back to work, Natalie persuades him to follow the evidence and investigate it as a murder, prolonging the strike and putting the mayor ( Chi McBride ) at risk of being indicted. Guest appearances by David DeLuise and Alice Cooper.
