Full Version: Trudy's Birthday
USA Network Forums > USA Network Originals > Monk
ArmstrongMonkWatchers
Our family adopted a Golden from a rescue group, we already had a shepard mix dog that is named Adrian. We named the new Golden Trudy, but since she was found on the streets, we don't know her real birthday. If someone knows Trudy's birthday on the show, we will make our Trudy's birthday the same.

Thanks in advance.

You may have stumped the band on this one. Don't know if they ever established a birth date for the character of Trudy. If they have, someone in here will surely know. Good luck.

You´ll find the answer on Liv´s wonderful Monk Timeline page:

Excerpt:

QUOTE
Trudy was born in 1962 and died in 1997, as was written on her tombstone. Adrian said in ‘Dale The Whale’ that she was 34 years old. She was born on Oct. 10th (or possibly Jan. 10th). In ‘Mr. And Mrs. Monk’, Adrian was in Dr. Kroger’s office, the clock said Tue 11. In 2005, the 11th fell on Tuesday only in January and October. Adrian said the day before was Trudy’s birthday.....read more


Have lot of fun with your "Trudy"

Cute idea.
Though it's never been confirmed on the show, and will very likely be proven wrong at some later date, I have guesstimated a birthdate of October 10th for Trudy's birthday, based on the fact that in Mrs. Monk, while Adrian is in Dr. Kroger's office, the clock he is looking at says Tue 11th on it, then he goes into the office to talk to Dr. Kroger, and said the day before had been Trudy's birthday. The eleventh fell on Tuesday only twice that year, in January and October. I don't think it was January for several reasons, like they went to a barbecue at the captain's house the next day (which would have been Columbus day if it was Oct), and there was a calender on the wall behind Janice Ellinghouse's desk that showed July 2005. One could assume that she became ill or died some time in July, so the calender hadn't been changed to reflect the passing months, but it's not very likely she would have torn off January through June of a 2005 calender as early as January of that year. But like I said, I have seen dates and things change before on the show.

BTW, hi, I'm Liv, the keeper of the increasingly futile Monk Timeline. Nice to meet you.
