Critical analysis
The title of this episode is a
pun , alluding to the musicianThelonious Monk . This is reminiscent of an earlier identical allusion in Terry Pratchett's novelSoul Music in theDiscworld series, where Glod Glodsson is asked whether he would rather be remembered as the greatest horn player in the world or as some felonius monk.Thelonious Monk was however a pianist and composer.See also
