It was a burglary gone sour - We believe it was a burglary gone sour. She walked in, she surprised him, he panicked. ( It was a cop who said this) - No, no, no. This was no burglary. - It wasn't? - He tried to make it look like one, but this guy was cold as ice. This is a scene from on episode of TV series "Monk". I didn't understand the phrase "it was a burglary gone SOUR". I looked at the dictitionary and the defentition for SOUR was this: feeling or expressing resentment, dissappointment, or anger. Does this mean that cop though it was simply a fight over feelings of angry and man killed that woman because of accident. You know when someone has a fight and punch another hi didn't want to kill but he killed. Does cop thought so?
