It was on my first email.
Here it is again:
MONSOON=# explain delete from scenario where id='1099';
                                  QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using scenario_pkey on scenario  (cost=0.00..3.14 rows=1
width=6)
   Index Cond: (id = 1099::bigint)
(2 rows)

MONSOON=# explain delete from scenario where id='1023';
                                  QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using scenario_pkey on scenario  (cost=0.00..3.14 rows=1
width=6)
   Index Cond: (id = 1023::bigint)
(2 rows)

Thanks,
J
