Episode Quotes
 
Evan Gildea: Harrison, it's Adrian Monk. He's never lost a case in his life.
Harrison Powell: Well, neither have I. This'll be great.
 
D.A. Charles Friedken: Now, did everyone review the grand jury transcripts and the follow-up reports?
Natalie: Mr. Friedken, don't worry. They can do this in their sleep.
Stottlemeyer: In fact, on at least two occasions, Lt. Disher has.
 
Adrian: Uh, this is amazing. It's perfect.
Natalie: Mr. Monk, that's a display stand. The art is out here.
Adrian: Oh. Well, that's junk.
 
Adrian: Uh, wipes. Plural. Plural wipes. Wipes.
Natalie: Okay.
Adrian: It's a dust factory in here.
Natalie: Mr. Monk, he's a sculptor. It's part of his job.
Adrian: That's no excuse.
 
Harrison Powell: Mr. Monk, are you okay?
Adrian: I'm fine.
Judge Santa Croce: You were making a noise.
Adrian: I don't think so.
Judge Santa Croce: Could you read that back, please?
Court Stenographer: Witness: The defendant removed a sheet revealing a naked eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
 
Natalie: How do you sleep at night?
Harrison Powell: Like a baby. In a really expensive bed. Thanks for asking, though.
 
Natalie: You can't say no. Well, you can, but you can't.
Adrian: I can, but I can't? I don't understand.
Natalie: You don't, but you do.
 
Harrison Powell: Do you really want to go up against me again, Former Detective Monk?
Adrian: Yes I do. I'll see you on the ball field.
Harrison Powell: The ball field?
Adrian: I've seen your curveball. I can hit it now.
Harrison Powell: Oh, I'm really looking forward to this.
Adrian: No, you're not.
 
Natalie: You're going to do great. You've seen his curveball.
Adrian: I don't even know what that means. I can't believe I'm doing this again.
Stottlemeyer: I'm proud of you, man. Your'e getting back on the horse.
Disher: Yeah, Monk, okay, a couple of suggestions. Just a thought, maybe work on not crying--I mean, not quite so much in front of the jury.
Adrian: Okay, that's a good note.
Natalie: Yeah, also, you can think "mayday" all you want, but it's probably a mistake to yell the word "mayday" from the witness stand.
Adrian: Did I do that?
Natalie: Just a couple times.
Stottlemeyer: More than a couple of times.
Adrian: I'd better write these down.
Stottlemeyer: There are no timeouts.
Natalie: Right.
Stottlemeyer: No do-overs.
Natalie: No heavy, heavy, sweating.
Stottlemeyer: No, no, no, no.
