Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Paperboy
Adrian Monk: [on the phone] Hello. Bonjour. Bonjour. Yes, I think I know who killed Madam Beaudreau. Captain Duprat: Oui, Monsieur Monk. What is your theory? Adrian Monk: I think her husband did it. Captain Duprat: Well, we suspected him from the beginning. But why did he cut off her hands? Adrian Monk: He must have used a pair of handcuffs from the museum to restrain her. Captain Duprat: I do not follow you. Adrian Monk: They were antique handcuffs very distinctive so they could easily have been traced back to him. Captain Duprat: Mon Dieu. Adrian Monk: He must have lost the key. He was desperate. He had to get them off the body. Captain Duprat: Well, that makes sense. Lafitte, why didn't I think of that? Monsieur Monk, you are a genius. Perhaps, sir, some day you will fly to Paris, and I can thank you in person. Adrian Monk: Yes. Yes, that sounds like fun. I'll check my calendar. Okay. Au revoir.
