Disciple: Please remove your shoes.
Natalie: Oh.
Adrian Monk: Oh. Here's the thing. I'd rather not, if that's okay?
Disciple: There are no exceptions, Mr. Monk. Even the Master's feet are bare.
Adrian Monk: I understand. Here's the thing. I'm a little shy. I never... I never go barefoot.
Natalie: It's true, I've never seen his feet.
Adrian Monk: I've never seen my feet. For all I know, I could have 18 toes. [Disciple #2 doesn't laugh] He's good.
Disciple: So, you are refusing.
Adrian Monk: Not just that. Uh, I would like to ask all of you, as a favor, as a personal favor, to put your shoes back on. If that's not too much trouble.
