Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Kid
Abigail Carlyle: How did you know? Natalie: We followed you. We saw you at the pay phone, and then we saw you go to the bank and make a withdrawal. You must be Daniel's brother? Jacob Carlyle: Jacob. Adrian Monk: Mrs. Carlyle, when did they kidnap your son? Abigail Carlyle: Wednesday. Feels like a year ago. Jacob Carlyle: They cut off his finger to prove that they had him and, uh, when we went to retrieve it at the park it was all roped off, and there were police everywhere. Natalie: Yes, a young boy found his finger before you got there. That's what led us to you. Abigail Carlyle: You found us from his finger?
