Lieutenant Disher: What's that?
Captain Stottlemeyer: It's cellophane. Monk's idea.
Adrian Monk: It's to protect the cake. Makes it more fun.
Lieutenant Disher: For what?
Adrian Monk: Well, when you blow out the candles, there's always a little, what I call, spittle.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Actually a pretty good idea. It's a birthday cake spittle shield. You know, that's the first idea that you've had that I might actually consider investing in.
Adrian Monk: Thank you.
Natalie: Make a wish. [Disher takes a long, thoughtful moment]
Captain Stottlemeyer: Blow out the candles, lieutenant.
[As Randy blows out the candles, the flames spread to the cellophane cover which ignites. As Randy tries to blow out the fire, Stottlemeyer uses a fire extinguisher.]
Adrian Monk: Hey, happy birthday.
Captain Stottlemeyer: I think I might reconsider that investment.
