Lieutenant Disher: Oh, hey, I, uh, I hear you're dating a friend of mine. Natalie Teeger. [puts hand on Polanski's shoulder]
Dr. Polanski: Oh, yeah, she's amazing. But I don't think it's gonna happen. Well, she reacted pretty badly when I told her I used to have leprosy.
Lieutenant Disher: [takes hand off Polanski's shoulder] Really? She couldn't handle it, huh? Some people.
Dr. Polanski: Actually, I-I've been trying to reach her to give her a heads up. I think Derek Bronson lied to her. I mean, he told her he's been living on Camino Island. But I checked this morning, and it turns out the leper colony there has been closed for two years.
Lieutenant Disher: Really?
Dr. Polanski: I mean, maybe that guy wasn't really Bronson. I mean, all those bandages.
Lieutenant Disher: Well, no, I mean, the wife met him. It's funny, though. We- We're working on another case, missing persons. We were gonna talk to Monk about it. We found a makeup kit and a book on skin diseases. Huh. I think I'm gonna stop by and have a chat with the wife. Thanks, Doc.
Dr. Polanski: Can I come with you? If- If- If Natalie is in trouble, I'd just, I'd like to be there.
Lieutenant Disher: Yeah, sure.
Dr. Polanski: Oh, that's great. Thank you.
Lieutenant Disher: Why don't we, uh, take separate cars?
Dr. Polanski: Randy, I'm not contagious.
Lieutenant Disher: No, that's not what I meant. Is that what you thought I meant?
Dr. Polanski: I mean, is that what you... Seemed like that.
