Quote from Lieutenant Disher in Mr. Monk Takes a Punch
Lieutenant Disher: Mister Regis, Ray, Machine, do you have any enemies? Or have you received any threats lately? Ray Regis: Not lately. Five years ago when I lost the title, it seemed like everybody wanted my head. Captain Stottlemeyer: That was a tough night. I thought you had him in the fifth. Ray Regis: Yeah. It wasn't my night. Lieutenant Disher: It's a tough racket. I do a little boxing myself. Light middleweight. Captain Stottlemeyer: When did you box? Lieutenant Disher: Remember the benefit for the police athlete league? Took Sergeant Mulroney in nine rounds. TKO. Left uppercut. Captain Stottlemeyer: Stan Mulroney? He retired 12 years ago. We called him "Pops." Lieutenant Disher: Yeah, that's right. He was older than me. He was experienced. Wiley. Captain Stottlemeyer: He had a cane. Lieutenant Disher: And he used it.
