Quote from Natalie in Mr. Monk and the Voodoo Curse
Natalie: You know, it's not funny. I used to laugh about it too. Lieutenant Disher: About what? Natalie: Voodoo, black magic. Adrian Monk: Wait, you can't actually believe in that stuff. Natalie: Somebody predicted that poor woman would get hit by a baseball three days before it happened. How would you explain it? Adrian Monk: Well, I mean... Maybe... Lieutenant Disher: Well, wait, I got it. Well, she walked by here every day, right? Captain Stottlemeyer: Yep. Lieutenant Disher: So maybe the killer was waiting back here behind this tree with a baseball gun. Natalie: A baseball gun? There's no such thing. Captain Stottlemeyer: Yeah, but there are pitching machines. Natalie: Okay. So how would your baseball-gun killer. Lieutenant Disher: Oh, that's a good name for him by the way. Natalie: How would he know someone would hit a home run at exactly that moment? And what happened to the other baseball? Captain Stottlemeyer: The other baseball. Natalie: It's voodoo. It's real, and it kills people.
