Adrian Monk: Are you okay?
Captain Stottlemeyer: I'm waiting for the screaming to stop.
Adrian Monk: There's no screaming.
Captain Stottlemeyer: The screaming inside my head. You were in a closet in his house. He was standing right there. He obviously heard everything. Why didn't you just leave the apartment?
Adrian Monk: I tried! I told them to be cool. I actually said, "be cool."
Captain Stottlemeyer: Just step outside the house. Talk in the elevator!
Sharona: He doesn't take the elevator.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Well, we don't have a case because you tipped him off. I just got off the phone with him. It's a brick wall. They're all lawyered up.
Sharona: What about his wife?
Captain Stottlemeyer: She's not talking either.
Sharona: That's 'cause he probably threatened her.
Captain Stottlemeyer: If this is a homicide, and I believe you're right, because you always are, we're up against it. We've got nothing! We have no physical evidence!
