1st Panel Member: Sorry we're late. Have you been waiting long?
Adrian Monk: 11 years. [smiles]
1st Panel Member: Are you all right?
Adrian Monk: Yes, sir. I'm just smiling.
1st Panel Member: Adrian, I just want to say that we really appreciate the work you've done, unofficially as a consultant over the last eight years. We've been reading your case file and talking with your colleagues. It's a very impressive record.
2nd Panel Member: I worked on the raincoat strangler case. We worked that case for nine months without a lead. I still don't know how you did it.
Adrian Monk: I got lucky. Actually, it was more than just luck. I talked to the suspect, and I noticed there were a few discrepancies in his alibi.
2nd Panel Member: It was quite impressive. It was dazzling, actually.
Adrian Monk: Impressive, dazzling, I'll take either one.
