Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Kid
Dr. Kroger: All right, so what, you you you threw the ransom money to the wrong man? Adrian Monk: That's right. Dr. Kroger: Does that happen a lot? Adrian Monk: Oh yeah, more than you'd think. Dr. Kroger: Really? Adrian Monk: No, okay? Okay, no. It's... It's unprecedented. Dr. Kroger: All right, so so, what what happens now? Adrian Monk: Mrs. Carlyle gave me permission to call the Captain in. He recovered the ransom money. The kidnappers called back two hours later, thank God, and they're gonna set up another drop.
