Quote from Captain Stottlemeyer in Mr. Monk Gets Drunk
Captain Stottlemeyer: Did you find the money? Natalie: Not yet. Dr. David Sobin: He says there was a conspiracy, and we all took the money. I say this character Gruber junked his own car, took the cash, and hitchhiked to Mexico. Can you prove I'm wrong? Captain Stottlemeyer: Nope. He's right. Without a body, we don't have a case. Monk... [Monk snores] Monk! Okay, um I guess you're all free to go. Lieutenant, take everybody's address. Make sure it's a valid I.D. Lieutenant Disher: Yes, sir. If everybody can just follow me. We're sorry about the inconvenience.
