Girl: Have you ever caught a real killer?
Adrian Monk: Oh, yes. Oh, yes. I've caught a lot of killers. Some killers are very smart. And some are very powerful. Some are even famous. They don't think they will ever be caught. [looks to Steve Wagner] But in the end, they, they're always caught. And I'll tell you why. Because the police can make mistakes. I make mistakes all the time. But, uh... [Monk notices a laser pointer dot on his jacket] But see, a killer has to be, uh... A killer has to be perfect. And, uh, nobody's perfect. The first police officers appeared in Ancient Rome in 200 B.C. They were called Centurions. In many ways, they were like our modern police force. It was their job to... To... To enforce laws and to to maintain order. They were, uh, chosen for their their loyalty and their courage. [Monk rips his jacket off as he freaks out about the laser pointers]
