Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk Is On the Air
Linda Riggs: I don't think he's home. Adrian Monk: [notices "Go Away" welcome mat] Did you tell him I was coming? Natalie: No, Mr. Monk, That's not for you. That's a joke. Adrian Monk: It's a joke? How- How is- How is that funny? Natalie: Well, I guess it's funny because it says the opposite of what a welcome mat would normally say. Adrian Monk: So it's an opposite joke. Natalie: Yeah, that's right. Neighbor: He's not home. I live right there. I saw him leave about two hours ago. Natalie: That's a nice dog. Neighbor: Well, thank you. Adrian Monk: That's a nice cat. Neighbor: Come on. Let's go. [Monk gestures to indicate the joke went over the neighbor's head]
