Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Really, Really Dead Guy
Dr. Kroger: You know it's all over the news, right? The 1:00 deadline, the Six-Way Killer... It's really frightening. Adrian Monk: I think there's more to it. I'm not sure this guy is a real serial killer. I guess it doesn't matter what I think. Dr. Kroger: Why, you're no longer on the case? Adrian Monk: Not just the case. I'll probably never get back on the force. The agent in charge made sure of that. He said there's no room for a dinosaur like me in modern law enforcement. Dr. Kroger: Well, I'm sorry. Adrian Monk: I don't know how it happened. At some point, I just got stuck. The world kept turning and changing... Microchips, cell phones, TV screen blackboards... And I didn't. I didn't change.
