Quote from Captain Stottlemeyer in Mr. Monk and the Three Julies
Captain Stottlemeyer: What the hell happened? It was only two miles. Natalie: I took a short cut. I cut across the creek. Captain Stottlemeyer: There's no bridge across the creek. Natalie: I know. Captain Stottlemeyer: There's no bridge across the creek. Natalie: Yes, I know. Captain Stottlemeyer: There's no bridge across the creek. Natalie: Captain, I am sorry. I will pay for everything. Captain Stottlemeyer: No, it's okay. It's insured. Lieutenant Disher: Yeah, remember, sir, you did say that any parent would have done the same thing. Captain Stottlemeyer: Uh-huh. I think I need to be alone.
