Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Magician
Adrian Monk: The night Kevin was killed, you were in the theater. I saw you backstage. Karl Torini: What? Really? Adrian Monk: You were dressed as a maintenance man, weren't you? Karl Torini: Either you're mistaken. Or you're bluffing. I was 300 miles away. And I can prove it. Natalie: All right, why did you have Kevin work for you that night? Karl Torini: Well, as I explained to the police, I was leaving town, I needed someone to fill in, I'd seen Kevin before and I thought he was... quite wonderful. Natalie: Ha. Adrian Monk: Okay, you know we saw Kevin's act. He was dreadful. God rest his soul.
