Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Dog
Captain Stottlemeyer: Somebody tried to kill Shelby? Lieutenant Disher: Maybe he was drunk. You know, he was just turning around. Adrian Monk: No, no, it was deliberate. [covering Shelby's ears] He tried to run her down. He wasn't interested in me. He was definitely after Shelby. Lieutenant Disher: [whispers] Maybe he doesn't like dogs. Adrian Monk: How could anyone not like it? Captain Stottlemeyer: What reason would anybody possibly have? Adrian Monk: I don't know. I don't know, but it's got to be connected to Amanda castle. She disappeared a week and a half ago. Now, tonight, somebody tries to kill her dog. It can't be a coincidence. Captain Stottlemeyer: Was it the guy, Steven Dewitt?
