Quote from Captain Stottlemeyer in Mr. Monk Is the Best Man
Lieutenant Disher: I got the lab report on the car last night, no big surprise, gasoline accelerant. Captain Stottlemeyer: Gas can? Lieutenant Disher: No gas can. Captain Stottlemeyer: Witnesses? Lieutenant Disher: No witnesses. Captain Stottlemeyer: So what do you think? Lieutenant Disher: I think somebody's trying to scare you. Captain Stottlemeyer: But why? I mean, it doesn't track. If the guy wants a piece of me, if he wants to hurt me, why doesn't he come at me? What's all this cat and mouse crap?
