Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Sleeping Suspect
Adrian Monk: Well, we know who did it and we know why. We just don't know how. Captain Stottlemeyer: Monk, again, he's in a coma. Adrian Monk: He's the guy. Captain Stottlemeyer: In 20 seconds, Agent Grooms is gonna come walking through that door, and he's gonna ask me what I think. Give me something else, for the love of God. Lieutenant Disher: Okay, wait. I have an idea. Maybe he had an accomplice. Captain Stottlemeyer: Yes. Somebody else mailed the damn thing. Sharona: Why not? I already had that idea. Tell him. Adrian Monk: There was no accomplice. Why would Brian Babbage hire one? He didn't know he was gonna be in a coma. Sharona: It's not exactly something you can plan. Adrian Monk: All right. Anyway. Why would an accomplice bother to go through with it? There was no reason to. The guy who hired him was in a coma. Captain Stottlemeyer: All right, so, Brian built the bomb. And then, Brian mailed the bomb. By himself. Adrian Monk: That's right. Captain Stottlemeyer: While he was in a coma. Adrian Monk: You gotta admit. It's a pretty good alibi. It's rock-solid. Captain Stottlemeyer: Monk, I have known fifteen thousand criminals in my life time, here's what they all have in common: They're conscious! Adrian Monk: Nonetheless. Captain Stottlemeyer: Is your shrink coming back soon?
