Quote from Captain Stottlemeyer in Mr. Monk Gets Fired
Captain Stottlemeyer: Commissioner, hi, I was just about to call you. Commissioner Brooks: [on speaker phone] Why? To tell me how you're screwing up the case? I have a press conference tomorrow morning. What can I tell them? Do we have a suspect? Captain Stottlemeyer: Not officially, sir. We still cannot link Paul Harley to the torso. Commissioner Brooks: You can't find a single follicle or fiber? Captain Stottlemeyer: We're still at the house, sir. We're still looking. Commissioner Brooks: It's probably right under your nose. Where did you get your badge, captain? In a box of Cracker Jacks? Are you a police captain or not, hmm? Captain Stottlemeyer: [chuckles] Yes, I am, sir. Commissioner Brooks: Then act like one, or I'll find someone who will. Captain Stottlemeyer: Yes, sir, thank you. I'll talk to you later. Lieutenant Disher: I'm not even sure that was the commissioner.
