Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Employee of the Month
Adrian Monk: What's, what's this? Captain Stottlemeyer: That, my friend, is the evidence room. Bin number four. That's where your pal said that he put all of the cocaine. As you can plainly see, bin number four is empty. Adrian Monk: Okay, wait. Some of these items were sold at a police auction a few days later? Captain Stottlemeyer: Yep. That's routine. Adrian Monk: Three televisions, one boy's bicycle, two computers. Captain Stottlemeyer: So? Adrian Monk: Wait. Wait. Look. Look. Look at this bicycle. Sharona: Well, that's a girl's bike. There's no metal bar. Adrian Monk: But when it was sold two days later, it was a boy's bike. Somebody added that metal tube. Captain Stottlemeyer: Do we know who bought that boy's bike? Lieutenant Disher: Yeah, it's right here. Item 422, boy's bike, sold to Clara Toplin. Captain Stottlemeyer: Toplin? Clara Toplin used to be the properties clerk here. She quit about four years ago. Lieutenant Disher: That's right.
