Captain Stottlemeyer: We've already got a primary. Get this the guy had a rival, another rapper. They'd been threatening each other for months, even wrote little ditties about each other. Guess what his name is.
Adrian Monk: Murderuss.
Captain Stottlemeyer: That's right! Is that perfect, or what? I can't wait till a jury hears that.
Adrian Monk: Well, it's only a name. Doesn't mean anything.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Murderuss? Monk, that's not a name. It's a confession. Plus, the guy has got a rap sheet like 10 miles long.
Adrian Monk: Alleged rap sheet.
Captain Stottlemeyer: No, a very real, grown-up rap sheet. I arrested the kid myself three times back when he was a hood in the 'hood. What are you, his lawyer?
Adrian Monk: I don't know. Natalie, am I his lawyer?
Natalie: No. You're his investigator. Murderuss paid us a little visit today.
Captain Stottlemeyer: He came to your house.
Natalie: He was afraid he was gonna get blamed for this, so he asked Mr. Monk to take the case.
Captain Stottlemeyer: And you said yes.
Adrian Monk: Well, so I've been told. I wasn't really there.
Captain Stottlemeyer: You did it again. When he gets nervous, he blacks out sometimes and agrees to do stuff.
Adrian Monk: God. Oh, my God, what did I do?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Well, look, maybe you're right. Maybe he's not the guy.
Adrian Monk: Of course he's the guy! His name is Murderuss. I mean, I cannot believe this is happening.
