Adrian Monk: Where is "picture go regular"?
Captain Stottlemeyer: What are you doing?
Adrian Monk: Well, I might have missed something.
Captain Stottlemeyer: No, I'm talking about your friend Samuel. What are you doing getting his hopes up like that? You and I both know the odds against solving a two-week-old hit-and-run with virtually no evidence. Monk, it's 1,000 to 1, probably worse. Now this case, Maria Fuentes, the murdered housekeeper, this case... This case is fresh. It's piping hot. It's solvable if we act fast. Now, Randy and I are going back to the house. We gonna walk the property talk to the neighbors.
Adrian Monk: I can't help you. I'm sorry. I'm working with Samuel.
Captain Stottlemeyer: You're working with Samuel?
Adrian Monk: He lost his wife, Leland. They ran Trudy over and just kept on driving.
Captain Stottlemeyer: You mean Ansara. Trudy was your wife.
