Natalie: Did you get it?
Lieutenant Disher: [holding newspaper] Yeah, it's not in here, though. Maybe... Maybe tomorrow's.
Natalie: Well, can I see it?
Lieutenant Disher: No.
Natalie: [grabs paper] Why?
Lieutenant Disher: Because he's a critic, Natalie. Who cares what he thinks? I mean, he's probably just a frustrated actor, anyway.
Natalie: I'm too nervous. You read it.
Lieutenant Disher: Look, this is just one man's opinion.
Natalie: Read it.
Lieutenant Disher: "Last night's premiere, first-rate material, second-rate arrangements", blah, blah, blah...
Natalie: No blah, blah, blahs. [takes newspaper] Okay... "Julie Teeger's rendition of 'Away', the classic ballad, was completely forgettable. A corny, cliche-filled performance that had me begging for less. Ms. Teeger owes me four minutes of my life back."
Adrian Monk: That could mean anything.
