Quote from Adrian Monk

Truck Driver: Hey. What are you doing? You can't ride back here. Does this look like a Greyhound bus to you?
Adrian Monk: No, buses have windows and seats.
Truck Driver: Hey, it was a rhetorical question. Are you all right? Look, buddy, it's not me. But if I get caught with a civilian back here, I could lose my insurance. Listen. Do you have any money?
Adrian Monk: No, I'm sorry.
Truck Driver: Wait, wait, wait. Here. Buy yourself some dinner. [hands Monk a wrinkled note] What are you doing?
Adrian Monk: Smoothing it out.
Truck Driver: Why?
Adrian Monk: I don't know.

Debbie Barnett: I'll just bring you ours.

Quote from Adrian Monk

Adrian Monk: I like it.
Debbie Barnett: See, you have a new favorite brand. It's a big day for you.
Adrian Monk: Yeah.
Debbie Barnett: Now, I'm just curious. Why do you have everything on different plates? Is that like a religious thing?
Adrian Monk: I guess so.
Debbie Barnett: Is that why you wash your hands every two minutes?
Adrian Monk: Probably.
Debbie Barnett: Well, to each his own.

Quote from Adrian Monk

Cora: Now what?
Adrian Monk: I'm... I'm afraid.
Cora: You're up two feet, Jerry. You can do this. That's why you became a roofer, to get over your fear of heights. And it worked. You're world famous. Jerry, you're the king of all the roofers. Now up you go.
Adrian Monk: Yes, dear.

Quote from Adrian Monk

Adrian Monk: You said you had a picture.
Man: You've been looking for a six fingered man?
Adrian Monk: Yeah. Where did you get this?
Man: Took it myself. I met him in Vancouver, Canada. He was drunk. He was talking about killing your wife with a car bomb.
Adrian Monk: What's his name?
Man: The picture's free, Mr. Monk. The name's gonna cost you.
Adrian Monk: W, wait, wait a minute. This sixth finger.
Man: Yeah, what about it?
Adrian Monk: No hair on the knuckle. This photograph has been doctored and the license plate is not Canadian. You can't help me at all, can you?

Quote from Adrian Monk

Roger Zisk: Hey, excuse me. Hey. Hey, don't ponce my ride. What are you doing?
Adrian Monk: It's just... It's not quite straight.
Roger Zisk: What part of "Don't ponce my ride" don't you understand?
Adrian Monk: Ponce... Most of.... All of it really.
Roger Zisk: Look, man, this is a BMW 5 series, all right? I don't let my wife touch this car. And she bought me this car. You think I'm gonna let you touch it? [Monk keeps adjusting the mirror] Buddy, what is your problem?
Adrian Monk: I don't know. I can't... I can't stop. I don't know what's wrong with me, but it's almost there, just this...
Roger Zisk: Hey, how about I just rip you a new one?
Adrian Monk: Uh, no. No, no. I don't need a new one.
Roger Zisk: Where you from?
Adrian Monk: I don't know.
Roger Zisk: Well, how about you do this town a favor. You figure out where it is you're from and get your sorry ass back there.
Adrian Monk: Okay. Thank you.

Captain Stottlemeyer: Talk to those guys. Get a list of their regulars. I want a list of all the truckers that park here over the night.
