Adrian Monk Quote #195
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Red-Headed Stranger
Captain Stottlemeyer: Why would you wanna kill Sonny Cross?
Adrian Monk: Revenge. He was driving the car that killed your parents and left you blind in Tampa. You knew he toured a lot. You waited for him to come through San Francisco, and eventually he did. They announced on the radio that Willie Nelson and his tour manager would be stopping by the station. So you got there early and put a note on the door. Then you waited. Before you killed him, did you tell him who you were?
Wendy Mass: Yes.
Adrian Monk: And you made sure that the second shot was from 20 feet away, a crime no blind woman could have committed. But then Willie Nelson showed up in that alley. You didn't count on that. You couldn't just leave the scene, so... You had to pretend to be a witness.
Wendy Mass: Jason Cross served a year and a half. Vehicular manslaughter? That wasn't justice. What I did last week, that was justice.
