Adrian Monk Quote #425
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Paperboy
Adrian Monk: You recognize these numbers?
Sharona: No. Will you slow down? I'm in heels.
Adrian Monk: Well, I knew I'd heard these numbers before. I called Lieutenant Disher, and I asked him to check his notes just to make sure. Remember when Kevin Dorfman came downstairs after the murder? He started reeling off his old addresses. Sharona, Kevin won the lottery on Thursday night. 17, 26, 34. These are his old house numbers. He played the same numbers every week. A lot of people do.
Sharona: Okay, wait, wait, wait. Kevin won $43 million? Why didn't he say anything?
Adrian Monk: Because he didn't know. He still doesn't. But Vicki knows. Kevin bought his lottery tickets at the Stop-N-Go every week. After awhile, Vicki and the other clerk, probably her accomplice, got to know his lucky numbers by heart. When the numbers were drawn, they realized Kevin had won. They knew he lived alone, that he didn't have many friends, and it occurred to them that maybe, just maybe, he didn't know he had won. They came up with a plan. Probably Vicki's idea.
Sharona: Why Vicki?
Adrian Monk: Because, the other guy's dead. Later, on some pretext, Vicki woke Kevin up. For a woman like her, the rest was easy. All Vicki had to do was keep Kevin distracted for a day or two. She didn't let him answer his phone. She probably unplugged the T.V. She didn't want him to see or even think about the winning lottery numbers.
Sharona: Wait, I still don't get it. Why did they kill your paperboy?
Adrian Monk: They didn't know it was my paper. They thought it was Kevin's, and they couldn't afford to let him see this. It had nothing to do with me.
Sharona: Why didn't she just steal the ticket?
Adrian Monk: The time stamp on the ticket would match the time code from the store security camera. He could prove it was his.
Sharona: They're getting married.
Adrian Monk: Exactly. That was her plan from the beginning to get him to marry her before he knew he was worth a fortune.

Quote from Adrian Monk
Dr. Kroger: Well, maybe what they're doing makes you think about Trudy, makes you miss Trudy. It's something we've never talked about, Adrian. Your physical relationship with your late wife.
Adrian Monk: I consider that a personal question.
Dr. Kroger: Yes, it is. That's what I do. I- I assume you and Trudy were intimate.
Adrian Monk: We held hands a lot. All the time. Once we woke up holding hands. We'd been holding hands the whole night.
Dr. Kroger: That's sweet. I like that. That's nice. But, Adrian, is there anything else besides the holding hands?
Adrian Monk: Ah, I think we're out of time.
Dr. Kroger: No. Plenty of time.
Adrian Monk: Are those pillows new?
Dr. Kroger: No.
Adrian Monk: They look... new.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, I'm your doctor. I think this is important. Now, we've got 20 minutes left. We... We could sit here, we could sing show tunes to each other, or we can talk about your sex life. It's your call.
Adrian Monk: [sings] If ever I would leave you It wouldn't be in summer Seeing you in summer I never would go ... [singing continues] No, no, not in springtime Summer, winter or fall No, never would I leave you At all ... [checks watch, continues singing] If ever I would leave you It wouldn't be in summer
Quote from Kevin Dorfman
Lieutenant Disher: Where do you live, Kevin?
Kevin Dorfman: I live upstairs.
Lieutenant Disher: Did you hear or see anything early this morning, say around 5:30?
Kevin Dorfman: No, sir, I did not. I was, you know, with someone.
Lieutenant Disher: Your girlfriend?
Kevin Dorfman: I guess so. Holy Toledo, I have a girlfriend.
Lieutenant Disher: Well, we're gonna need to question her too. How long have you lived upstairs?
Kevin Dorfman: Seven months. Before that, let's see, I lived at 12 Grant Street. Before that, 17 Minton Street with my sister until she moved to Baltimore because she had to take a new job.
Lieutenant Disher: Great. Thank you.
Kevin Dorfman: Before that, I lived at 34 Warren Place for two years. Before that, I lived at 8 Todd Road and 45 Radcliffe Street, consecutively. My first place, though, on 26 Armory Lane, that was a studio. But what I did was... You might want to write this down on a separate page for yourself. I put the bed up on a loft to create some space.
