Adrian Monk Quote #599
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Blackout
Captain Stottlemeyer: Miss Rivas. You're saying that there was no security here at all, no camera, no guard? Michelle Rivas: The cameras were all on the outside. There are none here in the main yard.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Well, if the bomber knew that, then this is probably an inside job.
Michelle Rivas: We're assuming it was, or at least he knew what he was doing. You see, when this station went down, the next one on the grid tried to compensate, then the one after that, causing a full reactive power surge. 3.2 seconds later, the entire sector went dark. Actually, we got lucky. The bomb went off at exactly 9:00.
would have been on the primary grid, and we would have lost half of California.
Adrian Monk: Doesn't make sense. He knew where to set the bomb, but not when to set the bomb.
Captain Stottlemeyer: He screwed up.
Adrian Monk: Maybe. Or maybe he was being selective. Maybe he didn't want to black out the whole state.

‘Mr. Monk and the Blackout’ Quotes
Quote from Lieutenant Disher
Captain Stottlemeyer: What do you got, Randy?
Lieutenant Disher: Winston Brenner. He was an activist in the '90s. He was indicted in a series of bombings in Boston. Pretty angry individual. Here, look at this. This is the letter from the power plant. This one is from 11 years ago. He uses a lot of the same phrases. "The blood I shed today," "the blood I shed today." "Price of absolute freedom," "price of absolute freedom." Check this out. The handwriting is identical. This is definitely the guy. The only thing is, is that back then, Brenner didn't really care about the environment. Anti-military was his thing.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Did you read the rest of the file, Randy?
Lieutenant Disher: We've got some pictures, too. They're blurry but good.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Read the rest of the file, Randy.
Lieutenant Disher: Which part?
Captain Stottlemeyer: The part here where it says that he died. Deceased 1995. He blew himself up before the trial.
Lieutenant Disher: He's dead.
