Quote from Lieutenant Disher

Lieutenant Disher: How you doin'? We were looking at this case all wrong. It wasn't a burglary. It was all about the wall. The whole time. Here's what happened. The killer was in here last Thursday night. This is where he met Michelle Cullman. They have an artist in here a few nights a week sketching the customers. He drew their picture right there on the wall. After the murder, the killer remembered the sketch. That sketch could hang him. It could prove that he was with the victim the night she died. And it would prove what he was wearing. The same shirt we found at the murder scene. He had to destroy that sketch. So he smashed through the wall and pretended it was part of a burglary. He just pretended to be breaking into a pawn shop. It was never about the pawnshop.
Female Cop: I know.
Lieutenant Disher: You know?
Female Cop: I was here ten minutes ago when Monk was explaining it to you.

Adrian Monk: I guess I'm back to square one. Oh, it's nice to be home.

Quote from Adrian Monk

Lieutenant Disher: Uh, yeah, the victim's daughter was in here. She did a quick inventory. Said the guy took some cash from the register, maybe 35 bucks, the Smith and Wesson and a wristwatch.
Adrian Monk: A wristwatch?
David Ruskin: Why would he take only one?
Adrian Monk: Why wouldn't he just take everything in the case?
Lieutenant Disher: Well, he was probably in a hurry. He was afraid someone heard the shot.
Adrian Monk: No, no, no, no. It's clear from the footprints that he came here first. But he took the cheapest watch in the case. Look, $72. Why would he take the cheapest one and leave all the others? He must have been after that particular watch.
David Ruskin: Wow. [chuckles] Wow. That's like...
Adrian Monk: It's a gift and a curse.
David Ruskin: [laughs] I love it!
Captain Stottlemeyer: He says that all the time.
David Ruskin: He does? I love that! It's a gift and a curse.
