Adrian Monk Quote #1364
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Class Reunion
Natalie: Mr. Monk, what's going on?
Adrian Monk: Okay, I have a theory. It's completely crazy, but it would explain everything. Kyle and Dianne moved recently. At some point, Kyle must have found some of her old papers - personal papers - including the suicide note she wrote 25 years ago.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Her suicide note?
Adrian Monk: He realized that with that note, he could kill his wife with impunity. It was in her handwriting. Nobody would ever question it.
Dianne Brooks: [v.o.] "The depression is overwhelming. Give Tangerine a good home. No relief. Even today I was eating Rocco's with Adrian and Trudy. Breaking that glass in the quad today felt like the final straw."
Adrian Monk: But he had one problem. Because the note was 25 years old, obviously, there were a couple of things in it that were no longer true.
Natalie: Like the name of her dog.
Adrian Monk: Exactly. And breaking that glass. And eating at the restaurant "with Adrian and Trudy." That's what he was doing all weekend. He was recreating parts of her life to match that suicide note.
Natalie: So when we found out, we wouldn't be suspicious.
Lieutenant Disher: Why did he kill the nurse?
Captain Stottlemeyer: He had no choice. Katherine Rutherford read that note 25 years ago. It would have been made public. She would have recognized it.
Natalie: Oh, my God, Mr. Monk, he could be doing it right now.

Quote from Lieutenant Disher
Lieutenant Disher: Captain? I tracked down Kalimarakis. I don't think he's our guy. Number one, it turns out he was allowed to join the Olympic swim team as an alternate. He, uh, got a waiver.
Captain Stottlemeyer: So there's no motive.
Lieutenant Disher: Right. Number two, he's dead. He died in 1995. And number three, he moved to Europe in the late '80s. So there's no record of him ever returning-
Captain Stottlemeyer: Randy. Randy, excuse me. I'm sorry to interrupt you but could you read number two again?
Lieutenant Disher: Okeydoke. He's dead.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Right. See, I probably would have stopped reading after number two. In fact, I would have read number two first.
Lieutenant Disher: You would have switched 'em?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Yeah. But that's just me. And probably every other adult on the planet Earth.
Quote from Adrian Monk
Adrian Monk: You had a girlfriend with short red hair.
Todd: Belinda.
Adrian Monk: Yeah.
Todd: Yeah, yeah. She and I, we got married. But, uh, she passed away.
Adrian Monk: Oh, my wife died too. Trudy Ellison. Yeah.
Todd: It's tough, huh? But you just have to move on.
Adrian Monk: No, we can't move on. We can try, but we'll never get past it. It's unrelenting. All we can do is live out our days alone in hopeless, quiet desperation.
Quote from Adrian Monk
Adrian Monk: Natalie, I think I've seen enough. Let's just go.
Natalie: No, I'm not gonna let you go. You've been looking so forward to this.
Adrian Monk: I don't know what I was thinking. These people weren't my friends. Okay? They don't even remember me. The truth is, I was invisible. It was Trudy they loved. I was always just the guy with Trudy. Just like you're the girl with me.
Natalie: Mr. Monk, why is your name on the spit shield?
Adrian Monk: Oh, when I was here, there was nothing protecting the food.
Natalie: So you donated all of these? That is so generous of you.
Adrian Monk: Well, actually, it was more of a lawsuit. Took up a lot of my spare time.
