Natalie Quote #141
Quote from Natalie in Mr. Monk and the Leper
Natalie: Okay, Mr. Bronson has an affliction. He needs our compassion and understanding. You know what? Let me let you in on a little secret, Mr. Monk. You're no picnic, either. A lot of people would rather not deal with you, but they do. They reach out to you. And Mr. Bronson is offering us a lot of money to do the same thing. And I've been talking to him. You wouldn't even have to shake his hand.
Adrian Monk: Good. Good. Because I would rather die than have to shake his hand again.
Natalie: You don't even have to look at him. All you have to do is go back to that bar and sit and listen to what he has to say. You just sit there and listen.

Quote from Adrian Monk
Dr. Polanski: I don't think you have to worry. As I said, it's not very contagious. I've been practicing for 15 years. I've only seen one case first-hand.
Adrian Monk: I can't do it. I just... I- I can't do it.
Dr. Polanski: Well, how about this? If you do contract the disease I'll treat you for free.
Adrian Monk: The hell are you talking about? How about this? We never call the guy back. We don't see him again. I avoid him like the plague. Yeah, you know what? Exactly like the plague.
Quote from Adrian Monk
Natalie: Mr. Monk. Did you hear what he just said?
Adrian Monk: No.
Natalie: He said it's almost impossible to catch.
Adrian Monk: Yeah. In that sentence, for me, the word "almost" is really the most interesting word.
Quote from Adrian Monk
Natalie: You are overreacting, all right? All you did was shake a man's hand.

Natalie: Exactly.
Adrian Monk: The worst moment of my life is behind me now. I'm free. Wait. [Monk reorients a pan] Okay, now I'm free.
