Adrian Monk Quote #1633
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk Goes to the Hospital
Adrian Monk: Mr. Johansen, listen to me! Dr. Scott killed Dr. Whitcomb. And I know how he did it. He checked himself in as a patient. He knew this hospital. He knew there had been a renovation. So he made sure that at one time, his room was connected to your room. At about 2:00, he made his move. He came in here through the supply closet. He knew you'd be sleeping. He probably prescribed your sedatives.
Hank Johansen: As a matter of fact, he did.
Adrian Monk: Right, then he put his monitor on your chest. He took the oxygen tank, and then he went downstairs. After the murder, he came back here, put his monitor back on, and snuck back into his room. It was perfect. Your heartbeat was his alibi. So, what do you think?
Hank Johansen: I'll tell you what I think. I owe you an apology.
Adrian Monk: Really?
Hank Johansen: Yeah, that would explain everything.
Adrian Monk: Yes.
Hank Johansen: You know, you really are a great detective.
Adrian Monk: But I need proof.
Hank Johansen: Yeah, that's the thing. You need proof.
Adrian Monk: Yeah. I've got it. I've got it. Okay, if I'm right, which, you know, I am, for about ten minutes, during the murder, your heartbeat, and Dr. Scott's heartbeat, are the exact same heartbeat. All I have to do is find those cardiograms.
Hank Johansen: Yeah. Good thinking. You better go. It's very exciting.
Adrian Monk: Yeah. I better use the door.
‘Mr. Monk Goes to the Hospital’ Quotes
Quote from Lieutenant Disher
Nurse: It's not possible. Mr. Johansen never left his room. He's been on the heart monitor all night. Here's a cardiogram. No gaps, no interruptions.
Lieutenant Disher: Actually, all we know for sure is that he never took the monitor off. What if he took it with him?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Randy, please.
Lieutenant Disher: No, it's possible. I mean, all he had to do was strap the monitor to his back. And then climb out the window, shimmy down one story, unspooling 600 feet of wire along the way.
Nurse: He's 82 years old.
Lieutenant Disher: He's a veteran. They were the Greatest Generation.
Captain Stottlemeyer: You through?
Quote from Lieutenant Disher
Adrian Monk: And, Randy, you hit it. Remember?
Lieutenant Disher: Yeah.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Well, let's see it. [Disher starts to unbutton his pants] What are you doing?
Lieutenant Disher: Showing you the bruise.
Adrian Monk: What's he doing?
Captain Stottlemeyer: It's near your ankle. Just pull up your pant leg.
Lieutenant Disher: Well, six of one, right?
Captain Stottlemeyer: It's not six of one. Roll up your pant leg.
Lieutenant Disher: I'm already unbuckled. Okay, fine.
Quote from Lieutenant Disher
Lieutenant Disher: Captain, look at this.
Captain Stottlemeyer: What is that?
Hospital Administrator: That looks like a seal. That could be from one of our oxygen tanks.
Captain Stottlemeyer: "Room 623."
Lieutenant Disher: Room 623. All right, let's go!
Hospital Administrator: Uh, Lieutenant, that's the geriatric ward. If he's a patient up there, he's at least 80 years old.
Lieutenant Disher: Well, then, we better move fast.
