Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Wrong Man
Sarah McNally: How could you?
Adrian Monk: What are you doing here? This is Sarah McNally. She was the eyewitness 14 years ago.
Sarah McNally: I've been following you. Watching you. You've been helping him.
Natalie: No, Max Barton has been exonerated. The police found some evidence-
Sarah McNally: I don't care about any new evidence. I know what I saw. I saw him leaving that house. He's a monster.
Adrian Monk: Ma'am, a lot of people were wrong about this case. It's not your fault. You were in your house. You were 45, maybe 50 yards away.
Sarah McNally: 42 yards. You measured, remember? Your measuring tape broke. You sent Lieutenant Culkin to get a new one.
Adrian Monk: Culkin. You- You remember his name?
Sarah McNally: I remember everything. It's a curse.
Sarah McNally: You were wearing the exact same thing. Except it was a gray blazer with white buttons.
Adrian Monk: That's right. She's right.

Quote from Lieutenant Disher
Lieutenant Disher: "Will you be reopening the case?"
Captain Stottlemeyer: We already have reopened the case. And, uh, as you know, there is no statute of limitations on murder. However, we... What the hell is going on?
Lieutenant Disher: [smiling] It wasn't me.
Captain Stottlemeyer: What wasn't you?
Lieutenant Disher: This screw-up. It wasn't me. It's always me. I can't believe it's not me. It's always me. This wasn't me. I wasn't even on the force back then.
Captain Stottlemeyer: You understand that this wasn't a traffic violation. An innocent man spent fourteen years of his life in a state penitentiary, and the son of a bitch that murdered those poor people is still out there.
Lieutenant Disher: Yes, sir. I know, but it wasn't me.
Captain Stottlemeyer: You're right, Randy. It wasn't you. It was Adrian Monk's case. I just talked to Natalie. Monk is devastated. I can't blame him. Can you imagine? The guilt. The pain. Adrian Monk had this much confidence to begin with, this'll probably kill him. What have you got to say to that?
Lieutenant Disher: It wasn't me.
