Adrian Monk Quote #1843
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Man Who Shot Santa Claus
Adrian Monk: Here's the thing. That was not my gun. That was his gun. He dropped it. Then he attacked me.
Brandy Barber: Is this the gun you're referring to?
Adrian Monk: Where did- Where did you get that?
Brandy Barber: I'm a reporter, Mr. Monk. I have my sources. It's a rather distinctive weapon, isn't it? A snub-nose .38 with an antique ivory handle. As you can see, part of the handle is missing.
Adrian Monk: Yes, it's broken.
Brandy Barber: Which brings me to my final question. We received an anonymous phone call from one of your neighbors.
Adrian Monk: Which one?
Brandy Barber: He didn't say. It was anonymous. He did say he saw you burying something behind your building last night.
Adrian Monk: Burying something?
Brandy Barber: My producer and I came by and dug it up. I have it right here. We wanted to show it to you before we turn it over to the authorities. Do you recognize it? Huh, it's a perfect fit. Do you still say it wasn't your gun? [Monk takes a bite of the Christmas cookie]

Quote from Adrian Monk
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, I know how difficult this is for you. I was worried about you even- Even before all this happened. I know it's ten years since Trudy.
Adrian Monk: Trudy. Trudy loved Christmas.
Dr. Kroger: Yeah, you mentioned that.
Adrian Monk: Every Christmas morning, she'd set the alarm. We'd go outside and watch the sun come up. Trudy used to say Christmas made the whole world seem softer.
Dr. Kroger: Softer. I like that. What about before Trudy? What was Christmas like when you were growing up?
Adrian Monk: Dark, desperate. The pain was unrelenting. Thank you for asking.
