Quote from Lieutenant Disher in Mr. Monk Can't See a Thing
Lieutenant Disher: Monk? It's Randy. I'm speaking to you. I'm standing right in front of you. Now I'm squatting. I'm about eye level. I just want you to know that we're gonna find the man who did this to you. I'm gonna work on this case 24/7. I don't care how long it takes. Except for May 11th. My niece is getting confirmed, and there's a reception the night before. So I'm probably gonna need... [to Stottlemeyer] I'm probably gonna need that whole weekend off.
Captain Stottlemeyer: So, Randy. Randy.
Lieutenant Disher: From the 11th to the 13th.
Captain Stottlemeyer: I didn't think this was possible, but you're making this situation worse.

Quote from Dr. Kroger
Dr. Kroger: All right, Adrian, wh- Wh- What about your work?
Adrian Monk: My work? My work's great. I'd say I'm operating at or just below Magoo level.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, I have to tell you I'm a little concerned. Now, there are five stages of grief, and I think you've already leapfrogged over at least the first three of them. And I think any doctor-

Dr. Kroger: Adrian, I'm not naked.
Adrian Monk: But you could be.
Dr. Kroger: Look it, Adrian. I think that you're using this condition as an excuse to cut yourself off from the real world, even more than usual. And the pendulum will swing back.
Adrian Monk: I don't think so.

Dr. Kroger: Or maybe we could arrange to have you put into a coma.
Adrian Monk: Well, let's try the ear plug thing first.
