Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Employee of the Month
Adrian Monk: What's, what's this?
Captain Stottlemeyer: That, my friend, is the evidence room. Bin number four. That's where your pal said that he put all of the cocaine. As you can plainly see, bin number four is empty.
Adrian Monk: Okay, wait. Some of these items were sold at a police auction a few days later?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Yep. That's routine.
Adrian Monk: Three televisions, one boy's bicycle, two computers.
Captain Stottlemeyer: So?
Adrian Monk: Wait. Wait. Look. Look. Look at this bicycle.
Sharona: Well, that's a girl's bike. There's no metal bar.
Adrian Monk: But when it was sold two days later, it was a boy's bike. Somebody added that metal tube.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Do we know who bought that boy's bike?
Lieutenant Disher: Yeah, it's right here. Item 422, boy's bike, sold to Clara Toplin.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Toplin? Clara Toplin used to be the properties clerk here. She quit about four years ago.
Lieutenant Disher: That's right.

Quote from Dr. Kroger
Adrian Monk: You stole a granola bar. You took a bite and you put it in your pocket.
Dr. Kroger: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Adrian, that- That really hurts me.
Adrian Monk: It hurts me, too.
Dr. Kroger: I am not a thief. I had that bar with me when I went into the store. I- I carry them in my pocket all the time just to keep up my energy.
Adrian Monk: Uh-huh. Yeah. So there's, um there's one in your pocket right now?
Dr. Kroger: Yes, Adrian, there is one in my pocket right now, and I hope I do not have to take it out to prove it to you.
Adrian Monk: I- I...
Dr. Kroger: You know, Adrian, I see this all the time. I work with cops, I work with ex-cops. You... You see terrible things. People lie to you. After a while, you don't believe anything.
Adrian Monk: I- I- I- I- I...

Dr. Kroger: [starts eating granola bar] Mm-hmm.
Adrian Monk: Oh. [chuckles] Thank God. [Dr. Kroger chuckles] Of course I- I knew it. I knew it all along.
Dr. Kroger: Of course you did. Yeah.
