Adrian Monk Quote #840
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Election
Natalie: Hmm, brings back memories, huh?
Adrian Monk: Yeah. But what are you gonna do?
Natalie: I used to love tetherball.
Adrian Monk: It wasn't really my game.
Natalie: What was your game, Mr. Monk?
Adrian Monk: Keep-away. I played a lot of keep-away.
Natalie: Keep-away?
Adrian Monk: I was usually the jumper. That was my position. It was good exercise, too. The ball was movin' around... Cardiovascular. Jump. Now, now! Jump! Oh, this kid's timing is way off. It's all about timing. Now, now he's crying? I usually started crying a lot earlier. But everybody's got a different style.
Natalie: You played this a lot?
Adrian Monk: All through high school. Some college. Got pretty good at it. The secret to keep-away is you have to have a lot of other hats at home, and not get too attached to any of them. It was a good match.
