Captain Stottlemeyer Quote #175
Quote from Captain Stottlemeyer in Mr. Monk and the Other Detective
Marty Eels: So, captain, am I on the case or what?
Captain Stottlemeyer: First, I have to ask you a couple questions.
Marty Eels: Yeah, yeah.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Where were you yesterday morning at 8:00?
Marty Eels: You mean, when the robbery was happening?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Yeah.
Marty Eels: You guys think I had something to do with that? Why? Because you can't keep up with me on a crime scene?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Where were you, Marty?
Marty Eels: I was at the hospital. St. Andrew's. They thought I had a concussion.
Lieutenant Disher: What happened?
Marty Eels: Well... That's kind of embarrassing. I, um I got hit very hard by a client. Hit me very hard. Yeah. Um I was, um, supposed to follow his wife and take pictures.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Whoa. She was cheating on him.
Marty Eels: No. No. That, that, that's him. That's my client.
Natalie: You burst in and took a picture of a man in bed with his own wife?
Marty Eels: Yes, I did. I made a mistake. I'm human. So the bottom line is I was at the hospital when the jewelry thing was happening. You can call them.
Captain Stottlemeyer: We will.
Marty Eels: Why is it so hard for you guys to believe that I'm just this good?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Because, Marty, you were never this good before. In fact, you sort of sucked.

Quote from Dr. Kroger
Dr. Kroger: No, no, Adrian, I'm not suggesting that you just give up. I'm saying to you that there is always someone ahead of you. This is the human condition. For instance, there, there's a new psychiatrist here in town, name of Lowenstern. Now, I know that there is no way that I will ever be, well, as good as he is. I know this. I accept it.
Adrian Monk: He's better than you?
Dr. Kroger: He's brilliant. Nominated for a Nobel prize. But, the point is, you think that you might enjoy teaching.
Adrian Monk: I don't know. Tell me more about this Lowenstern.
Dr. Kroger: Lowenstern. I could introduce you. Office is right across the street. He charges $400 an hour.
Adrian Monk: ... So where, where were we?
Quote from Adrian Monk
Natalie: Mr. Monk, are you okay? Everybody's waiting.
Adrian Monk: It's over there.
Natalie: What?
Adrian Monk: Dog, you know. Dog doo.
Natalie: Did you step in it?
Adrian Monk: If I stepped in it, I'd be in that ambulance right now on my way to the emergency room, wouldn't I? Praying for the sweet release that only death can bring.
Quote from Adrian Monk
Captain Stottlemeyer: Adrian Monk, Natalie Teeger, this is Marty Eels. He's a private investigator.
Marty Eels: Hey, how you doing? [shakes Monk's hand] How you doing? I hear good things. Good things. Don't worry. I'm not competition. [Natalie hands Monk a wipe] I'm just here to help. Can I have one of those? So what have we got?
Adrian Monk: Captain, I don't think the manager did this. For one thing, he didn't lock the door behind him. Plus, I notice some more blood by the curb. I think there was a second shooting.
Marty Eels: Yeah, he could be right. Very good. Nicely done. Nicely done. [to Natalie] Thanks, sweetheart.
Lieutenant Disher: Captain! He's right. I think he belongs to the store manager. Harold Gumbal. Geary St., Oakland.
Marty Eels: You know, if the manager was robbing his own store, he wouldn't bring his dog along.
Adrian Monk: Or leave him behind. No, the manager is not the guy.
Marty Eels: No, that's right. The manager is not the guy.
Adrian Monk: Here's what happ-
Marty Eels: Here's what happened. Here's what happened! This dog was a hostage. The manager was being forced to rob his store. Something went wrong, and they shot the guard. Excuse me.
