Captain Stottlemeyer Quote #326
Quote from Captain Stottlemeyer in Mr. Monk Is on the Run (Part Two)
Captain Stottlemeyer: Hello, Sheriff Rollins. Make yourself at home.
Sheriff Rollins: You read the paper today?
Captain Stottlemeyer: I did. I read the sports page. I did the jumble.
Sheriff Rollins: Eh, not the jumble. This, page five. Male, Caucasian, 5'11", late 40s.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Is it Monk?
Sheriff Rollins: No. It's not Monk. I was at the morgue last night. [scoffs] The guy had a tattoo and red hair. Uh, I thought it was strange.
Captain Stottlemeyer: What was strange?
Sheriff Rollins: Well, I'll tell you what was strange. You weren't there. A bulletin was sent in. It was in the daily log. You must have read it. You guys won't mind if I hang around a few more days, see if anything else washes up?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Knock yourself out. We can use all the help we can get.
Sheriff Rollins: We all got to suffer.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Yeah.

Quote from Adrian Monk
Dale Biederbeck: What did you win, Monk? Nothing! We're both back where we started.
Adrian Monk: Not exactly. The police in Dourados found something in Frank Nunn's apartment. Some old letters. He talked about killing Trudy. He mentioned the man who hired him.
Dale Biederbeck: You have a name!
Adrian Monk: Yeah, not quite. Nunn called him "The Judge."
Dale Biederbeck: The Judge. I can't help you, Adrian.
Adrian Monk: Can't or won't?
Dale Biederbeck: A little lead. How exciting. That should keep you off the street for a while.

Moving Guy: All these books. What was he, a professor?

Moving Guy: Like the car wash guy.
Natalie: Yeah. What car wash guy?
Moving Guy: The guy in Nevada. I was just reading about him. Here. It's in today's paper. They call him the "Car Wash Columbo." He solved a big hit-and-run case single-handedly. Yeah. Sounds like a real character. His boss says it takes him a whole hour to wipe down every car. Won't even use the same rag twice.
Natalie: Can I see that?
Moving Guy: Yeah.
Natalie: There's no picture.
Moving Guy: I guess he's modest too.
Natalie: "Leland Rodriguez." His name is Leland?
