Adrian Monk Quote #2015
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk and the Genius
Patrick Kloster: This is a funeral home, Mr. Monk. My wife has just passed. I find that grin on your face rather inappropriate.
Adrian Monk: I know how you did it.
Patrick Kloster: You still think I murdered my wife?
Adrian Monk: You set a trap.
Natalie: Like the poisoned pawn.
Patrick Kloster: Oh, you've been chatting with some chess masters. Good for you.
Adrian Monk: When I was in your bedroom on Wednesday, I noticed a few things. I just didn't put it all together until today. The glass that had recently been washed, some breath mints, some eyedrops.
Patrick Kloster: And what did they tell you?
Adrian Monk: That your wife had started drinking again.
Natalie: Married to you, I don't blame her.
Adrian Monk: She kept it secret, of course. At least, she tried to. How long did it take you to find her secret stash, a day, a week? On Wednesday morning before you left for Canada, you poisoned her bottle then put it back where you found it. Later that day, Linda took a drink.
Natalie: The poisoned pawn.
Adrian Monk: Then she put the bottle back as you knew she would. It really was brilliant. You didn't have to hide the poison. She would drink it then hide it herself. Natalie, call the captain.
Natalie: Yes, sir.
Patrick Kloster: And did you find this bottle or this hidden stash of poison?
Adrian Monk: No, of course not. It was long gone. You had four days to get rid of it. But there are still traces of it in here, in her body. We're gonna run every toxicology test in the book, and we're going to find it.

Quote from Adrian Monk

Quote from Captain Stottlemeyer
Captain Stottlemeyer: Don't do it.
Adrian Monk: Don't do what?
Captain Stottlemeyer: Break my heart. You're thinking about planting evidence in Kloster's house. Monk, I've been a cop for 30 years. I've had this conversation nine times. I never thought that I'd be having it with you. There's a line. You step across it, and you're gone for good. There's no going back.
Adrian Monk: You don't understand.
Captain Stottlemeyer: I do understand. I've been there. I've had cases like this, cases you couldn't shake. Sometimes you have to let it go.
Adrian Monk: Let it go?
Captain Stottlemeyer: We have to move on. There's a city- A city full of people. Other people that need our help right now.
Quote from Adrian Monk
Adrian Monk: Ah, I'm afraid you can't touch that. I'm sorry.
Woman #1: She was our niece.
Adrian Monk: Well, I'm a former police officer. And I'm afraid we have to borrow your niece, her remains, for a couple of days.
Woman #2: Borrow her?
Adrian Monk: Yes, we have to run some toxicology tests on the body.
Woman #1: Oh, my goodness.
Adrian Monk: No, no, no, we do it all the time. We're going to cut her open just- Just a little bit. And slice off a teeny tiny, tiny piece of her liver and her stomach, and maybe take a little, tiny, nearly imperceptible bit of fluid from her eyeball. Like on TV. Who likes TV?
Woman #1: But why?
Adrian Monk: The fact is we think she may have been poisoned.
Woman #2: But how did the poison get in the cable car?
Adrian Monk: What cable car?
Woman #1: The cable car that hit her. That's how Marjorie was killed.
Adrian Monk: Um, um, um...
Patrick Kloster: Mr. Monk, that's not my wife. My wife is right here. I had her cremated two hours ago. As you can see, I have anticipated your every move.
Adrian Monk: Cremated?
Patrick Kloster: Yes, I don't think your toxicology tests are gonna do much good, but you are welcome to try. Aw, I know that look. I've seen it quite often. That's how my opponents look when they know they've been beaten. Your move, Mr. Monk.
