Quotes 

• Roderick Brody : I hear you went a little crazy since high school. Now I just need to know, is it funny crazy or sad crazy?

  Adrian Monk : Sad crazy.

  Natalie Teeger : [at the same time as Monk]  Funny crazy.

  Roderick Brody : [confused]  Which is it?

  Adrian Monk : Excuse me. There's something I want to say.

  [takes out a notecard] 

  Adrian Monk : "Roderick Brody. You stole something from me. You stole my childhood. The boy you tormented has grown into a broken man. I am now damaged goods. I will never recover from the wounds that you inflicted upon me. I will never forget you. And I will never forgive you."

  Roderick Brody : So it's sad crazy?

  Natalie Teeger : I think Mr. Monk is referring to what you did to him in the seventh grade. You tortured him.

• Adrian Monk : Well, you were right.

  [hands Roderick a file] 

  Adrian Monk : His name is Douglas Fendle.

  Natalie Teeger : Do you know him?

  Roderick Brody : Fendle? No.

  Adrian Monk : Are you sure? Young, strapping, good looking guy. Virile. You don't know him?

  Roderick Brody : Mmm-mmm.

  Natalie Teeger : She met him at a bar on Vinton Street, had a couple of drinks, and he left first.

  Adrian Monk : Yeah, the virile guy left first, and we followed him to the Avalon Hotel on Jackson Place.

  Natalie Teeger : Roderick, I'm really sorry.

  Adrian Monk : Yeah, we're really really sorry.

  Roderick Brody : Well, I don't see anything. You know, this is so dark.

  Adrian Monk : Yeah, well, that film expired about 35, 40 years ago. But that's her. If you want to cry, go ahead. We understand.

  Roderick Brody : I can't see anything. This doesn't prove anything.

  Adrian Monk : Yeah, but you know it's her, right? Because you saw her on the street, that's why you hired us.

  Roderick Brody : To tell you the truth, I'm not so sure about that anymore. The woman I saw. Maybe she wasn't Marilyn. You know? My eyes aren't so great, I could have been wrong.

  Adrian Monk : No, no, no. You weren't wrong. It was her.

  Roderick Brody : I'm not convinced. I need some real proof. You know, last night was our anniversary, and Marilyn surprised me. She bought us tickets. We're going on a cruise. It's like a second honeymoon thing. I think we're in a good place.

  Adrian Monk : No. No, no, no, no. You're in a bad place. You're in Heartbreak Hotel. Look at the next one.

  Roderick Brody : [looking at the reflection photo]  Is that a... spoon?

  Adrian Monk : Yeah, look closer. See the reflection. Yeah. See, that's them. That's your wife. That's your beloved wife. This is killing you. It's eating you up.

  Roderick Brody : I don't see it.

  Natalie Teeger : You know what, you're probably right. The bar was dark, she was across the room. We probably have the wrong girl. Mr. Monk, we made a mistake.

  Adrian Monk : Natalie, what... Zip it. Zip it.

  [Monk starts crying] 

  Adrian Monk : This is the worst day of your life.

  Roderick Brody : Are you crying? Adrian, I'm still going to pay you! If that's what you're worried about.

• [Roderick Brody is being questioned at the police station] 

  Roderick Brody : You didn't have to drag me down here. You could've talked to me in my office.

  Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Well I'm more comfortable here. I got my own coffee mug. I've got the AC set just the way I like it.

  Roderick Brody : Yeah, but can I at least call my wife?

  Lt. Randall Disher : Well we already called her. She's on her way.

  Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : So let's start at the beginning. You knew Mr. Monk from the neighborhood. You hired him to follow your wife, he told you about Mr. Fendle, told you about Fendle and the hotel...
