Quotes 

• [St Claire speaks at Jason Ronstadt's funeral. Monk has lost his keys] 

  Warren St. Claire : In a few seconds, we will be closing the casket and saying good-bye to Jason forever.

  Sharona Fleming : Adrian, it's okay. We'll make new ones. Just - It's okay.

  Adrian Monk : It's the key chain. The key chain - it was Trudy's. I gotta - I gotta - I gotta have those keys. That packet right there just give it to me.

  Sharona Fleming : No.

  [Reluctantly, she hands over the paperclip from the packet] 

  Warren St. Claire : Jason showed up every Sunday...

  Sharona Fleming : You are going straight to hell.

  Adrian Monk : I am in Hell.

  Warren St. Claire : May his loving spirit live forever in our hearts and in our prayers.

  [Adrian starts to create a makeshift fishing line using some dental floss and the paperclip] 

  Warren St. Claire : Why don't we take a moment and meditate silently?

  [the people close their eyes and bow their heads. Meanwhile, Adrian lowers the fishing line] 

  Warren St. Claire : Now... old friend... we turn and salute you one last time.

  [St. Claire faces the casket and salutes. By mistake, Monk hooks Jason's sleeve. He pulls on it, yanking up the hand as if in response to St. Claire's salute. Cuts to later, outside the church] 

  Jesse Goodman : We gotta pull the car around. He's ready to go.

  Angry Old Lady : [to Monk]  You should be ashamed of yourself!

  Miranda St. Claire : Do you lie awake at night thinking of ways to disrupt my husband's campaign?

  Warren St. Claire : Now, Miranda...

  Adrian Monk : No, ma'am, I like awake at night and try not to think at all.

  Warren St. Claire : These things happen. Hell, for a minute, I thought I had a new campaign slogan: "Vote for St. Claire. He can raise the dead!"

  [He and Miranda take off down the steps] 

  Warren St. Claire : Where's my boy?

  Jesse Goodman : Here, sir.

  Warren St. Claire : Make sure Miranda gets home.

  Jesse Goodman : Of course.

  Adrian Monk : Mrs. St. Claire, a couple of questions.

  Miranda St. Claire : Let me ask you a question. How can you investigate anything? I'm told you're "germophobic," afraid of the dark, heights, crowds... and milk.

  Sharona Fleming : We're working on the milk. He's making good progress on milk.

  Miranda St. Claire : Ah.

  Adrian Monk : Mrs. St. Claire, I - I sense that you're a little upset, but I can tell you why I dropped my keys. I've been a bit preoccupied with another case. A girl was murdered in Santa Clara. Uh, a Nicole Vasques. Did you know her?

  Miranda St. Claire : No.

  Adrian Monk : No?
