Adrian Monk : [to the murder suspect] You had the hotel key card, so you knew where he was staying. You ran the whole way. You probably didn't even notice that it was starting to rain... you. It was you. You filthy, disgusting animal! YOU MAKE ME SICK!
[confused, everyone turns to look where Monk is pointing]
Busboy : Me?
Sharona Fleming : What are you doing? He's a busboy!
Adrian Monk : Sharona, don't you recognize him? From the subway! He's the Urinator! Urinator! It was you, don't-don't try to deny it...!
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Monk...
Adrian Monk : We saw what you...!
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Monk! Could we get back to the quadruple homicide, please?

[on learning that Warrick Tennyson is dying in hospital]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : How long does he have?
Walter : Two, three days. He's being deposed in connection with that federal racketeering case, and they're afraid they're gonna lose him before they get what they need. They're not letting anybody else near him.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : You gave me your word.
Walter : Come on, I didn't lie to you! If we close the ambassador case...
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Look, I don't *care* about the frigging ambassador! He means less than zero to me, okay? My friend's wife got *blown up*! You understand? And it killed him, too! In a way.
[silence]
Walter : If we close this case, we can call the press, we can call City Hall, we're gonna have juice. Come on, you know how this works! They won't dare say no to us. Captain, it's not just your best shot. It's your only shot.

Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Where is he?
Masul the Cabbie : Who?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : The guy in the front seat, where is he?
Masul the Cabbie : The nut?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Yeah, the nut! Where'd he go?
Masul the Cabbie : What is he complaining about? My taxi is very clean! Why is he wiping, wiping, wiping everything?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Sir, your taxi is perfect! But where did he go?
Masul the Cabbie : Look, I don't care! I never pick him up again! I see him again, I keep driving! I don't care if I lose my license! You tell him, I'll keep driving!

[last lines]
Masul the Cabbie : No, no, no, no! You guys, fine.
[indicating Monk]
Masul the Cabbie : But not him!
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : No, wait, hang on, hang on.
[cuffs Monk's hands behind his back]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : I'm handcuffing him, he won't touch anything.
Masul the Cabbie : Double the meter!
Adrian Monk : [to Sharona] Yeah, let's come back here real soon!
Masul the Cabbie : And no talking!

Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : [26:33] We didn't fly 3,000 miles to see Cats.
Captain Walter Cage : Cats is closed.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : I was straight up with you from the moment I shook your hand.
Captain Walter Cage : You accusing me of something?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Warrick Tennyson is dying from kidney failure and heart disease. He probably will not live long enough to talk to us and you knew it. How long does he have?
Captain Walter Cage : He's got two, three days, maybe. He's in some hospital nobody knows where and the DA's been deposing him on that racketeering case and they're afraid they'll lose him before they get what they need. They're not going to let anybody get near him.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : You gave me your word.
Captain Walter Cage : I didn't lie to you! If we close the ambassador case...
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Look, I don't care about the frigging ambassador! He means less than zero to me, ok? My friend's wife got blown up, do you understand? And, it killed him, too, in a way.
