Adrian Monk : [sitting in Principal Franklin's office] Ah, this brings back memories. Sitting in the principal's office.
Natalie Teeger : You? I can't picture you being sent to the principal's office.
Adrian Monk : I wasn't sent. I used to go there on my own. To report on the troublemakers, I was Mr. Campman's eyes and ears. That's what he called me.
Natalie Teeger : Ummm, so you spied on other kids?
Adrian Monk : I was keeping the study hall safe for people like you. You're welcome.

Natalie Teeger : So you've never won anything in your whole life?
Adrian Monk : Once, at a birthday party, I won a game of musical chairs.
Natalie Teeger : Well, that's something.
Adrian Monk : But then I was disqualified. A mother said I went counter-clockwise, or something.
Natalie Teeger : Well, at least you got invited to the party!
Adrian Monk : It was my party, okay, it was my mother.

Adrian Monk : [trying to give Natalie a boost up to a very high window] Up you go.
Natalie Teeger : [refusing to step into Monk's hands] Up *you* go.
Adrian Monk : Up you go!
Natalie Teeger : No! I'm just the assistant, remember?
Adrian Monk : I believe the word "assist" is a very large part of the word "assistant." Right, "assist," from the Latin meaning "UP YOU GO!"

Adrian Monk : [examining the crime scene] It seems like the coach ran into a lot of bad luck in this room all at once.

[Monk and Natalie are in the girl's bathroom]
Natalie Teeger : You okay?
Adrian Monk : Girl's bathroom.
Natalie Teeger : What are you afraid of?

Natalie Teeger : Cooties?

Natalie Teeger : Well, higher!
[Straining, he does so]
Natalie Teeger : Oh, my God!
Adrian Monk : What is it?
Natalie Teeger : Oh, my God!
Adrian Monk : Natalie, what is it?
Natalie Teeger : There are footprints!
Adrian Monk : Footprints... down you go.
Natalie Teeger : Okay, down I go?
Adrian Monk : Down you go.
Natalie Teeger : Down we go.

Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : [about Julie] I can talk to her next week. How about Saturday? I'll take you guys out for pancakes.
Natalie Teeger : Yeah, it's okay. That's not going to give her much time. It's all right.
[starts walking out of the Captain's office, but then turns around]
Natalie Teeger : Oh, you know what? I forgot to mention. My cousin works for a PR firm for the '49ers.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : No kidding!
Natalie Teeger : Yeah! Joe Montana's going to be in town on Thursday. He's shooting some commercial. You want to meet him?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Joe Montana? Sure!
Natalie Teeger : Okay, you're not too busy?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : No, no. No, I'm sure we can make that work.
Natalie Teeger : Oh, great, because I lied! But it's nice to know you're available on Thursday! Julie will be here after school. Thanks!
[Natalie walks out of the office, while Stottlemeyer looks on in astonishment]
