Quotes 

• Natalie Teeger : Hi. Excuse me.

  Adrian Monk : Hi. We're looking for this woman.

  [flashes a photo of Marilyn Brody] 

  Bartender : You a cop?

  Adrian Monk : No, no. Just an old friend.

  Bartender : Haven't seen her.

  Adrian Monk : OK.

  [reaches into his wallet and pulls out a $1 dollar bill] 

  Adrian Monk : Maybe General Washington can refresh your memory...

  [he waves his hand over the dollar bill] 

  Bartender : Is that a dollar?

  Adrian Monk : [winks his eye]  Okay I get it. Who knows? Maybe there are... two General Washingtons.

  [he puts a quarter down on the dollar bill, and waves his hand over it like he's performing a magic trick. The bartender walks away] 

  Adrian Monk : Where's he going?

  [Monk puts the money back in his wallet] 

  Adrian Monk : You got to admire the guy. He's incorruptible.

  Barfly : Hey. She's right over there.

  [Monk and Natalie turn around and see Marilyn with her lover in a back table] 

• Natalie Teeger : [as Monk pulls out his old camera]  Mr. Monk, what is that? Is that your camera? Where'd you get that?

  Adrian Monk : It's a birthday gift.

  Natalie Teeger : From who? Thomas Edison?

  Adrian Monk : It's from my Nana.

  Natalie Teeger : Is there actual film in it?

  Adrian Monk : Of course there's film in it.

  [looks around his surroundings] 

  Adrian Monk : Okay, I have three pictures left. There's not enough light. So...

  [He takes out a flash cube] 

  Natalie Teeger : Is that a flash cube?

  Adrian Monk : [popping the cube on]  Bingo. Hold this.

  [He then stands a spoon on its handle. He polishes it while Natalie keeps the spoon steady] 

  Natalie Teeger : What are you doing?

  Adrian Monk : It's an old private eye trick. We use it as a mirror.

  [Natalie holds the spoon upright as Monk positions himself] 

  Natalie Teeger : [whispering]  Hurry up! Take the picture!

  [as the flash fires, Monk and Natalie wince their eyes to try to avoid being temporarily blinded] 

  Barfly : You like that spoon, huh?

  [Natalie suddenly gets an idea] 

  Natalie Teeger : Sir, would you mind taking our picture, please?

  Barfly : Madam, I would be honored.

  Natalie Teeger : [hands him the camera]  Here you are. It's all ready to go!

  Barfly : Hey, I've got the same model myself. A gift from my Nana.

  Natalie Teeger : And if you could just stand right there.

  [does some positioning] 

  Natalie Teeger : Can you see us?

  Barfly : I got ya.

  Natalie Teeger : And on the count of three. One, two, and THREE!

  [the camera flash goes off. She and Monk duck to either side during the flash and come back up]
