Monk Quote

[Stottlemeyer shows up at Monk's apartment]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Good, good. Listen, Monk. I'm on my way over to the firehouse right now. I need you to come along.
Adrian Monk: What for? I gave the Lieutenant my statement.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Yeah I know, but I just thought that you might "see" something.
Adrian Monk: Somehow I doubt that.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: You know what I mean. Look, Monk, even in this condition, you're still the best detective I know.
Natalie Teeger: Come on. I think it's a great idea.
Adrian Monk: Nah, you don't mean that. You're just trying to cheer me up.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Look, Monk, this isn't only about you. This is a homicide investigation; a fireman was killed.
Adrian Monk: Rusty?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Rusty. He was a standup guy. He'd been on that engine for 35 years, and I'm gonna nail the son-of-a-bitch that killed him, and you're gonna help me.
Adrian Monk: Leland, I can't! I can't-
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Monk, I'm not asking you. [pause] Natalie, get him up.
[Natalie helps Monk to his feet]
Natalie Teeger: Come on, you heard the Captain.
Adrian Monk: All right, I'm coming, I'm coming. Listen, don't expect too much from me; I'm no Mr. Magoo.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Mr. Magoo?
Natalie Teeger: Yeah, Magoo, the famous inventor.
Captain Stottlemeyer: Magoo.
