Lt. Randall Disher : Captain. I uh, tracked down Kalimarakis. I don't think he's our guy. Number One: it turns out he was allowed to join the Olympic swim team as an alternate. He got a waiver.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : So there's no motive.
Lt. Randall Disher : Right, Number Two: he's dead. He died in 1995, and Number Three: He moved to Europe in the late 80s, so there's no record of him ever returning to the United States...
[Stottlemeyer interrupts]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Randy? Randy? Excuse me. Sorry to interrupt you, but could you repeat Number Two again?
Lt. Randall Disher : Okey-doke. Uh, he's dead.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Right... See, I probably would have stopped reading after Number Two. In fact I would have read Number Two first.
Lt. Randall Disher : You would have switched them?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Yeah. But that's just me. And probably every other adult on the planet Earth.

Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : [walking in on Monk, who is defrosting a refrigerator] There you are.
Natalie Teeger : Captain, what are you doing here?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Looking for you. I was about to give up when I heard some clowns downstairs talking about a guy up here defrosting a refrigerator. Who's Captain Cool?
[Two students walk past them]
First Student : Captain Cool lives!
Second Student : The return of Captain Cool!
First Student : The Iceman Cometh back!
[They leave the lounge and walk down the hall laughing to themselves]
Adrian Monk : Might be me.
[He activates the blowdryer and continues to defrost]

[Stottlemeyer interrupts the reunion dinner while making an announcement from the stage]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Can you kill the music please? Thank you.
[the music stops. Stottlemeyer tests the microphone and gets a bit of feedback]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Sorry to interrupt your dinner. This will just take a minute. My name is Captain Leland Stottlemeyer. I'm with the San Francisco Police Department. Now, we're working on a homicide investigation and could use your help. As you all know, a woman was killed on Friday night. Her name was Katherine Rutherford; she was a nurse at the university clinic. Now, we have reason to believe that someone in your class, possibly someone in this room, might be involved. We're looking for information - if anyone knows anyone who might have had a grudge against Mrs. Rutherford, or someone who might be missing a reunion lapel pin. The alumni...
[the projector shows a photo of Stottlemeyer wearing riot gear. The people in the room all start booing him]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : All right! Hey-hey-hey-hey! Look!
[turns to the photograph and then back]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : This is completely out of context. You can't tell the whole story from ONE photograph!
[the image changes to show the whole photo, which depicts Stottlemeyer subduing a protestor and grabbing him by the hair. After a bit more booing from the audience, he speaks up and says]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : You didn't have a permit!
Male Student : Yes we did!
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : It expired at Noon!
[the image on the projector changes to one of Stottlemeyer pointing at the Campanile clock tower, which reads 12:06 PM]
Male Student : 12:06!
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Like I said, it expired at Noon.

Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : [examining a crime scene] A lot of gravity in these stairwells.
[to Randy]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : I just used the elevator. Why didn't she? Was it broken?
[Randy starts to check his notes]
Lt. Randall Disher : Uhhhh...
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : If you don't know, just say it.
Lt. Randall Disher : I don't know.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : [to a cop standing over Katherine Rutherford's body] Hey are there any beads down there?
Uniform Cop : No sir.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : If she slipped on the beads, why didn't any of them roll away?
[Randy looks in his notebook]
Lt. Randall Disher : Beads, beads, beads...
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : You don't know. Randy, this is wrong.
[He picks up an intact portion of necklace and walks down to the body]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : This is very wrong.
[to the officers]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Lift up her head.
[Stottlemeyer puts the intact portion of the necklace around Katherine's neck, but it doesn't fit]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : It doesn't fit; it's too small. Okay, we're changing gears. Lock down this stairwell from the basement to the roof. Call the watch commander; this is now a homicide investigation.

[Randy is at his desk, and noticing something, he rushes into Stottlemeyer's office]
Lt. Randall Disher : Captain? The lapel pin. I just remembered where I saw it.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : When?
Lt. Randall Disher : Just now at my desk.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : No I mean... tell me about the pin, Randy.
Lt. Randall Disher : Monk. He's been wearing the same pin all week for his 25th college reunion.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : I think you're right. Did the victim go to Berkeley?
Lt. Randall Disher : No, she worked there. She was a nurse at the university clinic for, like, 20 years.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : But she didn't graduate, so this isn't her pin.
Lt. Randall Disher : The killer.
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : It fell off the killer... which means the killer is at the reunion... with Monk?
-
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : Well, that's what the kids call a motive.
Natalie Teeger : Then he waited 25 years to do something about it? Who could hold a grudge for that long?
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : I could. And have.
