Adrian Monk : To protect you. We thought Rollins might be watching you.
Natalie Teeger : Oh, that's ridiculous! Why would Rollins...?
Sheriff John Rollins : [appears] Adrian, don't move a muscle! Show me your hands! You too, Ms. Teeger. Oh, you are knee-deep in it now, buddy.
Natalie Teeger : You're the one who's in trouble! We know all about how you framed Mr. Monk and switched the gun barrels!
[Monk shushes her]
Natalie Teeger : If anybody is going to prison, it is you!
Adrian Monk : [dryly] Thanks for stopping by, Natalie.
Sheriff John Rollins : Let me tell you about the *real* world, Natalie. It's never about what happened, it's always, can you *prove* what happened?

Sheriff John Rollins : What do I do when I find him?
Dale 'The Whale' Biederbeck : Do you really have to ask?
Sheriff John Rollins : No, sir. I do not.

Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : What was strange?
Sheriff John Rollins : Well. I'll tell you what was strange.
[Gets up and walks over to Stottlemeyer]

Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : We can use all the help we can get.
Sheriff John Rollins : We've all got to suffer.
[He leaves]
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer : [Puts on an armband, and notices that Randy looking at him suspiciously] What?
