Quotes 

• Adrian Monk : Excuse me, Leonard Stokes? Can I talk to you?

  Leonard Stokes : It's a free country. At least it will be in about 10 minutes.

  Adrian Monk : My name is Adrian Monk, I'm investigating the death of John Gitomer. Did you know him?

  Leonard Stokes : No.

  [Monk pulls out a bag with Gitomer's cell phone] 

  Adrian Monk : This is his cell phone. We found it in his knapsack. Mr. Gitomer received two calls from this facility from the phone bank in your wing on the day he was killed.

  Leonard Stokes : So what?

  Adrian Monk : You were calling him. I checked the records. They log in every outgoing call.

  [Stokes signs a paper for his belongings] 

  Adrian Monk : That's a nice watch.

  Leonard Stokes : Yeah, Gitomer, I remember. He was here. I knew his name. That's all.

  Adrian Monk : Why were you calling him?

  Leonard Stokes : I don't recall. What difference does it make?

  Adrian Monk : It's just interesting, you two knew each other and his murder is the basis for your appeal.

  [Stokes handles an orange pin] 

  Adrian Monk : What's that?

  Leonard Stokes : It's from my Straight and Sober group. Three year pin.

  Adrian Monk : Very nice. Congratulations.

  Leonard Stokes : Look, I know where this is going. You're working to clear your pal Lieutenant Kirk.

  Adrian Monk : No, no, no. I'm not on the force.

  Leonard Stokes : Oh, come on. Sure you are. I can smell it.

  Adrian Monk : Just looking for the truth.

  Leonard Stokes : Lieutenant Kirk is a killer cop. That's the truth. Just not the truth you want.

  Adrian Monk : You could be right. Is there some place I could reach you?

  Leonard Stokes : No. See you around.

  [Stokes leaves] 

  Sharona Fleming : Gee, he's a charmer.
