"I was at the stadium Tuesday night." "He was on fire." "Some guys just can't handle the pressure, my friend." "Not like you and me." "CAPTAIN:" "Randy, where is that list of people... who might've had a grudge against Lawrence Hammond?" "still working on it, sir." "It's like a phone book." "Everybody who had stock in the company had a reason to hate the guy." "Captain, do you have a minute?" "I think we're onto something." "Erin Hammond was having an affair." "Again with the wife." "There were four shampoo bottles in her bedroom from the Newport Inn." "It's two miles from her house." "The concierge said she's been there... two, three times a month with a guy."

"Monk, can we keep our eye on the prize here?" "Is he an artist?" "Yeah." "He likes to do some painting in his spare time." "SHARONA:" "Adrian, you're wrong." "It is not the same artist." "MONK:" "I know it's not the same artist, but look at the window and the drapes... and the church in the background." "Oh, my God." "You're right." "It is the same church." "So at some point, they were both in the same room." "Wait." "You're saying Lawrence Hammond's wife" "His murdered wife." "And Scott Gregorio." "Future hall of Famer." "Are connected." "Bet on it." "Adrian, you were right." "This is the room." "SHARONA:" "The drapes and the church." "They both must have taken this class." "Oh, yes." "No." "Okay." "Sharona, I can't do this." "Why?" "Because he's naked?" "You've never seen a naked man before?" "No." "well, you've seen yourself naked, right?" "Just once." "AII right." "Let me do the talking." "SHARONA:" "Mr. HenIey?" "FRANK:" "I'm Frank HenIey." "Excuse me if I don't get up." "My regular model called in sick." "SHARONA:" "That's okay." "We spoke earlier." "I'm Sharona FIeming, and, this is Adrian Monk."

"Forget the case." "We can't win them all." "So you're gonna let a murderer go because you can't talk to a naked man?" "Yes." "Come on." "Mr. HenIey, this is only gonna take a minute." "Erin Hammond was a student of yours last year, right?" "FRANK:" "That's right." "For one semester." "God rest her soul." "Do you draw, Miss FIeming?" "No, but my son, Benjy, really has the gift." "SHARONA:" "Didn't get it from me, though." "[Students groan]" "Mr." "Monk, please don't touch anything." "Sorry." "Sorry." "SHARONA:" "I understand Scott Gregorio, the baseball player, was also a student of yours." "Did they know each other?" "Look, I don't wanna get anyone in trouble." "Maybe they left together once or twice." "They were both consenting adults." "Who am I to judge?" "That's a good point." "Thank you." "Interview's over." "Thank you." "SHARONA:" "I guess that's it." "MONK:" "That's it." "Thank you very much." "Thank you." "Here, wait." "Let me see you out." "No." "I can't!" "No!" "That's it." "We can see ourselves out." "Just stay there." "What is your problem?" "The human body is a beautiful thing." "No." "It's not." "Did you hear what he said?" "Erin Hammond and Scott Gregorio left together." "So what does that mean?" "I don't know... but I think it meant something to somebody." "We haven't seen any home runs for the Iast three games." "What are you telling yourself?" "I've been in a slump before." "I've been working with the coaches." "AII it takes is a good swing of the bat and I'm back." "He's Benjy's hero." "I thought I was Benjy's hero." "I've noticed the Iast few games, you had a little trouble... with breaking pitches." "What are you doing about that?" "I took a little longer on BP today, and I think I've worked it out." "He loved her." "How do you know?" "MAN:" "Three more home runs." "Four games to go." "Do you still think you can catch DarryI Grant?" "I'm trying to help my team win ball games." "That's all I'm focusing on right now." "I appreciate you taking time to talk to us on your day off." "Best of luck tomorrow." "I'm gonna get him." "SCOTT :" "Hi." "How are you?" "Thanks for coming out." "SCOTT :" "Here you go." "SHARONA:" "Scott?" "No." "It's a note from my friend." "I think you should read it." "We think Erin was the real target of the attack, not her husband." "Why would you say that?" "Think about it." "Think about how you were affected by her death." "Your hitting streak." "Maybe somebody's trying to distract you." "SCOTT :" "I can't believe you said that." "I know this sounds paranoid but I was thinking the exact same thing." "Maybe it was the same guy who attacked you a couple of weeks ago." "SCOTT :" "You heard about that?" "I was outside the stadium." "It was after a game." "Some creep came at me with a baseball bat." "I fought him off." "He disappeared." "Did you get a good look at him?" "No." "It happened too fast." "It's when the team hired HeckIe and JeckIe, here, to baby-sit me." "What about the police?" "What're they doing?" "SHARONA:" "Sometimes it takes them a day or two to catch up with us." "meanwhile, I'm working on it round the clock." "I'm gonna get that other one out in the bleachers." "Thank you." "If there's anything I can do to help, anything at all...." "really?" "Good swing!" "really?" "Yeah." "You're a natural." "Just remember, keep your weight on your back foot." "Don't be afraid of the ball." "SCOTT :" "Yes." "Good hit, Benjy!" "That is a double in any ballpark in this country." "Thank you, Adrian." "I thought I'd thank you now, because in a half an hour... you're probably gonna piss me off again." "You're welcome." "SHARONA:" "Keep your eye on the ball." "SCOTT :" "I miss her so much." "They say when people lose a leg, they can still feel it." "SHARONA:" "That was better." "SCOTT :" "That's what it feels like." "I know." "SHARONA:" "Better." "That was better." "How do you just keep going?" "How do you keep working?" "When Trudy fell in love with me..." "I was a detective." "I was on the street breaking cases." "So I keep working." "I keep trying... to be the man she loved." "That's all you can do." "Be the man she loved." "Hey, Benjy." "Don't forget H.E.L.P." "What's "HELP"?" "H-E-L-P." "Hands together." "elbows up." "level swing." "Patience." "H-E-L-P." "Yeah." "It helps to remember it." "It's...." "What do you call it?" "A mnemonic device." "Sharona, call the Captain!" "CAPTAIN:" "GCE 15P." ""Girls can't eat 15 pizzas."" "It was a mnemonic device." "I understand." "That's good work, Monk." "I remembered how the housekeeper said Lawrence Hammond never forgot a birthday." "A Iot of successful people use tricks to memorise information." "CAPTAIN:" "I said I understand." "MONK:" "Hammond made up the phrase... to help him remember the licence plate of the car that ran him down." "MONK: "G" stands for "girl." SHARONA:" "Adrian." "He gets it, okay?" "We all get it." ""girls can't eat 15 pizzas."" "Captain, the car's hot." "It was stolen from the Presidio Sunday night." "Is this blood on the bumper?" "Yes, sir." "We have a positive match." "It's Lawrence Hammond's." "You ready for this?" "Ready for what?" "Just say it, Randy." "What?" "We found this underneath the rear seat cushion." "It's for one of those global positioning systems." "It's homemade." "The guy programmed it himself." "This is what he used to lure Hammond and his wife to that industrial park." "RANDY:" "Right." "CAPTAIN:" "Okay." "Start putting together a list of computer geeks that can do that." "Yes, sir." "There's more." "would you Iike to share it with us, Randy?" "The shooter abandoned the car in a parking lot." "There was a security camera." "We got a picture of him." "CAPTAIN:" "That's it?" "They can't clean that up?" "It is cleaned up." "I mean, he was 50 feet away." "Should I release it to the press?" "What's the point?" "I've seen better pictures of Bigfoot." "Captain." "I've seen this guy before." "Who is he?" "I can't remember, but I know that face." "I've seen him before." "Somewhere." "I know that face." "I just cannot remember where I've seen it." "Adrian, Iet's put the face aside for a minute." "Let's put the case aside for a while and... we're gonna talk about your life." "I mean after all..." "Adrian, that is what you're paying me for, okay?" "I understand you've been spending a Iot of time with Benjy." "Now, how does that feel?" "He's a great kid." "Yes, I know that." "I'm asking how does that feel?" "It hurts." "It hurts to be with him." "Why?" "You and Trudy ever talk about having kids?" "Trudy used to bring it up." "I said there was no rush." "We had all the time in the world." "could've, should've, would've." "Okay." "well, I hate to end the session on that note... but the hour is up." "No, it's not." "It's only been 57 minutes." "How'd you do that?" "You wearing a watch?" "No." "DOCTOR:" "You could see my watch, right?" "MONK:" "No." "It's a gift." "And a curse." "And a curse." "Okay." "We have a few more minutes left." "What would you Iike to talk about?" "That face!" "I have seen him before." "I know it." "I have seen that guy before." "That guy I have seen him before." "I know it." "Adrian, do you think you've seen that guy before?" "I know I have." "Mr. Monk, Mr. Turrow will see you now." "ANNOUNCER:" "For the best price and quality, come into one of our many..." "Bay Area locations today." "Baseball's Darryl Grant can break the single season record... for home runs, but one thing he can't break is any storm window made by Parson's." "Swiss-tempered, double-laminated safety glass to protect your home... you and your family." "With Parson's storm windows, the only break you'll be seeing is in the price." "darryl, I'm watching it right now." "I've seen it 20 times." "will you relax?" "No." "The lighting's perfect." "You look great." "darryl, I'm gonna have to call you back." "Who loves you?" "Right." "well, who else loves you?" "Me!" "Why do you tease me like that?" "Excuse me." "TURROW:" "What are you doing?" "MONK:" "There was a bit of a smudge..." "like an ink stain." "I think I got most of it." "No." "It's an autograph." "Yeah." "It's a 1988 AII Star game ball signed by michael Jordan." "well, maybe he could sign it again." "Sure." "I'II just call michael, ask him to stop by." "Thank God." "I'm so relieved." "He's being sarcastic." "Give it to me." "TURROW:" "So, what can I do for you, Mr. Monk?" "You represent DarryI Grant." "I have that honour." "That was just him on the phone." "well, as you know, Scott Gregorio is very close to... breaking Mr. Grant's home run record." "Not if he keeps having games like last night." "What was he?" "Zero for three?" "well, we think somebody's trying to get to Scott Gregorio either directly or indirectly." "Get to him?" "You talking about that lunatic with the..." "baseball bat two weeks ago?" "We're talking about a murder." "Friday night, of someone very close to Scott Gregorio." "Wait." "hold it." "You're not saying...." "You can't be saying you think DarryI Grant is involved?" "You can't deny he had a motive." "It's his record Gregorio is trying to break." "Where was your client Friday night?" "DarryI Grant is a sportscaster now." "He was in Chicago covering a doubleheader." "TURROW:" "There were two million people watching." "You want their names?" "SHARONA:" "He could've hired somebody." "TURROW:" "No." "Not DarryI Grant." "Look." "This was taken last year." "This is Jerry Grierson breaking..." "darryl Grant's single season RBI record." "darryl Grant was more proud... of that record than the home runs." "Look at this." "TURROW:" "darryl is the first guy on the field to congratulate him." "darryl Grant's a mensch." "He's a standup guy who realises... that records are made to be broken." "TURROW:" "So I'm sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Monk." "Do I owe you any money for cleaning up?" "No, I don't want any money." "He's joking again." "I was joking back." "Thank you." "Right." "Keep in touch." "Come on, Jared." "Big inning, son." "Big inning!" "Come on." "Crack that outfield, boy." "BOY:" "Come on!"

"Adrian, please." "[Dog barking]" "CAPTAIN:" "walker Browning?" "WALKER:" "Toby!" "Toby, quiet!" "I'm Capt. LeIand StottIemeyer, San Francisco police Department." "This is Lt. Disher, Adrian Monk, Sharona FIeming." "WALKER:" "What's going on?" "RANDY:" "May we come in, Mr. Browning?" "What if I say no?" "Don't say no." "Toby, no." "Stay." "Quiet." "[Dog snarIing]" "Excuse me." "Is that dog dangerous?" "Not to me." "Mr. Browning, you work for Springbook electronics in palo alto?" "Not anymore." "I got laid off in October." "RANDY:" "You worked for their global satellite division, though?" "WALKER:" "That's right." "Can I ask what this is all about?" "Hey." "Is that 73?" "Yes, it is." "please don't touch it." "I won't." "Must have been quite a day for you, catching that ball?" "WALKER:" "Yeah." "CAPTAIN:" "That's a piece of history there." "WALKER:" "Yeah." "I wasn't even planning on going to the ballpark that day." "WALKER:" "Friend of mine had an extra ticket." "It's funny." "Just...." "Your whole life can change." "Just like that." "CAPTAIN:" "Just like that." "I understand you've been in touch with an auction house in New York." "RANDY:" "You selling the ball?" "WALKER:" "Yes." "Yeah." "Toby and I are having a little bit of a cash flow problem." "So I figure the $500,000 could come in handy." "$500?" "No, that ball's worth, Iike, $3 million." "WALKER:" "No." "MONK:" "What would happen, I wonder... if Scott Gregorio broke DarryI Grant's record." "I don't know." "I'II tell you what would happen." "That $3 million baseball would suddenly be worth roughly... nothing." "Yeah, but it doesn't matter, because... the slump Gregorio's in, he's not gonna be breaking any records." "You made sure of that, didn't you, walker." "When you murdered the woman he loved." "MONK:" "Catching that ball must have been the best day of your life." "A few weeks ago, you decided to sell it... but you discovered there were no buyers... because the record was about to be broken." "CAPTAIN:" "So you panicked." "You had to protect your investment." "MONK:" "You went after Gregorio outside the stadium." "You were trying to break a leg or an arm, or anything to keep him out of the line-up." "But that didn't work." "CAPTAIN:" "After that, he was surrounded by bodyguards 24/7." "You knew you'd never have another chance." "SHARONA:" "But he was vulnerable in another way." "He was in love with Lawrence Hammond's wife, and you knew it." "Okay, has that dog been fed recently?" "Hammond the millionaire?" "This is insane." "MONK:" "You knew Hammond's schedule." "The board of directors' meeting was well publicised." "The night before, you broke into his garage... and replaced his global positioning disk with one you programmed yourself." "Hammond followed the directions... and all you had to do was wait." "And all because you wanted to sell a baseball." "No." "You can't prove any of this." "Here's a little tip for you, walker." "Next time you wipe down a stolen car... make sure that you get the adjustment bar under the driver's side seat." "We lifted a thumbprint, and I'm betting it's yours." "Toby!" "Achtung!" "I'm done, right?" "I think I'm done." "Stop." "Monk, stop!" "MONK:" "I'm just gonna leave." "RANDY:" "Get it!" "RANDY:" "Here we go." "CAPTAIN:" "Toby." "Good dog." "Good boy." "CAPTAIN:" "Give me the ball." "RANDY:" "ball." "Toby, give the ball to the Captain." "Give me the ball." "[Toby growIs]" "Toby, release." "Okay." "Just give me the ball." "Monk!" "Toby, sit." "I've never been good with animals." "CAPTAIN:" "Go." "Fetch." "Get the ball." "RANDY:" "Toby?" "Toby, heel." "Toby, freeze." "heel." "Get the dog." "REPORTER:" "You were on pace to break the aII-time home run record." "REPORTER:" "You fell three short." "You disappointed?" "Of course I am." "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't." "Do you have any comment about the arrest of walker Browning?" "According to the district attorney's office, you were the reason..." "he killed Mr. and Mrs. Hammond." "please." "It's my private life..." "I'd Iike to keep it that way." "But, I would Iike to say..." "[Soft instrumental music]" "I met a man recently." "He's become a good friend." "He reminded me there are a lot more important things in life than baseball." "What matters most are the people you love." "Being true to them or their memory, that's the real ball game." "My friend isn't giving up on that, and neither am I." "I'II see you all in spring training." "SHARONA:" "I wish you were at the game." "Benjy hit two singles and a double." "I'm so proud of him." "You should be." "Next time, he's gonna bat cleanup." "Sounds like something you would do." "cleanup." "Get it?" "Yeah, I get it." "Is that Browning's dog?" "I think that's the baseball." "Oh, my God." "Toby." "Drop the ball." "Drop it." "[comical instrumental music]" "SHARONA:" "God." "It's all chewed up." "It's a pretty expensive chew toy." "It sure is." "It's kind of fitting, though, don't you think?" "What?" "Nobody ends up with the money." "A dog chews it all up." "This dog just chewed up $3 million... and I can't even afford a tank of gas." "So you're holding, what, about $20,000 right there." "You could put three, four tanks of premium in your car with that." "MONK:" "You know what?" "Consider that a Christmas bonus." "SHARONA:" "Like you would ever give me a Christmas bonus." "MONK:" "I want you to go out and buy yourself something pretty." "SHARONA:" "Yeah, right." "MONK:" "Don't save it." "You don't have to save the money." "[Theme music]"
