"Out of the way!" "Out of the way!" "This is Disher." "We're in pursuit on foot." "West on Charleston." "Suspect is armed and dangerous." " Out of the way!" " Repeat, armed and dangerous." "He's wearing a beige suit and a purple shirt." "I think it's purple." "It might be lavender or mauve, I'm not sure." "Randy, nobody cares about the shirt!" "Request backup." "We need backup!" "Freeze!" "Freeze!" "Let the girl go!" "Don't move!" "Put the gun down!" " Let the girl go, Escobar." " I swear to god, I'll kill her!" " Everybody relax." "Relax!" " Let the girl go!" " You put the gun down now!" " Okay." "Put it down." "Put it down." "Okay." "That's him." "That's Miguel Escobar." "Which I saw him on the news." " He's the number 1 most wanted man!" " Yeah, not any more." " Would you do me a favor, captain?" " Shut up!" "Call my fiancee." "And tell her that the wedding's still on." "And don't cancel anything." "Tell her I'll be back home in Bogota, Colombia real soon." "Yeah, right." "MONK Season 4 Epi. 16 Mr. Monk Gets Jury Duty" "Good morning." "Picked up your mail." "What is going on?" "I'm having fun." "I love this stuff." "Yeah, so I see." "You know, I usually don't like shaking hands, but I ever met the man invented Tupperware," "I would shake his hand." "I think he might be dead." "Well, I would still shake his hand, because he's probably perfectly preserved." "All right, look." "It's virtually airtight." "Look at this." " Uh-oh." " Uh-oh what?" "Uh-oh nothing." "I'll show you later." "What?" "What, what is that?" "Don't worry, you don't have to report for weeks." "Report for what?" "I've been drafted?" "They've reinstated the draft." "I'm gonna have to shower with..." "naked people, naked." "Naked naked..." "men with..." "Mr. Monk, you're not being drafted." "You have jury duty!" "Oh, my god." "Oh, my god." " I'm gonna get picked." " Mr. Monk, you're not gonna get picked." "You're ex-police officer." "You have tons of friends on the force." "I've been to plenty of trials." "Ex-cops get picked all the time." "I can't believe they're still renovating this place." "They should put up a sign, "your tax dollars not at work."" "Mr. Monk, you're not moving." " I'm not?" " No, you're not." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Go on." "Here you go." "You're walking." "Look at you." "I'm so proud of you." "I'm gonna get picked." "Take that please?" " Here you go." " Thank you." "Mr. Monk, you're gonna have to take off your belt." "Ah, I was going to anyway." "To hang myself." "Don't get me wrong, it's a great system." "It really is the best justice system in the world. / I agree." "I just don't wanna be a part of it." "Mr. Monk, what if everybody felt that way?" "Everybody does." "Mr. Monk, I don't understand." "You've dedicated your life to fighting crimes, right?" "Solving mysteries, sending guilty people to jail?" "Well, you can do that here." "That's what juries do." "It's the same thing." " But I work alone." "I'm a lone wolf." " You're a lone wolf?" "Even when I was the force, I didn't really like having a partner." "I can't work with other people." "Okay, well, I think that's kind of sad." "I agree." "That's very sad." "You know, I hope you do get picked." "I think it'd be good for you." "Don't say that. / You know, you work with different kinds of people." "You know, you listen to their opinions, argue, compromise." "Thank you, Natalie." "I, I know you mean well." "I'd rather be sucked out of an airplane window." "Good afternoon, I am live from in front of San Francisco police department." "Look, it's the captain." "We're here waiting for Miguel Escobar to return from his pre-trial arraignment." "Here he is!" "Sergeant, sergeant Stottlemeyer!" " Excuse me, can we get a word, please?" " No comment." "Actually, it's "captain."" "Yeah, captain Leland Stottlemeyer, with three T's, four, if you count the one in "captain."" "Escobar has already escaped twice." "Do you think he'll try again?" "We're taking every precaution to avoid that." "Isn't that what they said last time?" "I wasn't in charge last time." "Hello." "Did everybody sign in?" "If I call your name, you are required to come back tomorrow morning at 9 A.M." "and report to room 302." "If you do not hear your name... you are excused." "Here it comes." " Adrian Monk!" " There it is." "Yes!" "Is this a bad time?" "Yeah, it is now." "Randy, you remember special agent Lapides." "Actually, I'm not alone." "I'm here with the attorney general." "The attorney general of the United states?" "He's in here." "You wanna read it?" "I don't need to read it." "I'm not giving you Escobar." "No way, no how." "Leland, this case is bigger than San Francisco." " Escobar was supplying drugs to seven states." " Yeah, but we caught him here." "Damn right we did, and we got him on homicide." "Right here in the city of San Francisco." "This case represents three years in my life." "Well, you have thanks for the great nation." "But it's a done deal." "A federal indictment's already been filed." " We're gonna try him first." " Sons of bitches." "There's an extradition hearing on Thursday." "Here's how it's gonna work." "You baby-sit Escobar until then." "You bring him to courthouse, we meet you in the lobby, you drop the mob, you go home." "What's that, sir?" "Yeah." "I'll tell him." "The attorney general says," ""don't screw it up."" "Mr. Daughtry, it says here you've been excused from jury duty three times before?" "Yeah, I got a business to run." "Well, you're going to find someone else to run it." "The defense accepts you, so does the prosecution." "So do I." "Have a seat." "You're juror number 10." "Okay, next stand up." "State your name." " Uh, Natalie Teeger." " Spell it." "Oh, no, I wasn't called." "She's my assistant, your honor." "And you are..." "Adrian Monk." "Capital A. small D, small R, small I, small A, small N. Space." "Thank you, Mr. Monk." "I think we have it." "Your honor..." "I will not be able to serve today unfortunately." "For a number of reasons." "First off..." "There's the bathroom situation." "I can't share a bathroom." "I just can't." "You can ask Natalie." "Natalie?" "Yeah, he's persnickety." "He's very persnickety." "He's persnickety squared." "And I have special dietary needs, your honor." "I can't eat food unless I actually see it being prepared." "That's true, your honor." "Anything else?" "Yes, sir." "I have two plants at home that are completely dependent on me, your honor." "Plants." "I have a fern and a small azalea bush." "And you have an assistant." "Can't she water the plants?" "Good question." "Here's the thing." "She has a tendency to overwater." "Okay, that is not true." "That happened once." " More than once." " It was two ounces." "Two ounces to an azalea bush..." "That would be like a swimming pool." "Okay, wait..." "Mr. Monk, I have seen hundreds of people pretend to be disturbed to avoid jury duty, but you, sir, are in a class by yourself." " You're too kind." " Well, it's not gonna work, sir." " You have a seat, Mr. Monk." " Objection." "You're juror number 11." "It's okay, Mr. Palmer." "Take your time." "Could you show us exactly where you were stabbed?" "Right here in the thigh." "Mr. Monk, you have to look!" "Number 11, evidence is presented, sir, for you." "What did you do then?" "I was bleeding pretty bad so I grabbed an old towel out of my car." "There was one on the floor." "And I pressed it against the wound." "Whose phone was that?" "It's hers, your honor, number 3." "And she fell asleep." " Yeah, you." "Number 8, your honor." " Nobody likes a tattletale, Mr. Monk." "I think number 9 is a tattletale." "That'll do, Mr. Monk." "Proceed, Mr. Fox." "What happened after you were stabbed?" "He grabbed my deposit envelope and took off." "Carl, is the person that stabbed you at that rest stop, took your money and ran away, in this court room today?" "Yes, sir." "He's right there." "What are you doing?" "He needs a wipe, your honor." "Sit down, miss Teeger." "Sit down." "Now, if you interfere with the jury again," "I will have you arrested for tampering and contempt, understand?" "Yes, sir." "Sorry." "Let the record show that the witness has identified the defendant, Robert Perry." "Oh, my god." "No cell phones are allowed." "You'll get them back when you're done." "I'll be down the hallway if you need me, just ring the buzzer." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Okay." "What did you think?" " I thought it was pretty interesting." " Very interesting." "I filled up three notebooks." "What are you doing?" "I'm just making them even." "So we can all concentrate." "And not be distracted by uneven Venetian blinds." "Okay, everyone, let's get stared." "And I've done this before, so, uh," "I would be glad to be our foreman if there are no objections." "No." "No. / All right, great, well, let's all have a seat." "Actually, it'd be be best if we all sat in order." "If you don't mind, I'm juror number 7 and... we go this way, number 8..." "and so forth." "Okay, great." "You look happy." "This is very exciting for me." "I feel like a real American." "Excuse me?" "Yeah?" "Do you mind if we traded seats?" "Why?" "I'd rather be number 10, my favorite number." "It's kind of important to me." "Look, the guy is trying to change seats." "You know what, pal?" "Nobody's trading anything with you." "Now sit down, okay?" "I mean it." "Sit, okay?" "So I've been on a few juries." "And it's customary to start off with a preliminary vote by secret ballot, just to see where we all are." "Any objections?" " Not at all." " None." "Great." " Oh, here you go." " Thanks." "Anybody mind if I, uh, smoke?" "All right, all right, all right." "I'm not the one on trial." "Okay, folks, huh?" "Just pass them down, please." "All right, let's do this." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Guilty." "Wow, that was easy." "Guess I'll be home for dinner." "Wait a minute." "That was only 11." "Who didn't vote?" "Smudge." "You gotta be kidding." " Thank you." " It's no problem." "Not guilty." "That makes it 11 to 1." "There's always one, isn't there?" "Always one." " Do you really think he's not guilty?" " I don't know." "Of course he's guilty." "Look at the evidence." "They found the knife, the knife he used in his knapsack." "Plus the victim identified him." "I mean, what more do you want?" "I have no, I have a feeling there's more to it." "It's a feeling." "I would just like to think about it for a while." "What there left to think about?" "He's guilty." "I'm gonna need you all to be quiet." " Yeah, you get quiet." " Quiet!" "Concentrate." "I'm gonna walk around now." "And pace back and forth." "Then, when I'm ready, I'll tell you the solution." "That's how it works." "No." "No way." "You're not alone here." "You have to talk to us." " Tell us what you're thinking." " That's not how I do it." "I have a system." "It's a gift and a curse." "Here's the thing, I don't like working with partners." "Well, like it or not, you've got 11 partners now." "Pay attention, I'm only gonna say this once." "Escobar's hearing is tomorrow at 12 noon." "We lock this joint down tonight at midnight, every exit, every window." "1 A.M., we sweep for bombs." "Head to toe." "6 A.M., I want snipers on this roof and on the roof next door." "We arrive 11:30." "11:40, we meet Lapides at the elevator and hand him off." "After that, he's the bureau's headache." " Sir, could you repeat that, please?" " Yeah, what part?" "Uh, everything after "Pay attention, I'm only gonna say this once."" " Exhibit 15B." " Thank you." "What's he doing now?" "We're not sure." "Did you talk to the judge?" "He says it's too late." "He's already sent the alternates home." "You're stuck with him." " Bless you." " Thank you." "Excuse me." " Would you mind trying these on?" " What for?" "You're about the same height of the victim, and I just want to try something." "It'll just take a minute." "What do you got?" "A fashion show, huh?" "I can't believe this guy." "We know these are the pants the victim was wearing when he was attacked." "Could you step up, please?" "Of course, you can see where the knife went through the fabric." "Well, something doesn't add up." "I notice Mr. Palmer likes to wear his pants low." "In the courtroom, we could almost see his... bottom part." "Rear posterior, side..." "His butt?" "Thank you." "Look at the wound." "He was actually stabbed in the upper thigh." " It doesn't match up." " He's right, look at that." "At least, not when he's standing." "Could you have a seat, please?" "Son of a bitch." "He was sitting down." "What does that prove?" "Mr. Palmer said he was standing up when he was stabbed. / He was lying." "I think he pulled into that rest stop, saw Robert Perry who was sleeping, stabbed himself, pocketted the money, and then blamed everything on Perry." "I'm switching my vote..." "to not guilty." "Oh, come on. / What?" "That is ridiculous?" "Why would he stab himself?" "We, we, we should listen to this man." "He was a very brave man to stand up against us all." "What about the DNA evidence?" "You can't just ignore that." "Found victim's blood on Perry's knife?" "How do we know it was Robert Perry's knife?" "He denied ever seeing it." "Of course he denied it." "What the hell do you expect?" " Well, his prints weren't on it." " Well, then, he wiped them off, huh?" "Look, it was in his knapsack!" "What the hell kind of a detective are you?" "I'm the kind of detective who wonders why someone would take the time to wipe down the handle, but not the blade." "Also, the timeline is all wrong." "Robert Perry was picked up an hour after the assault." " Less than two miles from there." " So what?" "He wasn't running away." "If I had just stabbed somebody..." " Somebody moved that tarp." " Excuse me?" "There is a dumpster down there with a tarp in it." "Yesterday the tarp was rolled up and draped over the side." "What does it have to do with us or this case?" " Or anything?" "I'm sorry, you're right." "You're right." "Okay, what's next?" "The money." "Okay, the money." "What happened to the money?" " Maybe he buried it." " Lime." "Somebody poured lime all over that tarp." "I think there's a body down there." "Oh, we're never getting out of here." " Hello, I'm number 11." " Yeah, I remember." "I know this sounds crazy, but there's a dumpster downstairs." "I saw a police dog sniffing around." "I think there's a body under that blue tarp." "Judge Rienzo said I should keep an eye on you." "He said to report you if you cause any delay or disruption." " Is that what you're doing?" " No." "No, no, no." "Natalie!" "Natalie!" "Mr. Monk, I brought your dinner!" "I'm gonna leave it downstairs!" " Dumpster!" " What?" "Dumpster!" "It's Natalie." "There's a body in the dumpster!" "You want a hot toddy at Munster?" "I brought a cobb salad!" "There's a body the dumpster!" "I just got the cobb salad!" "What are you talking about?" "What are you talking about?" "There is a..." "dead.... body..." "in the dumpster." "Call captain Stottlemeyer!" "Okay, wait, a body?" "Okay, okay, okay, okay." "We should not listen to this man." "He is ruining America for everybody." "Tell me again." "I've been called away from the most important case of my career because..." "Because Mr. Monk said he saw a body." "From up there." "From the third floor." "While he was deliberating on another case." "Captain!" "We got a body." "Rope everything off." "That side, too. / Yes, sir." "Natalie, don't touch anything." "Well, he was right about the body." "People, whatever happened down there has nothing to do with us." "We still have a job to do." " Maybe we should take another vote." " Good idea." "Let's just see who stands where, all right?" "Everybody back." "Now, just by a show of hands, who's still voting guilty?" "Guilty." "Not guilty." "6 to 6." "And we go into extra innings." "Mr. Monk, it's a woman!" "She's about 60 years old!" " Who is she?" " No ID." " No ID!" " No idea?" "No ID." "No idea." "No ID!" "No idea?" "No..." "I..." " D!" " No idea." "No..." "Okay, here." "I..." "D!" "No idea?" " No ID!" " No ID!" "No idea?" "Check her identification!" " No ID!" " No ID!" " Are those orthopedic shoes?" " What?" "Those shoes, orthopedic shoes." "Yeah, I think so." "I remember I saw her in the waiting room!" " I think she's a juror!" " What?" " A juror!" " What?" " A juror!" " What the hell is that?" "Looks like one of your jurors leaning out of a window talking to a police officer." "I want that jury sequestered as of now." "What is it doing?" "You were smoking." "I'm allowed to smoke." "Read the sign." "It's keeping me awake." "You're gonna start a fire." "So there's no problem." "You're awake, right?" "If there is a fire, you'll see it and put it out, right?" " Hey, right?" " Right. / Right." "Don't be such an ass in the jury room." "Good night." "Good night." "I'd like to confirm a reservation for tomorrow afternoon." "My reservation number is X 73294." "Yes, flight 32 to Bogota." "The two of us, me and my husband." "4:30." "Don't worry, we won't be late." " Lieutenant, my nose itches." " Forget it." "Ah, it doesn't matter." "I'll scratch it myself soon enough." "Captain, he just said he gonna scratch his nose." "Okay." "The way he said it was like a threat." "He threatened to scratch his nose?" "Lieutenant, bring the van around." "Let's get this over with." "Not guilty?" " It's still 8 to 4." " Is that clock right?" "Number 11, you've made some really good points." "I admit that." "But everything you said about the timeline, the location of the wound, is all circumstantial." "Exactly, what he's doing is he's taking the facts and twisting them around like a pretzel." "Now, where's the proof, man?" "We don't need any proof." "All we need is a reasonable doubt." "You know what I say?" "I say we're at a deadlock." "And I say we go back in there right now and tell them we got a hung jury." "What is he doing?" " I'm afraid to ask." " Excuse me." "Carl Palmer testified that after he was stabbed, he grabbed this towel off the floor of his car." " And he pressed it against his leg." " So?" "Well, look at the stains." "They're symmetrical." "I don't think he just grabbed the towel." "I think he folded it." "Very carefully." "Before he used it." "You know..." "You, you know, so what?" " The guy was a neatnik." " He was in pain." "He'd just been stabbed." "Nobody would stop to fold a towel." "That's right." "He folded the towel before he stabbed himself." "It was definitely self-inflicted." "I'm convinced." "Me too." "Not guilty." "Thank you." "What about you?" " Not guilty." " Here we go." "I'd like another vote. / Absolutely." "All of those voting not guilty?" " I'm switching my vote to guilty." " What?" " Why?" "What, what, what about the towel?" "It means nothing to me." "The vote's 11 to 1." "Where are you going?" "To the bathroom." "You got a problem with that?" "Can you believe that?" "No, I can't." "You're a science teacher, right?" "Is it what I think it is?" " It's lime." " That's what I thought." "I think number 12 murdered that woman in the dumpster." "Why?" "She needed to get on a jury." "I remember her talking to a woman in the assembly room." "I think she was looking for someone who lived alone with no family, who wouldn't be missed." "Killing somebody to get on a jury?" "That's a first." " She's been looking at that clock all day." " That's right." "She's, She's waiting for something." "She's stalling us." "She doesn't care what the verdict is." "Whatever way we vote, she will vote the opposite." "But in the first ballot, she voted with us." "But she was sitting next to me." "She must have seen how I was voting and went the other way." " I don't believe it." " I can prove it, I think." "But I'm gonna need your help." "No, wait a minute." "We can't just..." "Yesterday, you said we were partners." "I can't do this alone." "What'd I miss?" "Well, we were just talking and..." "Well... we thought about it and we decided that you were right." "He's guilty." " Really?" " Yeah, we're all changing our vote." " In fact, let's make it official." " Right." "Who's voting guilty?" "I'm undecided." "I..." "Just give me a few minutes." "What are you up to?" "I have every right to change my mind." "I think it's time to call the bailiff." "Have a seat, number 11." "We're still deliberating." "Number 11, I have to thank you." "I had to keep everybody here in this room busy arguing for a day and a half." "I wasn't sure how I was gonna do it, but you made it easy." " Don't mention it." " Why are you doing this?" "She's helping her boyfriend escape." "She had to have a way to get into this building." "How about a little privacy, huh?" "Not even." "It's not even..." " Shut up!" " It's not even." "I've been waiting a long time to do this." "It's not even." "Listen, did you check upstairs?" "There is a drop ceiling..." "Whatever it is, captain, We got it covered." "Okay." " What's that?" " It's your receipt." "Why don't you keep it as a souvenir?" "What's going on?" "Mr. Monk, are you okay?" "Oh, my god." "Oh, my god." "Mr. Monk, what happened?" "What?" "Hold on." "What?" "What?" "I was saying for the love of god, please don't rip off the tape!" "You guys okay?" "Is everyone all right?" "You did it, preciosa." " Hey." " Disher." "Give me a pack of Juicy Fruit." "Shots fired, third floor." "Oh, god!" "Give me paramedics on three." "We're in the north wing." "We have two agents down." "They are gonna be okay." "They were both wearing vests." "They went up." "Why would they go upstairs?" "Can I use that phone?" "Well, he didn't come through here." "Get somebody in the basement." "Get somebody in the basement." " Lock down the parking garage." " Disher." "Captain!" "Captain!" "It's Monk." "Monk?" " Right here, this way." "Slowly." "Calm." "Outside." "Look out, look out!" "Hello, Miguel!" "And you must be the fiancee." "Aren't you supposed to be upstairs?" "Some people would do anything to get out of jury duty." "Step down, please." "Come on." "This is number 6." "She didn't say much, but she was a very important part of the team." " Stay cool." " I will." "I'll stay cool." "Yeah." "Part of the team, huh?" "Good for you. / Yeah." " And this is number 2." "Natalie." " Hello." "You should listen to this man." "He is good for America." "And this is number 7." "We were kinda co-captains, really." "I mean, sort of." "I think and..." "That's number 4." "He sorta hated my guts in the beginning." "You can admit it now." "I'll see at the reunion, okay?" "One year from today, Benihana's." "You know, that's not gonna happen." " I think I'll stay and straighten up." " No." " We're going." " Yeah."
