- Adrian Monk: So... how long?
- Dr. Matthew Shuler: Two, maybe three days... Now, you're gonna feel... normal for a while. And then there's gonna be some vomiting... followed by death.
- Adrian Monk: Vomiting?
- Dr. Matthew Shuler: That's right. Followed by death.
- Adrian Monk: Vomiting.
- Dr. Matthew Shuler: Yes. Followed by death.
- Adrian Monk: Vomiting!
- Dr. Matthew Shuler: Adrian, I really need you to focus on the last part of that sentence. There's gonna be some vomiting... and then death.
- Adrian Monk: Is there any chance death could come before the vomiting?
- Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: [Turns toward the doctor] Two days?
- [the doctor nods]
- Adrian Monk: I wish it were five.
- Captain Leland Stottlemeyer: Why?
- Adrian Monk: 'Cause it's a bigger number.
