Monk Quote

[Monk meets "Honest" Jake Phillips at a hardware store]
"Honest" Jake Phillips: Hey, congratulations. [Monk turns to look at Jake] Yeah I couldn't help overhearing. You bought yourself a house. It's a good feeling - pride of ownership.
Adrian Monk: Uh-huh.
"Honest" Jake Phillips: Hey, you know if you want, I can drill a few more holes into that thing for you.
Adrian Monk: Really?
"Honest" Jake Phillips: Yeah, it will just take a couple seconds. I'm the same way about my showerhead - very particular. My girlfriend says I'm "obsessive" about it.
Adrian Monk: I get that all the time.
"Honest" Jake Phillips: Here, let me give you this. [hands Monk a business card] Jake Phillips, Handyman. Answer to a homeowner's prayers right there. [Monk looks at the text on the card]
Adrian Monk: "Honest Jake: No Job Too Small or Too Dirty."
"Honest" Jake Phillips: Yeah, now hang onto that, 'cause you're moving into a new place, and if something's leaking or cracking or bulging, who are you gonna call? [pause; Jake continues in a whisper] Who are ya gonna call?
Adrian Monk: Honest Jake.
