[Monk walks into Stottlemeyer's office]
[Not looking up from his desk] Don't you ever get tired of being right?
I do feel tired. More fatigued, really. I don't know if it's from being right or-
It was a rhetorical question, Monk. We might be on to something here. [Hands Monk a file] Jack Whitman. He's been sent up twice, first time for mail fraud and receiving stolen property. Lately, he's been importing rugs.
[Monk looks up from the file]
Rugs?
Yeah, rugs, from places like Chechnya, Uzbekistan. Sound familiar?
[Realizing] The shell casing and the grenade.
The Feds think that he's a major arms dealer. They raided his office six months ago. They came up empty-handed: no guns, no nothing, no paper trail. All they could get him on was tax evasion. He did five months. He just got out last Wednesday.
And two days later, he's on a roof taking shots at Natalie.
Then he joins her campaign, and then he tries to take you out?
What do you think he's after?
[Stands up] I'm not gonna find out. Let's go get him.
I can't go. You're on your own. Natalie's waiting for me downstairs. I have to go vote.
Well, that's good. You're doing your civic duty.
There's that. Also, if I don't vote, Natalie will - you know.
I know.
