Monk · Season 7

Natalie, Monk and others in “Mr. Monk Buys a House”

[Monk and Natalie have been shackled by their legs to the claw-footed bathtub, and are trying to undo the restraints]

You're not gonna believe this. He's still not the worst contractor I've ever seen.

Can you reach that hammer? [Points to a spare hammer on Jake's toolbelt]

I'll try. [She barely manages to stretch as far as she can to grab the hammer, which she hands to Monk]

Pull. [Still weighed down by the tub, Monk and Natalie crawl down the hall, dragging the tub with them. Monk takes the hammer, and pounds in a protruding nail, accidentally making a very small hole in the wall]

Now what?

Nothing. That nail was driving me crazy. [He and Natalie stop to catch their breaths]

Oh God!

What?

[Points] He still hasn't fixed that light!

[Monk looks up at the off-centered lamp, then at the inside of the small hole he made while pounding the nail in, and he notices that the framework isn't real]

Oh my God. [He backs away] Oh my God!

[Jake pops his head out from the other side of the wall he is cutting down]

JP"Honest" Jake Phillips

"Oh my God" what? Whaddaya see, hmm? [Monk and Natalie stammer] What do you see? [He walks around the destroyed wall to reach them] What do you see, huh?! [He kicks part of the wall down and finds that the framework is not wooden lattice work] Something there? [He realizes what it is] It's a false wall! There's a reason that light wasn't centered: because this is a false wall! [To Ramone] Come on, move the furniture. Move the furniture! [They move a table]

R"Honest" Ramone

Jake?

JP"Honest" Jake Phillips

It's in here! Take it down! [He and Ramone start tearing down the wall with their pickaxes, and uncover sheets of 1960s cash from the depository robbery. They both laugh in triumph]

R"Honest" Ramone

Jake! Jake! Whaddaya wanna do with your share of the money?

JP"Honest" Jake Phillips

Same thing I'm gonna do with your share: spend it! [He shoots and kills Ramone]

This way.

[As Jake reveals numerous bundles of money behind the fake wall, Monk and Natalie kick it, causing it to fall on top of him and knocking him out]

Is he dead? [To Jake] Are you dead?!

No, he's not dead! He's still breathing. He's gonna wake up any second now.

HELP! SOMEBODY HELP US!

[Remembering what Joseph's niece said about the soundproof walls] Forget it, it's no use! Nobody's gonna hear you!
