Lt. Randall Disher and Captain Leland Stottlemeyer in “Mr. Monk and Mrs. Monk”

If we were both drowning, who would you save?

I don't know, both of you.

No. If you could only save one of us?

Well, I would probably save Monk because he can't swim and I happen to know you're an excellent swimmer.

Suppose I was holding an anchor? . . . Who would you save then?

Well, why don't you let go of the anchor?

It's a family heirloom.

I'm leaving. [walks out]
