Hi guys,

I just finished my english training with that Mr.Monk episode. It was a perfect practise, really well written dialogs! There are just two moments, where I'm not sure what are that persons saying....I found a video on youtube which contains that moments....Context: That episode was about a chess grandmaster who poisoned his wife, because she was heavily insured. For 10 million dollars.

 

1) Situation from 2:57, sentence by Natalie Teeger...They are talking about how he poisoned her.

Mr.Monk: You dry the sap, you grind it into a powder. A quarter of a gram is enough to kill an adult.

Natalie Teeger: ** had a heart attack.

Mr.Monk: Did look like she had a heart attack. This is how he did it.

Please what did she say at the beginning of that sentence...?

 

2) Situation from 4:00, sentence by captain Stottlemeyer.

Stottlemeyer: Down the hall there ** which I think is a little crooked.

Please what did he say? What's the point? His intension was to take Monk into the empty room where he wanted to say him about not to plant that evidence into that Kloster's house. But what was that word in the middle of that sentence?...

 

Many thanks in advance for your help!...Smile

Best Regards

JCD

Hi Annvan,

- "It would look like she had a heart attack."

Thanks a lot! I had absolutely no idea of what Natalie said there....many thx..SmileYes

- "Down the hall there's a sign..."

Thanks again, but I don't get that sentence. Please, how did he mean that? ...."It seems that down the hall we have an crooked signature?" Or "It seems that down the hall we have an crooked evidence?." Because later he warned Mr. Monk about planting that faked evidence into that house....

thanks again Annvan!

Best Regards 

JCD

I think he meant that in the hall (corridor) in the police station there was a door with a crooked sign on it. Knowing how Mr Monk needs (!) to have everything straight and symmetrical, Capt. Stottlemeyer wanted an excuse to get Mr Monk out of his office and to a more private place - where he could warn him not to plant evidence...

Ha..."Knowing how Mr Monk needs (!) to have everything straight and symmetrical"..I didn't know that, thanks..You're maybe right, because after they entered that room, Mr. Monk was looking for that sign which was supposed to be crooked.(this scene is at the end of that video)...Thanks Annvan.
