    Something to do with someone showing their "true colors"?

    hahaha That would be awesome though. Much better than "that is quite right".

    Maybe something similar to the US expression "the cat's out of the bag"?

    I do not know any US sayings, so I can not say if it is similar.

    The other answers given so far were all wrong.

    "The cat's out of the bag" basically means a secret has been revealed. I doubt that has anything to with with "the monkey comes out of the sleeve" though. lol It's just something that randomly popped into my head.

    You are not that far off actually. It means that the truth has been revealed, so I will give you the win on this one!
