Dr. Kroger: A-A-Adrian, what what happened on that roof? A mistake like that, that's not like you.
Adrian Monk: I was distracted. Natalie's daughter called. She was babysitting Tommy.
Dr. Kroger: Wh- What- What did she say?
Adrian Monk: I don't remember.
Dr. Kroger: Oh. I think you do.
Adrian Monk: All right. She spilled some juice, and Tommy was helping to clean it up. It's funny. She said that Tommy was just like me.
Dr. Kroger: And that- And that upset you?
Adrian Monk: No. No, I was flattered. Actually, I've been thinking about calling the case worker and making it permanent.
Dr. Kroger: Well, that's a- That's a pretty big commitment, Adrian. I mean, that's probably the biggest commitment there is.
Adrian Monk: Well, I figure he could do a lot worse for a father than me. Am I right?
Dr. Kroger: Absolutely.
Adrian Monk: For example, what if he were adopted by, uh, well, you know... wolves?
Dr. Kroger: Wolves would probably eat him alive.
Adrian Monk: Which is something I would never do.
Dr. Kroger: Right. No, of course not. Adrian, I know you don't want to hear this.
Adrian Monk: I'm not giving him up.
Dr. Kroger: I'm proud of you for taking Tommy. I'm glad you did it. But in your heart of hearts, I think you know you're not ready for this.
Adrian Monk: I'm not giving him up.
