Dr. Kroger: Adrian.
Adrian Monk: Dr. Kroger, it's me. Adrian Monk.
Dr. Kroger: How did you get here? Where- Where's Natalie?
Adrian Monk: Natalie refused to bring me.
Dr. Kroger: Good for her.
Adrian Monk: I had to take a cab. It was horrible. I'd love to talk to you-
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, no. No. I have told you, I'm retired.
Adrian Monk: Here's the thing. Joseph Wheeler did not kill Teresa.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, I've been talking to the captain. I know that. It doesn't matter which of my patients killed Teresa, it is still my responsibility.
Adrian Monk: But I don't think it was any of your patients. It was not about you at all.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, of course you would say that. You- You want me to come back to work.
