Quote from Mr. Monk Joins a Cult

Adrian Monk: I'm not afraid of you.
Dr. Kroger: Good. No reason to be. Can I sit down? The Siblings of the Sun. You know, I had some dealings with them. About three years ago, they tried to recruit Harold Krenshaw, but Harold was too smart for them.
Adrian Monk: Nice try, doc. I know all your tricks. Psychiatry was invented by the devil.
Dr. Kroger: Really? Huh, see, I- I didn't know that.
Adrian Monk: That is not just my opinion. That's a fact.
Dr. Kroger: A fact? Like- Like all the facts in this book. Like, oh, "Money begets envy. Envy is the root of all evil." You believe that?
Adrian Monk: If it's in the book.
Dr. Kroger: Cause the father doesn't believe it. He's worth 20 million bucks.
Adrian Monk: He lives in a cabin.
Dr. Kroger: He has seven other houses. Adrian, they did an, expose on him last year. See, now, this here is a little shack in the Cayman Islands. He owns parking lots, karate schools, a cable news channel. Looks like your messiah's been a pretty busy guy. He's using you, Adrian. That's what he does. That's all he does.
Adrian Monk: I love him. He's taught me what love really means.
Dr. Kroger: That's funny. That's what you used to say about Trudy. I wonder what she would say if she were here.
Adrian Monk: She's not here. Father's here.
Dr. Kroger: Well, then I guess we can just throw this out, right? [scrunches up photo of Trudy]
Adrian Monk: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. [straightens out picture] Trudy.
Dr. Kroger: Welcome back. [beeper rings]
Adrian Monk: Your beeper.
Dr. Kroger: Yeah, sorry. Doctors have to carry them. [Monk stands up] You're all right?
Adrian Monk: I think I just solved the case.

Quote from Mr. Monk and the TV Star

Adrian Monk: He's seducing them all, one by one. It's easy for him. He's an actor. He lies for a living.

Adrian Monk: There was a cast party last night. Everybody went.
Dr. Kroger: Except you. How did that make you feel?

Dr. Kroger: Robbie Walover. Did- Did he live over on Hillside Avenue?
Adrian Monk: Yes.
Dr. Kroger: I knew him. My mother was friendly with his mother.
Adrian Monk: Were you at the party?
Dr. Kroger: Yeah.
Adrian Monk: Was it great?
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, you don't wanna know.
Adrian Monk: No, no.
Dr. Kroger: Okay, yes. Okay, fine. It was... Yes, it was, um It was pretty great. Yeah, it was great. We went to Candlestick Park. I met Willie Mays.

Quote from Mr. Monk and the Girl Who Cried Wolf

Dr. Kroger: Adrian! Harold! When you're in your own homes, you can arrange everything just the way you'd like. This happens to be my office. If things are a little messy, I like it that way. I hope you'll both respect that. Harold, would you like to step in? I'll be with you in a minute.
Adrian Monk: Yes, why don't you go in the office now?
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, I'll take care of it from here. Thank you. Harold, go in the office. I'll be there in a second. Thank you, Harold.
Adrian Monk: I'll see you in hell, Harold.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian.

Quote from Mr. Monk Takes His Medicine

Dr. Kroger: All right, look, Adrian, maybe I can help you. I know how you feel about medication.
Adrian Monk: No, no, no. No pharmaceuticals. We talked about this.
Dr. Kroger: Yes, we did talk about that, but there is a new drug that's just been approved. It's called doxinyl, and the side effects are supposed to be minimal, and I really think that it might help in your case.
Adrian Monk: I can't do it. The thought of chemicals inside me, in my head... I can't do it.
Dr. Kroger: All right, we can take it slow. We can start off with, with half a dose. All right, look. Uh... This... This is enough for one week, and it's... [After Monk looks at the drug cabinet's open door, Dr. Kroger closes it] This is enough for one week, okay? So you keep those with you. If you're feeling overwhelmed, take one, but call me so that I can just monitor your reaction.
Adrian Monk: I can't do it.
Dr. Kroger: Nobody is forcing you, Adrian. Keep them with you, just in case.

Quote from Mr. Monk Gets a New Shrink

Lieutenant Disher: Well, there was an extra set of keys in the desk out front. Which wasn't locked. Somebody could've lifted them and made a copy.
Dr. Kroger: Wait, wait, you're saying one of my patients?
Captain Stottlemeyer: To be honest with you, Doc, that's how it looks. We figure somebody broke in, looking for a file. Probably his own file. Look, I realize that you're reluctant here, but I happen to be a homicide detective, and this happens to be a homicide investigation.
Dr. Kroger: I- I understand.
Captain Stottlemeyer: I truly hope you do, because if you do know something... If you believe one of your patients could be involved in this, you are legally obligated to help us out here. Go on, ask your lawyer. He'll tell you. [Kroger's lawyer nods]
Dr. Kroger: All right. There is one patient. He's delusional, borderline schizophrenic. He always thought that I was talking to his ex-wife behind his back. He wanted to see his file to prove that I wasn't lying. Of course I refused. He threatened me. He- He threatened to break into my office. I didn't think he meant it. What have I done?

Quote from Mr. Monk Gets a New Shrink

Adrian Monk: Here's the thing. At the crime scene, my file happened to fall open, and I accidentally read something. Something you had written. A notation. It's no big deal.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian. Not a good time.
Adrian Monk: No, I-I understand. I understand this has been a tough day. A woman was slaughtered in your office, for God's sake. This can wait until Monday.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, I'm not going to be in my office on Monday.
Adrian Monk: Perfectly understandable. You need some time. I'll see you Wednesday.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, you may as well be the first one to know. I'm quitting my practice. I'm retiring.
Natalie: As of when?
Dr. Kroger: As of ten minutes ago. I have some money saved. Maybe- Maybe I'll do some writing.
Adrian Monk: As you both know, I don't have much of a sense of humor, so sometimes it's hard for me to tell-
Natalie: Mr. Monk, he's not joking.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian. I cannot continue to practice any more after today. The police think that one of my patients killed Teresa Mueller. I should have seen it coming. I didn't. I missed it. This is all my fault.

Quote from Mr. Monk Gets a New Shrink

Dr. Kroger: Dear, no, no. Don't- Don't answer that. Wait for the police to come.
Madeline Kroger: It's Adrian Monk.
Adrian Monk: Mrs. Kroger. Is there a problem?
Madeline Kroger: Somebody threw a rock. It broke a window in the bedroom. How did you get here so quickly? We just called 911 30 seconds ago.
Adrian Monk: Well, I...
Dr. Kroger: Have you been out there all this time? It's been three hours. What have you been doing?
Adrian Monk: I was looking for my, uh...
Troy Kroger: Hey Dad! Telegram for a Dr. Kroger.
Dr. Kroger: "Dr. K, you ruined my life. You will pay."

Quote from Mr. Monk Gets a New Shrink

Troy Kroger: Where? My dad thinks I did it.
Dr. Kroger: Troy, that's not true.
Troy Kroger: Yeah, right. Before you guys got here he asked me if I did it. Why don't you admit it? Why are you afraid of telling the truth? What kind of shrink are you, afraid of the truth?
Dr. Kroger: Troy, I'm sorry, I was upset!
Lieutenant Disher: Hey, Troy, remember me?
Troy Kroger: Yeah, I remember.
Lieutenant Disher: You, uh, staying out of trouble?
Troy Kroger: No.
Dr. Kroger: All right, why don't you just wait upstairs, son?
Troy Kroger: I told you, never to call me that! Look, officers, is there a way that a doctor could fix a DNA test? Because there is no way Charlie and me are related.
Dr. Kroger: Troy, please.
Troy Kroger: You're not my mother, Madeline! And that man is certainly not my father!
Madeline Kroger: He's your father, Troy, you're going to have to accept that!
Troy Kroger: No!
Dr. Kroger: Hey, what do you want from me? I've taken the test three times!
Troy Kroger: Whatever!

Adrian Monk: Maybe I'll call him.
