Quote from Adrian Monk
[fantasy:]
Trudy: Hello, Adrian. You're not still smelling my pillow, are you? You can't really smell me on that old thing.
Adrian Monk: Sure I can. It's your strawberry shampoo and the lilac lotion you always wore.
Trudy: You never even liked that lotion.
Adrian Monk: I love it now. I love it now. Trudy, it's so hard.
Trudy: I know it is.
Adrian Monk: I screwed up bad. I let a suspect run right by me.
Trudy: You're doing the best you can. I am so so proud of you.
Adrian Monk: Dr. Kroger gave me some pills. He said they might help. But I'm afraid.
Trudy: What are you afraid of?
Adrian Monk: I'm afraid of change. And I'm afraid of not changing. I'm afraid of change, and I'm afraid of not changing. [sobs] What do you think?
Trudy: I want you to be happy. That's all I've ever wanted. Be happy, my darling. You deserve it.
Quote from Adrian Monk
Dr. Kroger: So how was your weekend?
Adrian Monk: This is not the life I wanted. It's unbearable. You know that I envy everybody. Strangers, people on the street. [grabs a tissue]
Dr. Kroger: Maybe they envy you. You're an extraordinary man.
Adrian Monk: Yeah, I don't want to be an extraordinary man. I want to be the guy on the bus coming home at 5:00 to help his kids with their homework. Where's the trash?
Dr. Kroger: It's over there, but you can, you can just put it down there. Just put it right there. It's fine. Go ahead. [Monk puts the tissue down] Good. That's really good.
Adrian Monk: I'm just so tired so tired of being me. For example, that tissue... I know- I know it's crazy. Right now, that's all I can think about.
Dr. Kroger: Adrian, let's not make this about the tissue.
Adrian Monk: You know, sometimes late at night, I start to think that I never really... Oh, forget it. [gets up and take tissue to the trash can] Look at me. I'm, I'm helpless. I'm, I'm pathetic. I'm not even a man. I'm just a... I'm just a broken machine.
Quote from Adrian Monk
Sharona: Will you please call Dr. Kroger?
Adrian Monk: [mocking] Will you please call Dr... I thought you'd be happy for me. But you're just like the others. You're a big L-7. It's a square. That's what you are.
Sharona: Where are you going?
Adrian Monk: New Orleans. Mardi Gras.
Sharona: Mardi Gras's not for another nine months!
Adrian Monk: Hey, you know what they say. Wherever the Monk is, it's Mardi gras.
