Adrian Monk Quote #1160
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk Goes to the Dentist
Lieutenant Disher: Monk, can I ask you a question? What do you normally charge? You know, for someone who wants to hire you. I mean, not the department. A private party.
Adrian Monk: Like who?
Lieutenant Disher: Like me.
Natalie: Is this about the dentist?
Adrian Monk: The captain called us. He said you had a reaction to the anesthesia. You were probably hallucinating.
Lieutenant Disher: No, I wasn't hallucinating. It really happened. It was as real as you are right now standing in front of me.
Adrian Monk: Randy, I'm not standing. But if you need my help you don't have to pay me. All you have to do is ask. I mean, you're one of my oldest friends. I've known you for years.
Lieutenant Disher: Thank you. I want you to come back to the dentist's office with me.
Adrian Monk: Let me finish. Unfortunately, at the moment, I have a lot of things on my plate.
Natalie: No, you don't.
Adrian Monk: Well, I have this armored car thing. I have to read this whole file that's about 120 pages. And I just found a typo, by the way. And I have to replace the lint filter on my dryer. Filters do not replace themselves.
Natalie: Mr. Monk, can I talk to you for a minute?
Adrian Monk: I have to talk to Natalie for a minute.

Quote from Adrian Monk
Captain Stottlemeyer: You and Monk were there, right? Did you notice anything?
Adrian Monk: No, I wasn't really on my game. I have this thing about dentists. Kroger calls it a supermegaphobia. If germs are here and snakes are here, the dentists are... You see that branch up there? The second one from the top? The one above that one.

Quote from Adrian Monk
Natalie: Mr. Monk, this is Randy we're talking about. He would do anything for you.
Adrian Monk: And I would do anything for him except this, Natalie. I can't do it. I have a thing about dentists.
Natalie: You have a thing about everything.
Adrian Monk: That's true, but dentists are in a separate category altogether, okay? I can't even discuss it. I can't even think about discussing it. I can't even talk about thinking about discussing it.
Natalie: Okay, Mr. Monk, everybody's afraid of dentists.
Adrian Monk: Not like this. Not like this.
Natalie: Okay, okay, okay. How afraid are you? On a scale of 1 to 10.
Adrian Monk: Ha, 10? I am so far beyond 10, I laugh at your 10s. I lie awake at night dreaming about 10s. The chair and the probing and the drilling and the rinsing.
