Adrian Monk Quote #2540
Quote from Adrian Monk in Mr. Monk Goes to Group Therapy
Adrian Monk: Oh, my God, we have 48 minutes. It's my last shot. We have to really focus, really focus.
Dr. Bell: Adrian, I don't know how much we can do in one session.
Adrian Monk: Yeah, I made a list of all of my problems here, so...
Dr. Bell: Well, Adrian, that's- That's not how it works. You see, therapy is an ongoing process, and the progress is incremental.
Adrian Monk: Yeah, well, we have to try, okay? Let's knock off as many as we can, all right? "My fear of disappointing my father." Go.
Dr. Bell: Adrian, I'm not comfortable working under this kind of pressure. All right, all right. Hold on. Okay, let's see now. We've talked about this before. The loss of your father came at an impressionable time in your life, and I think it created an emotional vacuum.
Adrian Monk: Yeah, yeah, okay. Forget that one. We'll never get that one. "Germophobia."
Dr. Bell: Adrian, this is not a game show.
Adrian Monk: Germophobia.
Dr. Bell: All right, germophobia. All right, germophobia. Your fear of germs is not unusual. Some people find that it helps to read scientific journals to demystify...
Adrian Monk: Yeah, pass. Okay, "sibling rivalry."
Dr. Bell: Well, I've never met Ambrose.
Adrian Monk: Pass!
‘Mr. Monk Goes to Group Therapy’ Quotes
Quote from Lieutenant Disher
Natalie: So it was suicide?
Adrian Monk: I don't think so. Look at his wrists. Hair has been pulled out. Someone taped them. He was tied up.
Lieutenant Disher: Could be a serial killer. He's killing people according to their phobias. This guy was afraid of heights, so he pushed him off the roof.
Adrian Monk: Augie wasn't afraid of heights. He was afraid of spiders.
Lieutenant Disher: That's different. It's killing people using the opposite of their phobias. The Opposite Killer.
Captain Stottlemeyer: So you're saying the opposite of a spider is a tall building?
Lieutenant Disher: What do you think the opposite of a spider is?
Captain Stottlemeyer: I have no idea, but it's not a tall building.
Lieutenant Disher: Mmm. Tell that to the Opposite Killer.
Natalie: Are you crying?
Captain Stottlemeyer: No, I have allergies.
Quote from Lieutenant Disher
Adrian Monk: Where's the towel? There's no towel next to the pool. I wouldn't go swimming first thing in the morning in October without a towel. I mean, I wouldn't go swimming anyway, but you see what I mean. I think she was killed.
Lieutenant Disher: Let me guess. The victim was not afraid of water. It's him, The Opposite Killer. That's his M.O.
Captain Stottlemeyer: There is no Opposite Killer. If there were, you would have been killed by a falling rocket scientist years ago.
Quote from Harold Krenshaw
Dr. Bell: All right, hold on here. Adrian was trying to warn us.
Harold Krenshaw: A classic cry for help. Or was it an attempt to divert suspicion? Hmm. Do you even have an alibi for Wednesday?
Adrian Monk: No.
Harold Krenshaw: How about when Barbara was killed? [Monk shakes his head] Of course you don't. Here's what happened. The HMO changed their policy, no more private sessions. You were desperate. You needed to kill one of us so there'd be an opening in the group. Do you deny it?
Adrian Monk: [stands up] Of course I deny it.
Harold Krenshaw: Which is exactly what a guilty man would say!
Adrian Monk: That's true.
Harold Krenshaw: Augie was next. You lured him up to the roof. It was easy. He trusted you. But I don't. You're planning to pick us off, one by one, until you have Neven all to yourself. He's the guy.
Dr. Bell: Harold, what you are suggesting is absurd. Adrian's not capable of killing anyone. Mr. Monk, you're not a killer.
