This episode has one of the most brilliant lines in the entire series. Captain Stottlemeyer once again checks in with Monk to see if he's ok with another Trudy and he replies something like "Yeah, everyone should have a Trudy in their life." Written out this a powerful testament to his character on par with the many times he's given up love or failed to find love. A normal character might become bitter and resentful but Adrian carries bitterness as a facade. The fact that for him it's not even a consideration that more Trudys is a good thing even if they aren't his Trudy is just genius. It's why we love him.
