This is one of the episode that makes me cry like a baby. With beautiful performances from everyone involved, the bonding scenes between Monk and Tommy look effortless and sweet, particularly the final scene. Between this episode and when we are introduced to John Turturro's Emmy winning episode Ambrose Monk, the heart of the show was amplified. The "here's what happened" scene when he realizes he's not what's best for Tommy is heart breaking and as I said before, the final scene is both beautiful and tragic, with Taylor Howard also teary eyed. Love love love this episode and the series as a whole.
