Captain Montgomery quotes from Private Practice

That's coarse. A lady never downs a drink in the company of a gentleman.

Addison

Well, you're not a gentleman. You're my father. So, what's her name?

Who?

Addison

Your mistress, I'm assuming you have a mistress in LA, why else would you be here?

Addy...

Addison

I mean, you didn't come when Archer was dying, that wasn't important enough for you. So, I'm thinking there must be a prime piece of ass here on the West Coast to get the Captain to fire up the old jet and come on out.

Well, I see you have changed. The Addison I know didn't use that language.

Addison

Well, the Californian air has done me well. I'm a whole new girl.

I want more best times, just you and me.

Addison

You're not my family. I have a family, they come to work with me every day and we care about each other. We take care of each other and when we lie for each other, it's for a reason, it's for good, it's for lives saved. They're my family not you. I'm sorry, but, not you.

Violet

[in bed with Captain Montgomery] I should do this more often.

Captain Montgomery

Anytime. [he kisses her]

Violet

Sorry, sorry, I can't, I can't.

Captain Montgomery

You don't need to say anything.

Violet

It's just been a long time since I've felt this way. You know, I've been stuck in my head for so long, the idea that I have a body, that I could be touched... Do you mind my scar?

Captain Montgomery

Not at all.

Violet

I can't look at it.

Captain Montgomery

Then don't. It'll fade. And in the meantime, let it be a reminder that you went through something no else quite understands and survived. And that you... you're in the right to do exactly what you want for a while, whether it's this or anything else.

Addison

Just give me one good reason why my entire childhood was a lie. One good reason.

We were trying to protect you and Archer.

Addison

Really? Because I'm a cheater, Archer's a cheater, we're all these awesome cheaters, so you know that's a bunch of crap, protecting us. I want a good reason!

She's the love of my life. [Addison sighs] We've been married for 40 years, 40 years, my entire adult life she has been at my side. I love her. She's my best friend, she's my everything. It's not her fault, you know? She didn't know, we didn't know. And when we did... She's the love of my life. It's complicated. Love is complicated.

Addison

Being a lesbian is not a choice. She's not going to change her mind. Hell, she's practically screwing Susan right under your nose!

The mouth on you, you know? She sleeps with one woman, I sleep with all the rest, so what?!

Addison

And that's good enough for you? My entire life, I thought she was this poor, pathetic woman. I thought it was my job to cover for you, and it made me hate you. Don't you understand, I hated the wrong parent? By cheating, I thought I got it from you, but now I know you're the poor, pathetic one, because you love her and she loves someone else. But you stayed! This like some pathetic, sad, after-school special which is just awful because now, now I hate you both.
