Carla, good news. I've given a lot of thought and I decided to offer my employees a group medical plan.

Carla

Oh man, that's great Sammy. What changed your mind?

It's the right thing to do. You guys need it. You deserve it. It's important to you. Plus they passed some kind of law.

S10 E14 No Rest for the Woody
View quote →

Carla, you can't believe God has a personal vendetta against you.

Carla

Look at my kids. Look at my husbands. Look at my life. What do you think?

S10 E15 My Son, the Father
View quote →
HHenderson

Do you have a Clavin here?

Carla

Yeah, but it hasn't been flushing right lately.

S10 E17 A Diminished Rebecca with a Suspended Cliff
View quote →

Everyone, I have an announcement to make. You may not have noticed but over the last year I've allowed myself to gradually fall out of shape. I'm frequently tired and I find I no longer have the energy for some of my daily activities.

Or some of your weekly ones.

Which is why Richard here is going to put me on a strict exercise and diet regimen. Now you may ask, "Why is Frasier sharing this information with the general public?"

Carla

Because you're the loneliest man on earth.

He has another reason.

S10 E19 Rich Man, Wood Man

Carla

I think you're gonna be surprised, ‘cause Sam's gonna make this team. Right guys?

Right, of course, he's Mayday Malone.

Yeah, but hold on there, Norm, what if he doesn't? Have you thought about that? A thing like that can really hit a guy hard. He'll probably storm back in here, go in the office, lock himself in, and maybe start taking inventory of his life. Peruse over the setbacks, the humiliations, the wrong turns, and all the while fashioning his belt into a makeshift noose. I mean we've all done it a hundred times.

You okay, Cliff?

What are you asking me for, Sam's the one with the problem.

S10 E21 Take Me Out of the Ball Game
View quote →

Well, I'm off. I don't know what the future holds. Whatever happens, I only hope I can realize my full potential. To acquire things the old Lilith never had.

Carla

Like a body temperature?

That's very good, Carla. Incidentally, I've taken your little wisecracks for a few years now, you hideous gargoyle, and if you ever open that gateway to hell you call a mouth in my direction again, I'll snap off your extremities like dead branches and feed them to you at gunpoint.

Carla

Well, that was just rude.

JAJohn Allen Hill

Ah, Miss Tortelli... is that a new hairdo, or did someone toss a toaster in your bathtub? What am I saying - what would you be doing in a bathtub?

Carla

Cleaning you out of the drain.

JAJohn Allen Hill

Yeasty oil slick!

Carla

Bladder polyp!

JAJohn Allen Hill

Man witch!

Carla

Perverted goat boy!

JAJohn Allen Hill

Sluttish mole!

Carla

Seven o'clock tonight?

JAJohn Allen Hill

Make it 6:30.

S11 E9 Feelings... Whoa, Whoa, Whoa
View quote →

[after Sam suggests he begin dating] Look, I just came off a seven year marriage. It's hard to think of replacing Lilith.

Carla

Just go to the morgue and open any drawer.

S11 E11 Love Me, Love My Car
View quote →

Who'd have thought it, Rebecca and Frasier? What's next, me and Carla!?

[Carla grabs him by the back of the head]

Carla

Don't say it, Clavin, don't you even think it!

S11 E17 The Bar Manager, the Shrink, His Wife and Her Lover
View quote →

[Sam is locked out of his place and comes to Carla's]

Carla

Well, I guess you can stay here for the night.

Yeah, yeah. Alright, thanks.

Carla

Look, Sammy.

What?

Carla

No matter what you hear, no matter how much I scream or call for help... do NOT open the bedroom door. Got it?

JAJohn Allen Hill

Ditto for me, too, Sam.

Oh, no no... [he leaves]
