Frasier · Season 6
I am going to get another job. The people of this city need me. I'm a beloved Seattle institution.
(to Niles) A couple more days like this, he's gonna be in a beloved Seattle institution.
Frasier, it's all in how you look at things. Look at my life...
[crying] No career, no relationship, no hope!
You can say the same thing about me.
I was talking about you!
[Daphne is relieved when Martin and Niles arrive, as Frasier is depressed after his disastrous job interview]
He mumbled something about it being worse than the Dresden première of Schumann's Second Symphony.
(panics) And you left him alone?!
[Frasier announces his alternative plans for the evening, after deciding not to attend the reunion]
Tonight, I'll be coming back home and spending the evening with Daphne, doing some light housework and listening to my new book on tape: “Depression, Anxiety and Death” as read by the author himself, Stanislav Monk.
Now who's cursed?!
[Niles sees Roz and Martin having coffee together.]
I'm not interrupting anything personal, am I?
[sarcastically] Yeah, Niles, we just eloped. I'm your new mom.
Well, I'll be a son of a bitch.
[Daphne announces that maybe it is time she moved on, since Martin may not need her help any more]
I'm not like a psychiatrist, who works with someone for years and years and it doesn't matter if they ever get better.
Niles, there is another way.
You don't mean...
Yes. I know it's a calculated risk. It is a little uncertain.
You can't be serious. It's unthinkable.
Niles, what other choice do we have?
But the indignity, it reeks of desperation.
Now, now, before you do anything desperate, at least go stand in the cancellation line.
What did he think we were talking about?
[Niles is trying to learn how to smoke, before Stephen Kendall joins him for a cigarette at the intermission]
I haven't held a cigarette since I played Duke Mantee in our junior high production of The Petrified Forest.
Yes, I remember watching you from the petrified audience.
[Frasier decides to attempt a reconciliation with Marie]
Sometimes the best apology is the truth.
You mean you're going to tell her you thought she was prostituting herself for therapy but now you've decided that's OK?
(pause) Well, not that truth. Some other truth!
Niles, Marie is a stunning woman with a body to die for, and you think all I'm interested in is her mind? How shallow do you think I am?
(looking at a gift that came nestled in shredded paper) Look at this mess. Ah, it's too bad it's not bubble wrap. Ha! You don't know what funny is until you've seen Eddie go after a sheet of that stuff. Poppity-pop-pop-pop! He gets all scared and runs away, and then he screws up his courage and comes back again, and - poppity-pop-pop! - he runs away again. Yeah, I watched him for an hour one time. You know, it's amazing how entertained he can be by somethin' so simple... Poppity-pop-pop-pop! (laughs)
Niles tells how he returned Maris's gifts and made it clear to her that it was all over
She didn't get mad. In fact, she was eerily calm. She just stood there with a blank stare on her face, rubbing her ocelot.
You know, they got a cream for that.
Frasier's date was a disaster, and Maris is threatening to ruin Niles
I'll be stripped clean and devoured like an animal!
And I won't be!
Niles has made an emergency stop in his hatchback and fallen off the seat. He is talking to Frasier and Martin on the car phone
Dad, come quickly! I need your help.
Oh, my God! What is it?
I need you to get up here and pretend this is your car.
Martin has been on an epic journey through Niles' apartment to bring him some aspirin
(reads the box) This aspirin's expired.
Well, it wasn't when I found it.
