Quotes
-
Dr. Frasier Crane : Niles, because of that woman in there and a scrappy band of Third World rebels, I am this close to getting a national radio show of my own!
-
Claudia Kynock : But I do want to mention that we may be replacing one of our nationally syndicated hosts, The Happy Traveler.
Dr. Frasier Crane : Oh, yes. The Happy Traveler. How's that coming?
Claudia Kynock : Not well. Unless they get more realistic with those ransom demands, he's never coming out of that jungle.
-
Dr. Frasier Crane : [Frasier and Niles are entering Maris' beach house, which has a burglar alarm] I hope you're right about the alarm code, Niles. People do change them.
Dr. Niles Crane : Maris will never change this one. It's her ideal weight, what she weighed at her debutante ball.
[enters the alarm code on the control panel inside]
Dr. Niles Crane : This many pounds and that many ounces.
Dr. Frasier Crane : Good Lord! No one could weigh that and live!
-
Dr. Frasier Crane : [Niles has just called unsuccessfully requested that Animal Control come to remove a dead seal from behind Maris' beach house] Give me that.
[takes phone from Niles]
Dr. Frasier Crane : Hello, this is Frasier Crane. You may remember me from my radio show.
Dr. Niles Crane : Oh yes, that should send the Seal Mobile racing over here.
-
Dr. Frasier Crane : What's the matter, Niles, you couldn't find a demitasse spoon?
-
Dr. Niles Crane : You have no idea how cutthroat my rivals are. They will leap on the tiniest imperfection. Last night, Sebastian Melmoth threw a lavish Japanese banquet. A certain rival spent the entire evening carping about how the obis on the geishas' kimonos were improperly tied.
Dr. Frasier Crane : "A certain rival?"
Dr. Niles Crane : All right, me.
Martin Crane : He had geishas?
Dr. Frasier Crane : That's enough, Dad.
-
Dr. Frasier Crane : Is Claudia here?
Dr. Niles Crane : Yes, and she's dying to talk to you!
Dr. Frasier Crane : Good! Smell my fingers.
Dr. Niles Crane : [sniffing] Ooh, lovely! Tubla rose?
Dr. Frasier Crane : Jasmine.
Dr. Niles Crane : Really!
-
Dr. Niles Crane : [Frasier and Niles are trying to remove the dead seal] We can wrap it in this. Quick, quick, quick.
Dr. Frasier Crane : A peach peignoir?
Dr. Niles Crane : Yes, and I found perfume.
Dr. Frasier Crane : We're giving it a burial, Niles, not a day of beauty.
Dr. Niles Crane : It's to cover the smell, and the peignoir was all I could find. The beds were all stripped, the linen cupboard's locked.
Dr. Frasier Crane : All right, get on with it.
Dr. Niles Crane : [Niles sprays the seal with the perfume] Do you think that helped?
Dr. Frasier Crane : Oh, yes, Niles. It smells so lovely now, it's almost a shame to bury it.
