The Best Frasier, Season 2, Episode 5 Quotes

Daphne: [Daphne emerges from her room wearing a red, oriental style dress]
[to Martin and Frasier]
Daphne: Well?
[Martin lets out a wolf whistle]
Frasier: Well, Daphne, very nice.
Daphne: Thank you.
Martin: No, thank YOU.
Daphne: I'd be more flattered if I didn't know how hard up you both are right now. I'm going out with Derek again tonight. But I'm having trouble choosing a fragrance. I've got it pinned down to these two.
[she sprays one]
Daphne: "Heather" - fresh and bouncy as a spring morning, or
[she sprays the other]
Daphne: "Forbidden" - your passport to erotic realms of pleasure.
[Martin and Frasier smell both fragrances]
Martin: How many times you been out with this guy?
Martin: This is our third date.
[Frasier and Martin look at each other]
Martin: Forbidden

Dr. Frasier Crane: Dad, it's not like I did this on purpose, I'm part of a huge investment group.
Martin: You know, I don't get it. You guys stood there and watched me and my friends get all weepy and you didn't say anything.
Dr. Frasier Crane: Well, what did you want us to say? "Say fellas, here's something ironic..."

Martin: [finding out Niles and Frasier's investment group are tearing down Duke's bar] Let me see if I got this right: in the last year, you give my chair away, you lose my dog, and now you demolish my bar. What's next? I'm gonna find out you're the one who shot me in the hip?
Dr. Frasier Crane: I have an alibi for that one.
Martin: You have an alibi for everything.

Frasier: Hi Dad, what are you doing up?
Martin: I reached over in my sleep and Eddie wasn't there.
Frasier: You need a woman, Dad.

Dr. Niles Crane: [Roz spits raisins into a paper cup] Well it's good to see all those years at finishing school haven't gone to waste.

Niles: [smelling Daphne's perfume] Is that "Forbidden"?
Frasier: In every sense of the word.

Daphne: Excuse me? What kind of randy custom is that? First date, second date, whoops, let's all pitch our knickers? The third date might mean that to you Americans, but it takes more than three dates to get bangers and mash with Daphne Moon.

Niles: You mean to say, you can look Dad in the eye, day after day, knowing you have destroyed his sanctuary and not tell him? You can live with that?
Frasier: Niles, you're forgetting. I married Lilith, I can live with anything.

Frasier: [seeing Daphne with her clothes in disarray] Apparently, in England, it's the fourth date.

[Frasier and Niles wonder why Martin invited them to Duke's Bar]
Daphne: Could it be that he just wants to lift a pint with his sons?
Niles: No. Duke's is where dad hangs out with his cop buddies. It's where he goes to escape the stresses, strains, and petty annoyances of everyday life.
Frasier: In other words, us.

Roz: [after shaking vending machine] Wait! Something came out. Oh, damn! Chocolate covered raisins. I'd like to meet the idiot that came up with these. Take a grape, let it shrivel into a disgusting little wart and cover it with perfectly good chocolate. What the hell. I'll just suck the chocolate off.

Daphne: If you ask me, you Americans have an unhealthy obsession with sex.
Martin: Hey, I'm sorry we can't all be as chaste and restrained as the Royal Family!
Frasier: Good one, Dad!
Martin: I've been saving it!

Daphne: I have never met a family that worked so hard at being uncomfortable with each other!

Frasier: What say we go celebrate with a nice dinner at an exclusive boite?
Niles: Yes, but the question remains, what boite?
Frasier: Charise?
Niles: Too noisy.
Frasier: Alsace?
Niles: Too bright.
Frasier: Papillion?
Niles: Too crowded.
Frasier: We've run out of boites.
Niles: A city this size and only three boites.
Frasier: How do we live?
