He is furious when the attendant says that he owes two dollars (the fee for parking for twenty minutes or less), and decides to park his car at the gate until his twenty minutes is complete. He refuses to allow Niles to pay for him because he thinks he is taking an important stand. All of the motorists become irate because Frasier is keeping them trapped in the garage. Niles disagrees with Frasier, but reluctantly stays with him to show his support. Even after he is offered several chances to leave without paying, Frasier refuses to move.

Martin tries to act as though everything is fine so that he doesn't have to deal with the fear and uncertainty of the situation. Roz tries to help the terrified Daphne stay calm. She refuses to think of other things, stating that she has no future until she knows that Niles is all right. Niles' drug-induced comment about the possibility of hospitals having "memories" about their patients prompts everyone to think back on past experiences in that hospital, from Niles' birth to a time that Roz mistook lipstick on Alice's cheek for a rash. Daphne grows more and more tense as they await word on the surgery. When Martin and Frasier repeatedly bicker about a candy bar stuck in the vending machine, Daphne smashes the machine with a fire extinguisher. She breaks down crying, and everyone does their best to console her. Niles' surgery goes even better than expected, and he begins his recovery. A relieved Daphne is finally able to bring herself to think about their future.

He maintains his strict post-operative diet, and refuses to exercise or share a bed with Daphne. He annoys everyone by constantly going around making speeches about his near-death experience and how much he appreciates life. Frasier refuses to argue with Niles because he promised God that he would never quarrel with his brother again if he recovered from his sickness. The frustration of having to agree with everything Niles says begins to drive Frasier crazy, especially when Niles starts monopolizing his radio show to give his own advice to callers. Frasier believes he has found a way to back out of his promise after he learns that Daphne had already made her own deal with God. In the meantime, Martin talks with Niles about the feelings he experienced after his shooting, and forces his son to overcome his fears and go on with his life.
We Two Kings

Niles and Frasier feel ashamed of their actions, and decide to surprise their father at work. They secretly switch the fake presents under the tree at Martin's building with the family's gifts. However, Martin's sympathetic supervisor gives him the day off, and the presents wind up locked inside the vacant building. Although they can't open the gifts until the next day, Martin is still touched by their efforts. Meanwhile, Roz works as an elf for a Christmas toy drive at the mall, and becomes attracted to the man playing Santa.

Door Jam

Frasier and Niles are surprised to have been left out of the loop about this new hot spot, and become obsessed with finding out more information. Frasier heads to the address on the invitation, but cannot get the receptionist to tell him anything. Niles finally shows up and poses as Cam, and is told that the business is a spa. He and Frasier enjoy all of the amenities, but are disturbed to learn that the spa has a "gold level" area to which they are denied access. They constantly complain about being left out. Roz believes that they only care about the gold level because they are not allowed there, but uses her connections to a senator who has a membership to get them inside. The brothers are appeased, until they spot a platinum door. They ignore an attendant's warning and barge through the door, but aren't too happy with the result. Meanwhile, Daphne ruins Martin's enjoyment of The Rockford Files when she says that he reminds her of Rockford's father, rather than the title character.
The Harassed
KACL hires financial analyst Julia Wilcox to give stock market reports during the final ten minutes of Frasier's show each day. She quickly annoys everyone with her arrogance and overall disdain for her co-workers. Frasier believes that her attitude is just a cover for her insecurity, as she was forced out of a national cable job in disgrace after writing a book that featured poor advice that wound up costing many investors huge sums of money. Frasier tries to reach out to Julia, but she wants nothing to do with him. Frasier continually rants and raves about her, prompting his family to suspect that he is attracted to her. Frasier and Julia get into a heated argument, and he mistakenly believes she wants him. When he suggests this, she pulls away in disgust. Julia filed a wrongful termination suit against her last employer, so Kenny assumes that she will sue Frasier and the station for sexual harassment. He tries to avoid this by forcing everyone to attend a sexual harassment prevention seminar, where Bulldog and Noel nearly come to blows over a bewildered Roz. A bored Julia reveals that she has no intention of filing a suit, as it would be humiliating to go to such trouble over a small market station. She agrees to put this in writing, so Kenny lets everyone go home. Frasier sees through Julia's act and gets her to admit that she has lost confidence in her abilities. They come to an understanding and decide to slowly work toward a friendship. Meanwhile, Niles runs into difficulties when an office remodeling forces him to see patients in his and Daphne's apartment.

Lilith comes to Seattle, and tells Frasier that she would like to have another child. She wants him to father the child through artificial insemination so that Frederick could have a full-sibling. Frasier is hesitant to go along with this, so Lilith tries to manipulate him by bringing up touching stories from Frederick's childhood. She says that creating another person as wonderful as Frederick would be the best possible legacy they could leave. Frasier agrees to do it, much to the surprise of his family. When Frasier and Lilith argue at the clinic, he begins to fear that their second-born could inherit all of their worst qualities. He believes that they are trying too hard to re-create the past. He doesn't feel this would be a good reason to bring a child into the world. Frasier worries that Lilith is missing something from her life. However, she seems to make a connection with a fellow passenger, whom she had first met on the trip to Seattle, during her flight home. Meanwhile, Daphne, Roz, Mrs. Moon and Alice embark on a road trip to a Canadian amusement park, with disastrous results. Niles obsesses over a blurry photograph at the end of a roll, which he believes to be an illicit photo of Daphne. He is more than a little disturbed when he discovers the truth.
Daphne Does Dinner
Niles and Frasier plan a party to celebrate the unveiling of a painting that Niles has just purchased. However, Daphne notes that every event the brothers host inevitably ends in disaster. She suggests that Niles instead host the party with her. Frasier is hurt to learn that he will be excluded, and says that he will not even attend the party. Daphne believes that she has everything under control, but things quickly begin to unravel. Alice writes her name in crayon on the painting. Daphne remains calm, and gives Roz the name of a man whom Niles uses to restore artwork. However, the game hens catch fire in the meantime. The caterers are too busy to replace them, so Daphne must turn to Frasier for help. He comes over to assist with the food preparation, but must hide in the pantry whenever Niles comes in the kitchen so that his role will remain a secret. Frasier becomes angry when he overhears Niles and others complimenting the food and saying how much better off they are without Frasier's involvement. Mike Shaw, the artist responsible for the painting, shows for the party after earlier declining his invitation. He doesn't care for the stuffy guests, and decides to go upstairs and watch pay-per-view boxing with Mrs. Moon. Niles hears a couple's description of Shaw (white-haired man in a flannel shirt using a cane) and assumes they have him confused with Martin. The couple who met Shaw has to leave. Martin arrives to bring Frasier some dishes, and winds up having to pose as Shaw for the other guests. Roz asks Daphne to stall the unveiling because the art restorer is painfully slow. Niles insists that dinner must be served immediately. He discovers Frasier, and they begin to argue, leading to more chaos. Daphne tries her best to salvage the evening, but an unexpected event prompts her to give up. Frasier consoles her by telling her that the disastrous party means she is officially part of the family.
Trophy Girlfriend
Tired of being humiliated in his club's annual squash tournament, Niles ditches Frasier and pairs with a younger partner. A P.E. teacher named Chelsea asks Frasier to team with her in the mixed doubles competition. They win the championship. Martin is overjoyed that one of his sons has finally earned a trophy for athletics. Niles winds up begging for Frasier to take him back after his new partner yells at him on the court. Frasier assumes that the tournament's conclusion means the end of his relationship with Chelsea, but they soon begin dating. Niles is surprised that Frasier would date a P.E. teacher after all of the abuse the brothers endured in gym class as children. When Frasier goes to Chelsea's school to pick her up, he sees her berating one of the students. This causes him to have flashbacks, and he can no longer look at Chelsea without seeing his old gym teacher, Coach Fuller. Frasier tries to convince Chelsea to be more sensitive to the children. Meanwhile, Frasier tries to persuade Roz and Julia to be more civil to one another. They cannot find any common ground, until they realize how much they enjoy insulting each other.
Fraternal Schwinns
KACL organizes a bike-a-thon to raise money for AIDS research. Frasier plans to just make a financial donation, but is goaded into participating after Julia announces her intention to take part. Daphne suggests that she and Niles also enter the event. Frasier and Niles try to hide the fact that neither of them knows how to ride a bike, and hope that they can figure it out before the bike-a-thon. After the truth comes out, Daphne tries to help them, but finds that it isn't easy. Meanwhile, Martin receives a frosty response from Cam Winston's mother, Cora, when she comes to the building to visit her son. When he asks why she never called, he learns that Mrs. Moon posed as his girlfriend and scared her away. Martin explains the situation, but Cora already has a boyfriend. A furious Martin gives Mrs. Moon the silent treatment, but she eventually goes to Cora to make amends.
Kenny on the Couch
Kenny becomes extremely depressed after his divorce is finalized. Frasier offers to refer him to another psychiatrist, but Kenny says that he would prefer to discuss his problems with Frasier. Frasier reluctantly agrees, but doesn't take any money. Frasier is thrilled about getting to work with a patient again, and quickly delves into Kenny's childhood issues and cites them as the source of his relationship problems. Kenny remains depressed, so Martin lets him tag along to McGinty's. They have a good time drinking and hanging out. Kenny decides to follow Martin's advice and start getting out of the house so that he can take his mind off his problems. He tells Frasier that he doesn't want to come in to see him anymore. Frasier is furious with Martin, and takes issue with his father's comments about psychiatry. However, Martin finally reminds him that Kenny is far from the only person with problems, and suggests that Frasier start treating patients again. Meanwhile, Niles and Daphne begin practicing yoga with an instructor who caters to Seattle's elite. Although he won't admit it, Niles grows jealous when Daphne proves to be much more flexible than he is.
Roe to Perdition
Frasier and Niles go to the market in search of food for an upcoming dinner party. They are pleased to discover a supply of caviar, but consider the $100-per-ounce price outlandish. A man approaches and tells them that the Russian mafia is controlling the caviar market. However, he has his own supply from his cousin's fishing boat, and is willing to sell to them for $40 an ounce. The Cranes' party guests rave about the caviar, and offer Frasier and Niles invitations to exclusive parties and other social favors in exchange for more caviar. They enjoy the benefits of this arrangement for a while, but Petyr soon tells them that he can no longer be their supplier because he fears that the Russian mafia will discover what he is doing. Roz becomes addicted to caviar, and goes through withdrawal when the Cranes can no longer help her out. Frasier and Niles learn that there is not enough caviar in all of Seattle to cover what they owe their acquaintances. They wind up heading to Petyr's cousin's boat to cut a deal with the suppliers--only to have U.S. Customs show up. Meanwhile, Martin accidentally receives an extra forty dollars from an ATM. Daphne insists that he must return the money or risk bad karma. Martin tries to obey her wishes, but the bank constantly gives him the run-around. The bank becomes confused and keeps giving him more money instead of taking back the forty dollars. When Martin again attempts to return the money, an overzealous security guard believes he is robbing the bank and pulls a gun on him. The bank apologizes for the inconvenience--and winds up giving him $10,000 for his trouble!
Some Assembly Required
Frasier's co-workers cajole him into helping them build a house for Habitat for Humanity. Frasier mostly seems to get in the way, and his participation is limited to stirring paint and a little bit of sanding. However, he somehow views himself as having played some huge role in the process. He becomes very attached to the house, and keeps showing up to offer the inhabitants unwanted decorating advice. Roz tries to convince him that they should be allowed to furnish and decorate the house in whatever way they see fit. Martin and Eddie give a presentation about safety to an elementary school class. They are a big hit, and the school asks them to return for an assembly. However, Martin comes down with a fever and is unable to go through with the speech. A reluctant Niles is forced to take his place. He blames the children for making Martin ill, and winds up impressing the kids with a lecture about germs. Daphne and Mrs. Moon get into a huge argument about her mother's increasingly difficult behavior. After Daphne suggests that she help around the house, Mrs. Moon responds by getting a job at Cafe Nervosa. She hopes to publicly embarrass Daphne and shame her into apologizing. Daphne, however, is nonplussed by her mother's behavior and gladly accepts her paycheck.
Farewell, Nervosa
Frasier consults his old friend Avery for advice on his finances. Avery says that Frasier's spending habits are out of control. Frasier becomes depressed and heads out to Cafe Nervosa to think about a solution. He is disgusted to discover that the owner has hired an eccentric folk singer to perform every afternoon. He announces that he will no longer frequent the cafe, and forces a reluctant Niles to leave with him. They scour Seattle in the hopes of finding a new hangout. While at one prospect, they run into Julia. This prompts them to leave in a hurry, but Frasier returns and sees Julia kissing Avery. He agonizes over whether to tell her that Avery is married. Niles returns to Cafe Nervosa and tries to keep it a secret from Frasier. Frasier, frustrated by his inability to find a new coffeehouse, returns to Nervosa and catches Niles dancing along to Ben's performance. Ben's song intro (about doing the right thing) inspires Frasier to confront Avery. Much to his surprise, Julia is hiding in the closet. She had known all along that Avery was married. A disgusted Frasier declares that he will stop trying to be a friend to her. Julia seems saddened when Avery takes a call from his wife. She realizes that Frasier was trying to help her, and shows her appreciation by getting Ben a job at a bank so that he can no longer perform at Nervosa. Meanwhile, a woman observes Daphne's therapy techniques with Martin to help determine whether Daphne can take on other clients. Martin angers Daphne by trying to put on an act to make her look good, rather than letting her work speak for itself.
The Devil and Dr. Phil
Frasier learns that Dr. Phil McGraw is in town for a special. The two are old friends, but Frasier is angry at Phil for supposedly swindling him out of $200 in a poker game. He reluctantly agrees to take the star-struck Roz to the set to see him. Frasier is surprised to find that Bebe Glazer is Dr. Phil's agent, and becomes extremely envious. He wonder if she might be able to elevate him to the same level of stardom as Dr. Phil. Bebe agrees to meet with Frasier to discuss the matter, but also wants to seduce him. Frasier believes he can get Bebe to cave in by just teasing her with the possibility of sex, but Niles warns that the situation seems very dangerous. Frasier winds up running out of Bebe's room in a panic. Bebe shows up at Nervosa and tells Frasier that she wants to leave Dr. Phil for him, as she prefers a challenge. He excitedly agrees to increase her fee, even though she has already managed to cost him his stint at the Spokane station. He has no idea that Bebe never actually worked for Dr. Phil. Phil had only played along with her scheme to win back Frasier so that he could pay off a gambling debt. Meanwhile, Martin's supervisor punishes him for refusing to date his sister by assigning him to the graveyard shift. Martin begins to lose his mind due to the odd hours and lack of human contact. Niles and Daphne become fascinated with an older couple whom they view as future versions of themselves.
Fathers and Sons
Leland Barton, Hester's former research assistant, comes for a visit after a long absence from Seattle. Roz becomes alarmed when Leland confesses his deep affection for Hester. She notes that Leland and Frasier seem to have much more in common than Frasier and Martin (they are both psychiatrists, enjoy sherry and fine art, etc.) and even have many of the same mannerisms. Leland also shares many habits--and a couple of very rare allergies--with Niles. Roz begins to worry that Leland was the boys' real father. She accidentally shares her suspicions with Martin, who admits that Hester cheated on him and fears that Roz may be right. Roz tries to assure him that his relationship with Frasier and Niles shouldn't change, even if he isn't their biological father. Martin observes Leland's close interaction with Frasier and Niles and finally confronts him. Leland admits that he loved Hester very much--and that he is gay. Meanwhile, Niles and Daphne make plans to apply for a spot in a prestigious prep school for their yet-to-be-conceived child, but can't come up with a name to write on the application.
Analyzed Kiss
Julia becomes extremely depressed after breaking up with Avery, who had never followed through on his promise to leave his wife for her. He tries to deny her the credit for their software company, an endeavor for which she did most of the work. She decides to go down to his office to retrieve his files, and Frasier comes along for moral support. She winds up breaking into the office and stealing the files, as well as deleting his entire hard drive. As they hide in a closet from the cleaning woman, Frasier keeps trying to convince Julia to do the right thing. She surprises him with a kiss, but then trashes Avery's office. Julia tries to avoid Frasier, but later admits that she likes the fact that he has so much character. She kisses him several more times, and finally agrees to a date. A rival station approaches Roz and asks her to become its program director. She manages to get the job, despite a misunderstanding about whether or not she had once slept with the station manager. Frasier has mixed feelings, as he wants Roz to move up in the world, but will miss working with her. Niles goes along with Martin on an excursion to a shooting range and takes a surprising knack to shooting. He enjoys hanging out with "regular guys," until Martin and Daphne learn a disturbing secret about his new friends.
A New Position for Roz
Roz tries to train the woefully incompetent Noel as Frasier's new producer as she prepares to leave KACL. She becomes increasingly melancholy about the possibility of leaving Frasier, and bristles upon learning of his new relationship with Julia. During a farewell dinner with her co-workers, Roz becomes concerned by the obvious closeness between Frasier and Julia. She suddenly announces that she is turning down the program director job and staying at KACL. At Cafe Nervosa, Julia tries to call Frasier's cell phone while he is in the restroom. Roz sees that she is the caller and complains, and Mrs. Moon answers the phone and pretends that she is some woman fooling around with Frasier. Julia uncovers the truth, and Mrs. Moon immediately gives up Roz. Julia confronts Roz, who orders her to stay away because she doesn't think she's good for Frasier. Julia notes that Roz seems extremely jealous, and they argue. Roz tries to get Martin to side with her against Julia. She finally talks to Frasier and pleads with him to dump Julia. Frasier grows angry at her for interfering in his relationship, and says that it is none of her business. Roz becomes increasingly agitated and emotional, and finally orders Frasier to choose between them, threatening to leave his life forever. Frasier chooses Julia. Roz quits her job and takes the program director position. Meanwhile, Niles and Daphne discuss the possibility of having children, but realize that this cannot happen while her mother is still living with them. They ask Mrs. Moon to leave, and she prepares to return to England. Daphne holds her ground when her mother tries to lay a guilt trip on her; but Niles realizes that, in spite of their frequent arguments, the two don't really want to be on separate continents. He agrees to help Mrs. Moon find an apartment in Seattle.
No Sex Please, We're Skittish
Roz dislikes her new job and wants to return to KACL. Niles suspects that she is in love with Frasier, but she insists that this isn't true. She decides to follow Niles' facetious advice, and just shows up for work at KACL as if nothing happened. Frasier thinks that Roz is in love with him, and is afraid to sleep with Julia because he believes he holds some strange power over women. Roz comes over while Frasier is having dinner with Julia and sets him straight, explaining that she was simply afraid of losing his friendship. Julia storms out because Frasier is not paying enough attention to her. Daphne is upset to learn that Niles once made a deposit to a sperm bank, as she doesn't like the idea of him having other children. Niles goes to the clinic to see if his contribution was ever used, and finds that it was discarded because his sperm have low motility. Niles tries several unusual measures to correct this, but finally tells Daphne that they may have trouble conceiving. Much to their surprise, they discover that Daphne is already pregnant!
A Man, a Plan and a Gal: Julia
Niles accuses Frasier of sabotaging his relationships whenever things start to get serious. Frasier vows to "commit to commitment," and tries to win Julia back. She accepts his apology and sleeps with him, and the pair seems to be getting along well. However, Julia proceeds to offend the entire Crane family during a dinner that Niles and Daphne had scheduled to announce her pregnancy. She even inadvertently spills the beans about the pregnancy (she overheard Niles and Daphne discussing it) before the couple can make the announcement. Frasier tries to excuse her behavior because of his new dedication to commitment, but ultimately dumps her.
The Doctor Is Out
Frasier and Niles suspect that Roz's new boyfriend, Barry, is gay. They see Barry on the street and believe that he has gone into a gay bar. Frasier, worried that Barry is leading Roz on, goes inside to confront him. Niles discovers that Barry actually went into an apartment building next door to the bar. He goes into the bar to tell Frasier, and a misunderstanding causes the patrons to believe the Crane brothers are actually lovers. A caller then "outs" Frasier on his show the next day. Martin feels very uncomfortable about the public thinking his son is gay. Alistair Burke, the head of the Seattle opera guild, befriends Frasier and begins spending a lot of time with him. The rest of the family realizes that Alistair thinks of Frasier as his boyfriend, but Frasier insists that this is not true. Frasier, Niles and Daphne attend a party, where Frasier discovers that everyone in attendance thinks that he and Alistair are a couple. Frasier is finally forced to come clean with Alistair about his sexuality after learning that Alistair expects to take their relationship to the next level very soon.
The Babysitter
Frasier and Niles go to a furniture store to pick out a couch for Frasier's new office. Niles cannot stop rambling; Frasier believes he is suffering from anxiety because of his impending fatherhood. Frasier, meanwhile, is experiencing doubts about his return to private practice, as he believes he has grown rusty. Frasier spots Ronee Lawrence, the boys' old babysitter. He invites her to come over to the apartment and catch up, as he hopes this will lead to romantic involvement for the pair. However, Martin also finds Ronee attractive, and decides to make his own move on her. When Ronee is called away to work, both men follow her to the club where she performs. Frasier is devastated to find that Ronee likes Martin, and falls into a depression. Frasier and Niles accidentally learn that Martin has been taking Viagra. Martin returns for his pills, but the brothers cannot put them back in time to hide their discovery. Martin is embarrassed, and explains that he could not perform with Ronee because he keeps picturing her as a teenager. Within the span of a few minutes, Frasier is able to diagnose and solve all three of the men's neuroses. He gloats about this and declares himself fit to return to private practice.
The Placeholder
Roz tries to convince Frasier to go out with her friend Ann. She feels that Frasier is too particular about who he dates, and adds that there is nothing wrong with continuing to date around until the right person comes along. Frasier is reluctant, but soon grows tired of tagging along with Niles and Daphne and Martin and Ronee or hanging around the apartment alone. He agrees to a date with Ann, which proves to be a disaster. In the middle of the evening, he runs into Kenny, who is trying to persuade his beautiful and interesting cousin, Liz, to take a job in Seattle. Liz is leaving town the next day, so Frasier tries to ditch Ann so that he can spend time with her. Meanwhile, Niles and Daphne suspect that their maid is stealing from them.
I'm Listening
Frasier overhears Ronee making a date with another man. He tells Martin, who is furious at him for eavesdropping. Ronee later breaks the news to Martin herself, explaining that she didn't think they had an exclusive relationship. He covers by claiming to be dating a woman named Sheila. Frasier gets stuck in the kitchen and overhears the conversation, and Martin accuses him of being a chronic eavesdropper. Martin runs into Ronee and her date at Cafe Nervosa, and tries to make her jealous by having Roz pose as the fictional Sheila. Frasier urges Martin to tell Ronee how he feels about her. Ronee comes over to talk to Martin, and Frasier leaves to give them some privacy. However, Roz inadvertently drives Ronee away, and Frasier somehow finds himself listening to another private conversation as Ronee and Martin sort things out in her car.
Maris Returns (1)
Niles receives a phone call from a panicked Maris, who asks to meet him for lunch. She asks for advice on how to handle her violent, philandering lover. Niles recommends that she leave him immediately. Frasier and Martin warn Niles not to tell Daphne about the lunch, as she is experiencing severe mood swings due to her pregnancy. Niles wants to tell Daphne anyway, but changes his mind after she freaks out about a phone call from Maris. Niles ends up having to pile lie upon lie to keep the news from Daphne, and even has to throw her a baby shower at the last minute after she suspects that is the reason for his odd behavior and nervousness. Maris's lover, Esteban, shows up at the shower in search of Niles. He mistakenly punches out Frasier as he tries to retaliate for Niles' advice. Daphne is furious to learn that Niles lied to her, and storms out. She later returns, and Niles promises that Maris will never come between them again. Just then, a radio report announces that Maris has been arrested for Esteban's murder. Meanwhile, Frasier reconsiders his decision to return to private practice after his first two days are marred by a series of disastrous (and short) sessions.
Murder Most Maris (2)
Niles is questioned by the police because he loaned Maris the murder weapon--an antique crossbow--for use in a play. Maris insists that she acted in self-defense. She continually calls Niles from jail, leaving Daphne extremely angry. The media scrutiny surrounding the Cranes intensifies after Frasier--the self-appointed family spokesman--accidentally says that Niles and Maris will be "executed" rather than "exonerated." Niles and Daphne have to come stay with Frasier, and Daphne makes Niles sleep on the couch. Frasier worries that Niles is reacting too calmly, as he believes that the anxiety will build up and eventually lead to a breakdown. Overcome with stress and sleep deprivation, Niles winds up stripping off all his clothes in Cafe Nervosa. Roz and Frasier manage to handle the situation. Niles finally begins to display some anger about his predicament, and asks Maris to back off and stop calling him so often.
Guns N' Neuroses
Lilith comes to town for a one-day conference. She and Frasier try to get together, but keep having to cancel. Lilith discusses her romantic problems with a colleague at Cafe Nervosa before having to return to the conference. The woman then meets Frasier and arranges a blind date between an unwitting Frasier and Lilith. Frasier and Lilith plan to meet for drinks at her hotel before their date(s). When it takes longer than expected, Frasier calls the woman who arranged the date and says that he has to cancel. Lilith tries to save face by cancelling the date herself. She and Frasier each believe they have been stood up, but are hesitant to admit it to each other. They have a wonderful evening together, and even help the couple in the next room deal with relationship problems. Frasier winds up falling asleep and staying overnight. Meanwhile, a frantic Niles, Martin and Daphne try to undo the damage after Martin's gun accidentally discharges in Frasier's apartment.
Sea Bee Jeebies
Niles gains notoriety throughout Seattle because of his involvement in Maris's murder case. He and Daphne mingle with the city's social elite (including Bill Gates), and he is able to finagle reservations at booked restaurants. Frasier grows very jealous, but hopes that his two Sea Bee nominations (which break the record for most nominations in a career) will help him return to the spotlight. Kenny arranges for an interview, and Frasier invites the reporter to the ceremony. However, everything quickly begins to go wrong. Frasier loses his date because the event has to be scheduled for the morning due to Kenny's gaffe. He then loses both of the awards, and the attention of the reporter, who is much more interested in Niles. Roz, on the other hand, experiences the thrill of a lifetime when her judgmental sister--who has a seemingly perfect life--finally gets knocked off her pedestal.
High Holidays
Frasier eagerly anticipates a visit from Frederick, but is shocked when his son shows up sporting a new "goth" look (all black clothing with mascara). Frederick also ignores Frasier to spend all of his time with Andi, a girl from back home who is also visiting relatives in Seattle. Frasier experiences further distress when he does a television spot to promote tourism in Seattle, only to have Eddie made the focus of the ad. Meanwhile, Niles is upset to learn that he never went through a rebellious stage during his youth. He tries to remedy this by getting high off a marijuana-laced brownie made by Roz's neighbor. Unfortunately, Martin unwittingly eats the brownie.
Frasier-Lite
KACL employees face off against another station in a weight-loss competition, with the winning team to receive a trip to Las Vegas. Tensions rise among the staffers, who become extremely cranky due to hunger as the contest proceeds. Noel starves himself and repeatedly faints after Roz suggests that he might get lucky with her in Vegas if they win the trip. Frasier refuses to get into the competitive spirit until he discovers that their opponent's general manager is a man who bullied him in high school (stealing his chess set). Meanwhile, Niles and Martin try to nurse an injured pigeon back to health; and Niles repeatedly suffers injuries of his own because the pregnant Daphne rolls over onto him in her sleep.
The Ann Who Came to Dinner
Frasier discovers that his home insurance policy has been cancelled because Martin forgot to mail the payment several months earlier. After learning that it would cost a fortune to renew with that company, Frasier tries to get a better deal by making nice with Roz's insurance agent friend Ann, with whom Frasier had a disastrous date several months earlier. Unfortunately, Ann slips on some mayonaise in the kitchen and winds up breaking her leg. Frasier fears that she will sue, and tries to avoid this by inviting her to stay at the apartment while she recovers and treating her with kindness. He soon discovers that Ann's stay may be much longer than he expected. Meanwhile, Maris is released on bail and placed under house arrest. She involves an unwitting Niles in a scheme to flee the country and avoid prosecution.
Freudian Sleep
Frasier grows depressed because no one is calling into his show. He mistakenly believes that Martin is inviting him along on his weekend in the mountains with Ronee, failing to realize that Martin was actually talking to Eddie. Niles and Daphne also come along after Niles overhears a sarcastic remark by Ronee and mistinterprets it as an invitation. Frasier is plagued by anxieties and cannot sleep during the trip. He first dreams that he has killed Niles and married Daphne. Niles mocks him for having such a simple dream, which he says is clearly a sign that he envies his brother's life. Frasier also has a nightmare about his problems with the show. Niles dreams about being a bad father, while Daphne suffers a nightmare in which she continually gains weight and Niles fools around with other women. Martin also has an unusual dream in which he chides his family members for letting their worries overcome them, before bursting into a song and dance number about his positive attitude. Unlike the other Cranes, Martin sleeps soundly.
Caught in the Act
Roz is disappointed when she is unable to get Alice tickets to a concert by children's performer Nanny G. After his family reveals that he used to be married to her, Frasier agrees to help Roz secure tickets. He accompanies Roz and Alice to a bookstore appearance, and continually drops hints to Nanny G about the fact that he is single. She doesn't seem interested. However, she soon has everyone in the store cover their eyes as part of a song. She gooses Frasier and kisses him passionately. They plan a rendezvous at his apartment. Much to his surprise, Nanny G shows up with her producer, Donald--who is also her husband. She claims that the marriage is only a business arrangement, and laments how frustrated she is with her life. She makes several passes at Frasier, and asks him to meet up with her after her concert the next day. Although he is in the midst of a dry spell and desperately wants to go through with it, he realizes it is wrong. He stops by before the show to share his decision, and Nanny G asks him to go down to the prop room to talk. She seduces Frasier, and he takes off his clothes and jumps into the prop bed with her--only to have it rise to the stage as the show begins. Meanwhile, Niles buys an expensive sweater, breaking a promise to Daphne to be frugal and save money for their child's college fund. Daphne--who believes the sweater is from the Gap--quickly proceeds to ruin it, leaving Niles frustrated but with no recourse.
Boo! (a.k.a. I'm With Her)
Frasier treats a woman who has a phobia about clowns. He plans to don a clown costume and full make-up as part of her treatment. Martin sneaks into Frasier's office and scares him by coming up behind him with one of Frasier's masks over his face. Frasier does not find this amusing, so Martin repeatedly teases him about being a "fuddy-duddy." Frasier decides to retaliate for the prank. He tells Martin that he is leaving the apartment, then puts on the clown costume and rings the doorbell. When Martin comes out to answer it, Frasier jumps out, wielding a cleaver. Martin collapses and suffers a mild heart attack. Frasier feels incredibly guilty about his actions, and is humiliated in the waiting room when the nurse reads off an account of what happened. Martin recovers quickly and returns home, but doesn't want to tell Ronee about his health crisis. He fears that she will think of him as an old man. When he finally breaks the news, she is nonplussed. She remarks that his serious behavior caused her to think he was going to break up with her or propose. Martin very casually proposes to Ronee (in a roundabout way), and she accepts. After realizing what has happened, they happily announce their engagement to Frasier and Niles.
Coots and Ladders
A panicked Frasier calls Niles over to the apartment and says that he has committed a crime. He explains the series of events that led up to this. When Frasier was overcome by a coughing fit, Roz took over the show and advised a caller to seek counseling to deal with kleptomania, which she described as being the result of someone needing the thrill of stealing to deal with the emptiness in his or her life. Frasier congratulated her on knowing what to say, but Roz said that it was easy because he is so predictable. While looking through some old photographs, Ronee remarked that Frasier hadn't changed in ten years. This prompted him to grow jealous of the excitement in the lives of his loved ones (Martin's engagement and Niles and Daphne's impending parenthood). Frasier then went to help an elderly neighbor, Opal, change a lightbulb. After she commented on his routine and compared him to a comfortable old shoe, he stole a small box from her for the thrill. However, he now feels guilty and seeks Niles' help to return it. They sneak into Opal's apartment, only to have her whole family show up for a surprise party. To make matters worse, Frasier learns that the item he stole was Opal's bronze medal from the 1936 Olympics. Frasier must distract the guests and try to think of an excuse to get Niles up a ladder to return the medal before anyone knows it is missing.
Match Game
While headed to his office, Frasier gets off the elevator on the wrong floor. A woman named Charlotte tries to persuade him to join her matchmaking service. Frasier insists that he doesn't need help finding a date, but changes his mind after a disastrous elevator encounter with a former date that he can't remember. Frasier reluctantly agrees to pay Charlotte's $10,000 fee, but winds up on a series of horrendous dates. He fires Charlotte and demands his money back after his next date fails to show. He then discovers that Charlotte has lied about having a successful service, as she only has five other clients. Charlotte breaks down and admits that she has already spent his fee. She apologizes for deceiving him and explains that she was a very successful matchmaker in Chicago, but lost her business to her ex-husband. Frasier spends the evening chatting with Charlotte over drinks and becomes fascinated with her. He is disappointed to learn that she has a boyfriend, and cannot stop thinking about her. Meanwhile, Niles and Daphne feel inadequate after talking with one of the more sensitive couples from their La Maze class. They begin eating healthy food, and Niles develops sympathy pains and weight gain. They also hire a doula and plan a natural birth, despite Roz's warnings about the pain involved. Daphne comes to agree with Roz after seeing a videotape of a woman trying to give birth without drugs.
Miss Right Now
Martin worries about a visit from Ronee's mother. She dislikes him because she once saw Martin innocently comforting the teenage Ronee and assumed he was trying to "take her virtue." Meanwhile, Frasier continues to find himself consumed by thoughts of Charlotte. Roz recommends that he get over it by going to a bar and picking up someone. Frasier quickly makes a connection with a woman named Kim, and they go back to his apartment. However, their potential tryst is first interrupted by Martin, Ronee and her horrified mother; and then by Charlotte, who needs her extra keys after returning unexpectedly early from a camping trip with her boyfriend. Frasier tells Kim that things simply weren't meant to be for them, and ends up spending time with Charlotte, who had gotten into a fight with her boyfriend, Frank. Frasier tells Martin that he is miserable trying to be friends with Charlotte and wants to cut her out of his life. However, he quickly changes his mind. Meanwhile, Niles becomes a fast-food junkie after Daphne takes him on a few outings to Burger, Burger, Burger.
And Frasier Makes Three
Frasier shares with Niles his plans to win over Charlotte by acting as Frank's opposite, thus providing her with a viable alternative. He arranges a romantic "working" dinner, but Frank shows up and interrupts them. The three of them begin spending a lot of time together. Frank believes that Frasier is his buddy and has no idea that he actually has designs on Charlotte. Frasier gets together for dinner with Charlotte while Frank is supposed to be away, but he shows up again. He and Charlotte quarrel over the fact that they never have any time to spend together, and he storms out and makes Frasier come with him. Frasier later returns to talk to Charlotte, and admits his feelings for her. Charlotte confesses that she has been thinking about Frasier as well, and they sleep together. Frank comes back and sees Frasier in a bathrobe in Charlotte's bedroom, but thinks that he just got caught in the rain. Charlotte breaks up with Frank, telling him that her ex-husband recently agreed to sell her their old business. She will be moving back to Chicago. Frasier remains blissfully unaware of this. Meanwhile, Martin plans to present Ronee with an engagement ring; but Roz and Daphne balk when he tries to give Ronee the ring he once bought for Sherry. He sells the old ring and buys another, but must hide its origins from Ronee. Roz dates a former inmate.
Detour
Frasier offers Charlotte a ride to the train station, as she is headed to Portland to give a speech at a businesswomen's convention. She seems evasive when he tries to make future plans, so he insists that she explain what is wrong. She tells him that she is moving back to Chicago in three weeks, and doesn't think they should keep seeing each other because it will just make saying goodbye more painful. Charlotte ends up missing her train as they talk. Frasier tries to get her to the next station on time, but doesn't make it. His car eventually breaks down in a desolate area. There is no cell phone service, so they have to seek the help of a very strange family. They wind up spending the night in the same room as the body of their host's mother, whose wake is the next morning. They agree they they have had so much fun, even under these disastrous circumstances, that they want to make the most of their last few weeks together. Meanwhile, Martin, Daphne and Niles are left very confused when interviews for Martin's temporary physical therapist, the Cranes' nanny and the stripper for Martin's bachelor party are scheduled for the same time.
Crock Tales
As Frasier prepares for a dinner party, he considers throwing away an old broken crock pot. However, the crock pot stirs many memories of past experiences with his friends and family. Among the times he recalls are getting accidentally super-glued to a blind date after Martin tried to repair the pot; a birthday party for Roz that found Niles and Daphne feeling especially amorous; a Fourth of July in which Frasier, Niles, Daphne and Roz got locked out on the balcony; a Thanksgiving when everyone seemed to be down on his or her luck (and Roz was working as a phone sex operator); and a dinner party shortly after his arrival in Seattle. Frasier realizes that the pot has sentimental value and decides to hold on to it.
Goodnight, Seattle (1)
During an especially bumpy flight, Frasier tells a fellow passenger about his eventful past few weeks, which are recounted in a long flashback. Bebe tells Frasier that he has been offered the chance to replace a recently deceased San Francisco radio host. Frasier declines because he is happy with his life in Seattle. She believes he is just playing hardball, and later approaches him again with an offer of a higher salary and the bonus of a regular morning television gig. Frasier accidentally misses part of his show after engaging in a "matinee" with Charlotte. Kenny fills in for him, and enjoys being on the air so much that he decides to quit his job and go back to being a disc jockey. Frasier's last dinner with Charlotte before her departure for Chicago is constantly beset with interruptions; including an appearance by Daphne's brothers Simon, Michael and Stephen, who have dropped in on their sister unexpectedly. Niles worries that his child will turn out like Daphne's brothers. Frasier finally gets everyone out of the apartment, and he and Charlotte bid each other a sad farewell. Ronee discovers that the hotel believes that her wedding to Martin is to take place on May 15 instead of in July. Martin realizes that he accidentally gave Eddie's birthday when he booked the hotel, but his Frasier and Niles promise to throw together a great wedding in spite of the short notice. The event is marked by a constant series of calamities. Daphne's brothers get the flower girl drunk; the air conditioning goes out on a sweltering day; and a mishap with a cannon causes a truck full of spooked cattle to stink up the surrounding area. Niles and Daphne must take Eddie to the veternarian after he accidentally swallows the ring. Daphne goes into labor, and a young vet must deliver the baby.
Goodnight, Seattle (2)
Daphne gives birth to a healthy son, David. Frasier marries Martin and Ronee in the vet's office before Daphne and the baby leave for the hospital. Frasier grows very lonely with Martin out of the apartment and Daphne and Niles busy with their son. He decides to take the San Francisco job. Roz is named Kenny's replacement as station manager, and gives Noel a kiss during her celebration! Frasier tells his family and Roz about his upcoming move, following a misunderstanding that leads them to believe he is dying. He promises to visit frequently. Frasier makes a speech to the group, and again on his final show at KACL, about the importance of taking chances. His seatmate on the plane thanks him for the stimulating conversation as their plane finally lands...in Chicago.
