- Martin: [On the phone to Daphne, who's stuck at Niles' mansion] No, no, the storm's really bad, you shouldn't be driving in it anyway. No, you just spend the night there. Right, right. Goodnight, Daphne.
- Frasier: You told her to spend the night?
- Martin: Yeah. What's the problem?
- Frasier: Well, you know how Niles feels about her.
- Martin: Oh, relax, it's just another one of Niles' little crushes.
- Frasier: Oh, I suppose you're right, Niles is harmless enough. Besides, he'd never try anything with Maris in the house.
- Martin: Oh, Maris never made it back, she's stuck in Arizona.
- Frasier: I've gotta get Daphne out of there!
- Martin: Why?!
- Frasier: Why? My God, it's a recipe for disaster! You've got a vulnerable woman and an unstable man in a gothic mansion on a rainy night! The only thing missing is someone shouting 'Heathcliff!' across the moors.
