Frasier: Let's see who's on line one. Hello, this is Dr. Frasier Crane. [reading] "You're on the couch."
Angela: "No, I'm not."
Frasier: Well, I meant on the metaphorical couch.
Angela: "I'm in a beanbag chair, O.K.?"
Frasier: Uh, moving on then. Um, how can I help you?
Angela: "It's about my husband. Look, I-I just can't do this, it's really too embarrassing for me."
Frasier: No, no, please, please, dear friend, you must - I'm really here to help you. Please, go ahead.
Angela: "I've tried, and I've tried, and I just don't know what to do about this."
Frasier: Well, you know, often in these cases, it helps if you restate your problem. But this time, try boiling it down to one succinct sentence. Now, how would you do that?
Angela: "My husband is dead!"
Frasier: Well, perhaps we should go back to the wordy version.
