Frasier: Tricia, I am so very sorry. Have you been waiting long?
Tricia: Well, let's see, we were supposed to meet at noon and it's now quarter to one.
Frasier: Well, I do apologize, it's just that the most extraordinary thing happened.
Tricia: Well, at least I'll get a colorful anecdote out of this. What was it?
Frasier: My watch stopped.
Tricia: I gotta go.
Frasier: No, no, no, no. That really is extraordinary. You see, it's a very fine Swiss timepiece, it only loses a minute per decade.
Tricia: And you've had it for what, four hundred and fifty years? I'm sorry, Frasier, I have an appointment at one.
Frasier: No, no, no, please, please, let me have another chance. I so enjoyed meeting you last night, I'd love to get to know you better.
Tricia: Well, I suppose even Swiss watches sometimes stop.
Frasier: You'd be amazed how much fondue gets overcooked that way.
