Quote from Roz in A Passing Fancy
Roz: Hey, Frasier. I have a work-related proposal I want to run by you. Frasier: Well, Roz, I'm always open to new ideas. Creative thoughts, outside-the-box thinking, that sort of thing. Roz: I want Friday the fifteenth off. But be aware, if you say "No," you'll be crushing a dream I've had since college. Frasier: A three-day weekend, that's quite a dream. Roz: My dream is to have front row seats at Bruce Springsteen. That way, when he starts doing "Dancing in the Dark", there's a chance he'll pull me up on stage with him. Frasier: I see. And this concert is on a Friday afternoon? Roz: No, grandpa. The tickets go on sale Saturday and I want to be the first in line. Frasier: Ah. Well, if you hadn't called me "grandpa," I would have found a polite way to no. But as it is, no. Roz: I can't believe I didn't just call in sick instead of telling you the truth. I just wasted perfectly good honesty on you.
