Quote from Niles in Come Lie with Me
Niles: I wasn't invited. Frasier: Niles, it's one party. Niles: Yes, but when you're off the A-list for one party you're off for all of them. From now on I'll be relegated to B-list charity events, grubby little theatre companies and last year's diseases. Frasier: This often happens in these cases when two people separate. Their friends choose one spouse over the other. I'm sure they just chose Maris because she's better connected and has more money than you do. Niles: Exactly which part of that was meant to ease my pain?
