Quote from Niles in Four for the Seesaw
Frasier: Niles, this is tearing me apart. Niles: These women are inscrutable as sphinxes. Frasier: Yes, they've got us into some most veiled, cloaked, cryptic messages. Can't they just give us one clear signal? Beth: Well, I'm off to bed. Niles, are you coming? Niles: Curse these infernal riddles.
