Frasier: Oh, so, Tom. I take it you've been listening to the show for some time.
Tom: Oh, are you kidding? From day one. I got so hooked that eventually I started taping them so that I didn't miss anything. I even was skipping out of work early so I could make sure to be home on time.
Niles: So, Tom, in a way you could say your obsession with your collection was bringing your life to a standstill.
Tom: Yes, yes exactly. Until I realized how ridiculous I was being. I mean, missing work to tape the show?
Frasier: Good for you, Tom. So you could say that it's possible to have a passion for collecting without losing sight of your priorities.
Tom: Yes, exactly. And that's why I quit my job.
