Quote from Martin in Lilith Needs a Favor
Frasier: How does one respond to something like that? Martin: Well, I bet if you say "No" she'll go to Niles. Frasier: Really, it's just so self-centered. I mean, she's got this all figured out for herself without the slightest consideration for my life. Martin: And Niles'll say "No" for sure. Which means only one thing. She'll come to the source. Me. The fountainhead.
