When Frasier is pulled over by a traffic cop, he gets the feeling the officer might be into him. After Frasier talks his father into joining him at a cop bar to meet the officer, it turns out she's more interested in Martin.

Quote from Martin

Frasier: Oh well! Oh my God, fancy seeing you here!
Maureen: Hey, Frasier Crane.
Frasier: Oh, you remember me?
Maureen: Come on. Sixty-two in a forty-mile zone with a half-naked girl in the backseat? [Martin looks disturbed]
Frasier: Roz.
Martin: Oh.

Quote from Martin

Maureen: So, what brings you guys here? This is mostly a cop hangout.
Martin: Well, I used to be on the force.
Maureen: Really?
Martin: Yeah.
Maureen: Wait a minute. Marty Crane? ... You're Martin Crane.
Martin: You're wasting your time in traffic, you're quite a detective.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Here we are. Three beers. Good news. There was a fly in one glass, so they're free.

Quote from Martin

Niles: Did you encourage her in any way?
Martin: Well, I guess I was kind of charming. I mean, I didn't mean to be. It just sometimes leaks out.

Quote from Martin

Niles: Well, what do you want to do?
Martin: Well, most important I don't want to hurt Frasier. And secondly, I want to go out with Maureen. The order of that changes depending on the time of day.

Quote from Niles

Niles: Well, one possibility is, go on a date with her. If you feel there are sparks between you and this woman, then tell Frasier.
Martin: I don't want to lie to my son.
Niles: You're not lying to him. You're delaying the truth to spare his feelings. If nothing happens, he need never know.
Martin: Well, I guess it's worth a try. If Maureen and I hit it off, then I'll tell him immediately.
Niles: Or I can. Really, I don't mind.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Hi, Dad.
Martin: Oh, Frasier, you're still home.
Frasier: Yeah. Where are you going?
Martin: Just out.
Frasier: What are you gonna do?
Martin: Nothing.
Frasier: When are you gonna be home?
Martin: Later.
Frasier: Well, you put a dent in the car, young man, it's coming out of your allowance.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Well, McGinty's is on my way to the station. I suppose I could just pop my head in. Thank you, ladies, for your support. Even if it was nakedly self-serving and insincere.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: You asked her out?
Martin: No, that's not the way it happened.
Frasier: There's no use lying to me. I am at the lowest point I could possibly be, so please just tell me the truth.
Martin: Maureen asked me out.
Frasier: Going down.

Quote from Frasier

Roz: Okay, let's go!
Frasier: Do you sense a little moment there?
Roz: What are you talking about?
Frasier: Well, between me and that very attractive officer. It just felt like there was something there.
Roz: Yeah, major sparks. Now, just the right pedal. The big pedal on the right.
Frasier: Now, just a minute. [looking at the rear-view mirror] We'll see if she's watching me. If she's watching me, she's interested. Oh, yes. She's turning around, she's looking up.
Maureen: [over bullhorn] Move your vehicle!
Frasier: Oh, yes. I've cast my spell.
