Martin Quote #24

Quote from Martin in Dinner at Eight

Martin: Hey, I know! Why don't I take us all to The Timber Mill?
Niles: The Timber Mill?
Martin: Oh, it's great. You get a steak this thick for $8.95!
Niles: Honestly, Dad, it doesn't sound like the kind of restaurant we'd like.
Martin: Well, I was willing to go to your place.
Frasier: Dad, I think we'd better just take a rain check.
Martin: Oh, gees, I was looking forward to spending an evening with you boys. We can do it some other time. I'm sure Daphne's got something in the fridge I can heat up.
Frasier: You know, on second though, I'm really in the mood for a good steak.
Niles: What?
Frasier: Well, yes, you know, the point of the whole thing isn't exactly where we have dinner but that the three of us have an evening together as a family, right?
Martin: Oh, you won't be sorry. They've got five different toppings for your baked potato.
Frasier: Oh, did you hear that, Niles?
Niles: I'm sold.
Martin: We'll bring you a bone, Eddie. He's ecstatic.

Quote from Martin

Martin: All right, that's it. I've had enough of you two jackasses. I've spent the whole night listening to you making cracks about the food and the health. Well, I've got news for you. People like this place. I like this place. And when you insult this restaurant, you insult me. You know, I used to think you took after your mother, liking the ballet and all that. But you mother liked a good ball game, too. She'd even have a hot dog once in a while. She may have had fancy taste, but she had too much class to make me or anyone else feel second-rate. If she saw the way you two behaved tonight, she'd be ashamed. I know I am.

Quote from Martin

Martin: Oh, gee, I don't know.
Niles: Oh, oh. The food is to die for.
Martin: Niles, your country and your family are to die for. Food is to eat.

Quote from Frasier

Waitress: Can I get you something from the bar?
Frasier: Oh, dear God, yes.
Niles: I'll have a Stoli Gibson on the rocks with three pearl onions.
Frasier: If you bring him two, if you bring him four, he'll send it back.
Waitress: And for you?
Frasier: The same.
