Frasier Quote #862
Quote from Frasier in The Show Where Diane Comes Back
[Going over to Niles' table in the coffeehouse]
Frasier: My God, Niles, it's such a glorious day. I walked all the way here. Thirty-two blocks, and Bruno Mallies be damned. Oh yes, I see the look. I know exactly what it means, too. How could I very well say "no" to Diane? She
came to me in crisis. Oh, excuse me, a double cappuccino, please. Light cinnamon, thank you very much. [sighs] Oh, you know, the change in Diane has really been quite gratifying. Dropped her off at the theater
today, and there was a smile on her face that I haven't seen in... well, far too many years. Oh, I know what you're thinking. Where did she get the money to do the play? Well, she found a backer. ... It's tax deductible! [The waitress brings his coffee] Thank you. Oh, why don't you go ahead and say what you're thinking, Niles? That I'm falling for her again. "Well, you did bounce in here as though you were on top of the world, and babbling about her smile"- I just don't want to hear it, Niles! I'm simply helping her to get back on her feet and out of my life as quickly as possible. No, I don't know how long it's going to take. Look, I said I don't know. Oh, really, Niles! Curse you, you are the most infuriating busybody. I'm not sitting with you.
[After Frasier takes his drink and walks away from the table, Niles pulls out his pad and starts writing]
‘The Show Where Diane Comes Back’ Quotes
Quote from Frasier
Franklin: Could we just stop for a second? This whole getting-left-at-the-altar thing— I just don't know what I'm supposed to be feeling.
Frasier: I may be able to illuminate that for you! What you are feeling is that this woman has reached into your chest, plucked out your heart, and thrown it to her hell-hounds for a chew toy! And it's not the last time either! Because that's what this woman is! She is the devil! There's no use running away from her, because no matter how far you go, no matter how many years you let pass, you will never be completely out of reach of those bony fingers! So, drink hearty, Franklin, and laugh! Because you have made a pact with Beelzebub! And her name is Mary Ann!
Quote from Frasier
Daphne: I wish someone would just tell me who this woman is, and why we're trying to impress the pants off her.
Frasier: She's a one-time Boston barmaid who had a nervous breakdown and ended up in a sanitarium, where I met her, fell for her, and then was so mercilessly rejected by her that to this day there is a sucking chest wound where once there dwelled a heart. [opens the door; breezily:] Diane.
Quote from Martin
Diane: So, there I was, on the balcony of my Malibu beachhouse, when a pod of whales passed by. I knew I had to commune with these gentle giants, so like a flash, I was on the beach, scrambling to my kayak. But cruel fortune interceded, when, not twenty yards offshore, I suddenly discovered myself entangled in an enormous bed of-of, um—
Niles: Sea kelp?
Diane: Exactly right, sea kelp!
Martin: Oh, that's funny. I thought he said "seek help."
