Frasier Quote #2530

Quote from Frasier in Forgotten But Not Gone

Frasier: Niles.
Niles: Hello, Frasier. I thought we could drive over to wine club together.
Frasier: Actually, I'm thinking about not going.
Niles: Why not?
Frasier: Niles, truth be told, my enthusiasm for the wine club has started to turn.
Niles: I know what you mean. It used to be the wine club. Now it's just the teasing people club.
Frasier: Then let's not go.
Niles: Well, they'll put our names in the absent bottle. We'll have to bring the crackers next time.
Frasier: What if there's no next time?
Niles: What do you mean?
Frasier: Niles, those people don't care about wine.
Niles: Not the way you and I do, no.
Frasier: So what's preventing us from starting a whole new club from scratch?
Niles: We could really get back to basics.
Frasier: Something that's just about wine. And a clear constitutional procedure for enjoying it.
Niles: Yes, only maybe this time the governing body could be bicameral.
Frasier: Well, I don't know, Niles, there is something to be said for the parliamentary system.
Niles: Well, either way we have to have a strong judiciary to keep it in check.
Frasier: God, I love wine.

Quote from Frasier

Frasier: Welcome to "The Wine Corner." I hope you're as excited about this new program as I am. I offer myself as sherpa, a guide, if you will, to lead you through the labyrinth of vintages and wine lists, chateaus and bodegas, and take you hopefully to a whole new level of sophistication...
[later:]
Frasier: In summary, Linda, the year listed on the bottle is not an expiration date. So that wine from 1997 should be perfectly safe to drink.

Quote from Martin

Frasier: I wonder what they're doing at the wine club right now.
Martin: Oh, jeez. Are you gonna do this all night?
Frasier: No, no, Dad, you're right, I'm sorry. It's just that I hate to see a once-proud institution making so many foolish mistakes.
Martin: Well, if it makes you feel any better, the club'll probably fail without you. It'll be no fun. All the members'll resign. This time next month, they'll probably have torn the building down.
Frasier: I never know when you're being facetious.
Martin: Yeah, you do.

Quote from Martin

Frasier: Dad, this isn't necessary.
Niles: Yeah, we-we can talk about this some other time.
Martin: Zip it up, both of you. I just gave up the best meal of my life to come down here, so listen up. Niles, let your brother play.
Niles: Dad, this is not a game. This is a club and Frasier broke the rules!
Frasier: Technically, I-
Martin: Well, then you write a new rule so that Frasier can come back.
Frasier: First, I want an apology-
Martin: I said zip it.
Niles: He did, I heard him.
Martin: Don't get smart. Now, are you gonna let your brother play?
Niles: Dad-
Martin: Are you gonna let your brother play?
Niles: Why-
Martin: Are you gonna let your brother play?
Niles: I-
Martin: Are you gonna let your brother play?
Niles: Fine.
Martin: Am I gonna have any more trouble between you two?
Frasier & Niles: No.
Martin: No, what?
Frasier & Niles: No, sir.
Martin: Good. Now shake hands. That's more like it. Now, if you don't mind, I've got a big plate of Gewurzplatzchen waiting for me at home with my name on it.
