Frasier Quote #14

Quote from Frasier in The Good Son

Frasier: I'm just trying to do the right thing here. I'm trying to be the good son.
Martin: Oh, don't worry, son. After I'm gone, you can live guilt-free knowing you've done right by your Pop.
Frasier: You think that's what this is all about? Guilt?
Martin: Isn't it?
Frasier: Of course it is! But the point is I did it. I took you in. And I got news for you, I wanted to do it because you're my father! And how do you repay me? Ever since you moved in here, it's been a snide comment about this or a smart little put-down about that. Well, I've done my best to make a home here for you. And once. Just once, would it have killed you to say "thank you"? One lousy "thank you"?
Martin: Come on, Eddie, it's past your dinner time.
Frasier: I'm going out.

Quote from Frasier

Niles: Of course, I can't take care of him.
Frasier: Oh, yes, of course. Of course. Why?
Niles: Because Dad doesn't get along with Maris.
Frasier: Who does?
Niles: I thought you liked my Maris.
Frasier: I do. I like her from a distance. You know, the way you like the sun. Maris is like the sun, except without the warmth.

Quote from Martin

Delivery Man: Where do you want it?

Delivery Man: What about this chair?
Niles: The chair? Here, let me get it out of your way.

Quote from Roz

Roz: Ever heard of Lupe Velez?
Frasier: Who?
Roz: Lupe Velez. The movie star in the '30s. Well, her career hit the skids so she decided she'd make one final stab at immortality. She figured if she couldn't be remembered for her movies, she'd be remembered for the way she died. And all Lupe wanted was to be remembered. So, she plans this lavish suicide. Flowers, candles, silk sheet, white satin gown, full hair and make-up, the works. She takes the overdose of pills, lays on the bed and imagines how beautiful she's going to look on tomorrow's front page. Unfortunately, the pills don't set well with the enchilada combo plate she sadly chose as her last meal. She stumbles to the bathroom, trips and goes head-first into the toilet. And that's how they found her.
Frasier: Is there a reason you're telling me this story?
Roz: Yes. Even though things may not happen like we planned, they can work out anyway.
Frasier: Remind me again how it worked for Lupe, last seen with her head in the toilet.
Roz: All she wanted was to be remembered. Will you ever forget that story?
