Martin Quote #82

Quote from Martin in You Can't Tell a Crook by His Cover

Roz: What brings you here?
Frasier: Well, I'm just showing Dad around, then he's gonna sit and listen to the show.
Martin: Yeah, it's kinda like payback for when Frasier and Niles were kids. I used to take them to the police station and show them where I worked.
Frasier: Yes. He used to make a big game of locking us in one of the cells and then pretending to lose the key.
Martin: I was just joking with them, I knew they weren't scared.
Frasier: Well, no. We weren't really scared, although after a while we did become quite hungry.

Quote from Martin

Frasier: Frank's an interesting study, isn't he? Temper, loner, a bit unsocial. Almost a stereotypical portrait of a man who's spent his entire life behind bars.
Frank: [examining one of Frasier's artworks] This dish a Lalique or a Steuben?
Martin: They had no spots open in the prison laundry. He worked in fine china and glassware.

Quote from Niles

Niles: Good lord! What was he like?
Frasier: Actually, he was quite personable. You know Dad, he's so judgmental.
Niles: He is, and I've often condemned him for it.
