Niles Quote #869

Quote from Niles in Ask Me No Questions

Niles: [answering the phone] Hello? What is it, pumpkin? Now, now, dear, calm down. I'm sure the banging you hear is just the pipes. If one of the servants had actually been walled in during the remodeling, he would have died weeks ago. Okay, if it will ease your mind at all, why don't you have Marta take role call?
[phone beeps] Hold on a second. [changes line] Hello?
Frasier: [into his phone] Get out!

Quote from Martin

Frasier: Nice cardigan.
Martin: Daphne surprised me with it.
Frasier: You don't seem very happy about it.
Martin: No, well, I'm not. I mean, you just don't give somebody something for no reason, that's my rule.
Frasier: Dad. Spontaneous gift-giving is one of life's great pleasures. Didn't you ever give Mom anything without a warning?
Martin: Yeah, you! Where do you think I got the rule from?

Quote from Niles

Niles: That reminds me, yesterday at the café I asked you a question which you deftly avoided answering. Do you think Maris and I are meant to be together?
Frasier: Right, well. That's a tough question. Well, you know, perhaps the better question would be, do you think you and Maris are meant to be together?
Niles: Hmmm. I serve you up a question, you clumsily bat it back to me. We've hardly missed our squash game at all.

Quote from Martin

Martin: What question?
Frasier: Oh. He asked me if I thought he and Maris were meant to be together.
Martin: Well, if you ask me, you should keep your bazoo shut. You're always getting into trouble opening that big bazoo of yours!
Frasier: How wonderful, Dad, we've found a new word to strike from your vocabulary. Along with patootie and bupkis!
