Roz Quote #319
Quote from Roz in Our Parents, Ourselves
Frasier: Now, Dad hasn't dated anybody since he and Sherry broke up, I'm starting to worry he's lost his nerve. A date with your mom could be a tremendous favor to him.
Roz: I don't know.
Frasier: Oh, come on, I'll tell you what. I know it's awkward but there's a way to minimize that. Niles and I are having dinner with him tonight. We'll take him to McGinty's, he'll feel comfortable, you and your mother can just happen by. We'll see what transpires, you know, they'll never even know it's a fix-up.
Roz: Oh, what the hell, I'll give it a shot, I guess. How's five sound?
Frasier: Five? Your mother is ready for dinner at five?
Roz: I keep her on Wisconsin time, that way she's in bed by eight.

Niles: Yes.
Frasier: And how did you earn that honorific?
Niles: Oh, it was quite the merry road. Yes. It evolved from Niles to Nilesy to Niley to Nile E. Coyote and now simply "The Coyote."

Niles: Oh, well, just when I thought it couldn't be refined any further.

Frasier: Sounds reasonable.
Sophie: "Exactly. I mean, it's just football."
Larry: "Not football, Einstein. It's the Super Bowl."
Frasier: Ah, that would be your doting husband now.
Sophie: "Larry, this is a private conversation. And for God's sake, use a plate."
Frasier: Sophie, why don't you put your husband on the line?
Sophie: "Pick up."
Larry: "Ah, geez. Hello."
Frasier: Larry, I gotta tell you, I'm afraid I side with your wife on this one.
Larry: "That just proves you don't know the first thing about football."

Larry: "Okay, how's this: My wife's friends can come over if you can answer even one little football question. Like..."

Larry: "You're down by six. You're on your own. Forty-three seconds left. What do you do?"
Frasier: Well, all right, you would...

Larry: "Yeah, and what's the name for that?"
[Roz gets down on her knees, does the mark of the cross on her face, puts her hands together and looks to the heavens]
