Daphne Quote #393
Quote from Daphne in A Tsar is Born
Dr. Myshkin: This is a copy of the diary of Princess Sonya Romanov, daughter to Tsar Alexander II. At eighteen she fell in love with a commoner, an American.Their union, of course, was forbidden, but Sonya decided to give everything up for love.
Frasier: Quelle elegance.
Dr. Myshkin: She enlisted the aid of a scullery maid, who smuggled money, clothing and this bear clock out of the palace.
Niles: She would elope to America!
Dr. Myshkin: Yes, that was her plan. But when Sonya found her way to the train station under the cover of night, the scullery maid absconded with everything, including the clock.
Niles: Servants!
Frasier: There's a back aching for the lash!
Daphne: I'm moving as fast as I can.

Quote from Martin
Frasier: Oh, Dad. Niles just reminded me of something I'd completely forgotten. When the appraiser mentioned that the bear was from Russia...
Martin: Oh, yeah. Well, it probably got passed down through your great-great grandmother. She was from Russia.
Frasier: A-ha. He said something about the Romanov family?
Martin: Oh, yeah, that, huh? Are you sure you want to hear about this?
Niles: Yes, Dad.
Martin: Well, I guess you would have found out anyway after I died... We're royalty. But I didn't want you to grow up spoiled, so I abdicated and took a job in Seattle on the police force. It was kind of hard giving up that royal way of life, but I think maybe it's the swans that I miss most.
Quote from Niles
Martin: Oh, that's great. We can go anywhere. You know, the first place I want to go is Elmo, Nebraska. We got a whole mess of cousins down there. [exits]
Frasier: Well, we're out fifteen thousand each.
Niles: And we have to take long trips in a Winnebago.
Quote from Martin
Martin: Hey guys, I thought I'd find you here. You know, you just missed seeing yourselves on The Antiques Roadshow. And you know, the phone's been ringing off the hook, everybody wants to buy that bear clock.
Frasier: You're not thinking of selling it, are you?
Martin: You're damn right I am. Some guy just offered me twenty-six thousand for it. I'm gonna buy me a big, honking fishing boat. A Wave Pounder 450 with a fun deck. Good for fishin', cruisin', or just plain tubin'!
Niles: Did you hear that Frasier? We can go tubin'.
