Martin: Do you have kids?
Edward: Just one. George. He's thirty-five and he has consecrated his life ... to bowling. I join him when I can, but...
Martin: You're not wild about it.
Edward: No. I mean the shoes. Strange isn't it, the things we'll do to be close to our children.
Martin: Oh, yeah. I've let Frasier drag me to all kinds of places I didn't want to go to, just so that I could spend some time with him. You know, sometimes it's hard to humor your kids but...
Edward: It's what we do, we're fathers.
Martin: Exactly.
