Martin Quote #26

Quote from Martin in Dinner at Eight

Hostess: Is this your first visit to The Timber Mill?
Frasier: Yes.
Hostess: Well, we've got a dress code.
Frasier: Well, couldn't you make an exception in this case? His suit was at the cleaners.
Hostess: Not him. You. [She cuts off Frasier's tie. A waitress cuts of Niles' tie] Timber! [Bell rings]
Frasier: My tie! She cut off my tie!
Martin: Got you. Isn't that great?
Frasier: Why did she cut off my tie?
Martin: Oh, they've been doing that for years. They like to keep the place casual.
Niles: Dad, you could have mentioned that to us.
Martin: What? And spoil the fun? [laughs] Ah, cheer up. You get a free dessert.

Quote from Martin

Martin: All right, that's it. I've had enough of you two jackasses. I've spent the whole night listening to you making cracks about the food and the health. Well, I've got news for you. People like this place. I like this place. And when you insult this restaurant, you insult me. You know, I used to think you took after your mother, liking the ballet and all that. But you mother liked a good ball game, too. She'd even have a hot dog once in a while. She may have had fancy taste, but she had too much class to make me or anyone else feel second-rate. If she saw the way you two behaved tonight, she'd be ashamed. I know I am.

Quote from Martin

Frasier: Dad, Niles and I and, uh, Maris would like you to join us for dinner on Saturday night at Le Cigare Volant, one of the hottest new restaurants.
Martin: Oh, gee, I don't know.
Niles: Oh, oh. The food is to die for.
Martin: Niles, your country and your family are to die for. Food is to eat.

Quote from Frasier

Waitress: Can I get you something from the bar?
Frasier: Oh, dear God, yes.
Niles: I'll have a Stoli Gibson on the rocks with three pearl onions.
Frasier: If you bring him two, if you bring him four, he'll send it back.
Waitress: And for you?
Frasier: The same.
