Martin: What do you think about all this vision stuff?
Frasier: Obviously there's some psychological reason that she's having second thoughts. It's got nothing to do with an apparition in a red bow tie.
[Frasier opens the door to a grinning Niles, who is wearing a red bow tie]
Frasier: Niles, you jackass, will you take that thing off?

Niles: But why else would she come to me?
Frasier: Surely, you of all people realizes that there is some psychological basis for these visions of hers. It represents a fear of some kind. A fear of intimacy, a fear of commitment, a fear of the Windsor Knot. Who knows?

Niles: Well, it's just as possible that she knew those men were wrong for her. Isn't that right, Dad?
Martin: Leave me out of this. I'm just looking for my TV Guide.
Niles: Well, I could use a little support here.
Martin: Well, maybe that's why I said to leave me out of it. I'm sorry, Niles. I want you to be happy, but I'm with your brother on this.
Frasier: Niles, the fact is you don't know what causes these visions, and yet you still advised her to walk away from a wonderful relationship. It doesn't make you much of a psychiatrist.
Niles: That's your opinion.
Frasier: Yes well, here's a second opinion. It doesn't make you much of a friend.

Daphne: That'll be Donny. Could one of you get the door? Well, you've seen me do it enough times. You just
turn the handle and pull!

Frasier: Oh, Niles, I'm so sorry.
Martin: Frasier, why don't you just take this champagne in there and stay out there for a second? [to Niles] I'd do anything to fix this for you.
Niles: I know. It's my own fault. I had chance after chance to tell her how I feel, and I always kept my mouth shut. 'Til tonight, when I probably should have.
Martin: Well, you can't regret what you said. It was the right thing to do. And that's something I can always count on from you.
Niles: Thanks, Dad.

Frasier: Say, why all the catalogs?
Roz: I need to buy a present.
Frasier: Tiffany, Cartier, Neiman Marcus.
Roz: So does anything look good to you here?
Frasier: Well, let's see. Who could we be shopping for? Hmm, perhaps a honey-voiced radio therapist who's birthday's just around the corner?
Roz: No, this present is not for you. It's for your brother.
Frasier: Oh, all right, Roz, don't be coy. I think it's very smart you fishing for hints like this. You wanted to avoid a misstep like you made last year.
Roz: What misstep? You said you loved Pagliacci.
Frasier: Yes, I said the opera, not the porcelain crying crown figurine.

[As Niles wanders around his apartment at night, he stumbles upon the present from Roz.]
Niles: Oh, Roz!
[He finally opens it to reveal a red dragon figurine.]

Martin: Hey, Fras. You'll never guess who I just saw. I went over for a cup of coffee with Hank. You remember Hank? He's the security guard who works at Weston's jewelry store. Anyway, we were in his booth, just shooting the breeze, looking at the surveillance monitors, when who do I see buying an engagement ring, but Donny. As in "Daphne & Donny."
Frasier: Donny? Are you sure?
Martin: Yeah. Engagement rings is Tina's counter. We use the zoom lens on her.
Frasier: Dad, I'm shocked!
Martin: Oh, no, it's just innocent fun. She only dresses that way 'cause she knows we're looking at her.

Niles: Hear what from Daphne?
Frasier: I'll tell you at the restaurant.
Niles: No, I don't want to wait till we get to the bistro.
Frasier: You're just going to have to wait.
Martin: And you're not going to any bistro.

Niles: Daphne, what are you doing here?
Daphne: I know I should have called first but I need to talk to you. It's sort of a private matter and I hoped we could talk here.
Niles: Well, it's not really appropriate for me to act as your therapist, but if it's just advice from a friend you need I'd be happy to lend an ear. What's on your mind?
Daphne: Well, I don't think I can marry Donny. I think there's somebody else I'm meant to be with.
[There's a knock at the door]
Niles: [to Daphne] Who is it?
Mrs. Woodson: It's Mrs...
Niles: Oh, for God's sake, go home!
