When the new station manager tasks Frasier with helping his fiancee quit smoking, Frasier gets more than he bargained for.

Quote from Gil

[After Bulldog convinced him that the new station owner was Greek:]
Gil: Well, I hope you're happy. I've just given four stars to a restaurant called "A Taste Of Greece." Which, trust me, is no misnomer.

Quote from Bebe

Frasier: Well, you know, Bebe, there are other Big Willys out there, better ones. Richer, older... impotent!
Bebe: Oh dear, you always know what to say. I know what hell I put you through over this. I insist that you take this, as a small token of my gratitude.
Frasier: Oh, Bebe, really. Look, Roz. It's a gold Rolex. Oh my goodness. Bebe, where did you get this?
Bebe: Just don't wear it to the funeral.

Quote from Roz

Bebe: Isn't it wonderful? We met last month and it was love at first sight.
Roz: First sight of what? His bankbook and a cardiogram?

Quote from Bebe

Frasier: I'm afraid there won't even be a wedding if you can't get rid of that rotten habit, and he's just ordered me to see that you do.
Bebe: God, you'd think a touch of emphysema were the end of the world.

Quote from Bebe

Daphne: Well, I smoked for years but I never became addicted. To this day, I can buy a pack, have a cig or two, toss them in a drawer and not crave another for months.
Bebe: You know there's a word for people who can do that. What is it? Oh, yes ... bitch!

Quote from Niles

Niles: Hello, Frasier. I noticed you were out of capers the other night, so I got you this. [Niles reveals a massive jar of capers]
Frasier: Thank you, Niles, but why so many?
Niles: I just discovered a place called Price Buster's Warehouse. You have to buy in bulk, but the savings are extraordinary and they have a huge selection. I found French fries and French doors in the same aisle.
Frasier: Well, the next time you go back be sure to buy me a thousand swordfish so I can use these up.
Niles: You laugh, but I could do it like that. [clicks fingers]

Quote from Martin

Martin: Well, I keep telling you, you don't have Maris's money to throw around anymore. You're going to have to start cutting back a little.
Niles: Well, I have cut back. Last month I told my masseur I could only see him once a week.
Martin: Oh, I remember that scene in "Grapes Of Wrath" when Ma Joad did that.

Quote from Niles

Daphne: You know, if you need to save a bit, you should do what I do and cut out coupons.
Niles: Coupons. Well, what a wonderful way to economize. Well, I could clip them and give them to my personal shopper.

Quote from Niles

Frasier: Daphne, has Bebe Glazer called back yet?
Daphne: 'fraid not.
Niles: You're still consorting with that barracuda?
Frasier: Well, a barracuda is what you want in an agent, Niles. It's just that the station's been sold, I was hoping she might have some scuttlebutt on the new owner.
Frasier: I must admit she's rather hard to get a hold of these days.
Niles: Oh, really? I thought one just drew a pentagram on the floor and chanted "I summon thee" three times.

Quote from Niles

Niles: This is great. I don't even know what "Renuzit" is, but it's twenty cents off and I want it.
Roz: You're clipping coupons?
Niles: I'm economizing.
Roz: Oh, well, it's about time, you spend money like a drunken sailor.
Niles: She said authoritatively.
