Summary: Since Maris' murder case appeared in the news, Niles has acquired a certain celebrity status in Seattle, socializing with figures like Bill Gates . Frasier cannot help being annoyed by this, and he finds Roz in a similar position; she is receiving a visit from her "perfect" married sister, Denise. Frasier hopes to regain some notoriety when he is nominated twice for the Seattle broadcasting awards (the "SeaBees"), and Kenny arranges for a news reporter to shadow him on the day of the ceremony. Unusually, it takes place in the morning, and in the absence of a date, Frasier asks Denise to take the part just for presentation. Niles is also in attendance, and the reporter is keen to ask him questions - although this turns out to be the least of Frasier's problems.
