Daphne: Oh dear, your chair's got another big rip in the bottom. Martin: [looks] Where? [spots it] Oh! Hand me my re-upholstery kit, would you? [She slings him a large roll of duct tape] Thanks. He kneels down to patch the rip. Frasier comes out of the hall dressed in his best suit. Daphne: Oh, Dr. Crane, don't you look smart. Frasier: Well, I don't feel smart. I let Roz set me up another one of her blind dates. Daphne: Who's the lucky woman? Frasier: Oh, a friend from her aerobics class. Oh, perhaps it won't be so bad. She's thirty-two, has a terrific body, and apparently thinks I'm God's gift to broadcasting. Martin: Well, at least you have one thing in common.

  SUMMARY:
output: Niles is moving into an exclusive new apartment building: The Montana. Anxious to make a good impression, he plans to throw a dinner party for his new neighbours, one of whom is a young woman (Stephanie) who has taken a shine to Frasier. After being forced to part with his whippet , who he finally realises was essentially a canine substitute for his ex-wife Maris , Niles acquires a cockatoo called Baby. The bird is easily startled by sharp noises, such as the doorbell. This starts to cause problems on the evening of the dinner party, when she is traumatised by Frasier lighting the fire, and digs her claws into Niles' scalp. She subsequently refuses to let go, and grips tighter every time the doorbell sounds as the guests arrive. Frasier is compelled to play host, leaving little time to talk to Stephanie.
