TEXT: Act 1 Scene 1 <unk> KACL Frasier is doing the show and signs off for a commercial break. Roz comes into the booth. Frasier: This is Dr. Frasier Crane. We'll be right back after this. Roz: OK, after this spot we're gonna come back in 15 seconds, you do a station ID and then toss it to the news. I'll count you down. Frasier: That won't be necessary. I have a built in mental stopwatch. As a child playing "Hide and Go Seek" I was the only one who didn't need to say, "One Hippopotamus Two Hippopotamus." Roz: Frasier, I've heard you. You're always either talking into the news or running short. Frasier: I am not! Roz: [taking money out her pocket] I'll bet you 20 bucks you blow this one. Frasier: All right, you're on. Roz: [looking at the clock] No, you are. Roz runs back through to the booth. Frasier starts the show again. Frasier: Hello, we're back. This is Dr. Frasier Crane tuning in for our second hour on the "Dr. Frasier Crane Show." In our first hour we covered everything from anorexia to xenophobia. What will be next? As always of course that's entirely up to you. So stick around <unk> the Doctor is in and he's listening. [Frasier finishes, proud with himself until he realises he's forgotten a part and tries to rush it in] Ooh, this is KACL 780 AM... The news cuts in over him and he throws down his headphones in disgust. By this time Kate Costas has walked into the studio. Kate: That was very smooth. Frasier: Thank you. Roz: [collecting her money off Frasier] Oh, let's see. <unk>One Andrew Jackson, Two Andrew Jackson...<unk> Kate: Look Frasier, I've been getting a lot of complaints from sponsors saying that their ads are getting buried in huge commercial blocks. Frasier
SUMMARY:
Roz gets Frasier to reveal the identity of "dirty girl", with whom he had an affair that was accidentally broadcast live on KACL . Frasier finds himself thinking about Kate constantly, and wondering if they made the right decision not to pursue any relationship. Daphne encourages him not to let fear of rejection get in his way, but just as Frasier is on the point of broaching the subject with Kate at work, she announces that she is moving to Chicago that night to start a new job. They say goodbye and that seems to be the end, but Niles decides to call around later that day with a video of Casablanca , and the ensuing conversation starts Frasier thinking again.
