TEXT: Skyline: A crane is seen on the horizon lifting a load. ACT I Scene 1 - Café Nervosa Frasier enters happily. Frasier: Can I get my usual, please? He sits at a table with Roz. Roz: Well, you're in a good mood. What's up? Frasier: Well, actually... no, I'd better not. Don't want to jinx it. Roz: No problem. Frasier: Besides, the mark of a-a true gentleman is discretion. Roz: [not as interested as Frasier wants her to be] Okay. Listen, about your dad's bachelor party... Frasier: Charlotte and I spent the night together. Roz: I thought she was seeing that super-hottie Frank. Frasier: Dumped him, thank you. Roz: For you? [then] I mean, wow, way to go! Frasier: Yes, I know. It's funny I should end up with my own matchmaker, isn't it? Roz: Yeah, I mean that Frank was the whole package. Those eyes, that chin, that bod that wouldn't quit... Frasier: Yes, well, it didn't have to quit, it was fired. Frasier's coffee arrives. Frasier: Thank you very much. [to Roz] Now, you were saying something about my dad's bachelor party? Roz: Yeah. Weren't you having a problem deciding on the entertainment? Frasier: Oh, yes. Roz: Well, there's this girl in my spin class, and she does it all - strips, lap dances, movies. Frasier: Really? Would I be familiar with her work? Roz: I don't know, have you seen "Grinding Nemo"? Anyway, I invited her over here so you could check her out. She's going to be here any second. Her name is Amber Licious. Frasier: Really, well, I'm afraid I can't do it right now. I'm meeting Charlotte for coffee, uh- Roz: Well, you can tell her yourself.
SUMMARY:
Having spent the night with Charlotte, Frasier is very pleased with himself. However, his good mood disappears when, while driving her to the station to catch a train to Portland, she tells him that in three weeks she will be moving back home to Chicago . Neither wants a long-distance relationship , so they are compelled to consider breaking up before things get more serious. In the midst of this conversation, they miss the train, so Frasier drives to the next station. Owing to his over-careful driving, they miss it again, and then the car breaks down on the way to the next station, leaving them stranded in the middle of nowhere. Fortunately, they find the house of an experienced car mechanic and his family, but they turn out to be rather eccentric. Meanwhile, in Frasier's absence, Niles is left to organize the entertainment for Martin's bachelor party , and Roz has found him a stripper . For Niles that she is coming round to be interviewed on the same day as Daphne's new nanny , while the stripper is mistaken for Martin's new physiotherapist .
