I mean, I'd kill for a cup of regular coffee, but I'm still nursing so I can't. You know, it was all I could do just to get myself dressed and then feed the baby this morning. Frasier: Yes, you know, next time maybe you should try feeding first and dressing second. [He points to a large stain on her blouse.] Roz: Oh, my God! How did I miss this? Frasier: Well... on the plus side, it does divert the eye from the blueberries in your teeth. Roz: What?! I can't go to this interview like this. Frasier: Of course you can. Roz: Oh, I'm just gonna call and cancel. Frasier: No, no, no, Roz, please! Just check your teeth, put your jacket on and I swear you'll look every inch the smart career gal on the go. There. Roz gets up and organizes herself. Martin walks in. Roz: Thanks, Frasier. Martin: Hey, Roz. Is that the newest thing, wearin' two different shoes
