[Act One]
[Scene One - Café Nervosa.
Niles is in a cue at the counter. A man is in front ordering as three
waiters work]
Customer: Half caff latte, please.
Waiter 1: [shouts] Half caff latte!
Waitress: [shouts] Half caff latte!
Waiter 2: [shouts] Half caff latte!
[A coffee is made and handed to the customer]
Niles: [now first in cue] I rather like this new system, it's
lively.
Waiter 1: Well, it's more efficient. What can I get for you?
Niles: I'll have a double shot, low fat, no foam latte.
Waiter 1: [shouts] Double shot, low fat, no foam latte!
Waitress: [shouts] Double shot, non fat, low foam latte!
Waiter 2: [shouts] Double shot, non fat, no foam latte!
Niles: Excuse me, I think there was a problem in the chain of
command, the middle person reversed part of it. She said,
"A double shot, non fat, low foam latte".
Waiter 1: [shouts] Double shot, non fat, low foam latte!
Waitress: [shouts] Double shot, non fat, low foam latte!
Waiter 2: [shouts] Double shot, non fat, no foam latte!
Niles: No, it happened again, that's not what I want.
Waiter 2: Well, you can tell her youself.
Niles: [to waitress] All right, I'll have a double shot, low fat,
no foam latte.
Waitress: [shouts] Double shot, low fat, no foam latte.
Waiter 2: [shouts] Double shot, low fat, no foam latte. Nutmeg?
Waitress: [shouts] Nutmeg?
Waiter 1: [shouts] Nutmeg?
Niles: No thanks. It inflames my stomach lining.
Waiter 1: [shouts] Inflames his stomach lining!
Waitress: [shouts] Inflames his stomach lining!
Waiter 2: [shouts] Inflames his stomach lining!
Niles: Stop that!
[Niles takes his coffee to his table as Frasier enters and sits with
him. Frasier is weating a bulky red raincoat]
Frasier: Hello, Niles.
Niles: Welcome back. I trust you and Samantha had a pleasant
weekend?
Frasier: Oh, God, it was fabulous. We stayed at this gorgeous cabin
just outside Aspen, we took a chopper every morning to the
top of the mountain, God, I just didn't want it to end.
Niles: That would explain why you're still wearing that ridiculous
jacket in an over heated café.
Frasier: Oh, well, in Aspen they all wear them indoors. Oh, God, the
funniest thing happened in the lodge last night. Jack
Nicholson and Tom Brokaw discovered they were wearing
exactly the same jacket. [laughs] So they staged a mock
fight. Suddenly, Donna Karen flew between them pretending to
referee, I laughed so hard I nearly spilled my toddy on
someone named Puff Daddy.
[The waitress comes over]
Waitress: Can I get anything for you?
Niles: Just a dustpan and broom to sweep up some of these names!
Frasier: Cappucino, please.
[Waitress goes back]
Frasier: Oh, by the way, Niles. Do we have plans for tonight?
Niles: Yes, why?
Frasier: Well, I'm afraid I have to cancel. It's my one month
anniversary with Sam, I'd like to take her to L'escalias for
dinner.
Niles: I understand, of course. One month is quite a milestone,
thanks for the reminder - I need to change my water filter.
[sips coffee] Damn, they put nutmeg on this!
Frasier: Oh, speaking of Meg. Meg Ryan told me the most delightful
story about practical joke Tony Hopkins played on Jodie at
the ramp party for the "Lambs".
Niles: My stomach lining is just not going to get a break today, is
it?!
IT'S NOT YOU, IT'S ME...
NO, IT'S YOU
[Scene Two - Restaurant.
Frasier is sat at the table as Sam arrives]
Sam: Look, I'm sorry I was late, Frasier.
Frasier: Oh, gosh, no, no, that's all right. I took the liberty of
ordering us the "Taste Of Monaco" dinner.
Sam: Oh, good choice.
Frasier: As I recall, that's what you ordered on our first date.
Course, it wasn't food that you were craving that night. You
whisked me away back to my place before the crab cakes could
even arrive. You know, there's no better way to celebrate an
anniversary than with a historical re-enactment. I've got my
costume on underneath!
Sam: Actually, I'm really looking forward to those crab cakes.
Frasier: Oh, great, well, yes, yes, I suppose we should try the food
here once. [laughs] Well, be sure to leave some room, you're
bound to find a little Frasier-mint on your pillow when we
get home! [laughs] By the way, thanks again for this
weekend.
Sam: You're welcome.
Frasier: You know, it's funny, I think it was a real turning point
for us... well, for me. Gee, I was so relaxed, at the
beginning of relationships I'm usually very tentative. I
just have this dark fear that I'm about to be cut loose.
[laughs]
Sam: Frasier...
Frasier: Oh, I know, I know. I'm just being so insecure, it's nice to
know that I'm on solid ground.
Sam: Em, Frasier...
Frasier: I'm standing on quicksand, aren't I?
Sam: I didn't want to talk about this until later...
Frasier: Oh my God!
Sam: I was just... It's not working out between the two of us.
Now, it's not you, it's me. I just don't feel the same way
about us anymore.
Frasier: But things were going so well. What happened?
Sam: Oh, nothing happened. We had a wonderful time together,
Frasier, it's just run its course. I'm sorry.
Frasier: Oh, well, I'm sorry too.
Sam: I hope we can still be friends.
Frasier: Oh, yes, I'd like that too. Well, you know, seeing as we're
friends and all, I suppose there's no reason we shouldn't
stay and enjoy what's sure to be a splendid meal.
Sam: Absolutely.
Frasier: Great.
[There is a eerie silence until the waiter arrives]
Waiter: Your first course. [puts them down]
Frasier: Ah, thank you. Tell me, how many more courses are there?
Waiter: Six, sir.
Frasier: Could you bring those all at once?
[Scene Three - Frasier's Apartment.
Daphne and Martin are eating breakfast. Daphne is reading the
newspaper]
Daphne: Good Lord!
Martin: What?
Daphne: Look at this headline.
[Daphne passes over the paper]
Martin: [reads] "Martin Crane Dead". Wu-hu-oo! Bet you don't need
much coffee after that! Gee, fifty eight, poor guy, hardly
had a life.
Daphne: Handsome fellow, though.
Martin: Yeah, multi-millionaire, decorated war hero, wrote a spy
novel. [reads] "Survived by his wife, Florence, former Miss.
Washington and two sons, Joe, a Marine Corps colonel, and the
professional baseball player, Mickey Crane". [puts paper
down] Nothing like starting the day off jealous of a dead
guy!
[Frasier enters, wearing his lazy clothes, carrying a box]
Frasier: Oh, hello all. [they greet him]
Daphne: You were up and out early today.
Frasier: Yes, well, I thought like taking a walk. I've got a lot on
my mind, I picked up some pastry. [puts it down and sits]
Daphne: Well, whatever it is, you'll cheer up when you see these
photos from your ski weekend. I admit, I took a peek. [hands
them over] I must say, this Sam of yours is quite a catch.
She's gorgeous, smart, stylish...
Frasier: We broke up last night! [discards photos]
Daphne: Orange juice, anyone?
[Daphne exits to the kitchen]
Martin: Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, Fras'.
Frasier: Oh, it's all right. It was a mutual decision. Well, a little
more mutual on her part than mine. Once she dumped me, I
jumped right on board. Anyway, I'll be fine, dad.
Martin: Well, that's the spirit, just put it all behind you.
[Daphne enters]
Frasier: Exactly. But I must admit, I'm having a little difficulty
achieving closure. See, Sam said that her feelings changed
for no reason! Can't help it might have been something
specific about me!
Martin: Now, hold on, don't try to make this your fault!
Daphne: Yeah, she's probably telling the truth. If a woman's trying
to spare your feelings, she'll give you the old, "It's not
you, it's me".
Frasier: That's exactly what she said!
Daphne: Waffles, anyone?
[Daphne exits to kitchen]
Martin: Now, you know, Fras', I know you're always looking for an
explanation for everything but sometimes there isn't one.
Frasier: Yeah, I know dad. It's gonna just drive me crazy. You know,
until I know why it ended, I'll just assume it was any
number of things about me. My self confidence will be
shattered.
Martin: Well, you've got two choices here. You can spend days trying
to figure it out until it drives you nuts or you can do the
smart thing, make a clean break, never talk to her again,
and get on with your life.
[There's a pause whilst Frasier considers this]
Frasier: You're right, dad, that's exactly what I should do. Thank
you.
Martin: No problem.
Frasier: You know, sometimes you're very insightful.
Martin: Well, I've been around the block a few times. [pause] So,
when are you going to go talk to her?
Frasier: Right after my waffles.
[Martin nods after knowing his son for so long as Frasier reads the
paper]
[Scene Four - Outside The King's Crown Court.
Frasier is sat on the steps reading his paper as Sam comes out of the
building]
Frasier: Sam, Sam, what are the chances?! You've found my thinking
place!
Sam: Frasier, listen, I'm ten minutes late for a deposition.
Frasier: Well, we can walk and talk.
Sam: All right.
[They start walking]
Frasier: Look, you know, I'm loving this new arrangement of ours, I
think we being friends thing is going to work out great.
Sam: Uh, listen, could you pick up the pace a little?
[Sam starts walking faster, Frasier can barely keep up]
Frasier: Right. So, how've you been?
Sam: Frasier, I just saw you last night.
Frasier: So you did, and now that you bring up last night... God, you
do walk fast... Er, I'm looking for a little clarification.
Sam: I told you this has nothing to do with you.
Frasier: Yes, but it seems highly unlikely that such a sudden change
could have nothing to do with me. I mean, maybe it is
something that I did unintentionally. [bumps into someone]
I'm sorry, my fault. [moves on] You know, something this
weekend, maybe? I know I played the piano in the lounge a
little too long but who knew General Schwartzkopf was so
crazy for show tunes!
Sam: Frasier, there's nothing I'm not telling you. Sometimes
things just end. Please, try to not take it so personally.
Frasier: All right.
Sam: Right, I really am late, I'll talk to you soon, okay?
Frasier: Take care.
[Sam leaves as Frasier looks after her. He turns around and bumps
into a man carrying some groceries]
Frasier: Oh...
Man: What's the matter with you?
Frasier: That's just it. I don't know!
[End of Act One]
[Act Two]
[Scene One - Frasier's Apartment.
Martin is searching the living room as Niles and Daphne are chatting]
Niles: Where is Frasier? He knows we have "Berveda's", if you're
late they give away your table and make you sit in the
kitchen with the owner's mother.
Martin: What the hell did I do with that remote? Daphne, are you sure
you haven't seen it?
Daphne: Positive.
Martin: They ought to make one with a sensor on it. You get more than
twenty feet from the TV, it senses it and starts beeping.
Maybe for a deaf person they could make one that has purple
smoke coming out of it like some kind of flare system or
something.
[Daphne suddenly holds Martin's face and stares him in the eyes]
Daphne: Mr. Crane, I'm begging you, you've got to get out of the
house more!
[Frasier then enters]
Frasier: Hello all. Oh, Niles, what a pleasant surprise.
Niles: Just what Momma Bervada will say when we pull up a chair!
Frasier: Oh, that's right, dinner, I completely forgot. I took a long
walk after work, I'm sorry, Niles. It must have completely
slipped my mind.
Niles: Yes, well, "Bervada's" out now. I take it you're still
consumed with the Sam situation.
Frasier: I was just trying to figure out what happened.
Niles: The relationship ended, that's what happened.
Frasier: But there's got to be a reason!
[Martin then enters with a broom and sits down. He starts to trying
to change the channel with it]
Niles: See, you're fixated.
Frasier: I am not fixated! [pointing at Martin] That is fixated! Dad,
what the hell are you doing?
Martin: Oh, this is stupid! Maybe if I stick together ten chopsticks
and put a rubber tip on the end for gripping.
[Martin exits to the kitchen as the doorbell sounds. Frasier answers
it to Roz]
Frasier: Oh, hello.
Roz: Hi.
Daphne: I'll be ready in a sec, Roz.
[Daphne leaves to her bedroom]
Roz: [calls] Oh, it's all right, the movie doesn't start till
eight.
Frasier: Oh, yes, that's right, I forgot you two had plans. Come on
in, Roz. You know, I was wondering...
Roz: No! I don't know why Sam broke up with you, okay? Just like
I didn't know two hours ago. Just like Gil and Bulldog and
Miss. Judy from the Arts & Crafts hour didn't know!
Frasier: It never hurts to ask. Miss. Judy had some real insights
before she had to make her popsicle stick run.
[Martin enters from the kitchen as Daphne enters from her room]
Martin: I think I'll go to Duke's, watch the game there.
Frasier: Oh, wait, wait, everybody, before you scatter. I'd like to
ask an enormous favour. In the spirit of, well, self-
improvement. I'd like you to tell me in your own words just
what exactly about me you find unloveable.
[The rest refuse and begin to leave]
Frasier: Wait! Wait, my God, it's really for the sake of our future
relationships. I mean, it just, I know that you're afraid to
hurt my feelings but I can stand a little constructive
criticism. Now, come on, please, what do you think are my
main faults?
Martin: Well, let's start with what you're doing now. You analyse
everything to death. Sam said it wasn't your fault but you
keep digging around and digging around until you drive
everybody nuts.
Frasier: [writing in pad] Okay. Dad thinks I am over analytical.
That's great, we've got the ball rolling, okay, who's next?
Niles?
Niles: I'm sorry, I'm not entirely sure how useful this exercise
is.
Frasier: Niles, I don't care how you feel about it, you're going to
participate!
Niles: Pushy.
Frasier: Well, yes, if that's what it takes to... [realises] Oh,
thank you. [writes it] All right, Daphne, it's your turn,
don't be shy.
Daphne: Well, if I had to choose, I'd say you are a bit of a fuss
budget.
Frasier: Fuss budget! Well, listen, if you don't mind the
substitution, I think maybe "demanding" is more the mot
juste.
Daphne: Pretentious.
Frasier: Right, you see, this is very good. Roz, you must have
something?
Roz: Well, you are a little full of yourself.
Frasier: Great. Okay, pompous.
Roz: And you do tend to ramble on with the callers.
Frasier: [writing] A tad loquacious.
Martin: Pretentious.
Frasier: Dad, I all ready wrote that down.
Martin: Underline it!
[Frasier writes it in]
Niles: Oh, snippy.
Daphne: Sarcastic.
Martin: Bossy.
Niles: Huffy.
Roz: Vain.
[They all start talking to each other about how each one's true until
Frasier stops them]
Frasier: Oh, how nice we've finally found an activity we all enjoy
together!
Roz: Oh, come on, Frasier, why don't you just admit what you're
doing here. This isn't some "help-me-be-a-better-person"
thing. You're trying to figure out what you can fix so you
can win Sam back.
Frasier: Oh, now, Roz, that's proposterous.
Roz: Look who you're talking to! I've been down this road so many
times, I call it "The Roz Expressway".
Niles: I've heard that phrase before but in a slightly different
context.
[Roz gives a sharp look as Niles goes off to pour a sherry]
Frasier: Well, all right, maybe there is some truth in what you say,
I mean, after all, Sam is really quite a catch, why wouldn't
I want to get her back?
Roz: But you shouldn't change yourself just to please her. It's
not healthy, and it doesn't work, and if it did, Steve
Wilson would be my husband and not just some name tattoed on
my butt!
Daphne: If you want my advice; the best thing you can do is nothing.
Just leave her be to think about what she's missing out on.
Roz: I totally agree. No candy, no flowers and what ever you do,
don't call.
Frasier: Well, I don't see anything wrong with keeping the lines of
communication open.
Roz: Oh God, you called didn't you?
Frasier: Well, maybe I left a carefully worded message.
Roz: Oh, Frasier, you never call somebody who's broken up with
you. It makes you look desperate.
Frasier: Well, I didn't have any choice, she wouldn't return any of
my pagers! [realises] Oh God, I've blown it haven't I?
Daphne: Well, that depends. What did you say in your message?
Frasier: Well, nothing undignified. Of course, tone of voice is
everything, isn't it? You know, maybe I should just play
them for you.
Roz: Wait, you have her access code for her answering machine?
Frasier: Yes, luckily I set it up with her. I gave her an access code
that would be easy to remember - my birthday.
Martin: What's so easy about May 7th?
Frasier: I wouldn't know, dad, my birthday's in March!
Martin: Oh, that's right. The seventh, that's Eddie!
[Frasier keys in the machine]
Frasier: Okay, okay, here we go. All right, now, listen and tell me
if you think I sound desperate.
[The machine beeps]
Secretary: [v.o] Hi, Sam. Two quick things - dinner at L'escalias is
not at 8:30 and the judge needs to see you at nine
tomorrow morning and not ten. Bye.
Niles: I didn't get desperate, I got feminine!
Frasier: Shut up, Niles!
[The machine beeps]
Frasier: [v.o] Hello, Sam, it's Frasier. Give me a call, if you get a
chance. Bye.
Daphne: You don't sound desperate at all.
[The machine beeps]
Frasier: [v.o] Hi, Sam, I forgot to mention I'll be at the office.
Call me. It's Frasier.
Niles: Well, maybe just a whiff of desperation.
[The machine beeps]
Frasier: [v.o] Hi, I'm at the office now.
[The machine beeps]
Frasier: [v.o] Still at the office.
[The machine beeps]
Frasier: [v.o] I stepped out to the coffee machine. Thought I might
have missed you.
Niles: How quickly a whiff becomes a stench!
[The machine beeps]
[Frasier's voice comes through the machine as he switches it off]
Frasier: You know, they just get worse after that.
Martin: There's more?
Frasier: Yes. [presses button] Not anymore though. There, messages
erased.
Roz: Hey, your messages were not the only ones on there. What
about the one from her secretary about the meeting with the
judge?
Frasier: Oh, my God, you're right. That did sound important.
Roz: So, what are you going to do about it?
Frasier: Well, I guess I could just call back and leave a message
saying that I inadvertantly erased the message of hers while
I was erasing a bunch of other messages that I left earlier.
Roz: With her secret access code!
Frasier: [realising] Right! Oh, God, this is humiliating.
Martin: Now, Frasier, I hate to appear unsupportive, but I've got to
get to Duke's for the game.
Roz: Yeah, and we're going to be late for that movie.
Daphne: Oh, wait, I forgot my purse.
[Daphne goes to get purse from kitchen]
Martin: Oh, don't worry about it Frasier. You'll be fine, you'll
bounce back. You're tough.
Roz: And resourceful.
Niles: Resilient.
Martin: Optimistic.
Niles: Tenacious.
Daphne: Conceited.
Martin: Different list, Daph'!
[Daphne, Martin and Roz leave the apartment as Frasier sits at the
table with Niles. He looks at the photos]
Frasier: It's hard to believe this picture was taken only three days
ago. Look at us. How happy I was. Now, I'll never see her
again.
Niles: Aren't you over dramatising? You're bound to run into her
now and then.
Frasier: No, I was talking about me and Lesley Stahl.
Niles: You know, looking at these photos, I can't help noticing
there are very few of you and Sam together.
Frasier: What are you getting at?
Niles: Well, I'm just wondering how much you really feel for this
woman?
Frasier: Oh, don't be ridiculous, I haven't felt this way for ages.
Niles: I'm sorry. I guess I was wrong. It's love then.
[Niles pours a sherry]
Frasier: Well, I don't know about love. We've only been seeing each
other for a month.
Niles: But you could see yourself falling in love with her?
Frasier: Possibly.
Niles: Some time down the line?
Frasier: Yes, yes, perhaps.
Niles: Well, no wonder you're heartbroken. You've just lost the
only woman you could even possibly sometime down the line
perhaps fall in love with. I'm surprised the country music
people haven't jumped all over this one!
Frasier: Oh, all right, so I don't rhapsodise about her.
Niles: No, you did rhapsodise when she took you to "Le Cigare
Volant" and you were seated in a secret VIP room we never
knew existed.
Frasier: What are you suggesting? That I'm so shallow I was with her
mainly for her connections?
Niles: I wouldn't put it as harshly as that but let's face it, ever
since we were young, you've had a yearning to run with the
cool kids and it's never worked out for you. Your one day on
the football team? The summer you bought that motorcycle.
Although, to be accurate...
Frasier: Hey, it's only a moped if you pedal it and I never pedaled!
Niles: I just wonder if what you're mourning is not so much the
loss of Sam, it's the loss of her celebrity lifestyle.
Frasier: I must admit things never did seem quite right between us.
God, if it hadn't been for her friends, I probably would
have broken it off myself. Oh, God, shame on me.
Niles: Don't punish yourself, Frasier. At least you're deep enough
to realise you're shallow. [pause] Dinner?
Frasier: Let's.
Niles: All right.
Frasier: All though, I've still got to phone her about that message.
Niles: Oh, you know what. Why don't we stop by "L'escalias" on our
way to dinner. You can just run in and tell her in person.
Frasier: Even better! God, Niles, I can't tell you helpful this has
been. Really, how can I ever repay you?
Niles: You can start by getting me into that VIP room in "Le Cigare
Volant" - where is the entrance? [guesses] By the cigarette
machine?
Frasier: No, that's just a decoy. It's through the dry cleaner's next
door.
Niles: No.
[Niles and Frasier exit]
IF IT'S BARBRA,
I'LL KILL MYESLF
[Scene Two - Restaurant.
Sam is sat at a table as Frasier enters to greet her]
Frasier: Hello, Sam.
Sam: Frasier.
Frasier: I know you didn't expect to see me tonight.
Sam: Well, of course after all the messages, I'm not totally
surprised.
Frasier: Oh God, you heard them?
Sam: I checked my machine this afternoon. Frasier, I think we
really need to talk.
Frasier: No, no, we don't. I promise you I will never call you again.
I've thought about this and believe me you made the right
decision.
Sam: No, no, I didn't.
Frasier: Excuse me?
Sam: Yes. Please, sit down. [he does] I was going to call you
later anyway. You see, I think I figured out what happened
between the two of us. I panicked. You see, I was starting
to really care about you. I thought we might even have a
future, even, and, well, it scared well. But the way you
pursued me, showing up at the courthouse and leaving all of
those messages and now you're here. Obviously, you feel just
as strongly as I do. It's funny really. The both of us
falling in love so fast and not realising the other one felt
the same way. We should be laughing.
[Frasier fakes a laugh and then tires]
Frasier: Oh, listen, Sam...
Sam: No, no, I'm going to tell you what we're going to be doing
this weekend. We're taking the concord to London for a party
at Alec Guiness' place.
Frasier: I'm not so sure that... [realises] Sir Alec Guiness?
Sam: Yes, well, I know it's a long way to go but Stephen is going
to be there, he's promised to play some songs for the new
one.
Frasier: I don't know... [realises] Stephen Sondheim?
Sam: Yes, oh, and you'll never guess who'll be singing with him.
Frasier: [cringes] No, please don't tell me, please.
Sam: Frasier, what is it? You seem upset.
Frasier: Sam, I can't see you anymore.
Sam: What?
Frasier: I think you're an incredible woman but I've come to a
realisation about us, well about me, and I just don't see
any future for us. I know it sounds strange after the way I
was pursuing you but I... I've been in it for all the wrong
reasons.
Sam: Like what?
Frasier: Well, I'm not very proud of this, but maybe I was a little
dazzled by the circle you travel in.
Sam: So you were with me just so you could be around some famous
people?
Frasier: It's not as though I wasn't fond of you as well.
Sam: Fond of me? Oh, well, thank you very much.
Frasier: But I understand that you're upset and I'm just gonna go.
Sam: I don't believe this... my friend!
Frasier: I know it's shallow and it's something I'm going to have to
work on.
[Lesley Stahl walks up behind them and greets Sam]
Lesley: Hi, Sam, how are you?
Frasier: [star struck] Lesley, hello. Dr. Frasier Crane, we met this
weekend.
Lesley: Oh, are how you?
Sam: What kind of sick bastard are you?
Frasier: Don't worry, we're just having a little bit of a spat. But,
of course, I don't need to tell you, being the ace reporter
that you are.
Sam: Just get out of here right now!
Frasier: Right, right, okay. [then to Leslie] Listen, if you're in
town for a while, maybe we can have lunch?
Sam: Get out!
Frasier: What is the matter with me?!
[Frasier goes up onto the balcony and looks back]
Frasier: Lesley. [gestures towards her that he'll ring her]
[Sam throws a bread roll at him and he runs out, scared by himself]
[End of Act Two]
Credits:
[Martin is sat watching the television in Frasier's apartment and
decides he needs to change the channel. He picks up his invention
from the side of his chair: lots of chopsticks tied together with a
rubber tubing for gripping. This seems to be successful. Meanwhile,
Daphne watches him and rolls her eyes. She puts away some magazines
on to the shelf and finds the remote control. She decides to have a
bit of fun and changes the channel back on the television. Martin,
not realising Daphne found the remote, thinks there's something wrong
with the television and changes it back. This carries on for a while
until Martin just starts hitting the television with his invention]
