Well, my husband is always criticising me because in restaurants I like to listen in on strangers' conversations.
I don't know why he makes such a big deal out of nothing.
Well June, I suppose your lack of interest makes your husband feel invisible.
Imagine what it must be like to sit across from someone who's constantly scanning, searching craning their neck to see Just what the hell is going on out there? Oh gosh, you're right! I've been insensitive.
It's just common decency -to stay focused on the other person.
-Huh? What? -Oh, well, good for you, Jane! -June! -Oh, yeah, well, whatever! Er, this is Dr Frasier Crane.
KACL 780.
What is going on? Oh, our beloved station manager decided -we're not getting our raise this year! -What? This is an outrage! I have a contract! Don't palpitate, it doesn't apply to the on-air talent.
Oh, thank God.
I'm sorry I was being selfish, wasn't I? I, er, feel very ashamed.
It is nevertheless er, an outrage.
It's not a personal outrage but certainly a, a family of man outrage.
Frasier, I spent that raise already - on my new diamond earrings! I love them.
I love them so much, I slept with them! Well, Roz, as long as you're doing it for love it's a step in the right direction! Real supportive, Frasier! We've been getting that raise every year and now this Nazi in nylons comes waltzing in here and cancels it with some vague crap about corporate belt-tightening.
This isn't fair! Oh, oh, actually you're right! Er you, maybe you should tell her what you just told me.
Er, except I would leave out the "Nazi in nylons" bit.
It's not your best icebreaker.
Oh, you're damn right we're gonna tell her! -We've all been here a hell of a lot longer than she has! -That's right! She pushes us, we push back! -She's standing right behind me, isn't she? -Yeah.
Is there a problem? Nope? Good.
Kate? -Doc? -Er, these people would like to speak with you.
No, I'm sorry, I can't talk right now.
-I've got a meeting.
-Well I-I'm sorry, excuse me? I think your meeting can wait five minutes.
Now they're a little upset about your memo.
-I think you should discuss it with them.
-Dr Crane I wrote the memo I signed the memo, I posted the memo.
If I had anything more to say, I would have put it -Anybody? -In the memo? -Bravo.
Okay.
If she wants to play tough, we'll play tough back.
We still have a lot of power here.
Now we could go on strike Look, look, you know er, I, I think you should listen to Roz.
Every year in exchange for your hard work you receive a five percent raise.
Now, you've fulfilled your part of the bargain.
She has blithely changed the deal.
In the 'hood, they call that "being dissed.
" Yes, my streetwise friend.
-You have a right to stand up for yourselves.
-Okay.
We gonna do this? Are we together? -What's the point? If we strike they'll just replace us.
They only care about the on-air people.
Aaah, so we'll get their support! Frasier just said he's on our side! I did? Well, well, yes I, I did, I did, yes.
But my meagre endorsement is is meaningless without the support of the other talent.
Did you hear that? Frasier's gonna get everyone on our side! Er I, I'd love to, to help, but you know I'm already in hot water with that woman! You can't ask me to raise a mutiny against her! "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one.
" James Tiberius Kirk, Captain, Starship Enterprise.
Go away, you annoying little man.
Please? Oh alright, alright! You organise your people, I'll talk to mine! Hey, beat it.
Hey, if you can't run with The Bulldog, stay on the porch.
-Niles.
-Good evening, Frasier.
You left your Mont Blanc in my car, so I Oh.
I see cocktails.
Hors d'oeuvres.
Mingling.
If I were the suspicious type I'd say you were throwing a party to which I was not invited.
-Feel like a wiener, Niles? -Indeed I do.
Niles, this is not a party.
And dad, that is fourteen-dollar- a-pound andouille sausage.
Wow.
Means Eddie ate about thirty bucks' worth.
Niles, these people are colleagues from the station.
We're here to discuss a labour dispute.
Oh, well.
Fight on, people! You know, there is no greater friend to the working man than my own Maris.
Remember, when our stable boy Wakim's appendix burst? She had him driven back to the border at her own personal expense! -Ah, good evening, Frasier! -Gil, Sheryl, Floyd! Oh! What a stunning apartment! The palette is pure, subtle elegance! The detailing well, it's inspired! And the furnishings Oh, dear.
Is that a chair? -That is my father's chair.
-Oh.
Well this must be your father! -Hi - Marty Crane.
You put on quite a show! Oh, you've heard my little programme? No, I mean just coming through the door.
Doc, doc! Can we hurry this thing up? I got a charity event tonight.
She's not much to look at, but what the hell.
Okay, well, since we're all here Er, now, regarding management's claim of financial distress I've done some checking around and I've found that the advertising revenues are up eleven-and-a-half per cent -Gil Chesterton, the restaurant critic! -Yes.
Oh, I just love those wicked things you say when the food is bad! Well, keep bringing these and you won't be disappointed! The wage freeze is unwarranted.
It is simply a ploy of an overly ambitious station manager and typical of this woman! She has terrorised us, she has tampered with our shows.
-It's time we said no to this Princess of Darkness! -I got a better idea.
Why don't we just walk up to Mike Tyson and tell him he talks funny? What about our support staff? If we don't back this strike, they may lose their jobs! They're powerless without our support.
Frasier, old man, why do they need raises? You're talking about people who eat corn dogs and nachos.
That statement is appallingly elitist.
Well thank you, Mister Everyday People! Hey, I'm sure we'd all like to help these people, but we need our jobs.
We're working stiffs too living from paycheck-to- paycheck just like they are.
Excuse me, someone's blocking me in downstairs.
Who has a BMW? A red BMW.
-With a red interior.
-Oh, that's me! Just give me your key; I'll leave it to the doorman.
-Oh, no no.
I was just leaving.
-Oh, I'm going too.
Where are your ethics? Where's your conscience? Where's your john? I need to slap on some Canoe.
Hey, I'm with you people! To heck with the workers.
-They're not yours! -Hey, damn right! And chances are, after the station manager crushes the little people she won't come after you big shots.
Right.
Why would she? Well, I mean er, supposing she's trying to save money you're the big ticket items.
Erm, after all this, well, she won't have to worry about the support staff backing you guys up, will she? Oh but no, that's crazy.
You're not suggesting that Kate might be coming after our money next? No, she wouldn't do that! She's a peach, right? Soft as a cream puff.
And we all know no-one here is overpaid Suddenly, I'm feeling very Norma Rae.
Great! I'll get us some more wine.
Dad, that was brilliant, using reverse psychology! I guess living with me is rubbing off on you a little bit.
Well, I guess it's only natural that environmental factors -would influence personality development -Alright.
Well, oh wait I, I hope I didn't hit -some long-repressed Oedipal nerve -Very funny.
Because the last thing we want is for you to be sublimating your anger passive/aggressive Oh, alright! Just stop it, you wise ass! Ha-hey! Looks like I'm rubbing off on you, too! Alright, people! I have spoken -with the on-air talent, and I -Shhh! Ixnay, Dr Crane Ah, yes.
You've really dropped the cone of silence now.
