- Which one? Remember, he mentioned Frederick was being courted by other schools? I wonder if we shouldn't have made it clear that Marbury is far and away our first choice.
Frasier, if you overanalyse every detail, you will rob us of the joy of the moment.
It will be our wedding night all over again.
Speaking of hard-to-explain bruises Yes, well, you're right.
You're right, of course.
I'm sure everything's fine.
Unless we didn't convey to him how highly we regard Marbury.
Well, see, that is my worry.
We must correct this.
What should I say? Oh, Lilith, stop! Stop! Remember what happened when the senator called? - We need We need a ruse.
LILITH: You're right.
How's this? We go back, and I say that I lost my earring in his living room.
While looking for it, we casually mention that Marbury is Frederick's first and only choice.
- Perfect.
- Let's go.
Speaking of dumb-ass ideas [DOORBELL CHIMES] Ah, yes, Dr Campbell, I hope we're not disturbing anything important.
Actually, I'm a bit frazzled trying to get my Thanksgiving dinner together.
I'm afraid I lost an earring here this morning.
Well, I'll have a look around and call you if it turns up.
- Well, um - Uh, do you think I might be able to take a peek right now? I wouldn't even think of asking, but it was a treasured gift from Golda Meir.
- Very well.
- Thank you.
Forgive me, I must turn the heat down on the pumpkin soup.
We rehearsed everything we were going to say on the ride over.
Where the hell did Golda Meir come from? I admit it wasn't half as clever as "um.
" - But it got us in.
- Mm-hmm.
- Any luck? - Not yet.
We're so sorry about this.
The whole ride over here we kept saying: "Why did this have to happen at the only school that matters to us?" Yes, as you know, Marbury is our first choice.
Oh, look, here it is.
- That was lucky.
- Remarkably so.
Considering that wasn't the chair you were sitting in.
- Um - Well, I suppose it's time we be shoving off.
I'm curious.
I've always been a great admirer of Mrs Meir.
How did you meet? Oh, well, it's a funny story.
Oh, yes.
Yeah.
Frasier, you tell it much better than I do.
Oh, yes.
Yes.
It was back in college days.
Lilith spent a summer at a kibbutz and was dating her grandson, Oscar.
That would be Oscar Meir? Yes.
Well, just imagine the ribbing he took.
Indeed.
Well, it's so good to see you both again.
Enjoy your Thanksgiving.
Marbury thanks you for your interest.
Wait.
Wait a minute.
"Marbury thanks you for your interest.
" - We know what that means.
- Oh, good.
Then you'll have no trouble interpreting this.
You had to give him gum, didn't you? Not just gum, bubble gum.
Maybe what threw him off is having to breathe through his mouth while he chewed it.
You know, Frederick, when I was a boy nothing brought a smile to my face like when Mother would make a rëmoulade and let me lick the spoon.
- Thanks, Uncle Niles.
- You're welcome.
You think maybe I should trim his bangs a little bit? Maybe you should put the scissors down while he still has one good eye.
Uh-oh.
- Is there anchovies in this? - Yes.
Oh, my God, I've never seen hives break out that fast.
[CAR DRIVES UP] - They're back! - Freddie, you got any pills for this? I got pills for everything.
Of all the names in the universe, you had to pick "Oscar.
" You started us down that path of insanity.
Golda Meir.
Golda my ass! This sniping is pointless.
Getting into Marbury was a long shot anyway.
You heard the man.
Most of these openings go to children of alumni and generous benefactors.
FRASIER: Yes, yes.
Wait a minute.
Oh, my God, we're such fools.
See what he was trying to tell us? He was trying to give us the way to get Frederick accepted.
Are you saying he was fishing for a donation? So you think he was just trying to see if we were willing to pay our fair share? What else? - Hi, Daddy.
- In a minute, Frederick.
God, it was right in front of us, and we missed it.
- We didn't even see it.
- How could we be so blind? Maybe we should get ourselves back there and give him what he wants.
Right.
We can't let anything stand in the way of our son's welfare.
- Mother.
- Mother has to run, munchkin.
Go play with Grandpa.
Ah, Dr Sternin and Dr Crane.
Forgive me if I don't give you a big hello hug, but as you can see, I'm wearing this greasy apron.
On top of which, I'm beginning to loathe the sight of both of you.
All the more reason for us to be brief.
Yes, I'm sure you'll be on your way just as soon as you've found the cufflink given to you by Haile Selassie.
No false pretence this time.
We know that with so many qualified applicants and only one position open that your decision must be very difficult.
Yes.
And so, in the spirit of the holidays, like Indians to your Pilgrims' table, we bring this little bit of garnish, as it were, in the hopes that our relationship may flower.
I'll have you know that, in 22 years, I have never accepted a bribe.
I have to tell you that I find this utterly offensive in every possible way.
Now, if you don't mind, I have guests on the way and a turkey so undercooked a skilled veterinarian could still save him.
