- [Martin is setting Frasier up with Duke's daughter Marie]
- Martin: Duke said she's grown into a real looker.
- Frasier: Yes, well I have seen Duke, and unless he sired a love child with Catherine Deneuve, I don't like my odds.
- [Marie comes in]
- Marie: Uncle Martin.
- Martin: Oh, Marie! Look at you! You remember Frasier.
- Frasier: Bonjour.
- Frasier: Niles, Marie is a stunning woman with a body to die for. You think all I'm interested in is her mind? How shallow do you think I am?
- [on Frasier's caramelizing torch]
- Martin: Yeah, I was pretty proud the first time he brought that blow-torch home. 'Til I saw what it was for.
- Frasier: You know, maybe there's still time to win her back.
- Martin: Well, it'd take a pretty big bouquet of flowers to do that.
- Frasier: I don't know, Dad. Maybe if I just explain to her what really happened, she'll forgive me. Sometimes the best apology is just the truth.
- Niles: You mean you're going to tell her you thought she was prostituting herself for therapy but now you've decided that's OK?
- Frasier: ...Well, not that truth. Some other truth.
- Frasier: Yes, well, I've *seen* Duke, and unless he sired a love child with Catherine Deneuve, I don't like my odds.
