The Ring Cycle [10.1]

 * Gertrude: Well, in my day people didn't drive so recklessly. Do you know why?
 * Alice: Is it because you rode dinosaurs?
 * Gertrude: [to Roz] You should talk to your daughter. [exits]
 * Roz: [to Alice] When we get home, you're getting ice cream.


 * [Frasier attempts to reassure Daphne's mother that a civil ceremony does not mean a Godless union]
 * Frasier: For if you truly believe in the omniscience and omnipresence of the Lord, then surely are we not always in His presence?
 * Gertrude: No, He lives at the church!

Enemy at the Gate [10.2]

 * [Niles and Daphne have named their pet lovebirds after themselves]
 * Niles: This morning, when Daphne escaped, I just kept thinking, "What if she's hurt, or lost, or eaten by a cat?" Or worse: "What if she meets another bird who's more birdly than Niles but without the substance?"
 * Frasier: Trust me: no one is more birdly than Niles.


 * [An angry driver waiting behind Frasier's car claims that only rich people can afford to behave the way he is doing]
 * Frasier: My income, and the style of car which I drive, are irrelevant! Isn't that so, Niles?
 * Niles: Yes. [to the driver] I drive a Mercedes, and I would have paid ten minutes ago.

 Describing his parking experience while all others believe he is referring to sleeping with Roz:
 * Frasier: Well, it certainly wasn't my finest hour. I got in, realized I made a mistake and then tried like hell to get out. There was a lot of shouting and then a line started to form behind me. You'd be surprised how long 20 minutes can be when you're watching the clock. Fortunately, my brother was there to serve as moral support, and, let's face it, someone to talk to. At least, in the end, I got out of there without paying the four dollars!

Proxy, Prexy [10.3]

 * Frasier is not keen for Martin to take presidential decisions without consulting him
 * Frasier: We need to reach a little understanding. Now, someone asks you a question, you look at me. If I scratch my nose, it means No. You get it? They both begin with the same two letters: N-O. Now, if I touch my eye, it means Aye as in...Yes.
 * Martin: [annoyed] Guess what you're being if I touch my ass.

Kissing Cousin [10.4]

 * Frasier: (about Roz's cousin) She told me that my show was bourgeois. I then argued that anything that has mass appeal could be called bourgeois. She then said that my argument was bourgeois...which I happened to find jejune.




 * Niles has arrived at Frasier's apartment to find his wife doing housework for his brother and father
 * Niles: Are you proud of yourselves?
 * Frasier: We didn't ask her to do anything!
 * Martin: She offered!
 * Niles: Then why is no one looking me in the eye?

Tales from the Crypt [10.5]

 * [Frasier, the victim of Bulldog's latest prank, denies having been fooled, then hears a tape of himself]
 * Frasier: [wailing] My car! Oh no, my caaaar! What did they do to you?! Oh, my baby...!


 * [Martin complains that Frasier makes practical jokes seem like work]
 * Martin: This is supposed to be fun! Like a day at the beach! Oh, you do this kind of thing all the time.
 * Frasier: Like when?
 * Martin: Like the last time we went to the beach!




 * [Jason’s parents call round to Niles's apartment to sort things out]
 * Beverly White: It seems our children have been feuding. We're very embarrassed.
 * Niles: You're embarrassed? Meet our daughter. [gestures to Gertrude]

Star Mitzvah [10.6]

 * Noel: The Seattle Star Trek Convention is this weekend, and all the Enterprise captains are making an appearance. I need Scott Bakula's autograph to make my collection complete.
 * Frasier: Noel, isn't this something you could do yourself?
 * Noel: Oh, I would! But William Shatner's restraining order against me is still in effect. It's so stupid! It wasn't even a real phaser.


 * Frasier: Star Trek is just a TV show.
 * Noel: So was Brideshead Revisited!
 * Frasier: You're angry, so I'm going to ignore that!

Bristle While You Work [10.7]

 * [Frasier has just finished interviewing another candidate and is walking her to the door]
 * Frasier: Of course, we have several other candidates to interview, but I'll be sure to let you know by the twelfth... [closes the door] of never!


 * [Martin is encouraged to hear that Trish is a fan of the Sonics]
 * Trish: I should have guessed everyone and his brother would want to see Vince Carter play.
 * Martin: Not everybody. Or his brother.


 * Martin: Sure, sure. And there'll be a check in the mail sometime after the first... [closes the door] asteroid hits Earth!

Room with a View (10.8)

 * Frasier is arguing with the surgeon about Niles's operation
 * Dr. Schaeffer: Look, in my expert opinion, I'm doing what's best for this patient.
 * Frasier: And my expert opinion says otherwise.
 * Dr. Schaeffer: [calm, but annoyed] Well, if you're such an expert, maybe you should perform the surgery.
 * Frasier: Maybe I will.
 * Niles: [whining] Dad...
 * Martin: [sternly] Frasier, you're not operating on your brother.


 * Frasier: According to my timetable, Niles is probably off the bypass pump now. All the blockages have been bypassed and the myocardium is now receiving normal blood.
 * Martin: How come you know all this but you're stumped by an electric barbecue fork?
 * Frasier: Because the human body was not designed by some idiot in Japan.

We Two Kings [10.10]

 * [Roz encourages Frasier to air his grievances about Christmas]
 * Roz: Come on, Frasier, talk to me. Use your words.
 * Frasier: It's just so egregious!

 * Frasier: Excuse me, Niles, but I’ve got news for you: Copernicus called, and you are not the center of the universe!

 * Niles: It's beautiful, it's beautiful!
 * Frasier: Yes! This is where we belong!

Lilith Needs a Favor [10.13]

 * Albert: My ex-wife used to say she could tell when I was nervous because I'd turn off white.
 * Lilith: I can empathize. After a long night, I once had to color my under-eye circles with Liquid Paper.

 * Lilith: I was thinking we could freeze your sperm.
 * Frasier: Is that a "yes" or "no"?

 * Martin: Well, I'm proud of you two. Squash may not be the toughest sport, but it's still technically a sport.
 * Chelsea: What? Squash can be pretty tough! (Martin scoffs) Oh, no, no, no, no. I once saw a guy break his leg in a mid-court collision. The bone was poking through his skin, and he still finished the point.
 * Martin: (surprised) That's the game you guys play?
 * Niles: (fighting nausea) Hell, yeah!


 * Frasier: (reading a note in Chelsea's office) Please excuse my daughter Ruby from P.E. She has a... "delibitating" disease. Nice try, Ruby.

Fathers and Sons [10.22]

 * [Niles and Daphne are discussing names for a baby]
 * Niles: How about Desmond?
 * Daphne: Hmm. "Desmond Crane, you are hereby sentenced to..." No, I don't like it. What about Jack?
 * Niles: 'Fraid not. The first name ends with the same sound that begins the last name, so you either end up running them together — Jackrane — or you face the dreaded glottal stop. Jack—Crane. Jack—Crane. It's unpleasant for the throat.
 * Daphne: This conversation’s unpleasant for the throat.

 * Martin has gone to the shooting range with Niles
 * Frasier: He asked me to take him, but then I suggested that, when it comes to guns, perhaps he would prefer someone of...(pause for effect) Niles's calibre. (chuckles to himself) I'm in rare form today.
 * Daphne: (smiles, unamused) You should see this place when they know you're not coming.

A New Position for Roz [10.24]

 * [Worn out by Alice's energetic games, Niles and Daphne place her in front of the TV.]

 * Gil: Of course I, too, noticed Roz's sex appeal immediately. She had the same effect on all of us stallions in the KACL corral. [with obvious fervor] She made us want to paw the ground and rise up on our powerful haunches, fetlocks glistening. Smokey, Misty, Storm, away! ''[Gil downs his glass of wine in one long swig.]
