  • Daphne: [rehearsing for a radio play] Sound of door opening.
  • Roz: [with a mouthful of food] Infpactar, fhank goddies oo cam.
  • Frasier: Stop the watch. Roz, I have a line here that says, "When she opened her lips I caught a hint of some mixed exotic accent." You will notice it does not say, "When she opened her lips cheese fell out".
  • Frasier: Did you see anything suspicious, Wing?
  • Bulldog Briscoe: Oh, me no looky. Me go beddy bye chop chop.
  • Roz: Stop! Chinese embassy on line 1. You can't say that.
  • Frasier: [finishing his broadcast] Well, that's our show for today, but let me remind you to tune in on Saturday night for KACL's presentation of "Nightmare Inn". Just set your dials for goosebumps. Till then, this is Dr. Frasier Crane reminding you that you never know what's lurking in the shadows.
  • [laughs diabolically, goes off-air]
  • Roz: Well, that should certainly comfort the woman who called in about her paranoia.
  • Dr. Niles Crane: [as the German butler, Hans] All right, all right, it's true! I'm not what I appear! None of us is! I'm not a butler; I'm not even...
  • [in normal voice]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: ... German.
  • Dr. Niles Crane: Sit down, Inspector, you're about to hear a fascinating tale. Each of us holds a piece of the puzzle to relate to you.
  • [Frasier is directing Niles, to Niles' dismay]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: When we're finished, you'll know the full, dark tale.
  • Roz: [In an odd voice] Are you sure we should, Hans?
  • Dr. Niles Crane: Be quiet, Mother!
  • [Frasier cues organ music and continues directing Niles]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: Mother and I moved here after the tragic death of my father.
  • [Angrily]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: I kept the pain of that loss buried deep within me like a... serpent... coiled within a... dark... cave.
  • [Fed up with Frasier]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: Okay, that's it. Never mind all that. I'm just going to take this gun off the table.
  • [Fake gunshot]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: So long, O'Toole; I guess we'll never get to hear your fascinating piece of the puzzle.
  • [Two fake gunshots]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: Or yours, Kraegan and *Peppo!* Could the McCallister sisters stand back to back, I'm short on bullets?
  • [Fake gunshot]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: Thank you.
  • [to Roz]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: What was your name again, dear?
  • Roz: Ms. Thorndyke...
  • Dr. Niles Crane: [Fake gunshot] Thank you. Oh, and also Mr. Wing
  • [Fake gunshot, and sound of muted bell on Mr. Wing's hat]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: . And, of course, one final bullet for myself, so the mystery will die with me
  • [Fake gunshot]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: .
  • Dr. Niles Crane: [Weakly] Ha.
  • Dr. Niles Crane: [as the German butler, Hans] All right, all right, it's true! I'm not what I appear! None of us is! I'm not a butler; I'm not even...

  • [Frasier cues organ music and continues directing Niles]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: Mother and I moved here after the tragic death of my father.
  • [as Frasier directs, Niles gets more and more frustrated]
  • Dr. Niles Crane: I kept the pain of that loss buried deep within me like a... serpent... coiled within a... dark... cave. Okay, that's it! Never mind all that. I'm just going to take this gun off the table.
