Harriet Sansom Harris credited as playing...
Bebe Glazer
- [the station has hired a tough negotiator, "The Hammer" to renegotiate everyone's contract. Gil's salary has been slashed, but Bebe comes in with Roz, cheering]
- Gil Chesterson: How on earth did you get all that?
- Bebe: Oh, we go way back, the Hammer and I. I know where the bodies are buried.
- [pause]
- Bebe: Usually, that's just a metaphor...
- Bebe: You wanna see a carcass, chum?
- [grabs Frasier and faces him toward mirror]
- Bebe: Look in the mirror. Look what you've let that man do to you. Your face is riddled with bird bites, your name's a punchline, and your career is five minutes from over, and he's only been your agent for three days! Send him in against the Hammer and you'll be doing fog reports from a lighthouse in Puget Sound!
- Frasier: [about to sign with Bebe] Once you've worked out this thing with the Hammer, maybe you can see what you can do about defusing this bird situation.
- Ben: Oh, you don't have to worry about the crane anymore. The poor thing choked to death this morning. They have no idea who would feed a bird a jawbreaker. Bye, now.
- Frasier: [Frasier turns slowly to Bebe, hopefully and fearfully at once] Bebe, is there any chance it wasn't you?
- Bebe: Oh, darling...
- [looks around, trying to come up with an answer he'll be satisfied with]
- Bebe: There's always a chance.
- Frasier: [ponders] I can live with that.
