Niles and Daphne

A Midwinter Night's Dream

Niles: How could she like him? The man has "community college" written all over him!

Niles: Sometimes the strongest feelings come from the promise of what might happen. Just the anticipation is just enough to make all the little hairs on your neck stand on end.
Daphne: Dr Crane!
Niles: Yes, Daphne!
Daphne: We're losing the fire!
Niles: No, we're not, it's burning with the heat of a thousand suns!
Daphne: I feel very close to you.
Niles: I feel very close to you too Daphne. You know it's easy being someone you feel close to when you feel close to someone who's so close.

Daphne: Dr Crane! Your glockenspiel has sprung to life!

Niles: You're a very special person, and someday a man worthy of you will come along, just as soon as the gods create him.

Daphne: I'm so sorry to bother you, Dr. Crane, but I had an awful fight with Sherry and I can't go back there. I tried a couple of my girlfriends, but they weren't home. So, could I spend the night here?
Niles faints. He revives to find...
Daphne: Relax, Dr. Crane, I'm just unbuttoning your shirt. (He faints again)

Daphne: I can't imagine what you must be thinking. Me barging in asking to stay the night...
Niles: Well, gee, I'm just thinking so many things.

Daphne: She says I'm too rigid.
Niles: Nonsense!
Daphne: And that I'm too picky.
Niles: Poppycock!
Daphne: And that I'd be much happier if I just went out and had sex with someone.
Niles, after a pause: Just to play devil's advocate...

Daphne: I mean I have been keeping myself on the shelf lately. I'm feeling a little like the good china.
Niles: Someone should be eating off you every day.

Niles: Passion fruit?
Daphne: Thank you. You know if you keep treating me like this I'll never want to leave.
Niles: Champagne?

Daphne: Well I'm sure there are other intimacies you miss.
Niles: Well, actually I still have a longing for... I still have a desire for... er... Fruit?
Daphne: Sex!
Niles: Er, yes, sex.
Daphne: I'd love some. I mean fruit, although sex is good too.

Daphne: The two of us and just one fan. Well, of course, you're the host, you take it.
Niles: No, I couldn't sleep at all knowing you were in the next room hot and... hot.
Daphne: Well, I suppose under the circumstances we could both sleep in the same room.
Niles: It does oscillate.

Frasier: You're a doctor, why didn't you just use your prescription pad?
Niles, realizing: Oh my God!
Frasier: Isn't there an all-night pharmacy across the street from your building?
Niles: Oh my God!

Kisses Sweeter than Wine

Niles: She deserves a doctor, or a lawyer - someone for whom a T-shirt is an undergarment!

Frasier on Niles' Daphne-fantasy: I suppose it involves a comet hitting the earth and you and she having to rebuild the species! Well, trust me, Niles, it's not going to happen. She needs a man who can do more for her than smell her hair.

Niles: Your aesthetic masculine vanity and hurt feelings keep you from something other men can only dream of in their ox-blood seatus leather wing-backed chairs, with the lights off.
Joe: Look, Dr Crane, I just don't think it would work out, Okay?
Niles: No, it's not okay. If you had ever smelled her hair, you would know she is worth at least one more try. She is an angel. She is a goddess. And she's waiting for you in the bathroom.

Moon Dance

Daphne: Start with your left foot.
Niles: Which one?

Martin: You think I don't see the way you look at Daphne?
Niles: What are you implying?
Martin: You know damn well what I'm implying. Take my word for it - you're sticking a fork in a toaster.
Niles: Well, my muffin's stuck!

Niles: Just for tonight, could you call me Niles?
Daphne: When I was in school, I knew a boy named Niles, and I called him Niley.
Niles: Just for tonight, could you call me Niles?

Daphne: Take me in your arms, Niles, let the music carry us away!
Bandleader: Thank you. We'll be back in ten minutes.

Daphne: I'm on cloud nine!
Niles: I have to look down to see cloud nine!

Daphne: Did you ever see something and think, "I just have to have it!"?
(Niles just stares at Daphne, then suddenly comes to himself.)
Niles: Where's my chair?

Daphne: Our bodies must be in continuous contact, with not a sliver of daylight between us.
Niles: I can do that.

Daphne: Don't think, just feel. You're an Argentine slum dweller. You have no house, no car. You don't know where your next meal is coming from. But none of that matters, because tonight - (music flourish) - we have the Tango.
Niles: Oh mama, I've got it all!!

Daphne: Let it out, let it all out!
Niles: Oh Daphne... I ADORE YOU!! (claps hand over mouth)
Daphne: And I adore you too!
Niles: WHAT?

Daphne: I knew you were a good dancer, but I had no idea you were such a good actor!
Niles: Actor...!
(You can practically hear his heart crumple up into a little ball! Awwwww!!)

Niles: Given the right circumstances, anyone can be fooled.

Niles: I've been rehearsing this for months. Daphne, there's something we need to talk about. It's a matter of - Daphne, for a long time now I, uh, you and I - we - exactly how's the brandy getting here, by St Bernard??

Rodney: Nothing on earth smells quite so heavenly as freshly brewed coffee. Well, perhaps one thing.
Daphne: Stop that, Rodney! He loves to smell my hair!
(A dish breaks offscreen)
Frasier: Ann Boleyn?
Niles, offscreen: Catherine of Aragon!

Niles: The truth is, my heart was never really in that relationship.
Daphne: I thought it might not be.
Niles: There was someone else who was too much on my mind.
Daphne: I had a feeling, Dr Crane.
Niles: You did?
Daphne: Yes, as long as you still have feelings for your wife, you know you can't be involved with anyone else. And it makes sense to me. I know I'd never get involved with a man who was separated.
Niles: Even if he'd worshipped you from the day he laid eyes on you?
Daphne: And don't think that's not just how they'd put it too!

Niles: I would have said, "Is this seat taken?" and you would have said "No." You would have said, "My name is Daphne." I would have said, "My name is Niles." And then I would have said, "What are you doing for the rest of your life?"
Daphne: You always know the right thing to say. Oh, I love you Dr Crane.
Niles: And I love you too, Daphne.

Daphne: As if anyone's going to smell my hair!

Niles: It's something I've been wanting to tell you for the longest time.
Daphne: What took you so long? I think it's wonderful!
Niles: ... you do??
Daphne: Yes, of course I do! You dear sweet man, give me a hug! So, who is she?

Niles: Her name just happens to be ... DaPhyllis!
Daphne: Oh. I've never heard that name, DaPhyllis.

Niles: She's very beautiful. And very sweet. And she has a smile that makes my knees weaken. (Daphne smiles at him and Niles's knees obviously turn to jelly.

Niles: No, you don't understand. I don't have to leave this room to ask "Phyllis" on a date.
Daphne: You don't?
Niles: No, because... because you see, Daphne... I know her work number by heart!

Daphne: Honestly, Dr Crane, sometimes I wonder what kind of a fantasy world you're living in. Now go on! (She slaps his behind and he grins foolishly.)

Daphne: Oh, I'm very excited for you. I just love first dates.
Niles: I don't see why. They're always so awkward.
Daphne: Yeah, but once in a while, when the chemistry's just right, they can be magical. The "me, too's" as you realise all you have in common, the electricity of that first accidental touch... Soon, you're letting your guard down and saying the silliest things.
(Their hands brush as they both reach for the paper towels.
Niles: Oh, sorry. Now we have to get married.

Niles: You hear that? We're chopping in rhythm.
Daphne: We are, aren't we. (She begins to sing) Doomda doomda doomda doomda...
Niles: Heart and soul, I fell in love with you heart and soul, the way a fool would do.
Daphne: Maaadly!
Both: Because you held me tight! And stole a kiss in the night...
(The doorbell rings)
Niles: Oh damn, who could that be?
Daphne, excited: It's Phyllis!! (Niles looks confused) Well go on, go and let her in!
Niles, going to answer the door, still singing: Go away, whoever's at the door, go away, and don't come back no more!

Daphne: You know, I know it seems hopeless right now, but I have a feeling that before very long you'll be sitting down to a nice romantic dinner with the woman of your dreams.
Niles: I think you may just be right. Shall we?

Frasier: You should have seen him last night. He spent the entire evening sitting on Daphne's lap watching tv.
Niles, looking like he's thinking, I've never gotten to do that!: Really.
Daphne: And this morning I heard this soft little knock at me door and it was Frederick asking if he could climb into bed with me.
Niles: Really.
The Unnatural

Frasier: Niles, have you actually sunk so low as to be jealous of him?
Niles: No, I'm not jealous, just ... a bit, well, maybe envious.
Martin: That's ridiculous. What have you got to be envious of?
Daphne, offscreen: Hold on! (runs in giving Freddy a piggyback ride)
Freddy: Wheeeeeeeee!
The Unnatural

Daphne: I think the ferris wheel scared him a bit. He spent the whole ride hugging me for dear life.
Niles: Really.
Freddy: Her hair smells like strawberries.
Niles: No it doesn't, it smells like peach blossoms, lavender and vanilla. ... From over here, at least.
The Unnatural

Niles: I'll be there, sitting right between you and Daphne.
The Unnatural

Niles: You can fool them, but you can't fool me. I'm on to you, little man.
The Unnatural

Niles to Daphne: If you really want Frederick to enjoy himself he especially likes you in that little blue cocktail dress.
Good Samaritan

Niles: I know you've always had special feelings for Daphne, and there's something I need to tell you.
Freddy: I already know about you guys.
Niles: Oh. Uh, and you're okay with that?
Freddy: I liked her when I was a little kid. I'm over it now. I mean, she's, like, a hundred!

Daphne: Freddy's been quite the little helper. Every time I bend over to check the turkey, there he is.
The Apparent Trap

Niles: Hello Daphne, so good to see you again. That's an enchanting scent you're wearing!
Daphne, sniffing: It must be the ranch dressing.
I Hate Frasier Crane

Frasier to Eddie: Will you stop staring!
Niles, who had been gazing at Daphne: I wasn't staring!!
I Hate Frasier Crane

Niles: You never know when love can bloom between two people who seem so different on the surface. Do you, Daphne?
Daphne: To tell you the truth, I never thought opposites attract.
Niles: Neither do I, we are alike in so many ways.
Here's Looking at You

Daphne: Dr. Crane, were you sniffing my hair?
Niles: Why would I do a thing like that? I'm a happily married man, I love my Maris.
Guest: Where should I put this coat?
Niles: Just throw it on the bed.
The Crucible (Niles had mentioned that Maris was asleep under the pile of coats!)

Daphne: I suppose I like my gents more on the manly side. (Watching Niles fold a napkin) Was that a little swan you made?
Niles, crushing the napkin: No, it was a B-52.
Death Becomes Him

Daphne: We women have been poked and prodded my male doctors for centuries. I say it's high time you gents went to see a doctor of the opposite sex. See how you like waiting in that room, sitting there all naked and helpless and goosebumpy.
Frasier: Niles, surely you could recommend someone? Niles!
Niles: I'm sorry, my mind was somewhere else.
Death Becomes Him

Daphne: It won't be so bad. Well, unless you have to parade around the office in one of those gown where your little bum peeks through the back.
Frasier: So Niles, what's Dr Newman's number? Niles. Niles?
Niles: I'm sorry, I must have drifted off again.
Death Becomes Him

(Niles makes Daphne try on a dress.)
Daphne: Shall I put the red one back on so you can make a choice?
Frasier: No, I think Niles has all the information he needs.
Niles, guiltily: You know, Maris and Daphne are roughly the same size.
Frasier: Give or take a foot.
Miracle on Third or Fourth Street

Daphne, as she gives the dresses back to Niles: Ooh, I'm glad to be out of that black one. I had to take me undies off just to get the zipper up. (Niles drops his glass.)
Miracle on Third or Fourth Street

Daphne, stroking Niles' hair: Dr Crane, can you get up?
Niles: No, no - I think I'd better stay here for a few minutes.
Guess Who's coming to Breakfast

Daphne: I have everything in hand.
Niles: Lucky everything.
Can't Buy me Love

Niles: Excuse me. Has a young woman been in here this evening approximately five foot nine and three quarters, with skin the colour of Devonshire cream and the sort of eyes that gaze directly into one's soul with neither aricifice or evasion?
You can't tell a Crook by his Cover

Daphne: I learned a long time ago there are three questions you never answer honestly: 'How old do I look?', 'Do you like me hair?', and 'Was it good for you too?' Are you coming, Dr Crane? Dr Crane?
Niles: I'm sorry, I was someplace else. (to Frasier) It was a warm and friendly place.
Fortysomething

Frasier: Niles! What are you doing?!
Niles, pointing a camcorder at sleeping Daphne: I'm making a vacation video, something that we can look at years from now, over and over and over and over again...
Travels with Martin

Daphne: Yesterday, when I insisted he do his excercises, he told me to put my feet behind my head and spin like a top.
Frasier: Oh well, best thing to do is just ignore him when he gets sarcastic. Isn't that right Niles? Niles?
Niles: I'm sorry, Frasier, for some reason I feel a little dizzy.
My Coffee with Niles

Niles: Here, take my bumbershoot.
Daphne: Oh, isn't that nice. Well, at least someone appreciates my mother tongue.
Niles: Yes, I've always had an ear for your tongue.
My Coffee with Niles

Niles: Why did you have to hire Venus herself?
My Coffee with Niles

Niles: Ah! Doing your excercises, I see?
Daphne: Yes and if someone doesn't let us get on with them he's gonna get a little spank on his fanny.
(Niles obviously thinks that she means him...)
Slow Tango in South Seattle

Niles: No, no, sit, Daphne. After all that cooking, you must be absolutely strapless.
The Matchmaker

Niles, smelling Daphne's perfume: Is that "Forbidden"?
Frasier: In every sense of the word.
Duke's, We Hardly Knew Ya

Daphne, showing Niles how to blow smoke rings: Just purse your lips and pucker up like a little goldfish. That's right.
Frasier, entering: Niles, what are you doing?
Niles: I'm learning to blow smoke.
Frasier: Where?
Adventures in Paradise

Niles: If you ask me, Frasier, your trepidation is well-founded. It is possible to move a relationship along too fast, and ultimately marry too hastily. You could find a few years down the line that the person isn't really right for you. And then what happens (looking at Daphne) if you meet the right person? Someone who really excites you and who makes you feel alive? But you can't act upon it, because you're trapped in a stale albeit comfortable Maris! Marriage. I have to go now.
Adventures in Paradise

Niles, staring at Daphne: Women over 40 can't help but feel unattractive when they don't have perfect hair, porcelain skin, limpid eyes, pouting lips, the voluptuous contours of a goddess... I'm sorry, I've forgotten what my point was.
Burying A Grudge

Niles: Frasier, how could you? No matter how irristable the urge to venture down that hallway, to press your face against that door, to actually feel the grain of the wood against your cheek. It must be fought!
Daphne's Room

Niles: It wasn't as bad as all that. It's not like you saw her naked or something. (No answer from Frasier) YOU DID!!
Daphne's Room

Niles: Frasier I want to help you with this, so you have to tell me everything, every sight, every sound, unburden yourself before you explode!
Frasier: No!
Niles, getting out a pencil and paper: All right, I'll show you how I've always imagined her and you tell me where I'm wrong.
Daphne's Room

Niles, demonstrating word-association: Crescent. Moon. Daphne Moon. French maid. Brass Bed. Satin room.
Frasier: This is my dream.
Niles: I was just showing you the process.
Frasier: You were three words away from a cigarette.
The Impossible Dream

Daphne: And you don't know who it will be. You could be standing next to a person month after month, and then the next thing you know you're tearing each other's clothes off. There's a word for it.
Niles, who stared at her through the whole speech: Hope.
Sleeping with the Enemy

Niles: Oh, pish tosh! It's painfully obvious what's attracting you - the gleam of her jackboots, her dangling nightstick, the glint of her handcuffs hanging on her leather belt. You're off on some lurid little disciplinary fantasy.
Daphne: Oh, Dr. Crane, shame on you! You got icing up and down your sleeve!
Niles: Oh. I am a naughty boy.
Daphne: Certainly a messy one.
Niles: But mainly a naughty one.
Police Story

Daphne: Oh, I know what you're going through living with a noisy neighbour. Have I ever mentioned that couple that lived next door to me in London? A married couple who made the most ungodly racket in bed. The walls must have been like tissue paper, because I'd hear the who performance every night. Finally I decided the only way to get them to stop was to let them hear what I'd been hearing. So, one night I moved near the wall. And I started. Oh... oh yes, oooh, don't stop, that's the spot - oh, do it again! Oh, you are the sex master. Oh, for hell's sake, just take me, you devil spawned sex monkey. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!! (Suddenly she stops.) Problem solved!
Niles: I'm sorry, Daphne, I drifted. Would you tell that story again?
(Back in the "present") Frasier: Hold it, stop! Niles, you know full well that Daphne merely told us that story. She did not act it out!
Niles: Didn't she?

Daphne: Would you like me to butter your buns for you, Dr Crane?
Look Before you Leap

Daphne: For weeks now some lout has been removing my wet clothes from the washer and leaving them on the table in a soggy mess. This morning I decided to get my revenge, so I took off my new red panties and I popped 'em in with his whites!
Niles: Bravo Daphne! Good for you, God I wish I'd been there.
High Crane Drifter

Daphne: Perhaps all you need is a little company at the apartment. Something warm and friendly to come home to.
Niles: Well, I'm sure Dad would miss you.
Daphne: Oh Dr Crane!
Niles: Oh me!
Chess Pains

(Niles and Daphne fight, then make up)
Frasier: Niles, what was that all about?
Niles: I'm not sure, but oh, MOMMA, it was glorious! Blood pounding, sarcastic zingers flying!
Frasier: Are you saying you enjoyed fighting with Daphne?
Niles: Every exhilerating moment was pure unbridled passion! I think I still have some of her spittle on my forehead! Oh why did Dad ever tell us not to fight with girls? It's wonderful!
The Focus Group

Daphne: I didn't mean to put you in an awkward position.
Niles: When it comes to you, no position is too awkward.
The Two Mrs Cranes

Niles: You have to pay the love toll! (Daphne kisses him) Oh, too much, here's your change!(Kisses her back)
Niles and Daphne pretend to be married, The Two Mrs Cranes

Daphne, about to give Niles a massage: I haven't even touched you yet!
Niles: I started without you!
Liar, Liar!

Niles: Frost me like a cake!
Liar, Liar!

Daphne, getting Niles to do up her zipper: Don't be afraid to grab hold and give it all you've got.
Niles: Okay.
Odd Man Out

Niles: Oh dear. I've zipped my tie into your dress.
Odd Man Out

Frasier: Niles, there's something on your tie.
Odd Man Out

Daphne: I was just about to step right out of this dress and embarrass poor Dr Crane to death.
Niles:Well, we all have to die of something.
Odd Man Out

Niles: You have a real flare for accents. Just out of curiosity, have you ever tried a saucy French chamber maid?
Three Dates and a Break-Up

Frasier: Daphne, you may answer the door.
Daphne: Well, thank you! Why don't I just get a feather duster and a French maid's uniform?
Niles: That would teach them, wouldn't it, Daphne, and I would pick it out for you!
The Kid

Daphne: Dr. Crane, I could kiss you!
Niles: Okay. (lets her)
Roz and the Schnoz

Daphne: I always thought it would be kind of romantic to have a secret admirer, someone who longed for me that much. But I do see your point, Dr Crane - it is kind of sick.
Beware of Greeks

Niles: What kind of a weak-willed man allows a woman to come between him and a 1981 Cheval Blank?
Daphne: Just out of curiosity, why didn't you go by yourself instead of sitting with me for half an hour?
Niles, after a pause: I was worried about him, Daphne, worried sick. (She turns away and he smells her hair)
Frasier Gotta Have it

Daphne: Here we are, got them out of the oven just in time. Another minute and I'd have had burnt buns.
Niles: Which brings us back to your story...
Frasier Gotta Have it

Daphne: You left me handcuffed & helpless!
Niles: If you should ever find yourself in that position again, be sure to call on me! ... For help.
Sweet Dreams

Daphne: Where's my jar of Bovril?
Niles: No I wasn't!
How to Bury a Millionaire

Daphne: Dr Crane, can I ask a favour? What are you doing for the next ten nights? Because my--
Niles: Yes.
Merry Christmas, Mrs Moskowitz

Niles: Tomorrow everyone will know, including Daphne. And this is how she's going to find out. I wanted to whisper it to her over a candlelight dinner, not have it read back to her by a court stenographer.
To Tell the Truth

Donny, smelling Daphne's hair: That scent is wonderful, what is it?
Niles, turning away, quietly to himself: Cherry bark and almonds.
To Tell the Truth

Niles: It's going to do me a world of good to get away from Daphne.
Frasier: Yes, I couldn't agree more.
(Frasier exits, Daphne enters)
Niles: Hey Daphne, howdja like to see my new lakefront cottage?

Daphne: I really appreciate the invitation and I hope you'll invite me again.
Niles: All right. Daphne, how'd you like to see my new lakefront cottage?
Decoys

Roz: Why don't you just admit it, you're just doing this because you want Daphne.
Niles: Yes! Yes! I want Daphne, I think we belong together, just like I think you and Donny belong together, and why should two people be happy when four people can be ecstatic??!
Decoys

Niles: ... the way Donny was feeding her forkfuls of risotto as if she'd lost her arms instead of her mind what is she doing with him??
Taps at the Montana

Daphne: You should have come over and joined us.
Niles: Well, you looked like you had enough to contend with, what with your table's fork shortage.
Taps at the Montana

Daphne: I'm chatting online with Donny. What's he saying?
Niles, reading from computer screen: "I can't wait to come home and see my wittle Engwish cwumpet." Apparently he has some sort of typing impediment.
Daphne: I don't want him to think I've abandoned him, will you take over for me?
Niles, hesitantly: All right.
Daphne: Tell him I miss him too... and I'm counting the days til he comes home... and there's no one I love more than my fuzzy-wuzzy...
Computer: Goodbye.
Niles: I'm sorry, I seem to have lost him.
IQ

Daphne to Frasier: And then maybe after that I could draw a bath, strip you naked and scrub you with a loofah. Would that be all right, Dr Crane?
Niles: Yes.
Daphne to Niles: I didn't even see you standing there.
Martin: Hey Niles, can I talk to you about something?
Niles: Yeah, just one second dad. (Dreams for a moment.) Okay.
Good Grief

Niles: It's as if that panhandler I gave money to was a genie granting all my wishes.
Daphne, entering in a skimpy dress: Would you marry me in this??
Frasier: How much did you give him?
A Tsar is Born

Niles: Whisk. Spoon. Cheese cloth. (Daphne mops his forehead. The timer goes.) Perfect timing. Daphne, open the oven. Ah. Ready.
Daphne: Shall I close, Dr Crane?
Niles: Please.
Daphne: Do you think it'll be all right?
Niles: It's out of our hands now Daphne.
Big Crane on Campus

Daphne: Are you sure you won't laugh at me?
Niles: How could you possibly think I'd laugh at you?
Daphne: Well, most people would if I told them I'd seen the love of my life in a psychic vision.
Niles: Well, most people aren't - what?

Daphne: He asked if anyone had a reason why we shouldn't wed, and that was when this - this person stood up and said that he did. He said that he was the true love of my life, though he'd never have the courage to say so. I feel so awkward telling you all this.
Niles: Don't. I think I know who this person is.
Daphne: You do?
Niles: Yes!
Daphne: I don't see how you could. I couldn't tell meself. He was standing in the shadows and I couldn't see his face. All I could make out was that he was wearing a red bow tie.
Niles: I don't have a - clue why anyone would wear such a thing to a wedding.

Daphne: I don't know how I'm going to break it off with him.
Niles: Do you want to write a letter? I have stationary and a fax machine.

Niles, wearing a red bow tie: I admit it's a departure for me, but I'm feeling a bit kicky today!

Daphne: Funny thing about Orangina. I never buy Orangina at all. But whenever I'm in a hotel and there's a mini-bar, it's the first thing I go for. Orangina.

Daphne: Dr Crane, you shouldn't say such things.
Niles: It's the truth. Lord knows, I have tried to deny it - tried to pretend that I'm over you - but not a day has gone by when I haven't thought of you. Your smile, your beautiful eyes, what it would be like to hold your hands and ask you the question I never dared ask...
Donny, bursting in: What's the difference between a blister and a boil?

Daphne: Don't the doors in this bloody place lock??

Simon: You're not having a last call of your own in here, are you?
Daphne: Of course not!
Simon: Riiiiiight. This isn't the chap whose baby you're having, is it?

Niles: I must be in love. It doesn't even bother me that you come with them.

Niles: Lovely night, isn't it? Stars are out, nice breeze... mmm, night-blooming jasmine. Of course, there's the beautiful girl.
Daphne: Dr Crane, I still haven't answered your question.
Niles: Yes, I know, that's why I keep talking. In case I don't get the answer I want, I can at least make this moment last a little longer. I'm not sure if it's jasmine or orange blossom. You know, a lot of times...
Daphne, interrupting: Oh, for God's sake, Dr Crane!!
...
Niles: I think you can call me Niles now.

Martin: Lots of people cry at weddings.
Niles: Yes, but not so many people wind up wailing and rending their garments.

Daphne: I was wondering if you might be free for a date.
Niles: Oh my God, yes! (Hugs her)
Daphne: There's plenty of time for that later. Let's get this bloody boat moving!
Niles: What - you mean now?
Daphne: There's about a hundred people back there I'm not so keen on seeing!
Niles: All right, let's go then! Fasten your seatbelt, Daphne.
Daphne, with a big smile: Fasten yours, Niles.
