Now, don't let me interrupt you. You seemed kind of deep in thought.
I suppose I was.
It's been a rather eventful three weeks for me.
Well, then, uh, good luck in Chicago.
Dad, Niles and I have been wondering what to get you for your wedding,
and maybe we could just give you the wedding.
- What are you looking for? - The ring. I dropped it
- when that cannon was fired... - It's in the pâté! Eddie, no!
Okay, here are your pills. Twice a day.
And you feel better, Mr. Kitty Cat.
- Who's next? - I am.
Oh, gosh.
Actually, we have an emergency here.
Our dog swallowed a ring and it's holding up a wedding.
Go ahead, I can wait.
- Thank you so much. - Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Huh. Boy, no easy cases today. - Yeah.
Talk about hitting the ground running.
- Is this your first day? - Yup. I'm not in Kansas anymore.
Where did you go to vet school?
Kansas.
All right, here we go. Now, if you hold his mouth open for me,
I'll see if I can get his paw down his throat. I'm just... I'm just kidding.
Why don't I take your pooch to the other room and I'll be right back?
- Okay. - Excuse me. Thank you.
All right, buddy.
- Oh, sorry. - Thank you.
Thank you.
He has no idea what he's doing.
- He's just new at this. He's nervous. - Ha.
I've been a bit nervous myself lately, ever since my brothers showed up.
Really? Why?
Well, the way they keep patting my stomach and saying:
- "He's a Moon, all right." - Oh, my God, yes.
And every time they say that, all I can think is, what if he's not?
What if he's like you and Frasier?
Excuse me?
Oh, a Moon boy I know how to handle.
But what if he's a little genius,
teasing me in French by the time he's 6?
Oh, that is funny. I've worried he's gonna turn out like your brothers.
I was sure when he kicked that speaker off your belly
- that you had a little Simon in there. - Ha, ha.
They are a handful, my brothers.
I can imagine the hell they're raising back there.
Oh, yeah. With an open bar?
Oh, my God, my water just broke. The baby's coming.
Because I said "open bar"?
Oh. Okay, fine. Don't panic. There's time to get you to a hospital.
The hell there is. He's coming now.
- Here's your ring. - Uh, uh, uh...
Here, call an ambulance. My wife's having a baby.
There's no time for an ambulance.
- Oh, my God. - Oh, my God. Uh...
You know what? Why don't you call 911
and I'll just get started here? Oh, wait, wait, wait.
I'm gonna wash my hands.
Are you sure you know what you're doing?
I've assisted in deliveries, ma'am.
In fact, one took blue ribbon at the Kansas State Fair.
- Oh, my God. - Easy now. You're doing great, girl.
Don't call me that. I'm not a bloody poodle.
- Unh. - Yes, hello, hello.
We're at... We're at 1206 East Village Road.
- My wife's gone into labour. - Unh.
They say the hospital is 20 miles away.
- Can you make it if I drive? - Aah!
- Aah. Unh. - She says no.
- All right. They're on their way. - Unh.
On their way. Now, calm down. Focus and breathe. Breathe.
Oh! Oh!
Oh, for God's sakes. Unh! Oh.
Is everything okay in here?
- We're fine. - Okay.
If you need any help, I'm a registered nurse.
- Oh, get the hell back in here! - Easy, girl.
Stop that!
- Isn't he perfect, Dad? Mm. - Mm.
He certainly is, Mom.
Got your eyes and my chin.
- He's got my hair. - You think so?
No, he's got my hair.
Let go, dear.
If you can part with him for just two seconds,
I should finish cleaning him up.
Of course.
Uh, we can't thank you two enough.
Oh, please.
Really, if there's ever anything that we can do for you.
You can do me one quick favour.
My Jason is kind of overdue for his lunch.
- Oh. Of course. - Ha, ha.
Hello?
- Niles? - Boy, some day, huh?
Getting married and meeting my grandson all in the same afternoon.
Hey, you guys, you're just in time. Come on in.
Don't stare.
You were no prize at that age either.
- Oh, look who's here. - Ha, ha.
- Hello. - Here we go.
- Oh, my God, he's beautiful. - Yeah.
That twin's gonna be jealous his whole life.
The ambulance should be here any minute. I think I'm gonna go.
- All right. Thank you again. - Thanks.
Uh, sure you don't want me to check your monkey?
Yeah, I'm sure.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Hey, there, you.
I'm the one who's gonna spoil you rotten.
You're so sweet to come down.
But what about your wedding? Those people?
Oh, they'll keep.
Yeah, as long as there's an open bar.
Oh, settle down there.
Oh, uh, I guess that's our ride.
So sorry we're gonna miss your wedding.
Oh, so are we.
I feel like it's my own dad getting married.
Oh, yeah, it's not gonna be the same without you guys up there.
I don't wanna forget the rings.
Hey, wait a minute.
Why don't we just get married here?
I mean, we've got the rings and the preacher.
- Well, what about all the guests? - We can do it again for them later.
And at least this place only smells like a monkey.
Well, I'm game.
Get cracking, Fras.
You know, I'd better, uh, condense this just a bit. Uh...
No, I don't need that. And I don't need that. All right. Ah.
It was the great thinker Horace Walpole who...
You don't need that.
Well, all right, then. Uh, dearly beloved, we...
Someone call an ambulance?
A couple of seconds, please.
- Niles, why don't you give them rings? - Right. Uh, Dad, this is for you.
- Let's cut to the chase here. - And here, there you go.
Do you, Martin Crane, take Ronee Lawrence
to be your lawfully wedded wife,
forsaking all others
until death do you part?
I do.
Do you, Ronee Lawrence, take Martin Crane...
I do.
Ha-ha-ha. Oh, I'm tearing up. Ha, ha.
If they'd let me say what I planned, you'd be bawling your eyes out.
By the power vested in me,
I now pronounce you man and wife.
Mm.
- Yay. - Oh...
Ha-ha-ha. - Oh, Fras, thank you.
We're ready now.
We're so happy for you both.
Oh, here, here. Sorry.
- Come on. - Congratulations.
And you will always remember your anniversary
because it's the same day as your grandson's birthday.
Yeah, and Eddie's. Ha, ha.
What?
Oh, never mind.
Eddie's birthday is today?
So that's how you came up with May 15th for the hotel?
- Uh, uh... - I knew it.
You've been blaming me all this time.
Oh, you are so busted.
That was a short honeymoon.
Hello, Lilith? Hey, it's me.
Yeah, listen, I was just calling to check out how Freddie's doing.
What? A new one?
I thought he was smitten with the old one.
Well, you know, he gets that from me.
Back in my heyday, I had a new chess coach every month.
Well, I'm spending a lot of time alone lately.
Oh, you know, Dad and Ronee are still on their honeymoon.
Oh, yes, they thank you
for that very thoughtful radon detector you sent.
Not seeing much of Niles and Daphne either
because they're so busy with the baby.
Oh, uh, sorry to keep you.
Uh, yeah, just, uh, tell Freddie to call me. Okay.
Bye, Lilith.
Ah.
- Oh. Right. - Here to pick up a chair.
- It's right there. - Sorry I'm late.
- It's all right. - Been waiting long?
Eleven years.
Uh, be careful with it.
Bebe, hi, it's Frasier.
Listen, about that San Francisco job.
I think I'll take it.
- Have you heard anything, Frasier? - About what?
The new station manager. They're announcing today.
My stomach is in knots.
I just know they're going to replace sweet, kind-hearted Kenny
with some ruthless, draconian...
Hard ass.
That would hardly make up for it.
Frasier.
Bebe. Oh. Uh,
I'll let you know if I hear anything, guys.
It's done.
When destiny calls, Bebe calls back
- and screws destiny to the wall. - Yes, yes, yes. Shh, shh, shh.
I don't anyone to find out. I'm not telling my family until this evening.
I'm so proud of you.
Oh, Bebe, listen, I have something for you.
I've decided to give away some things
I've accumulated through the years.
Sort of a fresh start, you know?
- My baby's all grown up. - Mm.
I look in your eyes and I see something there that I've never seen before.
Wisdom?
Crow's feet.
Sorry, darling, but you're going to be on TV now.
I talked to my face man. He can see you at 4:00.
- Thanks, Bebe, but no. - I'm not talking surgery.
Just a little tweaking, 20 minutes. I've used him for years.
I'm sure he's good at what he does, but still, it's...
I'm done next door so, uh, I'll be in the car, Mom.
Four o'clock it is.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Bye.
- Heard something, didn't you? - Yeah.
- Are you all right? - Of course not.
She's ashen with terror.
Spit it out, Roz.
Who's the jack-booted tyrant
whose fanny I'll be kissing till God knows when?
Me.
Joyful news, Your Majesty.
You?
Roz, uh, congratulations. Aren't you excited?
I don't know. It just hasn't sunk in yet.
Well, that's understandable. When I heard
that my advice would be heard by millions, I...
It just sunk in. I'm the boss.
- Who wants to go have champagne? - Oh, Roz, I'd love to
but I have a doctor's appointment. Can you come for dinner tonight?
- Sure. - Oh, gosh.
- I'm so happy for you. Ha-ha-ha. - I'm just so excited. Oh...
Mm.
Well, was that worth waiting for?
He asked you a question, Roz.
Bebe, it's Frasier. When you get this, call me, please.
I wanna thank you for sending me to that quack of yours today.
He screwed something up.
Now my eyes won't stop watering.
There she is.
- Congratulations. - Oh, well, and to you.
Hey, does anyone know what this big occasion is?
We had plans and Frasier made us cancel.
We're not sure either. He said he had some announcement to make.
- Hey, Roz. - Oh, there he is.
- Oh, yes. - Hey, David.
Remember me? I'm your grandpa.
Yes, and I'm your...
Sorry, I just... I can't say it yet.
Frasier, I brought some champagne if...
- Were you just crying? - No, Roz, of course not. Uh, listen.
Could you take these out for me?
- Sure. - Thank you.
Is Frasier okay?
Sure. Why?
Well, I think he was crying in the kitchen.
Hope he's okay. He's been to the doctor an awful lot lately.
- Has he? - Yeah.
He went today.
And he missed a whole show because of an appointment last week.
- He hasn't said anything to us. - Ronee.
I saw you admiring this china pattern.
Oh, yeah, it's beautiful.
Yes, well.
I'd like to make a gift of them to you
- as a complete set. - Gosh, Frasier.
- Thank you. - Of course.
Oh, Niles.
I know how much you've always coveted this chess set.
I want you to have it.
But this is your favourite. This is the one you learned on.
I want it to be the set
that you teach that son of yours to play on.
I haven't forgotten about you, Roz. Uh, I'll be right back.
I don't like this.
Now, let's not get alarmed.
Marriage in the air and a new baby, it's just brought out his sentimental side.
Hmm.
Frasier, Dr. Hanning.
I'm really sorry about your results.
I know it doesn't look good,
but I'm going to do everything I can for you.
Call me.
Oh, my God.
Do you think that's why he brought us all here tonight?
Here we are, Roz.
I thought this art deco mirror seemed like you.
Oh, God.
Well, that just shows you.
I thought I'd get the bigger reaction from the chess set.
- Frasier, what's going on here? - Yeah.
Giving your stuff away.
You're not going anywhere, are you?
Well, I didn't wanna say anything until after dinner
so as not to bring down the party, but...
No.
I see you're all ahead of me. Uh...
Listen, a couple of weeks ago, I got some unexpected news.
Now, you see, this is exactly what I was trying to avoid.
Uh, you mustn't think of my leaving you as a sad thing.
Because I don't. I think of it as an adventure.
Oh, Frasier, no.
We knew we weren't gonna stay together forever.
I mean, that's not what life is about.
Cry, if you must. But I assure you,
when I pass through that Golden Gate, I will be smiling.
- Golden Gate? - Yes.
That's where I'm moving to. San Francisco.
- What? - My new job.
I start next week.
Now, don't just sit there choking back the tears.
Go ahead, let them out.
I don't believe it. Yeah, I know.
- To San Francisco. - Oh.
To San Francisco.
Hmm.
You know, it's an hour by plane.
So I'll be coming back up as often as you like.
Oh, we know, Fras. Don't worry about us.
We're happy for you.
I'm happy for myself. Heh.
And scared too. But it's a good scared.
Sort of the way I felt when I came here from Boston.
If I hadn't done that, just look at what I would have missed out on.
And look what I would have missed out on.
God, they are so beautiful.
And they'll stay like that as long as she keeps breast-feeding.
Niles, could you take the baby?
- I need to get a blanket. - Of course, sure.
Mm. You know, this is pretty comfortable.
I would have been okay with this.
Let me just help you with some of those dishes.
Oh.
- Handsome boy. - Yes.
And to think I had myself all worked up
worrying that we would have nothing in common.
Oh, I've been there, Niles.
It all works out.
Well, Marty, we better get going.
I got a crazy morning.
Me too. I've got a 7:30 meeting
- and then I've gotta fire someone. - Who?
Whoever scheduled the 7:30 meeting.
- We should go too. - Well,
if you really must go, all right.
But I tell you what, don't go without taking these éclairs with you.
I'm on TV next week. The only thing worse than them going to waste
would be seeing them go to my waist.
What?
It just hit me. You're really leaving.
What will I ever do without you?
- You're the sweetest, most wonderful... - It's okay, Roz.
- He's not going till next week. - Let her talk, Dad.
You've always been just like a brother to me.
Which is weird because we slept together, but...
Oh, move over, Roz.
Do you know how many operas I'm gonna get dragged to
now you're not around?
Well, I promise I'll fly up for all the German ones.
Yeah, and he'll be here for Christmas and Thanksgiving and birthdays
- and we'll be sick of this guy. - Dad's right.
I mean, once I'm gone, there'll be no getting rid of me.
Thank you, Frasier, for...
Well, you know.
- Go get them, kid. - Sure.
You already made me cry once tonight.
That's quite enough.
Right. Coffee tomorrow?
- Ten-thirty. - Ha-ha-ha.
I'll miss the coffees.
Now, look,
you all know how I feel about you.
And the only reason I'm leaving
is because I want what all of you have now.
A new chapter.
Who knows if it'll even work out, but, uh,
it's like that, uh, Tennyson poem.
Mom had us recite for you when we were kids. You remember?
I think we're about to. Ha-ha-ha.
It may be the gulfs will wash us down:
It may be we shall touch The Happy Isles,
And tho' we are not now that strength Which in old days.
Moved earth and heaven,
That which we are, we are;
Made weak by time and fate,
But strong in will.
To strive, to seek, to find.
And not to yield.
I've been thinking about that poem a lot lately.
And I think what it says is that while it's tempting to play it safe,
the more we're willing to risk, the more alive we are.
In the end,
what we regret most are the chances we never took.
And I hope that explains at least a little
this journey on which I am about to embark.
I have loved
every minute
with my KACL family
and all of you.
For 11 years, you've heard me say:
"I'm listening."
Well, you were listening too.
And for that, I am eternally grateful.
Good night, Seattle.
We had a big party that night. It was all very sweet.
What was that?
Oh, good heavens, we've touched down.
- Already? Huh. - Ha, ha.
Well, thank you so much. I've never had an easier flight.
I've never had more delightful company.
Hmm.
I think it's great what you're doing.
Well, I just know I'd always regret it if I didn't take the chance.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Chicago.
For your safety, the captain has asked that you remain seated...
Wish me luck.
On behalf of the flight crew, we hope you had a...
