(door opens)

Oh, I'm sorry, Miss.

If you're here for office hours,
mine are Tuesday night,

and I'm afraid you've missed
Dr. Cornwall's by...

13 years.

It's me, dummy.

Roz!

-(speaks indistinctly)
-(laughs)

What are you doing in Boston?

Well, you know Alice started
grad school in Providence.

-Brown?
-RISD.

She'll be okay.

Anyway,

she broke up with her
boyfriend,

so I came out
to see her tonight,

and she canceled on me
at the last minute

'cause she has a date.

Wait a minute, your daughter

-blew you off for a guy? Well...
-(scoffs)

...as a friend,
I'm sorry to hear that,

but as a firm believer
in behavioral genetics,

-I'm thrilled.
-(both chuckle)

How do I look?

Rich.

Just what I was going for.

-(Frasier laughs)
-(knock at door)

-Ah, Roz. (laughs)
-Hey.

-Hey, Roz.
-Hey.

Thank you so much
for letting me tag along.

-Of course.
-I'm only a little afraid to ask,

-but what is the plan?
-Ooh! Well,

hold onto your hat, it's gonna
be a real barn burner tonight.

-We'll start
with cocktails here. -Okay.

And then the five of us
will be heading to

-Boston's most exclusive...
-Uh-huh.

-...late night...
-All right.

...art gallery opening

for newly named MacArthur Genius
Vincente Ennui

for his work in charting
America's decline

through the tectonic shifts
in interior decor.

Maybe I'll catch
an early flight home.

Oh, no, no, no, no.
Come on, it'll be fun.

Well, maybe not fun,
but, come on, it'll be.

Wait, Freddy,
are you going to this?

This doesn't seem like you.

Oh, yeah, no, I just met

one of the bartenders
working the event.

We're so compatible. It's crazy.

Like, I'm a libra,

she has box seats at Fenway.

And the art history department
will be there.

The most attractive department
on campus.

Their haircuts are so angular.

It's an artsy crowd, but...

I refuse to be sidelined

as a stodgy stuffed shirt
with some

boorishly folded
pocket square. Here.

Now...

that says "free spirit,"
doesn't it?

Them I get, but you, Olivia?

Look, I know
it sounds terrible...

Maybe I call it early.

Might be nice just to have
a free night instead.

Ooh, a free night.

I just had a dream
about one of those.

I dreamt that I got off
my shift early,

and then someone got me
a Diet Coke,

just because.

That's terrible. Don't you
take time for yourself?

Oh, please. I see her at the bar
all the time.

I work there.

Hold on, Eve.

You are surrounded
by capable men.

They must help you out
with the baby all the time.

Um...

They help with John plenty.

Here you go. Yeah.

They really can be
so thoughtful.

It'd be so easy
for them to pass the... buck,

but they're always happy
to lend a helping...

Yeah, okay. Thanks, fellas.

Look, I'm-I'm fine.

I'm gonna take John home.

Would I like
some more free time? Sure.

Would I, uh, like to go to
the dentist every couple years?

(chuckles) Who doesn't?

-(John crying)
-It's okay, sweetheart, it's okay.

ROZ:
That's it, Eve.

You and I are going out,

and I am going to give you
the girls' night

that you deserve.

-Girls' night?
-What about the art gallery?

Yeah, and I don't have a sitter.

That's why these gentlemen

are going to happily
watch him for you.

-Uh... Oh, I don't...
-Is it even legal

for us to look after a baby?

You're watching
the baby tonight.

This woman needs a break.
Look at her. She's a wreck.

-I don't know about wreck.
-She looks like hell.

This is my most expensive top.

You three men-- Really?
That is your most expen...

You're helping tonight,
and that's that.

Eve, come on,
let's get you dressed.

Okay, uh...

He needs to be
in his crib by 8:00,

and call me
if you need anything.

(laughs) So...
girls' night, huh?

(laughs)

Haven't had one of those
in a while.

It's usually just me and those
two grumpy Muppets over there.

Would you like to join us?

Yes, I really would.
No take-backs.

ALAN:
Well, this is a disaster.

All right, I'm just gonna
take this guy out,

let him crawl around on the rug.

No, no. No. No.

Not on my expensive,
hand-woven rug.

This place is entirely
too dangerous for a baby.

This is much better for a baby.

There's no reason why
we should all lose our evenings.

We just need one person
to stay at home and supervise.

Well, I can't miss a gallery
opening just because of a baby.

I did that with Freddy.
I swore it'd never happen again.

Yeah. And like I said,
I'm meeting this bartender.

Oh, yes, Lady Fenway.

Dad. She has a name.

She definitely has a name.

Alan, why can't you take him?

(hisses)

Dear God.

You can't hiss at a baby.

Right, well, I'm disqualified.

Really, why can't you take him?

Well, it's more complicated
than it seems.

Also, and not to be discounted,

-I don't want to.
-FRASIER: Oh...

All right, all right.

Th-There's got to be
some sort of a solution.

Well, King Solomon
would suggest...

No!

Oh, my gosh.

This baby is so cute.

Whose is he?

Oh, well, we're all pitching in

-to watch him.
-LACY: (laughs) Aw.

Well, what a bunch
of sweethearts.

Table nine saw you
watching this little fella

and sent over squash blossoms.

You guys are heroes.

This is fascinating.

I've seen women in this very bar

caring for a baby
to no applause,

and yet,
we turn up with a child,

and suddenly everybody loves us.

God, it's a shameful
double standard.

Really, really cool.

You know...

we could just go to the gallery,

we could take John
with us, and, uh...

to ensure that you gentlemen
have a lovely evening,

I can take the baby
for all of us.

No, no, no, no, Dad, Dad, Dad,
I can't let you do it.

You've done so much already.

Please, let me. I'll watch...

Oh, what you're doing
is so transparent.

For shame.

A round on the house.

I shall look after the baby.

You just hissed at the baby.

Well, look, we've only had him
five minutes,

I've already got a free drink.

By my calculations, if I spend
a three-hour evening with John,

I'll have...

I'll have died.

Please, let me take him.
For God's sakes,

I mean, he's better than
the perfect pocket square.

-No, Dad, the Sox could go
all the way this year. -Let me at least get a refill.

All right, all right,
all right. I have it.

-We will timeshare the baby.
-FREDDY: Of course.

That's-that's genius.
Wait, wait.

Isn't John supposed to be
in his crib by 8:00?

True, but if he's in his crib,

then he can't be exposed
to arts and culture.

Yes, that is most important
to expose them

during the early years,
or something like that.

Let's do this. For John!

Alan.

Oh.

Mmm.

It's really good.

Ah, I'm usually stuck
with stuffy academics.

Oh, it's so nice
to be out with the girls.

-(Eve laughs)
-OLIVIA: All right.

(clears throat) Let's get nasty.

(laughs)

Honest thoughts
about 17th-century poet

Anne Bradstreet? Go.

Who?

Exactly. (laughing)
We're so bad.

So what kind of trouble
do you want to get into next?

Probably the kind of trouble
that wraps up by 10:30.

Oh, come on.

I remember what it was like
raising Alice.

Got to vent some of that
single mom frustration.

Yeah, we can't
end the night yet.

We haven't even
named our group chat.

Ooh, "Text and the City."

Nah, we're better than that.

I love being out with you guys,

but I just feel bad
that I left the guys with John.

They had this
big night out planned.

They're probably miserable.

It's not easy
being a full-time professor

and looking after this cherub
at the same time.

I do my best. I do my best.

(women chuckle)

Ah. Oh.

This is my son.

-Excuse me. Sorry.
-It does take a village.

(laughs)

(sighs) Sorry about that, just
had to change this little guy.

-You are so sweet.
-Well...

I can't believe you watch him
almost every night.

Yeah. Neither can I.

Although, my evenings
are gonna start freeing up

around, uh, April ninth.

That's opening day at Fenway.

Is it?

I don't want
to put the guys out.

Maybe we call it a night.

Don't worry about them.

This is your chance
to cut loose, you know?

Get a guy's number,
do a flaming shot,

wake up on a boat with a sailor
who only speaks Cantonese.

That is way too specific
to be made-up.

How about I do one of those
things, then we call it a night?

-Deal.
-Coward.

We're gonna get you
a guy's number.

Oh, I know this cool spot.

It's an immersive theater

where the actors
interact with the audience.

Is there any possible chance
those are fancy words

for "male strip club"?

It's a great spot, I promise.

There's an illegal speakeasy
in the back. It's wild.

Okay, let's go break some rules
and get some numbers

and get this mom rage out.

Road Dogs, load up.

I'll keep playing with it.

(gentle piano music playing)

-This is great.
-(laughs) Yeah.

This has turned out to be a lot
easier than I would've thought.

-Yeah, having a baby is easy.
-(laughs)

Where's the baby?

I thought you had him.

I came over 'cause it's my turn
with John. Wait...

All right, all right,
let's not panic.

John.

-John.
-Dad, he's not a lost pet.

Come on. (stammers)
You know what? Calm down.

I'm a firefighter,
I'm good under pressure.

Okay. (laughs) Hi. Excuse me.

Have you, uh,
have you seen a baby?

Please help me.
I am freaking out.

Relax, here we are. Don't worry.

Alan...

Huh?

That's not our baby.

Relax.

I offered to look after
Professor Columbus's child

for a moment, that's all.

-Oh, thank you.
-(laughs)

And I must say, Alan,
your grandson

is adorable.

Well, he takes after
his Pop Pop.

Pop Pop?

Back at the bar,
you were hissing at the baby.

Now you're taking care
of two of them,

and there's not even
a free drink involved.

What are you up to?
What sick game are you playing?

This has gone too far.
John was supposed to be

in his crib hours ago.
We need to take him home.

-Yes, Freddy's right.
-No, no, no, we can't go yet.

And why not?

(stammers) I'm saying,

we can't just give up.
That's not the British way.

Did we give up in India?
Did we give up in Hong Kong?

Did we give up in Ireland?

Did we give up in Nigeria?

Canada? Boston?

Yes, in all those places.

But not straight away.

Now, look,
if we can't have John,

we can still enjoy

the idea of John.

Gentlemen, I present to you...

...Schrödinger's Baby.

What the hell happened?

My theater used
to be right here.

Well, now
it's a Kaptain Kebab's.

"Boston's second-finest
nautical Middle Eastern fusion."

Why would they advertise that?

This is the worst.

Okay, which guys' number here
are you going to get?

What? We're still doing that?

-Yeah.
-I don't know, I think it's a sign.

Maybe we should call it.

No, it's a sign
you gotta keep going.

I remember what it was like
to be a single mother.

You've got to take time
for yourself.

Otherwise, you wake up
and your favorite theater...

Has a C+ health rating.

I'd really rather not
talk to anyone here.

-Hey, you. Come here.
-Yes?

-Give her your number
-Can do.

I don't want this guy's number.

-Not a problem.
-Take his number.

-Terry, by the way. Hi.
-Hi.

No, I'm not that desperate.

-None taken.
-That's not what I meant, Terry.

-I shouldn't have assumed.
-Well, if you don't want it,

-I'll take his number.
-I'm open to that.

-No, only Eve.
-Sounds good.

-Terry, you should go.
-On my way.

-Terry, you should stay
right where you are. -Nowhere to be.

Shoo, get out of here.

Roger that.
Happy Friday, everyone.

Why won't you let me help you?
You need this.

It actually seems like
you need this.

What is that supposed to mean?

Your daughter's in grad school,

she bailed on you for a date.

You're feeling
a little adrift and unneeded,

so you're dumping
all that energy onto me

as a way of feeling
necessary to someone.

I'm just gonna
leave my number right here.

Call me if any of
you would like a date,

or an above-ground pool heater.

I do my best.

I do my best.

You're so good with that baby.

I know.

Can I get one little peek?

(laughs)

No.

And my soothing baritone

can even lull the baby to sleep.

Do you hear that?

It's the sound of success.

I'm sorry.

-No, I'm sorry.
-No, I'm sorry.

What are you sorry for?

I don't know,
I just wanted to fit in.

(laughs)

Look, you were right. I-I...

I was so upset
Alice didn't need me,

so I just got up
all in your life instead.

It's okay.

Yes, I do wish
I had more help in my life,

but it's not like I need
to get it all out or anything.

It does get overwhelming.

How did you balance it all?

Oh, screw balance.
That's a myth.

You just hang on for dear life,

and suddenly they're grown

and you're desperate
to get the chaos back.

Yeah, nobody's good at balance.

I have a confession.

I do not have

many female friends
outside of school.

-What? You?
-I find that very surprising.

That's why tonight was
so much fun for me.

Okay. You know what?

Those guys can watch John
a little longer.

Let's go check out
the art gallery.

-OLIVIA: Yes.
-Road Dogs, load up.

You used our name!

We still need
to workshop it a little bit.

Well, gentlemen,
that was one hell of an evening.

-To three men and their baby.
-Yeah.

Oh.

Okay, what do you think?
We quit while we're ahead?

-Yes, let's get out of here.
Come on. -Okay.

What the hell?

You have my baby here
past 11:00?

No, no, no, no. It's actually
much worse than that.

Alan, I hope you've made peace

with whatever British God
you worship,

because if that isn't my baby,
I'm gonna kill you.

Oh, my God,
they traded your baby for wine!

Do you really think we would
trade John for white zinfandel?

Or any wine?

I can explain.
We just took John home.

He's safe and sound,
asleep with David.

You just took him home?

Then why is all his stuff
still here?

So that they could
pick up chicks.

I should come clean, too.

I lied about having box seats
at Fenway.

You what?!

Hold on.

So you took John home
two hours past his bedtime?

And you took credit
for raising him?

(laughing)

(laughter)

Are you kidding me?!

I never ask for anything!

But what should I expect?

I'm raising a child alone.

I wait tables
almost every single night.

Most of what I make goes
to the babysitter.

Yes, I don't pay rent.

Thank you so much for that.

But you're, what,
a multi-multimillionaire?

Well, most of it's tied up
in assets.

I barely get any help
these days, and I asked

for one damn night off,
and you all can't even do that.

And I'm not quite sure you're
pulling off that pocket square.

We are all gonna have a talk
when we get home.

ROZ:
Hmm. You let it out.

I knew you had it in you.

Hey, look, um, decided I...

I'm prepared
to be the bigger person

and look past your lie.

Alan?

-Alan?
-Sorry. what?

You all right?

Wouldn't say "no" to a drink.

Oh. Allow me.

Thank you.

So...

you've sort of been
all over the place tonight.

First, you were repelled
by John,

then you couldn't let him go.

Something you want
to talk about?

Uh, looking after John--
it stirred up a few things.

Hmm. Like what?

Well, you know I don't have
the closest relationship

with my children.

Um, my eldest daughter

in particular
has never forgiven me for...

what happened with her mother.

Right, right.
I know you haven't spoken since.

Oh, I've tried, but it's...
it's-it's been years.

And then, about,
oh, well, four weeks ago,

I-I found out from another
relative that she's pregnant.

So, I called,

and her husband told me that
she still doesn't want to speak.

Now, part of me had thought when
something like this happens,

you know,
all would be smoothed over,

and bygones would
finally be bygones, but, uh,

obviously not.

Which hurts.

I was, after all, her father.

You're still her father.

Listen, I'm sorry
I got you wrapped up

-into all this nonsense.
-No, no, no. No.

Actually, looking after John,
I-I... I felt better.

Probably why I didn't want it
to end.

You know, it's the closest
I'll get to...

what I'll be missing.

For what it's worth, um...
(clears throat)

You know, a few years back, I...

I never really thought
I'd be in Freddy's life again,

but now, I can't imagine my life
without him.

So...

I see that
as your future, as well.

Hmm.

You're a good friend.

And, by the way,

Eve was way out of line
about the pocket hankie.

You know, I think
it looks very dashing.

Thank you.

Thank you again
for watching John.

How are you so good with him?
I've never seen him so quiet.

Oh, I just rubbed
a little whiskey on his gums.

I'm kidding.
I laid out everything wrong

with the Game of Thrones series.
Passed right out.

What do you dopes have
to say for yourselves?

Roz, I, uh...

I think I speak for all of us
when I say that

we are so disappointed
in ourselves.

I mean, we have been proven
to be totally unreliable.

I dare say
we have lost the privilege

of taking care of that baby...

...forever.

They tried so hard.

They did not. They're jerks.

And as punishment,

they're gonna trade off
watching John

every week so that this woman
can finally have break.

But we're so untrustworthy!

Well, that is why David will be

watching you watch the baby
for the next four months.

There's a play
I really want to see in August.

Five months. And Alan,
obviously, you're off the hook.

We should just let the family
clean up this mess.

Oh. Right.

Uh, uh, just a minute, Roz.

I mean, um,
Alan devised this whole scheme,

and I think
he should be punished, as well.

As part of the family.

I don't care.

Thank you, Roz.

-(phone ringing)
-Ooh. Terry.

Almost done.

I'll be there in ten.

Really? Terry?

He was cute.

(door closes)

("Tossed Salads
and Scrambled Eggs" playing)

FRASIER:
Y'all know how this goes.

* Hey, baby,
I hear the blues a-callin' *

* Tossed salads
and scrambled eggs *

* And maybe I seem
a bit confused *

Yeah, maybe.
But I got you pegged.

(chuckles)

* But I don't know what to do *

* With those tossed salads
and scrambled eggs *

* Life's callin' again. *

Thanks for watching, everybody!
