Frasier and Lilith star on a psychology show in Boston to debate. Diane thinks it would be to Lilith's advantage to be more feminine.

"Great"

By Carolee99, Sep 12, 2005

I love Lilith! She's just so funny especially when bantering with Frasier. When Lilith transformed I remembered times in my real life when the same results happened. When the camera shoots back to the audience at the bar watching the show the reactions are priceless. Frasier and Lilith's kiss at the end are classic.

QUOTES (5)
ADD QUOTES
- Lilith: I suggest that your behavior indicates an unacceptable level of sexual frustration. You strike me as a man who needs professional help. Or a girlfriend. Frasier: And you strike me as a woman who could use a good cuffing.
  EDIT SHARE
- Frasier: Believe it or not, Sam. It's actually possible to have hostile feelings towards someone without being in love with them. Sam: You mean I can actually hate Diane without having it mean anything more than I hate her. Frasier: Feel free.
  EDIT SHARE
- Frasier: Dr. Foster had to cancel. Dr. Sternin is going to take his place. Diane: Lilith Sternin? Cliff: You mean that, pardon my French, woman you once dated? Frasier: That's a rather charitable description, Cliff. I just hope they can find someone to replace me as readily as they did Dr. Foster. Carla: Can't handle debating a woman, eh? Frasier: A woman, yes. An ice cube in heels, no.

- (Lilith enters the bar.) Cliff: Uh, oh. Frost warning!
  EDIT SHARE
- (Lilith lets her hair down.) Frasier: You know what? I'm going to kiss you. I'm going to kiss you long and I'm going to kiss you hard. I'm going to kiss you 'til... (Lilith grabs him and kisses him passionately!) Frasier: Yes, like that...!

ALLUSIONS (1)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Lilith: I'd like to thank you, Diane, for your Pygmalion-like transformation. Pygmalion (1912) is a play by George Bernard Shaw that also served as the basis for the musical My Fair Lady. In the story an English speech professor teaches a lower class Cockney flower girl to speak in a refined manner which allows her to pass as a member of the upper class.
