Warning: Spoilers
This is a nice episode to flesh out the relationship between Frasier and Charlotte and set up the ticking clock on this (she is moving away) that you would suspect will add drama to the upcoming finale.
Regularly voted one of the worst 'Frasier' episodes, I'm afraid I can't agree. There have been a lot worse episodes than this since the golden era of the show came to a shuddering end in Series Seven. Compared to anything involving Lana, Kirby or Julia this is a pleasurable 22 mins.
It's not great, there's no getting away from that, and the Niles/Daphne/Martin storyline actually fares a lot better than Frasier's, which oddly dips its toe into the black comedy arena, where it/the show does not belong.
An important episode as we move towards the finale, but nothing special.
