  • Carla LeBec: Yoh, Becs. What's this thing you have against rich people? I mean, you're dating a rich guy. You want to be rich yourself, right?

Oh, let's see: sound of surf pounding against the shore, smell of honeysuckle on a warm summer's night, taste of a vintage Chateaux-neuf-du-Pape. [getting turned on]
    Frasier: Fire-red fingernails... dancing through your chest hair. [breathing heavily]
    Frasier: Black lace teddy, straining against its fleshy cargo.
    Sam: Whoah, whoah, Frasier. Snap out of it.
    Frasier: In a minute, Sam.
