[edit] Plot outline

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

After looking forward to spending Christmas with Frederick and the rest of the family up at an actual log cabin, Lilith informs Frasier that Frederick has a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit Austria, see Julie Andrews and have dinner with her ('The Sound of Music' is Fredericks favourite movie). This leads to a row with his father and he ends up deciding to stay at home for Christmas and do the noon - 4pm slot on KACL that Bulldog is trying to get other people to do. After a quite depressing show, he ends up at 'Lou's Place' where a lot of homeless people go for their Christmas meal. Having eaten, he realises he has left his wallet at the station but the others don't believe him and they have a whipround for him, leaving Frasier feeling very humbled.

[edit] Memorable quotes

  • Bulldog: You can tell Father Mike's had a few - he's trying to get everyone to re-enact the nativity scene.

Roz: Well, we know who to get for the ass.

  • Callers to the Christmas show:

Caller 1: I've fallen so many times in the shower, they can't fit any more pins in my hip.

Caller 2: I remember that Christmas when I ran into my mother's room, tears streaming down my face, and I said "Mummy, Mummy, the puppy Santa gave me won't woke up"

  • At Lou's Place:

Guy: How's that Turkey Platter - as good as last years?
Frasier: I'm not sure this isn't last years.
