[edit] Plot outline

Frasier has to choose whether to return to his heartless former agent Bebe Glazier, or stick with his current representative, well-meaning but wimpy Ben. Maris' insistence that Niles fire their latest couples' therapist, and Niles' refusal to do so, puts Niles' and Maris' weekly conjugal visits on hiatus. Ben brings Frasier the wrong sort of publicity and Niles has trouble controlling his pent-up urges, but Frasier insists that both he and Niles do the ethical thing: Frasier must stay with his ethical agent, and Niles must not fire a perfectly good counsellor just to have sex.
