Roz: [pointedly at Niles] No, I think I’ll just go sit over here.
Niles: Roz? Are you trying to avoid me?
Roz: Well, can you blame me? I mean, it took you nearly a year just to learn my name and every time we sit together, you have some kind of snide remark to make.
Niles: Name one.
Roz: Well, last week you told me my bedroom was easier to get into than a community college.
Niles: I was hoping that would be the one you’d name.
Roz: [charging at him] You know, I’ve got half a mind to…
Frasier: No, no, no! Just hold on now, Roz. You and Niles got off on the wrong foot a long time ago. I think if you two sat down and had a real conversation you’d hit it off famously. Here, you sit, Roz, and I will go and get your coffee.
Roz sits down as Frasier goes to the counter.
Niles: [pause] So, how are you?
Roz: Fine. You?
Niles: Great. [pause] I’m handy now. [Roz stares at him] So…that’s a nice jacket.
Roz: Thank you.
Niles: Offbeat.
Roz: And what is that supposed to mean, “offbeat”?
Niles: Well…
Roz: No, wait, I think I know exactly what it means. Offbeat as in cheap. Well, excuse me for not being rich enough to shop at the International House of Tight-Ass like you and Maris the heiress! That is what you meant, right?
Niles: Yes… but I had no idea you’d pick up on it!
Roz: Then you were insulting me.
Niles: Yes, but you got in a couple of good shots yourself.
Roz: I did, didn’t I? I’m so glad we did this!
They shake hands as Frasier returns.
