Frasier 1022 Fathers and Sons

Season 10, Episode 22 Aired: 5/6/2003
Fathers and Sons

Leland Barton, Hester's former research assistant, comes for a visit after a long absence from Seattle. Roz becomes alarmed when Leland confesses his deep affection for Hester. She notes that Leland and Frasier seem to have much more in common than Frasier and Martin (they are both psychiatrists, enjoy sherry and fine art, etc.) and even have many of the same mannerisms. Leland also shares many habits--and a couple of very rare allergies--with Niles. Roz begins to worry that Leland was the boys' real father. She accidentally shares her suspicions with Martin, who admits that Hester cheated on him and fears that Roz may be right. Roz tries to assure him that his relationship with Frasier and Niles shouldn't change, even if he isn't their biological father. Martin observes Leland's close interaction with Frasier and Niles and finally confronts him. Leland admits that he loved Hester very much--and that he is gay. Meanwhile, Niles and Daphne make plans to apply for a spot in a prestigious prep school for their yet-to-be-conceived child, but can't come up with a name to write on the application.

I wonder how they ruled out the possibility that it was Crane's own semen since DNA testing did not yet exist. He was a well-known porn and sex addict, and could have been murdered during sex -- perhaps by a female partner who felt threatened by pornographic videos of their encounters..

The same family that would name their sons Niles and Frasier. :)

NILES: It takes a brave man to just chuck it all. Cross the ocean in pursuit of a new life in a new country.

DAPHNE: Or a brave woman.

NILES: Oh, yes, that's absolutely right. That's exactly what you did.

FRASIER: Just like Dr. Barton you bade farewell to the comforts of hearth and home and filled your sails with the winds of change and adventure.

DAPHNE: I never looked at it that way. Now I'll have something to think about this afternoon when I'm rubbing your dad's bum.

LOL!
