Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This episode marks the return of Frasier's first wife (even before Lilith!), children's entertainer Nanny G, a role played by Emma Thompson on Cheers, and Dina Waters in an earlier Frasier but herein essayed by Laurie Metcalf of Roseanne fame. Having arranged for Roz (Peri Gilpin) and her daughter Alice (Ashley Thomas) to get tickets for one of Nanny G's sold-out concerts, Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) tags along, wondering if he will be able to romantically reconnect with his former wife. The results are surprising -- and not a little unsettling. Meanwhile, Niles (David Hyde Pierce) comes to grief trying to conceal an expensive purchase from his frugal spouse Daphne (Jane Leeves).
