Airdate: 9/21/89
Sam and Rebecca retreat to her apartment after their first
date – and things get hot and heavy real fast. This is too good to be true, and
it is: Rebecca wakes up from her dream, screaming, and yelling at a clueless
Sam. It turns out she’s been having these erotic dream for weeks now, and her
confidential session with Frasier and Lilith on the matter quickly turns public
when Sam overhears everything. He plots to tranquilize Rebecca into a sound
sleep so she’ll dream again, and then put the moves on her, pretending she’s
still dreaming, but she wakes up abruptly – and angrily. The two discuss her
potentially compromising her principals if only for the sake of having a man
again, when Robin Colcord, a millionaire playboy, arrives just in the nick of
time to put her head in the clouds again.
Things are gearing up for the new baby on the Frasier front,
but the big news this season seems to be the introduction of this new guy – a
potential love interest for go-getter Rebecca. (After all, she’s had a whole
season without someone to moon over.) Broad humor continues (i.e. the entire bar sleeping during Sam’s
hypnotic tape) but is still woven smartly with the witty. Still not getting to the real nitty
gritty of the charactizations like we used to.
Cold open: The bar razzes Frasier for putting a lime slice
in his beer (this is ahead of its time) but putting everything but the kitchen
sink in his beer.
