Plot outline

On the night of Niles' inauguration for a second term as Corkmaster of the Wine Club, Frasier arrives late and announces his resignation. It turns out that he plans to host a new segment on KACL at the end of Gil Chesterton's "Restaurant Beat", called the Wine Corner, and he prefers not to do both. Frasier invites the members of the club to call into the show to enliven the discussion. He is subsequently very disappointed to receive no calls from them whatsoever. He discovers that Niles, annoyed at being upstaged at his inauguration, is using a rule in the Wine Club constitution to prohibit all Wine Club members from calling in. This leads to a rift between the brothers, which Martin refuses to tolerate. He, meanwhile, has a temporary new physical therapist, Frederica, who works him very hard but provides excellent food.

Memorable Quotations

"After a very uninspiring Wine Corner, Frasier signs off with a remark about wine getting better with age, like a good woman"
Roz: Aww, do you really believe that?
Frasier: Oh, who cares, Roz? I stopped listening to "myself" ten minutes ago!

"Frasier is sharing his thoughts on a wine with Martin, in his usual verbose fashion"
Frasier: You don't think it's clear that I enjoy the wine?
Martin: I don't think it's clear you're "talking" about wine.
