* AmicableExes: Frasier and Lilith agree to work together on writing a book about how divorced couples can still work together to successfully raise their chil(ren).

Despite expectations they're perfectly cordial to each other and make polite small talk. Frasier decides this is too weird and demands they go back to the bitter sniping that defined their relationship before their tryst.
