After having a bad day, Frasier loses his temper with a rude patron at Nervosa's and throws him out, but soon discovers that he has influenced people to take drastic measures against those who annoy them.
Tropes:
- Ceiling Banger: Frasier is being driven mad by the tenant above him who keeps playing his rock music at ear-splitting volume. At first "Freddie Chainsaw" ignores his pleas to keep it down, but after the publicity over Frasier losing his temper the next time he calls to complain Freddie immediately cuts the music.
- Disproportionate Retribution: Some of Frasier's listeners follow his "example" to extreme lengths, such as the woman who sets her neighbor's lawn on fire for not cleaning up after their dog.
- Ear Worm: While complaining about the noise from the upstairs neighbor, Daphne tells the Cranes how she used to live above a rock band. After singing a few bars of their song as demonstration she realises she's now going to have it stuck in her head for the rest of the day. Several scenes later she and Martin are seen walking around the apartment singing the lyrics under their breaths.Daphne: Flesh is burning, na-na-na-na-na-na...(she walks off to her room)
Martin: (emerging from the kitchen) na-na-na-na-na-na, flesh is burning. - Frivolous Lawsuit: Doug Harvey attempts to do this to Frasier for throwing him out of Nervosa. It never goes ahead when Niles causes himself to be hurt when Mr. Harvey pokes him and Frasier threatens to sue him.Frasier: Niles! Niles, are you alright?
Niles: (grabs Frasier jacket and whispers) Counter suit! - My God, What Have I Done?: Frasier is horrified when people reveal that he "inspired" them to deal with their problems in needlessly aggressive ways.
- Rage Breaking Point: After a long, bad day Frasier reaches his breaking point when Doug steals his seat at Nervosa.
- Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll: Invoked by Frasier while complaining about how loudly his guitarist neighbor keeps playing his music.Frasier: Doesn't he ever stop for sex and drugs?!
- World of Jerkass: Frasier apparently sees this the hard way.
