* IWantGrandkids: Roz’s family are having a big reunion in Wisconsin and she hasn’t gone, a decision she regrets.

* StraightMan: Deconstructed; Frasier just wants to have fun with his friends and family but they’re all neurotic SitcomCharacterArchetypes and so he spends all his time having to deal with their problems. Finally he gives a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech because not only do they not show gratitude but they turn on him the moment they feel inconvenienced.
