Frasier S 01 E 07 Call Me Irresponsible

Go To

  • Informed Wrongness: Both Niles and Roz berate Frasier in this episode for supposedly getting Marco out of the way in order to date Catherine. Niles considers it a breach of ethics, but as Frasier says, with Marco simply being a caller to his radio show it's arguable that he could even be regarded as a patient. What's more, it was not Frasier's initial intent to encourage Marco to break up with Catherine for the purpose of being able to date her. He hadn't even met Catherine at that point and never expected to. If the ethicality of the situation wasn't put into question by others, it's possible Frasier wouldn't have experienced the nausea brought on by feelings of guilt. That said, advising Marco not to get back together with Catherine when he was regretting his decision may have been a step too far.
