...Frasier are on display in an episode like last season's "Room Service," which recounts the consequences when Niles has a tryst with Frasier's ex-wife Lilith, who is visiting from out of town and after whom Frasier continues to lust. The construction is faultless, as a waiter delivers breakfast to Lilith and Niles; returns to find Lilith and Frasier; and on his third visit discovers Frasier and Niles.
