Peri Gilpin does not appear in this episode. Presumably this was
due to scheduling conflicts with her play. Other than Jane Leeves's
maternity leave, this is the only time one of the five regulars has
ever missed an episode.

I didn't know that!! :eek:

Did I hear that right? Did you hear what Niles said?

This is the episode right after N&D found out they were pregnant. In Cafe Nervosa, Daphne is standing by the counter.

[He sits and speaks to Daphne's tummy.]

Niles: Hello in there! It's your painter.


Did Niles say "painter"???

No, he did not. I thought he did, but I looked into it. (Wish subtitles were available on the DVD box sets). This is what happened:

[He sits and speaks to Daphne's tummy.]

Niles: Hello in there! It's your pater.

WHAT!?!?

Dictionary.com :

pa·ter
noun
1. British Informal . father.

I didn't know that

Interesting...I'll have to watch that episode again. Love when Niles is talking to his unborn child. Just adorable!

I love that part too. And I think it's adorable, thoughtful, and just like him to use that word-- a British word. No wonder she loves him so much. What a sweetheart he is. :heart: And how funny is that little smack in the head she gives him? :lol: They were sooo cute together.

Aww, that's so sweet Niles used British to talk to his unborn baby. I watched that episode the other day, and never really got what he said till now. I love that scene. *sigh*
