Frasier: "A glorious good afternoon, Seattle. This is Dr. Frasier Crane. I'm thinking a lot today about leap year. Today is February 29th, and although it isn't an official holiday, perhaps it could be looked upon as one in a metaphorical sense. Just as Christmas reminds us to be generous of spirit, so leap year reminds us to take a leap in our own lives. To be bold, try something new. Too often we shrink from doing things we really want to, held back by... oh, appearing foolish, perhaps..."

This is such a good episode. I found myself laughing out loud several times.
In this episode, this is the ONLY time you will see what is in front of Frasier when he is broadcasting...
I have this overwelming feeling that I am truely home. I love the way his apartment is set up.
Love this episode Look Before You Leap. There are so many funny lines in it. Here are a few...
Niles: She doesn't want to talk. When she says "get together" she means in the "You wear the creme fraiche, I'll lick it off" sense. She's cleared her schedule from seven till seven-thirty, that means foreplay AND cuddling!
Martin: [gets up] You know, Niles, remember when you were a kid and your mother and I wouldn't discuss the Cuban Missile Crisis in front of you because we knew it'd give you bad dreams?
Niles: Yes.
Martin: It's a two-way street.
Frasier: Niles, you and Maris have not sat down and discussed your problems. As a psychiatrist you know that sex will only cloud the issues.
Niles: You don't realize how desperate I am. Ever since our separation, I've been paying women to touch me.
Frasier: Oh, Niles...
Niles: Manicurists, pedicurists, facialists. Whenever you see a man who's well-groomed, you can bet he's not getting any.
Frasier: Niles... you know I'm right.
Niles: [frustrated] You just don't want me to have sex because you're not having any!
Frasier: [shakes a finger at him] I most certainly am too!
Niles: [grabs his hand] Your lips say yes, but your cuticles speak volumes.
Frasier: Mmm-hmm! Roz, it is a wonderful day. You know, I think the entire city of Seattle is convinced it's springtime. I was walking down the street, I passed a pet store, and in the window I could see two snakes doing a mating dance.
Roz: If you ask me, celebrating a dance that brings more snakes into the world is like toasting a law school graduation.
Niles: Roz... I never noticed what a perky little walk you have.
Martin: Then our pilot comes out. Our landing gear's out, we're gonna have to do an emergency belly landing in six feet of foam! So, five hellish minutes later, we're bouncing across the runway. Then the stewardess comes out and says we're gonna have to go down the emergency slide. So down I go, headfirst into this sea of foam. Last thing I remember, this fat lady from across the aisle comes barreling down the chute after me like a polyester avalanche!
Frasier: My God, Dad, I am so sorry.
Niles: So-so, these stewardesses, were they also covered with foam?
Frasier: Will you stop it!
Niles: Oh, give it up. No one who's followed your little "take a leap" philosophy has ended up even remotely better. I don't care what you're saying, I'm going to Maris.
[He guns down his sherry, then hurls it into the fireplace with a crash.]
Frasier: You will rue the day!
Niles: I don't care! Niles gotta have it!
bingbangbaby 03-04-2012, 12:17 AM Yeah, that's one of the funnier episodes. It cracks me up every time when Roz starts yelling "Oh my God! It's Gary! Oh my God!" :lol:
Schmoopie 03-05-2012, 12:52 PM I didn't get to watch this on Leap Day but I did write two Leap Day Fan fics; the first one being based on this episode. I watched it for the first time in forever a few days before Leap Day and I could not stop laughing! I'd only seen it once and I had forgotten how hilarious it is !Definitely one of my all-time favorite episodes!
And sadly it didn't get up to 80 degrees here in Seattle on Leap Day. Actually it was unusually cold... and snowing! It felt more like 8 degrees! Oh well... maybe we can try for 2016?
