Irene Olga López: Marta

Quotes 

• Dr. Frasier Crane : [Frasier is is standing outside the glass doors of Niles's house in an attempt to speak to Maris. Marta, who is sweeping up the last of the mess in the living room won't open the door]  Don't ignore me, Marta!

  Marta : Go away!

  Dr. Frasier Crane : Let me in! I need to speak to Mrs. Crane!

  Marta : Missy Crane say no you, Dr. Crane, no other Dr. Crane, and no Crane with a cane.

  Dr. Frasier Crane : Well, at least tell her that I'm here!

  Marta : She know. Everybody know.

  [Marta turns the light off and goes upstairs. Frasier steps back and looks up at the second floor] 

  Dr. Frasier Crane : Maris? Maris, we need to talk! Oh, look, look, I know you're up there, I can see you through the shutters! All right, if you won't talk, listen! Niles didn't ask me to come here, I came because I care about both of you. I realize that Niles spoke to you rather harshly today. Truth be told, is it was I that urged him to express his anger. As hard as it was for you to listen to such criticism, you're a fair-minded woman and you must concede that he had a right to be upset!

  [the window opens] 

  Dr. Frasier Crane : Oh! Oh, Maris! By opening that window you're opening up a window to a long and happy marriage, that's good!

  [a bucket of water is dumped on Frasier's head; he splutters for a few seconds] 

  Dr. Frasier Crane : All right, you're expressing your anger! That's good, too! But, listen, in spite of that last little outburst, I am not going to leave here until we've had some sort of a breakthrough!

  [attack dogs barking] 

  Dr. Frasier Crane : Well, I see our time is up, I'll let myself out!

  [Frasier takes off] 

• Marta : [after Niles says his goodbyes to the servants]  Uh, the staff, they have a question: Can we come with you?
