Disclaimer: I do not own Frasier

Frasier picked up the phone and dialed the familiar number.

"Sternin residence," came a chipper voice on the other end.

"Hi Freddie, it's your father," Frasier replied.

"Oh, hi, dad," Frederick replied. "When are you coming for a visit?"

"Soon, that's what I'm calling about actually. I want to discuss with your mother when would be a good time for her."

"Okay."

There was a small crash as the eight year old dropped the phone and went scurrying off to find his mother. A few minutes later a cool voice came through.

"Hello, Frasier."

"Hello, Lilith," Frasier smiled slightly. "How are you? How's Brian?"

"We're fine," Lilith replied, but did not elaborate. "How are you?"

"Oh, fine, fine," he responded.

"Frederick said you wanted to arrange a visit?"

"Yes," Frasier pulled his calendar from his pocket and looked at the dates.

He could hear the rustling of papers on the other end, and knew Lilith had just done the exact same thing.

"We're available from the fourteenth to the twenty-fifth, how does that work with your schedule?" Lilith asked.

"Couldn't have planned it more perfectly," Frasier penciled in the dates. "Those are exactly the days I'm available too."

"We were always very in sync," Lilith allowed a moment of reminiscing. "Is that all?"

"Couldn't we talk for a while longer?" Frasier asked, unusually he was alone in the apartment.

"Sure," Lilith replied unexpectedly. "What would you like to talk about?"

"Freddie, perhaps?" Frasier suggested.

His ex-wife let out a sudden, uncharacteristic chuckle, "I have quite a story to tell you about that little boy."

"Oh?"

"He's taken to the habit of lying," Lilith informed him. "I've tried to stop him, and usually I catch him in the act, before it gets out of hand. But apparently there's one lie that was going on for quite a while before I found out about it."

"What was it?" Frasier asked, a smile on his face.

"Well," Lilith began. "It seems he has been telling his friends that I am an alien."

Frasier bit his tongue to stop himself laughing.

"He told them I had a secret third eye on the back of my head, and that's why I always wear it up," she paused. "Frasier, I can hear your stifled laughter."

He suddenly burst out, "I'm sorry, Lilith."

She made a slight harrumphing noise, but he could hear that she was starting to laugh a little too.

"Well, how did you find out about all this in the end?"

"I was driving Frederick to his Junior Mensa meeting, and carpooling Jonathan and Christopher, and I noticed the three of them pulling faces at the other cars, while I was looking in the rear view mirror. Naturally I warned them by telling them 'I can see you', and Frederick's friends started screaming, Christopher even wet his pants."

Frasier wasn't even trying to conceal his laughter at this point.

"When I pulled over, I had a few words with Frederick, and the truth came out."

"Did you punish him?" Frasier had to ask.

"Oh, of course," Lilith replied slyly. "I gave him a small taste of his own medicine. I told his friends that if I were an alien, reasonably, Frederick would be too. They didn't talk for the entire rest of the trip, and didn't take their eyes off either Frederick or myself. I gave up the game when we arrived at the meeting though. I believe Frederick is still a little irate at me, but he hasn't lied since."

"You're a little guileful, you know that?" Frasier told her.

"Oh, yes," Lilith replied. "Frederick's just walked in, I have to drive him to school. I'll see you next week, Frasier."

"Good bye, Lilith," Frasier responded. "Give Frederick a hug from me."

"I will."

There was a click, and she was gone.

Season Four, Episode Ten

Frasier: You know, Lilith actually told me the other day that Frederick has taken to lying. Yes, he told all of his friends that Lilith is an alien.

Martin: Seems as good an explanation as any!

Frasier: He also told them that she wears her hair in a bun to hide the third eye in the back of her head.

Roz: How did Lilith find out?

Frasier: Well, apparently she was driving him and two of his friends to a Junior Mensa meeting, when she looked in the rearview mirror and saw that they were making faces at the other cars. So, never have the words "I can see you!" caused so much screaming and wetting of pants!
