75-Drowning

Mel's demands had become too much for him and he couldn't take it any longer. On the verge of a nervous breakdown, he staged around the living room, aware that his estranged wife simply didn't care about him; and perhaps she never did. So he did what he had to do.

His boldness surprised everyone and when Mel and company stormed out of Frasier's living room, Daphne smiled and kissed Niles tenderly. "Why did you do that?"

He held her close and sighed.

"Because I felt like I was drowning and you saved me, Daphne. You're the only one for me."
