Rat Girl

Plot:

Rebecca is on a healthy eating kick and is trying to convince others in the bar to join her. The guys do join her in enjoying rice cakes: they are using them as makeshift clay pigeons. Meanwhile, Lilith is in mourning as her favorite lab rat, Whitey, has died. Frasier offers sympathy, that is until he finds out that she is carrying the dead rat in her purse. Frasier throws Whitey in the garbage, and when Lilith finds out, she does the same to Frasier (throw him in the garbage, that is). Lilith has banished Frasier from the house, and thus he's forced to sleep on the bar's couch in his suit. Unfortunately this tiff coincides with an important meeting they have to get Frederick into an exclusive pre-school. Just as it looks like Frederick will make it into the school, the Drs. Crane, upon viewing the school's new baby hamsters and being reminded of another rodent, get into a shouting match about their problems. Later, Frasier and Lilith apologize to each other. This incident has shown to both the preciousness of life and they decide a good way to express this renewal is to have another child. Sam is also in mourning, but is mourning the loss of a beautiful woman, who he never really had since she is rebuking him. But what's worse, she is Paul's girlfriend. Sam doesn't understand how/why anyone would turn him down in favor of someone like Paul. Paul explains that she is a "chubby chaser", and the only person in the bar who turns her on physically more than Paul would be Norm.
