frasier

• martin: i never had a brother, but i had a partner once, my first, mitch gossett. a big bear of a guy, arms like tree trunks. mitch and i'd go to ball games together, we played cards, and this was after workin' eight hours together.
  
  frasier: dad, that's all very nice, but i...
  
  martin: just listen to me. about three months into our partnership, goss and i got assigned to a stakeout. three days in the front seat of a chevy nova together, sleeping sittin' up, drinkin' too much coffee. it didn't take long before we started gettin' on each other's nerves.
  
  niles: because he was a big, egotistical, fat face?
  
  martin: because we were human. he didn't like this about me, i didn't like that about him. it got ugly. when the stakeout was over, goss requested a transfer. and that was fine by me. three months later he was stabbed breakin' up a bar fight. by the time i got to the hospital, it was too late. take what you want from this story, boys. all i know is it ain't worth it.
