It's
Valentines Day . Niles dumps a boys' night out with Frasier at the Opera to be with his girlfriend Mel. Hoping to meet a beautiful woman he's been eying from across his box at the Opera for several weeks, and not wanting to go alone, Frasier asks Martin to go with him. Having to choose between that and staying at home to watch Sophie's Choice with Roz and Daphne, Martin decides on the former. Later at the Opera Frasier sees the gorgeous woman. He and Martin meet her (Emily) and the woman's mother, Helen, during intermission. As Helen tries to ask Martin out on a date, Martin, finding her unattractive, panics. After a pause he lies and tells her he's gay. That evening Emily brings her gay uncle, Edward, to Frasier's apartment, hoping to set him up with Martin. Martin does not realize that Edward is gay until it is largely too late. Realizing Edward's true sexuality and heightened interest in him, Martin pretends that he and Niles are an item. Niles finds a way out and leaves. While Frasier hopes to have a long Romantic night with Emily, Edward reminds her that he needs to get home as it is getting late. Emily readies to leave as she is Edward's ride. Just then, in the spirit of Valentine's Day, Martin offers to give Edward a ride home, giving Frasier and Emily the evening together.Episode Title Cards
