In the second season of Frasier, Niles (David Hyde Pierce) emerges as a man out of sorts, lusting after Daphne (Jane Leeves), learning about parenthood in "Flour Child," and challenging a Bavarian fencer for the hand of his ever-absent wife, Maris, in the comic tour de force "An Affair to Forget." Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) tries to set up Daphne with the new station manager in "The Matchmaker" and continues his own search for love with dates including Shannon Tweed in "You Scratch My Book" and Tea Leoni in "The Show Where Sam Shows Up". The hilarity continues when Frasier and Niles jump into politics in "The Candidate," the team of Frasier and Roz (Peri Gilpin) breaks up in "Roz in the Doghouse," and Frasier and Niles open a restaurant in "The Innkeepers." Other guest stars include Nathan Lane in "Fool Me Once Shame On You Fool Me Twice," Bebe Neuwirth and Jobeth Williams in "Adventures In Paradise Part 1 and 2" and Ted Danson in "The Show Where Sam Shows Up."
