Episode 8 kicks off with Roz Doyle (played by Peri Gilpin) engrossed in crafting her radio homage to Dr. Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer). The revelation that both Frasier and Freddy Crane (Jack Cutmore-Scott) are making a one-off return to Seattle to revive his former live call-in show intertwines seamlessly when Eve (Jess Salgueiro) pops in momentarily with refreshing beverages. Freddy’s enthusiasm for catching a Mariners game shines brightly, while nearby, David Crane (Anders Keith) reaches his wits' end with Alan Cornwall’s (Nicholas Lyndhurst) blatant disregard for his strained efforts as his teaching assistant. In a move that disheartens Olivia Finch (Toks Olagundoye), David practically imposes himself upon her as her assistant amidst his storming exit.
"Will All This Baggage Fit In The Carry-On?" – Roz embarks on a different tack for her tribute by interviewing Freddy about his visits to Frasier in Seattle, but she is momentarily diverted by a call from Alice (Greer Grammer). As she steps aside, Frasier confides in Freddy about his nerves for the call-in show, mingled with excitement for Freddy to witness him in his natural habitat. At almost the same time, Frasier was taking Freddy to visit KACL radio station, and was also learning about the current situation of his old colleagues. Gil Chesterton (Edward Hibbert) seems to have married his passion for theatrics with fine dining by now serenading restaurant reviews on air, whereas Bulldog Briscoe (Dan Butler) has openly embraced his sexuality. Frasier is even more astonished by the downsized electronic control system at the station, while Briscoe practically hustles them out. Additionally, Roz has apparently orchestrated a meeting with some of the show’s loyal fans.
"Nervosa Wreck" – The proceedings don’t commence on a positive note as Frasier arrives at KACL’s old haunt, barely recognizing the place. However, matters take a turn for the worse when Lou (Rory O’Malley) turns up to inform Frasier that he inspired him to abandon his law career and pursue magic. Upon learning more about Lou’s life and lack of talent, Frasier instantly fears he may have done more harm than good. Terrified that Freddy might think the same, Frasier sets out to rectify the situation.
Trophy Woes – David's fortunes barely improve when he drops by Alan's office, only to discover that Alan has hired a fresh assistant, Mason (played by Camden Garcia). Mason's arrival serves as a catalyst, igniting David's determination to further demonstrate that his arrangement with Olivia is thriving just as planned.
Frasier lends a helping hand to Lou, aiming to conquer his crippling fear of clocks. It doesn't escape Frasier's astute observation that Lou's phobia is rooted in his encounters with Doug, his ex-wife's husband. Apparently, Doug subjects Lou to headlocks whenever they cross paths, and the ticking of Doug's wristwatch has become a tormenting reminder of these confrontations. Frasier persuades Lou to assert himself, a move that unfortunately backfires. Similarly, Alan and Mason's rapport takes a downturn as Alan incessantly compares Mason to David. Olivia arrives at the nick of time to witness Mason's resignation. With some coaxing, she not only convinces him to reconsider and take David back but also manages to elicit a rather circuitous apology from him.
Frasier returns to KACL headquarters with a renewed sense of vigor, believing he has resolved Lou's issue. However, mere seconds before going live on air, he learns that he has inadvertently made the situation far worse. Though Lou did indeed assert himself, it transpires that Doug, who is wheelchair-bound, is also Lou's landlord.
The Show Must Go On – As the broadcast begins, Gil and Roz keep the callers engaged while Frasier and Freddy try to steer Lou through his escalating panic attack. This goes on for several tense minutes until Frasier, growing increasingly frustrated, bluntly tells Lou that there are moments in life when one must recognize it's time to move forward. Though his message is harsh, Frasier delivers it with gentleness, helping Lou see a parallel in his own situation with Roz. This heart-to-heart conversation is abruptly interrupted when they realize Lou has opened the nearest window and now stands perilously on the ledge.
Frasier erroneously presumed that Lou harbored intentions of jumping, a notion that proved entirely unfounded. Instead, Lou's hurried demeanor was fueled by an urgent quest: his pet rabbit, Lucky, had liberated itself from its confines, prompting a desperate chase to reclaim him. Ironically, Frasier's casual mention of jumping inadvertently planted the seed of consideration in Lou's mind. This fleeting interaction ultimately served as a catalyst for profound revelations: Frasier acknowledged that the journey's essence revolved around reconnecting with Freddy, while Freddy confessed that his participation was a penance for missing his grandfather's funeral. Furthermore, it dawned on Lou that his true calling lay back in the realm of personal injury law. The scene closed with Frasier's iconic phrase, "I'm listening, Seattle," echoing over the airwaves.
Goodbye, Seattle – Much later in time, Frasier and Freddy found themselves at McGinty's, a cherished watering hole of Frasier's father. With a touch of pride, Frasier declared that the establishment remained unaltered over the span of two decades. Yet, his assurance was swiftly shattered when Bulldog strode in, quizzically inquiring why they would frequent a gay bar.
