Synopsis[]
WILL FRASIER GO NATIVE IN ROMANTIC SEASON FINALE? JEAN SMART AND PATRICIA CLARKSON GUEST-STAR -- In the season finale, Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) is elated at the prospect of running away with Claire (guest star Patricia Clarkson, "Wonderland") to a secluded Caribbean hideaway -- even when he is joined by Martin (John Mahoney) and sappy lovebirds Niles (David Hyde Pierce) and Daphne (Jane Leeves). While on vacation, Frasier realizes that something is bugging him big time about his new relationship and he seeks the advice of an old friend. As Frasier begins to question his peculiar dreams, he begins to see results from his tutoring sessions with Lana's (guest star Jean Smart, "Designing Women") dullard son, Kirby (guest star Brian Klugman).
