It Takes Two To Tangle is the 17th episode of Season 8 of Frasier.
Synopsis[]
FRASIER AND NILES SEEK RICH MATRON AS PATRON -- Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) and Niles (David Hyde Pierce) desperately search for a wealthy patron to lend financial support for their failing former prep school, and their best hope is to latch onto an affluent matron (Emmy Award-winning guest star Barbara Babcock, "Hill Street Blues") -- especially since their dad Martin (John Mahoney) has been squiring her around. However, storm warnings loom when foxy old Martin relishes his newfound role as a player a bit too much while he tries to balance another woman in his schedule and his fussy boys chase after the rich lady's elusive check.

Trivia[]
- When Niles is talking to Roz about Daphne's success at the 'spa,' he indicates that Daphne has already lost 9 pounds 12 ounces. This is a reference (and inside joke) to the weight of Jane Leeves newborn daughter, Isabella.
- In one scene, one of the servers at Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) and Niles's (David Hyde Pierce) wine party trips and sprains her ankle, and is helped to a seat to sit down. However, in the next scene of Frasier and Niles talking in the kitchen, she can clearly be seen in the background serving people.
