Niles (David Hyde Pierce) is distraught after receiving divorce papers from Maris. In an attempt to cheer up his brother, Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) urges Niles to see the divorce as a new beginning, but Niles is unable to put a positive spin on the situation.
Meanwhile, Martin (John Mahoney) and Daphne (Jane Leeves) find a journal Frasier and Niles's mother kept when they were babies. After perusing the journals, Frasier tells Niles about the parallels between what their mother wrote about them as kids and how they've evolved into adults. In fact, she viewed them as having weak personalities. Determined to prove that he's no "pushover," Niles signs the divorce papers.
Feeling powerful and manly, Niles returns to Frasier's condo and asks him to read more their mother's journal. Before long, they realize that her observations were about her two lab rats and not them. Niles is beside himself when he realizes he just made a life-changing decision based on his mother's "obsession with vermin." Just as he begins to panic, Maris calls to say that the divorce papers were just a bluff and that she wants to seek counseling for their marriage.

Kirsten has been led to believe that it is a fortune and is eager to get her share. The moment of truth arrives and Kirsten realizes that her father was not as successful as she thought. She accuses Rose of frittering away the money in front of Dorothy and Blanche. Rose finally confesses that she made up the story so her children would be impressed with their father's stature. She didn't want them to think of him as a failure. He was just a decent guy who was always there for a neighbor or a friend who needed a hand-out or a helping hand. The two women reconcile and treat granddaughter, Charley, to a nice lunch on the "estate" money. [CC] [TV-PG D] |

Blanche calls after her, but to no avail. Blanche, Dorothy and Rose follow Lucy to Ed's apartment, which looks like "something out of 'Miami Vice.'"
