Plot outline

The KACL station manager wants to meet with Frasier, to talk about his one thousandth radio broadcast which is soon to take place. Frasier is expecting some sort of elaborate public celebration, and maintains that this sort of circus is not what he wants. Roz calls his bluff by speaking to the station manager herself and persuading him to drop the celebration plans entirely. When Frasier hears about this, he changes his tune and admits that maybe some low-key celebration would be appropriate. Before long, Frasier Crane Day is proclaimed in Seattle, and a massive public rally is organised for the broadcast, to take place at the Space Needle with the Mayor in attendance. Niles jokes about it endlessly to mask his overt jealousy.

On the day itself, Frasier decides to take a leisurely stroll with Niles over to the rally in plenty of time, and uses it as the opportunity for a quasi-regal walkabout, waving to people in the street. Unfortunately, a series of disastrous events impede his progress, and Roz is compelled to start the broadcast without him.
