In the B-plot, Cliff is again being mildly creepy, paying a little too much attention to the lady who hosts the Weather Channel at night.

Added DiffLines:

* FoodSlap: Cliff decides to screw with Carla by putting her tip under an upturned glass full of water. Not only does Carla not fall for it, she throws the glass of water in Cliff's face.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Jerkass}}: Much like just two episodes ago in "[[Recap/CheersS9E19 Crash of the Titans]]", Sam cruelly mocks a business idea of Rebecca's. This time he's probably right--as events prove, Cheers does not attract the tea room sort--but he's mean about it, drawing up a big fat 0 on a poster board when Rebecca says he can have half the profits. And just like two episodes ago Sam's meanness threatens to backfire, when Rebecca commandeers Woody's pot of chili and starts making a lot more money.
* OnionTears: When Sam says he feels like crying after blowing up Rebecca's pot of chili, she demands that he actually does cry. He tries to use the chopped onions on one of Rebecca's tea room tables, to no avail.

"Cheers has Chili" is the twenty-first episode of the ninth season of ''Series/{{Cheers}}''.

Rebecca's got another hare-brained venture to raise capital at Cheers - an up-market tea room in what was the pool room. Sam's not remotely enthused by it, but Rebecca insists it'll make money, even betting Sam that if she makes $500 by the evening, she can keep her tea rooms.

Things initially don't get off to the greatest start. Seems a bar like Cheers just doesn't attract the kind of clientele who go to tea rooms. Meanwhile, Woody's bringing in some homemade chili, and it's damn good stuff. So good, in fact, Rebecca appropriates it to draw customers to her tea room and win the bet.

!!Tropes:
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: The strange and contradictory morality of Carla. She advises Sam to murder Rebecca just to win the bet, but cheating is wrong. Evidently cheating is only right when Carla's doing it.
* EpicFail: Sam and the stove. He's barely in the backroom for ten seconds before there's an almighty boom, and everyone comes to find the room devastated and covered in chili, as is Sam himself, ground zero for the chilisplosion (which apparently catapulted the stove across the back alley and into a wall).
* HenpeckedHusband: Frasier admits he's only going to the tea room because he's "whipped, and proud of it". On the plus side, this gets him out of trouble later when he's in trouble with Lilith.
-->'''Frasier:''' Let me have this one. I already said I was whipped in front of the guys.\\
'''Lilith:''' That was good.
* SayingTooMuch: Frasier tries to compare the notion of tea rooms to a mistress, in a way that suggests he's been thinking ''way'' too much about the subject, much to Lilith's ire and suspicion.
* WhatTheHellHero: Woody and Carla disapprove of Sam cheating when it looks like he's losing his bet with Rebecca.
