Frasier finds an old earthenware crock in his kitchen that brings back memories, including the time Roz set him up with her friend (Rosie Perez).
Examples:
- Dramatic Irony: Most of the episode's flashbacks have elements of this, such as Frasier and Niles agreeing to switch which one of them houses Martin every six months (which of course never happens), or Kenny appearing as a pizza delivery man that tries to ask Frasier for help getting a job at the station before Frasier slams the door in his face.
- Gift-Giving Gaffe: In a flashback depicting one of Martin's first days living with Frasier, he mistook blue cheese for something past its expiration date, and apologizes by having it replaced...with cheap processed cheese curds. The only reason Frasier doesn't throw him out immediately is Niles promising that they can regularly switch arrangements.
- Intimate Telecommunications: During the flashback to the period where they were fired from KACL, Roz reveals she took a temporary job at a phone sex chatline to make some extra money. She points out the flexibility of a job that she can do from anywhere with cellphone service, but Frasier asks her not to take calls in his apartment. Hilarity ensues when she leaves her phone unattended and Martin picks up one of the calls.
- Mood Whiplash: After spending the episode reminiscing over how the crock has been there for so many key moments of his life, Frasier decides to make it into a centerpiece...and then in The Tag, he tries to use it as a flowerpot during dinner, only for water to immediately leak out of it and ruin everyone's meal.
- Uncle Sam Wants You: Frasier is dressed as Uncle Sam, which sparks this exchange:Frasier: Dad, I bought you these headphones, so that I wouldn't be subjected to your sports drivel. Please put them on.Martin: All right, I will. But only if you say it.(Frasier sighs and points his finger at Martin.)Frasier: I WANT YOU... to wear those headphones!
- Whole Episode Flashback: Nearly the entire episode consists of flashes of Frasier's past, up to the very start of the series (and with their old hairstyles to match), as Frasier wonders whether to keep or throw out an old crock that's been in his apartment the entire time.
