Frasier has an announcement to make, for which he is taking Martin, Daphne and Niles out to dinner at Stefano's Italian restaurant. Niles refuses to go, making up an excuse about a patient's crisis; the truth is, he had an embarrassing experience at this restaurant as a child, and is still traumatized by it. Frasier has to make the announcement without him: the restaurant is putting a sketch of his face on their Seattle Wall of Fame, and the unveiling is that very evening. He is most proud, until he sees the caricature; the artist has exaggerated the forehead, presumably to convey a man of learning. Frasier insists on returning the following evening with Niles, to have a tactful word with Stefano about changing it. Luckily, the artist is also in the restaurant, so Stefano agrees to his request. The new caricature has a more proportioned forehead, but Niles points out that it is not recognizable as Frasier, and suddenly they are back where they started.
