Continuity mistake: Niles says on Daphne's wedding day that he told her he loved her on his 3 day anniversary, making Daphne's wedding his 4 day anniversary. At Nervosa, Mel says it's their 4 day anniversary, when at this point one more night has passed and it's now 5 days since they married.

And the Dish Ran Away with the Spoon (1) - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: Frasier is in Donny's office, and Donny is holding a little wedding cake groom. He covers the groom with his hands while he's talking, but when Frasier says, "Daphne realizes you went to great expense," the little bridegroom is visible again, even though in real time it couldn't have happened.

Frasier: Niles, I would shave my head for you.
Niles: A gesture which becomes less significant with each passing year.

Show generally

Question: There's probably an obvious answer to this but is there any actual in-show significance to the 'Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs' song heard at the end of every episode? I ask mainly because I remembered there was one show in particular where Frasier unintentionally scars Lilith emotionally and pretty much cements the end of their relationship over a misunderstanding about scrambled eggs. Were there any similar conflicts over a tossed salad?

Answer: In the last episode, they explained that Tossed Salad and Scrambled Eggs is a metaphor for the mixed-up people to whom Frasier dispenses his radio psychiatric advice.
