Guest Cast: Eric the waiter (Dean Erickson), Harry (John Brandon)

Skyline: Nothing happens.

Plot: Newspaper critic Derek Mann states in his column "I Hate Frasier Crane", much to Niles' amusement. Frasier hits back on his show, and eventually this spirals into a war-of-words.

Derek Mann prints a list of why he hates Frasier, which Frasier takes to pieces on his show. Derek Mann then phones in challenging Dr Crane to a fight.

Frasier at first refuses, but after some persuasion from Martin he decides to face up to Derek Mann. Frasier had refused to fight a bully whilst at school and Martin had got teased by his colleagues, who happened to included the bully's dad. However Martin has a plan to stop the fight before it can actually begin, thus saving both their skins.
