Other Birds

Oliver receives an envelope from Frasier at Garland’s house. After everyone goes to bed, he opens it and finds his mother’s life insurance. Then he receives a text from Zoey, introducing herself and offering to send him his mother’s things. He opens the attached photo and sees his mother’s belongings, including her diaries. He texts Frasier and asks him to deter Zoey from reaching out again. As he goes to his room, Oliver sees Garland having sex with one of her friends. He worries that if Garland dumps him, he’ll lose his job opportunity. Another of Garland’s friends admits that Garland was only using Oliver to make the other man jealous.

At the Dellawisp, Frasier meets Zoey in Lizbeth’s apartment and apologizes for not removing the bookshelf. They discuss Lizbeth’s role as Avanger’s fan site manager, and Zoey asks about Dancing with the Dellawisps and about working with Avanger. The book didn’t do well, but Frasier and Zoey enjoy the dellawisps outside. He tells her about Oliver’s message.

Zoey realizes that Frasier must have known her mother. She reflects on her father and stepmother, who pushed her out of their house and into her inherited condominium.
