Plot: It's Thanksgiving, and Lilith and Frederick are going to join Frasier, Niles and Martin in Niles' cabin in the Rockies. That is, until Lilith phones to say that Frederick has passed the qualifying exam for Mulberry Academy, Boston's most exclusive private school. She and Frasier will need to meet Dr Campbell there to try and get him in. So the Cranes fly off to Boston.

Frasier and Lilith head off to the academy. He and the two doctors do not get on and is evident that this dislike will stop Fredrick being accepted.
