In this episode of Cheers, titled "Someday My Prince Will Come," the gang at the bar is buzzing about an upcoming costume party with a fairytale theme. The excitement is palpable as everyone plans their costumes, from Carla’s Goldilocks getup to Norm’s Robin Hood outfit.
Even Frasier is getting in on the action, showing off a tunic he had made for the occasion. But when he enters the pub dressed as a prince, it’s clear that something is amiss. The gang can’t help but poke fun at him, and Frasier becomes increasingly irritated as the night wears on.
Meanwhile, Woody is trying to impress his girlfriend by cooking her a fancy dinner. But when he realizes that he forgot to buy the main ingredient, he enlists the help of the regulars to save the night. In typical Cheers fashion, their impromptu efforts go hilariously awry.
As the night wears on, Frasier’s frustration grows. He’s convinced that he’s meant for greatness and that his current life as a barfly is beneath him. He decides to leave Cheers and pursue his dreams of becoming a famous psychiatrist.
The gang is shocked by his decision, but they’re ultimately supportive of his ambitions. Diane, however, is conflicted. She’s always had feelings for Frasier and can’t bear the thought of him leaving without expressing them.
In the end, both Frasier and Diane learn a valuable lesson about taking chances and seizing opportunities. As Frasier departs for a new life, Diane realizes that she can’t let him go without telling him how she feels.
"Someday My Prince Will Come" is a classic episode of Cheers, showcasing the show’s signature blend of humor and heart. With its witty dialogue, memorable characters, and relatable themes, it’s no wonder that Cheers remains a beloved staple of television history.
