He has just discovered the channel\u0027s existence, and can\u0027t stop buying stuff from it. He realizes the stuff he is buying is crap, but just can\u0027t help himself. Although it doesn\u0027t cure his desire, his credit card company helps him out as he is over his credit limit, forcing him to go cold turkey. Meanwhile, Norm and his accomplice Cliff have decided to be puppet masters by putting people in situations they know will cause a conflict. They first start with Rebecca and Carla with a work situation. Their next target is Sam and Frasier. Frasier and Lilith are in the bar for drinks with some work colleagues and Frasier is going to pay with his gold credit card. Norm and Cliff manage to get the credit card number and report the card stolen to the credit card company just before Sam is about to call for authorization for Frasier\u0027s purchases at the bar. When Sam calls, the company informs Sam that he can\u0027t accept the card because it\u0027s been reported stolen. Frasier finds this incredulous since obviously he still has the card. Still, Sam cannot accept payment with such and offers to help Frasier out by having the drinks on the house, starting a bar tab for him or even giving him his own credit cards as replacements. Frasier finds these suggestions by Sam insulting. The one thing Sam cannot do is give Frasier his card back as Sam is required to cut up the card and send it back to the credit card company. Sam snips the card in half in front of Frasier\u0027s eyes, to which Frasier gasps in horror. Because he sees this act from his so-called friend as being intentionally hurtful and humiliating, Frasier vows to leave Cheers and never come back. For Norm and Cliff, this prank has gone a little farther than they anticipated or wanted. Sam ultimately has his revenge with a little help from a withdrawal laden Woody.","wins":0,"nominations":null,"casts":[{"name":"Ted Danson","code":"nm0001101","characters":"Sam Malone"},{"name":"Kirstie Alley","code":"nm0000263","characters":"Rebecca Howe"},{"name":"Rhea Perlman","code":"nm0674231","characters":"Carla Tortelli"},{"name":"John Ratzenberger","code":"nm0001652","characters":"Cliff Clavin"},{"name":"Woody Harrelson","code":"nm0000437","characters":"Woody Boyd"},{"name":"Kelsey Grammer","code":"nm0001288","characters":"Dr. Frasier Crane"},{"name":"George Wendt","code":"nm0001841","characters":"Norm Peterson"},{"name":"Bebe Neuwirth","code":"nm0001564","characters":"Dr. Lilith Sternin"},{"name":"Tom Klunis","code":"nm0460236","characters":"Heinrich"},{"name":"Paul Willson","code":"nm0932750","characters":"Paul Krapence"},{"name":"Lee Allen","code":"nm9476357","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Susan Avants","code":"nm0042790","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Robert Buckingham","code":"nm0118504","characters":"Frasier\u0027s Colleague"},{"name":"Joan Carey","code":"nm0136974","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Alexis Crawford-Ticotin","code":"nm14460923","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Jay Crimp","code":"nm0187870","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"James Davison","code":"nm13922137","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Joyce Goldman","code":"nm0325816","characters":"Bar Patron"}],"budget":null,"lifetimeGross":null,"openingWeekendGross":null,"worldwideGross":null,"keywords":[{"text":"north america"},{"text":"northern hemisphere"},{"text":"alcohol"},{"text":"reference to a christmas story"}],"production":[{"id":"co0010609","text":"Charles\/Burrows\/Charles Productions"},{"id":"co0053559","text":"Paramount Television"},{"id":"co0053559","text":"Paramount Television"}],"prestigiousAwardSummary":null,"moreLikeThisTitles":[]}
