God Works In A Mysterious Ways

Well, I once was watching and episode of Fraiser, one of the best comedy series, and there was a scene that really inspired me, I loved the dialogue so much that I looked for it on the web to read it, and today I wanted to share it with you for I believe it is worth it, and here it is, hope you like it.

Roz: What’s eating you?

Frasier: Oh, I’m sorry. It’s just this thing with my father and this, this person he wants to hire. I thought I’d started my life with a clean slate. I had picture of what it was going to be like, and then, I don’t know…

Roz: Ever heard of Lupe Velez?

Frasier: Who?

Roz: Lupe Velez – the movie star in the ’30s. Well, her career hit the skids, so she decided she’d make one final stab at immortality. She figured if she couldn’t be remembered for her movies, she’d be remembered for the way she died. And all Lupe wanted was to be remembered. So, she plans this lavish suicide – flowers, candles, silk sheets, white satin gown, full hair and makeup, the works. She takes the overdose of pills, lays on the bed, and imagines how beautiful she’s going to look on the front page of tomorrow’s newspaper. Unfortunately, the pills don’t sit well with the enchilada combo plate she sadly chose as her last meal. She stumbles to the bathroom, trips and goes head-first into the toilet, and that’s how they found her.

Frasier: Is there a reason you’re telling me this story?

Roz: Yes. Even though things may not happen like we planned, they can work out anyway.

Frasier: Remind me again how it worked for Lupe, last seen with her head in the toilet?

Roz: All she wanted was to be remembered … Will you ever forget that story??
