"all the other cars feel threatened"

[schmerica]

I mentioned this the other day in a reply to one of katallison's comments, and then again today while talking to brooklinegirl -- seriously, I think some of the very most endearing Fraser moments ever in the series are ones dealing with his total inability to lie.

There's a certain pattern.

1. Fraser needs to lie.
2. Fraser lies, making up something completely ridiculous and not even remotely believable.
3. The person being lied to stares at him, not taken in at all, and says something along the lines of "Is that true?" or "You're making that up"
4. Fraser breaks down INSTANTLY and admits his untruthful ways.

For examples of the utter cuteness of these exchanges, I invite you to see "Pizzas and Promises", "We are the Eggmen" and "Mountie on the Bounty, part 1."

"Pizza and Promises" has the added bonus of the Really Horrible Suit.

at the same time, I adore how he totally lies to/manipulates Ray in the squadroom (followed by Elaine's "You're very good." "Thank you.")
