Dr. Frasier Crane : All right, stop everything. I've got a major news flash. I just had lunch with Miss Howe's former college classmate, and it seems that she had a nickname at UConn.
Sam Malone : Give, give.
Dr. Frasier Crane : Well, he wasn't sure how she came by this appellation, but it seems that at some point during her little sojourn there, she became known as... Backseat Becky.
[general laughter among the crowd]
Woody Boyd : Boy, what do you suppose that means?
Cliff Clavin : Woody, what that means is...
Carla LeBec : Cliff, Cliff, why don't you let someone who's been there tell it. Woods, she likes to do her cushion pushin' on four wheels.
Woody Boyd : Miss Howe? Really? You know, back where I come from, we used to say something about girls like that.
Carla LeBec : What?
Woody Boyd : Let's date 'em.
[Rebecca enters the room]
Sam Malone : [looking in Rebecca's direction] Oh, looky here. Something tells me I'm going to be completely obnoxious about this.
[everyone laughs as Rebecca approaches]
Rebecca Howe : What's so funny?
Sam Malone : Oh, we were just talking about nicknames, you know, different funny nicknames that people have. Did you ever have a nickname?
Rebecca Howe : As a matter of fact, no.
Sam Malone : Really? Nothing, huh? Not a Sparky, or Lefty, or Bubba?
Rebecca Howe : Sorry.
Sam Malone : Guys, we oughta give Rebecca here a nickname. Ah, you know, something that kind of fits her personality: kind of dignified, kind of businesslike, kind of reserved. Let me think a minute.
[pauses]
Sam Malone : Anybody?
Dr. Frasier Crane , Carla LeBec , Cliff Clavin , Tim , Hugh , Norm Peterson : [loudly] Backseat Becky.
[Rebecca slinks down behind the bar in embarrassment]
Sam Malone : Gee, that works for me.
Woody Boyd : I kind of like Bubba.
