Daphne Returns is the 19th episode of Season 8 of Frasier.
Daphne only appears in season 2 when the story needs her perspective — either as Anthony's brother or a woman who has gone through London's courtship season before. Because those moments come at Aubrey Hall, that's why she's on-screen primarily in the middle part of the season.
Daphne discovers that her period has come. She is not pregnant, and she sobs heavily. Violet comes to her rescue and hugs her. Simon hears her cry.
At a social event held by Frasier, Mel finally pushes Niles to the limit; Niles publicly disowns "this sham of a marriage", and the two are quickly divorced. Mel is humiliated and does not appear again in the series after this.

Daphne Moon (Jane Leeves) is a beloved character and integral part of Frasier, but she was originally rejected by star Kelsey Grammer.
“David basically decided he wasn't really interested in repeating the performance of Niles,” Grammer told People in an interview. After Frasier, Hyde Pierce went on to successful theater career and most recently starred in the HBO Max series Julia.
It is here that Roz and Frasier reconcile, and agree to remain friends. In the show's final episode, Roz becomes station manager of KACL after the previous manager, Kenny Daly, decides to become a DJ again.

Jane Leeves was pregnant twice during Frasier. While her second pregnancy was written into the final season, her first wasn't and the writers gave Daphne a storyline where she gains weight instead. In Season 8, Daphne begins gaining weight and becoming addicted to food.

In a bold move, Frasier changes his mind and decides to take the job in San Francisco. This sets up scenes that so many sitcom finales have, with our main characters moving away and saying their goodbye to the ones they'll leave behind.
Maris Crane is Niles Crane's wife for much of the series, though she is never fully seen onscreen (much like Norm Peterson's wife, Vera, on Cheers). She is the most notable of the show's never-seen characters, and often the subject of many jokes. Her family is not revealed on the series.
