It's too much garlic.

- You're telling me it's too much garlic?
- Why don't you tell me, carm?

Yeah, it's too much.

What did I say?

You know, that thing that...

It didn't... you know,
it didn't work out, so...

Which thing?

Rental cars.

The thing. Yeah.

Sorry.

- Can I ask you something?
- For fuck's sake, carm.

- What, dude? Like, what?
- What?

- What were you gonna say?
- Forget it, Mike.

"Everybody thought it was
stupid. You do this all the time.

- "You fucking..." What were you gonna say?
- No. Mike.

I was gonna ask if
you gave a shit about it.

If I give a shit about what,
carm? Fucking what people say?

- No, I don't give a shit about that.
- No.

If you just gave a shit
about the rental car business.

I don't... I don't... no.

No, I don't give a shit about that.

You need to stir that. I mean,
for Christ's sake, I hear it sticking.

All right.

How'd you raise the money?

Second time you asked me that.

It's the second time you didn't answer.

You need money, carm?

What if I wanted to open a restaurant?

- What the fuck is that?
- What?

- Why a restaurant?
- Why not a restaurant?

- You already have a restaurant.
- But this would be a different restaurant.

Tell me more.

Look, every one of our good memories,
they happen in restaurants, right?

Like the homer's ice
cream after baseball.

You know, omega, after that
weird birthday party with mom.

- You know, we couldn't stop laughing.
- Yeah, fuck in...

Look, like, all this good shit, it
happened to us in restaurants

'cause restaurants are
special places, right?

Yeah.

And people go to
restaurants to be taken care of.

All right? They go to
restaurants to celebrate, to relax,

to not have to think about
anything else for a minute.

Now, people go to
restaurants to feel less lonely.

You know, even dad.

What do you mean "dad"?

I don't know. The only time I can
remember him being even remotely happy,

was when he would talk about
that, Irish place you love so much.

You remember that? Jesus Christ.

What?

You remember that place?
You remember what it's called?

- No, I don't remember.
- It was a shithole.

It smelled like a dumpster.
It was fucking hell.

- Well, he loved it.
- Yeah.

Do you, like, do that?
You think about pop?

What was he like?

I don't know, like...

Like, when was the last
time you talked to him?

- I don't know.
- Yeah.

You feel that?

That's pretty much it.

Carmy, that's what he's like.

He was an asshole.

Well, everybody loves restaurants.

- Even assholes.
- I don't know, man.

I'm in a restaurant every
single fucking day of my life.

I've definitely met thousands of people
who definitely do not love restaurants.

- They would love ours.
- Why is that?

- Because it would be ours.
- Carmy, listen.

Just because you've, like,
been to fucking napa, you know,

it doesn't make this a
not-fucked business.

- Just because you put grass on plates...
- I know that.

- And fucking, it's like...
- I know that. It's fucking hard.

- Right? It's fucking hard.
- You have no fucking idea.

And that's what makes it special, right?

It's fucking hard... And it's gnarly,

and it's brutal, and it's specific,

and not everybody can do it.

- That's right.
- But I can do it, Mike.

Look, we could do this.

Right? We could take care of people.

We can make it calm.
We can make it delicious.

We could play good music.

People would want to come
in there to celebrate. All right?

They'd want to come in
there after they had great days.

And they'd want to come in there
even more after they had shitty ones.

We can make people happy, Mike.

You and me?

Yeah, you and me.

You, like...

You really thought about this?

I know what it smells like.

What do you call it?

We could call it Mikey's.

I think... I think I got a better one.

Well, what if there is no
tomorrow? There wasn't one today.

Hello? Hello!

You know,

some guys would look at
this glass and they would say,

"you know, that glass is half empty."

Other guys would say,
"that glass is half full."

I think of you as a "glass is
half-empty" kind of guy. Am I right?

What would you do if you
were stuck in one place,

and every day was exactly the same,
and nothing that you did mattered?

You're gonna have to
be a little more specific.

I

I wasn't good enough,
and I need to be better.

Okay, I-I don't know
if that's the takeaway.

What's the takeaway?

The trib ate here three times
at three different restaurants.

And the food sounded good.

Sometimes.

They didn't like the vibe.

They didn't like the chaos. And
yeah, frankly, I don't know if I do either.

You think I like chaos?

I mean, I.

I think you think you
needed to be talented.

You would be just as
good. You would be great.

You know... maybe even
better of, you know, a cook

without this need for, like, mess.

Congrats. That knocked
the wind right out of me.

- Well, you don't need it.
- Air?

Dysfunction.

You're shutting down.

I can feel you shutting down.

You can feel it in this place.

I have no idea, like, where you are.

I don't like dysfunction.

Okay, well, what do you like?

I like this.

Okay, that was, like, maybe
the most miserable delivery

of someone liking
something, I think, ever.

Yeah, I told you I'm trying to be better.

Okay. Maybe just try
to be less miserable first.

That hurt.

Good.

Okay. So, what happened with the bear?

Review kicked me in the nards.

- No. I mean the bear at the store.
- What'd she tell you happened?

She came home from your house,
and now she thinks you're mad at her.

No, no, no. No. Let me tell you...

She wanted a bear that cost a
hundred bucks, and I said no.

And then she got pissed,
and I didn't back down.

Okay, cool. That's all you gotta say.

She said she deserved it.

And I wasn't taking "no" for
an answer, and I don't know.

Does frank buy her a lot of shit?

Maybe you guys just parent differently
now, and I'm out of the loop, maybe.

What are you talking about?

Look, I try to establish and set rules

by fostering an independence
to help her develop self-control.

- Cool.
- Not unlike the way I run my business.

She's seven, Richard.

You know what, tiff, I'm sorry. I
gotta take this. I'll call you back.

Fuck.

Anybody know where the...

How about you stare at it for one
more minute and then we throw it away?

Throw it away now. I'm good.

Gladly.

- Yo.
- Yo.

You good?

You ever feel like you're stuck in the
same day, like, over and over again?

Like groundhog day?

Yeah, like you can't get to tomorrow.

I have before.

Yeah, what'd you do? Like,
how'd you... how'd you fix it?

Well, started working here.

I tried that.

Excellent.

Ma'am.

- Sir.
- What's going on out here?

Creating opportunity.

All right. A new system?

For me, yes. And setting
up new delivery app.

And trying to keep the
window as busy as possible.

No problem there. The review
loved your sandwiches. Nice work.

They liked other things too.

Yeah, maybe.

I gotta get faster.

The review said the pasta was late.

All three visits. I've
been fucking up, man.

Well, we're in a new system.

They should have
reviewed in a few weeks.

I feel like the only way I can look at it
is like, I gotta get my head in the game.

I gotta focus. I gotta
get faster, you know?

Take some of the positive,
take some of the negative.

Head down, good
work. That's my system.

Good system, sir.

System, baby.

Yeah.

Morning sports fans.

- Hi, Mr. Kalinowski. Computer.
- Hi, honey.

- Hey, Syd.
- There's something we want to show you.

- Tremendous.
- Computer, display.

- Outlet?
- Yeah. Right there.

Sorry, nat keeps calling.

Yo, yeah. I think I know what this is
about. I've got unc and computer here.

So I'm gonna put you on speaker.
Is that all right? Okay, one sec.

- Hi, sug.
- Hi.

- Hi.
- My sweet darlin'.

I can probably guess
what's going on over there.

I don't know if you could. We've got
computer plugging a clock into the wall.

Why?

Why are you plugging
a clock into the wall?

Props are proven to be effective.

Anybody read anything good lately?

Just curious.

Okay, moving on, moving on.

This clock is displaying 1,440 hours.

Anybody know how long that is?

- Three months.
- Two months.

- Fuck me.
- Neph, I don't know what you're worse at,

math or calling people back.

Anyway, that clock is telling you
officially how much money we have left.

Okay, but we've got ten
months to pay you back.

- Nine months.
- Nine months.

- Jesus Christ.
- Which leaves a gap of?

S... Seven months.

Okay. So?

Computer, say it a different way.

We have an option in the deal.

If the business starts to bleed
profusely, we're allowed to act.

Act? So what does that mean?

It's just a tourniquet, buddy.
When that clock shows zero,

this restaurant needs
to, cease operations.

Really sorry.

- Sydney.
- Okay.

Am I wrong though in
thinking that two months

is actually a pretty good parachute.

- Yeah, I agree.
- No, no, you're both right.

Then what's the problem?

First off, it's fine to "okay parachute,"

for which we owe a great deal of praise
to the gentleman running the beef window,

'cause that business
is shockingly rocking.

Secondly, this parachute doesn't take
into consideration any repayment of loans,

produce terms, and delivery terms,

reservation no-shows.

My sampling shows no growth or escalation,
which is the sign of a dead business.

Third, you're talking
about a healthy parachute.

- This is not that.
- What's making our parachute unhealthy?

- Yeah.
- Full of holes.

What kind of holes are we talking about?

Fucking bazooka-sized holes,
courtesy of Chicago fucking trib.

Well, there were nice words.

Absolutely, but there were also
words like "confusing" and "show-off-y."

And "dissonance."

Tell me, Nicholas, what does
that word mean to you personally?

Harmonically fucked, James.

Computer. What are you telling us?

- Did you read my charts?
- Absolutely not.

I color coded them for you.

Well, I tried, and no offense, the
colors were weird and it was depressing.

- Yeah, I read the charts.
- And?

They got depressing.

Right, so, you know, unless
there's a marked difference,

like a giant fucking difference, like,
"holy shit, that changes everything.

That's a gigantic fucking change."

If that doesn't happen, this is this.

Clock runs out, you close a month ago.

- Unc, is this real?
- I'm so sorry, darlin'.

I got to put the restaurant back on
the market. Try and recoup something.

I like to bring about
the inevitable instantly,

- unlike my partner over here...
- Shut the fuck up.

Who would drag the thing
along like a kid's wagon

- that doesn't have its wheels on anymore.
- Shut up!

Shit.

What's this?

Yeah, what's going on?
Hey, computer. Hey, unc.

- Greetings, Neil.
- Hi, my love.

- Hey, nat.
- Hey, sugar bear.

- Anybody care to catch these two up?
- We have a two-month parachute.

- Sick.
- No, wrong.

- Why wrong?
- Holes.

- What kind of holes?
- Big ones, honey.

Once the parachute runs
out, they're suggesting

no, not suggesting. Telling.

They're telling us that we're
gonna have to close the restaurant,

because after that point

would be like beating a dead horse.

Yeah, like blasting a fucking wet crap all
over it before you throw it off a cliff.

Then running it over with a panzer tank.

Before you set it on fire and run it
through the fucking wood chipper.

And then scraping it up, then drowning it.

- After which...
- I think we get it.

Just, thank you, though.

May I speak for a moment?

Please.

All right. Uncle j, uncle computer.

Am I correct to assume
that this presentation

has something to do with a little
unsavory article in the paper of record?

- Would be safe to assume that.
- All right.

This is what I wanna say. This...

Just like we practiced.

All right.

I read that article very carefully.

I admit, initially, I did
bristle and dismiss it

as the musings of some
"scustumad" millennial jagoff.

No offense.

But upon reflection and,
further rereading and a cigarette,

I realized that there was
a lot of truth in that article.

Some bullshit but also a lot of truth.

I've been doing a lot of work on myself.

I don't think that's a secret.
And, it made me realize that I.

I'm dropping the ball. All
right? There's no excuse.

That man came in three
times. I should have known it.

Not 'cause he's a critic.
Because he's a repeat guest.

There's no excuse for that.
And I am very, very sorry.

- Richie, stop. Hold on. Stop.
- I appreciate that.

- No. Richie.
- I think I should be the one

that's taking the blame.

Enough of martyr
Carmen. Let me just finish.

- I'm trying to tell you it's my fault.
- You're not listening to me.

No, you're not listening.

- Okay, bye.
- -I'm the one changing the menu.

I didn't get to the point

- I'm telling you I'm doing...
- I hired people to help me.

Stop hiring... Fucking hiring people!

Everybody quit. I needed to
replace them. That's science.

- Who quit?
- Eric, Debbie and David.

Who the fuck are Eric,
Debbie and David?

Debbie was really nice to me,
and then Eric's kinda whatever.

- But David is the best.
- Fuckin' dissonance, bro.

Okay.

- What about when we get the star?
- If.

If we get the star.

Right?

Yeah, as strange as it seems.

What, the sound of her laughter
may sing in your dreams?

Rodgers and hammerstein. 1958, '58.

Yeah, '58.

I'm serious.

Carmen, this has never been
more serious. Okay? Never ever.

We're gonna get the star.

Well, you got that
amount of time to get it.

- Yo, uncle computer.
- Yo, Chuck.

I wanna let you know we got a robot.

So nobody freak out when
you see it riding around outside.

- We're listening.
- His name's chuckie.

And what does chuckie do?

Chuckie delivers. I got it
for free with a delivery app.

- Delivery app?
- Excellent work.

- Nice work.
- Carry on.

Thank you, chef.

So, just so we're clear, nobody
can spend any more money, right?

I'm looking right at you, Richard.

- Chuck's buying droids.
- It was free.

- Fucking gratis.
- Look, I'm not hiring anybody else, okay?

Anybody else? Who'd you hire?

Nonnegotiables.

So...

What seems to be the biggest issue?

Whatever this is.

Holes. Like, holes.

Got it. Let's start with signals.

We're gonna communicate
without saying anything.

How do we do that?

If I'm making direct eye contact, and
I make this motion, you come to me.

How do I know you're looking at me?

Because he's looking right at you.

- Thank you, Gary.
- Got it.

- Chefs Carmen and Sydney.
- Chef.

Can you devote a daily 20-minute
meeting to discuss menu with all staff?

Yes, chef.

And then, paupiette of Dover sole
with artichoke and white truffle. Good?

Maybe again. Slower.

Next up is the wine list.

Gary, feeling good about pairings?

Yes, chef.

The years are getting tricky.

How are you doing with
what goes with what?

I'm getting better at it. It's
just the class is so technical.

A lot of stuff is just going over my head.

I have a friend I want you to see.

Okay. I got one.

Yes, Mr. Kalinowski.

What happens if a four-top cancels
day of, like, happened just fucking now?

- Shit.
- Fuck.

- It's fine. We're overbooked.
- We don't overbook.

I know. I do.

Computer, your chart suggests
midweek we average two no-shows a night,

so I'm gonna overbook by two tables.

What if everyone shows?

They call that a champagne problem.

Go, chuckie, go.

- What's this?
- Green means we're on time.

Red means we're behind.

- Green good, red bad.
- You got it.

Okay.

We're also gonna have a timing problem.

One's for the night. One's
for the turn. One's for the dish.

We need each course
out under three minutes.

You're my clock.

What do you say, chef?

Yes, chef.

Shit.

- Marcus, you prepped for tonight?
- Almost, chef.

Sounds like Marcus
needs extra hands at pastry.

- Can somebody back him up?
- I'm there.

Thank you, Tina.

Also, somebody stands
up, do not fold the napkin.

Okay? This is not a
passive-aggressive establishment.

That's good. I hate when
people fuck with our shit.

Exactly.

Don't slow down. You're almost there.

That kind of efficiency
doesn't seem cost efficient.

- We'll spend less and spend better.
- Like it in theory.

Richie, motherfucker. Our flower
budget is fucking crazy, okay?

I know, and I apologize, okay?

I blame it on my elegance.
I will happily reduce.

Yeah, okay, but, like, actually
reduce. Like, fucking reduce, reduce.

Natalie, I apologize. You don't need to
raise your fucking voice at me right now.

Don't order so many fucking flowers.

Sorry, baby.

- Okay, I won't.
- I'm sorry. I love you.

I love you too.

Wait. Are you mad at me?

Anybody got anything?

That's reassuring. I'm on expo.

Richie, Neil, Gary, Rene,
and Garrett, you're out front.

Everybody else, back here.

Seven hours to service,
two hours to beef window.

- Every second counts. Let's get to work.
- Chef!

You good, chef?

Yes, chef. Thank you.

- Door!
- Doors!

- Doors!
- Doors!

- Fire two hazelnuts, two no shellfish.
- Chef!

- Tina, waiting on two beef.
- Yes, chef.

We need to walk four
cavatelli. Fire cauliflower.

We need 12 panna cotta all day.

Almost there, chef. One minute.

And that's a paupiette of Dover sole.

Pick up six canapé.

Which has a beautiful,
flaky, delicate texture.

- Refire cauliflower.
- Yes, chef. Ready to go.

That is complemented beautifully

by the artichoke soubise
and sun choke puree below.

Fire three sardine. Fire two sardine.
Fire six romanesco, one no egg.

The board is fire.

Walk four cavatelli.
One gluten-free to p3.

Dragging eight cavatelli.

- Hands, please.
