00:10Let's see how this plays out.
00:16Are you going to order something?
00:17Uh, hi. Good morning to you too.
00:20Could I maybe get a menu?
00:21You can check out our menu online on your phone.
00:24I'll come back in a bit to take your order.
00:26Right.
00:27Could I maybe get something to drink while I look it over?
00:29You can't just wait to put it together with your order?
00:32Just wanted to get a coffee while I checked the menu, that's all.
00:35Fine. I'll bring it out in a bit.
00:36Thanks.
00:50Can I help you?
00:51Good morning.
00:52I'm sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if I could maybe get a glass of water,
00:56maybe something small to eat.
00:59I don't have much, but I promise I'll be on my way after.
01:02We don't serve people like you here.
01:04This is a respectable place, not somewhere for, well, your kind.
01:08Please, I'm not asking for much.
01:10Just something small, maybe a pastry or something.
01:13I'm not trying to bother anyone.
01:15You're already bothering people just by standing here.
01:17Why don't you find somewhere else to go, like a soup kitchen?
01:20Please, just a small meal and some water.
01:22That's all I need.
01:23I already told you, we don't serve people like you.
01:26I suggest you leave before I make you leave.
01:28I'm not trying to cause trouble, I just need a little help.
01:31I promise, I'll be out of here soon.
01:33You're not getting anything here.
01:34How many times do I have to say it?
01:39You need anything else, ma'am, or you just plan to sit here?
01:42No, I'm fine.
01:43Just a coffee whenever you get a chance.
01:45Well, if you're going to stay, you need to order something.
01:47We don't just let people sit here all day with just one drink.
01:50I'll give you five minutes to decide what you want.
01:52If you haven't ordered by then, you need to leave.
01:55Wow.
01:56I understand.
01:57I'll think about it.
01:58Clock's ticking.
02:00Five minutes.
02:01You know, sir, if I may, you're being pretty harsh to that man over there.
02:06Is everything okay?
02:07What?
02:08Who, the homeless guy?
02:09I don't owe him anything.
02:10He's ruining the vibes in here.
02:12Okay, but don't you think you should be a little kinder to him?
02:16I mean, we all go through rough times, right?
02:18Maybe he just needs some help.
02:19Look, lady, I don't go into your workplace and tell you how to do your job.
02:23Why don't you just sip your coffee and leave the restaurant management to me?
02:27I'm just saying a bit of kindness goes a long way.
02:30Kindness?
02:30I don't have time to show kindness to every random bum that comes in off the street.
02:34I'm looking out for my restaurant so that ungrateful patrons like you will have a good experience.
02:39So keep your ideas to yourself.
02:41I have a restaurant to run.
02:43Wow, that seems a bit unfair.
02:45Yeah?
02:46Well, life's not fair, is it?
02:48Focus on figuring out what you want to order and get out of my restaurant.
02:55Sir, please.
02:57I'm not trying to cause any problems.
02:59I'm just really, really hungry.
03:01If you have anything extra laying around and then I'll be on my way.
03:05Why are you still here?
03:06I already told you, you're not getting anything.
03:09Do I need to call security or are you going to leave on your own?
03:11I understand you're frustrated, but I really don't have anywhere else to go right now.
03:16You don't have anywhere else to go?
03:18Not my problem.
03:19You're not my responsibility and you're certainly not getting anything from this place.
03:22Now get out.
03:23I'm just asking for a bit of kindness.
03:26Oh my God.
03:27You two with the kindness.
03:28You really think you're going to get kindness here?
03:30This is a business, not some charity.
03:32You're not welcome here, so leave.
03:34Now.
03:35Please.
03:36Are you deaf?
03:38I said leave!
03:39I'm not going to tell you again.
03:40If you don't walk out that door right now, I'm calling security to drag you out.
03:49Robert.
03:52Oh.
03:53It's you.
03:54Do you need something else?
03:55I told you that-
03:57No, Robert.
03:57I don't need anything.
03:58What I need is to have a conversation with you.
04:00Do you know who I am?
04:03Um, I'm sorry.
04:04I mean, you're a customer, right?
04:06I'm more than just a customer, Robert.
04:09My name is Sarah Morgan.
04:10I'm the CEO and owner of this restaurant chain.
04:13This is my business, and right now I've been watching how you've been treating my friend.
04:17Here.
04:17Mark.
04:18Wait.
04:19You-
04:20You're the CEO.
04:21This is your friend.
04:23You're right, lady.
04:24How about you back off?
04:25I'm serious, Robert.
04:26Oh yeah?
04:27Well, let's see some proof then that you're really the CEO.
04:30All right.
04:31If I wasn't the CEO, how would I know that you've been working with us for two years now?
04:35And in that time, we've received over 20 complaints about the way you treat customers.
04:39How would I know that in your second week here as manager, you almost caused this location
04:43to shut down because you got into a huge fight with one of our customers?
04:48Oh my god.
04:49You really are.
04:50I didn't-
04:51I didn't know.
04:52I'm sorry.
04:53I didn't realize-
04:53If I had known-
04:54That's exactly the problem, Robert.
04:56You didn't know.
04:57You saw a man walk in here who didn't fit your idea of a paying customer, and you immediately
05:02treated him like he didn't belong.
05:03You dismissed him.
05:05You insulted him.
05:06And why?
05:06Because of the way he looks.
05:08No, no.
05:08That's not what I meant.
05:10I was just trying-
05:11Trying to keep the place running smoothly.
05:13I thought he might be causing trouble or making other customers feel uncomfortable.
05:17I didn't mean anything by it.
05:18You didn't mean anything by it?
05:20Robert, I watched everything.
05:22From the moment Mark walked in, you treated him like he wasn't worth your time.
05:25You wouldn't even give him a glass of water?
05:28And because you realize he's connected to me now, you suddenly want to explain yourself?
05:32I swear, I was just doing my job.
05:35I didn't know he was your friend.
05:36I thought he was just some homeless person looking for a free handout.
05:39I wasn't trying to do anything.
05:41I was just trying to keep the place respectable.
05:43We can't have people like him.
05:45I-
05:45I mean, we have standards, and I just-
05:47Stop right there.
05:48People like what?
05:50Robert, people who aren't dressed in all designer clothes?
05:53People who are struggling, is that how you decide who's worthy of respect?
05:57Because let me tell you something, this is not how this business is run.
06:00I didn't mean it like that.
06:01I was just trying to make sure other customers weren't uncomfortable because of him.
06:05You have to understand, I didn't mean to be rude.
06:08I was just doing what I thought was best for the restaurant.
06:10Your restaurant!
06:11What's best for the restaurant, is treating every single person who walks through that
06:16door with respect.
06:17Regardless of what they look like, or how much money you think they have.
06:21That's the standard.
06:22Not some idea of keeping the place respectable by pushing people away.
06:26I-
06:27I just-
06:29I just didn't know.
06:30I didn't think.
06:31If I had known he was with you, I wouldn't have said anything.
06:34I didn't mean to offend anyone.
06:36I swear!
06:37What you did was wrong.
06:38Plain and simple.
06:39And this isn't the first time I've heard about you treating people like this.
06:41Today I saw it for myself.
06:45Please, Sarah.
06:47I've worked hard.
06:48I've managed this place for a long time.
06:50I know what I'm doing.
06:51I just-
06:52I made a mistake, okay?
06:54I'll fix it.
06:54I swear, I'll fix it!
06:56This isn't just about a mistake, Robert.
06:58This is about how you've been running this place.
07:01How many people have you pushed away because of how they looked?
07:04How many people have you made feel like they didn't belong here?
07:06That's not the kind of culture I've built here.
07:09I-
07:10I didn't mean to hurt anyone.
07:12I just thought I was protecting the restaurant's image.
07:15You know how it is.
07:16People judge places by who's inside.
07:18I was just trying to keep everything in order.
07:20It's too late, Robert.
07:23Your behavior today shows me that you're not the right person to manage this restaurant anymore.
07:28You've lost sight of what really matters.
07:30And that's why you're no longer working here.
07:33Wait.
07:34What?
07:35You're firing me?
07:36Just like that?
07:37After everything I've done for this place?
07:38Yes, I am.
07:40I've been hearing complaints about your attitude for a while now.
07:43Today I saw it firsthand.
07:44You've let your power go to your head.
07:46This restaurant is about kindness, respect, and treating everyone with dignity.
07:50And you've failed to live up to that.
07:53Please, don't do this.
07:55I'll change.
07:55I can do better.
07:56I'll treat everyone with respect.
07:57I'll fix everything.
07:58Just give me another chance.
08:00I've been working with this company for years.
08:02Don't throw that away over one bad day.
08:05It's not just one bad day, Robert.
08:07This is how you've been running things for a long time.
08:10You've been given chances, and you've chosen to ignore them.
08:13I can't trust you to change overnight, and I can't risk letting you continue to represent this company in such
08:17a negative way.
08:20I don't know what to say.
08:21I didn't think it would end like this.
08:23I thought...
08:25I thought I was doing the right thing.
08:27No, you were doing the easy thing.
08:28The right thing is showing kindness and compassion for others, even when it's not easy.
08:33That's the lesson you've missed, and that's why your time here is over.
08:39You know what?
08:40This is so stupid, and you're going to regret this.
08:43All the time and effort I put into this place, it's all going to come crashing down without me.
08:47You'll see.
08:48Yeah, I highly doubt that.
08:50Pack your things and get out of here.
08:52You're going to be sorry.
08:53I'm going to make sure everyone knows what a terrible restaurant this is.
08:57Enough.
08:57Get out now.
09:06Well, that was something.
09:08Mark, I'm sorry you had to go through all of that.
09:11It should have never happened.
09:12I know we planned this little test, but you deserve more than what you were just put through.
09:16It's okay, Sarah.
09:18I knew it was part of the plan, but honestly, I didn't expect it to go quite like that.
09:23You handled it well, though.
09:24I appreciate that, but no one should ever be treated the way Robert treated you.
09:28People deserve respect, no matter their situation.
09:31That's why your restaurants are so successful, you know.
09:34You've always cared about the little things that other places ignore.
09:37I'm just glad to have played a little part in making that happen.
09:40That's exactly why I had to make sure Robert was dealt with.
09:43I can't have someone like him running my restaurant.
09:45It goes against everything I've built.
09:47You know, this isn't exactly how I imagined my day going, but I've got to say, I'm glad
09:52I was part of this little test.
09:55Pays to have a friend who's an actor, huh?
09:58You're a great actor, Mark.
10:00Well, I'm glad you were part of it, too.
10:01And I'm even more glad we caught this before it got worse.
10:05Now we can move forward and the restaurant will be better because of it.
10:08But enough about him.
10:10Let's talk about what you'd like to eat, for real.
10:12Anything on the menu catch your eye?
10:14I wasn't expecting the VIP treatment, Sarah.
10:16I truly was just hoping for a glass of water and maybe a sandwich or something.
10:20Water and a sandwich?
10:21Come on, you deserve way more than that.
10:23Look at the menu.
10:23Pick whatever you want.
10:24This meal's on me.
10:25All right.
10:25Well, if you insist, I'll go for the steak.
10:29You happy now?
10:29Now we're talking.
10:30Steak it is.
10:31And I'll make sure they bring you the best one we've got.
10:35All in a hard day's work.
10:36Here's to making sure we always do what's right, no matter who's watching.
10:40I'll high five to that.
