00:00:01The
00:00:05Hot pan chef behind
00:00:19That's Troy Davenport. He's the chef in all the owners.
00:00:23The guy's a legend.
00:00:25I heard he has a short fuse.
00:00:27It's hard to make Julian partnered with him.
00:00:31Listen up, everybody.
00:00:33Charles DuPont, America's top food critic,
00:00:36is here to review the Davenport.
00:00:38His influence could lead us to a Michelin star.
00:00:42This is what we've all been working toward.
00:00:45We got this.
00:00:49Don't mess it up.
00:00:51Thanks for the pep talk.
00:01:03Baby.
00:01:04Hi.
00:01:06Look, I just want to say that I am literally so proud of you.
00:01:10And tonight really feels like my dream.
00:01:13Our dreams are finally coming true.
00:01:22You got this, honey.
00:01:24I'm hungry.
00:01:25I'm hungry.
00:01:26I'm hungry.
00:01:30I got this, honey.
00:01:31I'm hungry.
00:01:52I got this, honey.
00:01:53girlfriend making out with his business partner?
00:01:56Yeah.
00:01:57Didn't you go to culinary school with Troy?
00:01:59Yep.
00:01:59But he doesn't remember me.
00:02:02But I remember him alone.
00:02:04I was so in love with him, but he had a temper.
00:02:08He's gonna lose his shit about this.
00:02:22Wow.
00:02:22Is that Troy Davenport's girlfriend making out with his business partner?
00:02:27Yeah.
00:02:28I can't believe this.
00:02:31Troy Davenport is the most successful and famous chef in America.
00:02:37Alina definitely doesn't deserve him.
00:02:44Um, so sorry about this, sir.
00:02:46We'll get this taken care of?
00:02:47Yes, I'll make you another one right away.
00:02:49It's on the house.
00:02:50Thanks.
00:02:57Hey, chef.
00:02:59Charles DuPont is here.
00:03:00At table 13, he's asking for you personally.
00:03:03Great.
00:03:05Okay.
00:03:09Charles DuPont.
00:03:10Ah, the soon-to-be Michelin star man.
00:03:14It's a pleasure to finally meet you.
00:03:18Is everything all right?
00:03:24Oh, my God.
00:03:28They're so bad.
00:03:30Whoa, my God.
00:03:38Oh, my God.
00:03:45He's so bad.
00:03:46Oh.
00:03:46Oh.
00:03:48Oh!
00:03:48Oh, my God.
00:03:52What the fuck happened here?
00:03:57We are so sorry.
00:03:59Your meal's on the house tonight.
00:04:19Troy, get off of him!
00:04:25You're finished!
00:04:27You're right.
00:04:27I am finished.
00:04:28With both of you.
00:04:29Troy, wait.
00:04:30I can explain.
00:04:31It's over.
00:04:32This place.
00:04:32Step aside and talk about this.
00:04:34We are one step away from a Michelin star.
00:04:36Fuck your Michelin.
00:04:38Oh, careful, Troy.
00:04:40This restaurant is all you have.
00:04:42Yeah, you're making a big mistake.
00:04:44You walk out that door and I promise you'll never work in this town again.
00:04:48I guess this is all I have.
00:04:49I'm done.
00:04:55Fuck you.
00:05:02Oh, my gosh.
00:05:03That's Troy Davenport.
00:05:04Oh, fuck off.
00:05:06He's gorgeous.
00:05:12Fuck!
00:05:13Fuck!
00:05:14Fuck!
00:05:16I need a drink.
00:05:24That's Troy Davenport.
00:05:25I heard he just beat up his boss.
00:05:37Hey, where's my burger?
00:05:39Where's our food?
00:05:47Hey, what do I have to do to get a drink around here?
00:05:54Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:05:56Hector!
00:05:58Scandal rocks the culinary world.
00:06:00Ho, ho, orderly!
00:06:01As all charges have been dropped against Chef Troy Davenport.
00:06:08Hi, papa!
00:06:09Sources reveal the viral outburst stemmed from an affair between Julian Hartman, his business
00:06:15partner and his girlfriend, Elena Stewart, reporting live in Knoxville, I'm Abbey Pork.
00:06:22Yo, you see what went down across the street?
00:06:24Shit's crazy.
00:06:26Hector, put your phone away, okay?
00:06:28Customers are complaining they're not getting what they ordered.
00:06:30Well, if we had a system, we wouldn't be drowning every goddamn night.
00:06:33Whoa!
00:06:34Simmer down, drama queen.
00:06:37Call me drama queen one more time.
00:06:39I dare you, Codon.
00:06:41Enough!
00:06:42Okay, we're already behind.
00:06:44It's because you don't know how to run this kitchen.
00:06:47You know what?
00:06:50Troy's a genius.
00:06:51That's how you do it.
00:06:53Boom, tomorrow.
00:06:54Hector!
00:06:57I'm done!
00:07:01Where are you going?
00:07:07Hector!
00:07:09Hector, come on, please, please, please, please, please.
00:07:12I need you to stay, please.
00:07:14I need you.
00:07:15You need a lot of things, Corrine.
00:07:17I'm the least of your problems.
00:07:19I quit.
00:07:37What have you done?
00:07:38Your face is all over the news.
00:07:39I did what I had to do.
00:07:41Hey, where's my burger?
00:07:43Cole, seriously, what is taking so long?
00:07:46Are you sure you've thought this through?
00:07:48Julian will destroy you.
00:07:50I gotta go.
00:07:53Where's our food?
00:07:54Your salads are coming, ma'am.
00:07:56I'm so sorry for the delay.
00:07:58Okay.
00:08:00Okay.
00:08:11Okay, so he's gone, but we'll just have to deal without him.
00:08:16Fuck.
00:08:16Guys, I could really use some help here.
00:08:21Corrine.
00:08:21Corrine.
00:08:22We're in trouble.
00:08:23Don't be surprised if we end up comping meals tonight.
00:08:27Are you going to use some help?
00:08:32It's Brin.
00:08:33It's Brin.
00:08:36It's Brin.
00:08:54It's Brin.
00:09:01All right.
00:09:07Let me out.
00:09:18What is he doing here?
00:09:20You, turn the heat down.
00:09:21Huh?
00:09:22You're burning the scallops.
00:09:23Oh, shit.
00:09:25Everybody take a deep breath.
00:09:27We're only five tickets deep.
00:09:28Okay.
00:09:30Let me see the menu.
00:09:32It's pretty straightforward.
00:09:34Just be careful.
00:09:36Don't take Manny's knives, and if you go into the walk-in, don't slam the door, or it'll
00:09:41lock you out.
00:09:46Brin, pull it together.
00:09:47He's just an arrogant chef.
00:09:50Oh, God.
00:09:51He's hot.
00:09:51He's hot.
00:09:53He's hot.
00:09:55He's hot.
00:10:34Manny, remember to use your safety words.
00:10:37Sorry, Chef.
00:10:43You're a magician.
00:10:46Just tidying up some loose ends.
00:10:49Hey, Manny, stop working.
00:11:03Manny, not like that.
00:11:05You gotta control the pain.
00:11:08All right, Prince Charming.
00:11:09Let's name my first rodeo.
00:11:12On second thought.
00:11:15You got this.
00:11:16Hey, Table 3 is complaining it's too cold.
00:11:18And where is 7?
00:11:21Oh, thank you.
00:11:24Where's my food?
00:11:27I'm so sorry for the delay.
00:11:30How is everything now?
00:11:33How?
00:11:41Is everything okay now?
00:11:45Now we're talking.
00:11:47This burger's better than the Davenport across the street.
00:11:50And this one's half the price.
00:11:54Did y'all get a new chef?
00:11:56We did.
00:11:57We started 15 minutes ago.
00:12:14Well, you survived the night.
00:12:17Thanks to you.
00:12:18I didn't do much.
00:12:20You did everything.
00:12:25If it's not too personal, can I ask what happened at your restaurant tonight?
00:12:32I'm done.
00:12:35I caught my business partner with his hands on my girlfriend.
00:12:42Ten years building that place.
00:12:46Now I've lost everything.
00:12:48You didn't lose everything.
00:12:50You...
00:12:51You lost the parts of your life you didn't need.
00:12:54There's a difference.
00:12:56Look, tonight would have been a disaster if we didn't have you.
00:12:59You were...
00:13:00You were great.
00:13:02I just wanted to help.
00:13:04Well...
00:13:08If you want to keep on helping, I do need a replacement.
00:13:17Are you offering me a job?
00:13:20I am.
00:13:22I know we're not fine dining, but we make people happy.
00:13:28So...
00:13:31What do you say, Davenport?
00:13:50Julian, what the fuck is this?
00:13:52What are you talking about?
00:13:53It's a fresh start for us.
00:13:55I said...
00:13:56No, no, no, no, no.
00:13:57I appreciate the gesture, but we're not getting a new name.
00:14:00The Davenport is already established.
00:14:03Okay, we are on Charles de Ponce Raider.
00:14:05We're not going backwards.
00:14:07Now, the real question is, where do we find a world-renowned chef like Troy?
00:14:10Chefs are a dime a dozen.
00:14:12Let me worry about that.
00:14:14I'm grateful, bitch.
00:14:15What the fuck is Troy doing?
00:14:18Hmm.
00:14:20Looks like we aren't the only ones having an affair.
00:14:24Huh.
00:14:26Hey.
00:14:27They're not worth your energy.
00:14:32You're right.
00:14:33But you are.
00:14:35Okay, come on.
00:14:37Well, if Troy thinks he can set up shop across from us, then he's got another fucking thing
00:14:42coming.
00:14:43Listen, we will destroy them.
00:14:46Got it?
00:14:54I was thinking beet salad with citrus vinaigrette.
00:14:58Beets?
00:14:59For dinner service?
00:15:01They're heavy.
00:15:02They stain.
00:15:03They die on a plate if you so much as blink.
00:15:05Okay, Mr. Michelin.
00:15:08Almost.
00:15:09People love beets.
00:15:10People love cheesecake, too.
00:15:12It doesn't mean you need to put it underneath all of your entrees.
00:15:15You need to check your ego.
00:15:17I think this is why we weren't friends in culinary school.
00:15:20We were in the same culinary school?
00:15:22Exactly.
00:15:23Now we're on the same page.
00:15:25Last night you walked into my restaurant, lectured my staff, and reorganized my kitchen in what?
00:15:30We'd known each other, like, ten seconds?
00:15:33Lecture?
00:15:33Really?
00:15:34Manny almost burned your kitchen down.
00:15:36I'm just saying dial it back.
00:15:38And I'm just saying you should be saying thank you.
00:15:44Now I remember you.
00:15:46You were always so standoffish.
00:15:50Standoffish?
00:15:51Hmm?
00:15:52Hey, you.
00:15:54Hey.
00:15:56You're that chef that had the meltdown, right?
00:15:59What about it?
00:16:01Is this the girl you cheated on Elena with?
00:16:06She is a total downgrade.
00:16:17She is a total downgrade.
00:16:35You okay?
00:16:37Come on.
00:16:38You OK.
00:16:53Eh?
00:16:54Uh-huh.
00:16:55You heard me underneath.
00:16:56You better be careful now.
00:16:58With the way you're making me move.
00:17:00You're feeling it, too.
00:17:02You better be careful now, didn't think that it would be true, but now it's on you.
00:17:14Thank you, but what about you?
00:17:16I'm fine.
00:17:42We should get back.
00:17:45You're not getting these beans.
00:17:59Here you go.
00:18:01Meat salad, really.
00:18:04See, I'm not the only one.
00:18:07Just saying.
00:18:09Wait, I didn't know we were picking sides.
00:18:11Who's writing the checks around here?
00:18:13I do.
00:18:14I pick hers.
00:18:15That's what I thought.
00:18:17I like meats.
00:18:19They're earthy.
00:18:20Earthy means it tastes like dirt.
00:18:22Dirt with personality.
00:18:25Exactly.
00:18:26God help us.
00:18:47This isn't food.
00:18:48It's dirt.
00:18:51You know what?
00:18:55Get out of my restaurant.
00:18:58Now.
00:19:05This isn't food.
00:19:06It's dirt.
00:19:08You know what?
00:19:14Hey, uh, can somebody clean up this garbage?
00:19:18No.
00:19:18Hey, so, um, go buy yourself a new apron.
00:19:23You look like a maid.
00:19:26Get out of my restaurant.
00:19:27Now.
00:19:28Pick up your money and leave.
00:19:30Before I make you leave.
00:19:31Troy, we need to talk.
00:19:33Anything you need to say to Troy, you can say right here.
00:19:42Hey.
00:19:43How long have you and Troy been fucking?
00:19:46Excuse me?
00:19:48Let me get something straight.
00:19:50You walk into my restaurant after fucking his business partner and you're gonna accuse us?
00:19:55That's insane.
00:19:57Get out of my fucking restaurant before I press assault charges.
00:20:02Yeah, good luck with that.
00:20:04So, I only came over here to warn you because Julian is furious.
00:20:09And I hope the two of you are ready for war because once we are done with you, you won't
00:20:15have any business left.
00:20:16Are you threatening me?
00:20:18Bitch, are you deaf?
00:20:19Get out.
00:20:20Now.
00:20:21I will run you!
00:20:24You hear me?
00:20:30What did you ever see in her?
00:20:33She knows how to get what she wants.
00:20:35But she doesn't have what it takes.
00:20:37She's not you.
00:20:39You have horrible taste in women.
00:20:41You have no idea.
00:20:49Julian!
00:20:50Julian!
00:20:52Okay, Troy and the dumb fucking bitch, okay, they're not going anywhere.
00:20:56They just threatened us.
00:20:58Us!
00:20:59You need to figure something out now.
00:21:01Threaten us?
00:21:02You should have left him a long time ago.
00:21:05Bury both those assholes.
00:21:07You need to find a replacement now!
00:21:08Oh, I'm way ahead of you.
00:21:10Come with me.
00:21:18So, where is this magical replacement of yours?
00:21:23Who the hell is that?
00:21:25My name's Hector Ramirez.
00:21:27Okay, congratulations.
00:21:30Julian says you need a new star.
00:21:32Lucky for you, I'm the upgrade.
00:21:35Troy was the past.
00:21:36This is the future of the Davenport.
00:21:39Plus, he used to work for Corinne and knows all of her weaknesses.
00:21:43We had a system.
00:21:44We went to Troy and we got that right.
00:21:48I'm done!
00:21:50Is that so?
00:21:51Because from where I'm standing, it looks like we're fucked.
00:21:57Give me two weeks in this kitchen and I'll make everyone forget Troy ever existed.
00:22:01And that's the attitude we want.
00:22:04What do you say?
00:22:14Troy was the past.
00:22:15This is the future of the Davenport.
00:22:18What do you say?
00:22:25Fine.
00:22:26Deal.
00:22:27But I am watching you, okay?
00:22:30One wrong move and you're out.
00:22:33Good luck.
00:22:39She's a bitch.
00:22:40I love it.
00:22:54What happened?
00:23:00Julian hired Hector?
00:23:02They gotta be desperate if they hired that asshole.
00:23:05Man, that guy's got some serious SPE.
00:23:08Small PP energy.
00:23:10That guy took over half my knife for all and that shit was expensive.
00:23:13You're a total.
00:23:14Julian did this on purpose.
00:23:16He wanted Troy to look replaceable.
00:23:19Julian likes to play dirty.
00:23:22Two can play at that game.
00:23:24What are we gonna do?
00:23:26We...
00:23:28are gonna go to war.
00:23:48table twelve's up.
00:23:49Let's move.
00:23:55You could have asked.
00:23:59You need salt.
00:24:03Try it.
00:24:05When you look at me like that.
00:24:08It's got me all hot.
00:24:13A dash of fire and sex boiling over in the pot.
00:24:21I can't deny this burning passion between us.
00:24:26But you gotta cool your fire and let me cook.
00:24:31Damn it.
00:24:33Okay, we talked about this.
00:24:34And I want you taking over my kitchen.
00:24:37I'm taking this seriously.
00:24:40There's a difference.
00:24:53There's a difference.
00:24:54Grin, wait.
00:24:55Ma'am?
00:24:56Is two either gonna kiss or kill each other by Friday?
00:24:59100%.
00:25:00Both.
00:25:04Grin, wait.
00:25:05You made me look like a fool in front of my kitchen staff.
00:25:08That's not what happened.
00:25:09You were critiquing my food, saying it wasn't ready.
00:25:12I said the dish wasn't ready.
00:25:15I was just trying to help you.
00:25:16I don't want your help.
00:25:17Fine.
00:25:19I'll leave.
00:25:20No.
00:25:21You having a little lover's quarrel?
00:25:28You're finished!
00:25:31Say it again!
00:25:32I fucking did!
00:25:33Go ahead, Troy.
00:25:34Beat me up in front of your new girlfriend.
00:25:37She's not my fucking girlfriend!
00:25:43I hope I'm not interrupting, Mr. Depart.
00:25:59Troy Davenport.
00:26:01Troy Davenport.
00:26:03You know, I've been hearing quite a lot about you lately.
00:26:06Rumor has it you've taken up residence across the street.
00:26:09The rumors are true, Mr. Depart.
00:26:11Troy now works across the street at, uh, Corinne's Corner.
00:26:16Then, who is your head chef?
00:26:18Hector Ramirez.
00:26:19The chef.
00:26:19I couldn't wait to fire.
00:26:22Oh?
00:26:23I've never heard of him.
00:26:25There's a reason for that.
00:26:27How's that going, by the way?
00:26:29Great!
00:26:30Hector is five times the chef that Troy ever was.
00:26:34Well, it seems we have quite the rivalry brewing in this little neighborhood.
00:26:39I've been speaking with producers, and we've spent the past few weeks scouting the city's most talked-about kitchens.
00:26:46And everywhere I go, I keep hearing about this feud between the Davenport and Corinne's Corner.
00:26:54So, I've come to formally invite you both to compete.
00:26:59One week from tomorrow, Dash of Fire crowns the best restaurant in the city, televised nationwide.
00:27:07And frankly, rivalry like this makes excellent television.
00:27:13And I'll be one of the judges.
00:27:15The Davenport will always reign king here.
00:27:19So, what happens when we win?
00:27:20If you win.
00:27:21The winner gets national recognition on the show, and a recommendation from me for a Michelin star.
00:27:29What's the competition?
00:27:31Both restaurants will present one signature dish.
00:27:34And the community dish, something meaningful that's rooted in who you are.
00:27:43May the best restaurant win.
00:27:45It will.
00:27:53The competition is one week away.
00:27:55If we beat the Davenport, we set the record straight.
00:27:58Losing is not an option.
00:28:00Does that mean we have to make one of those fancy smell dishes?
00:28:03Eh, I hope not.
00:28:04No.
00:28:05We make what we know.
00:28:07And for this competition, only Troy and I will be competing against Hector.
00:28:12Luckily for us, we have the Davenport secret weapon.
00:28:17Get ready for a Michelin bootcamp.
00:28:19Critics like Charles Dupont want mastery, not novelty.
00:28:23They don't want to just taste something.
00:28:25They want an experience that tells a story.
00:28:30A dish that says who we are.
00:28:32Exactly.
00:28:33I've got some ideas.
00:28:35Maybe we can listen to my ideas for once.
00:28:39Well.
00:28:40That's enough for me for one day.
00:28:42I'm off the club.
00:28:43Goodnight.
00:28:46You two, behave.
00:28:47I'm leaving before this turns into a cage match.
00:28:55I'm all ears.
00:29:10Oh yeah!
00:29:11Hey!
00:29:12Vamos!
00:29:16Chef!
00:29:18Jeez, you scared the shit out of me.
00:29:20What's going on?
00:29:22You're leaving so soon?
00:29:23I thought we were done for the day.
00:29:25You are not done until we say you're done.
00:29:28I know, Ma'am.
00:29:29That's harsh.
00:29:30I've been putting in the work.
00:29:32Harsh?
00:29:32Harsh is when you almost ruin our reputation in front of Charles Dupont.
00:29:36Are you really gonna do that to us?
00:29:39You're on thin ice, hermano.
00:29:42So, here's how this is gonna work from now on.
00:29:44No more skipping out early.
00:29:45No more laziness.
00:29:47From now on, you follow our rules.
00:29:49Capiche?
00:29:50Yeah, what?
00:29:51Do you understand?
00:29:53Okay, okay, I hear you.
00:29:55Do you?
00:29:55Because right now you look like someone
00:29:57who needs to go home and think very carefully.
00:30:00You've done enough damage for one day, Hector,
00:30:03so go home, but you better come back.
00:30:06A better man tomorrow or don't bother coming back at all.
00:30:10Okay, I'll do better, I promise.
00:30:15Okay, get back to work, guys.
00:30:27We need a menu with heart.
00:30:29Heart is good, but this is still a competition.
00:30:31We need a winning dish.
00:30:33It needs to represent both of us.
00:30:36It needs to mean something.
00:30:37It will.
00:30:39Let's try both dishes.
00:30:40Fine, let's get the ingredients.
00:30:59Tell me you did not just let the door slam.
00:31:01What?
00:31:07Why is the door locked?
00:31:09The door locks automatically.
00:31:20The door locks automatically.
00:31:23Clay, this is really bad.
00:31:25How was I supposed to know?
00:31:27I would've fixed it if you would've told me already.
00:31:29I believe it was one of the first things that I told you.
00:31:36Yep, no service.
00:31:38Great, we're gonna be stuck here until tomorrow.
00:31:40Just take a deep breath.
00:31:41Take a deep breath?
00:31:43I can't be calm right now, okay?
00:31:45It's freezing in here, and it made matters worse.
00:31:48We still don't have a dish yet.
00:31:49I mean, they're both wrong.
00:31:51I...
00:31:51They're not wrong.
00:31:53They're just...
00:31:54not us.
00:31:56Yet.
00:31:57Us?
00:32:00It has to be something that we build together.
00:32:12Here, you're freezing.
00:32:13I'm fine.
00:32:17I know I push you.
00:32:19Constantly.
00:32:23But you stood up for me in front of DuPont,
00:32:27and you didn't have to do that.
00:32:32I want you to take a deep breath.
00:32:40I'm not a saint Korean.
00:32:41I'm not a romantic.
00:32:43I don't see pretty things.
00:32:45I'm used to being in charge of everything,
00:32:47the kitchen, menu, myself.
00:32:49But when it comes to you, I just get in my head,
00:32:54and the only thing I want to do is to...
00:33:05Sorry, I just needed to shake you up.
00:33:38There you are.
00:33:40Hey, are you guys still here?
00:33:42You left the front door wide open.
00:33:59I'm not even going to ask.
00:34:00Uh, we were just trying to keep warm.
00:34:03All right, Pinocchio, let's get out of here
00:34:04before we all freeze to death.
00:34:11Why don't you two try the beach next time,
00:34:13and I'm not dragging you popsicles out of there again.
00:34:15Okay, this stays between us.
00:34:17Already erased from my memory.
00:34:19Troy?
00:34:23Where's my notebook?
00:34:24I left it right here.
00:34:35You have something to show us?
00:34:37Yes, sir.
00:34:38I thought about what you both said last night,
00:34:40and it really inspired me.
00:34:42I stayed up late thinking of new ideas
00:34:44that I think you'll love.
00:34:46Show us what you got, Hector.
00:34:48Dish number one, spring tilapia.
00:34:57This is really good.
00:35:01It reminds me of the one that Troy used to make.
00:35:03But better.
00:35:04It's actually excellent.
00:35:08You got anything else?
00:35:13Dish number two, and my personal favorite,
00:35:15pasta carbonara.
00:35:24Oh my god.
00:35:27Oh my god.
00:35:28Hector, what the hell did you do?
00:35:38Troy's notebook.
00:35:39See?
00:35:40I'm not as dumb as I look.
00:35:41Apparently not.
00:35:44You know, if you keep this up, we might actually have a shot at winning.
00:36:07I know I've left it here.
00:36:35I think this is why we weren't friends in culinary school.
00:36:38We were in St. Culinary School.
00:36:44Hey, you know, I was just thinking about last night.
00:36:47Hey, hey, what's wrong?
00:36:50You didn't just pick this location.
00:36:54Troy, you positioned it.
00:36:57I can't explain.
00:37:01I can't explain, okay?
00:37:03It was a strategic problem.
00:37:04I'm a chef.
00:37:05You're studying me.
00:37:07Did Julian put you up to this?
00:37:10Don't get it twisted, okay?
00:37:11I never planned on us.
00:37:13That's the problem.
00:37:14I trusted you.
00:37:16I thought last night meant something.
00:37:18It did.
00:37:19It does, please.
00:37:21Then why does it feel like you've been sharpening a knife behind my back?
00:37:24Troy.
00:37:27Troy!
00:37:37Wait!
00:37:38Wait!
00:37:40Try!
00:37:48Uh-oh.
00:37:49Looks like there's trouble in paradise.
00:37:51Now's our time to strike.
00:37:53What's the move?
00:37:54Need to make a call.
00:37:57Hey, it's me.
00:37:59I'd like to report a restaurant.
00:38:01And numerous health code violations.
00:38:04Yeah, Corinne's corner on Main Street.
00:38:06Shut it down.
00:38:08Make it clean.
00:38:09You got less than an hour.
00:38:11Hurry.
00:38:13Who was that?
00:38:14A friend of mine.
00:38:17I don't know, Julian.
00:38:18This feels illegal.
00:38:19Like, this could really bury them.
00:38:24That's the point.
00:38:26Right.
00:38:37Hey.
00:38:38You scared me.
00:38:41I wasn't going anywhere.
00:38:43I just needed some space.
00:38:45Please, Troy.
00:38:46Just let me explain.
00:38:49I'm listening.
00:38:51Look, I know beat Troy Davenport sounds brutal.
00:38:57And I did write it, but not for the reasons that you think.
00:39:01In culinary school, every guy wanted to be you.
00:39:04Okay, you could turn an ordinary dish into something unforgettable.
00:39:10I watched you cook, and I thought you were a master.
00:39:15So yeah, I wrote beat Troy Davenport.
00:39:18Not because I wanted to destroy you.
00:39:22I needed something to chase.
00:39:25You're the reason I opened up my restaurant.
00:39:28And took out a loan I couldn't afford.
00:39:33I've been working 16 and a half hour days trying to be half as good as you.
00:39:40Promise me something.
00:39:43That we will stop trying to be who everyone wants us to be.
00:39:46And we'll just be ourselves.
00:39:47Together.
00:39:50Don't stop running.
00:40:14Running out of hands here.
00:40:18Man, this shit is ridiculous.
00:40:20Really?
00:40:23Oh, come on!
00:40:25Table 9 wants their steak well done.
00:40:27Table 7 wants bread.
00:40:28We don't have.
00:40:29And Table 13 is threatening to write us a bad review.
00:40:31Where the hell are they?
00:40:34Hi, I'm so sorry.
00:40:35I'm so sorry. Thank you so much for your patience.
00:40:36Hi, I know. I thank you.
00:40:38Your drinks will be right out shortly.
00:40:39Hi, ladies. Thank you so much for your patience.
00:40:41I know, I know.
00:40:42Hi, I'll see you in just a moment.
00:40:43I'm so sorry.
00:40:44Take your time, honey.
00:40:56I'm so sorry.
00:41:02Oh, my God.
00:41:03What's going on?
00:41:04Your restaurant is crawling with roaches.
00:41:07What?
00:41:08What?
00:41:09No.
00:41:10Oh, oh, roaches.
00:41:11That's no good.
00:41:12See, my name is John Koopa.
00:41:14I'm the health inspector.
00:41:16Yeah.
00:41:17Work for health and sanitation there, people.
00:41:19And I'm seeing a lot of improper activity.
00:41:22I'm seeing rat feces, roach activity.
00:41:25This is no good.
00:41:26Whoa.
00:41:27That's impossible.
00:41:28I literally just cleaned that.
00:41:29Hey, that's enough out of you twos, okay?
00:41:31Any one of them violations warrants an immediate shutdown.
00:41:35No, no, no, no.
00:41:36Please, sir, don't do this.
00:41:37We don't have roaches.
00:41:38Uh-huh.
00:41:38That's what the last three restaurants said also.
00:41:41Oh, God.
00:41:42Mmm.
00:41:42Sorry, toots.
00:41:43Unfortunately, it looks like you guys are temporarily closed.
00:41:47Eh?
00:41:48What?
00:41:48Sorry.
00:41:49Oh, my God.
00:41:50Have a good day.
00:41:52Yes.
00:41:54I don't know what just happened.
00:42:10Oh, thank God.
00:42:11Please tell me that this is a dream and that you've brought coffee.
00:42:15What happened?
00:42:17We got hit hard.
00:42:19That big-headed, goosey-ass inspector came while y'all were gone.
00:42:23We got roaches and rat poo-poo.
00:42:25Things I know went there two hours earlier.
00:42:27We had to send every table home.
00:42:30Our customers were posting videos.
00:42:32Somebody already tagged us as Ratatouille, but the horror reboot.
00:42:36We didn't do any of this.
00:42:38Yeah, we know.
00:42:40That goofy-ass inspector...
00:42:44Ratfishes.
00:42:45...closed us down.
00:42:46Made all of our customers leave.
00:42:47Yeah, it's costing us $1,800 bucks in sales, too, because we hit the comp everybody.
00:42:51Not to mention the fines.
00:42:53This wasn't an accident.
00:42:55This was Julian.
00:42:56He waited till we let our guard down.
00:42:58This is my fault.
00:42:59Hey.
00:43:00Hey, Troy.
00:43:01Don't do anything stupid.
00:43:02Troy.
00:43:03Troy.
00:43:04Wait!
00:43:11Troy.
00:43:14Troy, what are we doing?
00:43:16Taking you on your first date.
00:43:17Date?
00:43:18Right now?
00:43:19Sir, um, do you have a reservation?
00:43:22Yeah, Julian saved this table for us.
00:43:26This is absolutely insane.
00:43:29I told you.
00:43:30Next time you were here, dinner was on the house.
00:43:32What the hell is doing here?
00:43:34Trying to cause a scene, probably.
00:43:37No, thank you.
00:43:38We'll have the whole menu.
00:43:40Two of everything.
00:43:42Two of everything.
00:43:43You heard right?
00:43:47Are you sure we should be doing this?
00:43:49Relax.
00:43:50We could have him thrown in prison for the stunt that they pulled earlier with the health inspector.
00:43:54How do you know that was a stunt?
00:43:56It's not signed.
00:43:59Right out of Julian's playbook.
00:44:01I think I know exactly what's going on.
00:44:08Chef Ramirez, we need two of everything for table 12.
00:44:12Seriously?
00:44:13How big is the party?
00:44:14Two.
00:44:15Three.
00:44:16Oh, hell no.
00:44:17That's too much food.
00:44:18I'll talk to them.
00:44:20Chefs, hold down the kitchen.
00:44:21Yes, chef.
00:44:32What are you two doing here?
00:44:34Is this some kind of sick joke?
00:44:36What's the matter?
00:44:37Do you think you can just come here and boss me around?
00:44:40We ordered our two.
00:44:41Who orders two of everything?
00:44:44We did.
00:44:45Is that a problem?
00:44:50Joe, you two are the reason the governor of Tennessee and his wife won't be sitting at their favorite table
00:44:56tonight.
00:44:57Well, this is an absolutely lovely table.
00:45:01They're fucking with us.
00:45:02Play along.
00:45:04I heard your restaurant was on the verge of being shut down for failing that inspection.
00:45:08You really shouldn't believe everything you hear.
00:45:10And the next time your friend sticks this on the door, make sure he signs it.
00:45:15I don't know what you're talking about, but I'll be happy to throw this out for you.
00:45:20While you're at it, do you mind getting me a glass of wine?
00:45:22We'll have a bottle of Opus.
00:45:23Mmm.
00:45:24It's a $1,200 bottle.
00:45:26Great.
00:45:27We'll have two.
00:45:48This is my signature rare steak.
00:45:52Cooked medium well.
00:45:54Bold interpretation.
00:45:56Take it back before it starts to cry.
00:45:58Hmm.
00:45:58Just a minute.
00:46:05Ooh.
00:46:06My signature recipe.
00:46:08Somehow more glutinous and disgusting than I thought possible.
00:46:13Remarkable.
00:46:14Can you please take it back?
00:46:23That is my Branzino technique.
00:46:26Cooked by someone who obviously hates fish.
00:46:29We're good.
00:46:33Chef, tables 3, 9, and 16 are not happy with the wait.
00:46:36We'll send them a free fucking dessert.
00:46:37We're trying our best here.
00:46:40Fuck!
00:46:41Fucking fuck!
00:46:42How am I?
00:46:43Chef, hurry the fuck up!
00:46:44Come on.
00:46:47Ben, Ben!
00:46:48Enough is enough!
00:46:52Enough is enough.
00:46:54It looks like the trigger are having fun.
00:46:58More than you could imagine.
00:46:59You've made your point.
00:47:01Are you done?
00:47:02You're disrupting our other guests.
00:47:06Are we disrupting you guys?
00:47:10Hmm.
00:47:12They said no.
00:47:17You really think you're winning here?
00:47:18If this were a game,
00:47:20I would have already won.
00:47:22We'll go easy on you.
00:47:25Opus tends to sob and blow.
00:47:27You are...
00:47:28You are not welcome, you...
00:47:33You know, I'd be careful about pushing us out,
00:47:36especially after a little stunt
00:47:37that you and Julian pulled earlier.
00:47:43I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:47:46I didn't do anything.
00:47:48You're a terrible actor.
00:47:50And a worse criminal,
00:47:51it makes you guys a good match.
00:47:53The health inspector coming to the door.
00:47:57The spoiled food, the roaches.
00:47:59It's all on camera.
00:48:02You're bluffing.
00:48:04Maybe.
00:48:05Maybe not.
00:48:08Ask yourself, can you afford for me to not be telling the truth right now?
00:48:12I mean, with the competition days away.
00:48:22Exactly.
00:48:22Go ahead.
00:48:24Well, thank you so much for the free meal.
00:48:28It was awful.
00:48:30Tell Hector he can keep that recipe he stole.
00:48:33That's on camera, too.
00:48:37Everyone, enjoy your dinner.
00:48:39And make sure to tip your waitstaff.
00:48:41They're severely underpaid.
00:48:55Okay.
00:48:56We need to figure out our signature dish.
00:48:58For the competition.
00:49:00Troy, nothing to show you guys.
00:49:02We'll leave the way.
00:49:04No.
00:49:05This is your kitchen.
00:49:08Your name's on the door.
00:49:09The dish has to come from you.
00:49:12Authenticity is the only way we win this.
00:49:16But people expect...
00:49:18Sure, they expect me.
00:49:20That's why we're not doing my dish.
00:49:24Chef.
00:49:27You got this.
00:49:32It's okay.
00:49:40Then we're going to do the burger.
00:49:42It's the reason I fell in love with cooking in the first place.
00:49:45That's the answer.
00:49:47Classic.
00:49:49If they want to know who we are,
00:49:51we'll show them the dish that opened our doors.
00:49:56Let's make it perfect.
00:50:16I can't do this.
00:50:26Oh, Jesus.
00:50:28This is awful.
00:50:29Oh, God.
00:50:30Please tell me you're not cooking this shit for the competition.
00:50:33Hector, get your shit together.
00:50:35This is fucking embarrassing.
00:50:36Stick with these recipes,
00:50:39or you're out of here.
00:50:47What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:50:49Those recipes are going to help us win this competition.
00:50:57Okay, now, what are you doing?
00:51:00My abuela used to make this every Sunday.
00:51:04Pozole.
00:51:07Fed eight of us on $10.
00:51:10Food that meant something.
00:51:13Nobody gives a fuck about your abuela.
00:51:16We need a dish that represents the Davenport.
00:51:21Maybe that's where your food here has no soul.
00:51:23Excuse me?
00:51:26You want a winning dish?
00:51:29Here it is.
00:51:30The first thing I cook here that actually feels like me.
