Transcript
00:00Frank, I remember the restaurant made a solid $250,000 in net profit this year.
00:05Are you telling me my share is only $7,000?
00:09This is my place, and I put up the capital.
00:12People come here to eat or to eat at my restaurant.
00:14You're just the cook.
00:15Seven grand is more than fair.
00:18But the smoked pork recipe was passed down from my grandfather.
00:21I've been running the kitchen by myself from start to finish.
00:24And that new chef you just hired?
00:26He's pulling down $70,000 a year!
00:29Enough!
00:29Smoked pork is everywhere.
00:31You think it's special?
00:31I gave you a great platform.
00:33Don't get too full of yourself.
00:34You're almost 40.
00:35How can you compare yourself to that young guy?
00:37He graduated from a real culinary school.
00:39He turns out creative dishes left and right way better than your old tired family recipes.
00:43I'm sure he could do a lot better than you.
00:48Robert, please help me.
00:50My restaurant is about to go under.
00:51I know you have that smoked pork recipe.
00:53And I know how good a cook you are.
00:55Will you come be my head chef?
00:57I'll give you shares.
00:58When we make money, you get a cut.
01:00I'm begging you, please!
01:03All right.
01:04I'm in.
01:07That's amazing, buddy.
01:08I don't even know how to thank you.
01:10Am I wrong, Robert?
01:11Look around this restaurant.
01:12The bowls, the cups, the plates, they're all mine.
01:14What have you done besides cook?
01:16Don't forget, if it weren't for me, you'd still be stuck in that little dump of a diner scraping by.
01:19Don't feel sorry for yourself.
01:21With your skills, I can find a cook in any diner in Queens for $2,000 a month.
01:24I give you room and board and a $7,000 bonus.
01:26You should be grateful.
01:28I should be grateful.
01:30Great.
01:31Just great.
01:49Robert, you see the pipes busted?
01:51Call someone to fix it.
01:52Front the repair cost and I'll pay you back later.
01:54Front it again?
01:54You still haven't paid me back for the propane gas last time.
01:59All right, all right.
02:00It's no big deal.
02:01We're brothers.
02:02We'll settle it all later.
02:02I've got things to do.
02:03Just go handle it.
02:10Sir, the pipe is fixed.
02:14Great.
02:15Thank you so much.
02:22Robert, we're short on the smoked ingredients.
02:23Get to the wholesale market early and buy them.
02:25Must be fresh.
02:26The customers are waiting.
02:29We're short on the pain.
02:31We're short on the
02:59Robert, I remember everything you've done for me
03:02We grew up together
03:04Over 30 years of friendship
03:05I would never treat you unfairly
03:08Don't worry
03:09Once the money comes in, we'll split it 50-50
03:15Frank, I've been doing the work of three people
03:18365 days a year, no days off
03:21Shopping for ingredients, prepping the food
03:23Doing all the cooking myself
03:25I stayed up late, night after night, working on the smoked dishes
03:28Sleeping less than four hours a day
03:30On Christmas Day, I had just gotten home
03:31And was about to sit down to Christmas dinner with my wife and kids
03:34When you called
03:34You said you'd taken a last-minute order for a family gathering
03:37And told me to get back to the restaurant immediately
03:39I drove three hours to get there
03:41Worked all night, and after cleaning up the kitchen
03:43It was already 2 a.m.
03:44I didn't even get a chance to say Merry Christmas to my kids
03:46But you? You went home to your family hours ago
03:48Last month, you took an order for a thousand smoked gift boxes
03:52You said the client needed them urgently
03:54I worked around the clock for three days and three nights without a single wink of sleep
03:57I almost killed myself
03:59Frank, after everything I gave this year, I'm worth $7,000?
04:04Robert, we grew up together
04:05Talking about money like this is bad for our relationship
04:09I rescued you from that little dump of a diner
04:12And made you a partner in my restaurant
04:14You should be grateful to me
04:15My old diner wasn't much, but I was clearing $100,000 a year
04:19Coming here sounds fancy
04:20Restaurant partner, but I'm working a hundred times harder
04:22All the grunt work, all the dirty jobs, they're mine
04:25$7,000 is my share, and he thinks I should be grateful
04:28Alright, alright, why draw such a clear line between us?
04:31It's not like the restaurant is shutting down
04:32Next year, I'll give you a bigger cut, I promise
04:34It's almost Independence Day
04:36We're having a get-together with the guys tonight
04:38You go prepare properly, don't embarrass me
04:40On Independence Day, a tour group has a reservation to eat at the restaurant
04:44300 people
04:46The client also ordered a thousand smoked gift boxes
04:49You need to have them ready ahead of time
04:54Got it
04:55I already took a $30,000 deposit
04:58If I default, I'll have to pay triple
05:00Don't screw me over on this
05:09I can't even bring myself to call Diana
05:12I can't tell her that after a whole year of hoping
05:14Our share is only $7,000
05:17I barely spent any time with her this year
05:20All my energy went into the restaurant
05:22And now
05:23$7,000
05:26365 days
05:27That's less than 20 bucks a day
05:29Some partner I am
05:30Cheap labor
05:39Robert, what is this $7,000 deposit that just hit our account?
05:44That's my share
05:46You're joking, right?
05:47Frank said the restaurant cleared $250,000 this year
05:50He gave you $7,000?
05:52He said the place is his
05:53And he put up the capital
05:54I'm just a worker
05:56$7,000 is already pretty good
06:13A worker?
06:14I told you not to go in with him
06:15You worked yourself to the bone every day
06:17And after all that, this is what you get?
06:19You could walk into any diner in Queens as a cook
06:20And make $80,000 a year
06:22What are you even doing this for?
06:25So are you going to keep running this restaurant with him?
06:30I haven't decided yet
06:32Robert, I respect whatever you decide
06:35But remember this
06:37It doesn't matter how much money it is
06:39You live by your craft
06:41Your recipe, your skills
06:43They deserve respect
06:44They deserve better
06:48I know
06:49Thank you, Diana
06:56Robert?
06:57He thinks he deserves to sit at the same table with us?
07:05I give him good food
07:07And a place to stay
07:08And he still thinks $7,000 is too little?
07:11The guy doesn't even have a real chef certification
07:14And he dares to compare himself to the new chef I hired?
07:18I'm the only one who would even employ him
07:20I opened the restaurant
07:21I put up the money
07:22I'm the boss
07:23He's just a cook
07:24And he thinks he deserves to split the profits 50-50 with me?
07:28He has no idea what it means to be an employee
07:31Right?
07:32The nerve of that guy
07:33Robert just doesn't know his place
07:35Frank, you're a big shot now
07:37He's just a lousy cook with no sense of boundaries
07:40Later, we'll knock him down a peg
07:42Let him know who's the boss and who's the hired help
07:4730 years of friendship
07:48Growing up together
07:49And in their eyes, it's worth nothing
07:51I'm not his brother
07:52I'm just a lousy hired cook
07:54With no gratitude
07:54No sense of boundaries
07:55And no idea of my place
07:57What is that $7,000 really?
07:59A bonus?
08:00Wages?
08:00Or just charity he threw at me?
08:05Robert, it smells delicious
08:06You worked hard cooking all that food
08:08Sit down
08:10That's what he's paid for
08:11What's so hard about it?
08:12Frank, I think you're being too nice to him
08:15This is a get-together for us
08:17He's a cook
08:18What's he doing at the table?
08:19Exactly
08:20Robert, I heard you got $7,000
08:23Frank's been more than good to you
08:24The job market is terrible right now
08:26You're lucky to have work at all
08:28And he's giving you room and board on top of that
08:29You should be grateful
08:31Go on, toast him
08:35Frank, let me toast you
08:36Robert, don't you know any manners?
08:38Who do you think you're calling Frank?
08:40That's your boss
08:40The man who puts food on your table
08:42Back in the day, you'd have to kneel to toast him
08:46Robert, don't take it personally
08:47We're all friends here
08:49Just joking around
08:50No harm meant
08:54It's fine
08:54I don't mind
08:56Because it's not worth it
08:58Robert, remember this
09:00What's mine is yours
09:01Whatever I have, you'll have too
09:03We're on the same side
09:04Always
09:05The Independence Day customers
09:07And the smoked gift boxes
09:09I'm counting on you
09:10Stick with me
09:11Work hard
09:12And I won't let you down
09:14Frank, you're right about everything
09:18Independence Day customers
09:19A thousand smoked gift boxes
09:21To hell with all of them
09:23My restaurant's chef costs over $200,000 a year in salary
09:26That's more than I make in a year
09:28Not like Frank's place where you're the only cook
09:30He saves a fortune
09:31My daughter bought me tickets to Europe for Independence Day
09:34I'm in a hurry to sell
09:35I'll give you a break
09:36With the transfer fee, it's $90,000 total
09:38$90,000
09:39For this location, for a restaurant this size
09:42That's already a steal
09:42But I still don't have enough
09:44Tell you what
09:45I own this building
09:46The rent is $80,000 a year
09:48You can pay for the first three months now
09:50And cover the remaining nine months later
09:51I'll leave you the renovation and the equipment
09:53No extra charge
09:55Three months' rent comes to $20,000
09:59Okay, let me go think it over
10:00I'll get back to you as soon as I can
10:13Diana, there's something I want to talk to you about
10:21Robert, hold on
10:26That's all we have at home
10:28I'll ask my parents too
10:30Don't worry
10:30If we really can't do it any other way, we'll get a bank loan
10:33I believe in your cooking
10:35And I believe you'll make this work
10:37Honey, what if I lose all this money?
10:41Then we lose it
10:42I'll be right here with you
10:45Worst comes to worst
10:46We start over from nothing
10:47Don't worry
10:48Mom and bad are here for you
10:50Go for it with confidence
10:51We're both behind you
10:53Your grandfather's recipe should be wasted like this
10:56Let gun more people taste it
10:58Live your own life
11:01Mom told me about your situation
11:03I just transferred $20,000 to you
11:06Take it
11:06If that's not enough, I'll talk to my wife
11:09And see what else we can do
11:11Thank you, Eli
11:16Robert, I know you're a hard worker
11:19And I've had your smoked pork
11:20It's delicious
11:22But this is $90,000
11:24That's not a small amount of money
11:26Have you really thought this through?
11:28Mrs. Taylor, I have
11:29I believe in my cooking
11:31And I believe that in less than a year
11:33I'll make back every cent
11:34And do even better than Frank
11:35Let's sign the contract
11:36And please, Ms. Taylor
11:38Keep this between us for now
11:39Okay
11:40I don't want Frank to know
11:44All right
11:45Then here's to your success
11:58Robert, were you just across the street at that restaurant?
12:01What, you thinking of opening your own place?
12:10Where would I get the money, Frank?
12:14I was just taking a look
12:15I heard that place just got renovated
12:17So I went to check it out
12:19Right, you're broke
12:20Without me, you wouldn't even have food on the table
12:22Robert, we've made some money now
12:23I'm planning to go back to Brooklyn
12:25And have a meal with the old neighbors
12:26You're coming with me
12:27Bring your parents and your wife
12:28One more thing
12:29I told them I gave you a $30,000 share
12:31Don't let it slip when we're there
12:32You don't want people laughing at you
12:34And you don't want them saying
12:35I treated you unfairly
12:36$30,000?
12:38I'm doing this for your own good
12:39You worked a whole year
12:40And only took home seven grand
12:41If people find out
12:42They'll laugh at you
12:43And they'll call me cheap
12:44Just do what I say
12:45And don't make trouble for me
12:46Laugh at me?
12:47Isn't he the first one laughing at me?
12:49He's going back to show off
12:50And he's going to do it on my back
12:51He wants me to stand in front of the whole neighborhood
12:54And admit I'm nothing but a parasite
12:55Living off my brother's charity
12:57He gives me $7,000
12:58But tells everyone it's $30,000
13:00He wants to play the good guy
13:02While squeezing me dry
13:04Since when does anyone
13:05Get to have it both ways?
13:07Fine
13:07Whatever you say
13:08He wants face
13:10He wants to show off
13:10In front of the neighbors
13:11Fine
13:11I'll give him all the face he wants
13:19Oh my
13:19Isn't this Robert?
13:21I heard you became a partner
13:22At Frank's restaurant
13:23And made $30,000 this year
13:24That's so much better
13:25Than when you had your own little place
13:27What do you know?
13:27Frank only gave Robert that much
13:29Because they grew up together
13:29For real
13:30With his cooking skills
13:31He'd be lucky to make $10,000 a year
13:32Getting $30,000 from Frank
13:34That's Frank being generous
13:35Yeah Robert
13:36You'd better be grateful to Frank
13:37A debt like that
13:38You'd better remember it
13:39Without Frank
13:40You'd still be stuck in that little diner
13:42Begging for scraps
13:43Why does he have to give Robert $30,000?
13:45Frank gives him room and board
13:47Feeds him for free
13:48And the guy still isn't satisfied
13:49Unbelievable
13:50This isn't finding a partner
13:52This is taking in a damn ancestor
13:54Robert
13:54This is where you're wrong
13:55If you're an employee
13:56Act like an employee
13:57Frank is the boss
13:59You're the work
14:00Know your place
14:01Don't be so greedy
14:02Frank's money didn't fall out of the sky
14:04When he should he feed you for free
14:05And hand you $30,000
14:06If were me
14:07I would have kicked you out
14:08A long time ago
14:09Robert
14:09You need to face reality
14:11Some people are born to be the boss
14:12Like my son
14:13And some people are born to work
14:15Like you
14:15You need to accept your lot in life
14:17Stop dreaming of rising above your station
14:19And standing shoulder to shoulder
14:20With my son
14:20My son gave you $30,000
14:22That's no small amount of money
14:23On Independence Day
14:24Bring your parents and your wife
14:25To help out at my son's restaurant
14:26Don't even think about
14:27Sitting at home doing nothing
14:28You'd better show some gratitude
14:30For my son's generosity
14:37One last time
14:39From now on
14:40I'm done with Frank
14:41And these money-grobbing neighbors
14:42Robert
14:43Don't take those people seriously
14:45They're just jealous
14:46Of how close we are
14:47Jealous that you get to make money with me
14:48But my mom does have a point
14:50Your parents and your wife
14:51Don't have much going on at home
14:52Independence Day is going to be
14:53Crazy busy at the restaurant
14:54Your wife can cook too
14:55Have them all come help out
14:56Extra hands put my mind at ease
14:58Didn't you just hire a new chef?
14:59My wife needs to take care of our kids
15:01My parents are older
15:01They don't have the time
15:02That kid is useless
15:03He can't tell salt from sugar
15:04He's just for show
15:05Your whole family can cook
15:06Having you all there
15:07Makes me feel better
15:08Besides, I can give you $30,000
15:09You guys helping out a little
15:10Is the least you can do
15:12Look, that's not happening
15:13I'm not going to let you do that
15:15It's settled
15:17When you go back this time
15:18Bring them all with you
15:19I'm counting on you
15:20For the Independence Day customers
15:21And the smoke gift boxes
15:22Don't let me down
15:29Robert, I'm coming back to Queens tomorrow
15:31Those thousand smoke gift boxes
15:32They're all ready, right?
15:33Don't screw this up
15:34I took a $30,000 deposit from the client
15:36If I default, I'm done
15:37Yeah, I know
15:40Long time no see, my friend
15:41Come to Queens tomorrow
15:43The grand opening of my restaurant
15:50Robert, did the restaurant across the street
15:51Get a new owner?
15:52Who's running it now?
15:53Hurry up and get back here
15:54The guests are about to arrive
15:56What's taking you so long?
15:58Frank, the owner of this restaurant is me
16:00Robert, what kind of nonsense is that?
16:03How could you possibly be the owner of that restaurant?
16:05Where would you even get the money?
16:07Stop standing around Goldbring
16:09And get back in the kitchen
16:10The guests will be here any minute
16:18What are you all dressed up for?
16:20Go inside and change
16:21Then get to the kitchen
16:22Don't mess up my business
16:28Frank, so you opened another restaurant
16:30No wonder you didn't tell us
16:31Were you trying to surprise us?
16:33Frank, you must have made a fortune this year
16:35Opening a place like that must cost at least $200,000
16:37You've really got the chops
16:39Robert, you clean up nice in that suit
16:41I'll give you that
16:42Too bad you're just a cook
16:44Put you in a suit
16:45And you still don't look like a boss
16:46Enough with the chatter
16:48Robert, go change and get cooking
16:49If you screw up my business
16:51I won't let it slide
16:56Frank, I'm not cooking for you today
17:00Not cooking for me?
17:01Then who are you cooking for?
17:02Over there
17:05You jumped ship?
17:07Robert, after 30 years together
17:09You leave without saying a word
17:10You have no conscience
17:12Have you forgotten who gave you a hand?
17:14Who gave you a chance?
17:16I didn't jump ship
17:17Then what are you doing?
17:18Oh, I get it
17:19You're trying to blackmail me
17:20Hold me hostage for a raise, is that it?
17:23Robert, I've already paid you more than enough
17:24Still not satisfied?
17:25You're too damn greedy
17:27Yeah, Robert, this is too much
17:28Frank has been more than good to you
17:29He gave you room and board
17:31Gave you a $30,000 share
17:32And this is how you repay him?
17:38Exactly
17:38You ungrateful wretch
17:41Frank pulled you out of the gutter
17:42When you had nothing
17:43And this is when you abandon him?
17:46You think my son's restaurant
17:47Can't run without you?
17:53Weren't you all just saying
17:54I was taking $30,000 for doing nothing?
17:57Weren't you saying the new chef
17:58Is a hundred times better than me?
18:01So I'm leaving
18:03What's the rush?
18:05Robert, is there some kind of misunderstanding here?
18:07I promised
18:07I promised we'd split the profit 50-50
18:10But you know how it is
18:11My restaurant costs $80,000 a year just in rent
18:14Then there's labor, utilities, ingredients
18:17If I really went 50-50 with you
18:19I'd have to borrow money just to get by
18:20You've got to see things from my side too
18:22Look, after Independence Day
18:24I'll find a way to scrape together some more cash
18:26And give you a bigger share
18:27At least $60,000
18:28Deal?
18:29Stop making a scene and come help
18:31Don't mess up the real business here
18:32Frank, did you actually give me $30,000?
18:35Robert, what are you trying to do?
18:43What?
18:44He only gave him $7,000?
18:45That's way too little
18:46Right
18:47I heard Robert came in with his family recipe
18:49Frank's place was about to go under before Robert showed up
18:52That's when business turned around
18:54Even if Robert's not a partner, just a cook
18:56He still should have gotten more than that
18:58Then why did Frank say he gave him $30,000?
19:01And Robert didn't deny it earlier
19:03Something's not right here
19:04Is Frank lying?
19:07No, he's not!
19:09Frank gave him $30,000!
19:11For all you know, Robert blew it all himself
19:13And this $7,000 is all that's left
19:14Maybe he lost it, Gamm
19:16Spent it all
19:16And now he's trying to squeeze my son!
19:19That's possible
19:19Maybe he really did blow through the money
19:21And now he's trying to blame Frank
19:22Good thing Frank cleared that up
19:24Otherwise, what an injustice that would be
19:27Blaming Frank for something like this
19:28Robert, how did you end up like this?
19:32Alright, enough
19:32You've had your little tantrum
19:34I'm not going to hold it against you
19:35Now get back in there and job
19:38Don't mess up my business
19:39Because you can't afford the consequences
19:44Not so fast
19:46Let's get this straight
19:47If this deposit record doesn't prove anything
19:50Then let's try something else
19:56This is my place
19:57And I put up the capital
19:59People come here to eat at my restaurant
20:01You're just the cook
20:02Seven grand is more than fair
20:06Oh my god, he really only gave him $7,000?
20:09Frank used the friendship as an excuse
20:10Tricked Robert out of his secret recipe
20:12Worked him like a dog
20:13And then handed him seven grand?
20:15That is way out of line
20:17Yeah, if I were him, I'd jump ship too
20:19Open my own place
20:20Make money with my own skills
20:21Better than being treated like an idiot
20:23No, Robert
20:24You know damn well why I only gave you $7,000
20:26You've been lazing around my restaurant every day
20:28Not doing a thing
20:29I fed you, housed you
20:30And still gave you seven grand
20:32That's more than generous
20:33You can't be this ungrateful
20:35Fine
20:36I'll make you eat your words
20:38See that?
20:39This is what you call
20:40This is what you call
20:41Not doing a thing
20:42From six in the morning till three the next morning
20:45I didn't stop for a second
20:46And those fifteen smoked dishes
20:48I made every single one of them myself
20:50My wrist is still swollen
20:52You wanna tell me I didn't work?
20:53Frank, you came to me
20:54You said your restaurant was about to fail
20:57You begged me to bring my grandfather's smoked meat recipe
21:00And invest it in your place
21:01You asked me to be your chef
21:02You promised we'd split the profits 50-50
21:04Out of loyalty to the friendship we'd had since we were kids
21:07I closed my own restaurant and killed myself working for you
21:09This past year I fronted you over $2,000 for repairs and ingredients
21:13I never even asked for it back
21:15Because I believed you when you said you wouldn't treat me unfairly
21:17But when it came time for the payout, what did you say?
21:20You said I was just a lousy cook with no right to split the profits with you
21:24You went around lying to the neighbors
21:26And then you wanted my parents and my wife to come work for you for nothing
21:30Frank, and you're calling me ungrateful?
21:32Frank, this is just too much
21:33You made a fortune off someone else's recipe
21:36Treated him like a mule and gave him seven grand
21:38Doesn't that money burn a hole in your pocket?
21:40Either pay the man a real wage or buy his recipe outright
21:43$7,000, that's just exploitation
21:45And you have the nerve to call him ungrateful?
21:48You're the ungrateful one here
21:50Robert, can we talk about this later?
21:52I really need you right now
21:53Stop making a scene
21:54I promise I'll give you a raise
21:55$30,000
21:57No, $50,000
21:58That's fair, isn't it?
21:59Now please, just get back to the kitchen
22:01Don't mess up the guest's meal
22:04Keep your $50,000
22:06From now on, we each go our own way
22:08We owe each other nothing
22:10Robert, you can't leave
22:12The guests are about to arrive
22:13If you walk out, who's going to cook for me?
22:15And what about those thousand smoke gift boxes?
22:17Did you make them?
22:19You didn't make them, did you?
22:21Robert, are you trying to ruin me?
22:23I took a $30,000 deposit from the client
22:25If I default, I have to pay triple
22:29Who am I to you?
22:31Why should I cook for you?
22:32Why should I make your gift boxes?
22:34You're my partner
22:35I gave you a share
22:37A share?
22:38Are you talking about that $7,000?
22:40The wages you said I, a useless cook, deserved?
22:43Frank, we have no contract
22:45No agreement
22:46That partnership yours was nothing but empty words
22:49The moment you threw that $7,000 in my face
22:52Whatever there was between us was over
22:56Robert, just tell me how much you want
22:57Whatever Susan can give you, I can give you too
22:59We've known each other for 30 years
23:01You can't pick her
23:02You can't betray me
23:11I'm not picking anyone
23:12Because I'm the owner of this restaurant
23:21Frank, we're all here
23:23Serve the meal in half an hour
23:24We need to get to the attractions after we cheer
23:26So don't waste any time
23:27I'm really sorry
23:30Today, today the chef isn't here
23:31I can't serve the meal
23:33What did you just say?
23:34Are you joking with me?
23:35I booked this a month in advance
23:37Specifically for your smoked dishes
23:38Now my people are all here
23:39And you're telling me the chef isn't here?
23:40I'm really, really sorry
23:41Why don't you take everyone to another restaurant?
23:43I'll apologize, I'll compensate
23:44Today is Independence Day
23:46Tourists are everywhere
23:47Where am I supposed to find a restaurant
23:48To seat 300 people?
23:50I don't care what your problem is
23:52We had an agreement
23:52And we're sticking to it
23:54We're not going anywhere else
23:55We're eating right here at your place
23:57Noah, hurry
23:58Get to the kitchen and start prepping
23:59Lunch for 300 people
24:01It needs to be ready in half an hour
24:02Boss, I can't do it
24:03I can't handle a crowd this big
24:05And besides, there's not even enough ingredients
24:06In the kitchen right now
24:07No ingredients?
24:08We run a restaurant
24:09And you're telling me there are no ingredients?
24:10What kind of chef are you?
24:11Boss, there's nothing I can do
24:12Robert always handled all the purchasing and prep
24:14I never had to deal with any of that
24:16Robert!
24:16You did this on purpose!
24:18You're trying to destroy me!
24:20Frank, since the chef isn't here
24:22Does that mean the thousand smoked gift boxes I ordered aren't ready either?
24:26Where do you think you're going?
24:27Frank, tell me the truth
24:28Did you make those thousand gift boxes or not?
24:30I'm so sorry
24:31The chef who does the smoking
24:33He called in sick these past couple of days
24:35Give me a few more days
24:37Give me your address
24:38I promise I'll mail them to you
24:40Mail them?
24:41300 people?
24:42300 different addresses?
24:43Are you joking with me?
24:44Do you have any idea how important this tour group is to me?
24:46These are all key clients
24:47The only reason I chose your restaurant was because of your smoked dishes
24:50You think I would have picked you otherwise?
24:52I paid you a $30,000 deposit for those thousand gift boxes
24:54If you can't deliver them, according to our agreement, you owe me triple
24:57That's $90,000 right now
24:58And on top of that, you need to find us a place to eat immediately
25:01Otherwise, I'm calling the police and reporting you for fraud
25:03I'll make sure this restaurant of yours never opens again
25:07$90,000
25:09Robert, my good brother
25:10Think of our 30 years of friendship
25:12Help me out, I'll pay you more
25:13$50,000
25:14No, $100,000
25:15Please, just help me this one time
25:17No need
25:18Without you, I can make a lot more than that
25:23Well, if it isn't Robert
25:24Frank just said you were sick
25:25But I knew that couldn't be right
25:27You're tough as nails
25:27Every time I come here, I see you working your tail off
25:30Robert, you opened your own place?
25:32That's right, grand opening today
25:33It's about time
25:34That friend of yours is way too cheap
25:36A craftsman like you, working for him?
25:38Total waste of talent
25:39Hey Robert, does your place have room?
25:41I can't have 300 uruses going hungry
25:43We've got plenty of room
25:44And the smoke gift boxes are already prepared
25:46Right this way
25:46Good man
25:47Reliable
25:51You really screwed up
25:53You drove away a good brother like this
25:55You brought this on yourself
25:56And let me tell you
25:57That $90,000 penalty
25:58Not one cent less
26:00If you don't pay up
26:01I'll see you in court
26:06Robert, you unfastard
26:08My son gave you so much money
26:10And you betray him like this
26:12How can you be so cruel?
26:18Still trying to sling mud?
26:20Didn't you say Robert did nothing around here?
26:21Funny how without Robert
26:22Your son of son is about to lose $90,000
26:26Exactly
26:26He wouldn't the friend who broke his back for him
26:28And now he's got to pay it all out in damages
26:30Serves him right
26:42This is amazing
26:44The smoke flavor is so authentic
26:46I've never had smoked dishes this good anywhere
26:49Truly incredible
26:50All 15 smoked dishes are delicious
26:54We'll definitely be coming back
26:56You're always welcome
26:58The truth is
26:59I had already made those thousand smoked gift boxes
27:01Together with my parents and wife
27:02Back then
27:03I still thought that if Frank could finally wake up
27:05Admit his mistakes
27:06And stop treating me like a fool
27:07I would give him the gift boxes
27:08And help him get through this crisis
27:09But he didn't
27:10He chose to keep lying and keep squeezing
27:12He sealed that last path shut with his own hands
27:15First day open
27:16And gross revenue hit over $100,000
27:18A thousand smoked gift boxes at $85 each
27:22Comes to $85,000
27:23After subtracting the cost of ingredients
27:25Labor and everything else
27:27Net profit is $35,000
27:29This is what my craft is worth
27:31This is what I earned
27:32You have to try Robert's smoked dishes
27:34His craft is absolutely top notch
27:36William turned out to be incredibly helpful
27:38Everywhere he went after that
27:40He never forgot to spread the word about my restaurant
27:43Add to that the buzz from what happened on opening day
27:45When my place became famous
27:47In the days that followed
27:48We were packed every single day
27:49Tables were impossible to come by
27:51Takeout orders were non-stop
27:52I had to hire three more people just to keep up with demand
27:57No, you can't leave
27:58Mr. Carter, your restaurant doesn't have any customers
28:01There's no future for me here
28:02It's hurting my reputation
28:04I have to go
28:15Frank?
28:19I'm sorry, Robert
28:21That apology was a year overdue
28:23By now, it means nothing
28:26Was that Robert?
28:27Yeah, Dad
28:28It was him
28:29He looked at me like I was a stranger
28:32Frank, do you know where you went wrong?
28:33You went wrong when you treated Robert like a fool
28:36But he's not a fool
28:37He knew exactly what was going on the whole time
28:39You shouldn't have given him only $7,000
28:41While lying to all of us
28:42Saying it was 30
28:43And you shouldn't have made a fortune off his recipe
28:45While working him like an animal
28:46And breaking his heart
28:47Frank, you did this to yourself
28:52My restaurant is still packed every day
28:54I didn't let my grandfather's recipe down
28:56I didn't let my craft down
28:57And I didn't let my family's trust and support down
29:00As for Frank
29:01His fate is exactly what he brought upon himself
29:03As for me
29:04I'll keep moving forward with my craft
29:06And my family toward a better future
