- We got a full house of people... - Yeah. - ..who are coming tonight... - Yeah. - ..To eat my food. - No, it's not your food, Carl. It's not your food. By definition, it's my food because it's my restaurant. I pay for the glasses. I pay for the napkins. I pay for the spoons. I pay for Molly's salary. I pay for your entire staff's salary, OK? So you either cook my menu or Tony can. Tony, you've been cooking it half the time anyway. Tell the truth. Right?

Know what a meme is? I'm a meme. I'm a fucking meme. Carl, you need to take a break. I've been on a break. I've had too much of a break. - No, you need a real break. - I need to work. - I need to get back into a kitchen. - You don't. Carl... I wish I never... I should've cooked the shit he wanted me to cook. You gonna go work for another Riva in some other restaurant? You've been miserable here as long as I've known you, Carl. - That's not true. We've had a blast. - Yes, we've had a blast. And now it's time for you to go.

And what do you? You just write shit to make... You just make shit up! It was molten! It's fucking molten! Asshole! - You're not getting to me. - OK. OK. - You're not getting to me! - OK, Carl. - He's not getting to me! - No, he's not. I know, but you're a publicist. Don't you have relationships? Isn't that what you're hired to do? To take these things off the internet? But it's out there. Even if I could persuade one site to pull down one clip, there are a dozen others from other cell phones. What should we... should we at least lawyer up and threaten legal action or something? You threatening them with lawyers builds on a story that's already getting a lot of play. And then you get another week of headlines. And then you got this food critic posting fresh blogs about you nonstop. And they're all getting picked up, and the picked-up headlines are getting picked up by each other. You know, it's absolutely unbelievable. - So... - I've never seen anything like... Wait a second... you're saying there's nothing I could do? To get the footage down? No, that lives forever. Great. Awesome. But there just might be an opportunity here. How can this possibly be an opportunity? Well, I was holding off until we spoke, but I'm fairly certain we have a good shot at 'Hell's Kitchen'. - Wait, what? - The reality show. I don't think you understand what's going on here. I'm a real chef with... - You said you needed money, right? - A job. A job, not money. I need a job, like I had. Well, your Twitter account says you've got 20,000 followers. - That's pretty damn big. - Yeah, I'm gonna cancel the account. - Don't worry. - Don't cancel it! I can get you money to mention a few products. Are you listening? I don't wanna get involved with any of that. - I wanna cook food. - You got two choices. You can either lean into it and work it for all it's worth... Like Honey Boo Boo. I don't want that. You know how much she pulls down? Or her mother? I don't care what she makes. Get to your point. Or go underground and wait till the storm passes. You got two choices. I thought this shit lives forever online. It does, but there's so much news out there and it's so fast and there's so much white noise, nobody remembers anything. OK, thank you for taking the time and walking me through everything. It was very illuminating. Oh, you're hanging up? OK, listen. I want you to call any time. I'm right here. If you can't get me, I'm on a cell phone and I've got a pager. - OK. Thank you, and thank Inez for me. - No, thank you. - And what about 'Hell's Kitchen'? - What about it? - You still want me to pursue it, right? - No, I don't want you to. - OK, I won't call 'em, but I'll email. - Are you not listening to... I'm gonna go, OK? I got a call coming in. OK. Alright. I'll tell you how 'Hell's Kitchen' goes.
