Plot summary
As service continues, the staff works to seat every reservation within strict time limits while Donna arrives at the restaurant with Sophie. The apparent Michelin inspector, Mr. Dearborn, arrives with weatherman Tom Skilling; Richie manages to clear a table while Carmy enlists an overzealous guest touring the kitchen to help fold napkins to save time. Marcus's father arrives for dinner, while Neil keeps Dearborn and Skilling entertained with personal stories. The stove fails, forcing the staff to use hot plates to cook the lamb entree. Carmy accidentally drops Dearborn's plate; Sydney substitutes Tina's Brussels sprouts while Carmy suggests serving Sydney's Coca-Cola-braised short ribs, impressing Dearborn.
Cicero and Computer agree to pursue Ebraheim's proposal to franchise the Beef window. Marcus and Luca serve Marcus's father dessert using raspberries and caramel sauce hidden inside a candle, deeply moving him. Carmy quickly improvises part of a replacement dessert to complete the final order. The staff successfully finishes service and celebrates.
