Anyone understand what he's saying?
Housekeeping means you
have to clean your stations
'cause this place is fuckin' gross.
I refer to everybody as Chef
because it's a sign of respect,

figure out the spaghetti.
I said it doesn't make
any sense on this menu,
so it is done. The end.
- Three hours to open, Chefs!

There's like four of us in here.
Now, let me ask you something.
If the spaghetti didn't make any sense,
how come everybody
fucking loved that shit?
- MARCUS: Everybody did love it.
- Everybody doesn't have any taste.
It was an under-seasoned
over-sauced mess.
- It took seven hours to prep.
- RICHIE: Oh, fuck!
You know what? This shit right here
made you pompous and delusional
and a fucking gayrod!
These guys, they taught
you how to cook with ants,
but none of these fuckwads
taught you how to make a pasta!
Probably should learn
how to make pasta, Carmy.
A, I know how to make pasta, Marcus.

Wrigley didn't deliver
enough meat this week.
- Why didn't Wrigley deliver?
- Because we're out of money!
The only beef I could get
was bone-in, which you
have to braise, all right?
It takes two hours
longer. The good news is
- we can stretch it by cutting the bread shorter
- Call Wrigley.
- and using less gravy.
- Call Wrigley! Which is not how we have ever done
a beef here in 25 years, Carm!

- Not dope at all.
What are you talking about?
I brought that crowd in!
- That's a lot of money out there!
- That we're not prepped for!
I shoulda let those turkeys
eat you, Carmy, I swear to God.
Today was not the day to
go fucking with the system.
- System, system! Cousin
- Hey, I don't care.
I do not care what you do up in Napa
with your fucking tweezers
and your foie gras.
You got no fuckin' idea
what you're doing here!
None! Zero!
So we are gonna stick with what works,
and we are gonna fuckin' make sure
we got enough food to
feed these fuckin' dorks.
So get your ass back in there,
and you make that fuckin' spaghetti.
