i love that opening so much, sufjan stevens is one of my favorites too. apparently this episode was rewritten to be shot in one take 2-3 weeks before filming so i guess the production team probably felt similar stress

Was this the pilot episode? Idk why but this felt like the pilot episode for this show or the main concept of this show lol

Nah, they didn't have a pilot episode AFAIA, straight to series (so ep 1 is the pilot I guess). This came out of nowhere when S1 dropped, all 8 eps dropped at once so we all binged through the first 6 and then got hit with this like a freight train lmao. I get what you mean though, the opening feels very establishing and movie-like

right? well, that's my job. that's why i'm stressed 24/7 and i'm behind with literally every show you react to 😪

The problem was that the dish created buzz that the restaurant wasn't ready for. Carmy knew if either of them showed their skill, it would draw attention and if the restaurant wasn't ready for that attention it could cripple them before they even had a chance.

Milena laughing like a maniac when Marcus showed Carmy the donut... I had the same reaction lmao. I loved how you guys started the episode almost teary eyed from the positive review and then sweating from stress by the end, what a roller-coaster of absolute insanity

I love the relentlessness of this episode but honestly I got so caught up in it that I don't feel like I was able to accurately assess what happened until well after. Like I feel like while watching I was a little unfair to Sidney. I understood why she reacted the way she did and all, but for example, her bringing up Richie's kid really stood out to me as crossing the line. Which it of course is, but so is Richie suggesting she blew someone at the newspaper. But I know Richie's an asshole, so I don't think twice about it. But like that's straight up sexual harassment. Also while yes, some of Sidney's actions led to this being a particularly crazy shift, but not that long ago Marcus blew a fuse and they had to hurry to save the refrigerated goods and find a way to serve food. But Carmy was understanding, and nobody gave Marcus a hard time. Everyone's fucked up in different ways this season, and a major theme has been how to respond to others' mistakes and shortcomings in a healthy, productive way. Communicating. And so yeah there's only so much you can put on Sidney. It's easy to get into Carmy's headspace of freaking out trying to get through the shift, but none of that should take precedence over the mental well-being of your employees.

This episode was sooo stressful for me lmao, I couldn't even laugh at anything it was too much like being back in this kind of restaurant work.

I love that "I got stabbed" is the most calm line reading of the entire episode.
