The Bear – S02E05 – Pop | Transcript

While the whole team is working to prepare for the opening of The Bear, the renovation work starts to get out of hand, which threatens to put a strain on the plans for the restaurant

Original release date: June 23, 2023

Sydney continues developing the menu with help from Tina, who is thriving in culinary school, although Tina is troubled when Ebra stops attending. Natalie convinces Cicero to expedite permit applications. Claire accompanies Carmy to drop off a liquor license application, where the pair bond. She convinces him to accompany her to a party, where Carmy realizes Claire represents the release and enjoyment he has been searching for. After the party, Carmy takes Claire to see the restaurant, walking in on an argument about Richie stealing electricity from a neighboring building. When the restaurant clears, Carmy and Claire share their first kiss.

TINA: What are you gonna call the dish?

SYDNEY: Oh, well, I don’t really know.

I’m just, like, working through a few ideas.

Like, there’s this concept of, like, all the elements,

you know what I mean?

Like, earth, air, water, fire.

But also, I really wanna be conscious of waste.

Those daikon are flashpickled in the water

that I washed the fennel salad in.

TINA: Uhhuh.

SYDNEY: And then I use the remainder

to make like a play on an XO sauce,

like a Chinese XO sauce, but like using the remainder

of the fennel.

That doesn’t look like fennel though.

Right, yeah, that’s like, that’s what’s, like, cool about it.

I was, like, thinking about using duck,

but we started with, like, a lamb.

You got a lot for a tasting menu.

I know thatthat’s… It’s like we’re exp… Tina.

It’s, like, good, it’s positive.

Okay, Ma. I got you.

SYDNEY: Yeah.

I will sear.

SYDNEY: Just do a, like, a hard sear.

Yeah, that’s the sausage.

TINA: This is going on there, too?

SYDNEY: Yeah. ‘Cause you’re gonna have, like, ideally duck

and then with, like, the garden of the elements around it.

It’s like earth, it’s like, it’s like fire, fire.

I don’t get how it’s fire, fire…

What?

SYDNEY: It’s like, it’s nduja.

It’s like spicy, it’s like fire.

♪ Nduja, do ya ♪

That song?

SYDNEY: Is that a song?

♪ Nduja ♪

♪ Do ya ♪

I don’t know.

Just messin’ with you, Ma.

You cranky ’cause it’s late, right?

I’m messin’ with you, too.

It’s not that late.

TINA: It is a li…

It’s 1:30 in the morning, my love.

We’re doing good on time. Are you tired?

I wouldn’t be mad if we wrapped it up.

And with the bread

I’m thinking about doing, like,

a play on, like, a panzanella.

Panzanella?

SYDNEY: Yeah.

Do you feel like this is, like, too many ingredients or

Honestly, Chef, it seems a little busy, Ma.

Not too much.

It’s a lot. It’s a lot. I’m seeing now that it’s a lot.

Five?

SWEEPS: Seven.

Ahh!

Oh, you gained a second, bro.

No, that felt like four. Are you sure you’re starting it right?

Carmy, I’m starting it right, bro.

TINA: Morning, fam.

Yo, T.

What’s up, T?

Jeffrey?

Yeah.

You have an extra knife lying around?

I need a good one for school.

Yes, uh, just, uh, over there on the bench.

TINA: Carm.

Yeah.

You heard from Ebra?

No. Why? What’s up?

Nada. We’ll talk later.

RICHIE: (clapping) Come on, let’s go.

CARMY: Alright, alright, alright.

(exhales)

Okay.

Go.

Okay, and five.

Tell me that’s five.

SWEEPS: Seven.

Seven?

Embarrassing, bro.

CARMY: Jesus Christ.

It’s the island and the ovens, they’re just…

They’re too far apart, right? I mean, what do you think?

I think you can get it down to five.

Nah, this kid’s fried. He needs a break.

No, I got it, cousin.

TINA: Wait. Jeffrey.

CARMY: Yo.

This is your knife.

Yours, Chef.

RICHIE: Cousin, get your ass back on the line.

(grunts) Alright!

Let’s go. Bring it home.

(Carmy clapping)

(beeps)

SWEEPS: Go.

We have the appointments confirmed.

It’s just scheduling them is the issue.

Scheduling’s the issue?

Natalie, this fucker’s making a sandwich.

Yeah, that’s Richie’s electrician.

How you doing, Richie’s electrician?

Why you making a sandwich?

Can’t do anything else until plumbing is installed.

That department had a scheduling issue.

Apologies.

Don’t worry about it.

Berzatto department has a brain issue.

(laughs)

Didn’t there used to be a bunch of fucking walls up in here?

SUGAR: Yeah.

Stop. Time?

Seven.

Seven? Fuck!

SUGAR: Carm, you were seven an hour ago.

Thank you.

That’s helpful. What’s up, Unc?

Oh, nothing. What the fuck’s this weird shit?

We’re mapping out the kitchen for maximum efficiency.

Mapping out the kitchen plan…

Can you let me talk?

SUGAR: Let me talk.

Please.

CARMY AND SUGAR: Stop it.

CICERO: Oh, kill me. Ladies and germs.

Gotta be honest. I’m becoming concerned

that we are taking our eye off the ball here,

and I just wanna be shut the fuck up

hyper clear.

If I ain’t seein’ no progress,

I do not wanna keep pissing money away.

I’m calling this out now because we are…

How far from open, Sug?

Six weeks.

CICERO: Six weeks.

And I somehow anticipate that in the coming six weeks,

there will be more pissin’.

Thing is, I like to control

the pissin’ the best of my ability.

Shut the fuck up, Richard. Your schedule is kinked.

You’re doing whatever the fuck you’re doing here.

Thunder Nuts is out there making sandwiches for his whole family.

I mean, look, much as I look forward to selling this place,

and trust me, I do look forward to it,

I think it’s just in all of our best interests

if we have a maximally efficient place of business.

I really would like to tell you a story

of complete and utter failure.

SYDNEY: Hey, we got one.

Wants a signing bonus, but we got one.

What’s his, um, onbase percentage, Chef?

What, is this sports?

It’s standard operating procedure.

Thank you, Chef. We’ll talk about this later.

Okay. We also have to talk about smallwares.

Yep. Thank you, Chef.

Great. Thank you, Chef.

Corner. Wiring is in.

We gotta lock it up.

Yes, let’s keep that safe, please.

Don’t worry, cuz, I got it dialed.

Just like you had the contractor dialed?

How you doin’?

RICHIE: Yeah, exactly like that.

Is now a good time to talk about

those Taylor Swift tickets?

How we doing?

CICERO: I don’t know, Rich.

Is now a good time to talk about you go fuck yourself?

(loud crack)

Yo.

Faky! What’s up?

Hey, Timmy. How are you?

Hey, Timmy, what you eating, bud?

Electric made me a sandwich.

Nice. You enjoy that.

TIMMY: I will.

Carm, Sugar, what the fuck?

He can’t do the drywall…

He can’t do the drywall

You go.

…before the electricity is installed.

And the electricity can’t be installed until the plumbing is installed.

RICHIE: Which is why I’m employing a technique known as “war dialing,”

where I call somebody over and over again

till that motherfucker is forced to pick up.

And so you, you get him?

Um… it’s still ringing.

Excellent work, general.

All good. Still billable hours.

(Sugar chuckles)

Hey, Neil, honey, can you stall him?

This is the only day he could come,

and we can’t afford to reschedule.

Like, how do I stall him?

SUGAR: I don’t know.

Just, like, talk to him, my love.

Talk. Okay.

Just chat.

FAK: Hey, Tim. Do you wanna see some magic?

CICERO: I don’t wanna fuck around here.

I mean, no progress, we don’t open.

I mean, I am 450K in here.

550K.

Oh, 550K. Fuck my life.

No, you’reyou’re absolutely right, Uncle J.

I mean, we need help.

What can we do?

I feel like you always know what to do.

I just…

(sighs) I’m sorry.

I just couldn’t figure it out myself.

CICERO: You just take it easy on yourself, alright?

Don’t beat yourself up, alright? That’s my job.

Meantime, come on out here. I gotta show you something.

Okay.

Go fuck yourselves.

CARMY: That was fucking gross, Sugar.

(Richie laughing)

Time?

Alright, let’s go.

Ebra, where you at?

Uh… it’s been a few days.

I don’t remember the last time

I haven’t spoken to you for a few days.

That’s weird, right?

Don’t be weird.

Let’s fuckin’ go.

Excellent cut, Chef.

Thank you, Chef.

(gentle piano music playing)

FAK: …my second favorite album is “Tim.”

My first favorite album is “Pleased to Meet Me,”

which has the greatest, like, high school song ever written.

“Can’t Hardly Wait.”

They’re definitely way more punk.

You can see through their influences

of like Wipers and Dead Moon.

People say it’s, like, hardcore, it’s like no.

We know what’s gonna go there, right?

SUGAR: Yeah.

Not a C.

SUGAR: An L, a B, and a W.

‘Cause that’s your moneymaker right there.

SUGAR: You know, they won’t let me apply

for a liquor, beer and wine license

without the certificate of occupancy.

(scoffs) Motherfuckin’ bullshit takes forever, doesn’t it?

I know.

How about, uh…

I don’t know.

Maybe Uncle Jimmy can move that along a bit for you.

Would that be good?

Would you?

Let me see what I can do. Alright?

Thank you.

Aw. Thanks.

Okay, Sug.

SYDNEY: Oh, Carm, got two more hires.

Can I get your eyes on this?

Yeah.

Hey, if this isn’t happening today,

I really should get going.

This is happening today, Tim. Right, Fak?

Yes, it is gonna happen.

CARMY: Hey.

Okay, these plates?

Uh…

No. Let me see.

I think, um…

This plate.

Hear that?

No.

Right.

SYDNEY: Okay.

Well, that’s 55 bucks a plate

for that type of silence, so…

Okay, yeah.

Then we can use the shitty ones.

What’s up?

SUGAR: Slide it in the mailbox.

This is it?

Yep, that’s it.

Ooh, what’s that?

Um, potential plates.

SUGAR: Oh, that’s gorgeous.

That’s 55 bucks a plate.

Nope.

Right.

Um, what is that?

Beer and wine permit.

Oh, great. Doesn’t look shady at all.

I think it’s standard procedure these days.

I’m gonna take this in and mail it, okay?

Okay.

SYDNEY: Um, hey,

when you’re back, can we talk napkins for real, please?

Yes. Yes, we can go over napkins.

For real, yes.

SYDNEY: Okay.

Um, have you heard of Coach K?

Coach K. Uh, Duke men’s basketball coach.

SYDNEY: Yeah.

Yeah.

Um…

Chaos menu.

I just, I don’t know. Um…

Let me get back to you on it, okay?

Okay.

SUGAR: Carm.

Bye!

CARMY: Yeah.

You’re not dropping that off ’cause I’m pregnant, right?

No. No, no, no, I just…

You’ve been doing a lot, and I see that.

(Sydney sighs)

And, you know, just, thank you.

Thanks.

Um…

Look, you know what I wanna say.

I do. You don’t have to say it. I’m good.

I’m saying stuff and you’re thinking about electrical.

Okay, good. Thank you.

FAK: …it’s Replacements, right?

This is where we are right now.

I mean, I’m more into, like, kinda like Chingy, you know.

FAK: Like the rapper?

TIM: Yeah, yeah.

(inhales and exhales deeply)

(Fak and Tim speaking indistinctly)

(line ringing)

Hey, hey. I, um, I know we were supposed to hang out later,

but, um, II was wondering

if you might want to

take a drive to Winnetka with me instead.

(“Total Control” by The Motels playing)

Hey, thank you. Thank you for, uh, driving.

CLAIRE: Oh, it’s perfect timing.

I had all this extra adrenaline

after resetting this guy’s tibia.

Whoa.

Does that shit really, like, fire you up?

It fuckin’ fires me up. Plus, I love driving.

Really?

CLAIRE: Well, no.

I’m a horrible driver, but…

I enjoy the risk of it.

I should be worried, then.

CLAIRE: Yeah, really worried.

I went to med school in New York, so I never drove,

so I try to make up for it in the times I’m not working.

CARMY: Gotcha.

So I gotta ask, how, um, how gnarly is residency?

It’s, uh, gnarly like you cannot imagine.

Right.

Okay, yeah, ’cause everything I’ve heard about it,

it sounds like, well, really fucking gnarly.

Really gross.

And the time commitment, too,

it’s like 100 hours on, two hours off, so…

I don’t know, you must really love it.

You know, especially considering how gnarly and gross it is.

Isn’t a restaurant 100 hours on and two hours off?

Sure is.

Isn’t a restaurant, uh, gnarly and gross?

Sure is, yeah.

You must really love it.

Sure do.

SUGAR: God.

Yo, why is Cicero comin’ down here

and accusing us of pissing away his money?

Probably because we’re pissing away his money.

And things are finally moving today, it’s okay.

Yo, if we’re gonna be partners, you gotta trust me, okay?

We are not partners, Richie.

We got a problem, boss.

“Boss.” See?

He wasn’t talkin’ to you.

I wasn’t talkin’ to you.

Yeah. See? What’s up?

HVAC’s not working. It’s a power problem.

What kinda power problem?

Okay, explain amperage to me.

Do you have anything like that?

Um, I can take a look.

The menu’s fucked.

And I need Carmy, but he is…

being Carmy somewhere.

Sorry. I really, II shouldn’t talk shit. I don’t mean to.

I know that’s your brother.

No, he sucks.

At least he’s hanging out with Claire.

I mean, that seems moderately healthy, right?

Who’s Claire?

CLAIRE: You know what I was, um, thinking about?

CARMY: Hmm. Tell me.

We’ve hung out like so much, but we’ve never actually talked.

Yeah. Yeah, I know what you mean.

We were just like kids, you know.

CARMY: Just kids running around.

Shoplifting, yeah.

What?

I shoplifted from Walgreens many times.

What would you shoplift?

CLAIRE: Gum.

Gum?

Obviously, so much gum.

That’s, um, that’s a problem, Claire.

It’s really thrilling.

CARMY: Hmm.

Um… I also remembered

that I sat behind you in Algebra freshman year.

Did you really?

CLAIRE: Yeah.

And you were always drawing something.

I would try to guess what you were drawing.

Um, yeah, pants.

Really short pants.

CARMY: Yes.

Yeah.

CARMY: Very, very short pants.

Yeah, no, I, um, I had this idea for, like,

like Dickies, but cuffed and made with worsted wool.

Hmm.

Done at a very high level, yeah.

Well, they were really highlevel drawings.

CARMY: Yeah. I, um, I just didn’t realize at the time

that somebody had been making those pants, uh, very well

for a very long time at a, at a very high, high level.

Dream killed.

Yeah, but then the, uh, the guy who made them,

he actually, he started coming in

in to one of my restaurants and, um,

and he was really great.

And, uh, I don’t know, I felt like

I wanted to start drawing again.

CLAIRE: The dream returned.

I, uh, I wish I knew that then.

CARMY: Hmm.

I wish you talked to me more.

I tried.

You’re really shy.

You always had so many friends.

(Claire scoffs)

I was like…

I don’t know. I really wanted that. Um…

You know, Mike, Mikey, Mikey had that.

Yeah, Mikey…

Mikey was cool.

CARMY: Mikey was cool.

Mikey was cool. Like, he would set something on fire.

(laughs) Yeah, he was very, very cool.

He was so great, Carm.

Hmm.

I’m sorry I haven’t brought it up.

I just didn’t wanna make you think about it.

No, I like thinking about him.

Speaking of dead brothers, do you wanna go to a party?

CARMY: Hmm…

(Claire laughs)

My, uh, my friend got, like, majorly broken up with.

CARMY: Okay.

And she’s at a party not too far from here.

Uhhuh.

I feel like she really needs me.

And I feel like you really owe me.

‘Cause, like, how would you have

delivered an envelope without me?

I couldn’t have gotten here without you.

You couldn’t have done it.

A party. Um…

When’s the last time you went to a party?

I think…

Never.

Okay.

Uh, yeah, okay. I like that.

Okay, what should the code word be?

I really like that.

But it’s a problem.

It’s a disease.

No, addiction, that’s, definitely, it’s a disease.

No, stealing cell phones.

I get hardcore fixations.
