Usual drama behind the bar. Nothing worth commenting about beyond that.

Ongoing debate with the bartender guy.

Geoffry and a woman are talking about Rocco sabatoging things for himself. Th woman says, "if he can't win, he's going to go down in a blaze of glory".

Some fellow from another restaurant tells Rocco to relax. He says when he first met him, he was a good looking guy, now he looks homeless. Too stressed out. Says relax a while and come back stronger.

I keep running from room to room for those who are missing it. So again if it sounds jumpy and there are typos it is cause I am rushing

I just feel like no matter what happens, this is not the Rocco's I dreamed of. Talking to Mama. Neither one is comfortable there any more. He is talking about looking at another restaurant.

Wants more of a Mom and Pop kind of place. Says weren't able to do it here. Mama says it is up to him. They will go look at some places.

Rocco tells momma this is not the Restaurant they wanted. If he wins the war what is he really winning. He don't feel comfortable in the space and momma says she doesnt as well.

Roccos mate has a space available and says to momma maybe we should look at it. And maybe they need a more mom and pop kinda place.. He says
maybe we should just pack up and go. He asks if she will look at spaces with him and she says yes

Back tot he meeting. Jeffs idea to deal with the mess is to sell Rocco his share or By Roccos. Wants a couple hundred thousand for his share. Sees no other way out. Rocco says....Ummm. It would be sad if the monumental effort was destroyed if both of us could not enjoy it.

Rocco wants a few days to think about it... because he doesn't want to see it destroyed.

Geoffrey speaks to the staff and tells them they made a profit for the first two weeks of the month. Kudos go to all around. Rocco...no response.

Plans to meet with Rocco in the morning.

Rocco smoozing...staff complaining.

Meeting time...

Geoffrey says is disappointing to get to this point. Says he's not enjoying this anymore.

Then cut to skating rink with some of the staff.

Back to Geoffrey and Rocco, Geoffrey offers to sell the restaurant to Rocco or he would pay Rocco to go somewhere else. He is thinking a couple hundred thousand dollars.

Rocco needs few days to think about it, then he'll have a solid response for him.

Then they show some notes about since taping ended, they have both gone into litigation.

Nothing settled.

Broxi, Thank you for donning your track shoes, and running from tv to computer, just so the rest of us could know what happened, on The Restaurant.
We really appreciate your kindness.

Is this episode worth trying to catch if it's repeated? Seems kinda same old same old.

BTW, thanks to Broxi & Demeter! I super duper appreciate your spoiling! :-)

Idolworship... not a problem was more than happy to help you guys who were pre-empted. Gonna get a cold drink and a piece of cake though...should have had it sooner...the sugar rush may have made me faster lol

I know others do a more precise job than me... but I did my best and tried to get into as much detail as I could.

Hamster... was very happy to help out on the info. And to your question...I would say yeah it is worth a gander but I would not kill myself to see it. {Does that make sense}. I found it very anti-climatic.

A wee P.s. It was Jeff that wanted the couple hundred thousand for his share.

Holy moly!

Talk about stress!

Rocco sleeping in the restaurant with his girlfriend? (Like I'm sure they did a lot of sleeping.) That's probably the longest he's ever spent in the place.

I just loved seeing Jeffrey taking a limo everywhere while Rocco was schlepping is 120 year-old mother down snow-covered NYC sidewalks.

Man, the food that chef in Miami prepared looked so freakin' good! It looked better than I've ever seen come out of the kitchen at Rocco's.

And wasn't that arrogant chef a piece of work? Mr. Potty Mouth has an ego almost as big as Rocco's.

There was one moment, when Rocco was cooking, when some pasta came out of the frying pan. I was just waiting for someone to pick it off the floor and put it on the plate.

Judging by the look on that line cook's face--the one that got fired--I thought he'd come back with a gun or a bomb or something.

Why do these employees like this restaurant so much? Because they're on TV? It seems like such a horrible work environment.

And you can't tell me the producers don't want us to think Rocco has a drinking problem. How many times now have we seen Rocco dipping into the sauce? 4-5?

I am so glad this show is over. <> I think him not taking Jeffrey's check then and there was the biggest mistake he could have made. Mark my words: Rocco's ego is going to bring him down.

I can't wait to read Page Six and as we all witness Rocco make a complete idiot of himself in the future.
