Bar Exam Season 4 Episode 2: The Chocolate Menu

 

CHASE, LINCOLN, ADAM, SAM, MADISON, and REAGAN are all sitting at the bar of Lorenzo’s Kitchen by SugarCity. LORENZO is standing behind the bar, while HARRY is delivering orders. The restaurant is full of people trying the new chocolate bar-based menu. FRED arrives and walks up to LORENZO.


FRED
Lorenzo. 


LORENZO
Ted.


FRED
It’s Fred. How are things going?


LORENZO
Good, and yourself?


FRED
I meant how are things going at my—I mean, our—I mean, your—restaurant?


LORENZO
Great, actually! I wasn’t sure about the chocolate bar-based menu at first, but it seems to be really working. I’ve gotten more orders today than I have in the longest time. 


FRED
That’s great! It’s very on brand for SugarCity, glad to hear we’re making a profit.


LORENZO
I never said we’re making a profit. 


FRED
So we’re losing money?


LORENZO
I’m not really good at that stuff. 


FRED
Well you’re paying the bills I guess, given the lights are on. 


LORENZO

And by the looks of things, I have six hungry customers waiting at this bar. 


LORENZO turns to the six lawyers.


LORENZO

What can I get you?


SAM
Chocolate bar ribs.


REAGAN
I want to try the chocolate bar sandwich. 


ADAM

Chocolate pasta for me, please. 


FRED
Wow, this menu is really popular! Lorenzo, you might want to even think about ditching your traditional menu. 


CHASE

I’ll have the chocolate—um...


CHASE sees LORENZO giving him a pleading look. 


CHASE
Actually, I’ll have the grilled cheese. 


FRED
You mean the chocolate melt?


CHASE
No. Just plain, regular grilled cheese. Cheese, turkey, bread. Simple. 


SAM
That’s not what grilled cheese is. It’s also not on the menu.


LORENZO
I’ll still make it! Madison, I remember you saying you wanted a cheeseburger earlier, and I know Lincoln likes chicken, alright gotta go bye!!!


LORENZO runs to the kitchen.


FRED
He’s not a fan of the chocolate bar menu, is he?


MADISON

I’m guessing no. 


FRED
Oh well. Guess he’ll just have to get used to it. 


FRED yawns.


FRED
Past my bedtime. I’ll stop by again at one point or another. 


FRED leaves.


CHASE
What’s up with that guy? He made me order a grilled cheese!


SAM

Not a grilled cheese. 


LINCOLN
I didn’t even get to order anything! If there’s anything here I don’t like it’s the chicken!


REAGAN

Guys, look at it this way. Lorenzo’s Kitchen is doing better than it ever has been. And people actually seem to be enjoying the food, so I’ll bet they come back again for more. 


MADISON
Says the person who got to order what they wanted. 


SAM
No, Reagan’s right. Plus, remember that ultimately Lorenzo made this menu. 


LORENZO returns with the food. 


LORENZO

Oh, I love this menu. It has me written all over it! Ate some stuff off it when I was back there in the kitchen. I just don’t want it to be the ONLY menu. 


HARRY yells from the middle of the restaurant. 


HARRY
EVERYONE, PLEASE ORDER OFF THE TRADITIONAL MENU. LORENZO’S KITCHEN IS NOW OUT OF CHOCOLATE. 


Some people start to boo. Others leave. 


LORENZO

So my chocolate menu is a big hit. 


CHASE
Sorry, Lorenzo. 


LORENZO
No, it’s okay. I just have to figure out how to make chocolate now. 


MADISON
Doesn’t SugarCity supply it to you?


LORENZO
Oh! Right. Yeah, they do. In that case, this is easy!
