Bar Exam Season 4 Episode 5: Replacing Harry

 

REAGAN, CHASE, LINCOLN, SAM, ADAM, and MADISON are enjoying drinks at the bar. LORENZO walks over with FRED and HARRY. 


FRED
Lorenzo, how did these six get drinks? 


LORENZO
They must’ve poured them themselves!


FRED
Don’t let that happen again. 


HARRY

What am I here for? I have orders to hand out, you know. 


FRED
It’s about just that. Harold—


HARRY

Harry. 


FRED
It’s Harold as far as your contract goes. 


HARRY

I go by Harry. Nobody calls me Harold. 


FRED

Regardless, your contract is being terminated effective tomorrow. 


LINCOLN
You can’t do that!


FRED

I’ve run the numbers and Lorenzo’s Kitchen by SugarCity would be much more profitable if we replaced Harry with a waiter-less system. We would install touch screens and when the food is ready, robots will bring the food out to them. 


MADISON

I don’t like it. 


CHASE
Yeah, this place is nothing without Harry. In face, it should be renamed Harry’s Kitchen by Harry!


HARRY
I wouldn’t go that far. 


LORENZO
What about Harry’s Kitchen by Harry presented by Lorenzo? Or better yet—Lorenzo Presents Harry’s Kitchen by Lorenzo. 


FRED
None of this has anything to do with what I’m trying to say here. Harold, today is your last day on the job. That’s final. No negotiating. 


ADAM
Oh yes there is negotiating! I’m a lawyer, you know. 


SAM
We all are. 


FRED 
And? 


HARRY

No disrespect, but I’m not going to use any of you when I sue SugarShitty. 


FRED
You take that back right now or you’re fired on the spot. 


LINCOLN
Don’t do that! Harry is—uh—Harry is the only reason I come here!


REAGAN
Really? That makes no sen—I mean, yeah, Harry is the best!


CHASE
I love Harry!


SAM
Romantically? 


CHASE
No. I mean, yes. No nevermind. 


FRED
I see what you’re trying to do here. But you can’t change my mind. This is a business. 


ADAM
Fine. I guess we’ll just have to reminisce on all those times where Harry gave 110% in getting our orders to us. 


REAGAN

Yeah, sometimes he would actually sprint with our food. And he wouldn’t drop any of it!


MADISON

I have bad experiences with touch screen ordering systems. Once I ordered a chicken salad and they forgot the chicken. Harry wouldn’t!


LORENZO
And don’t get me started on how much Harry has done for this place in general. He would give an arm and a hand for this place!


HARRY
I would? 


FRED
I’m not buying it. 


LINCOLN
What if I told you that Harry first suggested Lorenzo’s Kitchen partner with SugarCity?


FRED
Lorenzo, is this true?


LORENZO
Is what true?


FRED
That Harry suggested the two of us partner?


LORENZO
Yes, it is true!


FRED
Then I suppose I owe Harry a favor. How’s a $10,000 severance package?


HARRY

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I want my job. 


FRED
Fine. But one day, I’ll get my robots!


FRED walks away. 


REAGAN

Alright, something needs to be done about that guy. 


LORENZO

I think he just wants to seem like an authority.


ADAM

We can’t just keep lying every time we come here. First it’s about the memorabilia, now it’s about Harry. I know we’re lawyers, but we haven’t gone THAT low yet. 


MADISON

Yeah, I really don’t like lying. 


LORENZO

And there’s no reason to think you will have to either. Our new chairs come in next week. Go LorenzoChair!


Everyone quickly leaves.
