Bar Exam Season 4 Episode 7: Lorenzo’s Day Off

 CHASE, MADISON, SAM, ADAM, LINCOLN, and REAGAN have just arrived to Lorenzo’s Kitchen by SugarCity. 

MADISON

Gotta say, these new LorenzoChairs are much more comfortable than the last ones. 


CHASE
So we’re using LorenzoChair now? Not Affordable Chair Act? 


LINCOLN
Who would name a bill Affordable Chair Act.


CHASE
Me! Does nobody remember I was part of that bill?!


REAGAN

Not really, Lorenzo seems to want to take full credit. 


SAM

Speaking of Lorenzo, where is he?


ADAM

Probably concocting new cotton candy or covered in melted chocolate. I’m not even that hungry or thirsty, I can wait. 


HARRY walks over to the bar. 


HARRY

Guys, we have a little situation here. 


MADISON
Uh oh. 


HARRY

Lorenzo is traveling with the Primitives. 


CHASE
Why would he do that?!


REAGAN

Don’t even tell me he’s quitting the restaurant. 


HARRY

I have no clue who convinced him to sit on a bullpen bench and why, but I do know that Fred is not going to be happy about this. 


LINCOLN
You’re probably not happy either, right? Now you have to make all the food!


HARRY

I’m not up for that! 


FRED walks over to the bar. 


FRED
Hello everyone. 


After some silence:


LINCOLN
You want us to tell you if we’ve seen Lorenzo, don’t you?


FRED

Kinda. 


CHASE
Here’s the thing about that: 


LINCOLN
You gave him the day off. 


FRED
I don’t give people days off. 


REAGAN

I heard you say the other day that you were giving Lorenzo a day off!


ADAM
Yeah, and I actually was there when you talked to Lorenzo about giving him that day off. 


FRED
Did I now? 


SAM
Yeah, you can be very forgetful. 


FRED stares at SAM sternly. 


SAM
Is a joke I would say if I joked. 


FRED

I have no recollection of giving Lorenzo a day off. Do you think he’s okay? I mean, not okay, but, the same as he’s been? 


LINCOLN

You gave him the day off. I can’t believe you don’t remember!


HARRY

I even found a note in the kitchen from Lorenzo thanking you for giving him a day off. 


FRED
I’ll believe it when I see it. 


HARRY runs to the kitchen and quickly writes a note, pretending to be from LORENZO. He brings it to FRED. 


FRED
Wow...yeah, this looks legit. I am embarrassed to say I did completely forget about that day off I gave him. Carry on, everyone. I’m leaving for the night. 


Everyone is silent until FRED leaves. 


REAGAN

Did we actually just gaslight Fred into thinking he gave Lorenzo a day off? 


LINCOLN

Yes we did. And Chase was about to confess before I saved it. 


CHASE
Yeah, let’s all try to chase away Chase today. 


HARRY

I’m the real hero here. I’m the one who wrote that note. Now who wants to help me make food? 


ADAM
There’s nobody else in here right now. 


HARRY gets up and changes the sign in the door from Open to Closed. 


HARRY

That solves my problems for the night. 


HARRY walks out. 


REAGAN
Guess there’s no point in us being here now. 


ADAM

Hopefully Lorenzo shows up next time. Like it or not, this place is not the same without King Lorenzo. 


Everyone else leaves.
