“Napkins”

“Legacy”

Two more episodes of The Bear out of the way. The show is quality throughout.

“Napkins” was the origin story of Tina. Again, I was unsure where in the timeline this took place at first. After awhile, I realized that this was a flashback episode detailing how Tina ended up at the restaurant.

The scene between Tina and Mikey was just tremendous. The dialogue was sharp and excellent and did a great job of moving the scene along. It was a great scene as it always is with Jon Bernthal on the screen. Bernthal brings a true gravitas to the story and his performance works so well. I was just thinking the whole time how this was a guy who would kill himself, which I think is one of the main reasons Carmy has had such a difficult time dealing with the loss over the seasons.

Episode seven finds another restaurant looking to poach Sydney and give her the position that she always wanted. There is a reason she has not yet signed the deal for partnership at The Bear and I get the feeling that this is something that is going to blow this series up. You can already see how much Richie depends on Sydney, let alone the rest of the crew.

Meanwhile, Carmy is as spaced out as ever.

Oh, and it looks like Sugar may be in labor. How will The Bear get their C-Folds????
