Ep.1 (Part 2)
Max: I'm only gonna say this once, so pay attention.
Caroline: I'm Caroline, by the way. And you're Max?
Max: Don't get attached.
This is the Williamsburg diner, owned by Han Lee, who just changed his name to Bryce Lee, because I guess he wants people to take him even less seriously. Eight months ago he bought it from the Russian mob. Clientele used to be all eastern bloc criminals and crack whores, but then he took it over and ruined it.
Oleg: Hey, sexy woman. You look so pretty today. You look so beautiful, I forgot how bad your personality is.
Max: Thanks, Oleg.
Oleg: Hey, Barbie.
Max: He will hit on you aggressively and relentlessly. He doesn't realize he looks like that, and I don't have the heart to tell him.
Customer: Could we have some menus?
Caroline: Oh, sure.
Max: Don't smile. 'Cause it raises the bar, and then I have to smile, and I can't be doing that. It's exhausting and I have a bad back. That's Earl, we're in love. Do not talk to him, unless you want to feel whiter than you already are. Oh, and that stain? Not clam chowder. Go marry the ketchups.
Caroline: Marry the ketchups. I'm on it.
