Furthermore, the restaurant unexpectedly runs out of forks, an oversight on Carmy's part. Marcus steps up to help with expediting service, but he struggles, causing delays and falling behind on bread production. To add to the chaos, the handle of the walk-in fridge breaks, trapping Carmy inside.

Responding to the unfolding circumstances, Richie takes charge of expediting, leading The Bear through a successful first night. Meanwhile, Pete, Natalie's husband, spots Donna outside the restaurant, but she refuses to go in. Inadvertently, he reveals Natalie's pregnancy to Donna, leading her to leave tearfully. Honoring Donna's request to keep her visit a secret, Pete tearfully expresses his pride in Natalie.

Marcus makes a distressing discovery as he finds Josh smoking methamphetamine in the alley, leading to his immediate termination. The mounting stress takes its toll on Sydney, causing her to vomit. In the midst of it all, Carmy finds himself spiraling in the confined space of the walk-in fridge and confides in Tina about his lack of presence in the restaurant due to his relationship with Claire. Unbeknownst to him, Claire overhears this revelation after entering the kitchen, becoming upset and leaving.

A heated argument ensues between Richie and Carmy, but as Carmy reflects on his mistakes, he plays a missed voicemail from Claire before the service began. The voicemail reveals Claire's confession of love for him. Eventually, Carmy is freed from the fridge, while Richie appears defeated, and Sydney finds fulfillment in impressing her father.
