finale as the restaurant finally opened its doors as a fine-dining eatery, culminating in Carmy’s breakdown and, we assume, break-up with Claire , the first episode of this new season acts like a long exhalation.), it’s the day after the opening, and Carmy is back in the restaurant, obsessing – what he does best – about what went wrong, and mostly, about his past.
Apart from the occasional ruthless comment from NYC Chef in the flashbacks, there’s no dialogue until 15 minutes in, and even from that point it’s minimal. But fear not – the second episode is back on form as Carmy sets out new rules for the restaurant and he and Richie spend at least five minutes screaming “f--- you” at each other.
