>>213520226the source of drama is his older brother who committed suicide right before the start of the show. jeremy allen white's character is a nervous wreck. little flashbacks show the dysfunction of the family.
goal in season 1 is getting out of debt. goal in season 2 is opening the fine dining restaurant of his dreams. he already has max level chef stats starting the show and worked with god tier chefs. if his goal was to just run the sandwich shop he could do that but he makes it harder by having higher goals and sacrificing his personal life for work. it kinda reminds me of the movie whiplash and chasing perfection.
the show ditches the sandwich shop shit after season 1 and becomes more fine dining/celebrity chef cameo jerk off shit. all the minorities he works with get their own episodes. his cousin is the best character.
