Other waiters, cooks, and bus boys have their issues and personalities. Bishop, the dishwasher, is their counselor. During this shift, Monty may learn something, Dean makes his decision, Dan makes a play for the not-yet-18 hostess, customers get their comeuppance, the guys all play the in-house homophobic flashing game, the gals demonstrate why they won't, and Mitch gets the last word.

of the game to him.

Oh, virgin blood.

Follow me.

Come here.

I wanna talk to you.

Thanks, Raddimus.

Be gentle.

- There you go, Dean.

- Aw, thanks, Tyla. You rock.

Yeah, Tyla, you're the coolest girI

in the whole schooI.

Hey, man.

Tyla, every time I look at you,

I wish I was a lesbian.

Oh, what a coincidence.

Every time I look at you,

- I'm glad I'm a lesbian.

- Ouch.

Oh, hey, Christy.

It's just Calvin callin'.

Just starting to work the double.

You owe me.

No, I was kiddin'.

You don't really owe me anything.

So, I was just callin' ya,

'cause it's kind of dead here right now.

So, I don't know.

Give me a call back.

I'm at work.

Duh. Duh.

Come on. Talk to me, Goose.

What's wrong?

Remember Chet Miller

from high schooI?

- Tall guy, kind of smelled like my dad's ass?

- That's the one.

My mother told me he graduated with his

bachelor's degree in electricaI engineering.

Yeah, so?

Well, you know, we were in all

the same classes in high schooI.

We're the same f***ing age.

Well, yeah.

But electricaI engineering?

- Come on. Screw that noise.

- Yeah, but come on, man.

We haven't even graduated

from community college.

Haven't even got

our A.A. degree.

Then when we do, what? What the hell

can you do with an A.A. degree anyway?

You can get a job substitute teaching

for retarded kids or something.

Exactly.

That's the dish area back there.

This is where you pick up the food.

That's Floyd. Floyd!

Welcome to Thunderdome, b*tch.

Okay, that's the dry area, man.

That's where we keep all the condiments.

Right over here.

This is the cooler.

The milk and vegetables, whatever.

Back here is the freezer.

You'll find the meat-

Okay, so let me tell you

about this little game we play.

I assume Monty went over

the basic idea with you, right?

- Yeah, he-

- You know the object, right?

To have the other guy

look at you naked.

Are you okay with that?

What are you, some kind of a f***ing sick,

demented pervert, huh?

- No. I was- He told me.

- Come on, bro. I'm just f***ing with you.

Look, man, we're all sick.

All right?

Now, look.

The main thing to remember

is to get the other guy to unknowingly

look at your cock and balls.

Okay, don't just f***ing pull down your pants

and say, "Look at my dick!"

You gotta be sneaky.

I'm gonna go through the positions with you.

The first one's the easiest.

Call that one "The Look. "

All right?

All you gotta do, pull down your pants

reaI quick, show 'em the goods.

If they look, you get to

kick 'em in the ass once.

Second one is called

"The Brain. " Right?

What you gotta do is isolate your nuts

with your fist.

Okay, now, take the time

to look at it, okay?
