I am starving.

Let's get a family meal going, yeah?

- Okay what do you want?

- Do we have any Cherrystones left?

- I think so.

- Cioppino, I made a stock earlier.

It's in the walk-in.

- Sounds good.

- Thank you.

Hey.

- I tried to get a table earlier,

but the line was around the block.

- You don't have to wait just call.

You'll never have to wait for a table.

- Okay.

I brought you something.

- [Mark] What?

- When you told me about your grandma,

and how she raised you,

and how much you love her,

it made me think about

my grandma, and I just,

I don't know, she collects 'em.

And, I just thought.

I know it's stupid.

- No, no.

I love it.

I'll cherish it always.

Listen I can't thank

you enough for all this.

I mean it looks incredible.

- It's my job.

Yeah but I never could've imagined this.

- Sure you could've.

You were just so focused on

what you didn't want this place

to be, you didn't see

it for what it could be.

- Yeah I guess that's true.

- Most people think like that though.

- Like what?

- Well if they know the

answer to everything,

or if they think they know everything,

they don't try.

But, if you live your life like that,

you'll never be surprised.

- I hope I'm not like that.

- I don't think you are.

- You saying I don't know

the outcome to things?

- No, I'm saying you

don't act like you do.

You wouldn't have opened this place

if you were that insightful.

- So now this place is destined to fail?

- Okay wait, that's not what I meant.

I meant that I admire you

for taking such risks.

- Well I had good help.

- Now you're being modest.

- I've been accused of a

lot of things, never that.

- I have to go.

I have an early meeting in the morning.

- Yes of course.

Thank you again, Gillian.

- You're welcome.

- Okay.

- [Gillian] Right.

- Gill, Gillian?

- Yeah?

- Do you think--

- [Peter] Found it.

Bought it in Montreal last spring.

I've been saving it for, oh Gillian?

I didn't know you were here.

Would you like some?

- Oh no, thank you.

- Nonsense.

It's a '98.

- No seriously, I'm okay.

I just came to drop

something off for Mark.

- Charming, not for

the dining room I hope.

What?

- Peter, why don't you take

this back in the kitchen,

and we'll crack it open

with the entire staff?

- Did you hear me when

I said it was a '98?

- I will pay you back

just go, and I will see

Gillian out.

- Gillian, it was a

pleasure working with you.

- You too.

- The place looks better than I expected.

- Thank you.

- I think that's the

closest you're ever going

to get to a compliment with him.

- I'll take it.

I really do have to go though.

- Okay well goodnight.

(laughing)

Goodnight.
