1
00:00:00,734 --> 00:00:02,302
All right. Jon is leaving.
2
00:00:02,302 --> 00:00:03,570
I repeat.
3
00:00:03,570 --> 00:00:05,205
Jon is leaving the bar.
4
00:00:05,205 --> 00:00:06,740
Copy that.
5
00:00:06,740 --> 00:00:08,541
Uh, let's go ahead
and strike everything.
6
00:00:12,278 --> 00:00:15,081
Guys, looks like
we're walking out on this one.
7
00:00:15,081 --> 00:00:17,717
[dramatic music]
8
00:00:21,454 --> 00:00:22,856
narrator: For over 30 years,
9
00:00:22,856 --> 00:00:24,824
Jon Taffer has traveled
the country,
10
00:00:24,824 --> 00:00:28,828
saving hundreds of bars
from failure and ruin.
11
00:00:28,828 --> 00:00:31,631
The past few years had been
harder on our country
12
00:00:31,631 --> 00:00:34,100
than I've ever seen before.
13
00:00:34,100 --> 00:00:36,403
But now,
in a post-pandemic world,
14
00:00:36,403 --> 00:00:39,339
restaurants and bars
are seeing a massive surge
15
00:00:39,339 --> 00:00:40,340
in business...
16
00:00:40,340 --> 00:00:41,641
Yeah.
17
00:00:41,641 --> 00:00:43,643
narrator:
...and a customer base
18
00:00:43,643 --> 00:00:45,678
that has
a much higher expectation
19
00:00:45,678 --> 00:00:47,614
for quality food and drinks.
20
00:00:47,614 --> 00:00:49,382
Not a huge fan of this.
21
00:00:49,382 --> 00:00:51,351
narrator: So I'm on a mission
to save bars
22
00:00:51,351 --> 00:00:53,253
that had been struggling
23
00:00:53,253 --> 00:00:55,288
to keep up with the new
landscape of our industry.
24
00:00:55,288 --> 00:00:57,123
[cheering]
25
00:00:57,123 --> 00:00:59,125
narrator: So, now,
Jon is back out on the road
26
00:00:59,125 --> 00:01:01,327
and heading to Meridian, Idaho
27
00:01:01,327 --> 00:01:04,497
to rescue
The Hideaway Bar & Grill.
28
00:01:04,497 --> 00:01:06,699
This is a new era
for our country,
29
00:01:06,699 --> 00:01:08,735
so we need to raise the bar
30
00:01:08,735 --> 00:01:10,470
and rise to these challenges.
31
00:01:12,806 --> 00:01:14,574
narrator: In 2012,
32
00:01:14,574 --> 00:01:16,176
construction company
entrepreneur,
33
00:01:16,176 --> 00:01:17,744
Dwayne Fulbright,
34
00:01:17,744 --> 00:01:20,847
bought his first bar,
Harry's Meridian Grill.
35
00:01:20,847 --> 00:01:22,549
I decided to build a bar
36
00:01:22,549 --> 00:01:25,385
because when everything
went down in 2008,
37
00:01:25,385 --> 00:01:28,421
I got bored
and thought it would be fun.
38
00:01:29,823 --> 00:01:32,158
narrator:
After a successful few years,
39
00:01:32,158 --> 00:01:34,461
Dwayne moved the bar
to its current location
40
00:01:34,461 --> 00:01:38,364
and renamed it
The Hideaway Bar & Grill.
41
00:01:38,364 --> 00:01:41,367
Well, my background is in
homebuilding and construction.
42
00:01:41,367 --> 00:01:43,436
And I'm hands-on.
I like to be involved.
43
00:01:43,436 --> 00:01:47,674
So I decided to design
and build my own building.
44
00:01:47,674 --> 00:01:49,409
I spent, on the total project,
45
00:01:49,409 --> 00:01:52,378
about $1.7 million to build it.
46
00:01:53,947 --> 00:01:56,483
When I first
got this building going,
47
00:01:56,483 --> 00:02:00,687
The Hideaway Bar & Grill
made about $25,000 per month.
48
00:02:00,687 --> 00:02:02,789
narrator: But despite
the initial success,
49
00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:05,325
Dwayne's bar struggled
to hire and retain
50
00:02:05,325 --> 00:02:08,661
the sizable number
of employees needed to run it.
51
00:02:08,661 --> 00:02:11,264
When I tell people I work
at The Hideaway Bar & Grill,
52
00:02:11,264 --> 00:02:13,700
they're like, "Oh, no.
Why? Like why are you there?"
53
00:02:15,902 --> 00:02:18,238
Well, we've had staffing
issues and not having
enough employees.
54
00:02:18,238 --> 00:02:19,372
It's rough.
55
00:02:19,372 --> 00:02:21,674
We used to have 45 employees
56
00:02:21,674 --> 00:02:23,276
and now we have 13.
57
00:02:23,276 --> 00:02:26,312
Dwayne isn't super
into the hiring process.
58
00:02:26,312 --> 00:02:28,815
They just hire on the spot
and people just get thrown in.
59
00:02:28,815 --> 00:02:31,384
And I think we're having
problems with turnover
60
00:02:31,384 --> 00:02:32,886
because there's
not much training.
61
00:02:32,886 --> 00:02:34,921
We've had people that
show up for like an hour
62
00:02:34,921 --> 00:02:36,422
and then they're like,
"And we're done."
63
00:02:38,658 --> 00:02:39,692
We do not.
64
00:02:39,692 --> 00:02:41,294
We Google it.
65
00:02:41,294 --> 00:02:42,896
[chuckles]
66
00:02:42,896 --> 00:02:45,832
narrator: With
staffing and turnover
threatening operations,
67
00:02:45,832 --> 00:02:47,834
Dwayne turned
to his girlfriend, Vanesa,
68
00:02:47,834 --> 00:02:49,569
to manage The Hideaway.
69
00:02:49,569 --> 00:02:50,870
Well, before working
at The Hideaway,
70
00:02:50,870 --> 00:02:52,605
I had no training.
71
00:02:52,605 --> 00:02:53,840
My previous background,
72
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,475
it's auto financing
73
00:02:55,475 --> 00:02:56,843
aside from lending.
74
00:02:56,843 --> 00:02:57,944
Camri, did you lock your till?
75
00:02:57,944 --> 00:02:59,412
What?
76
00:02:59,412 --> 00:03:01,014
-Did you lock your till?
-Yes.
77
00:03:01,014 --> 00:03:03,283
narrator: But with no
hospitality experience
78
00:03:03,283 --> 00:03:04,951
of her own,
79
00:03:04,951 --> 00:03:07,420
Vanesa did little
to help the bar find success.
80
00:03:07,420 --> 00:03:09,822
We're not making money
and we're losing money.
81
00:03:09,822 --> 00:03:12,292
narrator: And as the business
continued to decline,
82
00:03:12,292 --> 00:03:14,961
the staff began noticing
bad habits with Dwayne
83
00:03:14,961 --> 00:03:16,930
forming at the bar.
84
00:03:16,930 --> 00:03:20,466
Dwayne typically will be eating
at the bar with a beer
85
00:03:20,466 --> 00:03:22,702
and we all have been
kind of trained
86
00:03:22,702 --> 00:03:24,771
that once it gets down
to a certain point,
87
00:03:24,771 --> 00:03:26,639
you refill the beer.
88
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,508
narrator: And Dwayne's drinking
89
00:03:28,508 --> 00:03:31,444
not only affects the staff
but the customers too.
90
00:03:31,444 --> 00:03:32,812
Dwayne will sit at the bar
and have a few beers
91
00:03:32,812 --> 00:03:34,547
and everyone will watch.
92
00:03:34,547 --> 00:03:36,616
All the customers and regulars
know who he is
93
00:03:36,616 --> 00:03:38,051
and know what he's doing.
94
00:03:38,051 --> 00:03:39,953
Dwayne doesn't have a very good
95
00:03:39,953 --> 00:03:42,288
representation right now.
96
00:03:42,288 --> 00:03:44,324
I get along really well
with most of my customers.
97
00:03:44,324 --> 00:03:46,859
Like, you know, sometimes
I sit and have beers with them.
98
00:03:46,859 --> 00:03:50,830
Dwayne's drinking does create
a problem here at the bar.
99
00:03:50,830 --> 00:03:54,634
Customers see him
as just the town drunk.
100
00:03:54,634 --> 00:03:57,670
And I'm worried because
I'm having major heart surgery
101
00:03:57,670 --> 00:03:59,539
and I'm gonna go through
three to six months
102
00:03:59,539 --> 00:04:01,007
painful recovery
103
00:04:01,007 --> 00:04:03,476
and I'm leaving Dwayne
like this.
104
00:04:03,476 --> 00:04:06,512
narrator: So with Vanesa's
future at The Hideaway in doubt
105
00:04:06,512 --> 00:04:08,014
and Dwayne's bad habits
106
00:04:08,014 --> 00:04:10,083
becoming more apparent
by the day,
107
00:04:10,083 --> 00:04:13,720
the couple now find themselves
losing $6,000 a month
108
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,522
and are six months away
from closing.
109
00:04:16,522 --> 00:04:18,758
I see him all stressed out
all the time.
110
00:04:18,758 --> 00:04:20,460
narrator: So Dwayne and Vanessa
111
00:04:20,460 --> 00:04:22,795
had made the decision
to pull back the doors,
112
00:04:22,795 --> 00:04:24,397
bust open the books,
113
00:04:24,397 --> 00:04:26,733
and make a call for help
to "Bar Rescue."
114
00:04:26,733 --> 00:04:29,636
Whatever we're trying,
it's not working.
115
00:04:29,636 --> 00:04:31,504
We don't have a plan B.
116
00:04:31,504 --> 00:04:33,906
Clearly, we have all the eggs
in one basket.
117
00:04:33,906 --> 00:04:35,575
If The Hideaway doesn't survive,
118
00:04:35,575 --> 00:04:37,410
we'll lose everything
that we have.
119
00:04:46,870 --> 00:04:48,839
Spending time in Boise,
120
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,741
one thing that has
really stood out
121
00:04:50,741 --> 00:04:53,978
is the community and their
support of local businesses.
122
00:04:53,978 --> 00:04:55,679
-Hi there.
-Hello, sir. How are you?
123
00:04:55,679 --> 00:04:57,548
-Good. Nice to meet you.
-Very. It's a pleasure.
124
00:04:59,383 --> 00:05:00,684
[sighs] Hi, everybody.
125
00:05:00,684 --> 00:05:01,719
-Hi.
-Hi.
126
00:05:01,719 --> 00:05:02,987
-Hi.
-Hello.
127
00:05:02,987 --> 00:05:04,655
-What's your name?
-Rose.
128
00:05:04,655 --> 00:05:06,423
-Rose? You work at the bar?
-Yes, I do.
129
00:05:06,423 --> 00:05:08,626
And although the rescues
had been challenging
130
00:05:08,626 --> 00:05:09,627
in one way or another...
131
00:05:09,627 --> 00:05:10,995
That's definitely wrong.
132
00:05:10,995 --> 00:05:13,364
Hey, guys,
we're in emergency mode now.
133
00:05:13,364 --> 00:05:14,665
-Tickets are still piling up.
-Where's table five drinks?
134
00:05:14,665 --> 00:05:16,367
I'm working on them, sir.
135
00:05:16,367 --> 00:05:17,735
The printer is not working.
136
00:05:17,735 --> 00:05:19,436
Wrong.
It's supposed to be half ounce.
137
00:05:19,436 --> 00:05:21,071
We're at 15 minutes.
138
00:05:21,071 --> 00:05:22,806
[balloon popping]
139
00:05:22,806 --> 00:05:24,008
That's it.
140
00:05:25,809 --> 00:05:27,845
We're sorry. We love you.
Please come back.
141
00:05:27,845 --> 00:05:30,781
...they've been very rewarding,
each in its own unique way.
142
00:05:30,781 --> 00:05:33,417
[cheers and applause]
143
00:05:33,417 --> 00:05:34,652
-Whoa.
-Wow.
144
00:05:35,819 --> 00:05:37,354
It's awesome.
145
00:05:37,354 --> 00:05:39,056
Oh.
146
00:05:39,056 --> 00:05:40,557
You happy?
147
00:05:40,557 --> 00:05:41,992
Yeah.
I mean, you outdid yourself.
148
00:05:41,992 --> 00:05:43,427
Thank you.
149
00:05:43,427 --> 00:05:44,795
So now I'm in Meridian,
150
00:05:44,795 --> 00:05:46,463
a fast-growing city
151
00:05:46,463 --> 00:05:48,699
just west of Boise.
152
00:05:48,699 --> 00:05:49,900
And for this recon,
153
00:05:49,900 --> 00:05:51,468
I've asked one of the top chefs
154
00:05:51,468 --> 00:05:53,337
in my hometown in Las Vegas
155
00:05:53,337 --> 00:05:55,105
to come help me
check this place out.
156
00:05:55,105 --> 00:05:56,507
Nice to have you back, Jen.
157
00:05:56,507 --> 00:05:57,975
Yes. Thanks for having me again.
158
00:05:57,975 --> 00:05:59,643
narrator: For the kitchen,
159
00:05:59,643 --> 00:06:01,445
Jon brings in
Chef Jennifer Murphy,
160
00:06:01,445 --> 00:06:03,781
a 15-year veteran
of Las Vegas fine dining,
161
00:06:03,781 --> 00:06:06,417
who is overseeing kitchens
at the Bellagio, MGM Grand,
162
00:06:06,417 --> 00:06:08,852
and Caesars Palace.
163
00:06:08,852 --> 00:06:09,987
So we're in Idaho.
164
00:06:09,987 --> 00:06:11,889
In Meridian, Idaho.
165
00:06:11,889 --> 00:06:14,758
We're about 20 miles
outside of Boise.
166
00:06:14,758 --> 00:06:16,593
Idaho is not
a very wealthy state,
167
00:06:16,593 --> 00:06:18,896
but this area has
a median household income
168
00:06:18,896 --> 00:06:21,398
of about $91,000.
169
00:06:21,398 --> 00:06:23,500
Fifty percent above
the national average.
170
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:25,069
And the cost of living here
is low.
171
00:06:25,069 --> 00:06:26,937
So if you're making
80 grand here,
172
00:06:26,937 --> 00:06:28,772
-you're doing pretty good.
-That's right.
173
00:06:28,772 --> 00:06:30,641
So this bar is called
The Hideaway,
174
00:06:30,641 --> 00:06:32,643
and it's been here
for four years.
175
00:06:32,643 --> 00:06:34,845
Look at the size of this place.
176
00:06:34,845 --> 00:06:36,113
There's the owner, Dwayne.
177
00:06:36,113 --> 00:06:37,948
[laughter]
178
00:06:37,948 --> 00:06:39,616
There you go.
179
00:06:39,616 --> 00:06:41,151
Dwayne was in
the construction business.
180
00:06:41,151 --> 00:06:42,753
Always wanted to own a bar.
181
00:06:42,753 --> 00:06:44,388
So he bought a bar,
182
00:06:44,388 --> 00:06:46,590
closed it
'cause he didn't like the lease.
183
00:06:46,590 --> 00:06:47,858
Then built this bar.
184
00:06:47,858 --> 00:06:49,560
Spent over $1,000,000 on it.
185
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,829
Now he's losing $6,500 a month.
186
00:06:51,829 --> 00:06:54,965
And his reputation--
I gotta read you this.
187
00:06:54,965 --> 00:06:56,600
This is a review.
188
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,102
An online review.
189
00:06:58,102 --> 00:07:01,004
Sat at a table next
to a very drunk person
190
00:07:01,004 --> 00:07:02,439
while ordering dinner.
191
00:07:02,439 --> 00:07:04,074
My server was awesome,
192
00:07:04,074 --> 00:07:06,009
but when he asked
the drunk person a question,
193
00:07:06,009 --> 00:07:08,045
I realized
the drunk was his boss.
194
00:07:08,045 --> 00:07:09,880
How the hell does that work?
195
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,715
He was rude to the employee
196
00:07:11,715 --> 00:07:14,051
like he was interrupting
his booze time.
197
00:07:14,051 --> 00:07:15,686
Wow. That's crazy.
198
00:07:15,686 --> 00:07:16,787
I've never heard
of anything like this.
199
00:07:16,787 --> 00:07:17,821
-No.
-Listen to this one.
200
00:07:17,821 --> 00:07:18,956
Worst service ever.
201
00:07:18,956 --> 00:07:20,791
Even the regulars have to wait.
202
00:07:20,791 --> 00:07:23,060
The drunk owner tries
to jump in and help,
203
00:07:23,060 --> 00:07:25,129
breaks a glass
in the drink well,
204
00:07:25,129 --> 00:07:26,764
and stumbles back to his stool.
205
00:07:26,764 --> 00:07:27,965
This place is a joke.
206
00:07:27,965 --> 00:07:29,700
Sounds like a joke.
207
00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:31,635
Reviews like these
are a major red flag,
208
00:07:31,635 --> 00:07:33,871
especially when it comes
to an owner's behavior
209
00:07:33,871 --> 00:07:35,072
in his own bar.
210
00:07:35,072 --> 00:07:37,541
So that's Dwayne,
211
00:07:37,541 --> 00:07:39,710
and he's now in debt
$1,000,000 too.
212
00:07:39,710 --> 00:07:41,612
Wow. That's incredible.
213
00:07:41,612 --> 00:07:42,846
You still need
the margarita or do--
214
00:07:42,846 --> 00:07:44,615
-I'll make it right now.
-Okay.
215
00:07:44,615 --> 00:07:46,817
-I'm making all the other ones.
-Okay.
216
00:07:46,817 --> 00:07:48,218
There is Vanesa.
217
00:07:48,218 --> 00:07:50,220
Vanesa is Dwayne's girlfriend
218
00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:52,022
of about five years.
219
00:07:52,022 --> 00:07:53,657
They can't afford a manager,
220
00:07:53,657 --> 00:07:54,992
so Vanesa,
221
00:07:54,992 --> 00:07:56,860
who's in a real estate business,
222
00:07:56,860 --> 00:07:59,129
and Dwayne, who's in
a construction business,
223
00:07:59,129 --> 00:08:00,631
are running this place.
224
00:08:00,631 --> 00:08:01,732
Sounds like a recipe
for disaster.
225
00:08:01,732 --> 00:08:02,833
Completely.
226
00:08:02,833 --> 00:08:03,967
-You guys ready?
-Yeah.
227
00:08:03,967 --> 00:08:05,502
-Okay.
-There's Camri.
228
00:08:05,502 --> 00:08:07,070
She's a bartender.
229
00:08:07,070 --> 00:08:08,639
Look at how she's the only one
working
230
00:08:08,639 --> 00:08:10,073
behind the bar tonight.
231
00:08:10,073 --> 00:08:13,110
And there's Alexis
and she's a server.
232
00:08:13,110 --> 00:08:14,745
How's your night?
233
00:08:16,180 --> 00:08:18,115
So there's Filiberto.
234
00:08:18,115 --> 00:08:19,583
He's our cook.
235
00:08:21,652 --> 00:08:24,488
Never seen somebody stir French
fries in the fryer like that.
236
00:08:24,488 --> 00:08:25,622
No. [laughs]
237
00:08:25,622 --> 00:08:27,958
Uh, where are our plastic--
238
00:08:27,958 --> 00:08:31,195
uh, you guys took away
the Coke cups.
239
00:08:31,195 --> 00:08:32,596
Who's he talking to?
240
00:08:32,596 --> 00:08:34,598
Uh, I'll just use the glass.
241
00:08:34,598 --> 00:08:35,999
Hands on the floor?
242
00:08:35,999 --> 00:08:37,267
Oh, boy.
243
00:08:37,267 --> 00:08:39,069
So for recon tonight,
244
00:08:39,069 --> 00:08:42,840
I have Nikki West
from WOW Country Radio here.
245
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,174
You know, radio people,
246
00:08:44,174 --> 00:08:45,943
they do loads of bars
all the time.
247
00:08:45,943 --> 00:08:47,945
And she's a bar person
and was a bartender.
248
00:08:47,945 --> 00:08:50,881
So she came with a girlfriend
of hers, Nicole.
249
00:08:50,881 --> 00:08:52,249
Hello.
250
00:08:52,249 --> 00:08:53,917
Hi.
251
00:08:53,917 --> 00:08:55,085
How's it going?
252
00:08:55,085 --> 00:08:56,253
-How are you?
-Good.
253
00:08:56,253 --> 00:08:57,554
What are you two
drinking tonight?
254
00:08:57,554 --> 00:08:58,889
Uh, I heard about a Hideaway.
255
00:08:58,889 --> 00:09:00,924
Yeah. That one has
lemon vodka in it.
256
00:09:00,924 --> 00:09:01,992
-Perfect.
-That one? Okay.
257
00:09:01,992 --> 00:09:03,160
Yeah, let's go with that.
258
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,528
I'll do a Lynchburg Lemonade.
259
00:09:04,528 --> 00:09:06,864
Okay. Got it.
260
00:09:06,864 --> 00:09:08,999
The vibe in the bar
was pretty sterile.
261
00:09:08,999 --> 00:09:10,734
It felt pretty stark
262
00:09:10,734 --> 00:09:13,570
and kind of rough,
a little masculine.
263
00:09:13,570 --> 00:09:15,706
When we walked in, that was
the first thing that I felt.
264
00:09:15,706 --> 00:09:17,641
The weird, bright orange
and then like,
265
00:09:17,641 --> 00:09:19,176
"Did you finish this?
266
00:09:19,176 --> 00:09:21,245
Were you planning
on painting soon?"
267
00:09:21,245 --> 00:09:23,280
I'm a do-it-yourselfer
and the whole time I'm like,
268
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:24,982
"Okay, so I need to paint this.
269
00:09:24,982 --> 00:09:27,117
I need to do this."
It needed love, yeah.
270
00:09:28,252 --> 00:09:30,320
-Do we have menus?
-I'm not sure--
271
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,955
All right.
272
00:09:31,955 --> 00:09:33,223
Oh, yeah, and could we get
a food menu too?
273
00:09:33,223 --> 00:09:34,658
Yeah.
274
00:09:34,658 --> 00:09:35,759
[laughter]
275
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:37,327
Food menu.
276
00:09:37,327 --> 00:09:38,996
Now, why wouldn't she have
brought them the menu naturally,
277
00:09:38,996 --> 00:09:40,664
right, try to sell the food?
278
00:09:40,664 --> 00:09:42,132
Right. There should be
a sequence of service.
279
00:09:42,132 --> 00:09:43,734
It doesn't seem
like that exists.
280
00:09:43,734 --> 00:09:45,202
Yeah.
281
00:09:45,202 --> 00:09:47,704
-Thank you.
-There you go.
282
00:09:47,704 --> 00:09:50,874
This menu is overwhelming.
283
00:09:50,874 --> 00:09:52,175
-It's like--
-And the menu is very dirty.
284
00:09:52,175 --> 00:09:53,343
Yeah.
285
00:09:53,343 --> 00:09:54,978
Well, let's see how this is.
286
00:09:54,978 --> 00:09:56,780
Yeah.
287
00:09:56,780 --> 00:09:57,948
Okay.
288
00:09:59,116 --> 00:10:00,551
Mmm.
289
00:10:02,319 --> 00:10:05,188
Oh, that's really sour.
290
00:10:05,188 --> 00:10:06,223
Yeah.
291
00:10:06,223 --> 00:10:07,724
Oh, she didn't like that.
292
00:10:07,724 --> 00:10:09,359
[groans]
293
00:10:09,359 --> 00:10:11,061
When you get a minute,
can we grab some food from you?
294
00:10:11,061 --> 00:10:12,996
Yeah. Give me one second.
I'll be right with you.
295
00:10:12,996 --> 00:10:14,231
Just one girl here?
296
00:10:14,231 --> 00:10:15,832
Yeah, I guess so.
297
00:10:18,235 --> 00:10:20,938
So he had his hands
on the floor
298
00:10:20,938 --> 00:10:23,273
and now he's holding the glasses
like that.
299
00:10:23,273 --> 00:10:24,908
[groans]
300
00:10:24,908 --> 00:10:26,343
Look at his hands
on the top of the glass.
301
00:10:26,343 --> 00:10:27,778
His palm was pressing
against it.
302
00:10:27,778 --> 00:10:28,912
Whee!
303
00:10:28,912 --> 00:10:30,881
Oh, there's one
for himself too.
304
00:10:30,881 --> 00:10:31,882
Oh, there we go.
305
00:10:31,882 --> 00:10:32,950
[chuckles]
306
00:10:35,752 --> 00:10:38,221
Oh, I have--
something's in my drink.
307
00:10:38,221 --> 00:10:40,757
Oh, my God.
308
00:10:40,757 --> 00:10:41,858
Something's in her drink?
309
00:10:41,858 --> 00:10:42,893
No way.
310
00:10:42,893 --> 00:10:44,061
Ew.
311
00:10:44,061 --> 00:10:45,963
There's more.
312
00:10:45,963 --> 00:10:47,130
Okay. I'm done.
313
00:10:47,130 --> 00:10:48,632
-No.
-No, I'm done.
314
00:10:48,632 --> 00:10:50,033
-[chuckles]
-No.
315
00:10:50,033 --> 00:10:51,868
What are we thinking, ladies?
316
00:10:51,868 --> 00:10:53,637
Uh, we wanna share The Hideaway
mac and cheese please.
317
00:10:53,637 --> 00:10:55,072
-All right.
-Anything else?
318
00:10:55,072 --> 00:10:57,708
Uh, I wanna try the Cuban also.
319
00:10:57,708 --> 00:10:58,775
Good choice.
320
00:10:58,775 --> 00:10:59,843
I'll do the Philly dog.
321
00:10:59,843 --> 00:11:01,244
Okay.
322
00:11:01,244 --> 00:11:03,046
And, um, she's got
floaties in her--
323
00:11:03,046 --> 00:11:04,181
I got a few floaties here.
324
00:11:04,181 --> 00:11:05,649
I don't know if it's pepper or--
325
00:11:05,649 --> 00:11:06,883
Let me remake it for you.
326
00:11:06,883 --> 00:11:08,318
-Thank you.
-It's okay.
327
00:11:10,887 --> 00:11:13,156
Smile.
328
00:11:13,156 --> 00:11:15,125
And what's Dwayne doing?
329
00:11:15,125 --> 00:11:16,860
At the corner of the bar,
talking to those customers,
330
00:11:16,860 --> 00:11:18,328
not paying attention
or anything.
331
00:11:18,328 --> 00:11:20,230
Beautiful. Get it sold.
332
00:11:20,230 --> 00:11:21,431
Get it done.
333
00:11:21,431 --> 00:11:22,432
-There you go.
-Thank you.
334
00:11:22,432 --> 00:11:23,800
Oh.
335
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,703
Uh, actually,
this is a bigger floaty.
336
00:11:26,703 --> 00:11:29,339
That one's even bigger
than it was before.
337
00:11:29,339 --> 00:11:31,141
It's okay. I think I'm okay.
338
00:11:31,141 --> 00:11:32,809
We got another one with
black stuff floating in it.
339
00:11:32,809 --> 00:11:34,344
What is that?
340
00:11:34,344 --> 00:11:35,345
Their ice machine
could have mold in it.
341
00:11:35,345 --> 00:11:36,913
How safe is the food
342
00:11:36,913 --> 00:11:38,949
when you see particles like that
in the drinks?
343
00:11:38,949 --> 00:11:39,983
You can see some filth.
344
00:11:39,983 --> 00:11:41,852
Look there.
345
00:11:41,852 --> 00:11:43,186
Those have not been cleaned
in quite some time.
346
00:11:45,422 --> 00:11:47,257
Look, that is turkey,
ham, bacon.
347
00:11:47,257 --> 00:11:48,425
That's a Cuban sandwich.
348
00:11:48,425 --> 00:11:50,293
-It looks dry.
-It does.
349
00:11:50,293 --> 00:11:52,262
'Cause the pork's
already cooked.
350
00:11:52,262 --> 00:11:54,464
And you have to be very careful
when you apply heat to it again
351
00:11:54,464 --> 00:11:56,299
because you can easily
dry it out.
352
00:11:56,299 --> 00:11:57,801
It's getting drier
by the second too
353
00:11:57,801 --> 00:11:59,236
just sitting there.
354
00:11:59,236 --> 00:12:01,171
Did you see how
he's put the pasta
355
00:12:01,171 --> 00:12:03,340
into the pan with no sauce?
356
00:12:03,340 --> 00:12:04,808
-In a dry pan?
-Yeah.
357
00:12:04,808 --> 00:12:06,443
That's a high flame too.
358
00:12:06,443 --> 00:12:08,345
So that pasta on the bottom
is gonna burn
359
00:12:08,345 --> 00:12:09,946
-and that's gonna get dry.
-It's gonna be all crispy
360
00:12:09,946 --> 00:12:11,448
and it's gonna change
the texture of the pasta.
361
00:12:11,448 --> 00:12:13,050
-It's not gonna be pleasant.
-Yup.
362
00:12:13,050 --> 00:12:14,885
Was that one, okay?
363
00:12:14,885 --> 00:12:16,286
Uh, there's actually like
a bigger floaty in that one.
364
00:12:16,286 --> 00:12:17,421
Awesome.
365
00:12:17,421 --> 00:12:19,022
Perfect.
366
00:12:27,030 --> 00:12:29,232
Maybe it's from the ice
367
00:12:29,232 --> 00:12:32,135
or like the plastic cup.
She's like [indistinct]
368
00:12:32,135 --> 00:12:33,437
Now she's checking.
369
00:12:37,474 --> 00:12:39,109
At this point,
I wouldn't have a whole lot
370
00:12:39,109 --> 00:12:40,444
-of confidence in having...
-No.
371
00:12:40,444 --> 00:12:42,012
...any cocktails here.
372
00:12:42,012 --> 00:12:43,313
Third times.
373
00:12:44,748 --> 00:12:45,916
Perfect.
374
00:12:45,916 --> 00:12:47,250
-Thanks.
-Oh, yeah.
375
00:12:47,250 --> 00:12:49,052
-Much better.
-Thank you.
376
00:12:54,224 --> 00:12:55,859
Oh, that's...
377
00:12:55,859 --> 00:12:57,160
Does it taste better
the third time around?
378
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:58,862
-Uh, it's--no.
-Oh.
379
00:12:58,862 --> 00:13:00,831
It's not pretty much better.
380
00:13:05,235 --> 00:13:07,170
I use the ice out of there.
381
00:13:07,170 --> 00:13:08,772
I guess I didn't triple
check the ice.
382
00:13:08,772 --> 00:13:10,240
I'm not positive.
383
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:11,274
I've never really got
that complaint
384
00:13:11,274 --> 00:13:13,043
since I've been here.
385
00:13:13,043 --> 00:13:15,812
But, but you treat me
like that, like it's--it's--
386
00:13:15,812 --> 00:13:17,881
like if you guys wanna send in
customers like that
387
00:13:17,881 --> 00:13:19,950
and give us reputation,
that's fine.
388
00:13:19,950 --> 00:13:22,819
Um, I'm gonna be done
with the show after this though,
389
00:13:22,819 --> 00:13:24,421
just so you guys know,
390
00:13:24,421 --> 00:13:25,822
'cause if you guys are gonna
represent us like that,
391
00:13:25,822 --> 00:13:27,257
then I'm not a part of it.
392
00:13:28,825 --> 00:13:30,160
Uh, like...
393
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,328
Unbelievable.
394
00:13:33,063 --> 00:13:35,966
Camri said on camera that she's
gonna be done with the show.
395
00:13:35,966 --> 00:13:37,234
That there's no point of her
coming back.
396
00:13:40,437 --> 00:13:42,105
Are you walking out?
397
00:13:42,105 --> 00:13:44,307
Okay. Well, come here for a sec.
398
00:13:51,882 --> 00:13:52,949
No.
399
00:13:56,353 --> 00:13:57,921
No way.
400
00:13:57,921 --> 00:13:59,089
I've never seen
a situation like this
401
00:13:59,089 --> 00:14:01,124
in all my years of "Bar Rescue."
402
00:14:09,266 --> 00:14:10,867
Are they firing her
403
00:14:10,867 --> 00:14:12,269
for something
that took place last week?
404
00:14:26,983 --> 00:14:28,251
Can I have my backpack back?
405
00:14:28,251 --> 00:14:29,586
What backpack?
406
00:14:29,586 --> 00:14:31,054
Get out.
407
00:14:32,022 --> 00:14:33,590
I'm not. Go. Bye.
408
00:14:33,590 --> 00:14:36,159
You're eighty-six'd
from the bar.
409
00:14:36,159 --> 00:14:38,161
What the hell is going
on in this place?
410
00:14:44,868 --> 00:14:45,869
Get out.
411
00:14:46,970 --> 00:14:48,572
I'm not. Go.
412
00:14:48,572 --> 00:14:50,307
But you're gonna say
I'm a thief on camera like that?
413
00:14:50,307 --> 00:14:51,975
Do you want to say that, Vanesa?
414
00:14:51,975 --> 00:14:53,310
You know, my second day,
415
00:14:53,310 --> 00:14:54,544
you went through my purse
looking for cash.
416
00:14:54,544 --> 00:14:55,612
-I didn't wanna--
-Remember?
417
00:14:55,612 --> 00:14:57,114
Camri, you're the--you're--
418
00:14:57,114 --> 00:14:58,115
Don't pull--
don't go [indistinct]
419
00:14:58,115 --> 00:14:59,449
I have it on camera.
420
00:14:59,449 --> 00:15:00,484
Vanesa, do you want
that on camera too?
421
00:15:00,484 --> 00:15:02,386
Hey, bye, bye, bye.
422
00:15:02,386 --> 00:15:03,987
You're eighty-six'd
from the bar.
423
00:15:03,987 --> 00:15:05,922
-Okay. Thank you.
-You're welcome.
424
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,896
Will you guys stop now?
425
00:15:12,896 --> 00:15:14,364
I'm--I'm done.
426
00:15:14,364 --> 00:15:17,034
Like I don't want a part
of this business at all.
427
00:15:17,034 --> 00:15:19,069
Like this was a whole shitshow.
428
00:15:19,069 --> 00:15:23,106
Um, I guess I'm a thief 'cause
I gave a free beer a while ago.
429
00:15:23,106 --> 00:15:25,008
Dwayne needs a reality check.
430
00:15:25,008 --> 00:15:26,610
His business is not successful.
431
00:15:26,610 --> 00:15:28,545
He drinks a lot
and it makes him look silly.
432
00:15:28,545 --> 00:15:30,447
It's embarrassing.
433
00:15:30,447 --> 00:15:32,049
And it's the last place
that people wanna come in.
434
00:15:32,049 --> 00:15:33,950
I just don't wanna ever
come here again.
435
00:15:39,423 --> 00:15:41,391
Look at this.
We have floaties in drinks.
436
00:15:41,391 --> 00:15:43,326
An owner drinking
with customers.
437
00:15:43,326 --> 00:15:45,228
A bartender quit or fired.
438
00:15:45,228 --> 00:15:47,097
I don't even really know
what happened
439
00:15:47,097 --> 00:15:49,566
but clearly they do not have
a handle on their business.
440
00:15:49,566 --> 00:15:51,201
I got to go in there,
talk to Dwayne,
441
00:15:51,201 --> 00:15:53,136
and figure out
what the hell is going on here.
442
00:15:53,136 --> 00:15:54,404
Keep an eye on me, okay?
443
00:15:54,404 --> 00:15:56,106
For sure.
444
00:15:56,106 --> 00:15:59,142
[dramatic music]
445
00:16:00,677 --> 00:16:02,546
narrator:
Jon enters The Hideaway,
446
00:16:02,546 --> 00:16:05,482
a bar located
just west of Boise, Idaho.
447
00:16:05,482 --> 00:16:08,652
The Hideaway is a large
industrial-themed space
448
00:16:08,652 --> 00:16:11,088
with high ceiling,
various table games
449
00:16:11,088 --> 00:16:12,556
scattered
throughout the layout,
450
00:16:12,556 --> 00:16:14,591
and a U-shaped bar
in the center.
451
00:16:14,591 --> 00:16:17,027
With the average
American bar and kitchen
452
00:16:17,027 --> 00:16:19,996
generating
$150 per square foot,
453
00:16:19,996 --> 00:16:22,265
at 6,900 square feet,
454
00:16:22,265 --> 00:16:23,967
The Hideaway would
need to bring in
455
00:16:23,967 --> 00:16:25,936
over $1,000,000 a year
456
00:16:25,936 --> 00:16:29,940
or $86,000 a month
just to break even.
457
00:16:32,342 --> 00:16:35,145
-Oh, there he is right there.
-Uh-hmm.
458
00:16:35,145 --> 00:16:36,246
Hi.
459
00:16:36,246 --> 00:16:37,380
-Hi, there.
-Hi.
460
00:16:37,380 --> 00:16:38,548
That must be his people.
461
00:16:40,717 --> 00:16:42,719
What was in that drink?
Did you figure that out?
462
00:16:42,719 --> 00:16:44,321
No, we don't know.
463
00:16:44,321 --> 00:16:45,655
This is the third one
but I'm not sure.
464
00:16:45,655 --> 00:16:47,090
Would you take a bite for me?
465
00:16:47,090 --> 00:16:48,291
Uh...
466
00:16:48,291 --> 00:16:49,593
Are you scared to take a bite?
467
00:16:49,593 --> 00:16:51,161
I don't know.
I'm scared of this.
468
00:16:51,161 --> 00:16:52,195
-Really?
-Yeah, this messy, greasy--
469
00:16:52,195 --> 00:16:55,632
the bun is totally dry.
470
00:16:57,367 --> 00:16:58,535
Nope.
471
00:16:59,569 --> 00:17:01,204
Nope.
472
00:17:01,204 --> 00:17:03,106
-What's wrong?
-It's super dry.
473
00:17:03,106 --> 00:17:04,474
And the flavor--like
something is wrong with the
flavors combo.
474
00:17:04,474 --> 00:17:06,743
We knew that was gonna be
a dry sandwich.
475
00:17:06,743 --> 00:17:08,078
Something is very wrong.
476
00:17:08,078 --> 00:17:09,613
You know, it's interesting.
477
00:17:09,613 --> 00:17:11,481
-We watched the cook cook it...
-I don't wanna eat it.
478
00:17:11,481 --> 00:17:12,983
...and we knew that this turkey
was gonna be really dry
479
00:17:12,983 --> 00:17:14,084
by the way he had it
on the grill.
480
00:17:14,084 --> 00:17:15,385
Look at this.
481
00:17:15,385 --> 00:17:17,220
It just taste awful.
482
00:17:17,220 --> 00:17:19,189
Never a good sign when somebody
spits out their food.
483
00:17:19,189 --> 00:17:20,223
Okay, guys.
484
00:17:20,223 --> 00:17:21,658
Well, the food? Fail?
485
00:17:21,658 --> 00:17:23,093
both: Food, fail.
486
00:17:23,093 --> 00:17:24,194
-Drinks?
-Drinks fail.
487
00:17:24,194 --> 00:17:25,195
-Fail?
-Fail.
488
00:17:25,195 --> 00:17:26,196
Environment?
489
00:17:26,196 --> 00:17:27,297
both: Fail.
490
00:17:27,297 --> 00:17:28,698
There's nothing going on here.
491
00:17:28,698 --> 00:17:30,133
-We're good. Yeah.
-Let me go to work.
492
00:17:30,133 --> 00:17:31,134
-Thank you, guys.
-Thank you.
493
00:17:31,134 --> 00:17:32,536
Oh, gosh. Thank you.
494
00:17:32,536 --> 00:17:33,670
Can I interrupt your drinking
for a moment?
495
00:17:33,670 --> 00:17:34,671
Sure.
496
00:17:34,671 --> 00:17:37,474
Oh, jeez.
497
00:17:37,474 --> 00:17:40,310
These are two friends of mine
that goes on radio.
498
00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:41,578
-Uh-huh.
-Hi there.
499
00:17:41,578 --> 00:17:43,113
So if she had
a great experience today,
500
00:17:43,113 --> 00:17:44,648
when you went
on the radio tomorrow,
501
00:17:44,648 --> 00:17:46,216
-what would happen?
-I would talk all about it.
502
00:17:46,216 --> 00:17:47,417
And would you fail this place?
503
00:17:47,417 --> 00:17:48,685
Uh, yeah. Absolutely.
504
00:17:48,685 --> 00:17:50,287
She ordered a drink.
505
00:17:50,287 --> 00:17:52,022
It had a black thing
floating in it.
506
00:17:52,022 --> 00:17:53,690
Then the food comes out.
507
00:17:53,690 --> 00:17:56,626
Your cook does something
I've never seen before, Dwayne.
508
00:17:56,626 --> 00:18:01,464
He takes the pasta,
puts it in a dry frying pan.
509
00:18:01,464 --> 00:18:03,266
Let's it cook
in a dry frying pan.
510
00:18:03,266 --> 00:18:05,068
See how the pasta is burnt?
511
00:18:06,403 --> 00:18:07,604
Got you.
512
00:18:07,604 --> 00:18:09,105
Brown pasta.
That's not right, is it?
513
00:18:09,105 --> 00:18:10,640
So now she thinks
this is a bug too
514
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,509
because of the bugs
in there, right?
515
00:18:12,509 --> 00:18:14,177
Who designed this bar?
516
00:18:14,177 --> 00:18:16,146
-Me.
-I can tell.
517
00:18:16,146 --> 00:18:17,380
Have you ever designed
a bar before?
518
00:18:17,380 --> 00:18:19,149
No.
519
00:18:19,149 --> 00:18:20,317
It's the worst designed bar
I've seen in my life.
520
00:18:21,318 --> 00:18:23,086
Okay.
521
00:18:23,086 --> 00:18:24,721
Let me tell you,
the ceilings are too high.
522
00:18:24,721 --> 00:18:26,489
This is the most unintimate
environment ever.
523
00:18:26,489 --> 00:18:27,524
You feel like
you're in a shopping center
524
00:18:27,524 --> 00:18:29,125
when you're in this place.
525
00:18:29,125 --> 00:18:30,260
I look back there,
it's a sea of tables.
526
00:18:30,260 --> 00:18:32,062
I'm staring in the kitchen.
527
00:18:32,062 --> 00:18:34,464
The colors in the walls
are about as old as it gets.
528
00:18:34,464 --> 00:18:36,466
The bar design is so horrible,
529
00:18:36,466 --> 00:18:38,101
you guys just sitting here,
530
00:18:38,101 --> 00:18:39,336
it's like you're staring
in the kitchen, isn't it?
531
00:18:39,336 --> 00:18:40,770
-Yeah.
-Right?
532
00:18:40,770 --> 00:18:41,771
Does that look like
a bar to you?
533
00:18:41,771 --> 00:18:43,039
No.
534
00:18:43,039 --> 00:18:45,308
So this is the worst designed
bar I've ever seen in my life.
535
00:18:45,308 --> 00:18:46,343
It's a joke.
536
00:18:46,343 --> 00:18:47,677
Rookie as it gets.
537
00:18:47,677 --> 00:18:49,613
Even the dish machine
is right there
538
00:18:49,613 --> 00:18:51,481
so you can watch them
every step of the way, right?
539
00:18:51,481 --> 00:18:53,116
Oh, yeah.
540
00:18:53,116 --> 00:18:54,584
So everything you did
is completely wrong.
541
00:18:54,584 --> 00:18:55,852
The layout is wrong.
542
00:18:55,852 --> 00:18:57,354
The kitchen,
I'm staring into it.
543
00:18:57,354 --> 00:18:58,822
The positioning
of that is wrong.
544
00:18:58,822 --> 00:19:00,390
The beer tap.
545
00:19:00,390 --> 00:19:01,791
She's gotta get on a ladder
546
00:19:01,791 --> 00:19:03,693
to take beer out of the top one.
547
00:19:03,693 --> 00:19:05,262
This is wrong.
548
00:19:05,262 --> 00:19:07,664
There is nothing right
about this bar.
549
00:19:07,664 --> 00:19:09,366
Nothing!
550
00:19:09,366 --> 00:19:12,168
Then you come in here,
the food sucks, the drinks suck.
551
00:19:12,168 --> 00:19:14,838
Then I read reviews.
552
00:19:14,838 --> 00:19:16,273
Here we go.
553
00:19:16,273 --> 00:19:18,108
"Sat a table
554
00:19:18,108 --> 00:19:20,210
next to a very drunk person
555
00:19:20,210 --> 00:19:22,112
while ordering dinner."
556
00:19:22,112 --> 00:19:23,680
"My server was awesome,
557
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,416
but when he asked
the drunk person a question,
558
00:19:26,416 --> 00:19:29,085
I realized the drunk
was the boss."
559
00:19:29,886 --> 00:19:31,454
How the hell does that work?
560
00:19:31,454 --> 00:19:33,189
"He was rude to the employee
561
00:19:33,189 --> 00:19:34,591
and was interrupting
562
00:19:34,591 --> 00:19:36,192
his booze time."
563
00:19:36,192 --> 00:19:37,327
Next one.
564
00:19:37,327 --> 00:19:39,396
"Worst service ever."
565
00:19:39,396 --> 00:19:41,264
"Even the regulars
have to wait."
566
00:19:41,264 --> 00:19:44,567
"The drunk owner tries
to jump in and help,
567
00:19:44,567 --> 00:19:46,703
breaks a glass
in the drink well,
568
00:19:46,703 --> 00:19:48,538
stumbles back to his stool."
569
00:19:48,538 --> 00:19:50,674
This place is a joke.
570
00:19:52,809 --> 00:19:54,811
Was that your goal
when you opened this place?
571
00:19:54,811 --> 00:19:56,246
No, sir.
572
00:19:56,246 --> 00:19:57,647
So what do you wanna be,
573
00:19:57,647 --> 00:19:59,382
successful or a drunk?
574
00:19:59,382 --> 00:20:00,517
Which is it?
575
00:20:00,517 --> 00:20:02,285
Successful.
576
00:20:02,285 --> 00:20:04,921
Every drink you take
makes you lose more money,
577
00:20:04,921 --> 00:20:09,192
chase away more customers,
alienate more employees.
578
00:20:09,192 --> 00:20:11,561
The epitome of failure.
579
00:20:11,561 --> 00:20:13,663
So what are you
gonna do it, Dwayne?
580
00:20:13,663 --> 00:20:15,198
Have another drink?
581
00:20:18,668 --> 00:20:19,769
No.
582
00:20:21,738 --> 00:20:22,939
Here is the deal.
583
00:20:22,939 --> 00:20:24,874
I will help you this week
584
00:20:24,874 --> 00:20:26,743
and I'll straighten out
your freaking mess,
585
00:20:26,743 --> 00:20:28,178
but I am gonna carry
586
00:20:28,178 --> 00:20:30,246
an alcohol meter in my pocket
587
00:20:30,246 --> 00:20:33,917
and I am gonna breathalyze you
every freaking day I'm here.
588
00:20:33,917 --> 00:20:37,620
If you fail,
I take my crew and I leave
589
00:20:37,620 --> 00:20:39,422
and you can have your shithole.
590
00:20:39,422 --> 00:20:42,225
[dramatic music]
591
00:20:50,167 --> 00:20:53,370
Every drink you take
makes you lose more money,
592
00:20:53,370 --> 00:20:57,174
chase away more customers,
alienate more employees.
593
00:20:57,174 --> 00:20:59,543
The epitome of failure.
594
00:20:59,543 --> 00:21:01,678
So what are you gonna do
about it, Dwayne?
595
00:21:01,678 --> 00:21:03,247
Have another drink?
596
00:21:06,750 --> 00:21:07,784
No.
597
00:21:09,586 --> 00:21:11,221
Here the deal.
598
00:21:11,221 --> 00:21:12,856
I will help you this week
599
00:21:12,856 --> 00:21:14,858
and I'll straighten out
your freaking mess,
600
00:21:14,858 --> 00:21:16,460
but I am gonna carry
601
00:21:16,460 --> 00:21:18,629
an alcohol meter in my pocket
602
00:21:18,629 --> 00:21:21,899
and I am gonna breathalyze you
every freaking day I'm here.
603
00:21:21,899 --> 00:21:25,636
If you fail,
I take my crew and I leave
604
00:21:25,636 --> 00:21:27,504
and you can have your shithole.
605
00:21:31,241 --> 00:21:32,576
Okay.
606
00:21:32,576 --> 00:21:34,278
-Is that acceptable to you?
-Sure.
607
00:21:34,278 --> 00:21:35,746
You think he can do it?
608
00:21:36,947 --> 00:21:38,448
-Yes.
-You do?
609
00:21:38,448 --> 00:21:39,650
-Yes.
-Well, we'll see. I don't.
610
00:21:39,650 --> 00:21:40,751
Prove me wrong.
611
00:21:41,718 --> 00:21:42,953
See you tomorrow, Dwayne.
612
00:21:42,953 --> 00:21:44,354
Don't eat that, girl.
613
00:21:44,354 --> 00:21:45,489
Thank you.
614
00:21:45,489 --> 00:21:46,657
Don't worry.
615
00:21:50,527 --> 00:21:53,563
That's bullshit.
616
00:21:53,563 --> 00:21:55,732
Dwayne says he doesn't
have a drinking problem,
617
00:21:55,732 --> 00:21:58,669
but his staff
and the reviews say otherwise.
618
00:21:58,669 --> 00:22:01,872
So I'm gonna get to the bottom
of this and determine myself.
619
00:22:01,872 --> 00:22:03,607
Giving an owner a breathalyzer
620
00:22:03,607 --> 00:22:05,943
is something I've done for years
when rescuing bars.
621
00:22:05,943 --> 00:22:09,613
This is a breath analyzer,
an alcohol tester.
622
00:22:09,613 --> 00:22:11,481
Okay.
623
00:22:11,481 --> 00:22:13,283
What I like about it
is it holds them accountable
624
00:22:13,283 --> 00:22:15,652
for their own actions.
625
00:22:15,652 --> 00:22:17,754
both: Zero.
626
00:22:17,754 --> 00:22:20,557
She scored a zero,
so now I'm gonna go to work.
627
00:22:20,557 --> 00:22:22,693
This is my first day
of sobriety.
628
00:22:22,693 --> 00:22:24,761
And when their friends
and family can see
629
00:22:24,761 --> 00:22:27,331
that they're actually
committed to being sober,
630
00:22:27,331 --> 00:22:29,266
that's when the magic happens.
631
00:22:29,266 --> 00:22:31,001
-This is ridiculous.
-Yeah.
632
00:22:31,001 --> 00:22:33,403
I'm still hungry.
633
00:22:33,403 --> 00:22:34,972
Like, you know,
we didn't even get to eat.
634
00:22:34,972 --> 00:22:37,341
So, yeah, hot mess.
635
00:22:37,341 --> 00:22:39,242
I wouldn't come back
to a place that
636
00:22:39,242 --> 00:22:41,945
doesn't have a clean glass
to serve a drink in.
637
00:22:41,945 --> 00:22:43,847
And are you kidding? After two?
638
00:22:43,847 --> 00:22:45,282
After two?
639
00:22:45,282 --> 00:22:46,583
No, we--we're done.
640
00:22:46,583 --> 00:22:47,751
-We're not coming back.
-We're done.
641
00:22:47,751 --> 00:22:49,619
I mean, oh, my gosh.
642
00:22:49,619 --> 00:22:51,855
There is no one
I am referring to this place
643
00:22:51,855 --> 00:22:53,757
as it is right now.
I will tell you that.
644
00:22:53,757 --> 00:22:57,995
So, hopefully, Jon can help it
and we can get some TLC in there
645
00:22:57,995 --> 00:23:00,630
and then maybe I'll come back
and refer people.
646
00:23:00,630 --> 00:23:02,265
How it sits now,
647
00:23:02,265 --> 00:23:03,867
maybe if it was somebody
I really didn't like.
648
00:23:03,867 --> 00:23:05,469
-Uh-huh.
-Like, "I know where go.
649
00:23:05,469 --> 00:23:06,870
Check this place out."
650
00:23:06,870 --> 00:23:08,705
Other than that,
it's not happening.
651
00:23:08,705 --> 00:23:09,706
It's not gonna hit my radio
show, I'll tell you that.
652
00:23:09,706 --> 00:23:10,707
[laughs]
653
00:23:10,707 --> 00:23:11,942
Oh, my God.
654
00:23:11,942 --> 00:23:13,910
-[sighs]
-[sighs]
655
00:23:13,910 --> 00:23:16,947
[dramatic music]
656
00:23:24,921 --> 00:23:26,490
How did it go, guys?
657
00:23:26,490 --> 00:23:27,991
[laughs]
658
00:23:27,991 --> 00:23:29,826
You really wanna know
what you missed out on?
659
00:23:29,826 --> 00:23:31,361
-Sure. Why not?
-Yeah?
660
00:23:31,361 --> 00:23:32,429
'Cause I went home
and went to sleep.
661
00:23:32,429 --> 00:23:34,564
Well, lucky you.
662
00:23:34,564 --> 00:23:35,732
[chuckles]
663
00:23:35,732 --> 00:23:37,300
I was not here last night.
664
00:23:37,300 --> 00:23:39,369
I did hear snippets
of what happened.
665
00:23:39,369 --> 00:23:40,971
We got not one single table.
666
00:23:40,971 --> 00:23:42,506
Oh.
667
00:23:42,506 --> 00:23:44,441
-So I was a food runner.
-What did you do?
668
00:23:44,441 --> 00:23:45,942
Like scare off customers
or what?
669
00:23:45,942 --> 00:23:47,677
I am confused on what's next.
670
00:23:47,677 --> 00:23:50,580
I think we all have something
to learn from Jon.
671
00:23:50,580 --> 00:23:54,584
At the same time, we probably
won't be able to fix everything,
672
00:23:54,584 --> 00:23:57,521
but this has been a great
opportunity so far.
673
00:23:57,521 --> 00:23:59,890
Jon walked in and went straight
to the customers.
674
00:23:59,890 --> 00:24:01,558
-Okay.
-Yeah.
675
00:24:01,558 --> 00:24:03,593
So there was two gals
who hollered over
676
00:24:03,593 --> 00:24:06,329
at Camri for something that
was found in the drink.
677
00:24:06,329 --> 00:24:08,432
-Is that floaties in here?
-Got a few floaties here.
678
00:24:08,432 --> 00:24:10,634
I don't know if it's pepper
or there are like
679
00:24:10,634 --> 00:24:12,035
black flakes in there?
680
00:24:12,035 --> 00:24:13,837
Like...
681
00:24:13,837 --> 00:24:15,505
Then went over to Dwayne
682
00:24:15,505 --> 00:24:17,841
and kind of went at it
with Dwayne.
683
00:24:17,841 --> 00:24:19,109
When I came over,
684
00:24:19,109 --> 00:24:22,012
it was when I heard Jon
685
00:24:22,012 --> 00:24:23,747
going off at Dwayne,
686
00:24:23,747 --> 00:24:26,583
saying something that
Dwayne has never done,
687
00:24:26,583 --> 00:24:28,952
like stumble,
breaking glass in the bar.
688
00:24:28,952 --> 00:24:30,921
"Worst service ever."
689
00:24:30,921 --> 00:24:32,656
"Even the regulars
have to wait."
690
00:24:32,656 --> 00:24:36,026
"The drunk owner tries
to jump in and help,
691
00:24:36,026 --> 00:24:38,095
breaks a glass
in the drink well,
692
00:24:38,095 --> 00:24:40,030
stumbles back to his stool."
693
00:24:40,030 --> 00:24:42,032
This place is a joke.
694
00:24:42,032 --> 00:24:43,834
Ooh.
695
00:24:43,834 --> 00:24:45,602
When Jon came in, it was hard
to keep my mouth shut
696
00:24:45,602 --> 00:24:47,537
'cause I wanna be a mama bear.
697
00:24:47,537 --> 00:24:49,573
Meeting with Jon
will be interesting.
698
00:24:49,573 --> 00:24:51,441
Well, I guess he's gonna tell us
where we're failing,
699
00:24:51,441 --> 00:24:53,643
why we're failing.
700
00:24:53,643 --> 00:24:55,912
His black SUV pulled up.
701
00:24:55,912 --> 00:24:57,481
Shit.
702
00:24:57,481 --> 00:24:58,949
What would it take
for you to kill me?
703
00:24:58,949 --> 00:25:00,784
Tell me how last night went.
704
00:25:00,784 --> 00:25:02,486
Uh, it didn't go so well.
705
00:25:02,486 --> 00:25:04,521
Jon pretty much cut me down.
706
00:25:04,521 --> 00:25:07,524
Some of the stuff that
he said is not true.
707
00:25:07,524 --> 00:25:10,060
He kind of tried
to blame it on me.
708
00:25:10,060 --> 00:25:11,661
I don't have a drinking problem.
709
00:25:14,464 --> 00:25:15,899
[sighs]
710
00:25:15,899 --> 00:25:17,534
-Hi.
-Hi.
711
00:25:17,534 --> 00:25:18,735
You guys are smiling.
712
00:25:18,735 --> 00:25:20,437
-One of us is.
-Yeah.
713
00:25:20,437 --> 00:25:22,405
Last night, Dwayne wouldn't
admit to anything.
714
00:25:22,405 --> 00:25:23,807
He wouldn't even
really say anything.
715
00:25:23,807 --> 00:25:26,743
It's like he didn't care
or he's not engaged.
716
00:25:26,743 --> 00:25:28,545
-Hi.
-Hello.
717
00:25:28,545 --> 00:25:29,746
-You are?
-Vanesa.
718
00:25:29,746 --> 00:25:31,047
Hi, Vanesa. Nice to meet you.
719
00:25:31,047 --> 00:25:32,749
-Nice to meet you too.
-I'm Jon.
720
00:25:32,749 --> 00:25:34,918
Today, I wanna see if I can pull
him out of his shelf.
721
00:25:34,918 --> 00:25:36,753
If I can get him
to say something.
722
00:25:36,753 --> 00:25:40,490
Certainly, admit to his failure,
and then we have a start.
723
00:25:40,490 --> 00:25:41,758
-I'm Alexis.
-Alexis. Nice to meet you.
724
00:25:41,758 --> 00:25:43,426
-And you are?
-I'm Lindsay.
725
00:25:43,426 --> 00:25:44,427
-Hi, Lindsay. Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.
726
00:25:44,427 --> 00:25:45,996
It's okay. You can stay.
727
00:25:45,996 --> 00:25:47,697
-Nice to meet you.
-Dwayne,
728
00:25:47,697 --> 00:25:50,000
would you guys come
with me for a moment?
729
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,502
But it starts
with a breathalyzer.
730
00:25:52,502 --> 00:25:54,504
He's got to pass
the breathalyzer
731
00:25:54,504 --> 00:25:55,972
so we can move forward.
732
00:25:55,972 --> 00:25:57,140
I'm not here
to beat you up, buddy.
733
00:25:57,140 --> 00:25:58,775
I swear I'm here to help you.
734
00:25:58,775 --> 00:26:00,177
-Don't seem like--
-And you're in a jam,
735
00:26:00,177 --> 00:26:02,112
and I'm told you're a good guy.
736
00:26:02,112 --> 00:26:04,548
-Yeah.
-Had a construction company,
737
00:26:04,548 --> 00:26:05,982
-made money. Still do?
-Still do.
738
00:26:05,982 --> 00:26:07,951
Built this bar yourself, right?
739
00:26:07,951 --> 00:26:09,486
Spent million and a half or so?
740
00:26:09,486 --> 00:26:10,620
-Correct.
-Now,
741
00:26:10,620 --> 00:26:12,589
this bar has been open how long?
742
00:26:12,589 --> 00:26:13,924
-Since...
-Seven years.
743
00:26:13,924 --> 00:26:15,625
...October 2017.
744
00:26:15,625 --> 00:26:16,793
So--and how much money
are you losing a month?
745
00:26:16,793 --> 00:26:18,962
I'm told about $6,500?
746
00:26:18,962 --> 00:26:20,764
-Am I close?
-Maybe.
747
00:26:20,764 --> 00:26:22,732
Are you working now
on the construction business
748
00:26:22,732 --> 00:26:24,568
-to feed this?
-Correct.
749
00:26:24,568 --> 00:26:26,203
So you're losing money
every month?
750
00:26:26,203 --> 00:26:27,871
Yeah.
751
00:26:27,871 --> 00:26:29,873
We push through
and we do whatever,
752
00:26:29,873 --> 00:26:32,075
whatever it takes
to keep the lights open.
753
00:26:32,075 --> 00:26:34,477
So do you worry about that
when you go to sleep at night,
754
00:26:34,477 --> 00:26:36,079
when you wake up in the morning?
Is it haunting you?
755
00:26:36,079 --> 00:26:38,081
-'Cause I've been there.
-Yeah.
756
00:26:38,081 --> 00:26:39,883
I mean, yeah, a little bit.
757
00:26:39,883 --> 00:26:43,119
And you're going in a hospital
soon, aren't you?
758
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:44,654
Yes.
759
00:26:44,654 --> 00:26:46,756
And how long are you
gonna be out of the bar?
760
00:26:46,756 --> 00:26:48,592
Six to eight weeks.
761
00:26:48,592 --> 00:26:51,561
For weeks, you're not gonna
be here to support him.
762
00:26:51,561 --> 00:26:52,929
-So are you worried...
-Yup.
763
00:26:52,929 --> 00:26:54,998
...that his drinking
is gonna get worse
764
00:26:54,998 --> 00:26:58,134
without you here
and that he's gonna fail?
765
00:26:58,134 --> 00:27:02,572
I worry about him not having me
to help him out with the staff.
766
00:27:02,572 --> 00:27:05,775
So if I don't get him up
on his feet again,
767
00:27:05,775 --> 00:27:09,579
energized, excited, sober,
768
00:27:09,579 --> 00:27:11,448
I can't dig him out, can I?
769
00:27:12,549 --> 00:27:14,584
-No.
-I understand that.
770
00:27:14,584 --> 00:27:16,219
I wanna set this up
so that he doesn't have
771
00:27:16,219 --> 00:27:18,088
this pressure anymore.
This is my medic.
772
00:27:18,088 --> 00:27:22,025
I've asked him to administer
a breathalyzer for you.
773
00:27:22,025 --> 00:27:25,829
So taking a breathalyzer test
is humiliating.
774
00:27:25,829 --> 00:27:27,030
If I have to take
the breathalyzer,
775
00:27:27,030 --> 00:27:28,765
then he should too.
776
00:27:30,767 --> 00:27:31,968
How do you feel about it?
777
00:27:31,968 --> 00:27:33,803
I know him
and I know he could do it
778
00:27:33,803 --> 00:27:36,539
without having somebody
babysit him.
779
00:27:39,009 --> 00:27:40,677
You want him to stay drunk?
780
00:27:40,677 --> 00:27:42,812
No--well, I know he will--
781
00:27:42,812 --> 00:27:44,948
I know he won't be drinking.
782
00:27:44,948 --> 00:27:46,650
How come you're ignoring
the drinking?
783
00:27:46,650 --> 00:27:48,818
You're not being honest with me.
784
00:27:48,818 --> 00:27:50,020
Come on.
Let's be honest with each other.
785
00:27:50,020 --> 00:27:52,022
When he's drunk on a barstool,
786
00:27:52,022 --> 00:27:54,124
can he run this place when
he's falling off a barstool?
787
00:27:54,124 --> 00:27:55,158
Can he?
788
00:28:00,563 --> 00:28:02,032
He's never fallen off
the barstool.
789
00:28:02,032 --> 00:28:03,300
-That's a lie.
-Okay.
790
00:28:03,300 --> 00:28:04,601
Well, I don't know
if it's a lie.
791
00:28:04,601 --> 00:28:06,102
You know, I don't like to be--
792
00:28:06,102 --> 00:28:07,837
I don't like to be lied to,
and this is a lie.
793
00:28:07,837 --> 00:28:10,140
Until you're straight with me,
I can't help you.
794
00:28:13,886 --> 00:28:16,689
Have you guys ever heard
Dwayne called the town drunk?
795
00:28:16,689 --> 00:28:19,191
Be honest with me. Have you
ever heard that expression?
796
00:28:19,191 --> 00:28:21,560
-No.
-Not till last night.
797
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:22,828
-That's a lie.
-Okay.
798
00:28:22,828 --> 00:28:23,929
Well, I don't know
if it's a lie.
799
00:28:23,929 --> 00:28:25,631
You know, I don't like to be--
800
00:28:25,631 --> 00:28:26,965
I don't like to be lied to,
and this is a lie.
801
00:28:26,965 --> 00:28:28,901
Well, if somebody
saw you that way,
802
00:28:28,901 --> 00:28:31,136
like the reviews
that I read to you,
803
00:28:31,136 --> 00:28:33,972
would it be reasonable
for somebody to say,
804
00:28:33,972 --> 00:28:35,641
"That guy's a drunk?"
805
00:28:35,641 --> 00:28:37,743
-That's not true.
-You're never drunk here?
806
00:28:37,743 --> 00:28:39,078
No.
807
00:28:39,078 --> 00:28:40,679
Is he being honest with me?
Come on.
808
00:28:40,679 --> 00:28:43,148
I've seen him drink a beer here
809
00:28:43,148 --> 00:28:44,149
-but I have not seen him drunk.
-But not be drunk here?
810
00:28:44,149 --> 00:28:45,150
No.
811
00:28:45,150 --> 00:28:47,119
I agree with Jon
812
00:28:47,119 --> 00:28:49,354
as for maybe not drinking
publicly.
813
00:28:49,354 --> 00:28:51,824
Hey, if you own this place,
be respectable
814
00:28:51,824 --> 00:28:53,726
and--and don't drink there,
815
00:28:53,726 --> 00:28:55,627
but I don't agree
that he's a drunk.
816
00:28:55,627 --> 00:28:57,596
Just because somebody
drinks a beer,
817
00:28:57,596 --> 00:29:00,799
I don't think that that can--
that means his a drunk.
818
00:29:00,799 --> 00:29:02,668
Have you ever seen him
drunk here?
819
00:29:02,668 --> 00:29:04,169
-Come on.
-I've seen him drinking, yes.
820
00:29:04,169 --> 00:29:07,940
I don't know what level--
like what is his drunk.
821
00:29:07,940 --> 00:29:09,374
I don't know
what he's like drunk.
822
00:29:09,374 --> 00:29:10,909
I've worked here since January.
823
00:29:10,909 --> 00:29:13,746
I have seen Dwayne drink
at the bar.
824
00:29:13,746 --> 00:29:15,180
He's had a few beers.
825
00:29:15,180 --> 00:29:19,017
Um, he's had like a shot
or two with customers.
826
00:29:19,017 --> 00:29:22,154
But to admit to something
not knowing the extent
827
00:29:22,154 --> 00:29:23,522
to how it would lead,
828
00:29:23,522 --> 00:29:25,791
I honestly didn't
wanna be like,
"Okay, this is my fault."
829
00:29:25,791 --> 00:29:27,192
Well, if you guys
are scared to say it,
830
00:29:27,192 --> 00:29:28,894
there's no reason
for me to be here.
831
00:29:28,894 --> 00:29:30,195
He's not a drunk.
832
00:29:30,195 --> 00:29:32,231
He's got all this money.
He's good to go.
833
00:29:32,231 --> 00:29:34,900
I'll leave.
And you guys can fail.
834
00:29:34,900 --> 00:29:37,336
Until you're straight with me,
I can't help you.
835
00:29:37,336 --> 00:29:39,705
So I'm gonna start walking
towards the door
836
00:29:39,705 --> 00:29:42,341
and somebody better say reality
837
00:29:42,341 --> 00:29:44,243
or I keep walking.
838
00:29:44,243 --> 00:29:47,746
[dramatic music]
839
00:29:47,746 --> 00:29:49,815
Does Dwayne have a drinking
problem that affects
840
00:29:49,815 --> 00:29:53,085
the operation of this bar,
yes or no?
841
00:29:54,987 --> 00:29:56,388
Five,
842
00:29:56,388 --> 00:29:58,056
four,
843
00:29:58,056 --> 00:29:59,691
three.
844
00:29:59,691 --> 00:30:01,226
This failure's gonna be yours.
845
00:30:01,226 --> 00:30:02,628
Two,
846
00:30:04,029 --> 00:30:06,198
one. See you, guys.
847
00:30:06,198 --> 00:30:09,868
[dramatic music]
848
00:30:09,868 --> 00:30:11,837
It's not my place.
849
00:30:11,837 --> 00:30:13,272
Where we come from, you
don't turn your back on people
850
00:30:13,272 --> 00:30:15,240
and I just don't think that
851
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,310
it's my place to cause issues
between the four of us.
852
00:30:20,379 --> 00:30:23,015
-Are we done here?
-I don't know.
853
00:30:24,917 --> 00:30:27,419
Well, Jon came in,
said a bunch of stuff
854
00:30:27,419 --> 00:30:29,688
that's not true
and tried to call me a drunk.
855
00:30:29,688 --> 00:30:30,956
That's not true.
856
00:30:33,458 --> 00:30:36,094
-Let's go sit down.
-Uh-hmm.
857
00:30:36,094 --> 00:30:37,896
I've never heard of that
before in my life.
858
00:30:37,896 --> 00:30:39,765
Either--any of that.
859
00:30:43,969 --> 00:30:45,904
Well, this is awkward.
860
00:30:45,904 --> 00:30:48,807
There is like
a combination of factors
861
00:30:48,807 --> 00:30:52,177
for us to be in the position
that we are.
862
00:30:52,177 --> 00:30:56,782
Not just one person does
everything together.
863
00:30:56,782 --> 00:30:59,384
Jon came in and he
was trying to
864
00:30:59,384 --> 00:31:03,188
have me say that
he's gonna fail when I'm gone.
865
00:31:03,188 --> 00:31:04,857
Sometimes Dwayne's
biggest problems
866
00:31:04,857 --> 00:31:07,192
are that he'll drink
with customers,
867
00:31:07,192 --> 00:31:11,196
but I have no worries about him
getting drunk or anything.
868
00:31:11,196 --> 00:31:13,799
We do need the help
but, at the same time,
869
00:31:13,799 --> 00:31:16,235
we don't need somebody
to come and insult.
870
00:31:16,235 --> 00:31:18,170
At least [indistinct]
for a moment.
871
00:31:18,170 --> 00:31:20,205
[laughs]
872
00:31:23,008 --> 00:31:26,378
[dramatic music]
873
00:31:27,779 --> 00:31:29,114
This is crazy.
874
00:31:29,114 --> 00:31:31,350
I've been rescuing bars
for decades
875
00:31:31,350 --> 00:31:33,218
and I can count on one hand
876
00:31:33,218 --> 00:31:35,120
the amount of bars
that I haven't rescued.
877
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:36,488
-Military, you mother[bleep]
-I didn't say--
878
00:31:36,488 --> 00:31:38,423
I will [bleep] take you out!
879
00:31:38,423 --> 00:31:40,025
I [bleep] you.
880
00:31:40,025 --> 00:31:41,760
-Whoa.
-You understand me?
881
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,395
-Hey, hey, hey, hey.
-So here's the deal.
882
00:31:43,395 --> 00:31:45,764
I'm leaving.
I am not rescuing your bar.
883
00:31:47,532 --> 00:31:49,101
I've had owners lie to me.
884
00:31:49,101 --> 00:31:50,469
I've had employees lie to me.
885
00:31:56,174 --> 00:31:57,910
This guy is so full of [bleep]
it's unbelievable.
886
00:31:57,910 --> 00:31:59,511
As I said...
887
00:31:59,511 --> 00:32:00,913
Let's get out of here, guys.
888
00:32:00,913 --> 00:32:02,547
It's over.
889
00:32:02,547 --> 00:32:05,517
'Cause I don't trust you
'cause you are a slime bucket.
890
00:32:05,517 --> 00:32:08,754
But, in this case,
they're both lying to me.
891
00:32:10,255 --> 00:32:12,224
So I've asked my team
to gather the materials
892
00:32:12,224 --> 00:32:15,527
we've already obtained
to back up my claim
893
00:32:15,527 --> 00:32:17,229
that Dwayne have
a drinking problem
894
00:32:17,229 --> 00:32:19,197
that affects
the operation of this bar.
895
00:32:19,197 --> 00:32:21,199
Let's listen to them.
896
00:32:21,199 --> 00:32:24,870
Dwayne's drinking does create
a problem here at the bar.
897
00:32:24,870 --> 00:32:28,273
Customers see him
as just the--the town drunk.
898
00:32:28,273 --> 00:32:30,275
They see Dwayne
as the town drunk.
899
00:32:30,275 --> 00:32:32,210
So that's it.
900
00:32:32,210 --> 00:32:34,079
And while they're doing that,
I'm gonna think long and hard
901
00:32:34,079 --> 00:32:35,881
if I even wanna rescue this bar.
902
00:32:41,829 --> 00:32:44,932
[dramatic music]
903
00:32:44,932 --> 00:32:46,334
-Just say.
-Just the right glasses.
904
00:32:46,334 --> 00:32:47,902
I'll do the test.
905
00:32:49,036 --> 00:32:50,037
-[laughs]
-What?
906
00:32:50,037 --> 00:32:51,339
I said I'll do the test.
907
00:32:51,339 --> 00:32:52,907
I'll test for you.
908
00:32:52,907 --> 00:32:54,308
-Do the test?
-I said I would do it.
909
00:32:54,308 --> 00:32:55,810
I was like,
"I'll do the breathalyzer."
910
00:32:55,810 --> 00:32:57,445
-"You can test it on me."
-Yeah.
911
00:32:57,445 --> 00:32:58,880
-Hey, I'll do it too.
-Yeah.
912
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,348
-Me too.
-That's fine.
913
00:33:00,348 --> 00:33:02,083
Look, we have teamwork.
914
00:33:02,083 --> 00:33:04,051
A team together.
We have each other's back.
915
00:33:04,051 --> 00:33:06,754
I should have been there
the other night, "I'll take it."
916
00:33:08,789 --> 00:33:11,359
Everyone in that room
is lying to me,
917
00:33:11,359 --> 00:33:14,262
but they have the audacity
to call me a liar?
918
00:33:14,262 --> 00:33:16,898
I didn't come up
with the word town drunk.
919
00:33:16,898 --> 00:33:18,266
Their employees did.
920
00:33:18,266 --> 00:33:20,968
[dramatic music]
921
00:33:22,904 --> 00:33:26,140
-Hello.
-Hello.
922
00:33:26,140 --> 00:33:28,843
I'm guessing
this is not easy for you.
923
00:33:28,843 --> 00:33:31,445
I've done 240 episodes
of "Bar Rescue."
924
00:33:31,445 --> 00:33:33,881
I've never lied once.
925
00:33:33,881 --> 00:33:38,019
I've walked two times
out of 240 episodes.
926
00:33:38,019 --> 00:33:40,054
You guys have called me a liar.
927
00:33:42,857 --> 00:33:44,392
I'd like you to watch this.
928
00:33:48,496 --> 00:33:50,498
Dwayne typically,
when he's done prepping,
929
00:33:50,498 --> 00:33:53,334
he'll be seen at the bar
with a beer,
930
00:33:53,334 --> 00:33:55,937
and we all have been
kind of trained
931
00:33:55,937 --> 00:33:57,872
that once it gets down
to a certain point,
932
00:33:57,872 --> 00:33:59,874
you refill the beer.
933
00:33:59,874 --> 00:34:02,276
So he drinks all night long
automatically.
934
00:34:02,276 --> 00:34:03,444
He doesn't even ask
for the drink.
935
00:34:03,444 --> 00:34:06,080
Now, the coup de grace.
936
00:34:08,549 --> 00:34:12,553
Dwayne's drinking does create
a problem here at the bar.
937
00:34:12,553 --> 00:34:13,955
Why is that?
938
00:34:13,955 --> 00:34:15,523
Customers see him
939
00:34:15,523 --> 00:34:17,892
as just the town drunk.
940
00:34:17,892 --> 00:34:19,393
They see Dwayne
as the town drunk.
941
00:34:19,393 --> 00:34:22,463
That they never see him
actually working.
942
00:34:22,463 --> 00:34:24,065
All he's doing is drinking.
943
00:34:27,268 --> 00:34:28,869
The town drunk.
944
00:34:28,869 --> 00:34:30,304
That's what your employees
think of you.
945
00:34:30,304 --> 00:34:33,207
You see, I won't work
with the town drunk
946
00:34:33,207 --> 00:34:36,077
'cause my reputation
is on this when I leave
947
00:34:36,077 --> 00:34:37,912
and I won't have the town drunk
948
00:34:37,912 --> 00:34:39,480
representing the work
that I've done.
949
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,248
You lied to me
950
00:34:41,248 --> 00:34:43,184
when you said
you didn't want him to drink
951
00:34:43,184 --> 00:34:44,652
'cause I know you don't
952
00:34:44,652 --> 00:34:46,554
'cause you told
my research team otherwise.
953
00:34:46,554 --> 00:34:48,222
You're all liars.
954
00:34:48,222 --> 00:34:50,524
And they're enabling
your failure
955
00:34:50,524 --> 00:34:52,293
by pouring you the next drink.
956
00:34:52,293 --> 00:34:54,462
You'll off the next barstool,
957
00:34:54,462 --> 00:34:58,199
and in a few months,
your destiny is made out,
958
00:34:58,199 --> 00:35:01,268
'cause you're enabling him,
you're enabling him,
959
00:35:01,268 --> 00:35:04,138
and you're enabling him,
and it's your failure.
960
00:35:05,473 --> 00:35:09,610
So 240 episodes of "Bar Rescue."
961
00:35:09,610 --> 00:35:11,412
You know what I'm gonna do now?
962
00:35:11,412 --> 00:35:12,580
I'm gonna walk out.
963
00:35:12,580 --> 00:35:14,448
I'm taking my crew with me.
964
00:35:14,448 --> 00:35:16,317
I am not remodeling your bar.
965
00:35:16,317 --> 00:35:18,586
I want nothing to do with you.
966
00:35:18,586 --> 00:35:22,089
Now, when his drink gets down,
don't forget to refill it?
967
00:35:22,089 --> 00:35:23,591
Go have a drink, buddy.
968
00:35:23,591 --> 00:35:25,126
I'm done.
969
00:35:26,427 --> 00:35:27,695
Guys, pack up.
970
00:35:27,695 --> 00:35:29,697
We're going home.
971
00:35:29,697 --> 00:35:33,034
Let's go to a bar
that is honest with us
972
00:35:33,034 --> 00:35:35,036
and appreciates the work we do.
973
00:35:35,036 --> 00:35:38,472
Our work is too important
to do it here.
974
00:35:38,472 --> 00:35:39,640
Let's pack up, guys.
975
00:35:40,608 --> 00:35:42,410
All right. Jon is leaving.
976
00:35:42,410 --> 00:35:44,679
I repeat,
Jon is leaving the bar.
977
00:35:44,679 --> 00:35:47,415
Copy that.
Stand by for instructions.
978
00:35:47,415 --> 00:35:49,350
I won't work for liars.
979
00:35:49,350 --> 00:35:51,318
They're enabling
Dwayne's failure.
980
00:35:51,318 --> 00:35:54,388
I want nothing to do
with Dwayne's failure.
981
00:35:54,388 --> 00:35:56,157
I'm out of here.
982
00:35:56,157 --> 00:35:58,325
Jon's saying there's no rescue.
983
00:35:58,325 --> 00:35:59,527
Copy you.
984
00:35:59,527 --> 00:36:01,028
Don't stop rolling on this.
985
00:36:01,028 --> 00:36:03,064
Keep rolling. Keep recording.
986
00:36:03,064 --> 00:36:06,100
[dramatic music]
987
00:36:13,140 --> 00:36:15,109
-No.
-No.
988
00:36:16,577 --> 00:36:18,913
It's very quiet in there.
989
00:36:20,181 --> 00:36:21,649
Spin the dials.
990
00:36:21,649 --> 00:36:23,150
Let all the channels
know we're done.
991
00:36:23,150 --> 00:36:24,719
All right. Wrap it up.
992
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,420
Pack everything up.
993
00:36:26,420 --> 00:36:29,323
We're--
we're heading out of here.
994
00:36:29,323 --> 00:36:32,493
I definitely
don't remember her saying that.
995
00:36:32,493 --> 00:36:34,361
Like maybe I just
didn't pay attention
996
00:36:34,361 --> 00:36:36,097
to the choice of words
that she made,
997
00:36:36,097 --> 00:36:38,999
but it's definitely a slap
in the face.
998
00:36:42,303 --> 00:36:43,637
I'm done with it.
999
00:36:55,015 --> 00:36:59,053
Embarrassed, for somebody
to be calling him out liar,
1000
00:36:59,053 --> 00:37:00,287
town drunk.
1001
00:37:02,022 --> 00:37:06,794
I need to figure out this--
the stuff for the time--
1002
00:37:06,794 --> 00:37:08,262
the time that
I'm gonna be gone.
1003
00:37:08,262 --> 00:37:09,730
I could always
1004
00:37:09,730 --> 00:37:11,599
try to push back my surgery.
1005
00:37:14,168 --> 00:37:17,037
I do feel responsible
for why Jon left.
1006
00:37:17,037 --> 00:37:18,773
I honestly don't know
how the relationship
1007
00:37:18,773 --> 00:37:20,775
will be going forward.
1008
00:37:20,775 --> 00:37:25,212
I--I'm the reason why
they're not getting the help.
1009
00:37:25,212 --> 00:37:27,381
I could have spoken up.
1010
00:37:27,381 --> 00:37:30,684
Honestly, I don't know
what the future holds
1011
00:37:30,684 --> 00:37:33,420
for me or The Hideaway.
1012
00:37:33,420 --> 00:37:36,056
Will you guys let me know when
you're done with power, please?
1013
00:37:36,056 --> 00:37:37,258
-Yeah.
-Copy.
1014
00:37:42,663 --> 00:37:44,231
It's really unfortunate.
1015
00:37:44,231 --> 00:37:45,299
You know,
I came here to rescue a bar,
1016
00:37:45,299 --> 00:37:46,634
trying to help somebody
1017
00:37:46,634 --> 00:37:48,736
who's in a serious
financial problem.
1018
00:37:48,736 --> 00:37:50,404
I'm told he's a good guy,
1019
00:37:50,404 --> 00:37:52,373
but until the people around him
1020
00:37:52,373 --> 00:37:54,074
help him improve his life
1021
00:37:54,074 --> 00:37:56,710
and until he wants to,
I can't help him.
1022
00:37:56,710 --> 00:37:59,446
Working out on a rescue
is no small matter.
1023
00:37:59,446 --> 00:38:01,415
The fact is I have
hundreds of people
1024
00:38:01,415 --> 00:38:03,317
who help me rescue a bar.
1025
00:38:03,317 --> 00:38:06,153
Cameramen, soundmen, audio,
construction workers,
1026
00:38:06,153 --> 00:38:08,255
plumbers, electricians,
and they're all working
1027
00:38:08,255 --> 00:38:11,725
to remodel this bar
in a matter of mere days.
1028
00:38:13,527 --> 00:38:16,363
But the dignity
and reputation of this show
1029
00:38:16,363 --> 00:38:21,435
and my name on a bar
means more than Dwayne's lies.
1030
00:38:21,435 --> 00:38:24,438
The good news is
there are other bars I can go to
1031
00:38:24,438 --> 00:38:26,240
where I will make a difference.
1032

1034
00:38:46,327 --> 00:38:47,661
-Thanks, everybody.
-Yeah, thank you.
1035
00:38:47,661 --> 00:38:48,696
-Thanks, Jon.
-Get out of the heat.
