"What are you doing, Max? Can't you see you're overcooking those eggs?" Then Dave looked over at the hash. "That too." He had a look of disgust on his face. Max took the eggs and potatoes off the griddle before Dave came in to intervene.

As a shadow walked by, Dave hollered, "Sasha!"

"What is it hon?"

"Tell that table that we are going to be delayed. Tell them free dessert."

"Okay." Sasha said after looking Dave and Max down a bit. She didn't say anything else.

After she was out the kitchen Dave looked at Max. "That's coming out of your paycheck. Make it right this time. I know you know how."

Max was shook by this. He started on the new eggs and potatos. Cooking the table's entire orders all over again.
