- [Jon] Tonight's our stress test.
Rudy and his team are not employees.
They're members of this post.
- Oops, look this fell, aww.
Oh my god, I almost knocked those glasses down.
- But Rudy is the commander,
and his team is the commanding team.
Tonight, I wanna see him provide an experience
that is up to the level that these vets deserve.
So our strategy is to act like commanders.
- Work together, and work as a family.
- That's exactly right.
- Okay. - It's all good.
- We open in a few minutes.
- Thanks. - Thank you, buddy.
- We're ready.
- Tonight's stress test,
now I'm getting a little bit nervous,
now that it's closer.
(table scraping)
Ready for us.
(speaker laughing)
- Welcome to Post 6216, we're now open, come on in.
- [Man] Ian, how are you doing?
- [Ian] Good.
- What we're having is micheladas,
margarita, or pina colada.
- I'll just have a margarita.
- How are you doing? I'm Rudy.
- I'm trying, I'm doing this.
(ice rattling)
(liquid gurgling)
There?
- Almost, this one's a little more than that.
So let's just put a drop more in there, and let's get it
poured right away. - Okay.
- These are our pigs in a blanket.
We did it with puff pastry.
It has a beef sausage drizzled with honey and mustard.
- [Man] Okay.
- Here we go!
(anticipatory music building)
- A little too much.
Let's just dump the whole thing, start over again.
- Start over again?
- Yeah, start over again.
- Come on guys, move.
Phil, let's build, let's go,
quick but don't hurry.
- It's not popping.
- So the bar is slammed,
and they really can't keep up at all.
- Oh shoot, the wrong way.
- And you see it in the integrity of the cocktail.
- Man, that is strong though.
- It's two steps!
It's your spirit and your mixer, boom.
- I ruined the shark.
What do you want me to do, make some more?
- [Man] Dump, dump.
- Remembering to do the steps,
it was a lot harder than I expected.
- What's that in there.
- Huh? Ooh, I don't know. - It's a piece of the napkin.
That's okay, we gotta dump it and start over.
They are completely in the weeds.
- Oh, ho, what have we got here?
- Little pigs in a blanket.
Thank you, Sir.
- Here I'll try it.
Thank you, brother.
- You try it?
- I need to share a couple of things with you guys.
She's licking her fingers,
because she has no napkin.
Look at you, now you're gonna have to
lick your fingers too, right?
Who else is licking their fingers here?
A couple of napkins would go a long way.
We're managing an operation,
so let's find these little changes we can make, okay?
Thank you.
- [Woman] Let's go, runners!
- So you're doing this with this equipment.
But if we had a function here--
- We would go down.
- Well we solved the production issues.
You created great food
that any of the auxiliary members can make.
- Mm-hmm.
- Now we gotta have a kitchen.
- Correct.
- For them to make it with.
- That's right.
- Thanks. - Thank you.
- Officers group and various divisions of the military
are not here to bus tables and cook food.
- Got another little black thing in there.
- Again? - Again.
So let's just dump it and start over.
- So I need to create a system they can use
to run this place during events.
This is a very unique situation,
and one of my biggest challenges.
- And you could try it, I wanna see,
look, see, there's something floating again, see?
I didn't use a napkin, see?
How do you think it's in the ice?
It's probably in the ice.
- You know what, it's probably in the ice.
- We have a problem with that ice machine?
Is it dirty inside?
Can we go check that?
- We can check it, yeah.
- Let's go see where the problem is, guys.
When we have dirt in drinks, we gotta source it.
(exciting music)
So Rudy, Johnny, this is what really is
bacteria inside the ice machine.
That bacteria draws bugs.
In this, is animal feces, insect feces, parts of insects.
That's why we have particles in these drinks.
(music building to a crescendo)
