Flo: Whoa! The food critic gave us a 4-stah rating because of yawr cookin', Kate!
Kate: Woo-hoo!!
Flo: "...The ratatouille is to die for, but some of the, shall we say, local flavor, can be an appetite killer..."
Eddie: *urp* Ok, now what'd I do?

The Captain is ‘local flavor’? I thought he was just a local…

I respect how Miller is able to light-heartedly, yet coherently, address complex social and institutional phenomena. This storyline alone has touched on health care, diet, personal accountability, gentrification and cultural identity—-but with kids, sarcasm,one liners, and burps. Nicely done!

So Kate comes and Eddie goes with Flo’s help? Maybe he has not paid his bill yet?

I’ve seen both “local color” and “local flavor”. “Local character” is another. I think it comes down to literary license.

What happened to the ‘R’ in “DINER”?
didereaux about 10 years ago
thats it. Miller and his born again vegan fervor preaching can kiss mibe… non sequiter is dead! That’s sad.

Eddie is going to blame Pauley saying he clawed the critic.

I see Flo found a job for Cap’n Eddie. A way for him to work off his tab. Not only is he now a new New England roof ornament and Spotter. (for all those beating a track to Flo’s.)

Local flavor would def. be fishy.
Argythree about 10 years ago
Well, the Captain can look at it this way. He now has a ready-made source for his tall tales, and one that might even make those tales more believable. With a rooftop location, he can talk to crowds and even convince them that a rogue storm swept him up and deposited him in some distant, dangerous land. AND he’s far enough from the crowd that any ‘local aroma’ he generates would be gone with the winds…

After Eddies belch, you’d think the problem would be local odor…
