The story so far
Everything you need before watchingAfter another meticulously plated course leaves the dining room divided, Tyler is still completely enchanted. While the other guests trade awkward jokes, gifts, and confessions, Margot asks what he sees in this strange world of fine dining. His answer turns chefs into artists working with life, death, and perfect ingredients—and reveals just how deeply he has surrendered to the performance.
