Higashi, a Japanese tourist, stepped into the restaurant with hopes of enjoying a comforting meal. Andy, an experienced waiter, had a clever strategy for customers who were not fluent in English. He served Higashi some reheated leftovers and took advantage of him. Andy was under the impression that he could escape the consequences, but he quickly realized he was gravely wrong.
At Sizzling Steak, during the busy dinner rush, Louise, a new waitress, couldn’t help but notice Higashi, a middle-aged Japanese man who was dressed impeccably in a kimono and overcoat. After carefully surveying the room, he finally chose a cozy corner table. Louise gave him a friendly welcome, but Higashi had some difficulty with English and asked for a steak and rice bowl.
Louise mentioned that rice bowls were not available, but suggested fries as an alternative. Higashi agreed, accepting her suggestion. While Louise was in the process of removing a partially consumed steak from the counter, Andy intervened and insisted that she offer it to Higashi. In spite of her objections to serving cold food, Andy insisted, using Higashi’s lack of English proficiency as a justification.
Higashi, feeling disappointed with the food he received, voiced his dissatisfaction. Andy rudely interrupted, insisting that Higashi eat the cold steak and making offensive comments. With a heavy heart, Louise reluctantly served the food according to Andy’s demands. As Higashi attempted to make his exit, Andy’s eyes caught sight of the money tucked away in his wallet, sparking a mischievous scheme to deceive him even more.
Andy made a false promise to Higashi, with malicious intentions in mind. In a regrettable turn of events, he accidentally spilled sake on Higashi’s coat. To make amends, he kindly offered to clean it, but unfortunately, he took advantage of the situation and stole money from its pockets. Louise was shocked by Andy’s actions, but she was determined to make things right. She successfully recovered the stolen money and returned it to Higashi with the help of a translator app to communicate.
A police officer arrived, prompted by Andy’s false accusations against Louise and Higashi. Andy created a compelling video capturing Louise in possession of money. However, Higashi, who turned out to be a journalist, came forward and provided evidence that the money actually belonged to him. The officer confirmed the truth, leading to Andy’s arrest.
Impressed by Louise’s bravery and honesty, Higashi extended a job opportunity in New York, opening up a world of possibilities for her future.
