Curb Your Enthusiasm - Disturbance in the kitchen

There is a general disturbance in the kitchen.
Curb Your Enthusiasm, Season 9 Episode 3.

I love that the chef will immediately answer personal questions about his personal life but will not tell Larry what the disturbance was.

[@Meinfuhrerhoffman]

Well the thing is, the disturbance was so minor, it might even have just been a hiccup. And I think that's self-evident.

[@danny91pr]

​@Meinfuhrerhoffman If it was so minor, they shouldn't have a problem saying what was the disturbance

[@jamieflame01]

Spoiled ingredients or they momentarily ran out of coke. Jeez idk something like that.

[@Damaged7]

It was such a minor disturbance

[@Flem1337]

The disturbance was probably another customer complaining about the manager telling em about a disturbance in the kitchen, that happened to be someone else complaining....

[@giraffesareselfish9563]

Flem1337 wow, you just blew my mind. So you're saying this is like Curb meets The Twilight Zone....nice

Rich Fulcher is an American born comedian who usually stars in U.K. TV shows like the brilliant Snuff Box with Matt Berry and The Mighty Boosh. I was happy to see him in a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode.

[@dannemannen18]

Because he is hiding from the Muslims. I'm not even joking 🤣

[@markread7333]

That's his real hair and mustache. He normally wears a bald cap. He also has to wear a bald upper lip cap. And that's a prosthetic nose, if you must know.

[@ownpetard8379]

@@highviewbarbell Funny that you mention that. My uncle once removed was named Nikos Para, and he never got credit when people amended common words with his name, thinking they were jazzing up the convo. A parachute is still a chute. A paramedic is still a medic, a paraphrase is still a phrase - cannot paraphrase without a phrase - a paratrooper is still a trooper. Yet he got no recognition. And I haven't even mentioned words like parapet, paradox or paraphernalia! People got lots of mileage out of those, but he got bupkis.

"That's a very specific situation sir!"

[@petemitchell5428]

At the start of the clip Larry asks, "what's the disturbance? Is the chef angry? Did someone drop some pots and pans?". At the end of this episode, when he's trying to escape from the cop via the kitchen, he ends up making the chef angry because he knocked over some pots and pans. After which the manager goes on to tell another party that there's been a disturbance, in his own vague way. Great continuity. Each episode of Curb feels so tightly knit and well written. One of the best comedy shows I've seen.

But I got reminded of this clip and told them about it and they burst out laughing. Mind you, I didn't even show them the clip. Just narrating the manager's dialogue made them laugh.
