    One practical aspect I am wondering about - how can a very busy entrepreneur like Tilman suddenly move to Italy?

    Normally, an ambassador is supposed to actually be in that country.

    "Drain the Swamp" they said!

    Good news is I just got back from securing a 20 acre family compound in Costa Rica when this thing inevitably goes off the rails.

    Political aspect - 1/10
    Entertainment aspect - 100/10

    So will Landrys get 25% more expensive too or nah? :D

    Tilman needs another job? More evidence that he's broke

    “Che cos’è questo?”
    "It's gumbo."
    "'Gum-bo?'"
    "Yes." (sees look of distress on Italian diner's face) "Hey, you made me eat tripe. I didn't complain then. Well, I did, but anyway....Gumbo is normally very good. This is Landry's gumbo. Here, take this, you'll need it."
    “E questo, cos’è?"
    "Pepto Bismol. It's for the Hershey squirts. Um, 'cioccolato del culo'?"

    I can confirm this. Lived in Sicily. Some good-ass seafood. Landry's would fold there like a blanket. Someone should tell that to Tilman before he tries to franchise there.
