Honeydew | The Bear S2 Ep 4 Reaction 

Last season, when Carmy is at the AA meeting, he says "And when somebody new came into the restaurant to stage, I’d look at them like they were competition, like I’m gonna smoke this motherfucker." Will Poulter's character talks about the other side of this quote. Great callback when you notice it.

Another interpretation about why they included that scene with the man on the bicycle... Marcus is feeling guilt for being away from his sick mom, but him being there at the right place at the right time saved the man's life. It allows Marcus some emotional space to feel like his trip was for a greater purpose outside of learning how to cook, but also tying it back to the whole "serving others" mantra The Bear repeats

If you think Will Poulter was a surprise, wonders won't cease with who else pops up this season 😉

The thing with luca is the interesting dynamic with carmy. He's talking about how he couldn't keep up with him and he realized that he was never was going to be the best. But Carmy sent marcus to learned from him.

"genre: stress, trauma, anxiety" IM DEADDDD JUST NOTICED THIS

On your question about the significance of the bike here's what the actor said: "I talked with Ramy and Chris a lot about that moment and what it means. It’s a lot about nonverbal communication. It mirrors his and his mother’s relationship. I think that hug at the end is the hug he couldn’t get from his mom, so that’s why he leans more into it. It’s the first hug he’s had in who knows how long. It was a person who needed help and he saved him. You’re in a foreign country. Having to save somebody - if I’m by myself having to save a human, that’s scary alone. Being Black in another country, thinking about that, is scary also. Being in Copenhagen - if someone walks up, and they don’t speak English, they’re going to be like, “What did you do to this person?” Getting arrested in a foreign country - that’s the ominous music. It’s those thoughts."

From here on, straight 10/10 bangers. I'm glad they subverted my expectations with Luca, I thought we were gonna get Gordon Ramsey but I was pleasently surprised to see he was so chill and willing to be patient and willing to teach Marcus.

one of the top ten episodes of the series, forks is still number one for me.

I think this was my favorite episode of the season because it’s so much calmer and quieter. Like here’s a chill moment before more madness

Roshi: “non stressful episode” Fishes coming up soon:

I think the metaphor of the old man on the bike is that in life terrible things happen but you have to get back on the bike and keep moving forward

Shiso is a Japanese herb, similar to mint, but larger leaves and used in savory dishes in Japan but also used to create mint flavoring in desserts.

Will Poulter said in a couple interviews how he kept shooting his shot to be on The Bear because he was such a big fan.

This is a chill episode because they’re preparing you for the most stressful episode

It's so nice to watch you guys just experience and discuss the show and not, like, battle for dominance like a lot of reaction tubers do. My favorite chill hangout channel for sure.

The metaphor is no matter how bad the situation even at our lowest is we all need help, one person's help can save and change our lives.🥺

11:20 if no one helped him he wouldve died thats why he hugged him

Marcus cooking with Adam Warlock 😊 that’s like three marvel characters in this show Micro and Punisher.

Every time Will Poulter shows up in any media I get jump scared, then the biggest smile pops up on my face. Bro knows how to leave a mark

6:00 Shiso is a herb in the mint family. Kind of popular in Japanese food at least when I had it.

This was honestly my favorite episode of the season. I feel like I could watch an entire series of Marcus just learning desserts.

Hyped for forks and fishes 🔥

I remember when my chef friend told me the best restaurants in the world are in Copenhagen, Denmark. I was like "Dafuq? When did the Vikings learn how to cook fine cuisine?" Blew my mind.

The guest actor quality is insane this season.

"You can spend all the time in the world in here, but if you don't spend enough time out there..." Yall remember this before jumping on Carmy's ass spending time with Claire.

Say it with me: TRAINING ARC!!!

For the the bike crash scene, I think there was a variety interview about them explaining what it means

That's clearly Brooklyn

I might be way off but I don't think the part with the man on the bike has any deep symbolic meaning. I think it's just there to show that Marcus is empathetic and kind and the scene works well in the context of an overall slower, less stressful episode. And the experience emboldens him to tell Sydney that he misses her, which I think is sweet.

Will Poulter is my favorite guest surprise on here.

"The life is slicing!"

Next week we "Let it rip"

Sure as hell fooled me with that Brooklyn joke

“Get back on that bike” is a saying

Marcus is so chill

When Marcus saved the cyclist it showed how big a heart Marcus had because a scene like that in the US would be a lot more tense. But when the guy gave Marcus a hug it made him think about the people who care about him so it cut to him calling Syd.

When roshi opens his restaurant burgers and buns someone open up a spot right next door and have bully beef and rice on the menu lmao

The chef he said was much better then him was Carmy

If I remember correctly this is the only episode that doesn’t have a..loud city/chaotic noise going on in the background

Copenhagen is beautiful. These shots didn't do it enough justice.

Oh same. The bike thing had me on edge😅

will poulter is so finee

The chef he was talking about who was better than him was Carmy.

3:55 Yooooooo Flatbush shout out wah guann 😂😂😂😂

Putting aside the fact that he was in Guardians 3, I still can't believe how much Will Poulter has changed from We're The Millers to now. And he's super talented as an actor, too.

The Dexter’s Lab “deep cut” made my soul sing 😂

Golden Krust in Denmark is hilarious bro😭😭 i bet they have one too

YEAA 10 toes LUPA is what we like to seeee!!!

11:33 Bro oml im like how tf you even fall like that wtf 😭

Love this episode and Forks the most ❤ S2 is just so good

I didn't realize Luca was talking about Carmy until I rewatched Season 2.

BACK TO BACK?? RAHHHHH

*Great episode.*

Yeah, I was shocked to see Gordon Ramsey delivering fresh vegies and Morgan Freeman selling Carmy some crack. 10/10 cameos! 🔥🔥🔥

It’s twofold with the bike; sometimes when people are in a bad way eventually they crash out and despite good people looking out for them they get back on the bike and continue on their destructive path; IE Michael. Then there’s the metaphor for Marcus; that he will eventually fall but will get back up and keep going.

Oh man, wait till that one episode

Did katt williams have a story about him getting a bike and his bodyguard was like "if you ride you gon' fall!" and lo and behold he rode & fell in front of a whole bunch of people and they all caught it on video I believe.

This series is crazy (I don’t know what the bear is

I mean no one's looking at Ebon when Matty's going off!

think the point of the dude on the bike is to get up and keep moving when life knows you down. or something,

Forks finna be like szn2 of the walking dead

I wanna see yall watch hunger games

this show make me so hungry 🤤

wait are roshi and the gang all from NYC? 😯 😵‍💫

Love Sydney

Will Poulter 😍

3:43

Come on we waiting on that Avatar live action reaction

Will Poulter was my favorite cameo this season, and I believe he really wanted to be in this show. This episode is so chill I sometimes just watch it to relax, it's my favorite of the season

I love y'all, but y'all look like a toast settings slider 😂

had to watch this before the Avatar reaction

Wow brooklyn actually looks like a safe place to live now?! /s (,Ծ_Ծ,)

🤎

Hjeeelp.

First to comment 😂 NICE!!!

I found this the most boring episode of the bear. In some ways, i also found the next one boring if im right in thinking... the holiday special one, but it was also the most stressful episode. Im buzzing to see you guys watch forks....that episode is creme de la creme to use a food pun. Additionally id love to know how you know of will poulter because as a brit firstly i didnt even know his name, ive see his face but hes not that well known here tbf.
