Chef Slowik:
Our first course is called The Island. On your plate are plants from around the island, placed on rocks from the shore, covered in barely frozen, filtered seawater which will flavor the dish as it melts.Tyler:You know, this is what the guy was fishing for earlier...Chef Slowik:Sorry?Tyler:Um... Sorry, Chef.Chef Slowik:It's perfectly all right. Yes, they are those very same scallops. Now, here is what you must remember about this dish. We, the people on this island, are not important. The island and the nutrients it provides exist in their most perfect state without us gathering them or manipulating them, or digesting them. What happens inside this room is meaningless compared to what happens outside in nature, in the soil, in the water, in the air. We are but a frightened nanosecond. Nature is timeless. Enjoy.Margot:That's a cheery thought. Are you crying?Tyler:It's just that I find it all very moving. It's all so beautiful. I just... It's almost too beautiful to eat
