Recap / Bar Rescue S 4 E 45 Paradise Lost

Go To

Jon Taffer goes to Tampa to rescue a bar/movie theater hybrid where he learns one owner is siphoning profits for personal expenses.

This work contains examples of:

  • Calling the Young Man Out: Scott rightfully points out that his son basically robbed a bank and didn't get away with it.
  • Idle Rich: The son was living like this by using the profits from the bar for country club dinners and golf expenses even though the bar was making no money. Because of his status as a minority owner, he has no right to use such expenses.
  • Playing the Victim Card: The son and, to a lesser extent, his wife play up the fact he's been taking care of her while she had cancer to drive attention from the fact he was embezzling from the company.
