The post says born rich looking. I don't think people who are born into money become escorts.

She doesn't ask him to make her a burger in order to prove that he's a real chef and he doesn't comply because he's a narcissist, I'm kind of surprised how you could read the scene like that?

The chef is deeply unhappy with his life, where he has ended up and what he is doing. He is completely alienated from his labour, which has become feeding slop to uncaring rich assholes. The last time he felt joy and connection with his labour, was as a young man selling simple food to good folk. It was when he sold cheap cheeseburgers.

She asks him for a cheeseburger because of this, she wants to show that she "gets him" and to remind him that not all is lost. She is nervous because she is out of options and this is a huge gamble. When she asks him for the bag "to go" she is negotiating a way out within the confines of the system the chef feels trapped in.
It has nothing to do with having to prove himself, it has to do with being reminded of why he chose to serve food for a living in the first place. She is rewarded because she reconnects him with that base instinct.

Edit: fixed punctuation

A small bite of burger seems appropriate for the situation of the scene. Twitter discourse is so stupid.

I'd take a big bite

The funniest part of the scene is where she says "I think my eyes were bigger than my stomach", with ATJ's big eyes looking at him. It had to be a joke right?

Would you eat a massive bite of cheeseburger when the chef just said he was going to kill you?

Considering part of what saves her is that she's showing that he can make good food that's not some pretentious deconstruction of food, and also that she's not some bougie fuck like the rest of the restaurant guests, I'd say taking a big sloppy ass greasy bite out of that fucker like she's hungover at Five Guys would have been the more appropriate move.

No, it's cause an actor is too rich to know how to act. She can play a puritan former wife just fine, but she's too born rich to convincingly eat a hamburglar

I prefer borgir myself

It takes a lot of work to look waifish

How do you eat burgers that were as tall as that one? It looks like she was biting out the bottom half which I do too on tall burgers, then grab a second bite in the same spot to even it out. You all running around out there with snake jaws

I once filmed a commercial were I had to take a bite out of a sandwich. Around take #12 I'd eaten about 4½ sandwiches and I couldn't get myself to do more than take an itty bitty bite. That itty bitty bite was the take they decided to use for when I tore into the sandwich.
I'm a normal person who eats sandwiches in a normal way, but not in that one take.

I have bad news for you, "comrade"

sike, haven't nor will see that movie, or movies in general

It was about pretentious rich assholes being murdered by the fancy chefs who serve them because the chefs come to realize that the prestige/high pay/etc isn't worth having to deal with the bourgeois. Spoilers for the entire movie.
