Synopsis

So why does Eddie want to get rid of Elaine and what's it got to do with Beth? Is Beth the other woman or is Eddie the other man? Maybe Eddie is using Elaine to hurt Beth unless Beth is using Eddie to get back at Elaine. It could be that Beth really loves Eddie but is playing hard to get, to get Eddie to love her more. But what the hell's it got to do with the staff.

1 café, 2 customers, 2 waitresses, 3 weeks and a lot of coffee. Service is not included and neither is Elaine.
