Marcus can see the promise in Fuji almost immediately he asks Fuji to make them some burgers. Marcus can see the sincerity and suggests that they meet with Fuji. Sammy is still distraught about everything that happened, and he wants Fuji to be able to rejoin them despite the bad blood. Todd would watch Fuji on the cameras even when he was at home. He worked in the kitchen and was a good employee, but he left the job saying that Todd was micromanaging him, and he couldn’t deal with it any longer.
