The way I interpreted chef letting Margot leave at the end wasnât because she helped him find some kind of joy in cooking again, he would have been too far gone for that.
I think in a way he needed to let her leave because she really wasnât like the others and her dying with them would make the menu not âperfectâ

I didnât realize it until later, but they go through the stages of grief.
1. Denial, they donât believe Jeremy killed himself 16:52
2. They get angry trying to escape 20:30
3. They try to bargain by trying to pay off the chef 22:35
4. Depression happens when they realize the coast guard was a fake which shattered all hope 33:16
5. Acceptance, at the end they accept they are going to die and say âWe love you chef!â 37:52
I didnât list all the scenes but you get the reference times

Impressed that the script subverted expectations in clever ways. No cannibalism, no poisoning. Super impressive and unique film. Definitely on my Top 5 from last year. Here in LA, local institution Irv's Burgers is doing a "Menu Burger" which is just like the burger depicted in the movie and absolutely awesome.

I think its important to point out that chef's bedroom is not only an industrial kitchen with some tables and chairs, but an EXACT replica of the Hawthorne's dining room. While the setup itself shows just how much his personal life is dwarfed by his professional life, this detail makes clear that even when he's at home and sleeping, he is still utterly consumed by that space.

i don't know if this was said anywhere, but tantalus, as shown in one of the newspaper clippings w chef, was a greek story about a man who was supposed to host the gods on their travels. he tried to feed them his son (instead of just coming up with some delicious normal meal) and the gods punished him by throwing him into a pool of water with a fruit branch above his head. if he tried to drink the water, the water would recede and he couldn't quench his thirst. if he tried to eat the fruit, the fruit tree would rise so he couldn't reach it. just another jab in the story & chefs background.

I didnât see it as her manipulating him and more of her letting him enjoy the one thing that truly brought him joy as a chef. She knows that the chef has resigned himself to die as that is the point of the evening so she has no motivation to try a last ditch effort to try and convince him otherwise and save all of them. After all that happened in the movie his gradual smile while cooking a simple burger actually made me feel extremely happy. Even though it is a movie and they are actors, seeing the visual of a man whoâs ruined his life for his craft have one last genuine smile was beautiful. Even though he dies, I think he died with a bit of happiness in his heart

Everyone always assumes that she tricked him, but I think that was a moment of solidarity and mutual understanding between two service workers. The other snobbish customers either ignored or overlooked the Chef's service and food, while some read too much into it and were simply being too critical. Margot, during the Chef's final moments, asked for a service in a form of a meager burger, something simple, but clearly something that meant a lot to the Chef's journey of getting to where he is now, she then showed genuine appreciation for the burger, and kindly asked for a to go box and even paid her dues. This then re-affirmed what he initially thought of her; that she was in fact different than the others and that she understood what it was like to work in this sort of industry and let her go with a smile on his face.
