When a restaurant owner suspects employees of not doing their jobs — whether it be stealing, lying, mistreating customers or generally doing lousy work — they call in the Mystery Diners. These Mystery Diners are undercover operatives who go into restaurants, bars and food-service establishments with hidden cameras to perform surveillance to find out what's really going on when the boss isn't around.
Patrick, owner of Buster's Beach House in Long Beach, Calif., calls Charles to investigate rumors that his Executive Chef is showing preferential treatment amongst the wait staff. Mystery Diners Tracy and Shelby go undercover and discover another problem behind the bar.
