And, in the premiere episode on December 2, Buddy visits the borough of Queens to help Violet's Bake Shop, a Hungarian Jewish Bakery in Fresh Meadows, NY. This bakery needs Buddy's help because Violet's son Michael quit his job to come help at her bakery, but now, the business is split in two-- and is suffering. Violet will not let Michael make any changes to the bakery and her husband Marty has spent thousands of dollars just to keep the doors open. When Buddy discovers that most of the bakery's baked goods are bought from an outside supplier, can he convince a stubborn Violet that changes need to be made in order to bring this business and family back together? In this clip, Buddy points out that if they don't make changes, they won't be able to turn the business around:
