The tables were all full so he just went straight to the kitchen to ask the chef for food. He scurried up to the foot of the chef and the chef screamed. This wasn't an ideal situation for the health standards of the restaurant.  The chef chased the rat instead of giving him food. The rat was confused, he was harmless and hungry.
