On the first night they open for a half-price soft launch to the public and the investors, before being grilled in detail on their numbers and business plans the following morning.
Finally, they open for a full-priced lunch service, during which the investors must consider whether to invest or not.
As the investors are in competition with each other, Fred sets them a deadline by which time they have to return to the restaurant if they intend to invest.
