Must-see

The Restaurant, 10 p.m., Channels 5, 22.

In last week's season-opener, the battle lines hardened. On one side was Jeffrey Chodorow, the financier and co-owner of Rocco's 22. On the other was Rocco DiSpirito, the young chef.

Chodorow said the chef was often absent, incommunicative and a spendthrift. DiSpirito says that was contrived in a power grab. Tonight's hour finds neither man budging. Meanwhile, Chodorow's people are studying the place. The best moments involve Chodorow's 20-year-old intern. We learn key life lessons, including a big one: Merely putting your hand over a phone doesn't keep someone from hearing your insult.

Jockey, 8 p.m., HBO.

Just beyond the excitement of horse racing, this documentary says, are jockeys in agony. Their locker rooms have saunas and "heaving bowls." Some have shed six or more pounds on race day.

This film ranges from a struggling newcomer to a penniless jockey whose bulimic life left him needing a kidney transplant.
