He probably slipped on a Baconator

This place just got rebuilt from the ground-up less than 1 month ago... I can't believe it needed roof work already. Who the hell built it?

I believe the building structure itself was not too changed. A front was added. Something like a roof may (on the old back half) have still needed updating.
