I haven't seen that, but I have seen a few episodes of Restaurant: Impossible which I think is a similar style of show.
One episode I saw recently was about two brothers that owned an Italian place and for years it did really well, but now it was dated, the food sucked and they were $500K in debt and losing $20K a month. One of the guys brought his son in who went to school for restaurant management and had worked for some big places to help them fix things then promptly refused to listen to him to they kept bleeding money.
Another thing that struck me is that he said they had about 8 more months left and they would be out of money and have to close down. They just weren't going to walk away until everything they had was gone and their family was torn apart.
