00:00:00He's the culinary guru really on this mountain.
00:00:09I'm starting to think God cursed me with an eating disorder for all of my hormonal talent.
00:00:22Hey dude, what are you doing?
00:00:23I'm starving.
00:00:24Well, there's a whole world of grub out there, why don't you go get some?
00:00:40Looks like you can afford it.
00:00:42I've tried it all.
00:00:43It's a horror show.
00:00:44I wish I could call the culinary cops.
00:00:47Here.
00:00:48Try this.
00:00:49I am a renowned food critic.
00:00:53I would rather starve than eat something that looks like it was wrapped by a raccoon.
00:00:57Fine, hope you don't regret it.
00:01:06What's in it?
00:01:07Just regular food.
00:01:09Just regular food?
00:01:10Now show me.
00:01:11So now you want to try it?
00:01:13Pay me first.
00:01:16I am a legendary food critic.
00:01:19If I am even thinking about eating that, you should be rolling out the red carpet.
00:01:24Well, isn't this funny?
00:01:27The starving foodie.
00:01:29I never heard of you.
00:01:30How do I know you're not a fraud?
00:01:32Same deal.
00:01:33No cash, no food.
00:01:46Well, it was a pleasure serving you today.
00:02:01I hope to see you again soon.
00:02:06It's just like that day.
00:02:08Oh!
00:02:09Gus!
00:02:10You're...
00:02:11You're eating again?
00:02:12A year ago, I was a skeleton on the street, and the Culinary Guru's food saved my life.
00:02:21Ever since then, I've never tasted anything like it.
00:02:24She might...
00:02:26Vaughn, we have to find her.
00:02:30She might have some connection to the Culinary Guru.
00:02:36This jar is perfect for pickles.
00:02:40Tell me why we brought this clueless country bumpkin home.
00:02:43You've always complained about your fiancé, that eating disorder guy.
00:02:48So why don't we have her marry into the Thompson family instead?
00:02:52So if Alex marries Ira, when he kicks the bucket, we can snag his fortune through her?
00:03:00Smart girl.
00:03:01Just like your mother.
00:03:02Did you say fortune?
00:03:03Is my dad finally going to kick the bucket and leave me some cash?
00:03:07Heartless brat.
00:03:09I found a great husband for you.
00:03:11Get yourself ready to marry him.
00:03:13No, I came down to make money, not get married.
00:03:17Someone like you, so poor and provincial, should be grateful that someone wants you.
00:03:28Oh, come on.
00:03:29Someone as ugly as you could still marry my dad.
00:03:32I'm far superior to you, so I wouldn't worry about me.
00:03:35Mom!
00:03:36Mom!
00:03:37Our top priority right now is to secure the marriage with the sickly Thompson heir.
00:03:41I'm here to handle this.
00:03:48What a handsome guy.
00:03:49Too bad he's on the verge of dying.
00:03:51Mr. Thompson, what brings you here?
00:03:54I heard Miss Williams doesn't seem to honor our engagement, so let's just call the wedding
00:03:59off.
00:04:00Wait, there must be a misunderstanding.
00:04:04This is Ira, the eldest daughter of the Williams family.
00:04:08She can represent the Williams family in marrying you.
00:04:12It's you?
00:04:16So this is the guy you've been raving about?
00:04:19My future husband?
00:04:20I gotta say, for a guy who can't eat, you're surprisingly easy on the eyes.
00:04:26Another shallow woman smitten by my looks.
00:04:29She's a bit different, given her connection to the culinary goop.
00:04:32Miss, you know my boss?
00:04:33Yeah, I caught him on the brink of starvation, just near-
00:04:43One more word, and you're toast.
00:04:46Why can't I say anything?
00:04:47It's no secret you're starving.
00:04:51So on this day, he just collapsed right at my feet-
00:04:54Miss Williams, you've convinced me.
00:04:56Let's get married.
00:04:59Alex, you're not doing this out of pride.
00:05:02You just want to find out where the culinary guru is.
00:05:07Wait, I came down the mountain to make money.
00:05:10You want to marry me?
00:05:11Are you rich?
00:05:13Duh.
00:05:14Our boss is top dog of the restaurant world.
00:05:17Okay, but like, how rich are we talking?
00:05:20How rich do you want?
00:05:22Black truffle, caviar, foie gras.
00:05:25Can you afford all that?
00:05:26Snagging the finest ingredients from the mountaintops to the ocean depths
00:05:30is a walk in the park for a date.
00:05:32Great, then I'll marry you.
00:05:36Wait, tell me, where did you get that food box from the other day?
00:05:40We should go out on the town and get some tasty treats to celebrate.
00:05:43Wha- no!
00:05:52What exactly do you want to eat?
00:05:56Boss, um, your new wife seems to be a bit, uh, ditzy.
00:06:05It seems boss really cares about her.
00:06:07Boss, the lady seems to be missing.
00:06:13Oh great, my new wife is gone.
00:06:15I hope she didn't get kidnapped by the culinary guru.
00:06:18Go find her.
00:06:19Yeah.
00:06:24This clue looks good.
00:06:25Probably never seen a place with more than two chairs.
00:06:31So many delicious options.
00:06:33I knew coming down was a good idea.
00:06:36What would you like to order?
00:06:38I would like this, this, and this.
00:06:43And that's it, I am ready to feast.
00:06:47Of course you have to pay, and your total is $6,200, so cash or card?
00:06:54Oh, you're expecting to eat for free without paying?
00:06:56Well, I don't have any money on me, but-
00:06:58Hey, are you trying to dine and dash?
00:07:00But my husband does.
00:07:04Plutus, god of wealth, please shower me with riches.
00:07:13Please shower me with riches.
00:07:17Are you wandering, or are you just trying to get your face on the side of a milk carton?
00:07:21The fortune-summoning spell Chef McFlombie taught me actually works.
00:07:25Dear husband, pay the man.
00:07:28Look, why don't you stingy losers just come clean and stop dragging this out?
00:07:32Let me have some sickly pretend-to-be-rich guy?
00:07:35This is a joke.
00:07:41Mr. Thompson, it's an absolute honor to have you in my restaurant.
00:07:45Your staff doesn't seem too happy to see me, or my wife.
00:07:48Perhaps we should just head somewhere else.
00:07:50My sincerest of apologies for my employee's behavior.
00:07:54He'll be dismissed immediately.
00:08:03Were you defending me back there?
00:08:05As Alex Thompson's future wife, if any old joke can push you around, that's a slap in my face.
00:08:10I was just protecting my image.
00:08:12Oh, I see. Now I understand why you're so worried about being seen starving to death in the streets.
00:08:18For you, silence is golden.
00:08:22Whatever. Just shut up, William.
00:08:34You didn't go for any of the designer clothes I picked out for you.
00:08:37All those sparkles and stitching look cute, but they're nowhere near as comfy as my own stuff.
00:08:42Besides, I'm a food expert.
00:08:44I don't need all that glitz and glam.
00:08:46You're a food expert?
00:08:48Seriously?
00:08:50Top notch. One bite of my food will have you begging for more.
00:08:53Wanna try?
00:08:55My eating issues aren't just some kitchen disaster average person can fix.
00:09:01Rich people are so fussy.
00:09:05Only if that food box you made was edible.
00:09:09That one wasn't made by me.
00:09:12Damn it. Could it be?
00:09:14Have I been tricked into a marriage?
00:09:18It looks like my eating disorder isn't going to be cured any time soon.
00:09:21Skinny husband, you're really going to pass on my cooking?
00:09:25If your cooking isn't up to culinary guru level, then I'm out.
00:09:29Guess that's why you're starved.
00:09:32Do you need help?
00:09:34One condition.
00:09:36No.
00:09:39Do you need help?
00:09:41One condition.
00:09:43Don't mention that incident.
00:09:45Oh, no, it's heavy and you're sick.
00:09:47I don't want you breaking my pot.
00:09:49It's just a bloody pot.
00:09:51Breaking it?
00:09:53You can't even lift it.
00:09:55You good?
00:09:57Looking like you're auditioning for a fainting scene.
00:09:59Take me back to my room.
00:10:01Boss, I got you these gourmet pastries from a top chef.
00:10:03They're still warm.
00:10:05Now, get that away from me. Now.
00:10:07Fine.
00:10:10Call the best doctors.
00:10:12I will not give my fortune to her.
00:10:14Boss, seriously, just eat.
00:10:16If you keep going like this, she'll be celebrating while you're starving.
00:10:26Where's my room, by the way?
00:10:28You and Boss Alex are married now, so you'll be sharing a room.
00:10:37I'm sorry.
00:10:54Am I up next for the shower?
00:10:56Yeah.
00:10:58Do you know how to use the shower head?
00:11:00Let me step out.
00:11:12Are you okay?
00:11:20Wait, are you checking me out?
00:11:24Of course not.
00:11:26No, I was just checking the bathroom.
00:11:29Of course not.
00:11:31No, I was just checking the plumbing.
00:11:40Hey, Vaughn.
00:11:42What's with all the cash?
00:11:44You buying a farm?
00:11:46The boss is trying to tackle his eating disorder.
00:11:48I hired the top medical team.
00:11:50And this is their tip.
00:11:52Eating disorder?
00:11:54That's easy peasy.
00:11:56Hand it over and I'll fix him up.
00:11:58Send those doctors home.
00:12:00Just give me the money and I'll handle the treatment.
00:12:08What are you doing?
00:12:10Alex, I'm going to be your personal healing chef.
00:12:14You know nothing about me.
00:12:16How could you possibly cure me?
00:12:19You stop messing around and just get out.
00:12:23Out.
00:12:28If Alex lives till 80,
00:12:30I'll have to live even longer
00:12:32to claim his assets.
00:12:34You got this, Ira.
00:12:36Eat well, drink well,
00:12:38and you'll easily outlive him.
00:12:58Well, they'll just stand there like a statue.
00:13:00Let's eat together.
00:13:02Try my food
00:13:04and you'll no longer look like a contestant
00:13:06on a survival reality TV show.
00:13:10Like I'd touch that?
00:13:12It's probably nasty as hell.
00:13:14Fine by me.
00:13:16Just don't come begging for it later.
00:13:23Yum, yum, yum.
00:13:25So ridiculously good.
00:13:27So ridiculously good.
00:13:34Hurry, come eat.
00:13:36Ira's cooking is out of this world.
00:13:40No, I'm good.
00:13:42I'm not hungry.
00:13:44Sure you've got to hang in there.
00:13:46Another plate.
00:13:48No, make it two.
00:13:50Thank you for the best meal
00:13:52we've had in our entire lives.
00:13:54Oh, please, it's nothing.
00:13:57It's nothing.
00:14:03You pathetic, self-important foodie.
00:14:05I wonder if you're drooling yet.
00:14:27Oh, God.
00:14:29Shit.
00:14:31I need my liquid nutrients.
00:14:43Protein shakes are gone.
00:14:45I'll have to make do with something else.
00:14:50This looks pretty good.
00:14:52Weird, I'm actually tempted to try it.
00:14:57It's not that I want to try it.
00:14:59I just need to test this girl's culinary skills.
00:15:08It smells pretty good.
00:15:17Ira?
00:15:19Are you there?
00:15:27Don't be a sneaky cake burglar.
00:15:29I'm just taste testing.
00:15:31Well, I'm not stingy.
00:15:33You can have it,
00:15:35but you have to pay the cake tax.
00:15:45Get off me, you wet towel.
00:15:53Seriously?
00:15:56Seriously?
00:15:58It's empty.
00:16:06Alex?
00:16:08Yeah?
00:16:10I've been wondering,
00:16:12what led to your eating disorder
00:16:14in the first place?
00:16:16I used to be all about savoring
00:16:18every gourmet dish,
00:16:20but then after too many,
00:16:22nothing hits the spot anymore.
00:16:24Stuff to the brim,
00:16:26the food he ate his way
00:16:28into an eating disorder?
00:16:36Alex, my heart is racing.
00:16:38What's happening to me?
00:16:42Alex?
00:16:44Alex? Alex?
00:16:50Robert used to say,
00:16:52you can skip a meal, but you can never skip a drink.
00:17:08What a strange guy.
00:17:18Good night, Alex.
00:17:22Good night.
00:17:29She's actually quite pretty
00:17:31when she's not being so noisy.
00:17:52How dare you
00:17:54take advantage of me like that?
00:17:56What the heck was that for?
00:18:00Is it too late to apologize?
00:18:02Get out!
00:18:10Are you mad?
00:18:15My signature crab cakes
00:18:17are the ultimate cure for picky eaters.
00:18:19This will be my apology for hitting him.
00:18:22Oh, hi.
00:18:24Can I help you?
00:18:26Hi, I'm Alex's wife.
00:18:28Here to bring him his lunch.
00:18:30Oh, another one claiming to be
00:18:32our CEO's wife.
00:18:34Everyone knows he's anorexic
00:18:36and can't eat anything.
00:18:38Try harder next time.
00:18:40Maybe a wardrobe upgrade.
00:18:42What's wrong with my wardrobe?
00:18:44You're pickier than Alex is.
00:18:46I've seen too many like you.
00:18:48Stop trying to pull tricks.
00:18:52It's a shame to waste food like that.
00:18:54Let me go!
00:18:56What are you doing?
00:19:02Boss,
00:19:04this strange woman
00:19:06was claiming to be your wife
00:19:08and trying to bring you lunch
00:19:10and I was just helping her on her way out.
00:19:12Did you get burned?
00:19:14How dare you treat
00:19:16my wife like that?
00:19:18I'm so sorry, I didn't realize
00:19:21I was your wife.
00:19:23Please forgive me.
00:19:25I demand compensation.
00:19:27Those ingredients were extremely rare.
00:19:29I hiked a mountain to get them.
00:19:31What's going on?
00:19:33I actually have an appetite
00:19:35for this stuff.
00:19:37All crab cakes
00:19:39should be pretty much the same.
00:19:41What am I thinking?
00:19:43Great.
00:19:45Considering eating floor food.
00:19:47Next I'll be outside fighting the pigeons for crumbs.
00:19:49You handle this.
00:19:53You're fired.
00:19:57Wait,
00:19:59she needs to pay me.
00:20:07Thanks Alex, I'll spend it well.
00:20:09Whoa,
00:20:11hold up. You were supposed to bring me food.
00:20:13Well yeah, but it's gone now.
00:20:15That's it? You don't have anything else
00:20:17to say? Are you not even going to check
00:20:19if I'm breathing?
00:20:21Oh, checked.
00:20:23Okay, you're not dead yet.
00:20:25I'm going shopping.
00:20:29Chasing money, huh?
00:20:33Who needs love when you have an empire to run?
00:20:37Everything is on track.
00:20:39We have the lost ancient recipe as a prize.
00:20:41Should be enough to lure out the culinary guru.
00:20:43Don't worry, sir.
00:20:46We've reached Blake, the culinary guru's
00:20:48top apprentice.
00:20:50He'll be a judge, and there might
00:20:52be news about the chef soon.
00:20:56Vaughn, I made a new dish.
00:20:58Please take it to your boss.
00:21:00But you have to pay me before
00:21:02he eats it.
00:21:04Madam, the boss is busy with the culinary guru
00:21:06competition. He definitely
00:21:08won't be able to eat what you made.
00:21:10You're still looking for the culinary guru?
00:21:12Boss is tough to heal.
00:21:14Only the culinary guru can help.
00:21:16We're using the lost ancient recipe
00:21:18as the prize in the cook-off to lure him in.
00:21:20The lost ancient recipe?
00:21:22That's a great prize.
00:21:24My mentor will be so happy if I win it.
00:21:26You have a mentor?
00:21:32Don't worry, Alex. I will cure you
00:21:34and win the cooking competition.
00:21:36You want to participate in the cooking competition?
00:21:38All the top chefs
00:21:40from the nation will be there.
00:21:42You should just forget about it. You'll be crushed.
00:21:44Just let me try. I can do it.
00:21:50Fine. Just don't be too upset
00:21:52if you lose.
00:21:54I'll give her a consolation prize privately
00:21:56if necessary.
00:21:58Great. I will show you what I can do.
00:22:02Did you hear?
00:22:04The head apprentice of the culinary guru
00:22:06is coming to judge today.
00:22:08Yeah. I just came to catch a glimpse of the
00:22:11culinary head apprentice.
00:22:13I heard Alex is bringing his new wife.
00:22:15I wonder what kind of woman
00:22:17the picky CEO ended up with.
00:22:19Alex's wife?
00:22:21That girl is just
00:22:23an ugly and unrefined
00:22:25country bumpkin.
00:22:27I can't believe Alex ended up with some
00:22:29broke and ugly chick.
00:22:31How sad.
00:22:33I guess that's what he gets for his eating issues.
00:22:35Look!
00:22:57She looks
00:22:59gorgeous.
00:23:01They are truly a match made in heaven.
00:23:03Alex doesn't look weak
00:23:05at all.
00:23:07I can't believe Ira is so full of herself now.
00:23:09Should I not have called off the engagement before?
00:23:11Don't be fooled
00:23:13by their current glamour.
00:23:15I've heard Alex's
00:23:17condition is worsening.
00:23:19Otherwise, he wouldn't be playing matchmaker
00:23:21for the culinary guru.
00:23:23Alex owns a food empire.
00:23:25If they could find culinary guru
00:23:27and cure him, it would only
00:23:29benefit that hick Ira.
00:23:31No way! I have to win Alex back.
00:23:35What's in those jars?
00:23:37Those are called
00:23:39spices.
00:23:41You're key to making
00:23:43gourmet dishes.
00:23:45You know nothing
00:23:47country bumpkin.
00:23:49Oh, those are just flashy things.
00:23:51The most important part of real cuisine
00:23:53is to cook with the heart.
00:23:55It's how you bring out the ingredients as natural flavors.
00:23:57Despite her usual
00:24:00unreliable demeanor,
00:24:02she actually has her own insights about food.
00:24:04You clueless
00:24:06hick, don't pretend to know
00:24:08anything. There can only be
00:24:10one big winner tonight,
00:24:12and that's me.
00:24:14Ira's right. A chef who relies only on
00:24:16spices is a one-trick pony.
00:24:18I'd rather just drink my protein shakes.
00:24:20Well, hold on. It's not that bad.
00:24:24You deserve to starve, Alex.
00:24:26You're worth the possibility of the culinary
00:24:28guru appearing to cure your illness.
00:24:30I wouldn't even consider taking you back.
00:24:45Master Blake!
00:24:47We all admire you greatly.
00:24:52Master Blake,
00:24:54still no news of the culinary guru?
00:24:56Master's gone into seclusion with a junior apprentice
00:24:58and I have not been able to find out where he is.
00:25:02Blake! Hi, Ira.
00:25:04Long time no see. What are you doing here?
00:25:06How odd.
00:25:08The culinary guru's head apprentice
00:25:10knows this
00:25:12small-town girl?
00:25:14How do you two know each other?
00:25:18Mr. Blake, the competition's about to start
00:25:20and the host is calling for you.
00:25:23Alex,
00:25:25don't worry.
00:25:27I think I'll still find the whereabouts of the culinary guru.
00:25:35Of course I know him.
00:25:39It could happen.
00:25:41People meet every day.
00:25:43Ladies and
00:25:45gentlemen, today's winner
00:25:47will receive an ancient lost
00:25:49recipe and a vivid
00:25:51faint pink diamond from
00:25:53the Thompson family.
00:25:55The competition officially begins.
00:25:57There's only one rule.
00:25:59Whoever can get picky food critic Alex Thompson
00:26:01to eat their dish
00:26:03wins.
00:26:07What's wrong?
00:26:09The fish is spoiled.
00:26:11I suggest you back down now before you embarrass
00:26:13yourself even more.
00:26:15This fool has no idea
00:26:17it's me pulling the strings.
00:26:21I were
00:26:23you little beggar!
00:26:25Thief!
00:26:27Your fancy dishes don't even need tomatoes anyways.
00:26:33Hey buddy, got any leftovers?
00:26:35Just these.
00:26:37Perfect, I'll take them.
00:26:39Are you sure you want that trash?
00:26:41Here.
00:26:49Hillbilly will never make it on the big stage.
00:26:51Pressure won't drive her
00:26:53crazy, right?
00:26:57What's she doing?
00:27:03I need a big pot.
00:27:05Sure, no problem.
00:27:07Behind you.
00:27:11What?
00:27:15What a unique
00:27:17cooking method.
00:27:19Ira, what are you doing?
00:27:21You're disgracing the Williams family.
00:27:23I've got more
00:27:25tricks up my sleeve, Ira.
00:27:27Just wait and see how you make a fool
00:27:29of yourself.
00:27:31That country bumpkin can't
00:27:33possibly win against Miss Evelyn.
00:27:35Evelyn is a Michelin starred
00:27:37chef. This hillbilly
00:27:40is just cannon fodder.
00:27:42Keep it down, or you'll be asked to leave.
00:27:48I added a special ingredient.
00:27:50Laxative.
00:27:52Just wait till you're disqualified.
00:27:54Disqualified.
00:28:08Just as I thought.
00:28:10Good thing I have my mentor's secret recipe.
00:28:14Can't even handle the basics.
00:28:16Totally immature.
00:28:18Try not to poison the judges
00:28:20with that shit.
00:28:22What's she doing?
00:28:24No seasonings?
00:28:26Hilarious. She's out for sure.
00:28:32Awful.
00:28:34Trash.
00:28:36This is an assault on my senses.
00:28:40Could there be a twist?
00:28:42Is Alex going
00:28:44to taste it?
00:28:46Up next, Michelin starred
00:28:48chef Evelyn Williams.
00:28:51Will this dish impress?
00:28:53Alex,
00:28:55you're in for a treat.
00:29:07Alex, this dish
00:29:09seems different.
00:29:11Seems like you're savoring it.
00:29:15Blech. Totally flavorless.
00:29:17It's like my taste buds were on a vacation.
00:29:19I'll forget this dish the moment that I'm finished with it.
00:29:21For a chef, nothing is
00:29:23worse than being mediocre.
00:29:29Dizzy.
00:29:31Is there no food worthy
00:29:33of a gourmand like me?
00:29:35Looks like his taste buds are as sharp as ever.
00:29:37Anyone willing to try
00:29:39this stew stuff?
00:29:41Chaotic stew.
00:29:43Zero presentation, zero appeal.
00:29:45This dish doesn't even
00:29:47warrant a critique.
00:29:49I really overestimated Ira.
00:29:51Looks like Alex
00:29:53isn't interested in Ira's dish either.
00:29:55Will our gourmand go home empty-handed?
00:29:57You guys don't understand.
00:29:59My stew will be
00:30:01unforgettable after just one bite.
00:30:09Ira, stop.
00:30:11You're an embarrassment to the profession.
00:30:13What's that?
00:30:16This familiar allure.
00:30:18I even want to try this ugly dish.
00:30:20What's happening?
00:30:22Why am I tempted by this ugly food?
00:30:24If I eat this,
00:30:26I may lose my reputation as a foodie.
00:30:28But I really want to try it.
00:30:38Objection!
00:30:40Ira's mess of a dish is bringing down
00:30:42the competition.
00:30:44Disqualify her.
00:30:46Do you think what you made was good?
00:30:54Emergency!
00:30:56Contestant Ira's taste testing segment has been abruptly halted
00:30:58because our head judge Alex has
00:31:00fainted!
00:31:02Alex, are you okay? Ira, I'm sure this is somehow your fault.
00:31:04Get away!
00:31:06I honestly
00:31:12didn't even want to try that dish.
00:31:14Guess I'll just have to make it again for you sometime.
00:31:18How is the boss?
00:31:20His eating disorder is getting worse.
00:31:22We need a hospital now.
00:31:24The culinary battle
00:31:26championship winner is
00:31:28Evelyn Williams!
00:31:36Just wait.
00:31:38I'll win Alex back.
00:31:44Alex, wake up!
00:31:46Hey, cut it out with the cheek pinch.
00:31:50Alex, you're finally awake.
00:31:52We thought we'd lost you.
00:31:54Ira, were you worried about me?
00:31:56Ira might actually have a thing for me.
00:31:58Feels not bad.
00:32:00Boss,
00:32:02you were out a long time.
00:32:05Alex,
00:32:07where are your supplements?
00:32:09Are you even taking care of yourself?
00:32:11I'm fine.
00:32:13It's just a sudden hunger pang.
00:32:15My body couldn't keep up with my appetite.
00:32:17Don't give me that.
00:32:19With those bloody standards,
00:32:21only a culinary guru could make you eat.
00:32:23Well, actually, I made that dish.
00:32:25Who are you?
00:32:27Grandma, this is Ira Williams.
00:32:29She's my wife now.
00:32:31Wife?
00:32:33Can you tolerate your pickiness?
00:32:35Dear,
00:32:37can you really make something Alex will eat?
00:32:41Well,
00:32:43Alex is as picky as a toddler.
00:32:45I'd finally made something
00:32:47he was willing to try, and then he fainted.
00:32:49Alex, you're so thin
00:32:51you could fit under a locked door.
00:32:53You're not looking healthy.
00:32:55Isn't he a handful?
00:32:57Alright, one more shot.
00:32:59The stew you made at the competition?
00:33:01Stay put.
00:33:03I'll cure you.
00:33:09What?
00:33:11Where's my seasonings?
00:33:13Easy there, Ira.
00:33:15You can still do it.
00:33:17It will just take a bit more time.
00:33:19Ma'am, the boss has fainted again.
00:33:21When's the dish ready?
00:33:23Again?
00:33:25Seriously?
00:33:27One sec.
00:33:30Strange. Hearing that Alex fainted
00:33:32made me cut my finger.
00:33:36It's just a little lubu.
00:33:38Who needs the culinary guru?
00:33:40Hang tight, Alex.
00:33:46I brought you the stew.
00:33:50Ira, you're late.
00:33:52Alex had my dish
00:33:54and is back on his feet.
00:33:56Oh, really?
00:33:58You made him faint at the competition?
00:34:00I gotta try it.
00:34:02Alex, you did eat
00:34:04my stuff, right?
00:34:06Yeah, thanks for that.
00:34:08Ira, get over here.
00:34:10Nope.
00:34:12Hey, what happened to your hand?
00:34:14So you do care, Alex?
00:34:16No, it's not like that.
00:34:18Just wrap it up before you bring me that stew.
00:34:20I don't want blood in my food.
00:34:22Forget that old stew.
00:34:24I'll take care of you and I can fix your eating problem.
00:34:26Everything from the culinary guru counts.
00:34:28Everything else is trash.
00:34:30You...
00:34:32I can pay you.
00:34:34I'm not after money.
00:34:36If Alex can eat my food, then I'm the best choice to be his wife.
00:34:38Teach Ira
00:34:40and let's get married.
00:34:42Marrying Alex
00:34:44means all his money is mine.
00:34:46Oh, don't count on me leaving Alex.
00:34:48That fortune is mine.
00:34:50Do you really want to be with someone
00:34:52after your cash?
00:34:55It's none of your business.
00:34:59Fawn, give me a band-aid.
00:35:05Alex promised to share
00:35:07his inheritance with me.
00:35:09Do it yourself.
00:35:13Hello?
00:35:15Hello, my dear apprentice.
00:35:17I just got my phone and called you.
00:35:19How are you?
00:35:21I miss you, my dear.
00:35:23Come for a visit.
00:35:25Awesome. My mentor is coming to visit.
00:35:27Robert, I need backup.
00:35:29I married this rich guy, Alex Thompson,
00:35:31and now my stepsister is after him
00:35:33and his money.
00:35:35What are you talking about?
00:35:37I'm not after money.
00:35:39Ira, is that how you talk about me?
00:35:41Your mentor is going to think I'm an asshole.
00:35:43Why do you care what he thinks?
00:35:45Maybe you should worry about your own problems.
00:35:49Alex, great news.
00:35:51Your appetite issues are about to be fixed.
00:35:53With me taking care of your meals,
00:35:55you'll be fine.
00:35:57Is her cooking skill really better than Ira?
00:35:59Actually, it's culinary guru.
00:36:01Really?
00:36:03Where is he?
00:36:05I've contacted master. He's coming to help you.
00:36:09I need to win Alex over before he arrives.
00:36:13She hung up on me.
00:36:15I tell you, that Ira is getting way out of line.
00:36:17Wait a minute.
00:36:19Isn't Alex Thompson the CEO
00:36:21with the eating disorder
00:36:23that Blake asked me to treat?
00:36:35Oh, my dear apprentice.
00:36:37I'm on my way.
00:36:41They think they can kick me to the curb
00:36:43just because they found a culinary guru?
00:36:46But I would get this stuff anyway.
00:36:48It actually got Alex
00:36:50to eat my food.
00:36:52But it's mine now.
00:36:56Once Alex drinks this love potion,
00:36:58he's all mine.
00:37:08Try my soup while it's still hot.
00:37:10How's it with the culinary guru?
00:37:12Could this seasoning be linked
00:37:14to the culinary guru?
00:37:16It's Ira's shit.
00:37:18That's a stretch.
00:37:20I could get used to it.
00:37:22Since you could finally eat,
00:37:24let me feed you.
00:37:26I got this. Thanks.
00:37:28Come on. Don't push me away.
00:37:30What's wrong with you?
00:37:32And why is it so hot in here?
00:37:34Seriously, Evelyn, get off.
00:37:36Feeling warm?
00:37:38Feeling warm?
00:37:40Let me help. Alex, something's off with the culinary guru.
00:37:46What are you doing here?
00:37:48This is how you help?
00:37:54I gotta see this.
00:38:00Get lost.
00:38:08Feeling better already, huh?
00:38:10She calls that help
00:38:12and you just watched me get groped.
00:38:22My heart.
00:38:24Am I sick too?
00:38:26Alex, you're burning up. Can I help?
00:38:28Yeah.
00:38:30I could use your help.
00:38:38Hey, what the hell?
00:38:40Well, you were overheating.
00:38:42You must have a fever.
00:38:44I thought it might cool you down.
00:38:46Did it work?
00:38:48Ira, you were such a dork.
00:38:52Dammit, Ira, you ruined my game.
00:38:54Seriously, you're such an idiot.
00:38:56You too, John.
00:38:58Alex, guess what?
00:39:00I met the culinary guru.
00:39:02He thinks I'm a prodigy
00:39:04and wants to take me on as his apprentice.
00:39:07If my master listens to me,
00:39:09I would make the right choice.
00:39:11Are you threatening me?
00:39:13With an apprentice like you,
00:39:15that culinary guru must be a joke.
00:39:17If I don't sweet-talk Alex into marrying me,
00:39:19I'll miss my shot when the culinary guru shows up.
00:39:21Alex, marry me
00:39:23and I'll make sure the culinary guru
00:39:25cures you.
00:39:27Not a chance.
00:39:29Is Ira finally waking up?
00:39:31Wait, Alex tossed your dish
00:39:33at the competition.
00:39:35You're getting him to eat it now.
00:39:39The seasoning Alex could eat,
00:39:41that was the one Ira left behind
00:39:43at the culinary guru contest.
00:39:45Could it be?
00:39:47She's his apprentice!
00:39:49Ira, what's your connection to the culinary guru?
00:39:51Why do you keep asking me that?
00:39:53I don't know any culinary guru.
00:39:55So Ira really is the culinary guru's apprentice
00:39:57and she doesn't even realize it.
00:39:59Well, maybe I can put that to use.
00:40:01Alex, how long can you wait?
00:40:03Don't you care about your health?
00:40:05Hands off the inheritance.
00:40:09Who's picking on my apprentice?
00:40:11Is that her mentor?
00:40:13Mentor?
00:40:15This be culinary guru?
00:40:17Robert, you're here!
00:40:19Great to see you, kid.
00:40:21I've missed you tons.
00:40:27Nice digs you got here, kid.
00:40:29You landed top-tier husband, didn't you?
00:40:32I can't believe you're finally here.
00:40:34I've missed you heaps.
00:40:36The culinary guru is here.
00:40:38Everyone, meet chef Robert McFonbey.
00:40:40This guy?
00:40:42No way he's the world famous culinary guru.
00:40:44He's as basic as Ira.
00:40:46Ira, bringing in some random grandpa
00:40:48just drags down Alex's reputation.
00:40:52Shut the fuck up, Evelyn.
00:40:54Don't insult my mentor.
00:40:56Let this queen twat yap.
00:40:58This is her only talent.
00:41:00This is her only talent.
00:41:02Who are you calling twat?
00:41:04Old coon?
00:41:06I am the culinary guru's apprentice.
00:41:08One phone call
00:41:10and I'll snuff you both out.
00:41:12The culinary guru's apprentice?
00:41:14Funny.
00:41:16Never heard of you.
00:41:20Please.
00:41:22People like you
00:41:24from the middle of nowhere wouldn't know a celebrity
00:41:26if you sat down right in front of me.
00:41:28Enough, Evelyn.
00:41:30Apologize to my mentor.
00:41:32What's so funny, old coot?
00:41:34You say you're the culinary guru's apprentice.
00:41:38Why not prove it?
00:41:40With a cook-off with my apprentice.
00:41:44I just won the culinary championship.
00:41:48Why would I be scared of you, Ira?
00:41:50Last time you already lost.
00:41:52I was out last time
00:41:54so that doesn't prove that Ira lost to you.
00:41:57Evelyn, I'm tired of your attitude.
00:41:59Threatening Alex with your cooking.
00:42:01Let's just see who's dish
00:42:03he actually wants to taste.
00:42:05Ira, get real.
00:42:07If Alex could stomach your food,
00:42:09he would have by now.
00:42:11We'll see.
00:42:19With my secret sauce,
00:42:21let's see you stand a chance, Ira.
00:42:23Now why does she have
00:42:25a special blend in her hand?
00:42:29Oh, no.
00:42:31Your fish, it's burning.
00:42:33What?
00:42:39You sly old man.
00:42:41Learn from me and you might succeed.
00:42:43Copy me and you're going down.
00:42:45Let's see you beat Ira now
00:42:47without my special blend.
00:42:51Alex will love this little kid food.
00:42:53Burn, baby, burn.
00:42:57All set.
00:42:59Just need my turkey.
00:43:05What the hell?
00:43:07Burnt?
00:43:09No time to fix this now.
00:43:15Come at me, sis.
00:43:17You're always going to lose.
00:43:23You have
00:43:25to try my dish.
00:43:27Where's Ira?
00:43:29I'm not hungry yet. I'll wait for her food.
00:43:31My sole is going to get cold,
00:43:33Alex.
00:43:35Why wait your stomach for Ira?
00:43:39What's taking her so long?
00:43:43What's going on, ma'am?
00:43:45Look, she has nothing, Alex.
00:43:47Looks like she's ready to throw in the towel.
00:43:49Ira?
00:43:52What's going on?
00:43:54Given to you, not a chance.
00:43:58Didn't even finish a dish
00:44:00and she's still talking big.
00:44:02Face it, Alex, she's all talk.
00:44:04Not marriage material.
00:44:06Who says I didn't finish?
00:44:08Just...
00:44:10What?
00:44:12Just hold your horses.
00:44:14Stop stalling, Ira.
00:44:16You miss the deadline, you lose.
00:44:18I'm the one who deserves that ring.
00:44:20Alex, you're not actually buying
00:44:22this, right?
00:44:24Ira, when did I ever say...
00:44:26Alex, just try this.
00:44:28When I win, Ira's out
00:44:30and the title's mine for good.
00:44:32Go on, Alex, dig in.
00:44:34Let's hear the verdict.
00:44:46Hey, you good, boss?
00:44:48That is the worst slop
00:44:50I have ever tasted.
00:44:52What the hell?
00:44:54What did you put in that?
00:44:56It's triggering his eating disorder.
00:44:58Impossible! My spices are perfect.
00:45:00Someone must have messed with them.
00:45:02Evelyn, really?
00:45:04You're calling this yours?
00:45:06That's mine.
00:45:08I couldn't find it at the competition.
00:45:10So you took it.
00:45:14Evelyn, really?
00:45:17You're a thief.
00:45:19Alex, you have to believe me.
00:45:21Vaughn, kick her out.
00:45:23Alex, just give me one more shot.
00:45:25I can whip him something amazing.
00:45:27Get lost.
00:45:29This can't be happening!
00:45:37Get that away from me.
00:45:39I can't even handle a protein shake right now.
00:45:4125 Oak Street.
00:45:43Yes, we have an emergency.
00:45:45Chronic eating disorder.
00:45:47Yes, we need help right away.
00:45:49Hang tight, my dish is almost done.
00:45:51Guess I'm doomed to starve
00:45:53as a foodie.
00:45:55Only the culinary guru gets me.
00:45:57So if the culinary guru doesn't show,
00:45:59you're off to meet
00:46:01the big man upstairs, huh?
00:46:07You know, Irish cooking
00:46:09has totally surpassed mine.
00:46:11You gotta try it.
00:46:13It's a flavor journey, man.
00:46:15I can't trust anyone anymore.
00:46:17Eating garbage every day.
00:46:19Just take me now.
00:46:23Alex, since you wanted a divorce,
00:46:25shall we figure out what happens next?
00:46:27Who talked about a divorce?
00:46:29I'm on my last legs here.
00:46:31Couldn't you at least comfort me?
00:46:33Weird.
00:46:35I kinda don't like seeing Alex like this.
00:46:38What's that noise?
00:46:42No need for the hospital.
00:46:44My roast chicken is ready.
00:46:54Here, Alex, chow down.
00:46:58Guess your fortune is mine.
00:47:00Forget about him, Ira.
00:47:02Let's dig in.
00:47:04Man, that smells amazing.
00:47:06Try a piece.
00:47:10Bugger.
00:47:12So sad my boss can't eat anything.
00:47:20Boss, this is the best food ever!
00:47:22You really gotta try some, please!
00:47:24Told you.
00:47:26Irish got skills.
00:47:28You can talk all you want.
00:47:30This world's food has burned too many times.
00:47:32I've told Alex my cooking could cure him.
00:47:34Do all husbands not trust their wives?
00:47:36Maybe I just need a normal guy.
00:47:38What are you after?
00:47:40Pretty boy? Handsome guy?
00:47:42I've got connections.
00:47:46Well, look who the cat dragged in.
00:47:50How was heaven treating you?
00:47:56Fine.
00:47:58One more shot.
00:48:00But remember, I'm a food critic.
00:48:03I'll be keeping it real.
00:48:05No sugar?
00:48:07If you want some, help yourself.
00:48:11What are you waiting for, a butler?
00:48:29What?
00:48:31You're better than the Culinary Guru.
00:48:33Boss is eating!
00:48:35I've gotta tell Lady Linda.
00:48:37Ira, what is your connection to the Culinary Guru?
00:48:41Why do you keep asking that?
00:48:43I don't know a Culinary Guru.
00:48:45He's probably just a scammer.
00:48:51Get over it already.
00:48:53But that box you made
00:48:55was just like the Culinary Guru.
00:48:57And your dish, Ira,
00:48:59even I, a top critic,
00:49:01I gotta admit, it's legit.
00:49:03Well, Robert made that one.
00:49:11Sorry, I forgot to say.
00:49:13I'm the one everyone's been talking about.
00:49:15I'm the Culinary Guru.
00:49:21What?
00:49:23And Ira here, my apprentice,
00:49:25is already better than I am.
00:49:29Oops.
00:49:33Why didn't you tell us sooner?
00:49:35Alex wouldn't have been sick this entire time.
00:49:37Ira,
00:49:39I didn't know you actually
00:49:41cared about me.
00:49:43Well, you're such a picky eater
00:49:45you had me believing that my cooking
00:49:47needed some serious work.
00:49:49So you've just been cooking for me
00:49:51to test your skills, huh?
00:49:53Boss!
00:49:55You're eating again!
00:49:57We're in the clear for the food court project.
00:50:01Alex, I whipped up a new dish.
00:50:03You gotta try it.
00:50:05Another review session?
00:50:07As your test subject.
00:50:09You know, I have my pride too.
00:50:11Why are you acting so serious?
00:50:17What's this mess?
00:50:19You know,
00:50:22you know I'm a bit of an eat freak.
00:50:26So, other than cooking,
00:50:28do you have any big dreams?
00:50:30I sure do!
00:50:43I need to save my dinner from burning.
00:50:49Life's better when you can actually eat.
00:50:52Why is my face so hot?
00:51:14Oh crap, I ruined it!
00:51:16My first time messing up a dish
00:51:18and it's all Alex's fault?
00:51:20I must be cursed.
00:51:22No way, I'm outta here.
00:51:26Oh, I love this suit.
00:51:28It's so nice.
00:51:34Alex, since you're feeling better,
00:51:36I'm outta here.
00:51:42So who's this?
00:51:46Hi, I'm Dina.
00:51:48Ira, you said you were leaving?
00:51:50You know what?
00:51:52I might stick around.
00:52:02Ira, what's the hurry?
00:52:04Grandma, Alex is downstairs
00:52:06chatting with some girl.
00:52:10Alex,
00:52:12I've missed you all these years.
00:52:14Oh really? I don't believe it.
00:52:17Grandma, who is she?
00:52:19I don't buy it either.
00:52:21She's just acting sweet.
00:52:23She's Alex's first crush.
00:52:25The one that left him to study abroad
00:52:27without a thought.
00:52:29Dina,
00:52:31didn't you swear you were done with this place?
00:52:39Alex, I've missed you all these years.
00:52:41I came back because my heart
00:52:43belongs to you.
00:52:45But Ira's catching feelings for Alex.
00:52:49I know I blew it before.
00:52:51I put my plans before us
00:52:53and threw away everything
00:52:55that we had, but I'm here.
00:52:57I'm willing to throw away all my pride,
00:52:59whatever it takes.
00:53:01Just say I'll give it one more chance.
00:53:03Dina, you left him with nothing but a letter.
00:53:05I was lost trying to make sense of it
00:53:07for so long.
00:53:09And now you're back. What's the point?
00:53:11Alex, I came back for us.
00:53:13I've never forgotten about us.
00:53:15After all these years,
00:53:17I know you still feel it too.
00:53:19You haven't forgotten what we had.
00:53:21Let's just give it another shot.
00:53:33Aren't you hungry, Alex?
00:53:35Let's go.
00:53:37Alex!
00:53:39Dina, I'm married now. Just go.
00:53:43Ow!
00:53:45Ow!
00:53:47Ow, my ankle!
00:53:49I twisted it.
00:53:51I twisted it. It hurts.
00:53:53Oh, Alex.
00:53:55Put the ointment on it like you used to.
00:53:57I haven't forgotten how sweet you are.
00:53:59I'll take care of it.
00:54:03Ow!
00:54:05Ira's acting all weird.
00:54:09Is she finally feeling jealous?
00:54:13Ow!
00:54:17No, Frank.
00:54:19She's totally faking it.
00:54:25Ow!
00:54:27Easy! You're crushing me.
00:54:29Oh, you're fine.
00:54:31But this time, I'm gonna make sure it really hurts.
00:54:33Ow!
00:54:36Ow!
00:54:42Ira, where are you going?
00:54:48Ira, you look like you lost your puppy.
00:54:50Alex's ex is back in town.
00:54:56You better keep your eye out.
00:54:58Alex is my husband. I'm not letting anyone take his fortune.
00:55:00Yeah, where a guy's heart goes,
00:55:02the wallet soon follows.
00:55:04Well, then I'll make sure Alex loves me.
00:55:06You got your work cut out for you.
00:55:08Body, she's got your beat.
00:55:10Looks,
00:55:12she's classy. You're comfy.
00:55:14She's got her degree,
00:55:16and you're still learning.
00:55:18Personality,
00:55:20she's sweet.
00:55:22You're hungry.
00:55:24And don't forget she's Alex's first love.
00:55:26Guys, don't forget that.
00:55:30Well, crap.
00:55:32I guess I don't stand a chance.
00:55:34Well, you got one ace up your sleeve.
00:55:36You were there for him
00:55:38and helped him through his
00:55:40eating disorders.
00:55:42You were there when he needed you.
00:55:44I've got to cook something good.
00:55:46There's no way I'm letting go of that fortune.
00:55:52Poor kid.
00:55:54She's kind of bad and doesn't even know it.
00:55:56Thinks it's all about the cash.
00:56:02Really? No second chance for me?
00:56:06Gina, I'm taking.
00:56:08Take care.
00:56:18Hi, it's Ira.
00:56:20Sorry I missed your call. Leave a message.
00:56:22Where's Ira?
00:56:24She's dodging my calls.
00:56:28That must be Ira.
00:56:31Time to see if she's jealous.
00:56:37Got it, Alex.
00:56:39I'll be leaving tomorrow.
00:56:41Let's have this drink as a farewell.
00:56:43Cheers to your next chapter.
00:56:57Are you alright?
00:56:59Here, let me help you.
00:57:09Oh, Alex.
00:57:11We have so much
00:57:13to catch up on after all this time.
00:57:17Alex, you have to try my new dish.
00:57:19Alex?
00:57:29Alex, Ira left because she's upset with us.
00:57:31What do you think we should do?
00:57:33Get off.
00:57:35Ira!
00:57:37Alex.
00:57:41Gina, seriously?
00:57:43You drugged my drink.
00:57:45That's low, even for you.
00:57:48Get off.
00:57:52You're going to regret this.
00:58:00Steven,
00:58:02the chef's apprentice is out.
00:58:04You're halfway to taking the food court project.
00:58:06Well done, Gina.
00:58:08Alex,
00:58:10remember when you trashed
00:58:12Snow for using garbage ingredients?
00:58:14This time, I'm going to wipe
00:58:16the floor with you and show you
00:58:18how wrong you were.
00:58:20We need top quality ingredients
00:58:22for this project, or-
00:58:24I got it.
00:58:26Oh, you've reminded me of something.
00:58:28Besides the apprentice of culinary grouper,
00:58:30Gallance has got his own head chefs.
00:58:32Come on back.
00:58:34I'll poach them all and leave him with nothing to fight back.
00:58:36Once we snag the food court project,
00:58:38I'll get my share, right?
00:58:40Absolutely.
00:58:42Okay, cut.
00:58:44Alex, I gave you a chance.
00:58:46This is all on you.
00:58:58She blocked me.
00:59:00Was she a teenager?
00:59:02Boss?
00:59:04We've got a problem.
00:59:06That stupid Steven's been stealing our chefs left and right.
00:59:08We won't have a head chef for the food city project next week
00:59:10and where it is, we're heading for bankruptcy.
00:59:13Of all the times for Ira to throw a fit.
00:59:15Get on it.
00:59:17Find us a new chef
00:59:19before the bidding meeting.
00:59:25Hot off the press,
00:59:27KL's group's top chefs
00:59:29have flocked over to
00:59:31Steven's snow group,
00:59:33leaving little doubt about who will win
00:59:35next week's food city project.
00:59:37Could this be the beginning of the end for KL group?
00:59:39Oh.
00:59:41Man, Alex is in trouble.
00:59:43So what? He has Gina now, doesn't he?
00:59:45Yeah, I guess.
00:59:47Alex is yesterday's news.
00:59:49I'm gonna go cook.
00:59:55Is it really that bad?
00:59:57Are you thinking about helping Alex?
00:59:59No.
01:00:03After the judges voting,
01:00:05the finalists for the food city bidding
01:00:07competition are
01:00:09KL group and
01:00:11snow group.
01:00:15Alright, folks.
01:00:17It's time for round two
01:00:19where we invite our Michelin starred chefs
01:00:21to the plate to create their magnum opuses.
01:00:23Let's get things started with
01:00:25snow group.
01:00:27Please give her a warm welcome, folks.
01:00:35Gina.
01:00:38Didn't expect this, did you, Alex?
01:00:42Gina's been on my side the entire time.
01:00:44All that talk of you two getting back
01:00:46together? Just a little trick
01:00:48to separate you from your precious apprentice.
01:00:50Alex.
01:00:52I gave you a chance.
01:00:56When you told
01:00:58everybody that my company uses inferior
01:01:00ingredients, I swore I
01:01:02was going to bring you down.
01:01:04Your character is just like your ingredients.
01:01:06Rotten on the inside
01:01:08and out.
01:01:10Keep talking tough, Alex.
01:01:12But where are you now?
01:01:14No head chef,
01:01:16no culinary genius.
01:01:18I'm going to snatch that project
01:01:20you've been drooling over and then
01:01:22I'm going to watch KL group
01:01:24crumble.
01:01:26Ladies and gentlemen,
01:01:28now we have the lovely
01:01:30Ms. Gina ready to present her dish.
01:01:32KL group,
01:01:34it's your turn to step up.
01:01:36What's going on?
01:01:38Why is there nobody on Alex's side?
01:01:40It looks like they're ready to wave the white flag.
01:01:42Folks, now I'm a head chef.
01:01:46Just go ahead and throw in the towel, Alex.
01:01:48Even if you squeak by
01:01:50the first round, you've got no one for the second.
01:01:56She's got me all wrong.
01:01:58I don't think she's coming back.
01:02:00This misunderstanding is too deep.
01:02:03Since we have no one
01:02:05from KL group to compete,
01:02:07I hereby announce that the winner is
01:02:09Snow!
01:02:11Wait a minute!
01:02:15Alex, I'm back.
01:02:19What's the score?
01:02:21We're toast.
01:02:23I thought Gina was your ace.
01:02:25Guess she's not cutting it, huh?
01:02:27It's not like that with her and me.
01:02:29And Gina's representing Steven in this competition.
01:02:31So your little reunion didn't go as planned?
01:02:33Ira,
01:02:35nothing happened with her.
01:02:37I will represent the KL group.
01:02:39I'll take Gina on myself.
01:02:41Aren't we expecting
01:02:43to see Michelin-starred chefs on stage?
01:02:45Are you really in that league?
01:02:47No, I'm not.
01:02:49How can she compete when she doesn't
01:02:51have any credentials, especially against Gina?
01:02:53I mean, she has
01:02:55royal chef status.
01:02:57Royal chef?
01:02:59I've never heard of it.
01:03:01I was trained by the culinary guru,
01:03:03though, if that means anything.
01:03:05What?
01:03:07The culinary guru hasn't been around for ages.
01:03:09And besides, Gina trained with
01:03:11the sea guru, Robert.
01:03:13She said she trained with him?
01:03:15I mean, what?
01:03:17Wait, you're
01:03:19the culinary guru's apprentice?
01:03:21So,
01:03:23Steven stole all of Alex's chefs.
01:03:25Well, I may not be
01:03:27the culinary guru's apprentice, but
01:03:29I have what it takes to represent the KL group.
01:03:31Why do you think you can represent KL?
01:03:33Because I'm his wife.
01:03:35That's why.
01:03:37Ira, you're a life saver.
01:03:39Let's see
01:03:41what you cook up.
01:03:43I'll give it a try
01:03:45and we'll see
01:03:47who takes the crown.
01:03:49And who are you, old man?
01:03:51What makes you think you're in charge here?
01:03:53He's Alan Dukas,
01:03:56from the DuPont group,
01:03:58the project's big cheese.
01:04:02Oh, he's definitely the one with the final say.
01:04:06Sir, this is the dish
01:04:08from Snow.
01:04:12Rich
01:04:14and aromatic,
01:04:16like you're basking in a warm
01:04:18Mediterranean sun.
01:04:20I created this with the combined efforts
01:04:22of three top chefs.
01:04:24So good luck beating that, Ira.
01:04:26You may be the culinary guru's apprentice,
01:04:28but that doesn't mean that you can outshine
01:04:30the work of four of us combined.
01:04:36Seriously,
01:04:38you think you can compete
01:04:40with something so simple and rough?
01:04:42This is what the culinary
01:04:44guru's apprentice comes up with?
01:04:46It's so inelegant.
01:04:48You don't understand. A chef who can't
01:04:50cook with pure ingredients will never
01:04:52make the best food.
01:04:54Ira's right.
01:04:56A chef who relies only on spices
01:04:58is a one-trick pony.
01:05:00I'd rather just drink my protein shakes.
01:05:12What's up with Alan?
01:05:14Why isn't he saying anything?
01:05:16You think the stuff is that bad?
01:05:18It must be terrible.
01:05:21Alan's in tears.
01:05:23No one asked your opinion.
01:05:25Mr. Alan, how does it taste?
01:05:29My dream since I was young
01:05:31was to taste the best food
01:05:33in the world.
01:05:35I never guessed I would do it today.
01:05:37I've waited 30 years
01:05:39for this dish.
01:05:41I declare the K.L. Group
01:05:43led by Alex, winner.
01:05:45This isn't fair!
01:05:47I used the best, most expensive ingredients
01:05:49for my dish. How can plain scrambled eggs
01:05:51beat that?
01:05:53If all they care about is chasing fancy and extravagant,
01:05:55that is not what the project needs.
01:05:57Snow Group
01:05:59doesn't cut it.
01:06:01Just wait, Alex. I'm gonna make you pay!
01:06:05Ira, you crushed it.
01:06:07Food City Project is ours.
01:06:09I told you I could do it.
01:06:11Miss Ira, I have to know
01:06:13what were you thinking
01:06:15while you were whipping those eggs
01:06:17I guess I was just
01:06:19thinking about
01:06:21someone special.
01:06:23Miss Ira,
01:06:25sounds like
01:06:27you have it for that person.
01:06:39Alex, you promised me
01:06:41a surprise.
01:06:43What is it?
01:06:46Miss Ira, thanks for everything
01:06:48in this competition.
01:06:50This is a family heirloom,
01:06:52meant for Mrs. Thompson.
01:06:54So Ira,
01:06:56will you be mine
01:06:58forever?
01:07:06Stay forever?
01:07:08That sounds boring.
01:07:10I haven't even explored the world yet.
01:07:12Guess I can't keep the bracelet, huh?
01:07:16Ira, do you not get it?
01:07:18Or are you just messing with me?
01:07:26Hey Alex, what's up? You called for me?
01:07:28I have two gifts for you.
01:07:32Here is a card
01:07:34with half my fortune.
01:07:36Take it as a thank you.
01:07:40Alex, you're the best.
01:07:42I love cash. Now I can buy all the ingredients
01:07:44I want and travel anywhere.
01:07:46Ira, I like you.
01:07:48I want to take our relationship
01:07:50to the next level. What do you think?
01:07:52How do you feel about me?
01:07:56You certainly have the money
01:07:58and you let me prove my cooking abilities.
01:08:00You really have made all my dreams come true.
01:08:02Ira,
01:08:04you want out, right?
01:08:06I'll give you the money
01:08:08and the freedom you want.
01:08:10Here's a divorce agreement.
01:08:12Let's end this.
01:08:24Ira, sign this
01:08:26and you're free.
01:08:28I'm leaving the country after it's done.
01:08:30Take care.
01:08:32I just remembered something.
01:08:40What?
01:08:46What does Alex mean?
01:08:54Why can't I stop thinking about him?
01:09:02Why was I thinking about Alex all night?
01:09:04Alex seemed off yesterday.
01:09:06Maybe I should cheer him up
01:09:09when I see him.
01:09:11Oh, crap. I never signed the divorce papers.
01:09:13How do I bring that up?
01:09:19Where's Alex?
01:09:21It feels weird not seeing him around.
01:09:25Grandma, where's Alex?
01:09:27Oh, Alex? He's at the airport.
01:09:29About to jet off.
01:09:31Congrats, honey.
01:09:33You'll finally be free.
01:09:35No more Alex to nag you.
01:09:37Alex!
01:09:45Boss, the plane is boarding.
01:09:47Looks like she's not coming.
01:09:49She didn't even bother to show up.
01:09:53Like I care.
01:09:55Vaughn, let's go home.
01:10:01Alex!
01:10:07I can't stand the thought of losing you.
01:10:11Ira, if I stay,
01:10:13you'll end up leaving.
01:10:15You want your freedom,
01:10:17and you don't love me.
01:10:19I can't be selfish and keep you trapped in this marriage.
01:10:21I don't want you to leave.
01:10:23Why not?
01:10:25Because when I'm not with you,
01:10:27you're all I think about.
01:10:29Alex,
01:10:31you asked me how I felt,
01:10:33and I finally know.
01:10:35I love you.
01:10:40Ira,
01:10:44I love you, too.
01:10:56I'm not fine, Alex.
01:10:58That's not real. It doesn't matter.
01:11:00Huh?
01:11:06So I give you
01:11:08my heart.
01:11:30Mmm. Nailed it.
01:11:32Oh, that smells
01:11:35great.
01:11:37It's a flavor bomb. Ira's cooking is always the best.
01:11:43Nice.
01:11:45So good. Thanks, Ira.
01:11:47Of course.
01:11:51My blue lobster!
01:11:53My gourmet tuna!
01:11:55My treasures!
01:11:57Chef McFlambé, what's wrong?
01:11:59You used all
01:12:01my top-shelf shit?
01:12:03All the ingredients go to waste, you know?
01:12:05We're done.
01:12:07We're like a diet soda at a barbecue,
01:12:09completely empty.
01:12:11Oh, you need money?
01:12:13Well, leave that to me. Let's rob a bank.
01:12:15Where did you hear that?
01:12:17The villagers know a guy who did it
01:12:19and walked away with a ton of easy cash.
01:12:21That's illegal.
01:12:23We don't go from chef to criminal.
01:12:25What's next, a recipe for jailhouse bread?
01:12:27Well, then how do we make money?
01:12:29Your cooking skills have surpassed mine.
01:12:32Well, why don't you come out and make some cash?
01:12:34There are endless ingredients down there,
01:12:36so you'll really shine.
01:12:38I'll be a world-famous chef.
01:12:54Watch out, world. Here I come.
01:12:57Vaughn has the prep
01:12:59for the culinary competition coming.
01:13:05Being anorexic is so bad.
01:13:12We have to find the culinary guru this time.
