00:00:00Welcome to the annual Culinary Cup.
00:00:05Over 100 chefs battled, and America voted
00:00:09to bring the six most talented to the stage today.
00:00:14Marc De Laurentiis, Vanessa Laurent,
00:00:20and Haley Riddle.
00:00:26My dream has always been to wear the culinary cup
00:00:31and crush Marc De Laurentiis.
00:00:33But now that I'm so close...
00:00:37From now on, the only words out of your mouth
00:00:40are going to be, yes, chef.
00:00:42Yes, chef.
00:00:52Give it up for our valedictorian Haley Rivers!
00:00:54Haley!
00:00:56I'm Diego, manager of Desire.
00:00:58Would you like to work under our head chef, Marc De Laurentiis?
00:01:15Father!
00:01:16I'm in!
00:01:17Revenge is best served cold.
00:01:21And soon we will feast.
00:01:29Salt, pepper, butter.
00:01:32Simple.
00:01:33And yet, deceptively complex.
00:01:36And that's how you cook a proper steak, okay?
00:01:42What is that?
00:01:48Is that good?
00:01:49Smell it.
00:01:50No.
00:01:51It's not good.
00:01:52It's a fucking piece of trash!
00:01:54Take your everything off.
00:01:55You're fired.
00:01:56Am I stuttering?
00:01:57So who won the cup?
00:01:58I...
00:01:59Oh my...
00:02:00I'm...
00:02:01I'm so...
00:02:02so sorry.
00:02:03I slipped.
00:02:04I...
00:02:05Who let you in?
00:02:06Mark.
00:02:07This is Haley.
00:02:08She just graduated from your alma mater.
00:02:10Top of her class.
00:02:11With a focus on pastries.
00:02:13I'm so sorry.
00:02:14I slipped.
00:02:15I...
00:02:16Who let you in?
00:02:17Mark.
00:02:18This is Haley.
00:02:19She just graduated from your alma mater.
00:02:21Top of her class.
00:02:22With a focus on pastries.
00:02:24You should know not to be late.
00:02:25I'm...
00:02:26I'm sorry.
00:02:27It was just two minutes.
00:02:28Two minutes?
00:02:29That is the difference between a rare and a well-done steak.
00:02:32I want you to cook me a steak.
00:02:35Have we met before?
00:02:37No.
00:02:38No.
00:02:39No.
00:02:40No.
00:02:41No.
00:02:42No.
00:02:43No.
00:02:44No.
00:02:45No.
00:02:46No.
00:02:47No.
00:02:48No.
00:02:49No.
00:02:50No.
00:02:51No.
00:02:52No.
00:02:53No.
00:02:54No.
00:02:55No.
00:02:56No.
00:02:57No.
00:02:58No.
00:02:59No.
00:03:00No.
00:03:01No.
00:03:02No.
00:03:03You have three chances to cook me a steak to satisfy me or you'll be fired.
00:03:23Just what I would expect from a pastry chef.
00:03:27You didn't even try it!
00:03:29Less butter!
00:03:30Instead of fucking croissant.
00:03:36This is drier than the fucking Sahara.
00:03:38More butter!
00:03:41I know.
00:03:43My secret ingredient.
00:03:53Tastes...
00:04:13Familiar.
00:04:15Did you splurvy?
00:04:17Yes.
00:04:19How did you know?
00:04:21Who taught you how to cook?
00:04:24My mother.
00:04:27He took another bite!
00:04:29He never takes a second bite of the same dish.
00:04:32Your mother...
00:04:34was a proper chef.
00:04:37Unlike you!
00:04:38You're in clean-up, do you from now on?
00:04:40Let the grease and the grime remind you to never be laid in my kitchen again.
00:04:49Thank you, chef.
00:04:50Thank you, chef.
00:04:51Yes, chef.
00:04:52Yes, chef.
00:04:53Okay, guys.
00:04:54So the culinary cup is in two weeks.
00:04:56And I'm going to win.
00:04:58Yes, chef.
00:04:59Yes, chef!
00:05:00Yes, chef!
00:05:07Hey, um, are you okay?
00:05:09Yeah, all good. I was just... cutting onions.
00:05:11It's okay.
00:05:12You can trust me.
00:05:13And I guess that's why they say you should never meet your heroes, right?
00:05:18I know that it sounds ridiculous, but despite all of this, I still have the biggest crush on him.
00:05:24Mark De Laurentiis may have a great ass, but he is an overrated asshole.
00:05:29In my office.
00:05:30Now.
00:05:31Stand!
00:05:32Chef, I'm very sorry about everything I said.
00:05:33Which part?
00:05:34That I'm an overrated asshole.
00:05:35Or that I have a great ass.
00:05:37That part I meant.

00:27:01doesn't have a couch.
00:27:03Perfect.
00:27:04You're all set.
00:27:05Have a great night.
00:27:11Well,
00:27:12I am going to

00:27:14No.
00:27:14What?
00:27:15Mark,
00:27:16it's been a long day.

00:28:43Oh,

00:28:51right?
00:28:52Yeah.
00:28:53Yeah,

00:29:01Yeah.
00:29:01Good night.
00:29:19Good night.
00:29:19Good night.
00:29:31What is he doing?
00:29:34Can I ask you
00:29:35a question?
00:29:37When did you know
00:29:38you wanted to be a chef?
00:29:40When I was four.
00:29:42On my birthday,
00:29:43my mom got me
00:29:44this kitchen play set
00:29:46and, uh,
00:29:47I never wanted
00:29:48to play with
00:29:49anything else.
00:29:50I remember
00:29:50playing, too.
00:29:52With my family's friend.
00:29:54I hated being a chef.
00:29:57So it changed.
00:29:57I actually started
00:30:02liking to be a chef
00:30:03at the
00:30:03the golden table.
00:30:06I used to play
00:30:07cooking with
00:30:08the chef's daughter
00:30:09at her little
00:30:10kitchen play set
00:30:12and
00:30:12we always
00:30:14thought about
00:30:15that one little
00:30:16part.
00:30:17Yeah,
00:30:17I want it.
00:30:18I want it.
00:30:19I want it.
00:30:20The red one.
00:30:24How did you know?
00:30:26Oh.
00:30:27Like I said,
00:30:32I had the same
00:30:33one,
00:30:34so didn't
00:30:34everyone?
00:30:41Yeah.
00:30:42As we got older,
00:30:45we started
00:30:45creating our own
00:30:46recipes.
00:30:48I'll call it
00:30:48crowd eggs.
00:30:50Then we could
00:30:50cook together.
00:30:52You can be me,
00:30:53soul chef.
00:30:54You mean
00:30:54sushi.
00:30:55Yeah.
00:30:57Started cooking
00:30:58all our first
00:30:59dishes.
00:31:00Seeing her cook
00:31:01was so
00:31:02great.
00:31:04She was so
00:31:04alive,
00:31:05so happy.
00:31:06And I think
00:31:07that changed
00:31:08something in me
00:31:09and I wanted
00:31:10to be a chef.
00:31:13But I wish
00:31:14I could cook
00:31:15with her again.
00:31:16Maybe you can.
00:31:18She's actually
00:31:18a lot like you.
00:31:20She always used
00:31:21throw bean
00:31:21in everything.
00:31:25Where did you
00:31:26say your
00:31:27mom was a
00:31:27chef?
00:31:29She was
00:31:30the best
00:31:31chef.
00:31:33But one of her
00:31:34best friends
00:31:35stole her
00:31:35recipes.

00:33:48I, uh, have to get home before it's dark.
00:33:51Your dad is kind of strict.
00:33:54I wonder what we can get done in a couple of hours.
00:33:59Hm?
00:33:59It's the taste of you, taste of you.
00:34:06Got me coming back for more.
00:34:08One taste ain't enough.
00:34:10No.
00:34:11I'm addicted to the taste of you.
00:34:13Got me feeling high, feeling low.
00:34:16Feeling things I never knew before.
00:34:19Can't get enough.
00:34:20No, I can't.
00:34:21I'm addicted to the taste of you.
00:34:24Taste of you.
00:34:25Give me that taste of your love.
00:34:28Oh, oh, oh.
00:34:30Can't get enough for more love.
00:34:32Ah!
00:34:35You got this, Hailey.
00:34:39The sooner you tell Adrienne about Mark, the better.
00:34:42I have never seen you dance or smile in the kitchen.
00:35:12before.
00:35:13Who are you?
00:35:14And what have you done with Mark?
00:35:18Shh.
00:35:19I'm sure.
00:35:22I met someone.
00:35:24Okay?
00:35:25Not someone.
00:35:26The one.
00:35:27Really?
00:35:30Well, what's her name?
00:35:32Where did you meet?
00:35:32I want to know everything.
00:35:34Nah, I don't want to jinx you.
00:35:38Surprise!
00:35:41Come on, babe.
00:35:42Come on.
00:35:42Come on.
00:35:43Come on.
00:35:43Yeah.
00:35:45Oh, my birthday's not for another month.
00:35:49I invited all of us here today to share in this magical moment.
00:35:52Dad, and Mr. and Mrs. Blackwell, Adrian, what's going on?
00:36:00First, I'd like to tell everyone here that you are now looking at America's newest millionaire.
00:36:06Woo-hoo!
00:36:08You sold the company.
00:36:09Congratulations.
00:36:10Now that we're rich, I think it's time to move on to our next chapter.
00:36:15Haley Rivers, will you marry me?
00:36:30Mark, slow down.
00:36:32All right?
00:36:33Remember what happened with Dominique?
00:36:34Your crazy ex.
00:36:36No, she is not like Dominique, okay?
00:36:37She's different.
00:36:38She makes me believe in cooking again.
00:36:40And she makes me believe in-
00:36:42Love?
00:36:42No, don't you say it, all right?
00:36:43You're scaring me.
00:36:45I don't like this happy dancing mark, all right?
00:36:56It's going to be one forever.
00:36:57Kind of need you to say something here.
00:37:02That's a yes!
00:37:03That's a yes!
00:37:07It fits.
00:37:09Congratulations, honey.
00:37:11Wow!
00:37:11I would also like to announce that I will be buying the golden table as a gift to my new
00:37:24fiancee.
00:37:25Signed this morning.
00:37:29What?
00:37:30Adrian, why don't we talk?
00:37:32Yeah.
00:37:32Okay, give us one second.
00:37:35It's done.
00:37:35You no longer have to work for that smug bastard, daylor, rent, or whatever, okay?
00:37:40You can just stay home.
00:37:41Diego, you are my best friend.
00:37:44My only friend.
00:37:47She's the right one.
00:37:49Trust me.
00:37:52Fuck, at least let me meet her.
00:37:54You know her.
00:37:56You actually introduced us.
00:37:58And I'm thinking to propose to her after we win the culinary cup.
00:38:07But I'm this close to getting Mark's recipes.
00:38:10Mark?
00:38:11I don't know.
00:38:12What the...
00:38:12Hayley, what is going on?
00:38:14Do you love him?
00:38:15Adrian, I...
00:38:17I...
00:38:18No.
00:38:27I can never leave him.
00:38:29I'm just using him for revenge.
00:38:32I'm going to destroy Mark De Laurentiis.
00:38:40Oh, here you are.
00:38:42I need to talk to you about our future.
00:38:45Listen up, team.
00:38:47Now that we are all here, I have some news.
00:38:50I have to come clean and tell you that Hayley and I...
00:39:00Hayley and I...
00:39:02Perfected De Laurentiis Beef Wellington.
00:39:06From today moving onwards, Hayley is going to be promoted to be a sous chef.
00:39:11And she will help me preparing all the dishes for the culinary cup and also join me in the competition.
00:39:19Hayley, what are you saying?
00:39:23It would be an honor, chef.
00:39:24Yes, chef.
00:39:25Yes, chef.
00:39:26Okay, guys.
00:39:27So for tonight, we are focusing on preparing all the dishes for the culinary cup.
00:39:33Let's get cooking, right?
00:39:34Yes, chef.
00:39:35Yes, chef!
00:39:36Come on!
00:39:37Take your apron off.
00:39:38Um...
00:39:39Okay?
00:39:40What?
00:39:41What?
00:39:42What?
00:39:43What?
00:39:44What?
00:39:45What?
00:39:46What?
00:39:47What?
00:39:48What?
00:39:52Take your apron off.
00:39:54Um...
00:39:55Okay?
00:39:56What?
00:40:05Rob.
00:40:10Mark Mark...
00:40:12Stop.
00:40:13Stop.
00:40:14We have to get back to the kitchen.
00:40:15We can't stop.
00:40:17I am done playing games, okay?
00:40:20Hayley, I want you.
00:40:23This time for real, Hayley Rose.
00:40:25You don't even know me.
00:40:27I know you.
00:40:28You have the feeling I know you for my whole life.
00:40:32Look, you're smart, you are funny, and you are sexy as hell.
00:40:37And I'm addicted to the taste of you.
00:40:41Oh, Mark, you have to get back to the kitchen.
00:40:49To the hell with the kitchen.
00:40:51All desire can burn.
00:40:52I don't care, okay?
00:40:53Do you feel that?
00:40:56Feel it.
00:41:02My heart is beating for you and all of you.
00:41:08Fine.
00:41:09Let desire burn then.
00:41:12I want to be the first time at De Laurentiis let a successful business burn.
00:41:26Bigger than golden table, I'm thinking of a golden kitchen.
00:41:28You did it!
00:41:39So what is he cooking?
00:41:40I don't know.
00:41:43I haven't looked yet.
00:41:44I couldn't.
00:41:47I feel like a cheater.
00:41:48We can now enter the golden table into the culinary cup.
00:41:51And with Mark's recipes, we're sure to win.
00:41:58Wait a minute.
00:42:00Is this a joke?
00:42:04That's his recipe book.
00:42:05These are Mark's recipes.
00:42:07These are yours.
00:42:08Grilled cheese, spaghetti, cloud eggs.
00:42:15What the hell is a cloud egg?
00:42:16No.
00:42:17This is my handwriting, but I don't remember writing these.
00:42:23This is from when you were a kid.
00:42:25When the both of you used to play together.
00:42:27Who are you trying to fool?
00:42:28I don't know what to tell you.
00:42:30I stole this from him.
00:42:32Why would he be reading your childhood recipes?
00:42:37Why would he be reading your childhood recipes?
00:42:42Maybe she got him next step.
00:42:43You know, there was this one time where she took my phone instead.
00:42:45Okay, that was one time.
00:42:47And no, this is his notebook.
00:42:53You are so perfect.
00:42:58Go get this real recipe.
00:43:02Go, go.
00:43:03You know what, Dad?
00:43:08That's it.
00:43:09I am so over this.
00:43:12I don't know what I can do to make you proud.
00:43:15I graduated top of my class.
00:43:17I became sous chef for Mark De Laurentiis.
00:43:20I don't even think this is about Mom's memory.
00:43:23This is just about your petty revenge.
00:43:26Which she totally botched.
00:43:32And you.
00:43:33You have treated me like shit
00:43:37ever since you got a taste of success
00:43:41with your shitty little startup.
00:43:44What I call selling a business for millions, stupid.
00:43:47It's a thing.
00:43:47I'm done with both of you.
00:44:00Well, what about Golden Table?
00:44:02Don't you care for this family?
00:44:04Yes, I care.
00:44:06All I do is think about the Golden Table.
00:44:08But I'm done.
00:44:11Hayley.
00:44:13Get back here.
00:44:14Get back here.
00:44:14What's going on?
00:44:32Shh.
00:44:34This is my kitchen now.
00:44:36From now on,
00:44:37the only words out of your mouth
00:44:38are going to be yes, chef.
00:44:41Yes, chef.
00:44:42Take off your shirt.
00:44:44Yes, chef.
00:45:06Taste me.
00:45:07Yes, chef.
00:45:09Yes, chef.
00:45:09Take me now.
00:45:25Yes, chef.
00:45:36Good morning.
00:45:37I thought it's time for some classic brunch.
00:45:42Scrambled eggs and croissant.
00:45:44I'm just going to give it real.
00:45:46Mine too.
00:45:48I'm starving.
00:45:49Let's get cooking.
00:45:50So, how much time do we have?
00:46:17About 30 minutes?
00:46:2130 minutes.
00:46:2230 minutes.
00:46:32Why do you have my notebook?
00:46:36I found it.
00:46:36I found it.
00:46:42I found it.
00:46:44And I have the same one when I was little.
00:46:46So, I must have gotten them confused.
00:46:54I belong to her.
00:46:57The girl who made me fall in love with cooking.
00:46:59I call it cloud eggs.
00:47:03I call it cloud eggs.
00:47:03You can't be me.
00:47:04Soul chef.
00:47:05You mean sous chef.
00:47:07Pretty sure it's soul chef.
00:47:09That was actually the last time I saw her.
00:47:12Our mothers got into an argument and then I.
00:47:14And I moved to Germany.
00:47:16All those years and you.
00:47:18You still kept that notebook?
00:47:20I mean, everyone has that kind of person, right?
00:47:23That impression from childhood.
00:47:26Strangely stick.
00:47:27And somehow, I became my mom.
00:47:35Cooking for profit.
00:47:37And sometimes, revenge.
00:47:41Well, it's easy to get lost.
00:47:44Cook for the wrong reasons.
00:47:47Until I met you.
00:47:51You made me fall in love.
00:47:54Not just with cooking.
00:47:56Mark, I...
00:47:57There's something I have to tell you.
00:48:03Shit.
00:48:08I got called in early for Mother's Day.
00:48:12You ready for Mayan?
00:48:18I'll tell him tonight.
00:48:19Adrian Blackwell, I work at Desire.
00:48:30And I have some information you might be interested in.
00:48:34I'm not interested.
00:48:36Please leave.
00:48:36Hayley and Mark are having an affair.
00:48:45Hayley and Mark are having an affair.
00:48:49That bitch.
00:48:51Should have known she was a liar.
00:48:53Question is, how can we ruin her?
00:48:57What does she love the most?
00:48:58Her family restaurant.
00:49:05Have you heard of the golden table?
00:49:07She's the daughter of Chef Maya?
00:49:11On top of stealing my love, she already owns her own restaurant?
00:49:15Hmm.
00:49:16Not anymore.
00:49:17Her father sold it to me.
00:49:18I was going to gift it back to Hayley.
00:49:24Now you need a new chef.
00:49:27And partner in crime.
00:49:31What flavor of crime are you thinking?
00:49:35I need a few ideas.
00:49:37Look, I don't understand, okay?
00:49:44Chef, our supplier said Hayley cancelled our whole order.
00:49:48Me?
00:49:49What?
00:49:49No, I didn't.
00:49:51Look, today's Mother's Day, okay?
00:49:54We have the first seating in one hour.
00:49:55And you're telling me we don't have any food?
00:50:00Chef, these are worse.
00:50:03But way worse.
00:50:05We've been waiting for an hour.
00:50:07This better be good.
00:50:09I pay thousands.
00:50:11Three mentionless stars in my ass.
00:50:13How about a one-star Yelp review?
00:50:14Ladies and gentlemen, please remain calm.
00:50:16There seems to be a minor glitch in our reservation system.
00:50:22What's going on?
00:50:24Well, everybody's reservation somehow got booked for the same kind.
00:50:29We're overbooked and we don't have any food.
00:50:37I have the best hackers in Silicon Valley on my payroll.
00:50:42Desire's reservation system's a fucking joke.
00:50:45And I just canceled all of our supplier shipments for today.
00:50:48So you're telling me there's an angry mob of starving superfans out there?
00:50:53And no food to serve them.
00:51:00I think we have to cancel today's service.
00:51:04Or we could embrace the chaos.
00:51:11Diego, go out there and tell everyone that they will be having an only Kasei menu tonight.
00:51:17Servers, make sure everybody stays happy.
00:51:20Clear the tables.
00:51:21Pump up the music.
00:51:22And bring out the wine.
00:51:24We're having a Mother's Day party tonight.
00:51:26Come on, go.
00:51:29Everybody go.
00:51:29What are you waiting for?
00:51:30Yes, chef.
00:51:33Okay, where are you going to see for me?
00:51:36You can't make them drunk enough to forget that they're hungry.
00:51:40Well, then we'll just have to source locally.
00:51:42But it's Sunday night.
00:51:43All of the suppliers are closed.
00:51:46Mark, follow me.
00:51:56How would you like to be our supplier for today?
00:52:00We need protein.
00:52:03We have chicken nuggets.
00:52:06Chicken nuggets.
00:52:07Yes.
00:52:08Well.
00:52:09What are we doing with chicken nuggets?
00:52:10We could de-kidstrap peas, potato chips, wasabi peas, crusted chicken.
00:52:17Soy sauce, honey reduction glaze, sweet and sour umami.
00:52:22Yes, and instant ramen for extra texture.
00:52:26What are you thinking for dessert?
00:52:34Ah, okay, we have ice cream.
00:52:37Do you have coffee?
00:52:39Yes, we do.
00:52:40But we just ran out, but I couldn't brew some more.
00:52:43What are you thinking, Karen Masoud?
00:52:50How much of a risk are you willing to take on me?
00:52:52Can we do whatever it takes?
00:52:58Okay, coffee, please.
00:52:59Yes, yes, coffee.
00:53:08And how are we doing tonight, gentlemen?
00:53:11It's taking that so long.
00:53:12Okay, chefs, come on.
00:53:19We're already late.
00:53:20Let's cook like we've never cooked before, okay?
00:53:23Yeah.
00:53:24Let's go.
00:53:25Chicken nuggets.
00:53:35One for the peas.
00:53:36Dinner is served, everyone.
00:53:51Now, we know this is not our usual menu tonight, so we appreciate you all for being so flexible.
00:53:57And because it's mother's stay, everything's on the house.
00:54:05They're enjoying themselves?
00:54:15Are you ready to make something sweet?
00:54:17Chef.
00:54:25Oh, my God.
00:54:27This is so good.
00:54:28You should try it.
00:54:30Chef, why are you eating the slurpees?
00:54:32Have you never had one before?
00:54:34No.
00:54:35I'm clearly missing out.
00:54:36Okay, that's great.
00:54:37Well, let's get back to work, please.
00:54:39Hand on over.
00:54:41Oh.
00:54:41And for our last dish of the night, we present a wild berry granita.
00:54:53Enjoy.
00:54:56Thank you for all that doesn't leave.
00:55:00Wow, just off tips alone, that was our most lucrative night.
00:55:04Ever.
00:55:05And we've gone viral on social media.
00:55:09Thanks to you, Haley.
00:55:10She saved us.
00:55:17Oh, and Mark, there was a VIP guest here who wanted to give his personal compliments to
00:55:22the chef.
00:55:25Yeah, please.
00:55:26Take a seat.
00:55:33Now, I heard your food was exquisite.
00:55:35But after tasting it myself, it's worse than convenience store food.
00:55:41Um, excuse me.
00:55:43I thought you wanted to give your compliments to the chefs?
00:55:46Compliments?
00:55:47No, no.
00:55:49Complaints.
00:55:50This was the worst experience I've ever had in my dining career.
00:55:54So tell me, who's responsible?
00:55:59I take full responsibility.
00:56:02So tell me, is there anything we can do to make this right?
00:56:07Hmm.
00:56:09Or you could start by firing her.
00:56:11Um, well, I am sorry to say, but our sous-chef is irreplaceable, I desire.
00:56:23Hmm.
00:56:24I get it now.
00:56:27You two are fucking.
00:56:28Tell me, how long has this been going on, you slut?
00:56:36Hey.
00:56:38Watch it.
00:56:40Where have you been doing it?
00:56:42Hmm?
00:56:42The kitchen?
00:56:43The kitchen?
00:56:53Are you going to finish that?
00:56:58So the culinary cup is this weekend, right?
00:57:03So I need to tell you my recipes, right?
00:57:05Oh, um, your recipes.
00:57:09Ever since my ex stole them, I'm never writing them down.
00:57:13I always have them locked in here.
00:57:16But I know I can trust you.
00:57:18So for the first dish, I thought...
00:57:20No, um, you know what?
00:57:23Actually, don't tell me.
00:57:24But I need to tell you the dish if you want to win the cup.
00:57:31Okay.
00:57:32So for the first dish, I thought we...
00:57:34I'm not who you think I am.
00:57:40I'm not who you think I am.
00:57:45Who are you?
00:57:46My mom left that year.
00:57:53She said that is one of her most cherished memories.
00:57:57Do you know her?
00:57:59Yes.
00:58:01Chef Maya.
00:58:04She's...
00:58:04The first woman who won the culinary cup.
00:58:07My mom and her were actually besties before they had a fallout.
00:58:11After she lost.
00:58:13Lost?
00:58:13Wow.
00:58:15Really?
00:58:16Your mom stole Chef Maya's recipes.
00:58:19My mom did what?
00:58:21She was jealous that Chef Maya beat her,
00:58:24so she stole her recipes to try and win the next year.
00:58:27And then she tried to buy out the golden table.
00:58:30Who told you that nonsense?
00:58:33Why did your mom make several of Chef Maya's dishes at the culinary cup, huh?
00:58:38See?
00:58:39She's got nothing.
00:58:40Look, I was a kid, and I was in the kitchen at the kitchen staff talking.
00:58:46Chef Maya's husband gave my mother the recipes.
00:58:51You're lying.
00:58:53Why?
00:58:54I don't believe you.
00:58:56They were having an affair.
00:58:57I remember my mom told me that Chef Maya wanted to sell the golden table
00:59:06because she wanted to quit luxury dining,
00:59:08and she wanted to focus on what she lost.
00:59:11Pastries.
00:59:12No, I don't believe you.
00:59:13And that's when Chef Maya's husband started visiting you off.
00:59:18No, stop.
00:59:20That's not true.
00:59:21It is true.
00:59:25Wait, why are you so emotional?
00:59:27Do you work for the golden table?
00:59:36Out of all the restaurants in L.A., how did you end up in my kitchen?
00:59:40I came to steal your recipes.
00:59:42To represent the golden table in the culinary cup
00:59:45and take down desire in the same way that your mother took down us.
00:59:48So this is all fate?
00:59:52You and me?
00:59:54No, Mark, it was, but it's...
00:59:57Get out!
00:59:58Mark, please, I can explain.
01:00:01What else did you lie about, huh?
01:00:04Are you married?
01:00:05Do you have kids?
01:00:07I was engaged.
01:00:09I was engaged.
01:00:14Engaged?
01:00:14Holy shit.
01:00:19To the guy that I punched?
01:00:21Is that the guy, huh?
01:00:23Yes, but I broke it off, okay?
01:00:25And it's not happening anymore.
01:00:28I don't love him.
01:00:29I love you.
01:00:37So Diego was right.
01:00:40You're just like Dominique.
01:00:42Mark, please.
01:00:43You're fired!
01:00:44Haley, Elizabeth, whoever the fuck you are.
01:00:49Get out.
01:00:51Get out!
01:00:52Get out!
01:01:11No.
01:01:11Hello.
01:01:16Yes, this is Haley Rubbersmith.
01:01:21Oh my God.
01:01:24I'll be there in a second.
01:01:29Dad!
01:01:30Dad!
01:01:31Haley?
01:01:33He took it.
01:01:34He took everything.
01:01:35Oh.
01:01:36He took the cone table from us, Haley.
01:01:37No.
01:01:37No.
01:01:37No.
01:01:38He can't do that.
01:01:39Oh.
01:01:39Oh.
01:01:40Oh.
01:01:40What?
01:01:41What?
01:01:41Adrian!
01:01:42He keeps me out.
01:01:43He took the cone table from us, Haley.
01:01:45No.
01:01:45No.
01:01:46He can't do that.
01:01:47I can sign over to you.
01:01:50And now that you guys are broken up.
01:01:53Haley, you gotta get the cone table back for us.
01:01:57For your mother.
01:01:58For your mother.
01:01:58For your mother.
01:01:59Ah!
01:01:59Ah!
01:02:00Ah!
01:02:00Ah!
01:02:01Ah!
01:02:01Ah!
01:02:02Ah!
01:02:02Well, well, well, if it isn't my ex-fiancée.
01:02:14Mmm.
01:02:15Adrian, I'm so, so sorry, but please, give me my mother's
01:02:24breaststroke back.
01:02:25And what do I get in return?
01:02:28I can cook for you.
01:02:31Uh, I can, anything, but please, it's all I have left of her.
01:02:37Can't you see, Haley?
01:02:38I'm trying to ruin your life.
01:02:40You and your pretty little boyfriend.
01:02:42Haley!
01:02:43My BFF!
01:02:45How does it feel to be stabbed in the back?
01:02:48Vanessa?
01:02:49I thought we were friends.
01:02:52Friends?
01:02:53After you stole Mark and my dream job?
01:02:57Friends?
01:02:58We can't wait to destroy you and your new little boy toy.
01:03:08What are you two planning?
01:03:11Well, you'll have to find out for yourself at the Culinary Cup.
01:03:14Or not.
01:03:15I heard that Mark fired you.
01:03:18And you've lost the golden table.
01:03:20A chef without a restaurant can't even compete.
01:03:23Hmm.
01:03:24Haley.
01:03:25It's okay.
01:03:26Sit.
01:03:27Why did you make me a spy?
01:03:29Why did you send me into desire?
01:03:43Ingrid DeLaurentis ruined our lives, and the apple certainly doesn't far from the tree.
01:03:56Yeah.
01:03:57Well, Mark told me a pretty outrageous lie.
01:04:01He said that you and Ingrid DeLaurentis were having an affair and that you gave her mom's recipes before the competition.
01:04:08Don't.
01:04:09Don't.
01:04:10Don't.
01:04:11Don't.
01:04:12Don't.
01:04:13Don't.
01:04:14Don't.
01:04:15Okay.
01:04:16It's time to tell you the truth.
01:04:19Ah.
01:04:20The truth is, your mother, she wanted to close the golden table and go into pastries.
01:04:33And I couldn't allow her to ruin her future.
01:04:37Your future.
01:04:38You mean your future?
01:04:40I was just disappointed in your mother.
01:04:44While Ingrid, oh, she had a vision for an empire of restaurants desire.
01:04:51And I knew that she could go all the way.
01:04:54And she did.
01:04:56You're a despicable man.
01:05:00Man, you gotta understand, Ingrid and I, we were in love.
01:05:04Not just with each other.
01:05:06With fame, fortune, glory.
01:05:13And then when your mother, she lost the competition.
01:05:19She got sick.
01:05:22She couldn't cook.
01:05:23She couldn't eat.
01:05:24And she had to use the eating too.
01:05:27It was torture.
01:05:31When she died.
01:05:34So did Archery.
01:05:37We were so guilty.
01:05:38I'm sorry.
01:05:39I'm sorry.
01:05:40Then why the obsession with taking down the De Laurentises?
01:05:45To keep your mom's legacy alive.
01:05:49The golden table.
01:05:50That was her life's work.
01:05:56Don't you fucking get it, Dad?
01:05:59She didn't care about the golden table.
01:06:02She didn't care about legacy.
01:06:05She cared about us.
01:06:07Community.
01:06:08We were her life's work.
01:06:14Hey, Hailey.
01:06:15Oh.
01:06:28Chef.
01:06:30Good luck at the culinary competition tomorrow.
01:06:32I know you're gonna win.
01:06:34Is there anything else I can maybe help you with?
01:06:36I heard that Hailey is no longer with us.
01:06:38I just got finished washing the dishes, so.
01:06:41Please, just let me be.
01:06:46You're dismissed.
01:06:50Fucking hell.
01:06:59Stefan, I was always invisible to you.
01:07:03I heard that the competition is gonna be explosive this year.
01:07:06Do you know what happens when dry ice needs boiling water?
01:07:12Good luck.
01:07:13Chef.
01:07:22Come on.
01:07:23Mark.
01:07:24Let me see.
01:07:25Let me see.
01:07:26Let me see.
01:07:27We need to call an ambulance.
01:07:29The competition.
01:07:30This weekend.
01:07:32What are you gonna do?
01:07:33Can you be my suit, Chef?
01:07:37Yes, Chef.
01:07:43You're welcome.
01:07:45That was a close one.
01:07:46No more drama.
01:07:47Happy thoughts only.
01:07:49Pumpkin.
01:07:51I'm so sorry, Pumpkin.
01:07:54Let's just let bygones be bygones.
01:07:56Because now, all I want is for you to be happy.
01:08:04Pumpkin.
01:08:05How's life?
01:08:07You okay?
01:08:08Looks like something's wrong.
01:08:10Dad, I've...
01:08:13I think I might be in love.
01:08:15That's great news.
01:08:17Is he rich?
01:08:19Sorry.
01:08:20That's old house.
01:08:21Who is he?
01:08:24Well, he is rich.
01:08:26Thank God.
01:08:28He's very, very rich.
01:08:30And his name is...
01:08:32Mark DeLorean.
01:08:33No!
01:08:34Dad!
01:08:35Dad, are you okay?
01:08:36No, no. It's okay.
01:08:37Oh my gosh.
01:08:39Mark.
01:08:41Does he love you too?
01:08:43He loathes me.
01:08:45Oh my God.
01:08:46He just fired me for being a spy.
01:08:49And now Adrian's gonna sabotage the Culinary Cup,
01:08:52and I don't even have a restaurant to get in, so...
01:08:55Okay.
01:08:56That's it.
01:08:57I...
01:08:58No! Dad, you're sick.
01:08:59I'm sick of this hospital.
01:09:01Come on, sneak me out of here, please.
01:09:04Look.
01:09:05I have a solution.
01:09:07Welcome to the annual Culinary Cup.
01:09:14Over 100 chefs battled,
01:09:16and America voted to bring the six most talented to the stage today.
01:09:21Now, let's meet our contestants.
01:09:23Mark Diller enters, from Desire.
01:09:26Will he defend his title, or will his reign come to an end?
01:09:31Vanessa, what are you doing? I need your hand. I can't do it alone.
01:09:34Oh, that's too bad.
01:09:36Because it seems I may have double booked.
01:09:39Next, Vanessa Laurent.
01:09:41Once a chef at Desire,
01:09:43now executive chef of the rebranded Golden Table.
01:09:48Looks like we have our first backstabbing of the competition.
01:09:53Now I know all your recipes.
01:09:56For years, I had the biggest crush on you, Mark.
01:09:59And you never even bothered to learn my name.
01:10:01And now I am going to crush you and Desire.
01:10:09And finally, our wild card entry from a viral pop-up food cart.
01:10:14Let's welcome...
01:10:15I'm here with Hayley Rivers, whose pop-up food cart, Mother's Table, has gone viral.
01:10:30Hayley, why do you think people showed up so strongly?
01:10:32Oh, well...
01:10:34At Mother's Table, we believe that food doesn't have to be fancy to be good.
01:10:37And at Mother's Table, we may not have stars, but we have a part.
01:10:42Oh, I love that.
01:10:43And how far can this food cart go?
01:10:45All the way to the Culinary Cup.
01:10:47Across the street, you have 24 hours to vote.
01:10:50And I'm Hayley's father. Vote Mother's Table!
01:10:53Let's welcome Hayley Rivers.
01:10:56Ruffin' Mother's Table.
01:10:57By the end of today, one chef will be crowned the Culinary Cup champion!
01:11:14Woo!
01:11:16First impressions are everything, so your task is to create an appetizer that introduces you and your taste.
01:11:22The clock is set, your ingredients await.
01:11:26Three...
01:11:28Two...
01:11:29One...
01:11:30Cook!
01:11:31Time's up, chefs!
01:11:56Now first up, Chef Laurent.
01:11:58This is my yuzu and smoked sea salt ceviche.
01:12:02My hope is to invoke a cool ocean breeze with each bite.
01:12:10For the appetizer, I prepared a Wagyu tartar and balanced the heavy flavor.
01:12:16I have balsamic made out of scarlet bell starters.
01:12:28Hello. Hi, judges. At my pop-up mother's table, we value comfort.
01:12:38And two of my favorite things to bake are flans and tarts.
01:12:43So this is a tart flan.
01:12:47It's fusion?
01:12:48Call me a traditionalist, but I won't ever taste fusion food.
01:12:53It's effortless. It's not fusion. It's something completely new.
01:12:57The judges have voted. The following three will move on to the second round.
01:13:04Mark De Laurentiis, Vanessa Laurentiis, and Haley Rivers.
01:13:18Well, before we proceed, let's hear a few words from our three funnels.
01:13:21Chef De Laurentiis, you're no stranger to the stage.
01:13:25But now you're competing against two of your former chefs.
01:13:29What do you make of your competitors?
01:13:31That's an easy question.
01:13:34Chef Laurentiis, she's an excellent dishwasher.
01:13:38Although I found a little stain in her dish.
01:13:42You are fired, by the way.
01:13:45And Chef Rivers.
01:13:47And Chef Rivers.
01:13:48She is a dangerous woman and an excellent chef.
01:13:54Mark is a lousy excuse of a man.
01:13:57And Haley only got to where she got because she swapped her way to the top.
01:14:02What do you have to say for yourself, Chef Rivers?
01:14:07Um...
01:14:09I...
01:14:14I...
01:14:15I think that maybe in another life, in another kitchen, we maybe could have been friends.
01:14:23Or...
01:14:24More.
01:14:25Um...
01:14:26Good luck.
01:14:27Vanessa.
01:14:28Mark.
01:14:29Aw!
01:14:31Well, there you have it.
01:14:33You guys ready for round two?
01:14:34Yeah!
01:14:35All right.
01:14:36Woohoo!
01:14:37Cook.
01:14:38Any cuisine.
01:14:39But you must incorporate this special ingredient.
01:14:41What is it?
01:14:42Can everybody say cheese?
01:14:44Cheese!
01:14:45Cheese!
01:15:06It appears Chef De Laurentiis has dropped his entree.
01:15:19He'll be judged solely on his appetizer alone.
01:15:22Is that a grilled cheese?
01:15:25What is this?
01:15:26A school lunch?
01:15:27What's the most important part about grilled cheese?
01:15:30It's not the cheese, but the bread.
01:15:31That perfect contrast between crispy exterior and gooey interior.
01:15:35The bread.
01:15:37It's almost laminated like a croissant, but grilled.
01:15:41I haven't seen bread this good since judging the Culinary Cup winner, Chef Maya Miller.
01:15:48The two chefs to move on to our final round are...
01:15:55The two chefs to move on to our final round are...
01:15:59Chef Vanessa Laurent!
01:16:01Yes!
01:16:02And...
01:16:03Chef Haley Rivers!
01:16:04Yes!
01:16:05Yes!
01:16:06Yes!
01:16:07Yes!
01:16:08Yes!
01:16:09Yes!
01:16:10Yes!
01:16:11Yes!
01:16:12Yes!
01:16:13And how about a round of applause for Chef Mark De Laurentiis?
01:16:16Wait, Mark.
01:16:17Why don't you join Mother's Table?
01:16:18Well, folks, it looks like we might have an alliance brewing over here.
01:16:23The Culinary Cup has never had two contestants join together.
01:16:29I was supposed to be his sous chef originally.
01:16:30We were supposed to work together.
01:16:31There are no rules against it, so it's up to Chef De Laurentiis.
01:16:36I don't know what to say.
01:16:37Except...
01:16:38You're going down, Vanessa.
01:16:39I don't know what to say.
01:16:40Except...
01:16:41You're going down, Vanessa.
01:16:42No.
01:16:43I don't know what to say.
01:16:44Except...
01:16:45You're going down, Vanessa.
01:16:46Well, folks, get ready for our final round right after these messages.
01:16:59I don't know what to say.
01:17:00Except...
01:17:01You're going down, Vanessa.
01:17:03Well, folks, get ready for our final round right after these messages.
01:17:13So...
01:17:17What's your better plan for tonight?
01:17:19Um...
01:17:20I was thinking maybe a quiche.
01:17:22A quiche?
01:17:23I don't know.
01:17:25I didn't actually think I'd get this far.
01:17:28Chefs, welcome to the final round of the Culinary Cup.
01:17:32The theme of your final dish is...
01:17:36The Last Supper.
01:17:38The judges would like to see a signature dish that defines your career.
01:17:41This is your final statement.
01:17:43The last dish you will want to leave on this earth.
01:17:45Let's get started.
01:17:463...
01:17:472...
01:17:481...
01:17:49Go!
01:17:50I need this.
01:17:51Okay.
01:17:52If you want to do this, we have to stop fighting.
01:17:54Okay.
01:17:55Think.
01:17:56What are our strengths?
01:17:58Well, you are the protein king, so...
01:17:59Please don't call me.
01:18:00What?
01:18:01You have the best meat I've ever tasted.
01:18:03Okay.
01:18:04You have the best meat I've ever tasted.
01:18:06Okay.
01:18:07You can say that again.
01:18:08Okay.
01:18:09Um...
01:18:10And you are clearly the pastry queen.
01:18:13Wow.
01:18:14So...
01:18:15So...
01:18:16What?
01:18:17So...
01:18:18So...
01:18:19What's something that showcases both of our talents?
01:18:23Be ready.
01:18:24You make the pastry.
01:18:25Okay.
01:18:26And...
01:18:27You make the tenderloin.
01:18:28Got it.
01:18:31Were you always bad rough?
01:18:34Yeah.
01:18:37It didn't make the test.
01:18:38So what's something that showcases both of our talents?
01:18:39What?
01:18:40Be ready.
01:18:41You make the pastry?
01:18:42Okay.
01:18:43And...
01:18:44You make the tenderloin.
01:18:45Got it.
01:18:58Were you always bad rough?
01:18:59All right, give me your meat.
01:19:06Well, it's time to make it rice, huh?
01:19:18Now for my signature garnish.
01:19:25Wow, it looks like Chef Laurent's finished.
01:19:28With ten minutes to spare.
01:19:43What do you want?
01:19:45I just wanted to say I'm sorry for everything.
01:19:50Will you forgive me for the damage that I caused?
01:19:53Mark, no hard feelings, right?
01:20:09No.
01:20:11Your signature shallots.
01:20:14What an explosive garnish.
01:20:16Hey!
01:20:17Hey.
01:20:18Hey.
01:20:19Are you okay?
01:20:21Did any oil hit you?
01:20:22No.
01:20:23I'm fine.
01:20:24I'm fine.
01:20:25I'm fine.
01:20:26I'm fine.
01:20:27I'm fine.
01:20:28It's Pete Wellington.
01:20:29It's ruined.
01:20:30Are we gonna lose now?
01:20:31Hey, look.
01:20:32My whole life I've been told how important this competition is.
01:20:46But there's some more to this world than just cups, stars, and dollar signs.
01:20:51Right?
01:20:52I have one more dish to go.
01:20:53It's impossible.
01:20:54No, Chef.
01:20:55No, Chef.
01:20:56No.
01:20:57No.
01:20:58No.
01:20:59No.
01:21:00No.
01:21:01No.
01:21:02No.
01:21:03No.
01:21:04No.
01:21:05No.
01:21:06No, no.
01:21:07No.
01:21:08No.
01:21:09No.
01:21:10No.
01:21:11No.
01:21:12No.
01:21:13No.
01:21:14No.
01:21:15No.
01:21:16No.
01:21:17It's impossible!
01:21:21No chef could win the Culinary Cup with only five minutes.
01:21:25And with no ingredients?
01:21:26If anyone could, it's Chef Rivers.
01:21:28The best student I've ever had.
01:21:30What are you doing? We have only five minutes.
01:21:47What's this?
01:22:15She seems to have frozen in place. Is she choking?
01:22:24For you, Mark.
01:22:45I call it Cloud Eggs because behind the cloudy white is a red sun ready to shine.
01:23:00Do you like it?
01:23:05You know, I'm going to be the greatest chef in the world.
01:23:09Really? Maybe I will too.
01:23:10Then we should cook together. You could be my soul chef.
01:23:14You mean sous chef?
01:23:15Pretty sure it's soul chef.
01:23:16Let's go.
01:23:17Mark, why don't you take my cookbook so we could cook together again?
01:23:20I'm going to be the greatest chef in the world.
01:23:23Do you like it?
01:23:24You know, I'm going to be the greatest chef in the world.
01:23:26Really?
01:23:27Maybe I will too.
01:23:28Then we should cook together.
01:23:29You could be my soul chef.
01:23:31You mean sous chef?
01:23:33Pretty sure it's soul chef.
01:23:35Let's go.
01:23:36Mark, why don't you take my cookbook so we could cook together again?
01:24:00It's you.
01:24:03It's always been you.
01:24:05Chef Maya Miller was my mother.
01:24:09You kept my notebook.
01:24:11All those years.
01:24:13You're my first soul chef.
01:24:16One, four, three, two, one.
01:24:26And the winner of this year's Culinary Cup by default is Vanessa Leron.
01:24:32Yes!
01:24:34That's my girl.
01:24:35That's my girl.
01:24:36Eat it, Haley.
01:24:37Eat it.
01:24:38Loser!
01:24:39Yes!
01:24:40Woo!
01:24:41Well, I'm sorry I lied to you about who I am.
01:24:45And for being a spy.
01:24:47I'm sorry that I was such a dick.
01:24:52I'm an asshole.
01:24:55So apparently you can't be both.
01:24:58Haley, can you forgive me?
01:24:59Haley, can you forgive me?
01:25:08Haley, can you forgive me?
01:25:11Only if you forgive me first.
01:25:13Your mother spent their whole lives chasing that cup.
01:25:14Yeah.
01:25:15And they've asked themselves to win it.
01:25:16We win!
01:25:17You lose!
01:25:18How's it feel to eat my leftovers?
01:25:19Now you're not the only millionaire in town with a hot chef girlfriend.
01:25:20You got that quote.
01:25:21Oh, do I?
01:25:22I am a billionaire.
01:25:23Not a millionaire.
01:25:24Prove it.
01:25:25Okay.
01:25:26I can afford to serve another knuckle sandwich.
01:25:31In your face.
01:25:32In your face!
01:26:01Congratulations.
01:26:02You are a shitty person, but a good chef.
01:26:18I just hope we can heal.
01:26:22So, let's talk business.
01:26:25Where do you want to open mother's table?
01:26:28In case you still want to cook with me.
01:26:30Oh, I want to do a lot more.
01:26:33Me too.
01:26:47Haley, ever since we were kids, you showed me what flavor really means.
01:26:53Not just in food, but in life.
01:26:55You're not just my love.
01:26:57You are my first and my last forever soul, chef.
01:27:04Haley, brothers.
01:27:06Yes.
01:27:07Do you want to marry me?
01:27:08Yes, chef.
01:27:09I love you.
01:27:10I love you too.
01:27:23You too.
01:27:24Hey, you two.
01:27:25Get a room.
01:27:26Or a restaurant.
01:27:27Sorry.
01:27:28Sometimes we get a little carried away.
01:27:29Well, thank you all for being here today.
01:27:35This is a special occasion for my wife and I.
01:27:36I've always dreamed of owning a restaurant and I couldn't have asked for a better partner
01:27:37than Mark.
01:27:38Mother's table is an all day brunch spot that celebrates that food can be simple yet delicious.
01:27:45Now we all know that baker, chef De Laurentiis is a great chef.
01:27:46Today, besides our beautiful food, we have a special exciting news to share.
01:27:52I've got a bun in the oven.
01:27:53Woo!
01:27:54Okay, okay, everybody.
01:27:55Enough talking.
01:27:56Let's get cooking.
