00:00No hay nadie aquí. Las estrellas están abiertas.
00:04Sí, exactamente por eso que estás ahí. No es New York.
00:08Brook's Point Harbor es el perfect lugar para lay low.
00:10Tu reservas está bajo bajo.
00:13Jason, just relax. Get some sleep.
00:15Try a disfrutar mientras que puedas.
00:17Vamos a tener que volver a Corwin Brothers antes de saberlo.
00:19¿Cuántas veces tengo que decirlo?
00:21¿Estoy listo conmigo?
00:23O, es listo conmigo.
00:25O sea, mi carrera es terminada.
00:27Esto es todo va a explosar.
00:28People are going to forget about some stupid mistake
00:31the minute the next celebrity scandal breaks.
00:33That mistake was on national TV.
00:35Live, on primetime.
00:37They're not just going to forget.
00:39Yeah, and you shouldn't have been in that competition in the first place.
00:42Especially after what happened to your brother.
00:44Hi, I'm Laura.
00:59Welcome to the Brook's Point Inn.
01:01How can I help you?
01:03You didn't want an elevator.
01:05All right then, Mr. Gosling.
01:08No relation.
01:10Let's get you checked in.
01:12So are you in town for the festival?
01:14What festival?
01:15Is there always smoke billowing out of your kitchen?
01:17That's just five alarm dennings.
01:19Doing what she does best.
01:20Okay, well what she does best is going to set us all up in flames.
01:24Mister!
01:27Thank you for calling Brook's Point Inn.
01:29This is Laura speaking.
01:29What a stupid hunk of junk.
01:33Okay, that hunk of junk is actually doing its job.
01:38Are you trying to burn the place down?
01:41Um, no.
01:41Actually, I'm not.
01:43Everything's under control.
01:44I'm just doing a little bit of baking here.
01:46Whoops!
01:46There we go.
01:48And, uh...
01:49Some scones.
01:53All under control.
01:54I see why they call you five alarm dennings.
01:56Hi, I'm so sorry.
02:00I don't normally greet guests this way.
02:03I'm Abby.
02:05I run Brook's Point Inn.
02:07I didn't realize smoke inhalation was part of the complimentary service.
02:10The next show starts at five.
02:15Um, and you are?
02:16Jay.
02:16I knew if I followed the smoke, I'd find my granddaughter.
02:24Grand, are you all right?
02:25Is everything okay?
02:26I was going to ask you the same thing.
02:28Oh.
02:29Oh, hello, dear.
02:31I'm Alice.
02:32I see you've already met my granddaughter.
02:34Yeah.
02:35I'm hoping that our home will suffice for your temporary home away from home.
02:39Why won't you be staying alone?
02:41Oh, I hope you reconsider.
02:43The smoke will clear, dear.
02:45At all.
02:45If you'd like to follow me, I can get you settled in into one of our non-smoking rooms.
02:52How are you?
02:53Okay.
02:54Come.
02:56You good?
02:57Yeah.
03:01Well, Grant, I don't know if it's such a good idea that I take over for Matilda as chef.
03:06I think that you can do anything you set your mind to.
03:08What are your thoughts on hiring an extra set of hands, just one person to help Brad out?
03:19Because I know he's run off his feet.
03:20He's so busy.
03:21He doesn't have time to fix everything.
03:24Grant, is everything okay?
03:26Oh, yes.
03:29Well.
03:30Grant, what is it?
03:31Do you need an ambulance?
03:34It ends out of money.
03:36I've used my personal savings to balance the books for over a year.
03:41And I've neglected paying the property taxes for a few years.
03:47I wanted to tell you.
03:49But I really thought I had everything under control.
03:52It's okay.
03:53I'm sure it's not that bad.
03:55Oh, it's worse.
03:56This is my home.
03:58And I can't even imagine living anywhere else.
04:01Oh, Abby, I'm so sorry.
04:04And it's okay.
04:04I know.
04:05I know this is your home.
04:06I...
04:07Let me take a look at the books.
04:09I'm sure I can shuffle some numbers around.
04:12$43,000 is an awful lot of shuffling.
04:14Leave it with me.
04:15I'll think of something.
04:16I promise.
04:18Okay?
04:19You have one saved voice message.
04:30Hey.
04:31Just about to board.
04:33Wanted you to know the meeting went great.
04:34They loved our ideas.
04:36Man, there's the craziest sunset at the airport.
04:38Makes me excited for tomorrow.
04:40I'll call you when we land.
04:43Oh, great.
04:46Nice to see you, too.
04:47Sorry, I was just hoping to do some thinking on my love seat for a bit.
04:51Your love seat?
04:52Didn't see your name on it.
04:53No, not my name, but my parents.
04:56They used to hang out here quite a bit.
04:57This was kind of their spot.
05:01Anyway, I don't want to interrupt your cell phone time, so...
05:04Plenty of room for two.
05:12I'm sorry about your parents.
05:14Oh, it happened a long time ago.
05:17I wear their wedding ring, so I feel closer to them.
05:21I always feel so calm here.
05:24I bet your lungs do.
05:26Five a lot.
05:28I guess I'll never live that one down.
05:32Listen, about earlier, I'm...
05:33I'm sorry for the way things were handled.
05:35I know you were just trying to help.
05:36I shouldn't have been so rude.
05:38I was just on edge.
05:40It was a long trip.
05:41Thanks.
05:43So, where did you travel from?
05:45New York.
05:46Okay.
05:47And what brings you here?
05:48Free will.
05:49Just somebody else's.
05:51Okay.
05:52Before you leave, though, you have to do yourself a favor.
05:55Try our diner's BLT.
05:57It's so, so good.
05:59It's to die for.
06:01Diner and dine.
06:02I can see how they go together.
06:05Oh, come on.
06:05You live in New York.
06:06You're telling me you don't like diners?
06:08New York is some of the finest restaurants in the world.
06:11Why would I eat at a diner?
06:12I've never eaten at a diner.
06:15Never will.
06:16You have never...
06:17Okay, you have to go to a diner.
06:19You have to go to ours and try the BLT.
06:21It's the best.
06:23No, I don't.
06:24And how do you know it's the best BLT?
06:26I mean, how many diner BLTs have you tried?
06:29Okay, easy, Mr. Corwin.
06:32Corwin.
06:34Gosling didn't last long.
06:36I guess my days of being undercover are over.
06:39You should tilt your nose down once in a while.
06:43Otherwise, you'll miss what's going on around you.
06:46Or where you're at.
06:48Okay, that's not fair.
06:49Whatever you've read about me, you have no clue.
06:54I'm not assuming anything.
06:55You've made quite an impression here on your own already.
07:02I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to offend you.
07:05Well, you did.
07:05Brooks Point Harbor means a lot to the people of this town.
07:11You don't get to come here and hide out from whatever terrible things you've done
07:14and then judge anything you're not willing to experience yourself.
07:20Anyway, I have somewhere I have to be.
07:21Take a little Biretti in about five.
07:39Coffee?
07:39Uh, no thanks.
07:40I'm running on natural jitters today.
07:42Camera, that's ten pounds.
07:47Even to a mayor.
07:48Too bad they didn't come off after the picture.
07:52Heard you run into a bit of trouble at the inn.
07:54Matilda's replaced on bailing on you?
07:56That can't be good for business.
07:57It's all under control, Mayor Joan.
08:01Order's up, Abby.
08:03Hey, Joan, have you seen this?
08:05Christmas Chef Showdown?
08:07Grand prize of $50,000?
08:09Nothing to sniff at, huh?
08:11They want a mystery competitor.
08:13A local amateur cook to compete against their big name chefs.
08:16Amateur?
08:17As in no talent required?
08:18It is a televised event.
08:20I could do this.
08:24I have alarm dennings in a cooking contest.
08:28What, scorched sardines again?
08:30That fish was flambéed.
08:32I don't think so.
08:33But if you did participate, having one of our oldest businesses would be great in my advertising.
08:39Yes, it would be amazing advertising for the inn, plus $50,000.
08:44You have to win to get that.
08:53Thank you.
08:53You know what?
08:57I'll take two strawberry milkshakes to go, please.
09:00Thanks.
09:04Do you have to keep playing with that thing?
09:06I don't have to, but if I don't fix it, this whole place will burn down.
09:09I'll try to be faster.
09:10Thank you.
09:12Strawberry milkshakes?
09:15Uh-oh, what's going on?
09:16Oh, you know, it's Christmas.
09:18You two have been doing amazing work lately.
09:21And?
09:21And I'm hoping you're willing to do a little extra hard work this coming week.
09:25So we're not hiring more help?
09:27What does extra mean?
09:29Just a couple of hours a day.
09:31I'm planning on entering the cooking competition in the festival.
09:35What?
09:36More charred cheesecake?
09:37Very funny.
09:39So take a look at this.
09:40They are looking for a local contestant.
09:42If I'm selected, there will be two other competitors, which means I have actually really good odds
09:46at winning this thing.
09:47You know the other two competitors are actual chefs, right?
09:50Professionals.
09:51I know that, but they specify that they want local talent, which means they probably just
09:55want some charm and fun, which I will bring.
09:58How exactly are you going to learn to cook in a week?
10:01Online tutorials, Matilda's cookbooks, I have a kitchen at my disposal.
10:07Okay, I know I'm not the best chef in the world.
10:09I get a little distracted, but if I have something to focus on, I'll be able to move mountains.
10:16Okay, you know I'm all about self-improvement and you becoming less of a fire hazard.
10:20But why on earth do you want to do this?
10:26We need this $50,000.
10:28The inn's in a little bit of trouble.
10:30I was speaking with my grandma, who's been trying to balance the books, but it's bad.
10:35It's really bad, but if I win this prize money, this will at least bring us out of the red.
10:42The inn actually clothes?
10:44Not if I win this competition.
10:46I guess I could help Laura out with the guest services.
10:49Seems easy enough.
10:50I can help Brad with repairs.
10:52Have you ever held a hammer in your life?
10:54A hammer?
10:54What's a hammer?
10:56What's a girl to do?
10:57I know, I know this is a really big ask, but I can't do this without you.
11:05Okay, first step.
11:07Name.
11:08Abby Dennings.
11:10Easy.
11:11That's a lot of fine print.
11:13Are you a professional chef?
11:15I'm gonna go ahead and click the no box on that one.
11:18What's next?
11:20Application not processed until full payment of entrance fee received.
11:25$500?
11:28What?
11:28Who has $500 lying around?
11:31We could have a bake sale, sell 500 burned scones.
11:34No, the application deadline is tonight at midnight.
11:36I don't have time to burn that many scones.
11:40Abby, no.
11:41You better get to cooking.
11:42I need you to teach me how to cook.
11:59I need you to teach me how to cook.
12:01I'm not a chef anymore.
12:02Whatever, you still know how to cook.
12:04And apparently I'm also a snob.
12:06I know I'm being a little pushy right now, and I'm sorry for the way I spoke to you earlier.
12:10You actually?
12:10Look, I'm not asking you to be my friend.
12:13I know I really irritate you.
12:15But what I am asking for is a teacher.
12:18I'm really hoping to enter a cooking competition in the By the Bay Christmas food festival next week.
12:23Food festival?
12:25Gary.
12:26Oh, come on.
12:28You're already bored out of your mind.
12:29You've been here for less than a day.
12:31You've got to find something to do.
12:33It's not going to be you cooking.
12:35It's going to be me.
12:35And it's not like I need to cook for the president.
12:37I just need to learn how to not set things on fire and not poison anybody.
12:40Yeah, sorry.
12:41It's a steep learning curve.
12:44Gary.
12:45Yeah, it's your favorite client here.
12:46Just wondering why his overpaid lawyer dropped him off in the one place that's hosting a Christmas food festival.
12:51Call me back.
12:52So, that's it?
12:54Look, it's within your best interest not to be associated with me right now.
12:58Is it true?
12:59Did you cheat on that cooking competition?
13:04It's not a tough question.
13:05No one's actually ever asked me that before.
13:07My brother's memory was on the line.
13:09I barely even remember making the decision.
13:11Do you regret it?
13:12Every day.
13:13People make mistakes all the time.
13:15Celebrities are not.
13:17Scandals like mine kill careers.
13:19I've completely undone everything that David worked so hard for.
13:22You can't bring your brother back, but you can do everything in your power to continue his legacy.
13:28I've been ousted by my own company.
13:31I'm completely toxic within the industry.
13:34Nobody wants me.
13:35I want you.
13:39If I agree to this, you've got to know it's going to be long hours.
13:43Yes, yes, I'll do anything.
13:44It'll be demanding and stressful, and you're probably going to hate me even more by the end of this.
13:49Yes, yes.
13:52Thank you.
13:57This is going to be a lot of hard work, okay?
14:00Yes, chef.
14:02And we also need to find another kitchen.
14:04Away from the inn.
14:05You are far too distracted.
14:06I know just the place.
14:07Cheryl's behind the cafe across the street.
14:10Okay, we start first thing in the morning.
14:117 a.m. sharp.
14:12Do not be late.
14:14I will not be late.
14:25You're late.
14:27No, I'm two minutes early.
14:28You're not even dressed for work.
14:30Go and change into something less flirty.
14:33I'm wearing a blouse.
14:35I have to look half decent to run the inn.
14:36It's not suitable for a kitchen.
14:38Go and change into something else.
14:40And tie your hair up.
14:43Hurry!
14:44Or you're really going to be late by the time you get back.
14:45Hey, chef.
14:55So, do I pass the inspection now?
14:57Excellent.
14:59Okay.
15:00First thing, sis, what have you got to prep for the competition?
15:03There are three different challenges.
15:04The appetizer, the main course with a side dish, and a dessert.
15:07Okay, number one is going to be knife skills.
15:10This is a chef's knife.
15:14Ooh, I like this one.
15:15Put that down.
15:17Safety.
15:18Always safety.
15:20Got it.
15:23Hold the knife handle in the palm of your hands.
15:26You want to keep your thumb pressed against the blade.
15:29You want to try and keep the knife on the chopping board.
15:32Smooth motions.
15:35Okay?
15:35Okay.
15:38Chef, do you ever think I'll be able to chop air like you do?
15:41No.
15:44Slow and easy.
15:46No rushing.
15:48You want the curved side down.
15:50This hand, you're going to want back here in the cellar.
15:53Away from the blade.
15:55And then just slow, easy movements.
16:01Smaller, more uniform pieces.
16:03Right, right.
16:03So it looks nice.
16:05Chef, does celery bleed?
16:07No, celery does not bleed.
16:12Number two, no shortcuts.
16:14These distractions, they can get you really hurt.
16:18But cuts do happen.
16:20So number three, get used to blood.
16:23I'm going to get the first day of kit.
16:26Okay, chef, I think we might have another problem.
16:28For now.
16:29For now.
16:30Whoa.
16:35It doesn't look deep.
16:36No, it's not that deep.
16:37No, I need stitches.
16:39Take care of that finger.
16:41You're going to need it in the future.
16:43You're the best.
16:44Thank you, Cheryl.
16:45If you're not going to listen to me, there is no point in me teaching you.
16:50I am going to listen, I promise.
16:53Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa.
16:54No, lesson is done for today.
16:56We were just getting started.
16:57Your head is not in the game.
16:59And I need to reevaluate my plan.
17:01Study this tonight.
17:03The pitches will help you with your technique.
17:05Do you have one with dummies in the title?
17:07Dummies?
17:08Really?
17:08I wouldn't have agreed to help you if I thought that.
17:10Oh, now you got me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.
17:14Or maybe I'm still feeling lightheaded.
17:16There is a test in the morning.
17:19Okay, well, fingers crossed.
17:22Finger crossed that I don't amputate something tomorrow.
17:25That's not funny.
17:26Rule number four, no laughing in the kitchen.
17:29Preparing food for people is not a joke.
17:32It's an honor.
17:33Hey, why did you become a chef anyway?
17:35Be more occupied with yourself, Abby.
17:37If you want a chance at winning this competition,
17:39you need to find your purpose.
17:42Where's your focus at?
17:44Why do you need to win?
17:53Ah, not my friends' euchre.
17:57Ladies, enough with the table talk, please.
18:00Alice is my oldest friend.
18:01We don't table talk.
18:02We read each other's minds.
18:04Well, that's still cheating.
18:05I do.
18:07Jason.
18:11I was just going to get some fresh air
18:13when I had the snapper cards at the table.
18:15You have good hearing.
18:16Well, they hear professionals.
18:18People who do anything to win.
18:20Yes.
18:21Fueled by tea and cookies.
18:22You have me at tea.
18:24Really?
18:24You're a tea connoisseur like the rest of us?
18:27Caffeine anything.
18:27I respect that.
18:29You were right.
18:30I need to focus on what's important.
18:33This?
18:35This right here is why I need to win this competition.
18:38The inn isn't just my home.
18:39It's a cornerstone in our community.
18:41And winning that prize money is going to keep it that way.
18:44Remember that for tomorrow's lesson.
18:46Jason, join us for a round.
18:51You should take my place.
18:52I have to make more tea.
18:53Can she make tea, Alice?
18:55Is that safe?
18:56Hi.
18:59Have you played much of her?
19:02Not much.
19:06Okay.
19:06Knuckles tucked from in.
19:25My grandkids are not going to believe I played cards with Jason Corwin.
19:31Would you be a dear and sign your cookbook for my granddaughter?
19:34Alice mentioned you were staying here.
19:39Perhaps now is not the best time.
19:49Thank you, dear.
19:52Well, it's been an absolute pleasure to meet you all.
19:56Thank you very much for the game.
20:04It's okay to let yourself grieve.
20:08It's better to feel the emotion than to try to sweep it away.
20:12Once you've felt the loss, you can begin to heal.
20:18Thank you, Alice.
20:20I just wish I knew how.
20:23Lean on your friends.
20:25You have more support than you know.
20:27So, is he better than me?
20:52Good.
20:53Very good.
20:54Smaller slices.
20:57Remember, uniform slices.
20:59Right.
21:00Right.
21:02So, why did you sneak away so early last night?
21:05Okay, the kitchen needs discipline and restraint.
21:08Not gossip.
21:09It's not gossip.
21:10I just, I saw you having fun last night.
21:12It was nice to see you let your hair down a little bit.
21:14Okay, just focus on the work.
21:17I'm trying to focus.
21:18Would you lighten up?
21:19I feel like I'm walking on eggshells here.
21:22Sorry, but this isn't the place to get personal.
21:24I'm just saying we don't have to spend the day chopping in brooding silence.
21:28You know, you can have some conversation with somebody who's trying to be your friend.
21:32You said you wanted a teacher, not a friend.
21:36Whoa.
21:37You played cards with my grandma last night.
21:38I'm sorry, we're friends now.
21:40Jason, you're helping me.
21:43Maybe I can help you a little bit.
21:44Abby, enough.
21:48Okay, now we are literally both walking on eggshells.
21:51Jason, why are you so hurt on yourself?
21:53Let's just clean up and move on.
21:59What are you doing?
22:00You are wound way too tight.
22:02You need to let loose a little bit.
22:04Stop it.
22:04Not until you drop one.
22:06On purpose.
22:07Abby, that is not going to happen.
22:08You can't just shut down all the time.
22:09It's okay to laugh a little bit when life gets messy.
22:12I'm not going to laugh.
22:13I'm ticked off.
22:14Well, that's a lot of anger over some broken eggs.
22:16You are the most...
22:17It's okay to be angry for a while.
22:19Grief is a process, but you can't just...
22:21Save it, all right?
22:22I know all about grief.
22:24Why do you think I'm here when everything that ever meant anything to me is in New York?
22:28Yesterday you asked me why I became a chef.
22:30It was David's dream.
22:32We did everything together.
22:33Same school, same job.
22:35I didn't want to do anything else because I knew whatever we did together, we'd be greater.
22:41I didn't just lose David.
22:42I lost half of myself.
22:46Well, if that's true, then you still have half of yourself left.
22:49We can't choose what happens in our lives, but we can choose what happens moving forward.
22:54Maybe it's time that you find a new path.
22:56I don't know who I am without him.
23:00You're Jason Corwin, and that's enough.
23:03You don't need to figure out everything today, but you can start by being yourself.
23:08An imperfect human being like the rest of us.
23:11So, stew on that.
23:13Okay, how did that feel?
23:18Better than anger.
23:19Yes.
23:21All right, what's next?
23:22I suppose scrambled eggs.
23:26Oh.
23:27Sounds egg-cellent.
23:28That's a terrible pun.
23:29But I appreciate the egg-foot.
23:44Tina, what are you doing in Brooks Point Harbor?
23:46Jason?
23:48Hey, you're the last person I thought I'd see here.
23:51Oh, a little higher on the left.
23:54What?
23:55I work for TNCN now.
23:57They're the festival sponsor.
23:58Roger sent me down to do setup and to ensure the town was acceptable for his stay.
24:02Well, that's generous.
24:03I call it difficult.
24:04Or belligerent.
24:05Well, off the record, he's even worse after his promotion.
24:09He's so busy with the Corwin brothers, too.
24:12Yeah.
24:12Or Roger.
24:14Right, well, I got a lot of Roger's details to take care of.
24:17It was nice seeing you.
24:29How's my favorite client?
24:31Did you set me up?
24:32Putting me in the same town as Roger?
24:33Jason, look, I knew about the festival, but I didn't know that he was running it.
24:38Although, this could be a good opportunity for you.
24:41Do you hear what you just said?
24:43He's no longer my rival.
24:44He's just moved straight on into enemy.
24:46I'm getting the first flight out of here.
24:52I'm not going to sell to some big chain.
24:55Besides, I'm not going to have to sell at all.
24:57Abby's going to win the money and pay off our debts.
24:59Abby can barely boil water.
25:01She only has a chance of getting chosen
25:02because she's a pretty local with a historical cause.
25:05Plus, she'll be against top chefs.
25:07I believe in her.
25:08You need to think about what's best for the future.
25:10If I get you a substantial offer,
25:12you can live comfortably the rest of your life.
25:14You're possible.
25:15So are you.
25:16Abby, Mary Joan, I hope to get that water boiling technique on lockdown.
25:23I'm sure you will.
25:27Gran, I'm sorry you had to listen to that nonsense.
25:30I'm afraid she has a point.
25:31The bank is not going to wait forever before they foreclose.
25:35No, no, no, Gran.
25:36Gran, please don't sell just yet.
25:38The ads at the festival are going to bring in more guests.
25:41Plus, my practicing has been going really well.
25:43Look at these cookies.
25:44They're not burnt.
25:44Not even one of them.
25:45I believe you can win.
25:47But the fact is,
25:48if you don't,
25:50I'll have no other choice but to sell.
25:52Come in.
26:12Abby, I, um,
26:14is everything okay?
26:16Oh, yeah.
26:17Yeah, no, I'm just practicing at the school hours, Jeff.
26:21Cutting onions.
26:23Burning onions more likely.
26:25The pan is way too hot.
26:27Might as well just throw it out and start again.
26:28Right, I forgot.
26:30Medium-low heat for caramelization, right?
26:32Right.
26:33Hey, do you want a glass?
26:34I may not know the difference between my kale and my collards,
26:37but I take my wine very seriously.
26:43Cheers.
26:46Come on in.
26:47See, you have all the big names out tonight.
26:56It's good that you're doing the research.
27:00Abby, you're not cutting onions anymore.
27:02What's up?
27:06I told you finances were tight.
27:08If I don't win this competition,
27:09my grandma's going to have to sell the inn
27:10to one of those big chain motels in town.
27:14It's a lot of pressure to put in yourself.
27:16And that's just the half of it.
27:19You know, if she has to sell, I'll lose my job.
27:22My grandma's in the early stages of Parkinson's,
27:24and this is her last connection to my parents and my grandpa, too.
27:28So it's just really important for her mental health
27:32that she stay in the inn.
27:38Why do you keep doing that?
27:41Where's your necklace?
27:44I use the rings to raise the entrance fee for the competition,
27:47so if I lose, the rings are gone, too.
27:50How about that?
27:53Dinner and a show.
27:55It would be great for distraction management.
27:57The key is to breathe, quiet the mind.
27:59The competition is going to be chaotic and noisy,
28:02so you might as well get used to it.
28:05Should I get some wooden spoons and pots and pans
28:07for your enjoyment?
28:09Hands off, I swear.
28:20Okay, not bad.
28:26I'm sorry.
28:27It definitely could have used a lot more cheese.
28:29No apologies, no excuses.
28:31Whatever you put in front of someone is your masterpiece.
28:34Be proud of it.
28:36Okay, chef, honest opinion.
28:38What did you think of this masterpiece?
28:41The pasta could have used two more minutes,
28:43but other than that, it was pretty good.
28:47I have a question for you about your competition.
28:50How did you get disqualified?
28:53My popovers didn't rise two minutes
28:56before the buzzer went off,
28:57and my sous-chef offered his rosemary potatoes.
29:00Marcus later denied that he offered them to me
29:03and that he played any part in it.
29:05I was publicly shamed, and he got his own TV show.
29:08That doesn't seem right.
29:10I shouldn't have been in the competition anyway.
29:11I was not in a good place after my brother died,
29:14but Roger persuaded me to do it,
29:16to honor David's memory.
29:17Well, I never had the pleasure of knowing David,
29:22but I think Jason Corwin's pretty great.
29:27Well, I should get going.
29:307 a.m. show.
29:32Crash course on main courses.
29:33You need to make sure you save the inn.
29:38Keep tomorrow night open for a field trip.
29:41I think you and I could use some fresh air
29:43after all this smoke inhalation that's been going on.
29:46Good.
29:46Field trip it is.
29:48Great.
29:48I'll pick you up at 8.
29:58I'm gonna regret this.
30:02It's beautiful.
30:06It's my favorite place to see the town at night.
30:09So calm and quiet.
30:12I've not seen anything like it in the city.
30:15There's so many stars.
30:16It's a hidden gem.
30:21This is magical.
30:23Thank you.
30:24Let's pretend me and you
30:28The Christmas was made for two
30:34Wow, this is beautiful.
30:52I would have killed to have produce like this as a chef.
30:54Carrots.
30:55I just want carrots.
30:56Looks like the TNCA crew has arrived.
31:11I'm gonna let you watch your fingers.
31:14Enjoy.
31:15I've actually got some errands to run.
31:18Okay.
31:19Will I catch you later?
31:19Yeah, sure.
31:20I need you out there.
31:32The room's already to go,
31:33but I'm not sure they're checking in.
31:35What?
31:38Whatever the guests want, they get.
31:40We have to make sure everybody's happy.
31:42Matilda's RV broke down.
31:43She won't be back for a few days.
31:45Okay, we'll need to organize the meal vouchers
31:46for everybody to hope she gets back.
31:47Hmm, meal vouchers for that diner?
31:51Is this some kind of joke?
31:52Merry Christmas.
31:53My name's Abby Dennings.
31:55I'm the manager here at Brooks Poiton.
31:56You are the mystery cook on our Christmas chef showdown.
31:59What?
32:01Did I get selected?
32:02You haven't heard?
32:03No.
32:04Somebody from my team was supposed to contact Joan,
32:06and then Joan was supposed to contact you,
32:08and so Mary must have fallen through the cracks,
32:10but congratulations, you have been selected.
32:13Thank you.
32:14Thank you so much.
32:15I'm Martha Evans,
32:15VP of Communications and Executive Producer
32:18at the National Cooking Network.
32:20Well, it's so lovely to meet you, Mr. Evans.
32:22We're so excited to have you here.
32:23I'm sure you are.
32:24Now, I only agree to these accommodations
32:27because I was told they include breakfast and dinner
32:30here at the inn.
32:32Now, I'm having a very important line
32:35to wine and dine with tonight,
32:37and if that kitchen is not running,
32:38I'll be more than happy to find somewhere else to stay.
32:40I'm taking the entire crew with me.
32:43You know what?
32:43That won't be necessary.
32:45Our chef has just had a slight delay outside of town,
32:47but she'll be...
32:47And Abby has hired an even better chef.
32:49Laura?
32:49Excellent.
32:50Problem solved.
32:52Mr. Evans, wait.
32:53I've been waiting for too long, Ms. Dunnings.
32:55Now, are you able to provide dinner or not?
32:58Yes.
32:58We'll have dinner ready for you at 7 o'clock tonight.
33:00Well, then, it looks as if I'm checking in after all.
33:04Wonderful.
33:07Is there anyone to pick up my luggage?
33:09Oh, absolutely.
33:14Laura, why did you say that?
33:15I panicked.
33:16We couldn't let him leave.
33:17All right, stay here and check in the rest of our guests,
33:19and I have to go prep dinner service.
33:21Do you want me to call Jason?
33:22Nope.
33:23No, I got this.
33:28Welcome to the Brooks Point Inn.
33:30Abby, what's going on?
33:39Sorry, but I tried.
33:41Abby, no buts.
33:42It's like everything I told you over the last week
33:44has just disappeared into thin air.
33:46Jason, that's not true.
33:47I'm just trying...
33:47Jason...
33:48Jason, put me down.
33:49I have to cook dinner.
33:50Take your breath.
33:52What's going on?
33:53Matilda isn't back.
33:55But Roger Evans is here,
33:56and he's here with his entire crew,
33:57and he's threatening to leave
33:58if I don't have dinner ready for them tonight.
33:59Take a breath.
34:02The festival's a few days away,
34:03and I thought I had this whole cooking thing in the bag,
34:05but then I got here and I panicked.
34:07And there's no way I'm going to win that festival,
34:09and my grandma's going to have to sell this inn,
34:11and it's...
34:11I needed to breathe.
34:18Why didn't you just call me?
34:23Because you don't work here.
34:25And honestly, I didn't know if you'd come.
34:27After everything we've been through this week,
34:29you think I'd abandon you now?
34:31Abby, you're the only reason I'm still here.
34:33Jason, I wanted your help, but I...
34:35Take this.
34:40Every chef needs one.
34:41It's amazing.
34:52No.
34:57Jason, I don't know what to say.
34:58Well, that is a first.
34:59How long do you cook chicken supreme?
35:05Until it's done.
35:07There she is.
35:22That's a good one.
35:23What are your thoughts on this one?
35:27The plates are empty.
35:29They practically looked clean.
35:32Oh, what a rush.
35:35Nothing like it.
35:36Jason, I can't thank you enough.
35:39You held your own in there.
35:40You should be proud of yourself.
35:41Wow, this is a little weird.
35:43I kind of miss you yelling at me.
35:45I never yelled at you.
35:46Okay, but you wanted to, though.
35:48Wanting to is very different.
35:50You've done wonders for my patients.
35:52You were right.
35:52I didn't think I was ready
35:54to step back into dinner service.
35:56But I actually had a lot of fun.
35:58If it wasn't for you,
35:59I never would have found my way
36:00back to the kitchen.
36:11I can fill in for Matilda
36:12until she comes back.
36:14That way we can carry on doing this
36:16and you can keep on training.
36:17Really?
36:20No.
36:20No, I'm so grateful
36:22for everything you've done,
36:23but I can't afford
36:25to hire a Michelin star chef.
36:35There.
36:36Now you've paid me.
36:37Really?
36:38Well, it's worth every penny.
36:43Pardon me.
36:45Didn't mean to interrupt.
36:47Hello, Roger.
36:48Jason?
36:51You working here?
36:52What a surprise.
36:53No, Jason doesn't work here.
36:55Everyone's wondering where you've been.
36:59And here you are.
37:02Well, thank you both
37:02for a delightful dinner.
37:04Eddie, I'll have Chanel
37:05drop off your signed contract
37:06at the front desk.
37:07Although I'm not entirely certain
37:09I'll be proceeding
37:09with the competition.
37:11What?
37:14I need this.
37:15Sivarn Sol has pneumonia,
37:16which leaves me
37:17with Clara Tasker and you.
37:18Now, I need a professional
37:20second chef
37:21for my audience.
37:23I need...
37:24Wow.
37:25You're a local caller.
37:27And I know you hate
37:27every single project I do,
37:28but you are back
37:29in the kitchen, aren't you?
37:30Oh, Jason would love
37:31to step in.
37:33Done.
37:34Tomorrow.
37:36Two o'clock.
37:38Okay.
37:38I know I shouldn't have jumped in,
37:39but this will give you
37:40a chance to clear your name.
37:42Abby, I don't want
37:42to compete against you.
37:43Jason, you are at your happiest
37:45when you are cooking
37:45in a kitchen.
37:46You belong on that stage.
37:50Do this for you.
37:58That's right.
38:01Okay, and turn right.
38:02Okay.
38:04Go in.
38:05You're almost there?
38:06Nearly.
38:07Okay, and sit to your left.
38:10No peeking.
38:11I'm not.
38:16And open your eyes.
38:23So, what can I get
38:24for you guys today?
38:25Two BLTs on rye, please, Gail.
38:27Sure.
38:29What?
38:30The Jason Corwin in a diner?
38:33Well, I hear the BLTs
38:34are to die for.
38:36I also hear Gail
38:37got some of your
38:38famous Christmas pudding.
38:40Easy.
38:40You're not getting
38:41that recipe.
38:42It's a family secret.
38:46All right, so we've got
38:47two BLTs on rye
38:49and two strawberry shakes
38:50on the house.
38:51Ah!
38:52And the famous pudding.
38:56Ah!
38:56Mm.
39:01Unbelievable.
39:02Ah!
39:04Abby, you need to get
39:06to the hospital.
39:07Alice had a spell.
39:08Grant, what happened?
39:15I tripped on the
39:16area rug in my room,
39:17and I knocked my head
39:18on the table by the door.
39:20Were you feeling dizzy again?
39:22No, Abby, I just tripped.
39:24It's nothing to fuss about.
39:25We don't know that.
39:26Grant, I need you
39:27to be okay.
39:28And I am okay, Abby,
39:30really.
39:32But there is one thing
39:33I would like to get
39:34off my chest.
39:36I've been diagnosed
39:37with Parkinson's.
39:39My symptoms aren't
39:40severe at the moment,
39:41but I haven't felt
39:42comfortable leaving
39:44the inn for a few weeks.
39:46I didn't tell you
39:48because I didn't want
39:49you treating me
39:49any differently.
39:51And Oscar,
39:53I'm still going to
39:54beat you with you,
39:55Kurt.
39:56Badly.
39:57I know you will, Alice.
39:59I know you will.
40:01We'll face whatever's
40:02coming together
40:03as we always have.
40:05Mm-hmm.
40:05Absolutely.
40:11You should sit in the kitchen.
40:14He's so confident.
40:15He knows exactly what he's doing.
40:16He's just,
40:16he's so passionate.
40:19Abby,
40:20you like him.
40:21Well, he's just,
40:22he'll have to go back
40:23to his life eventually.
40:24Last week,
40:28you wanted me to stay.
40:29Now you want me to come home.
40:30What's changed?
40:31Roger's frozen line
40:32is hurting the brand.
40:34The board wants you
40:34back on as chairman.
40:36Why do I want to go back
40:37to everything
40:37that made me so miserable?
40:39Roger is hawking
40:40discounted frozen foods
40:41made with the cheapest
40:42ingredients he can find
40:43from who knows what sources
40:44under your name.
40:46That can't sit right
40:47with you, Jason.
40:48Of course it doesn't.
40:49Well, then you need
40:50to head up your own company.
40:51Email me their proposal.
40:57I bumped into Roger.
40:58Long story short,
40:59I'm in the TNCN competition.
41:01What?
41:02Arneson pulled out.
41:03They needed a replacement.
41:04I'm here.
41:04It was last minute.
41:06Just be careful.
41:08I know.
41:12Abby Dennings.
41:13Table for one?
41:14Well, look who it is.
41:16What are you doing
41:17by yourself?
41:18The two lovebirds
41:19are over there
41:20by the pie table.
41:21Laura and Brad?
41:25Nice.
41:26How about a date
41:28to the crepe table
41:28with a scandal-ridden,
41:30moody ex-chef?
41:31I'm okay with scandal-ridden
41:33and moody,
41:34but what kind of crepes
41:35are we talking about?
41:36Lady's choice.

41:39That's your choice.

41:43Well, that's why.
41:45You can have fresh berries,
41:46cured ham, jams,
41:48and you choose whipped cream.
41:49You have the palate
41:50of a six-year-old.
41:52Six-year-olds know what's up.
41:55That way.
41:55There are so many people here right now.

47:14Chef Horwin,
47:15I'm sorry.
47:16Your family Christmas

47:19Thank you for having me
47:20in your kitchen,
47:20Chef Aiken.
47:21An executive chef
47:23versus an aspiring cook.
47:25You will win
47:26if anyone gets.
47:29Cuts.
47:29Let's take a break.
47:30Thank you very much.
47:34In front of the
47:35gingerbread cookies,
47:36they're so mad.
47:38Wave to my grandkids.
47:41Abby,
47:42great work out there.
47:44Thanks.
47:45Jason was instrumental
47:46in helping me prepare
47:46for the competition.
47:47I bet.
47:48He's a master
47:48of flavor and texture.
47:49I miss working with him.
47:51You should speak with him.
47:53I know.
47:56Marcus,
47:57would you excuse us?
47:59Nice chatting with you.
48:02You're doing wonderfully
48:03in this competition,
48:05actually far beyond
48:05my expectations.
48:07Thank you.
48:08There is one little detail
48:10that's kind of bothering me,
48:11though.
48:12When you signed the contract,
48:13you stated that you never
48:14hired anyone from TNCN,
48:16and yet that's not
48:17entirely true, right?
48:19Yes, it is.
48:20You paid Jason
48:21to cook for your guests.
48:23I saw it with my own eyes.
48:25Are you talking about
48:26that pocket change thing?
48:27Because that was
48:28a total joke.
48:29And besides,
48:29Jason doesn't work
48:30for TNCN anymore.
48:31You canceled his show.
48:32On air or not,
48:33he's still under contract.
48:36Which,
48:37for you, my dear,
48:38constitutes
48:39a violation of contract.
48:40Roger,
48:41I have to compete
48:42in this competition.
48:43Oh, no, no.
48:44I'm not kicking him
48:45out of the competition.
48:46However,
48:47I need Clara to win.
48:50So let me get this straight.
48:51You want me to lose
48:52on purpose?
48:53Or what,
48:54you'll expose me
48:55on national TV
48:56due to some clerical error?
48:57Do you really think
48:58that Jason can withstand
48:59another scandal?
49:02Because that is exactly
49:03what's going to happen
49:04if his involvement
49:05comes to light.
49:07Jason had nothing
49:09to do with this.
49:10I was the one
49:11who signed that contract.
49:12It doesn't matter.
49:13I will make the public
49:14believe what I want them
49:15to believe
49:15in perceptions
49:16of wrongdoing
49:17and would only ensure
49:18that Jason never
49:19sets foot
49:19in a professional kitchen
49:21again.
49:22This is disgusting.
49:23This is business, Abby.
49:25I am looking forward
49:26to seeing your dessert
49:27this time.
49:31Welcome back.
49:32It's time for
49:33our final challenge.
49:34The sweetest part
49:35of any meal.
49:36Dessert.
49:37Contestants,
49:3860 minutes
49:39starting now.
49:53Mm, smells like Christmas
50:07on this stage.
50:09And the winner

53:54So does this mean Santa likes to cook?
54:02Of course
54:02How else would he get Mrs. Pauls to say yes?
54:05This book has inspired many great cooks
54:08Many great cooks is right
