00:11:49i made a new dish
00:11:51please take it to your boss
00:11:53but you have to pay me before he eats it
00:11:56madam
00:11:57the boss is busy with the culinary guru competition
00:12:00He definitely won't be able to eat what you've made.
00:12:02You're still looking for the culinary guru?
00:12:05Boss is tough to heal.
00:12:07Only the culinary guru can help.
00:12:09We're using the lost ancient recipe as the prize for the cook-off to lure him in.
00:12:14The lost ancient recipe?
00:12:15That's a great prize.
00:12:17My mentor will be so happy if I win it.
00:12:20You have a mentor?
00:12:24You have a mentor?
00:12:26Don't worry, Alex.
00:12:27I will cure you and win the cooking competition.
00:12:30You want to participate in the cooking competition?
00:12:33All the top chefs from the nation will be there.
00:12:36You should just forget about it.
00:12:38You'll be crushed.
00:12:39Just let me try.
00:12:40I can do it.
00:12:45Fine.
00:12:46Just don't be too upset if you lose.
00:12:49I'll give her a consolation prize privately if necessary.
00:12:52Great.
00:12:53I will show you what I can do.
00:12:57Did you hear?
00:12:58The head apprentice of the culinary guru is coming to judge today.
00:13:02Yeah.
00:13:03I just came to catch a glimpse of the legendary head apprentice.
00:13:06I heard Alex is bringing his new wife.
00:13:09I wonder what kind of woman the picky CEO ended up with.
00:13:14Alex's wife?
00:13:16That girl is just an ugly and unrefined country bumpkin.
00:13:20I can't believe Alex ended up with some broke and ugly chick.
00:13:25Look!
00:13:45I can't believe Ira is so full of herself now.
00:13:48Should I not have called off the engagement before?
00:13:51Don't be fooled by their current glamour.
00:13:55I've heard Alex's condition is worsening.
00:13:58Otherwise, he wouldn't be playing matchmaker for the culinary guru.
00:14:02Alex owns a food empire.
00:14:04If they could find culinary guru and cure him,
00:14:07it would only benefit that hick Ira.
00:14:10No way.
00:14:11I have to win Alex back.
00:14:14What's in those jars?
00:14:17Those are called spices.
00:14:20They're key to making gourmet dishes.
00:14:25You know nothing, country bumpkin.
00:14:28Oh, those are just flashy things.
00:14:30The most important part of real cuisine is to cook with the heart.
00:14:34It's how you bring out the ingredients as natural flavors.
00:14:37Despite her usual unreliable demeanor,
00:14:40she actually has her own insights about food.
00:14:43You clueless hick.
00:14:45Don't pretend to know anything.
00:14:47There can only be one big winner tonight.
00:14:50And that's me.
00:14:52Ira's right.
00:14:53A chef who relies only on spices is a one-trick pony.
00:14:56I'd rather just drink my protein shakes.
00:14:58Well, hold on.
00:14:59It's not that bad.
00:15:02You deserve to starve, Alex.
00:15:05You're worth the possibility of the culinary guru appearing to cure your illness.
00:15:09I wouldn't even consider taking you back.
00:15:19Master Blake.
00:15:21We all admire you greatly.
00:15:26Master Blake.
00:15:28Still no news of the culinary guru?
00:15:30My master's gone into seclusion with the junior apprentice,
00:15:32and I have not been able to find out where he is.
00:15:36Blake!
00:15:36Ira!
00:15:37Long time no see.
00:15:39What are you doing here?
00:15:40How do you two know each other?
00:15:44Mr. Blake, the competition's about to start, and the host is calling for you.
00:15:51Alex, don't worry.
00:15:52I think I'll still find the whereabouts of the culinary guru.
00:16:00Of course I know him.
00:16:05What could happen?
00:16:06People meet every day.
00:16:09Ladies and gentlemen, today's winner will receive an ancient lobster recipe and a vivid fancy pink diamond from the Thompson
00:16:19family.
00:16:20The competition officially begins.
00:16:22There's only one room.
00:16:24Whoever can get picky food critic Alex Thompson to eat their dish, wins.
00:16:32I suggest you back down now, before you embarrass yourself even more.
00:16:37Pressure mode driver crazy, right?
00:16:41What's she doing?
00:16:47I need a big pot.
00:16:49Um, sure.
00:16:50No problem.
00:16:52Behind you.
00:16:59What a unique cooking method.
00:17:03Ira, what are you doing?
00:17:05You're disgracing the Williams family.
00:17:09I've got more tricks up my sleeve, Ira.
00:17:12Just wait and see how you make a fool of yourself.
00:17:19I'm sorry.
00:17:25Just as I thought.
00:17:26Good thing I have my mentor's secret recipe.
00:17:32Can't even handle the basics.
00:17:35Try not to poison the judges with that shit.
00:17:40What's she doing?
00:17:41No seasonings?
00:17:43Hilarious.
00:17:44She's out for sure.
00:17:50Awful.
00:17:51Trash.
00:17:52This is an assault on my senses.
00:17:57Could there be a twist?
00:17:59Is Alex going to taste it?
00:18:04Up next.
00:18:06Michelin-starred chef Evelyn Williams.
00:18:09Will this dish impress?
00:18:11Alex, you're in for a treat.
00:18:20Alex, this dish seems different.
00:18:24Seems like you're savoring it.
00:18:30Totally flavorless.
00:18:31It's like my taste buds were on a vacation.
00:18:33I'll forget this dish the moment that I'm finished with it.
00:18:36For a chef, nothing is worse than being mediocre.
00:18:45Is there no food worthy of a gourmand like me?
00:18:49Looks like his taste buds are as sharp as ever.
00:18:53Anyone willing to try this stew stuff?
00:18:57Chaotic stew.
00:18:58Chaotic stew.
00:18:59Zero presentation, zero appeal.
00:19:01This dish doesn't even warrant a critique.
00:19:04I really overestimated Ira.
00:19:07Looks like Alex isn't interested in Ira's dish either.
00:19:10Will our gourmand go home empty-handed?
00:19:12You guys don't understand.
00:19:15My stew will be unforgettable after just one bite.
00:19:24Ira, stop.
00:19:26You're an embarrassment to the profession.
00:19:29What's that?
00:19:30This familiar allure.
00:19:32I even want to try this ugly dish.
00:19:35What's happening?
00:19:37Why am I tempted by this ugly food?
00:19:40If I eat this, I may lose my reputation as a foodie.
00:19:44But I really want to try it.
00:19:53Alex, wake up!
00:19:55Hey.
00:19:56Cut it out with a cheek pinch.
00:19:59Alex, you're finally awake.
00:20:01We thought we'd lost you.
00:20:03Ira, were you worried about me?
00:20:05Ira might actually have a thing for me.
00:20:08Feels not bad.
00:20:11Boss, you were out a long time.
00:20:14Alex, where are your supplements?
00:20:17Are you even taking care of yourself?
00:20:19I'm fine.
00:20:20It's just a sudden hunger pain.
00:20:22My body couldn't keep up with my appetite.
00:20:24Don't give me that.
00:20:25With those bloody standards,
00:20:27only a culinary guru could make you eat.
00:20:31Well, actually, I made that dish.
00:20:33Who are you?
00:20:34Uh, Grandma, this is Ira Williams.
00:20:38She's my wife now.
00:20:39Wife?
00:20:40Someone who can actually tolerate your pickiness?
00:20:45Dear, can you really make something Alex will eat?
00:20:51Well, Alex is as picky as a toddler.
00:20:55I'd finally made something he was willing to try,
00:20:57and then he fainted.
00:20:59Alex, you're so thin, you could fit under a locked door.
00:21:02You're not looking healthy.
00:21:04Isn't he a handful?
00:21:06Yeah.
00:21:06All right.
00:21:08One more shot.
00:21:09The stew you made at the competition?
00:21:11Stay put.
00:21:12I'll cure you.
00:21:19What?
00:21:21Where's my seasonings?
00:21:23Easy there, Ira.
00:21:24You can still do it.
00:21:26It will just take a bit more time.
00:21:29Ma'am, the boss is fainted again.
00:21:31When's the dish ready?
00:21:35Again?
00:21:35Seriously?
00:21:36One sec.
00:21:39Strange.
00:21:40Hearing that Alex fainted made me cut my finger.
00:21:46It's just a little boo-boo.
00:21:47Who needs the culinary guru?
00:21:49Hang tight, Alex.
00:21:51Alex.
00:21:56I brought you the stew.
00:22:00Ira, you're late.
00:22:02Alex had my dish and is back on his fee.
00:22:05Oh, really?
00:22:06The dish that made him faint at the competition?
00:22:09I gotta try it.
00:22:12Alex, you did eat my stuff, right?
00:22:16Yeah.
00:22:17Thanks for that.
00:22:19Ira, get over here.
00:22:20Nope.
00:22:21Hey, what happened to your hand?
00:22:23So you do care, Alex?
00:22:25No, it's not like that.
00:22:27Just wrap it up before you bring me that stew.
00:22:29I don't want blood in my food.
00:22:30Forget that old stew.
00:22:32I'll take care of you, and I can fix your eating problem.
00:22:35Only food from the culinary guru counts.
00:22:38Everything else is trash.
00:22:40You...
00:22:40Hey, I can pay.
00:22:42I'm not after money.
00:22:44If Alex can eat my food, then I'm the best choice to be his wife.
00:22:48Ditch Ira, and let's get married.
00:22:53Marrying Alex means all his money is mine.
00:22:56Oh, don't count on me leaving Alex.
00:22:58That fortune is mine.
00:23:01Do you really want to be with someone after your cash?
00:23:03It's not your business.
00:23:08Vaughn, give me a band-aid.
00:23:15Alex promised to share his inheritance with me.
00:23:20Do it yourself.
00:23:23Hello?
00:23:24Hello, my dear apprentice.
00:23:26I just got my phone and called you.
00:23:28How are you?
00:23:29I miss you, my dear.
00:23:32I thought I might come for a visit.
00:23:34Awesome.
00:23:35My mentor is coming to visit.
00:23:37Robert, I need backup.
00:23:39I married this rich guy, Alex Thompson,
00:23:41and now my stepsister is after him and his money.
00:23:44What are you talking about?
00:23:46I'm not after money.
00:23:48Ira, is that how you talk about me?
00:23:50Your mentor is going to think I'm an asshole.
00:23:52Why do you care what he thinks?
00:23:54Maybe you should worry about your own problems.
00:24:00Alex, great news.
00:24:01Your appetite issues are about to be fixed.
00:24:04With me taking care of your meals, you'll be fine.
00:24:08Is her cooking skill really better than Ira?
00:24:10Actually, it's culinary guru.
00:24:12Really?
00:24:13Where is he?
00:24:14I've contacted Master.
00:24:16He's coming to help you.
00:24:20I need to win Alex over before he arrives.
00:24:24She hung up on me.
00:24:26I tell you, that Ira is getting way out of line.
00:24:29Wait a minute.
00:24:30Isn't Alex Thompson the CEO with the eating disorder
00:24:33that Blake asked me to treat?
00:24:46Oh, my dear apprentice.
00:24:48I'm on my way.
00:24:52They think they can kick me to the curb
00:24:53just because they found the culinary guru?
00:24:59Where'd I ever get this stuff anyway?
00:25:02It actually got Alex to eat my food.
00:25:05But it's mine now.
00:25:08Once Alex drinks this love potion,
00:25:11he's all mine.
00:25:21Try my soup while it's still hot.
00:25:26How's a whiff of the culinary guru?
00:25:28Could this seasoning be linked to the culinary guru?
00:25:31It's Ira's shit.
00:25:33That's a stretch.
00:25:34I could get used to it.
00:25:36Since you could finally eat,
00:25:38let me feed you.
00:25:39I got this.
00:25:40Thanks.
00:25:41Come on, don't push me away.
00:25:42What's wrong with you?
00:25:44And why is it so hot in here?
00:25:47Seriously, Evelyn, get off.
00:25:49Feeling warm?
00:25:51Let me help.
00:25:52Alex, something's off with the culinary guru.
00:25:57What are you doing here?
00:26:00This is how you help?
00:26:05I gotta see this.
00:26:12Get lost.
00:26:20Feeling better already, huh?
00:26:22She calls that help,
00:26:24and you just watched me get groped.
00:26:34My heart.
00:26:36Am I sick too?
00:26:38Alex, you're burning up.
00:26:39Can I help?
00:26:40Yeah, I...
00:26:42I could use your help.
00:26:52Hey, what the hell?
00:26:54Well, you were overheating.
00:26:56You must have a fever.
00:26:57I thought it might cool you down.
00:26:59Did it work?
00:27:00Ira, you were such a dork.
00:27:05Dammit, Ira, you ruined my game.
00:27:08Seriously, you're such an idiot.
00:27:10You too, John?
00:27:11Alex, guess what?
00:27:13I met the culinary guru.
00:27:15He thinks I'm a prodigy
00:27:17and wants to take me on as his apprentice.
00:27:18If my master listens to me,
00:27:20I would make the right choice.
00:27:22Are you threatening me?
00:27:24With an apprentice like you,
00:27:26that culinary guru must be a joke.
00:27:28If I don't sweet talk Alex into marrying me,
00:27:30I'll miss my shot when the culinary guru shows up.
00:27:33Alex, marry me,
00:27:35and I'll make sure the culinary guru cures you.
00:27:37Not a chance.
00:27:39Is Ira finally waking up?
00:27:42Wait.
00:27:43Alex tossed your dish at the competition.
00:27:46What's your secret to getting him to eat it now?
00:27:51The seasoning Alex could eat,
00:27:53that was the one Ira left behind
00:27:54at the culinary guru contest.
00:27:56Could it be?
00:27:58She's his apprentice!
00:28:00Ira, what's your connection to the culinary guru?
00:28:03Why do you keep asking me that?
00:28:05I don't know any culinary guru.
00:28:07So Ira really is the culinary guru's apprentice,
00:28:10and she doesn't even realize it.
00:28:11Well, maybe I can put that to use.
00:28:13Alex, how long can you wait?
00:28:15Hey, don't you care about your health?
00:28:17Hands off the inheritance.
00:28:22Who's picking on my apprentice?
00:28:24Is that her mentor?
00:28:26Mentor?
00:28:27Does she be a culinary guru?
00:28:30Robert, you're here!
00:28:31Great to see you, kid.
00:28:33I've missed you a ton.
00:28:39Nice digs you got here, kid.
00:28:42You landed a top to your husband, didn't you?
00:28:44I can't believe you're finally here.
00:28:46I've missed you heaps.
00:28:47The culinary guru is here.
00:28:51Everyone, me, Chef Robert McFombay.
00:28:54This guy?
00:28:55No way he's the world-famous culinary guru.
00:28:57He's as basic as Ira.
00:28:59Ira, bringing in some random grandpa
00:29:02just drags down Alex's reputation.
00:29:04Shut the fuck up, Evelyn.
00:29:07Don't insult my mentor.
00:29:08Let this queen twat yap.
00:29:12This is her only talent.
00:29:14Who are you calling twat?
00:29:16Old coon?
00:29:18I am the culinary guru's apprentice.
00:29:22One phone call, and I'll snuff you both out.
00:29:24The culinary guru's apprentice?
00:29:28Funny.
00:29:29Never heard of you.
00:29:33Please, people like you
00:29:36from the middle of nowhere
00:29:37wouldn't know a celebrity
00:29:39if you sat down right in front of you.
00:29:41Enough, Evelyn.
00:29:42Apologize to my mentor.
00:29:45What's so funny, old coot?
00:29:47You say you're the culinary guru's apprentice.
00:29:51Why not prove it?
00:29:53With a cook-off with my apprentice.
00:29:57I just won the culinary championship.
00:30:00Why would I be scared of you, Ira?
00:30:03Last time you already lost.
00:30:05I was out last time,
00:30:07so that doesn't prove that Ira lost to you.
00:30:10Evelyn, I'm tired of your attitude.
00:30:12Threatening Alex with your cooking?
00:30:14Let's just see who's dish he actually wants to taste.
00:30:17Ira, get real.
00:30:18If Alex could stomach your food,
00:30:20he would have by now.
00:30:23We'll see.
00:30:31With my secret sauce,
00:30:33let's see you stand a chance, Ira.
00:30:36Now why does she have my special blend in her hand?
00:30:43Oh no!
00:30:44Your fish, it's burning!
00:30:45What?
00:30:51You sly old man!
00:30:53Learn from me and you might succeed.
00:30:56Copy me and you're going down.
00:30:58Let's see you beat Ira now,
00:30:59without my special blend.
00:31:04Alex will love this little kid food.
00:31:07Burn, baby, burn.
00:31:11All set, just need my turkey.
00:31:18What the hell?
00:31:20You burnt?
00:31:21No time to fix this now.
00:31:27Come at me, sis.
00:31:29You're always going to lose.
00:31:38You have to try my dish.
00:31:41Where's Ira?
00:31:42I'm not hungry yet.
00:31:44I'll wait for her food.
00:31:45My soul is going to get cold, Alex.
00:31:48Why wait your stomach for Ira?
00:31:52What's taking her so long?
00:31:56What's going on, ma'am?
00:31:58Look, she has nothing, Alex.
00:32:00Looks like she's ready to throw in the towel.
00:32:03Ira?
00:32:04What's going on?
00:32:06Given to you?
00:32:08Not a chance.
00:32:11Didn't even finish a dish
00:32:13and she's still talking big.
00:32:15Face it, Alex.
00:32:16She's all talk.
00:32:17Not marriage material.
00:32:19Who says I didn't finish?
00:32:22Just...
00:32:23What?
00:32:24Just hold your horses.
00:32:26Stop stalling, Ira.
00:32:28You missed the deadline.
00:32:30You lose.
00:32:31I'm the one who deserves that ring.
00:32:34Alex, you're not actually buying this, right?
00:32:37Ira, when did I get this?
00:32:38What did I ever say?
00:32:39Just...
00:32:40Alex, just try this.
00:32:42When I win, Ira's out.
00:32:44And the title's mine for good.
00:32:46Go on, Alex.
00:32:46Dig in.
00:32:47Let's hear the verdict.
00:32:59Hey, you good, boss?
00:33:02That is the worst slap I have ever tasted.
00:33:06What the hell?
00:33:08What did you put in that?
00:33:10It's triggering his eating disorder.
00:33:12Impossible.
00:33:13My spices are perfect.
00:33:15Someone must have messed with them.
00:33:17Evelyn, really.
00:33:18You're calling this yours?
00:33:21That's mine.
00:33:22I couldn't find it at the competition.
00:33:24So you take it.
00:33:28Evelyn, really.
00:33:30This is ours.
00:33:31You're a thief.
00:33:32No, no.
00:33:33Alex, you have to believe me.
00:33:35Vaughn, get...
00:33:36Kick her out.
00:33:36Alex, just give me one more shot.
00:33:38I can whip up something amazing.
00:33:40Get lost.
00:33:42This can't be happening.
00:33:51Get that away from me.
00:33:52I can't even handle a protein shake right now.
00:33:5925 Oak Street.
00:34:00Yes, we have an emergency.
00:34:02Chronic eating disorder.
00:34:03Yes, we need help right away.
00:34:05Hang tight.
00:34:06My dish is almost done.
00:34:08Guess I'm doomed to starve as a foodie.
00:34:11Only the culinary guru gets me.
00:34:14So if the culinary guru doesn't show,
00:34:16you're off to meet the big man upstairs, huh?
00:34:24You know, Irish cooking has totally surpassed mine.
00:34:26You gotta try it.
00:34:27It's a flavor journey, man.
00:34:28I can't trust anyone anymore.
00:34:31Eating garbage every day.
00:34:33Just take me now.
00:34:38Alex, since you wanted a divorce,
00:34:40shall we figure out what happens next?
00:34:42Who talked about a divorce?
00:34:44I'm on my last legs here.
00:34:46Couldn't you at least comfort me?
00:34:48Weird.
00:34:48Weird.
00:34:49I kinda don't like seeing Alex like this.
00:34:53What's that noise?
00:34:56No need for the hospital.
00:34:58Huh?
00:34:59My roast chicken is ready.
00:35:09Here, Alex.
00:35:10Chow down.
00:35:13Guess your fortune is mine.
00:35:15Forget about him, Ira.
00:35:16Let's dig in.
00:35:19Man, that smells amazing.
00:35:22Try a piece.
00:35:25Butter.
00:35:26It's so sad my boss can't eat nothing.
00:35:35Boss, this is the best food ever.
00:35:37You really gotta try some.
00:35:38Please.
00:35:39Told you.
00:35:41Ira's got skills.
00:35:42You can talk all you want.
00:35:44This world's food has burned me too many times.
00:35:46I've told Alex my cooking could cure him.
00:35:49Do all husbands not trust their wives?
00:35:51Maybe I just need a normal guy.
00:35:53Well, what are you after?
00:35:54Pretty boy, huh?
00:35:55Handsome guy.
00:35:56I've got connections.
00:35:59Oh, well, look who the cat dragged in.
00:36:05How was heaven treating you?
00:36:11Fine.
00:36:12One more shot.
00:36:15But remember, I'm a food critic.
00:36:17I'll be keeping it real.
00:36:19No sugarcone.
00:36:22If you want some, help yourself.
00:36:25What are you waiting for, a butler?
00:36:43What?
00:36:44Ira's cooking is even better than The Culinary Guru.
00:36:48Boss is eating.
00:36:49I've got to tell Lady Linda.
00:36:53Ira, what is your connection to The Culinary Guru?
00:36:56Why do you keep asking that?
00:36:58I don't know a culinary guru.
00:37:00He's probably just a scammer.
00:37:08But that box you made was just like The Culinary Guru.
00:37:12And your dish, Ira, even I, a top critic, I've got to admit, it's legit.
00:37:18Oh, well, Robert made that one.
00:37:26Yeah, uh, sorry, I forgot to say.
00:37:29I'm the one everyone's been talking about.
00:37:32I'm the culinary guru.
00:37:37What?
00:37:38And Ira here, my apprentice, is already better than I am.
00:37:49Why didn't you tell us sooner?
00:37:51Alex wouldn't have been sick this entire time.
00:37:54Ira, I didn't know you actually cared about me.
00:37:59Well, you're such a picky eater.
00:38:01You had me believing that my cooking needed some serious work.
00:38:05So you've just been cooking for me to test your skills, huh?
00:38:13Boss, you're eating again!
00:38:15We're in the clear for the food court project.
00:38:21Alex, I whipped up a new dish.
00:38:22You've got to try it.
00:38:24Another review session?
00:38:25As your test subject.
00:38:27You know, I have my pride, too.
00:38:29Why are you acting so serious?
00:38:35What's this mess?
00:38:38You know I'm a bit of a neat freak.
00:38:42So, other than cooking,
00:38:44do you have any big dreams?
00:38:46I sure do!
00:38:47Ha!
00:38:59I knew to save my dinner from burning.
00:39:05Life's better when you can actually eat.
00:39:15Why is my face so hot?
00:39:31Oh crap, I ruined it.
00:39:34My first time messing up a dish and it's all Alex's fault?
00:39:38I must be cursed.
00:39:39No way, I'm out of here.
00:39:43Oh, I love this suit.
00:39:45Oh, it's so nice.
00:39:51Alex, since you're feeling better, I'm out of here.
00:39:58So, who's this?
00:40:02Hi, I'm Gina.
00:40:04Ira, you said you were leaving?
00:40:06You know what?
00:40:08I might stick around.
00:40:20What's the hurry?
00:40:22Grandma, Alex is downstairs chatting with some girl.
00:40:25No.
00:40:28Alex, I've missed you all these years.
00:40:31Oh, really?
00:40:32I don't believe it.
00:40:33Grandma, who is she?
00:40:35I don't buy it either.
00:40:37She's just acting sweet.
00:40:39She's Alex's first crush.
00:40:41The one that left him to study abroad.
00:40:44Without a thought.
00:40:46Gina, didn't you swear you were done with this place?
00:40:55Alex, I've missed you all these years.
00:40:57I came back because my heart belongs to you.
00:41:01Looks like I was catching feelings for Alex.
00:41:06I know I blew it before.
00:41:08I put my plans before us
00:41:10and threw away everything that we had,
00:41:12but I'm here.
00:41:14I'm willing to throw away all my pride,
00:41:16whatever it takes.
00:41:17Just say I'll give it one more chance.
00:41:20Gina, you left me with nothing but a letter.
00:41:22I was lost trying to make sense of it for so long.
00:41:26And now you're back.
00:41:27What's the point?
00:41:28Alex, I came back for us.
00:41:30I've never forgotten about us.
00:41:32After all these years,
00:41:34I know you still feel it too.
00:41:36You haven't forgotten what we had.
00:41:39Let's just give it another shot.
00:41:50Aren't you hungry, Alex?
00:41:52Let's go.
00:41:54Alex!
00:41:55Gina, I'm married now.
00:41:57Just go.
00:42:01Ow!
00:42:02Ow!
00:42:03Oh!
00:42:05Oh!
00:42:05Oh my ankle, I twisted it!
00:42:07You okay?
00:42:08I twisted it, it hurts!
00:42:10Oh, Alex!
00:42:11Put the ointment on it like you used to.
00:42:14Alex, I haven't forgotten how sweet you are.
00:42:17I'll take care of it.
00:42:20Ow!
00:42:21Ow!
00:42:22Ow!
00:42:23I was acting all weird.
00:42:26Is she finally feeling jealous?
00:42:31Ow!
00:42:33Ow!
00:42:33Ow!
00:42:35Now, Frank, he's totally faking it.
00:42:43Ow!
00:42:44Easy!
00:42:45You're crushing me!
00:42:46Oh, you're fine.
00:42:47But this time, I'm gonna make sure it really hurts.
00:42:58Ira, where are you going?
00:43:05Ira, you look like you lost your puppy.
00:43:08Alex's ex is back in town.
00:43:13Better keep your eye out.
00:43:14Alex is my husband. I'm not letting anyone take his fortune.
00:43:18Yeah, where a guy's heart goes, the wallet soon follows.
00:43:21Well, then I'll make sure Alex loves me.
00:43:24You got your work cut out for you.
00:43:26Body, she's got your feet.
00:43:29Looks, she's classy. You're comfy.
00:43:32She's got her degree and you're still learning.
00:43:37Personality, she's sweet.
00:43:39You're hungry.
00:43:41Don't forget, she's Alex's first love.
00:43:43Guys, don't forget that.
00:43:48Well, crap. I guess I don't stand a chance.
00:43:51Well, you got one ace up your sleeve.
00:43:55You were there for him and helped him through his eating disorder.
00:44:00You were there when he needed you.
00:44:03I've gotta cook something good.
00:44:04There's no way I'm letting go of that fortune.
00:44:10Poor kid.
00:44:12She's got it bad and doesn't even know it.
00:44:15Thinks it's all about the cash.
00:44:20Really? No second chance for me?
00:44:24Gina, I'm taken.
00:44:27Take care.
00:44:36Hi, it's Ira.
00:44:38Sorry I missed your call.
00:44:39Leave a message.
00:44:40Where's Ira?
00:44:43She's just dodging my calls.
00:44:46That must be Ira.
00:44:48Time to see if she's jealous.
00:44:55Got it, Alex.
00:44:56I'll be leaving tomorrow.
00:44:58Let's have this drink as a farewell.
00:45:01Cheers to your next chapter.
00:45:06Hmm.
00:45:15Are you alright?
00:45:16Here, let me help you.
00:45:28Oh, Alex.
00:45:30We have so much to catch up on after all this time.
00:45:34Alex, you have to try my new dish.
00:45:46Alex, Ira left because she's upset with us.
00:45:50What do you think we should do?
00:45:52Get off.
00:45:53Ira!
00:45:56Alex.
00:45:58Gina, seriously?
00:46:00You drugged my drink.
00:46:02That's low even for you.
00:46:04Alex, no, come on.
00:46:07Get off.
00:46:10You're gonna regret this.
00:46:18Steven, the chef's apprentice is out.
00:46:22You're halfway to taking the food court project.
00:46:25Well done, Gina.
00:46:27Alex, remember when you trashed Snow for using garbage ingredients?
00:46:32This time, I'm gonna wipe the floor with you and show you how wrong you were.
00:46:37We need top quality ingredients for this project or-
00:46:41I got it.
00:46:42Oh, you've reminded me of something.
00:46:44Besides the apprentice of culinary grower.
00:46:47Galax has got his own head chefs.
00:46:49I'm back.
00:46:50I'll poach them all and leave him with nothing to fight back.
00:46:53Once we snag the food court project, I'll get my share, right?
00:46:57Absolutely.
00:46:58You're halfway.
00:46:59You'll get your cut.
00:47:02Alex, I gave you a chance.
00:47:04This is all on you.
00:47:16She blocked me.
00:47:18What is she, a teenager?
00:47:21Boss?
00:47:22We've got a problem.
00:47:23That stupid Steven's been stealing our chefs left and right.
00:47:26We won't have a head chef for the Food City project next week,
00:47:29and word is we're heading for bankruptcy.
00:47:31Of all the times for Ira to throw a fit.
00:47:34Okay.
00:47:35Get on it.
00:47:36Find us a new chef before the bidding meeting.
00:47:44Hot off the press, KL's group's top chef have flocked over to Steven Snow Group,
00:47:50leaving little doubt about who will win next week's Food City project.
00:47:55Could this be the beginning of the end for KL Group?
00:47:58Oh, man, Alex is in trouble.
00:48:01So what? He has Gina now, doesn't he?
00:48:04Yeah, I guess.
00:48:05Alex is yesterday's news.
00:48:07I'm gonna go cook.
00:48:13Is it really that bad?
00:48:15Are you thinking about helping Alex?
00:48:16No.
00:48:22After the judges voting, the finalists for the Food City bidding competition are
00:48:27KL Group and Snow Group.
00:48:33All right, folks, it's time for round two, where we invite our star Michelin-starred chefs to the plate
00:48:39to create their magnum opuses.
00:48:42Let's get things started with Snow Group.
00:48:44Please, give her a warm welcome, folks.
00:48:54Gina.
00:48:54Gina.
00:48:57Didn't expect this, did you, Alex?
00:49:00Gina's been on my side the entire time.
00:49:03All that talk of you two getting back together?
00:49:05Just a little trick to separate you from your precious apprentice.
00:49:10Alex.
00:49:11I gave you a chance.
00:49:15When you told everybody that my company uses inferior ingredients, I swore I was going to bring you down.
00:49:22Your character is just like your ingredients. Rotten on the inside and out.
00:49:29Keep talking tough, Alex.
00:49:31But where are you now?
00:49:33No head chef.
00:49:34No culinary genius.
00:49:36I'm going to snatch that project you've been drooling over.
00:49:40And then, I'm going to watch KL Group crumble.
00:49:46Ladies and gentlemen, now we have the lovely Miss Gina ready to present her dish.
00:49:52KL Group, it's your turn to step up.
00:49:56What's going on? Why is there nobody on Alex's side?
00:49:59Yeah, it looks like they're ready to wave the white flag.
00:50:01All this right now, I'm going to call my chef.
00:50:04I'm going to fall over here.
00:50:06Just go ahead and throw in the towel, Alex.
00:50:08Even if you squeak by the first round, you've got no one for the second.
00:50:16She's got me all wrong, and I don't think she's coming back.
00:50:19This misunderstanding is too deep.
00:50:22Since we have no one from KL Group to compete, I hereby announce that the winner is...
00:50:28Snow!
00:50:29Wait a minute!
00:50:33Alex, I'm back.
00:50:39What's the score?
00:50:41We're toast.
00:50:42I thought Gina was your ace.
00:50:44Guess she's not cutting it, huh?
00:50:46It's not like that with her and me.
00:50:48And Gina's representing Steven in this competition.
00:50:50So your little reunion didn't go as planned?
00:50:54Ira, nothing happened with her.
00:50:56I will represent the KL Group.
00:50:58I'll take Gina on myself.
00:51:01Aren't we expecting to see Michelin-starred chefs on stage?
00:51:05Are you really in that league?
00:51:07No, I'm not.
00:51:08How can she compete when she doesn't have any credentials, especially against Gina?
00:51:13I mean, she has royal chef status.
00:51:17Royal chef? Never heard of it.
00:51:19I was trained by the culinary guru, though, if that means anything.
00:51:24Look at the culinary guru hasn't been around for ages.
00:51:28And besides, Gina, she trained with the sea guru, Robert.
00:51:31She said she trained with them? I mean, what?
00:51:35Wait, you're the culinary guru's apprentice?
00:51:41So, Steven stole all of Alex's chefs.
00:51:44Well, I may not be Michelin star status, but I have what it takes to represent the KL Group.
00:51:50Why do you think you can represent KL?
00:51:53Because I'm his wife. That's why.
00:51:57Ira, you're a lifesaver.
00:52:00Let's see what you cook up.
00:52:04I'll give it a try and we'll see who takes the crown.
00:52:08And who are you, old man? What makes you think you're in charge here?
00:52:13He's Alan Ducasse, president of the Dupont Group. The project's big cheese.
00:52:22Oh, he's definitely the one with the final say.
00:52:26Sir, this is the dish from Snoke.
00:52:32Rich and aromatic. Like you're basking in a warm Mediterranean sun.
00:52:39I created this with the combined efforts of three top chefs.
00:52:44So good luck beating that, Ira.
00:52:46You may be the culinary guru's apprentice, but that doesn't mean that you can outshine the work of four of
00:52:51us combined.
00:52:57Seriously, you think you could compete with something so simple and rough?
00:53:03This is what the culinary guru's apprentice comes up with? It's so inelegant.
00:53:08You don't understand. A chef who can't cook with pure ingredients will never make the best food.
00:53:16Ira's right. A chef who relies only on spices is a one-trick pony.
00:53:20I'd rather just drink my protein shakes.
00:53:34What's up with Alan? Why isn't he saying anything?
00:53:37Do you think the stuff is that bad?
00:53:39It must be terrible. Mr. Alan's in tears.
00:53:42No one asked your opinion. Mr. Alan, how does it taste?
00:53:49My dream since I was young was to taste the best food in the world.
00:53:54I never guessed I would do it today.
00:53:57I've waited 30 years for this dish.
00:54:00I declare the KL group, led by Alex, winner.
00:54:05This isn't fair! I use the best, most expensive ingredients for my dish!
00:54:10How can plain scrambled eggs beat that?
00:54:12If all they care about is chasing fancy and extravagant, that is not what the project needs.
00:54:18Snow group doesn't cut it.
00:54:21Just wait, Alex, I'm gonna make you pay!
00:54:26Ira, you crushed it! Food City project is ours!
00:54:29I told you I could do it!
00:54:30Miss Ira, I have to know, what were you thinking while you were whipping those eggs that became so delicious?
00:54:39I guess I was just thinking about someone special.
00:54:45Miss Ira, sounds like you have it for that person.
00:54:56Miss Ira, you promised me a surprise.
00:55:04What is it?
00:55:06Ira, thanks for everything in this competition.
00:55:09This is a family heirloom, meant for Mrs. Thompson.
00:55:15So Ira, will you be mine forever?
00:55:26Stay forever?
00:55:28That sounds boring.
00:55:29I haven't even explored the world yet.
00:55:32Guess I can't keep the bracelet, huh?
00:55:37Ira, do you not get it, or are you just messing with me?
00:55:46Hey, Alex, what's up? You called for me?
00:55:49I have two gifts for you.
00:55:54Here's a card with half my fortune.
00:55:56Take it as a thank you.
00:56:01Alex, you're the best. I love cash.
00:56:03Now I can buy all the ingredients I want and travel anywhere.
00:56:08Ira, I like you.
00:56:10I want to take our relationship to the next level.
00:56:12What do you think? How do you feel about me?
00:56:17Um, you certainly have the money, and you let me prove my cooking abilities.
00:56:21You really have made all my dreams come true.
00:56:23Ira, you want out, right?
00:56:27I'll give you the money and the freedom you want.
00:56:32Here's a divorce agreement.
00:56:35Let's end this.
00:56:45Ira, sign this and you're free.
00:56:49I'm leaving the country after it's done.
00:56:51Take care.
00:56:52I just remembered something.
00:57:08What does Alex mean?
00:57:16Why can't I stop thinking about him?
00:57:24Why was I thinking about Alex all night?
00:57:26Alex seemed off yesterday.
00:57:29Maybe I should cheer him up when I see him.
00:57:31Oh crap, I never signed the divorce papers.
00:57:34How do I bring that up?
00:57:40Where's Alex?
00:57:42Feels weird not seeing him around.
00:57:47Grandma, where's Alex?
00:57:49Oh Alex, he's at the airport.
00:57:51About to jet off.
00:57:52Congrats, honey.
00:57:54You'll finally be free.
00:57:55No more Alex to nag you.
00:57:58What?
00:58:07Boss, the plane is boarding.
00:58:08Looks like she's not coming.
00:58:11She didn't even bother to show up.
00:58:15Like I can.
00:58:17Vaughn.
00:58:18Let's go home.
00:58:23Alex!
00:58:28I can't stand the thought of losing you.
00:58:33Ira, if I stay, you'll end up leaving.
00:58:36You want your freedom and you don't love me.
00:58:39I can't be selfish and keep you trapped in this marriage.
00:58:42I don't want you to leave.
00:58:43Why not?
00:58:45Because...
00:58:47Because when I'm not with you, you're all I think about.
00:58:52Alex, you asked me how I felt and I finally know.
00:58:57I love you.
00:59:02I love you.
00:59:06I love you too.
00:59:18I'm not planning on this.
00:59:19That's not real, it doesn't matter.
00:59:21Huh?
00:59:28So I give you my heart.
