Short filmTranscript
00:14Mmm. Nailed it.
00:18Nice.
00:19Oh my gosh, so good. Thanks, I...
00:21My blue lobster, my...
00:24My gourmet tuna!
00:26My treasures!
00:27Chef McFlambe, what's wrong?
00:28You used all my top-shelf shit?
00:33Well, why let the primo ingredients go to waste, you know?
00:36We're done.
00:37We're like a diet soda at a barbecue, completely empty.
00:40Your cooking skills have surpassed mine.
00:43You could go down the mountain and make some cash.
00:46And there are endless ingredients down there, so you'll really shine.
01:06Watch out, world. Here I come.
01:11Vaughn has the prep for the culinary competition coming.
01:14Everything is on track.
01:28We have to find the culinary guru this time.
01:37Is the culinary guru really on this mountain?
01:43I'm starting to think God cursed me with an eating disorder for all of my hormone talent.
01:48What?
01:53Hey dude, what are you doing?
01:57I'm starving.
02:07Here.
02:08Try this.
02:10I am a renowned food critic.
02:12I would rather starve than eat something that looks like it was wrapped by a raccoon.
02:21Fine.
02:22Hope you don't regret it.
02:24What's in it?
02:26Just regular food.
02:27Just regular food.
02:29Now, show me.
02:29So now you want to try it?
02:31Pay me first.
02:35I am a legendary food critic.
02:38If I am even thinking about eating that, you should be rolling out the red carpet.
02:43Well, isn't this funny?
02:45The starving foodie.
02:47I never heard of you.
02:48How do I know you're not a fraud?
02:50Same deal.
02:51No cash.
02:52No food.
03:03Here you go.
03:16Well, it was a pleasure serving you today.
03:18I hope to see you again soon.
03:23It's just like that day.
03:25Oh!
03:26Boss!
03:27You're...
03:28You're eating again?
03:30A year ago,
03:31I was a skeleton on the street.
03:34And the culinary guru's food saved my life.
03:38Ever since then,
03:39I've never tasted anything like it.
03:41She mu-
03:45Bond,
03:45we have to find her.
03:47She might have some connection to the culinary guru.
03:55This jar is perfect for pickles.
03:57Mom,
03:58tell me why we brought this clueless country bumpkin home.
04:02You've always complained about your fiancé,
04:05that eating disorder guy,
04:07so why don't we have her marry into the Thompson family instead?
04:11So,
04:12if Alex marries Ira,
04:15when he kicks the bucket,
04:16we can snag his fortune through her?
04:19Smart girl.
04:21Just like your mother.
04:21Did you say fortune?
04:23Is my dad finally gonna kick the bucket and leave me some cash?
04:26You heartless brat.
04:28I found a great husband for you.
04:30Get yourself ready to marry him.
04:32No, I came down to make money,
04:34not get married.
04:36Someone like you,
04:37so poor and provincial,
04:39should be grateful that someone wants you.
04:47Oh, come on.
04:48Someone as ugly as you could still marry my dad.
04:50I'm far superior to you,
04:53so I wouldn't worry about me.
04:55Mom!
04:56Our top priority right now is to secure the marriage with the sickly Thompson heir.
05:00I'm here to handle this.
05:07What a handsome guy.
05:09Too bad he's on the verge of dying.
05:11Mr. Thompson,
05:12what brings you here?
05:13I heard Miss Williams doesn't seem to honor our engagement,
05:16so let's just call the wedding off.
05:19Wait, there must be a misunderstanding.
05:22This is Ira,
05:25the eldest daughter of the Williams family.
05:27She can represent the Williams family in marrying you.
05:31It's you.
05:34Miss, you know my boss?
05:36Yeah, I caught him on the brink of starvation,
05:39just near-
05:43One more word,
05:45and you're toast.
05:46Why can't I say anything?
05:47It's no secret you're starving.
05:51So on this day,
05:53he just collapsed right at my th-
05:54Miss Williams?
05:55You've convinced me.
05:56Let's get married.
06:15Hey Vaughn.
06:18What's with all the cash?
06:19You buying a farm?
06:20The boss is trying to tackle his eating disorder.
06:23I hired the top medical team,
06:24and this is their job.
06:27Eating disorder,
06:28that's easy peasy.
06:30Hand it over and I'll fix him up.
06:32What do you mean?
06:33You can send those doctors home,
06:35just give me the money and I'll handle the treatment.
06:44What are you doing?
06:45Alex,
06:46I'm gonna be your personal healing chef.
06:51You know nothing about it.
06:54How could you possibly cure me?
06:56You stop messing around,
06:58and just get out.
07:01Out.
07:22Well, they'll just stand there like a statue.
07:25Let's eat together.
07:26Try my food and you'll no longer look like a contestant
07:29on a survival reality TV show.
07:31Ugh.
07:32Look, I touched that.
07:33It's probably nasty as hell.
07:35Fine by me.
07:36Just don't come begging for it later.
07:44Yum yum!
07:45That is so ridiculously good!
07:53Hurry!
07:54Come eat!
07:55Irish cooking is out of this world!
08:02No.
08:03I'm good.
08:04I'm not hungry.
08:05Sri, you've got to hang in there!
08:08Another plate!
08:09No, make it too!
08:11Thank you for the best meal we've had in our entire lives!
08:15Oh, please.
08:16It's nothing.
08:19Hey, you pathetic self-important foodie.
08:23I wonder if you're drooling yet.

10:36done with Alex
10:42she's actually quite pretty
10:43when she's not being so noisy

11:55madam

12:01you're still looking for the culinary guru

12:51I will show you what I can do
12:56did you hear?
12:57the head apprentice of the culinary guru
12:59is coming to judge today
13:01yeah
13:01I just came to catch a glimpse of the legendary head apprentice
13:04I heard Alex is bringing his new wife
13:07I wonder what kind of woman the picky CEO ended up with
13:13Alex's wife?
13:15that girl is just an ugly and unrefined country bumpkin
13:19I can't believe Alex ended up with some broke and ugly chick
13:24look
13:44I can't believe Ira is so full of herself now
13:46should I not have called off the engagement before?
13:49don't be fooled by their current glamour
13:53I've heard Alex's condition is worsening
13:56otherwise he wouldn't be playing matchmaker for the culinary guru
14:00Alex owns a food empire
14:02if they could find culinary guru and cure him
14:05it would only benefit that hick Ira
14:08no way
14:09I have to win Alex back
14:12what's in those jars?
14:15those are called spices
14:18they're key to making gourmet dishes
14:23you know nothing country bumpkin
14:26oh those are just flashy things
14:28the most important part of real cuisine is to cook with the heart
14:32it's how you bring out the ingredients as natural flavors
14:35despite her usual unreliable demeanor
14:38she actually has her own insights about food
14:41you clueless hick
14:43don't pretend to know anything
14:45there can only be one big winner tonight
14:47and that's me
14:50Ira's right
14:51a chef who relies only on spices is a one trick pony
14:54I'd rather just drink my protein shakes
14:56well hold on it's not that bad
15:00you deserve to starve Alex
15:02if you're worth the possibility of the culinary guru appearing to cure your illness
15:07I wouldn't even consider taking you back
15:18master Blake
15:19we all admire you greatly
15:24master Blake
15:25still no news of the culinary guru
15:27my master's gone into seclusion with the junior apprentice
15:30and I have not been able to find out where he is
15:34Blake
15:34hi
15:35Ira
15:35long time no see
15:36what are you doing here?
15:38how do you two know each other?
15:42Mr. Blake
15:43the competition is about to start and the host is calling for you
15:48Alex
15:49don't worry
15:50I think I'll still find the whereabouts of the culinary guru
15:58of course I know him
16:02what could happen
16:03people meet every day
16:07ladies and gentlemen
16:09today's winner will receive an ancient lost recipe
16:12and a vivid fancy pink diamond from the Thompson family
16:17the competition officially begins
16:20there's only one room
16:21whoever can get picky food critic Alex Thompson to eat their dish
16:26wins
16:30I suggest you back down now before you embarrass yourself even more
16:34the pressure won't drive her crazy right?
16:39what's she doing?
16:44I need a big pot
16:46um sure no problem
16:49behind you
16:57what a unique cooking method
17:00Ira what are you doing?
17:03you're disgracing the Williams family
17:06I've got more tricks up my sleeve
17:08Ira
17:09just wait and see how you make a fool of yourself
17:22just as I thought
17:23good thing I have my mentor's secret recipe
17:29can't even handle the basics

27:29and I'll make sure the culinary guru cures you
27:32not a chance

27:37wait, Alex tossed her dish at the competition
27:40what's your secret to getting him to eat it now?
27:45the seasoning Alex could eat
27:47that was the one Ira left behind at the culinary guru contest
27:50could it be?
27:52she's his apprentice
27:54Ira, what's your connection to the culinary guru?
27:57why do you keep asking me that?
27:59I don't know any culinary guru
28:01so Ira really is the culinary guru's apprentice
28:03she doesn't even realize it
28:05well maybe I can put that to use
28:07Alex, how long can you wait?
28:10don't you care about your health?
28:12hands off the inheritance
28:16who's picking on my apprentice?
28:18is that her mentor?

34:03only the culinary guru gets me
34:06so if the culinary guru doesn't show
34:08you're off to meet the big man upstairs, huh?
34:15you know, Irish cooking has certainly surpassed mine
34:18you gotta try it, it's a flavor journey, man
34:20I can't trust anyone anymore
34:23eating garbage everyday
34:25just take me now
34:27oh my god

34:34who, who talked about a divorce?
34:36I'm on my last legs here
34:38couldn't you at least comfort me?
34:40weird
34:41I kinda don't like seeing Alex like this

35:35this world's food has burned me too many times
35:37I've told Alex my cooking could cure him

36:35Ira's cooking is even better than the culinary guru
36:39boss is eating, I've gotta tell Lady Linda
36:44Ira, what is your connection to the culinary guru?
36:47why do you keep asking that?
36:49I don't know a culinary guru
36:51he's probably just a scammer
36:57get over it already
37:00but that box you made was just like the culinary guru
37:04and your dish, Ira
37:06even I, a top critic
37:07I gotta admit, it's legit
37:10oh, well, Robert made that one
37:17yeah, uh, sorry, I forgot to say
37:21I'm the one everyone's been talking about
37:22I'm the culinary guru
37:28what?
37:30and Ira here, my apprentice
37:32is already better than I am
37:40why didn't you tell us sooner?
37:42Alex wouldn't have been sick this entire time
37:45Ira, I...
37:47I didn't know you actually cared about me
37:49well, you're such a picky eater
37:52you had me believing that my cooking needed some serious work
37:56so you've just been cooking for me to test your skills, huh?
38:04boss! you're eating again!
38:07we're in the clear for the food court project
38:11Alex, I whipped up a new dish, you gotta try it
38:14another review session?
38:16and then, as your test subject
38:17you know, I have my pride too
38:20why are you acting so serious?
38:26what's this mess?
38:29you know I'm a bit of a neat freak
38:33so, other than cooking
38:35do you have any big dreams?
38:36I sure do!
38:50I need to save my dinner from burning
38:51I need to save my dinner from burning
38:55life's better when you can actually eat
39:06why is my face so hot?
39:22oh crap, I ruined it!
39:24my first time messing up a dish and it's all Alex's fault?
39:28I must be cursed!
39:30no way, I'm out of here!
39:33oh, I love this suit, it's so nice!
39:36thank you
39:41Alex, since you're feeling better, I'm out of here
39:49so, who's this?
39:53hi, I'm Gina
39:54Ira, you said you were leaving?
39:57you know what?
39:58I might stick around
40:11what's the hurry?
40:12grandma, Alex is downstairs chatting with some girl
40:14no
40:18Alex, I've missed you all these years
40:21oh really? I don't believe it
40:23grandma, who is she?
40:25I don't buy it either
40:27she's just acting sweet
40:29she's Alex's first crush
40:30the one that left him to study abroad
40:33without a thought
40:37Gina, didn't you swear you were done with this place?
40:45Alex, I've missed you all these years
40:48I came back because my heart belongs to you
40:50looks like Ira's catching feelings for Alex
40:56I know I blew it before
40:58I put my plans before us
41:00and threw away everything that we had
41:02but I'm here
41:04I'm willing to throw away all my pride
41:06whatever it takes
41:07just say I'll give it one more chance
41:10Gina, you left me with nothing but a letter
41:12I was lost trying to make sense of it for so long
41:16and now you're back
41:17what's the point?
41:18Alex, I came back for us

46:10you're halfway to taking the food court project
46:13well done
46:15well done, Gina
46:15Alex, remember when you trashed Snow for using garbage ingredients
46:20this time, I'm gonna wipe the floor with you and show you how wrong you were
46:25we need top quality ingredients for this project or-
46:30I got it
46:31no, you've reminded me of something
46:33besides the apprentice of culinary grower
46:35Galax has got his own head chefs
46:37I'm going back
46:39I'll poach them all and leave him with nothing to fight back
46:41once we snag the food court project
46:43I'll get my share, right?
46:46absolutely
46:47you'll get your cut
46:51Alex, I gave you a chance
46:53this is all on you
47:04she blocked me
47:06what, is she a teenager?
47:09boss
47:11we've got a problem
47:12that stupid Steven's been stealing our chefs left and right
47:14we won't have a head chef for the Food City project next week
47:17and word is we're heading for bankruptcy
47:19of all the times for Ira to throw a fit
47:23get on it
47:24find us a new chef before the bidding meeting
47:32hot off the press
47:34KL's group's top chef
47:36have flocked over to Steven Snow group
47:39leaving little doubt about who will win next week's Food City project
47:43could this be the beginning of the end for KL group?
47:46oh, man, Alex is in trouble
47:49so what? he has Gina now, doesn't he?
47:53yeah, I guess
47:54Alex has yesterday's news
47:55I'm gonna go cook
47:57is it really that bad?
48:03are you thinking about helping Alex?
48:05no
48:10after the judges voting
48:12the finalists for the Food City bidding competition are
48:15KL group and
48:17Snow group
48:21alright folks, it's time for round 2
48:24where we invite our star, Michelin-starred chefs to the plate
48:28to create their magnum opuses
48:30let's get things started with Snow group
48:32please, give her a warm welcome folks
48:36applause
48:42Gina
48:45Gina
48:45didn't expect this, did you, Alex?
48:48Gina's been on my side the entire time
48:51all that talk of you two getting back together
48:53just a little trick to separate you from your precious apprentice
48:59Alex, I gave you a chance
49:03when you told everybody that my company uses inferior ingredients
49:07I swore I was going to bring you down
49:10your character is just like your ingredients
49:14rotten on the inside and out
49:17keep talking tough, Alex
49:18but where are you now?
49:21no head chef
49:22no culinary genius
49:24I'm going to snatch that project
49:26you've been drooling over
49:28and then
49:28I'm going to watch KL group crumble
49:34ladies and gentlemen
49:35now we have the lovely
49:37Ms. Gina ready to present her dish
49:39KL group
49:40it's your turn to step up
49:44what's going on?
49:45why is there nobody on Alex's side?
49:46it looks like they're ready to wave the white flag
49:49folks, we're now
49:50we want to call the chef
49:52look at the little bear over here
49:54just go ahead and throw in the towel Alex
49:56even if you squeak by the first round
49:58you've got no one for the second
50:04she's got me all wrong
50:05and I don't think she's coming back
50:07this misunderstanding is too deep
50:10since we have no one from KL group to compete
50:13I hereby announce that the winner is
50:16Snow!
50:17wait a minute!
50:21Alex!
50:22I'm back!
50:27what's the score?
50:28we're toast
50:30I thought Gina was your ace
50:31guess she's not cutting it, huh?
50:34it's not like that with her and me
50:35and Gina's representing Steven in this competition
50:37so your little reunion didn't go as planned?
50:41Ira, nothing happened with her
50:43I will represent the KL group
50:45I'll take Gina on myself
50:49aren't we expecting to see Michelin starred chefs on stage?
50:52are you really in that league?
50:54no, I'm not
50:56how can she compete when she doesn't have any credentials?
50:59especially against Gina, I mean
51:00she has royal chef status
51:04royal chef? never heard of it
51:06I was trained by the culinary guru though, if that means anything
51:12look at the culinary guru hasn't been around for ages
51:15and besides, Gina, she trained with the sea guru Robert
51:18she said she trained with them? I mean, what?
51:22wait, you're the culinary guru's apprentice?
51:28so, Steven stole all of Alex's chefs
51:32well, I may not be Michelin star status
51:34but I have what it takes to represent the KL group
51:37why do you think you can represent KL?
51:40because I'm his wife, that's why
51:44Ira, you're a life saver
51:48let's see what you cook up
51:51I'll give it a try and we'll see who takes the crown
51:55and who are you, old man?
51:58what makes you think you're in charge here?
52:00he's Alan Ducasse, president of the DuPont group
52:03the project's big cheese
52:08oh, he's definitely the one with the final say
52:13sir, this is the dish from Snoke
52:19rich and aromatic
52:21like you're basking in a warm Mediterranean sun
52:26I created this with the combined efforts of three top chefs
52:31so good luck beating that, Ira
52:33you may be the culinary guru's apprentice
52:35but that doesn't mean that you can outshine the work of four of us combined
52:44seriously, you think you compete with something so simple and rough
52:49this is what the culinary guru's apprentice comes up with?
52:53it's so inelegant
52:55you don't understand
52:56a chef who can't cook with pure ingredients will never make the best food
53:03Ira's right, a chef who relies only on spices is a one trick pony
53:07I'd rather just drink my protein shakes
53:21what's up with Alan, why isn't he saying anything?
53:24do you think the stuff is that bad?
53:26it must be terrible
53:27Mr. Alan's in tears
53:28no one asked your opinion
53:30Mr. Alan, how does it taste?
53:36my dream since I was young was to taste the best food in the world
53:40I never guessed I would do it today
53:44I've waited 30 years for this dish
53:47I declare the KL group, led by Alex, winner
53:51this isn't fair!
53:53I use the best, most expensive ingredients for my dish
53:56how can plain scrambled eggs beat that?
53:59if all they care about is chasing fancy and extravagant
54:02that is not what the project needs
54:04Snow group
54:06doesn't cut it
54:07just wait Alex, I'm gonna make you pay
54:12Ira, you crushed it
54:14Food City project is ours
54:15I told you I could do it
54:17Ms. Ira, I have to know
54:20what were you thinking
