00:00:02French Shannon Tartar! Only $5! Want to try one?
00:00:07Ma'am, you need to see this. The 2026 Golden Fork competition kicks off any minute now.
00:00:12Boss Liga and Chef Hugo still can't taste the thing. I don't know how we're going to get through this.
00:00:17Calm down, Zach. I built the Heinz Group from the ground up. It's not going down under my watch.
00:00:22Activate the emergency protocol. Bring in the top two, Chef. Now!
00:00:26French Shannon Tartar! Only $5!
00:00:28Hold on. What is that incredible smell?
00:00:32French Shannon Tartar!
00:00:35Sweetheart, where are your parents?
00:00:37My mom is sick. I'm looking to save her.
00:00:41Mom!
00:00:43Shh, it's okay, sweetheart. Don't cry. I have something for you.
00:00:48I need you to find your father, Leon. Okay?
00:00:54A liver transplant costs over a million. You can't pay that.
00:00:58I'll make money the way mommy taught me. I'll save her on my house.
00:01:03I'll take everything this little chef made.
00:01:07Thank you, ma'am.
00:01:13My god. Crispy, silky, perfectly balanced. I've never tasted salmon truffle tartare this good.
00:01:20This is my mission in love of cracked. Sweetheart, I'll pay you a million dollars.
00:01:25He, the head chef for Heinz Group, and represent Rene in the Golden Fork competition.
00:01:30Rene? That competition?
00:01:57I'm sorry.
00:02:00This is flat.
00:02:02Jack, has anyone heard anything from Master Rene? Anything at all?
00:02:10Son?
00:02:12Meet your new head chef, Catherine.
00:02:17You and Hugo can take a breather.
00:02:19Catherine, this is my son, Leon.
00:02:24Hi, Leon. You're super handsome. Want to be my dad?
00:02:32Why does this kid feel familiar?
00:02:36Bob, seriously? The kid is head chef?
00:02:41I can totally do it. How about you try my food first, then decide.
00:02:50Hey, kid. This kitchen isn't your playground. Boss, choose me. I'm the one who can actually run this place.
00:02:58Okay, Grace, fine. If you can pull up an Uni Ice Cream Moose, you can have your pet as all
00:03:03yours.
00:03:03Of course. I'll nail it.
00:03:05Don't get too cocky, okay?
00:03:07Uni with a moose base is a minefield. One wrong move and it'll taste like a tide pool.
00:03:13I can do this.
00:03:19Hand lift. Delete level control.
00:03:28Boss, am I head chef material now?
00:03:31She tripled the volume. Bigger body, cleaner flavors. Classic Michelin technique.
00:03:36I will say, Grace, you did a pretty solid job. I was-
00:03:39Excuse me.
00:03:44I can do it way better.
00:03:51Listen, little kid. You don't look like you've ever even been in a kitchen.
00:03:54Let alone seen anything that's not on the $1 menu at Burger King.
00:03:58And you think you can whip a moose? Please.
00:04:04Of course I can.
00:04:06In this kitchen, only one person has won the Golden Fork three times in a row. Me.
00:04:13And I say that Katherine has the talent.
00:04:17Anyone want to challenge that?
00:04:27Boss, come on! She can't even reach the countertop.
00:04:30Katherine, we have some extra uni and cream. Show us what you got.
00:04:36Grandma's got one, please. I need to shut.
00:04:51Grandma's got one, please. I need to shut.
00:04:54All done. Perfectly whipped.
00:04:57That's five times expansion uni ice cream mousse. How is this possible? This is Renee-level technique.
00:05:04Sweetheart, this is incredible. Didn't I tell you? You've already outcooked half the chefs here.
00:05:11This is impossible. How does a little brat know the secret to high volume whipping?
00:05:17Oh, Grace, let's be honest. If you can't even handle a mousse, how do you keep a straight face and
00:05:23tell people you're the head chef when a six-year-old just outcooked you?
00:05:33Bad news. VP James from the Mason Group just showed up with an entire entourage.
00:05:38Of course he did. They're probably here for the Golden Fork competition.
00:05:57Leon, on behalf of Mason Group, I challenge Heinz. The winner will get a Golden Fork competition slot.
00:06:05No, James. You're not welcome here. Get out.
00:06:08What's wrong? Backing out already? We both know that you can't beat us.
00:06:12Here, let me help you with tomorrow's headline. Heinz crumbles. Leon begs for mercy.
00:06:19We've always let our craft speak for us. Fine. Leon Heinz, accept your challenge.
00:06:24Deal. And now, please welcome the world's top tasting authority, Mr. Harrods, head of the legendary Harrods culinary dynasty.
00:06:40No one matches his credentials. If he says the dish is good, it's gospel.
00:06:44And he's brutally picky. If we send a poor kid out there, we're doomed.
00:06:51Oh, by the way, Leon, I heard you and Chef Hugo lost your sense of taste. Running out of chefs,
00:06:57are we?
00:06:58James, you bastard. I knew it wasn't a coincidence. You had someone tamper with our food.
00:07:03No, not here. All right, not on our turf. We're not walking out of here with the wind.
00:07:07Boss, let me represent Heinz against Terry.
00:07:10Are you sure about this, Grace? Even I can only go toe-toe with Terry at best.
00:07:14A chef who's never earned a single Michelin star versus Terry. The guy who has won three Michelin three stars.
00:07:22We'd be better off letting Catherine...
00:07:23I'll do it!
00:07:30So this is it, Leon? Heinz is so desperate that you're going to let a child cook for you?
00:07:37Move, you little street rat!
00:07:39Honestly, no manners.
00:07:42Don't you ever lay a hand on my chef?
00:07:44Oh, please. If I beat a kid, there's no glory of that. This is pathetic.
00:07:49Boss, we're really letting a kid handle something this big?
00:07:52Renee's hanging on by one Michelin star. One wrong move, and our whole reputation goes down the drain.
00:07:58Leon, he planned this. Poisoning our food to destroy our taste? It's all part of their scheme to take down
00:08:03Heinz.
00:08:04The only chef here whose talent surpasses all of yours is Catherine.
00:08:09If you're also capable, then tell me, who will face Terry?
00:08:13She's six years old. A dish made by a little brat can't possibly hold up.
00:08:17You'll never know how a dish tastes until you actually cook it.
00:08:22Renee said the exact same thing.
00:08:27Are you sure this flavor pattern will work?
00:08:31You'll never know how a dish tastes until you actually cook it.
00:08:35Why does every instinct in me say Catherine will win?
00:08:39All right, Catherine. You're up.
00:08:42Boss, seriously? You can't be choosing her. I do not approve.
00:08:49So, if I'm the head chef, how much are you gonna pay me?
00:08:54Unbelievable! How can she be this money hungry? Who raised this little brat?
00:09:00If you win, you get this number.
00:09:02Five thousand?
00:09:06Five million. Annual salary. And I wired you in advance.
00:09:10One, two, three, four, five. Five million! I can save my mommy! She's gonna be okay!
00:09:18Of course. She grew up poor. No wonder she can only talk about the money.
00:09:24Catherine, how is your mother? Is she doing any better?
00:09:29Mommy! I got money now. I'm gonna fix you. You're gonna be okay.
00:09:35Sweetheart, are you alright? Are you safe?
00:09:38I'm okay, Mom. I just... I wish you were here.
00:09:42No. That voice. Her mother can't be Renee. My Renee?
00:09:50Ladies and gentlemen, the match begins now!
00:09:53The loser will forfeit their place in the 2026 Golden Fork Competition!
00:09:59For today's challenge, your appetizer must be built around white truffle.
00:10:04White truffle? That's one of the hardest ingredients to take.
00:10:08It needs seafood to anchor the flavor, otherwise the aroma collapses instantly.
00:10:12Good lord. Alaska red king crab. One of those goes for a million.
00:10:17Maison isn't even trying to hide it. They're here to crush us.
00:10:23One minute. He broke down a king crab in one minute.
00:10:28High-end ingredients? And a nine-star chef? We're doomed!
00:10:41Are you hurt? If you can't keep going, it's fine. Just stop.
00:10:45No, I'm fine. And they will win.
00:10:48White truffle is Terry's signature. Carefully on.
00:10:52World might think Maison group is bullying a child.
00:10:54Why do you grown-ups get to decide what I can and cannot do?
00:10:58Listen, little brat. Hines is embarrassing itself enough already.
00:11:02Step aside and let someone competent take over.
00:11:05What are you gonna cook, huh?
00:11:07You pocket-sized little...
00:11:09Then let's bet.
00:11:12If I lose, I'll walk away from here forever.
00:11:15And if I win, you all call me Chef Catboy.
00:11:22Fine. You think I'm afraid of a little kitchen brat?
00:11:32Wait, is she trying to make...
00:11:39She's butchering white truffle like that. Do they know how expensive it is?
00:11:44Okay. Hines group is done. Absolutely finished.
00:11:49Little brat. This is a competition, not your kindergarten art project.
00:11:54Boss, make her stop. Let me take over before we embarrass ourselves to death.
00:12:00No substitutions make competition. Everyone abides by the rules.
00:12:04Cat. Sweetheart. Are you sure about this?
00:12:08But Jenna, believe in me. You're my biggest fan, remember?
00:12:14Do you want some advice? Surrender now.
00:12:17That way your humiliation can stay local instead of going global.
00:12:21I said this would happen. Why is nobody listening to me?
00:12:26Mr. Harris, my dish is ready.
00:12:43The pairings, superb. Layers of the sweetness, grown with death.
00:12:48This is undeniably the finest Alaska Red King crab I've ever tasted.
00:12:55Game over, Leon.
00:12:57We're doomed. Completely doomed.
00:13:00And all because of that little...
00:13:02If I had lost my sense of taste, we'd never be in this mess.
00:13:05Well then, Mr. Harris, go ahead and announce the winner.
00:13:09Move it. Stop.
00:13:11Hold it. Stop.
00:13:14What now?
00:13:15You really think a little brat like you can pull out a miracle?
00:13:18I wasn't done yet.
00:13:20Please wait just one more second.
00:13:26I believe in Catherine.
00:13:28Hold on. Let her finish.
00:13:30For fairness, the timer hasn't expired. We'll wait for Catherine.
00:13:33Okay. Now I'm done.
00:13:44Are you serious? You didn't even open it.
00:13:47Are you trying to fool us, kid?
00:13:48Nice job, Leon. Dragging in a little street rat and then pretending she's the next Master Renee.
00:13:54Get real.
00:13:55I didn't hurt her, but that's my mother.
00:13:57Mr. Harris, let's stop wasting time.
00:14:01Are you sure you don't want to open it?
00:14:04A competition is a competition. We judge what is presented.
00:14:20No. No way. This. This resembles.
00:14:31The bubbles and pearls are all white truffle. You can eat every single one.
00:14:39How did she get them this exact, this delicate, this real?
00:14:43Now this is what a true white truffle dish looks like.
00:14:49This truffle flavor. Magnificent.
00:14:51I'm honestly at a loss for words.
00:14:53No, no. It's impossible.
00:14:55White truffle is fragile.
00:14:58It's too soft to manipulate like this.
00:15:00And kids shouldn't even be capable of this.
00:15:01I named it Truffle Pearl and Ocean Mix.
00:15:05She used liquid nitrogen to cool the truffle cream, creating a perfect truffle sphere.
00:15:09It looks like a real pearl because it has crafted like one.
00:15:13No way.
00:15:15Just a child.
00:15:16Look at the luster. Heavy pearl translucent.
00:15:20Textured. Flawless.
00:15:22This is extraordinary.
00:15:24Wait. This looks exactly like...
00:15:29Renee's signature dish.
00:15:31The legend? Renee?
00:15:33This technique. This vision.
00:15:35Only Renee ever created something like this.
00:15:37Catherine, who are you?
00:15:38No one.
00:15:39No one can turn white truffle into pearls and make them taste good.
00:15:44You must have cheated.
00:15:46I supervised every second.
00:15:48Cheating is impossible.
00:15:50Which means the winner is...
00:15:55Catherine.
00:16:04I won.
00:16:05So now you have to call me Chef Catherine.
00:16:07Remember?
00:16:08But I...
00:16:10Grace.
00:16:11You're the soup chef.
00:16:12A bet's a bet.
00:16:13You know what to do.
00:16:16Welcome, Chef Catherine.
00:16:19My pleasure.
00:16:20I refuse to accept this.
00:16:22I'm a Michelin star chef.
00:16:24Useless.
00:16:25Shut up.
00:16:26I paid you and you let some little bastard outperform you?
00:16:31Get lost.
00:16:33Leon, this is not over.
00:16:37I demand a second round.
00:16:39Catherine already beat your head chef.
00:16:41The competition is over.
00:16:43Who said the contest is only one round?
00:16:46Unless you're too scared to continue and want to forfeit.
00:16:52You shameless snake!
00:16:54Your head chef can't even out cook, Catherine.
00:16:57And you're still here bluffing.
00:16:59Let's be real.
00:17:00We haven't even touched the main course.
00:17:02A single appetizer crowns no real chef.
00:17:05Right, Mr. Harrods?
00:17:07Indeed.
00:17:08Appetizers showcase creativity.
00:17:10But the actual culinary hierarchy is in the main dish.
00:17:14Okay, then.
00:17:15If it's a main dish, I'm game.
00:17:17Oh, stop it.
00:17:19One chef, Catherine, and you think you're Gordon Ramsay Jr.?
00:17:23Main dishes require precision, timing, flavors, layered, textured, protein.
00:17:30This is advanced territory.
00:17:32If you're backing out, we'll log that in as an official forfeit.
00:17:35No one's forfeiting anything.
00:17:37Alright, we're in.
00:17:38Catherine, keep going.
00:17:40Leon, let me take this one.
00:17:41Even taste blind, I can still cook.
00:17:44And I'm the sous chef.
00:17:46Obviously, I rank higher than a kindergartner.
00:17:48She won the first round.
00:17:50Alright, she stays in.
00:17:52Ladies and gentlemen, for round two, allow me to present the legendary Master Renee's-
00:18:03Master Renee's most prized protégé.
00:18:07The one whose skills are on her level.
00:18:10Master Ruby!
00:18:17What?
00:18:18Mom's top protégé?
00:18:20We've searched the corners of the world for Renee.
00:18:23How did we not know she had a protégé?
00:18:25Master Renee wasn't just the best female chef in the country.
00:18:28She was a global icon.
00:18:31If Ruby inherits those culinary secrets, we're cooked.
00:18:36Wait, since when did Mom have a protégé?
00:18:39I'm my mom's best student.
00:18:42We're talking about Master Renee.
00:18:45Nobody even knows who your mom is.
00:18:47If Ruby really is Master Renee's protégé, then there's no chance we can win this at all.
00:18:52Well, are we competing or what?
00:18:54So tell me, which one of you is dying to get humiliated first?
00:18:58Me!
00:19:01You, you little kid?
00:19:03Aren't you scared?
00:19:04Scared of what, you?
00:19:07Please!
00:19:08You're not even the real thing!
00:19:10You're a knock-off!
00:19:11You're a fake!
00:19:14She called her a fake?!
00:19:18What did you just say, kid?!
00:19:21Sweetheart, are you saying Ruby isn't Renee's protégé?
00:19:25Nonsense.
00:19:25What would a pint-sized rat know about anything?
00:19:28Where did this little stray even crawl out from anyway?
00:19:31You question Master Ruby again, and I'll teach you some manners!
00:19:35Don't confuse age with authority.
00:19:37Don't confuse size with fear.
00:19:40You don't scare me.
00:19:42You!
00:19:43You!
00:19:44You!
00:19:4820 minutes.
00:19:49Your main dish challenge.
00:19:51B, let the round begin!
00:19:54The control?
00:19:56The nest!
00:19:57This cat isn't even gonna have a leak.
00:20:00Oh!
00:20:01That's the perfect pan flip!
00:20:03Master Ruby's signature move!
00:20:08So Ruby really is!
00:20:10Told ya!
00:20:10Mind blown yet?
00:20:12Perfect breathing.
00:20:13The ideal attempt to push garlic to its aromatic peak without burning it.
00:20:17That's impossible!
00:20:18I've never seen such precision!
00:20:21Ruby operates at a level that you all can't even dream of.
00:20:25Face it, Leon!
00:20:26You!
00:20:26Your staff!
00:20:27Your whole sad little restaurant!
00:20:29You're not Golden Fork material!
00:20:31Save yourself the humiliation and tap out now!
00:20:36If we lose the slot, we're totally finished!
00:20:41Cat, you're our last shot.
00:20:43Okay, right now, every hope I have is on you.
00:20:53The End
00:20:53Seriously, Cat?
00:20:54This is a championship!
00:20:56Not your toy kitchen at home!
00:20:58What is this kid doing?
00:21:00Ha!
00:21:01Keep it up!
00:21:01Because she is going to single-handedly bankrupt the entire Heinz group!
00:21:05Ha!
00:21:06Ha!
00:21:07Ha!
00:21:09Her side dishes.
00:21:11Oddly similar to Ruby's.
00:21:13What?
00:21:14Cat!
00:21:15What are you thinking?
00:21:16Don't tell me that you're actually trying to make Master Rene's golden beef!
00:21:21Copying the golden beef?
00:21:24Seriously, Cat!
00:21:25You have no backbone at all!
00:21:28Ruby's technique is flawless!
00:21:30Our steak is almost done!
00:21:32Yum!
00:21:33And our...
00:21:35Chef Cat is...
00:21:37What?
00:21:38Making candy beef stew?
00:21:40This is a competition!
00:21:43Ruby is cooking authentic golden beef!
00:21:46I love sweets!
00:21:48Who doesn't?
00:21:51Cat!
00:21:52Are you sabotaging us?
00:21:54Who throws candy into a main dish?
00:21:56I still can't believe you put this little rat against Master Ruby.
00:22:00What a joke!
00:22:02Nobody is more qualified than me.
00:22:05Because I am the only one that can make the real golden beef.
00:22:12This is ridiculous!
00:22:13If you screw this up, Cat, you won't just tank Rene's restaurant.
00:22:18You'll nuke Heinz Group's stock and shut down trading!
00:22:22Can you carry that on your tiny shoulders?
00:22:24Or s-stocks?
00:22:26No idea what it is.
00:22:27But I do know you're talking way too loud.
00:22:30You're messing up my vibe.
00:22:32You're not even cooking steak properly!
00:22:35Sir, we have Michelin chefs on payroll.
00:22:38And you're betting everything on this little-
00:22:40No justifications!
00:22:42Okay, I trust her, period.
00:22:44Zoom in.
00:22:45Here's tomorrow's front page.
00:22:48Heinz Group wipes out.
00:22:50CEO bets on Child Chef.
00:22:57Mr. Harris?
00:22:58My dish is ready.
00:23:05Oh, that's my girl!
00:23:07Perfect!
00:23:08Clock's ticking.
00:23:09If Cat isn't ready, that's an automatic loss.
00:23:13Catherine, if you cannot present on time, you forfeit the round.
00:23:22Oh, come on!
00:23:24Is she cooking here or is she trying to stage an accident?
00:23:29I'm done, Mr. Harris!
00:23:31Please, enjoy!
00:23:32Bring both dishes forward.
00:23:33We open them simultaneously.
00:23:38We open them up.
00:23:39We open them up.
00:23:43We open them up.
00:23:45We open them up.
00:23:47We open them up.
00:23:52We open them up.
00:23:52So this is the legendary golden beef.
00:23:56The aroma, extraordinary.
00:23:58The crust, like molten gold.
00:24:01Ladies and gentlemen, this is what Pedigree looks like.
00:24:05Ruby darling, you were practically born winning.
00:24:13Oh, good God!
00:24:15The textures.
00:24:17The umami layers.
00:24:18I've reviewed Michelin Temple for years.
00:24:20And this might be the closest thing to edible divinity I've ever tasted.
00:24:25I've traded my monocle cliffside villa for a second plate again.
00:24:29No hesitation.
00:24:31With ordinary beef she made this.
00:24:33Her skills really are terrifying.
00:24:36Heinz is doomed.
00:24:38Cat just nuked our future.
00:24:40Leon, why don't you just skip the embarrassment?
00:24:43No need to reveal whatever microwave tragedy your little street rat cooked up.
00:24:48Honestly, Cat should actually stick to unboxing frozen Aldi meals.
00:24:53It's way more her brand.
00:24:57Mr. Harrods.
00:24:58Feel free to crown us.
00:25:00The uh, outcome is obvious.
00:25:03Excuse me?
00:25:04Who said you won?
00:25:06Mr. Harrods hasn't even seen my golden beef.
00:25:09Maybe try looking before you open that giant mouth of yours.
00:25:18Oh. My. God.
00:25:20This is your finished dish?
00:25:22Did you confuse a Michelin restaurant for a kindergarten bake sale?
00:25:27Leon, honestly, how do you show your face running a joke like this?
00:25:32Pathetic.
00:25:33You really thought copying me would magically turn into golden beef?
00:25:38This isn't cooking.
00:25:39This is a cry for help.
00:25:41That's weird.
00:25:43This isn't how it's supposed to turn out.
00:25:47Boss, I told you this little brat was going to tank our reputation.
00:25:52Congrats, kid.
00:25:53You're officially the biggest PR disaster in Heinz history.
00:25:57Relax.
00:25:59Heinz is already halfway to the grave.
00:26:01I'm just here to throw in the final handful of dirt.
00:26:04Madam, I'm sorry.
00:26:06If not for my failing taste buds, Heinz wouldn't be in ruins.
00:26:12You.
00:26:13You owe us everything you just destroyed.
00:26:16Honestly, save yourself the embarrassment.
00:26:19Come join the mazen group.
00:26:20And all you have to do is kiss the bottom of my shoe.
00:26:23And I'll consider hiring you.
00:26:25Maybe.
00:26:32You really shouldn't celebrate yet.
00:26:34Mr. Heritage hasn't even seen my golden beef.
00:26:55The legendary golden lion exists.
00:27:00The legends were true.
00:27:04The legendary golden lion exists.
00:27:07A lion response to the aroma of golden beef.
00:27:11This is Master Renee's Lord's signature dish.
00:27:14The one that vanished years ago.
00:27:18There's no way a six year old could pull that off.
00:27:22This is witchcraft.
00:27:25Witchcraft, Grace, come on.
00:27:28I told you.
00:27:29I'm the only one that can recreate Master Renee's signature dish.
00:27:34Liar.
00:27:35A lion would never respond to your cooking.
00:27:37The golden beef is mine.
00:27:39I'm the one and only protege of Master Renee.
00:27:43Stop lying.
00:27:44You should be ashamed.
00:27:46Yeah.
00:27:47Whatever you cooked earlier,
00:27:48even the raccoon outside our dumpster would have turned that down.
00:27:52Mr. Harrods, save your tongue.
00:27:55Let's just wrap this up in crown ruby.
00:27:58Hines has embarrassed itself enough for one day.
00:28:01You grown ups are seriously shameless.
00:28:04Oh, you want attitude.
00:28:06Well, let's see how long it lasts once I taste your so-called golden beef.
00:28:22James?
00:28:23Hello?
00:28:25Say something.
00:28:27Harrods, you take a bite.
00:28:38This...
00:28:39This can't be real.
00:28:41He's speechless because it's disgusting.
00:28:44You should just surrender now, kid.
00:28:46Yes, Mr. Harrods.
00:28:47Don't protect her.
00:28:50It's...
00:28:51Phenomenal!
00:28:53My god.
00:28:55This is truly crafted by human hands.
00:28:58It tastes like the gates of heaven just opened up for me.
00:29:02Told you!
00:29:03She's another!
00:29:05Boss, don't listen to her.
00:29:07I'll taste it myself.
00:29:13No.
00:29:15No way.
00:29:16There's no way a kid made this.
00:29:19The verdict is clear.
00:29:21Catherine's Dish is the true successor to Master Renee's signature golden beef.
00:29:26And the winner is...
00:29:32Catherine!
00:29:40We did it!
00:29:42Grenade Restaurant is saved!
00:29:48That was incredible.
00:29:51Now where's my five million?
00:29:56There's five million on this card?
00:29:58It's all yours.
00:29:59Spend on whatever you want.
00:30:01Thank you!
00:30:02Thank you, Daddy Leon!
00:30:04You're the best!
00:30:09Oh, yeah.
00:30:10James.
00:30:11You bring a fake chef and pass her off as Master Renee's protege?
00:30:15Shame on you.
00:30:17Dammit!
00:30:18You!
00:30:19You think you can play me like this?
00:30:21You lying piece of trash!
00:30:25Sarah, please!
00:30:25I'm sorry!
00:30:26Give me one more chance!
00:30:27I'll do anything!
00:30:29Hey!
00:30:30Take her out of my sight!
00:30:32And break every tendon in her hands!
00:30:36No!
00:30:36Please!
00:30:37More reminder, James.
00:30:39It's time to honor your wages.
00:30:41Who the hell told you to take photographs and delete it?
00:30:45Here.
00:30:49Ten million.
00:30:52And nobody, and I mean nobody, will leak what happened here today.
00:30:59And as for the golden fork, I'll get in my own way.
00:31:03Still cheating your way through life, huh?
00:31:05That's fine.
00:31:06We'll beat you any place, anywhere.
00:31:08Get ready.
00:31:08Because next time, I am bringing in a real Master Chef.
00:31:13Let's see how your little bastard survives that!
00:31:22Where's Catherine?
00:31:23She took your black cart and ran out the door.
00:31:25She said she was going to the hospital to save her mom.
00:31:29Master Carter, on behalf of Maze and Dining Group,
00:31:32I'm inviting you to represent us in the 2026 Golden Fork Competition.
00:31:43Now, about this kid, Catherine, she reminds me a lot of Renee back in the day.
00:31:50If she rises, your throne could get a little shaky.
00:31:54Renee.
00:31:55She was brilliant, but she still lost to me.
00:31:58And a kid with sticky fingers and zero discipline won't even qualify as competition.
00:32:03But she recreated Renee's signature dish, and she...
00:32:07Enough.
00:32:08Renee was a student.
00:32:10If Renee herself walked in here with the kid holding her apron, they'd never beat me.
00:32:14Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:32:17Right.
00:32:19Renee has had her moment, but now she's all burnt out.
00:32:23Rumor has it, she can't even cook anymore.
00:32:26That was her own downfall.
00:32:28As for this competition, you give me enough money, I'll make sure the stage stays mine.
00:32:40Renee, your liver transplant can't wait any longer.
00:32:44If we delay, the window closes and recovery gets harder.
00:32:47Much harder.
00:32:49I know, I know.
00:32:51Thank you, Tina.
00:32:53Mom!
00:32:56I got the money.
00:32:57We can start your surgery right away.
00:32:59And guess what?
00:33:00I found Dad.
00:33:03Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, sweetheart.
00:33:04Slow down.
00:33:06Tell Mommy, how did you find Dad?
00:33:07Mom, I saw him.
00:33:08For real.
00:33:09And he's super handsome.
00:33:11His name is Leon.
00:33:12His restaurant is literally called Renee.
00:33:16So he has to be my dad.
00:33:20I used my name.
00:33:21Could it really be him?
00:33:23I mean, but Renee, it's not that rare Renee made it.
00:33:27It could just be a coincidence.
00:33:31Could it?
00:33:38Leon, I'm so sorry.
00:33:40I lost to Carter.
00:33:41My hands.
00:33:42I can't cook anymore.
00:33:44You deserve a partner who can stand beside you.
00:33:46Not someone who drags your restaurant down.
00:33:49Why would Cat run to the hospital alone?
00:33:51Why wouldn't she call us?
00:33:55We're so into.
00:33:58Zack, step on it.
00:33:59Now!
00:34:04Mommy!
00:34:07Somebody help my mom!
00:34:09She can't breathe!
00:34:11Please!
00:34:15We need two of six.
00:34:17Female 28.
00:34:18As VO2 is tanking.
00:34:19Acute hepatitis failure.
00:34:21We're out of time.
00:34:22We've got to go now.
00:34:27It's okay, Mom.
00:34:28I'm right here.
00:34:29You're not alone.
00:34:31I know.
00:34:34It's critical.
00:34:35We need water to surround you right now.
00:34:39Catherine!
00:34:48Daddy!
00:34:49Tell her what happened.
00:34:51Mom, it's okay, sweetheart.
00:34:52It's okay.
00:34:53Daddy, you have to save Mommy.
00:34:55She can't breathe.
00:34:58She's critical.
00:34:59We have to get her to surgery now.
00:35:00Please.
00:35:01Do whatever you can to get her to surgery immediately.
00:35:05Okay?
00:35:08Yes, you.
00:35:08I've been searching for you for six years.
00:35:14Now your hands will happen.
00:35:15We need to move.
00:35:16Now.
00:35:16Please do whatever you can to save her.
00:35:33The surgery went smoothly.
00:35:35She's stable now.
00:35:36No talking.
00:35:37You need to rest.
00:35:40From this moment on, we stay together.
00:35:43Okay?
00:35:43No more running.
00:35:44No more losing each other.
00:35:45We're a family.
00:35:47I'll never let it go of you again.
00:35:52Hey.
00:35:54Time for a second dose.
00:36:07Renee, I think it's time that you told me what really happened six years ago.
00:36:13It was the final round of the golden fork.
00:36:16It was just Carter and me.
00:36:18And his assistant accidentally poured a pot of boiling oil.
00:36:23And my entire station went into flames.
00:36:25My hands burned so badly that I never thought I'd be able to cook again.
00:36:30Accidentally.
00:36:31Now Carter plays dirty.
00:36:33He always has.
00:36:34Of course he tried to sabotage the only chef who could beat him.
00:36:37Well, a chef without her hands is nothing.
00:36:42And I couldn't drag you into it, so I just left.
00:36:45Renee, you've never been a burden to me.
00:36:48Losing you was, but you're here now.
00:36:50You and Catherine.
00:36:51And I'm never letting go of either of you again.
00:36:56Boss. Urgent.
00:36:57James and Carter just held a joint press conference.
00:37:00Carter will represent the amazing group in the 2026 golden fork competition.
00:37:10That's the bad guy who hurt mommy!
00:37:12I'll beat him myself!
00:37:14Okay, it's okay.
00:37:14It's okay.
00:37:15He kept us apart for six years.
00:37:17He's gonna pay for every second of it.
00:37:27Finally!
00:37:28A dinner with mommy and daddy!
00:37:30I'm the luckiest kid ever!
00:37:40I can't taste anything!
00:37:44What?
00:37:47Mommy?
00:37:48Daddy?
00:37:49I think I lost my taste.
00:37:56James sent rats into my house.
00:38:02Sarah!
00:38:05You poisoned my daughter?
00:38:06No, sir.
00:38:07I didn't.
00:38:08I would never do anything like that.
00:38:10Save the lies!
00:38:14The last dish I had before I lost my taste came from you and Hugo.
00:38:18You not only betrayed me, but you sabotaged my entire kitchen.
00:38:21James forced me to!
00:38:23He said it was a special flavor and answer.
00:38:25I needed the money!
00:38:26Please, Mr. Hines!
00:38:27I would never do anything like that!
00:38:29I would never do anything like that!
00:38:31Out!
00:38:31Go!
00:38:37Yo, who's calling?
00:38:38Shut your damn mouth.
00:38:40You talking to my daughter?
00:38:41You fed her poison?
00:38:42Criminal.
00:38:44So, the little bastard lost her taste too!
00:38:47Great!
00:38:48Your maid did excellent work!
00:38:49Now tell me, who's cooking for you now?
00:38:52You're done!
00:38:54Daddy!
00:38:54Mommy!
00:38:55What can you do?
00:38:56Dory!
00:38:57I'm back on my feet now.
00:38:59And I promise I'm going to take care of you.
00:39:02I'm going to take care of this whole family.
00:39:05I will win.
00:39:07I have to.
00:39:19Look around.
00:39:21This place is crawling with world class chefs.
00:39:23And we're really letting a little brat compete again?
00:39:27Why not?
00:39:28Half the chefs here can't even hold a candle to Kat.
00:39:40So, where's your tiny prodigy, Leon?
00:39:44Oh, wait.
00:39:46She's not coming, right?
00:39:47That's none of your business.
00:39:49James, maybe worry about your own chefs first.
00:39:52Kat beat every expensive master you hired.
00:39:56I was tricked last time.
00:39:58This round, totally different.
00:40:00I said we'd win, but that hasn't changed.
00:40:03Leon, you just don't get it, do you?
00:40:23Master Carter?
00:40:24Oh, God.
00:40:25Master Carter's the reigning champion.
00:40:27But Rene gone, he's basically the undisputed number one.
00:40:30Now, who's cooking for you, Leon?
00:40:33Is it the taste-blind chef or the 70-year-old grandma?
00:40:40Watch your mess.
00:40:44With Carter here, Top Chef has basically already decided.
00:40:48Rene lost to him once in her final match.
00:40:50Rene was way stronger.
00:40:51Everybody knows Carter and plays dirty.
00:40:53Like I said, Top Chef and Top Restaurant.
00:40:57Both are mine this year.
00:41:00Why don't you two do yourselves a favor?
00:41:03Walk out now.
00:41:05Carter has sabotaged more chefs than I can count.
00:41:08His poisoning entire industry should have been banned years ago.
00:41:11Cooking isn't just about skill.
00:41:13It's about influence.
00:41:14Who eats your food?
00:41:16My clients include presidents and heads of state.
00:41:19Even the president books, three months ahead.
00:41:21You think you could beat me?
00:41:23Ridiculous.
00:41:24Celebrate too early.
00:41:45You.
00:41:46What are you doing here?
00:41:50Your hands.
00:41:52That's impossible.
00:41:53They were destroyed.
00:41:54Then maybe you underestimated what I'm capable of.
00:42:08No, your hands, they shouldn't even be functioning.
00:42:11And yet here I am, fully healed and fully ready.
00:42:14And this time, Carter, you're not going to lay a single trap.
00:42:17Trap or no trap, I'd break you either way.
00:42:20Look at this lineup.
00:42:21We have the comeback has-been or the pint-sized wannabe.
00:42:25Hey, do you two really think that you're championship material?
00:42:29Say one more word.
00:42:30Try me.
00:42:31Relax, Daddy Leon.
00:42:34Since you're so confident, how about we make a little wager?
00:42:38If you lose, you sell Heinz Group to me 30 cents on the dollar.
00:42:43And if you lose every injury, every scar, all the humiliation that you cause, Rene,
00:42:49I'll return to you in tenfold.
00:42:50And this time, Carter, I'm going to finish what I started.
00:42:53Mom, show them a few real legends.
00:43:05Rene, save yourself the humiliation. Walk away while you still can.
00:43:09Intimidation isn't a strategy, Carter. You can always try harder.
00:43:13That signature Rene ego. Let's see if it's aged well or just expired.
00:43:24Welcome to the 2026 Golden Fork competition.
00:43:33Round one theme, Ryujin Lemon. Only the top four chefs move forward.
00:43:42Ryujin Lemon's are a molecular nightmare. If anyone can tame them, it's you, Rene.
00:43:47The stage is built for you. Go own it.
00:43:49Round one, begin!
00:44:03I can't even see his hands. They're moving so fast.
00:44:06This heat is over 200 degrees Celsius. This is the real master.
00:44:12Master Carter is on fire today. I don't think Rene can beat him.
00:44:17Wait, she's doing the same thing. Her hands are moving just as fast.
00:44:22But, but her hands were ruined before. How can she move so fast?
00:44:28That's my wife. Always does the impossible.
00:44:38Carter is done. Final time. 55 minutes.
00:44:45Wow, thank you.
00:44:5255 minutes.
00:44:55Master Carter is in God mode today.
00:44:58The Ryujin Lemon typically takes 8 to 24 hours to make. Finishing in one hour.
00:45:03That's impressive.
00:45:05But can Rene finish in time?
00:45:14Time's up. Mr. Harrods, please.
00:45:17Ha! She finished right on the buzzer. No way that the quality will hold up.
00:45:35Cold. Sour. Sweet. Crisp. Every layer is here.
00:45:39Carter's lemon is textbook excellence.
00:45:44The cut. The color.
00:45:47Pure master class.
00:45:48This is what real Top Chef looks like.
00:45:51If Carter trained me, I'd be unstoppable.
00:46:01Why did he freeze? Is something wrong?
00:46:04Must be a texture problem. Rene rushed too much.
00:46:11Leon, you let your wife cook like that on a global live stream?
00:46:16Cold move.
00:46:17Relax.
00:46:18I remember my six-year-old daughter destroyed half your team.
00:46:26This is art. The curve is natural. The flavor is alive. Every detail is crafted with soul.
00:46:41Both dishes are excellent.
00:46:46But Rene's dish has artistry and balance. Depth and heart. Round winner, Rene.
00:46:57That's my wife, always untouchable. Rene champion! Rene champion!
00:47:02Rene champion! Rene champion!
00:47:06So, the burned hands still work. What a miracle.
00:47:10My hands are fine. It's your ego that needs the ER.
00:47:15You're bold today.
00:47:16No, just honest. And your threats?
00:47:19Your noise.
00:47:21Let's see how long that confidence lasts.
00:47:22Grand finale.
00:47:25Fish, main dish.
00:47:26Three elite judges.
00:47:28Ten points.
00:47:29Max.
00:47:30Hold on.
00:47:31I'm adding a wager.
00:47:33Let's turn this into a death match.
00:47:35Again?
00:47:36Same trick. Same pathetic intimidation.
00:47:39This time I won't back down.
00:47:40I had my daughter, my husband, and my entire group behind me.
00:47:45So go ahead. Drink.
00:47:46If you lose, I'll take your eyes.
00:47:49I'll make sure today's the last time you ever see a kitchen.
00:47:59I knew it!
00:48:01Carter loves these stupid death match rules.
00:48:03And after this, he'll probably crush everyone again.
00:48:07Walk away now. If you want to continue, you better start practicing cook and blind.
00:48:17You're sick.
00:48:18You've ruined this industry for years.
00:48:20Renee, I'll be generous.
00:48:21I'll give you three seconds to decide.
00:48:24You're nothing but a thug.
00:48:25This is straight up extortion.
00:48:27Say it out loud.
00:48:28You're scared.
00:48:29I mean, go on.
00:48:31Quit.
00:48:32You...
00:48:33Three...
00:48:35Two...
00:48:36One.
00:48:38Renee, are you sure you want to continue?
00:48:42Well, what a pity.
00:48:43If someone quits, this year's champion is automatically...
00:48:47Hold on.
00:48:50Who said I'm quitting?
00:48:53Jess.
00:48:54Carter.
00:48:56Carter, I'm not backing down.
00:48:58Not today.
00:48:59Not ever.
00:49:05Renee, are you out of your mind?
00:49:07If you lose to Carter, your career is over as a chef.
00:49:11And what about us?
00:49:13Heinz Group could be bought out at 30% of its value.
00:49:15What do you expect us to do?
00:49:16Post bake sale?
00:49:18Renee, your hand's just healed.
00:49:20Okay, it's fine. If you walk away, no one will blame you.
00:49:23No.
00:49:23Leon, I'm not running away.
00:49:25I'm fighting.
00:49:27For you.
00:49:28For our daughter.
00:49:29And for myself.
00:49:34Heinz Culinary Group stays in.
00:49:38Leon, you're insane.
00:49:40A gambler with no chips left.
00:49:42How entertaining.
00:49:43Let's see how long that pride of yours lasts this time.
00:49:46Austin, please. We can't do this. It's suicide!
00:49:49Enough!
00:49:49Okay, I trust her.
00:49:50Whatever the price, I stand with her.
00:49:54Renee, whatever you choose, I'll be right beside you.
00:50:03Well, well.
00:50:05Renee Parker decides to crawl back into my arena.
00:50:09Still hungry for a death match?
00:50:10Captain Nonsense.
00:50:12Are you competing?
00:50:13Or are you just your bark?
00:50:15Master Renee, is this really your call?
00:50:17Renee, one wrong move and we all go down with you.
00:50:21Let's get the record straight.
00:50:23Back then I was Carter's student.
00:50:24Six years ago, I didn't lose.
00:50:27I was sabotaged.
00:50:29Someone dropped boiling oil all over my station.
00:50:32Accidentally.
00:50:33If not for that, the golden fork would have been mine.
00:50:36Still traumatized.
00:50:37Walk away then.
00:50:39Save yourself.
00:50:39I don't run from cowards.
00:50:41Start the round.
00:50:42You're bold today.
00:50:44Entertaining, but stupid.
00:50:48Final round.
00:50:50Fish.
00:50:50Main dish.
00:50:5135 minutes.
00:50:53Timer starts.
00:50:55Now.
00:51:09They're neck and neck.
00:51:11Incredible.
00:51:11Don't get your hopes up.
00:51:13No one has touched Carter in over a decade.
00:51:15a Thursday night.
00:51:17fiscal 9.
00:51:18$$$$$$$$%%$$$%$."
00:51:33Renee!
00:51:38Emerging bars!
00:51:40Stop the round! Now!
00:51:44You pathetic, talentless rat!
00:51:46You can't win so you maim people!
00:51:48No, please. If she can't control her tools, why is that my problem?
00:51:52Mocking injury? Mid-competition? Is this the circus now?
00:51:56Should I juggle to match the theme?
00:51:59Renee, listen to me. This is a concussion.
00:52:01You cannot continue cooking like this.
00:52:03I'm fine. It's nothing.
00:52:07How does a tenderizer fly off someone's station? At that speed?
00:52:11Because he threw it!
00:52:12Snake can't win without having someone bleed for him.
00:52:18If the impact hit your optic nerve, you could go blind.
00:52:22Renee, one wrong move and your career is over.
00:52:25I'm still seeing.
00:52:28That's all I need.
00:52:40Drop the tough act.
00:52:42One wrong move.
00:52:44That eye goes dark.
00:52:46For good.
00:52:47No more kitchen.
00:52:48No more future.
00:52:49You won't even get to see your daughter's face again.
00:53:06Look at you. Barely standing. This isn't cooking. This is a countdown to your collapse.
00:53:18Keep fighting chef. The universe loves a tragic hero.
00:53:35She can't see straight. She's in real danger.
00:53:38Carter's won this. It's done.
00:53:48You move faster. Come on.
00:53:55I'm finished.
00:53:57Master Carter's dish is complete.
00:54:05Why isn't my heat working? It's warm at the station.
00:54:11No, Renee. You still believe effort beats power. My network runs half of this industry.
00:54:17If I say you lose, you lose.
00:54:28Carter, you shameless bastard.
00:54:38That's it. She's done. No heat. No seer. She's finished.
00:54:43This is sabotage. Carter must have planned every second of this.
00:54:48Four minutes, Renee. You couldn't beat me at your peak. Six years later, you think you could magically win now?
00:54:55Maybe go home. Take care of that kid you love so much.
00:54:59I request an immediate rematch.
00:55:03A rematch? What is this? A playground? She got hurt because she's slow and sloppy. If every chef cried foul,
00:55:11this competition would be a joke.
00:55:13Per the rules, if Master Renee fails to complete her dish, then this year's champion is automatically...
00:55:20She's cooking wild sablefish without high heat. The flesh will collapse. No texture. No structure.
00:55:29I told you all Renee could never beat Carter, but no one listens to me.
00:55:34There has to be a way. Come on. Think, Renee. Think.
00:55:40Renee, even if that cooktop worked again, you've got what? Two minutes? That's not cooking time. It's a joke.
00:55:58The cooktop is now recreated. Master Renee, please confirm. Do you continue?
00:56:14Maybe...
00:56:16Maybe I don't need my eyes at all.
00:56:18Oh, fantastic. She's officially lost it.
00:56:21She's pushed too hard. There's no way out of this.
00:56:24Go ahead. Impress me.
00:56:27Two minutes. One room fish in the wise.
00:56:30Okay. Let's see a miracle.
00:56:52What? What are you doing?
00:57:00She's cooking blind.
00:57:01A blindfolded chef? Is she trying to rewrite the rule book?
00:57:05Trust me. If Renee covers her eyes, it's because she's operating on a level neither of you can.
00:57:10This is unreal. Master Renee is voluntarily blindfolded.
00:57:14And she's still keeping pace. One minute left.
00:57:23I've done cooking competitions for 20 years and I've never seen anything like this.
00:57:28Renee, you've made a lifelong fan.
00:57:30This is Renee. Flying forward or not, she hits the bullseye every time.
00:57:3430 seconds left. Show me how you plan to pull off the miracle.
00:57:38Renee, you're anxious from the ground. Keep going. Come on.
00:57:41Wake up, Leon. You're cheering for a woman who can't even see her own plate.
00:57:45The only thing Renee can't see is how low you're willing to go.
00:57:49Renee, come on. Trust your hands. Own this moment.
00:57:52Final countdown. Five. Four. Three. Two. One. Time.
00:58:02It appears Master Renee did not...
00:58:06I'm finished.
00:58:19Well, I told you the battle isn't over.
00:58:22I'm gonna break my word.
00:58:24There we go! That's our girl!
00:58:28I never doubted you. Not for a second.
00:58:34Cute speech. But, uh, let's stay realistic.
00:58:38You barely reached the buzzer. Your hands are shaking.
00:58:41Your pen never reached full heat.
00:58:43Let me guess. The fish is still swimming?
00:58:46You did hold on longer than I predicted. I'll give you that.
00:58:49But adrenaline is a cheap trick, Renee.
00:58:52And the bill is about to come due.
00:58:54And those eyes, when this is over, you might not see a damn thing.
00:58:58Save your breath. I'm not interested.
00:59:01You're a blind chef trying to pull off a Michelin-grade mane.
00:59:05Please. I can't even suspend my disbelief that far.
00:59:09Then I suggest you watch closely because you're about to eat your words with a sight of humiliation.
00:59:14Both contestants have completed their dishes.
00:59:17And we now move into the final judging round.
00:59:29Leon, in a few minutes, your whole Heinz dining group will be sold to me for...
00:59:36Oh, um, what was it again?
00:59:38Right. 30% of its value. Ha! A bargain, really.
00:59:44Funny. Talk a lot for someone who's terrified of losing.
00:59:47Terrified, Leon? Let me tell you how the adults play the game.
00:59:51Do you know why Master Carter is undefeated?
00:59:54Because the entire Intercontinental Chef Association is our people.
01:00:02Here. The round one theme. That's your specialty.
01:00:06Good. And for the final round, whatever Renee makes, you give her exactly one point.
01:00:14Master Carter's Fish Wellington. Judges, please taste and score.
01:00:24Exquisite. Absolutely exquisite.
01:00:30Perfectly baked pastry. Moist, well-balanced fish.
01:00:34Technically outstanding.
01:00:40Nine. Nine.
01:00:50And a perfect ten from Tracy.
01:00:53Ten? Are you kidding?
01:00:55Master Carter actually got a perfect score.
01:01:02Oh, my God. This basically crowns him.
01:01:07Carter is the winner.
01:01:08Two nines and a ten.
01:01:09For Renee to beat that shit, you basically need a perfect trilogy of tens.
01:01:13That's almost mythical.
01:01:17Well, Leon? Ready to bend the knee?
01:01:19Oh, go on. Be a good boy.
01:01:22And give me Heinz dining group for 30%.
01:01:25This is what domination looks like.
01:01:31James, I was blind before.
01:01:33But now, please, give me another chance.
01:01:36Well, damn.
01:01:38Finally, someone decides to pick the winning side.
01:01:40Grace, what are you doing?
01:01:42Have you lost your mind?
01:01:44I'm perfectly sane.
01:01:45You all are the crazy ones, putting all your hopes in, Renee.
01:01:49She will never be Carter.
01:01:51And when Heinz group collapses, I won't be going down with you.
01:01:54That's the spirit.
01:01:55Stick with me, and I will give you designer heels, luxury cars, penthouses.
01:02:02In fact, I'll even crown you as Master Grace.
01:02:06How does that sound?
01:02:10Judges, please score Chef Renee's Low Temp Wild Sablefish.
01:02:18Seriously?
01:02:19This looks like it belongs on a cheap hotel buffet.
01:02:22This is going to be fun.
01:02:24Ladies and gentlemen, watch closely.
01:02:26This is what losing looks like.
01:02:43Holy, Renee's current score is...
01:02:46What? A one?
01:02:48A what? That's wrong.
01:02:51There must have been a mistake.
01:02:54Master Renee, even a street vendor wouldn't crash this hard.
01:02:59Grace, go on.
01:03:01Be a doll and tell your ex-colleagues that the door to Maison is open.
01:03:06I'll pretend today never happened.
01:03:09You bastard!
01:03:10I would never abandon my team.
01:03:13I would rather sleep under a bridge than work for you.
01:03:16Hey! Leon, I just gave your people some killer job offers.
01:03:21You better learn on how to take care of your blind wife.
01:03:24Renee, stop embarrassing yourself.
01:03:26The world runs on connections.
01:03:28Not talentful.
01:03:30Anyone can sear a fish.
01:03:31Do your kid a favor.
01:03:32Go home.
01:03:33My duty suits you better.
01:03:35Carter, you still think you've won?
01:03:37Tell me I'm wrong.
01:03:38Your cod dish is pitiful.
01:03:40And honestly, giving you one point is charity work.
01:03:44Really?
01:03:45Well, I have three judges who haven't scored yet.
01:03:48So why don't you keep your smug eyes open and watch closely?
01:03:56They're reevaluating.
01:03:58The match isn't over.
01:03:59It's not even close.
01:04:00No.
01:04:01No!
01:04:02This can't be real.
01:04:03This is not happening.
01:04:20This is not happening.
01:04:22No.
01:04:23No, that can't be.
01:04:25It's not a one!
01:04:26It's a ten!
01:04:26It's a perfect ten!
01:04:28Jesus!
01:04:29Ten?
01:04:30Ten?
01:04:31And ten?
01:04:32Master Renee just broke the all-time record.
01:04:35She's the highest-scoring chef in competition history.
01:04:39Three.
01:04:41Three tens?
01:04:43It's for her?
01:04:46This is impossible.
01:04:48We planned on our own judges.
01:04:51She did it!
01:04:52Renee did it!
01:04:53We made history!
01:04:55No, her dish was basic.
01:04:57It was basic!
01:04:58I don't want to recount.
01:05:00She cheated!
01:05:01Still allergic to losing cotton?
01:05:04Face it.
01:05:05You got out-cooked by me.
01:05:07I'm in the square.
01:05:15Texture.
01:05:16Oh, please.
01:05:19Look, damn finish.
01:05:20I've never tasted cotton.
01:05:22It's perfect.
01:05:37Carter.
01:05:38Carter.
01:05:38In the name of the International Culinary Association, you're officially expelled.
01:05:43Every partner, every restaurant, and every league, your name is blacklisted permanently.
01:05:50You're a lunatic!
01:05:52You can't just race me!
01:05:54Ten years of receipts.
01:05:56Bribery.
01:05:57Rigged scores.
01:05:59Tainted plates.
01:06:00Four judges.
01:06:01All documented.
01:06:03All exposed.
01:06:09Carter...
01:06:09Got reported?
01:06:11You're kidding me, right?
01:06:12Damn right he did.
01:06:13That bastard karma finally punched back.
01:06:17Carter.
01:06:18James.
01:06:19You're suspected of bribery and competition fraud.
01:06:22Take them straight to the police.
01:06:24Now.
01:06:26Paul!
01:06:27Buddy, come on.
01:06:28Let's talk about this.
01:06:29Do you want to talk?
01:06:30Fantastic.
01:06:31The police station has chairs, buddy.
01:06:34Oh, growing somewhere?
01:06:36What?
01:06:37I'm your teacher.
01:06:39You can't do-
01:06:39And when you tried to destroy my entire life, did the word teacher even cross your mind?
01:06:44You broke our family.
01:06:46You tore us apart for six years, and now, it's time to pay your tab.
01:06:50What do you mean?
01:06:51What are you planning to do to me?
01:06:53There were plenty of time to think about that when you're behind bars.
01:06:55You'll regret this.
01:06:57All of you!
01:06:58Money.
01:06:59Access.
01:07:01Power.
01:07:01Connections.
01:07:02I can give you everything.
01:07:03Everything.
01:07:04Pathetic.
01:07:04Take them away.
01:07:05Hold it.
01:07:08Carter.
01:07:09Carter.
01:07:10You lost.
01:07:11And we're playing by your rules, right?
01:07:12Life or death match?
01:07:14So I think it's time you honor that.
01:07:15And Master Carter, none of you lay a finger on me.
01:07:19You terrorized young chef with these bets for years.
01:07:22You destroyed lives.
01:07:25Destroyed careers.
01:07:26Okay, but now, your bill has finally come due.
01:07:31You forget that you slammed this into me?
01:07:34Or is short-term memory loss just part of your personality?
01:07:37I amaze you.
01:07:39You're a nobody from a country shack.
01:07:42You dare surpass me?
01:07:44Everything I did was for my title.
01:07:46Tell me.
01:07:47What did I do wrong?
01:07:49Everything.
01:07:59My hand.
01:08:00My hand.
01:08:02My hand.
01:08:02Ah!
01:08:04Ah!
01:08:06Ah!
01:08:06Ah!
01:08:08Ah!
01:08:09Please.
01:08:10I was forced.
01:08:11It was James.
01:08:12He made me.
01:08:12I didn't want to.
01:08:13Grace.
01:08:14You're fired.
01:08:15Okay?
01:08:16Effective immediately.
01:08:17And listen close.
01:08:18Every restaurant, every affiliate, every partner under Heinz Group will blacklist you permanently.
01:08:27No.
01:08:29No.
01:08:29This can't be happening.
01:08:31This can't be the end.
01:08:34This can't be happening.
01:08:36This can't be the end.
01:08:37Zach.
01:08:38Get her out of here.
01:08:39No.
01:08:40No.
01:08:41No.
01:08:41Please.
01:08:42I shouldn't have snapped at your wife.
01:08:43Your daughter.
01:08:44And I shouldn't have listened to that sneak, James.
01:08:46Please just give me one more chance.
01:08:48Yes.
01:08:49Ladies and gentlemen.
01:08:50The 2026 Golden Fork Competition has officially reached its grand finale.
01:08:56Please congratulate Rene Restaurant of the Heinz Culinary Group.
01:09:00This year's top restaurant.
01:09:10And congratulations to Master Rene, crowned this year's top chef.
01:09:21Master Rene, Master Rene, Master Rene.
01:09:27And now, a brand new award created for someone truly one of a kind.
01:09:34Congratulations to Chef Catherine, winner of the cutest and most promising baby chef award.
01:10:06All right, ladies.
01:10:08Churros from the fryer.
01:10:10One for mommy and one for my princess.
01:10:16Mmm.
01:10:17It's so good.
01:10:18But still not as good as mommy's churros.
01:10:21Oh, well, if my little chef likes it, then I will make as many churros as you want.
01:10:25She has time.
01:10:27Master Chef Rene is booked until, what, next spring?
01:10:31I have the best mom on the entire planet.
01:10:34And dad.
01:10:36Hello.
01:10:37Dad is the best, too.
01:10:40Tomorrow I win a donut.
01:10:41A rainbow slushie.
01:10:43And a candy apple.
01:10:47Whatever Chef Catherine wants.
