Transcript
00:00:00I got you this job as a Fool Critic. Think of this as a debt paid.
00:00:08It'd be my honor, boss. Consider it already done. I never thought that fool would try to topple Chef Tony's
00:00:15marks of this city.
00:00:18Of course, if you're not up to the task, then my boys here will do what I pay them to
00:00:28do.
00:00:30If you catch my drift.
00:00:34Got it, Chef. Got it.
00:00:42Salute.
00:00:47Enjoy the best meal of your life.
00:01:00You are so hot when you're in sabotage mode. How are you going to take her down?
00:01:05Beat them at their own game.
00:01:18Well, that's it for our first night.
00:01:24Great. Time to clean up and go to our actual homes.
00:01:32Hey Dash. Chef Nina.
00:01:35An anonymous food blogger posted about home and...
00:01:39It's not good.
00:01:42And while the new restaurant seems to take itself seriously given the pricing...
00:01:46It's the clout of having a Dash of Temptation as their resident pastry chef that makes them cheap.
00:01:52God. See, this is exactly what I was worried about.
00:01:55A review by a faceless person on the internet?
00:01:58Aw, come on. They barely have any followers. They'll go nowhere.
00:02:02Well, how are you so sure that others don't feel the same about...
00:02:06Me?
00:02:09And here I thought we were getting along so well.
00:02:12Well, what do I do to squash it?
00:02:16What if we invite this low-life person in for dinner?
00:02:21Uh, we're booked up for the next six months.
00:02:23Yes.
00:02:29Listen, I know how the internet works.
00:02:33Just get her there to you and you'll blow over.
00:02:39Soon, real reviews from real customers will overshadow this as they shout from the mount on top how good home
00:02:48is.
00:02:49Hmm.
00:02:52I do want to believe you.
00:02:55Simply do so.
00:03:03Nina?
00:03:04Uh, just head home. I'll close up the rest.
00:03:24God, I can really use your advice right now, Papa.
00:03:40My darling princess, what's wrong?
00:03:44I burnt the meal.
00:03:45No.
00:03:48That's okay.
00:03:49Hey, look.
00:03:50You gotta understand.
00:03:51Greatness takes time.
00:03:53It's kind of like waiting for dough to rise.
00:04:02You keep experimenting, Nina.
00:04:04You're gonna be a great chef one day.
00:04:12See?
00:04:12Doesn't that make you feel better?
00:04:16Alright.
00:04:31Did you get home okay?
00:04:36This is home.
00:04:39Where I've only ever belonged.
00:04:50Thanks again for giving me a chance.
00:04:55Yeah, whatever.
00:05:01Am I being too hard on him?
00:05:05He did technically help book out my restaurant for six months.
00:05:14Figured you'd like to see all the reviews tonight from real customers.
00:05:19Such a great experience tonight in the comfort of Nina's new home.
00:05:22Exquisite execution.
00:05:24I'll be back soon if I can get a reservation.
00:05:33A peace offering.
00:05:42It's kind of my brand.
00:05:47It's kind of my brand.
00:05:51Oh my god.
00:05:53Oh my god.
00:06:05He's delicious.
00:06:07I mean the dessert.
00:06:11I don't know.
00:06:15I'm deep.
00:06:23Babe, where are you going so early?
00:06:25Time for a little manipulation tactic for our little special mission.
00:06:29You're a little devil, aren't you?
00:06:31I know how to warm her up just to leave her in the cold.
00:06:33Oh my god.
00:06:50Perfect timing.
00:06:53This is all the crap you stashed in my drawers and littered my living room with.
00:07:00Where's my stuff?
00:07:01Let's focus on apologies rather than your overreaction to a silly little mishap.
00:07:06Oh, you are such an asshole.
00:07:09Oh wait, I know what's going on.
00:07:11You're in a mood because of that terrible review by some online food influencer.
00:07:14That must have really stung.
00:07:16Ouch.
00:07:17That little thing?
00:07:18We're gonna get notable reviews from actual professionals.
00:07:22Just you wait.
00:07:25You'll never make it without me or my connections as a food critic.
00:07:29Yeah?
00:07:30And you'll never survive on Christie's overly sweet desserts.
00:07:33Time to up the insulin.
00:07:41Shit, what if he's right?
00:07:44I mean, Axel's the best food critic in town and without him on my side, how am I gonna get
00:07:50notable reviews?
00:07:56Hi.
00:07:58Hey, boss.
00:07:59How's it hanging?
00:08:01Uh, great, great.
00:08:03Just cleaning up.
00:08:04Fun.
00:08:06Is it okay if I pick up a few things for tonight's desserts?
00:08:09All the items there are what your previous chef had ordered.
00:08:12Oh, right.
00:08:13Yeah, go for it.
00:08:15Alright.
00:08:16See you tonight, then.
00:08:18Excited to see what you whip up!
00:08:24Ugh, why did I say that?
00:08:27Gross.
00:08:40Oops.
00:08:41Oh, boy.
00:08:44Yeah, that's...
00:08:45That's what I need right now.
00:08:47Ugh.
00:08:52Want some coffee?
00:08:54Sure.
00:08:55Cream?
00:08:56Sugar?
00:08:56No sugar!
00:08:59Geez, okay.
00:09:00Calm down.
00:09:04Tony's new menu shows the kind of sophistication that many of his rivals would sell their soul to copy.
00:09:16I need to hit harder!
00:09:26Welcome to your new home.
00:09:28Hi, yes.
00:09:29I'd like to make a reservation for tonight.
00:09:31I'm sorry, sir, but we are booked up six months in advance.
00:09:35What?!
00:09:35Would you like to-
00:09:37Go!
00:09:44I still have to give your things back, don't I, Nina?
00:09:53I said no sugar!
00:10:04Is this what I think it is?
00:10:05Uh-huh.
00:10:14Uh-huh.
00:10:16Got what you needed?
00:10:17Yes, Chef.
00:10:18It's gonna be delicious.
00:10:25Everyone, let's get ready for a busy night!
00:10:51Flamp buoyant, untalented,êts' little witch boy!
00:10:59Time to drop off your stuff, Nina.
00:11:17I hope you can swim, Nina.
00:11:21Cuddle this, bitch.
00:11:35Sir, no running.
00:11:38Hey, watch it, babe.
00:11:42I need to get home and start baking.
00:11:45Yeah, hi.
00:11:46I'd like to report a citation.
00:12:02Uh, how's the uni pasta with caviar looking?
00:12:18Oh, look up.
00:12:19The entire dining room is flooded.
00:12:26I got called for a health code citation.
00:12:30Oh.
00:12:31This restaurant is shut down and infected immediately.
00:12:36Are you the owner?
00:12:37Uh, I am.
00:12:38I have to give you a failing grade.
00:12:40But, no, a failing grade, look, I have never...
00:12:42Hang on, inspector?
00:12:47Theo.
00:12:49Theo?
00:12:49I like that name.
00:12:52I like you.
00:12:54I mean, I've watched all your videos and all.
00:13:00Can you give us a few hours to figure out what happened before you give our chef her first failing
00:13:06grade?
00:13:07It'd mean a lot to me.
00:13:10For you, anything.
00:13:14I'll give you some dessert on the house, of course, as a thank you.
00:13:17Oh, I can't take bribes.
00:13:19It's not a bribe.
00:13:21A bribe would be me feeding you dessert myself.
00:13:25I can take bribes.
00:13:26I can take all the bribes.
00:13:28I'll be right back with a to-go bag.
00:13:31Thank you for understanding.
00:13:38Chef Tony.
00:13:40It's been handled.
00:13:42They'll be shut down.
00:13:44Well done, Axel.
00:13:46You've proven to be invaluable to me.
00:13:49What can I say?
00:13:51It's the least I can do.
00:13:51Hey, tell me, what's a food critic job paying these days?
00:13:57I get by.
00:14:00How'd you like to make a little extra?
00:14:02Come work for my restaurant's management team.
00:14:07But wouldn't that conflict with my current job?
00:14:10You worry too much.
00:14:12Let me handle that.
00:14:17What are you thinking?
00:14:20The flood didn't just happen on its own.
00:14:23The cameras might have caught the perpetrator.
00:14:26So you're thinking that someone did this on purpose?
00:14:30Where's the security feed?
00:14:34Oh, um...
00:14:39Who's this?
00:14:42Oh my god, that's my ex-fiancé!
00:14:47Mm-hmm.
00:14:50This is my ex-fiancé, Axel.
00:14:52He's the food critic for the paper, but apparently our saboteur.
00:14:58That is so unethical.
00:15:01Who called in the citation?
00:15:03All I know is that it was a man.
00:15:06Recognize this number?
00:15:09Oh, that's Axel's number.
00:15:11God, that little life's gone.
00:15:13Okay, call me when you clean up this mess for a proper inspection.
00:15:16Until then, I'll give you a pending grave.
00:15:20Thank you so much.
00:15:23And thank you for the sweet treat.
00:15:27There's more where that came from.
00:15:33What are you doing?
00:15:35Finishing what Axel started.
00:15:39Hello?
00:15:40Yes?
00:15:42Sun News?
00:15:44I'd like to discuss a matter concerning your food critic, Axel Vitti.
00:15:53It's settled.
00:15:54A paper fired Axel.
00:15:56He's gone.
00:15:58We're safe.
00:16:00Um, don't underestimate Axel.
00:16:03This might have started something worse.
00:16:07I got you.
00:16:08I promise.
00:16:12Too bad home will have to go into foreclosure
00:16:15after its humiliating health inspection.
00:16:25Hello, editor?
00:16:26Yes, I just got the juiciest...
00:16:30What?
00:16:32No, what?
00:16:33You can't fire me!
00:16:34What?
00:16:34No!
00:16:39I'll kill them!
00:16:40I'll kill...
00:16:41Oh, fuck.

00:27:02I control your funds.
00:27:04I doubt your little dessert job would cover your bills if that's all you had to live on.
00:27:09The market.
00:27:101 p.m.
00:27:19Morning, sweetie.
00:27:24Oh, my God.
00:27:25He's hurt badly.
00:27:29Hey, how did this happen?
00:27:35How about you come with us, sweetie?
00:27:36Or the health inspector who left the crawl back to the hospital.
00:27:47Let's take a walk.
00:27:53My assistant showed me the video.
00:27:56Your mother's deserved.
00:27:57You dare to replicate it.
00:27:59I didn't replicate it.
00:28:01I honored it.
00:28:02Remembered it.
00:28:03You wouldn't know the difference.
00:28:05You turned it into content.
00:28:06Smeared her memory all over the internet.
00:28:09Then had the audacity to put it on the menu.
00:28:12No.
00:28:13Chef Nina put it on the menu.
00:28:16Then she's a fool.
00:28:17You're not talented enough to recreate it.
00:28:20You've never tried anything I've made.
00:28:23How would you know?
00:28:25I'm not foolish enough to let you ruin my taste buds.
00:28:29This conversation is done.
00:28:32Take it off the menu.
00:28:33Or I cut off your funding.
00:28:50Fuck you, Axel.
00:28:53If only you had.
00:28:54You tried ruining my restaurant.
00:28:56Don't worry.
00:28:57I'll succeed somehow.
00:29:01Who are these goons?
00:29:04My cleanup crew.
00:29:08Mosa.
00:29:12You've met Chef Tony, right?
00:29:15You've met Chef Tony, right?
00:29:19So this little thing's been making all that noise, huh?
00:29:25Your restaurant has been taking attention away from mine.
00:29:32Why would someone critically acclaimed as you be worried about my little restaurant, do you?
00:29:35Oh, little, little, listen to the Joker here.
00:29:40All right.
00:29:41That's funny.
00:29:42Huh?
00:29:42Tell me about that.
00:29:45What do you want?
00:29:47I want you to shut down your restaurant.
00:29:50Now, before you tell me about business and such, just understand, I'm a stand-up guy, all right?
00:29:57I will pay you handsomely to shut your business down and just go back to making pizzas.
00:30:05Doesn't that sound nice?
00:30:07And what if I don't?
00:30:09I'll have Axel here.
00:30:10Cut off your hand.
00:30:14It's pretty hard to cook with only one hand, don't you think?
00:30:17Fuck you!
00:30:19That's not nice.
00:30:28It's Nia.
00:30:34Hey, Axel!
00:30:57Tony, how you doing, old friend?
00:31:00Oh, no!
00:31:01It's all right.
00:31:02I don't meddle in this kind of business deal, so help her out some.
00:31:05Ludo, I haven't tried your restaurants yet, but I hear great things.
00:31:11Don't worry.
00:31:12I don't take your absence personally.
00:31:14It's quite refreshing, actually.
00:31:17It's been, what, 30 years since culinary school?
00:31:21Time flies when you're as successful as me.
00:31:25I see you're still fighting your way through the competition.
00:31:30I don't regret it.
00:31:32I don't expect you to, but to try to do the same to a woman?
00:31:37That's a new load, even for you.
00:31:40What are you talking about?
00:31:41You're so busy.
00:31:43Hey, hey, Nia.
00:31:44Nia, wake up.
00:31:46Wake up, come on.
00:31:47Wake up.
00:32:00Am I in heaven?
00:32:02Kind of.
00:32:03We're at the food market.
00:32:06We're at the food market.
00:32:07Oh, where's Tony?
00:32:10My father threatened to reveal Tony's illegal workings, if you ever try to hurt you again.
00:32:15Oh.
00:32:16Well, where's your father?
00:32:17I need to thank him.
00:32:19He left for a fish auction.
00:32:21Do you think you can walk?
00:32:30Oh, my God.
00:32:33I'm so sorry.
00:32:39Hello?
00:32:41This is he?
00:32:44Oh, uh, thanks for letting me know.
00:32:47No, there's no cause for concern.
00:32:51What was that?
00:32:53Nothing.
00:32:56Come on.
00:32:57I'm going to finish your shopping.
00:32:59The restaurant's about to open.
00:33:01I'm sure Axel's not going to come back for us.
00:33:05He's a little tied up at the moment.
00:33:39Hey, guys.
00:33:40Hey, guys.
00:33:53Thanks again for saving me.
00:33:56It's the least I could do.
00:33:57Does it hurt?
00:34:00Not as much as it would hurt you to lose your hand.
00:34:05My career would be over.
00:34:08I hate to ask, but I was wondering when I could expect my first check.
00:34:14Next Friday, do you need any dance?
00:34:18I was just curious.
00:34:22Mind if I do a short video before we open?
00:34:26I'll give you a pass for today's world of actions.
00:34:37Hey, guys.
00:34:38How you doing?
00:34:39Today, I'll show you how to decorate the perfect stoning language.
00:34:48I'm starting off with this.
00:34:51Doors are open!
00:35:01My favorite part.
00:35:03Hey.
00:35:05We're open now, so let's focus, okay?
00:35:08You got a check.
00:35:22For today.
00:35:26I'm fine.
00:35:28I can't wait.
00:35:28No, hey.
00:35:29I'm happy to help those who help me.
00:35:32We're a team.
00:35:33I got you.
00:35:39First order.
00:35:46Please, please, Chef Tony.
00:35:48Please, I beg you.
00:35:49I beg you.
00:35:50Why shouldn't I punish you after today's fiasco?
00:35:53No, no, no.
00:35:54I promise you.
00:35:54I promise you.
00:35:55I can destroy her restaurant for good.
00:35:56If you just give me a second chance, please.
00:35:58I don't believe you, and I don't believe in second chances.
00:36:02No, no, no, no.
00:36:02Not for me.
00:36:03Not for me.
00:36:03For her restaurant.
00:36:05I can drain her from the inside out.
00:36:21Chefina, I'm so sorry, but I have a family emergency, and I have to leave.
00:36:25Like, forever.
00:36:28Oh, my goodness.
00:36:30Yeah, go, but I'm really sorry to hear that.
00:36:33Do you have your tables covered?
00:36:36I do.
00:36:36Thanks.
00:36:38What was the...
00:36:41Chef Nina, who's covering the front?
00:36:43What do you mean the hostess is?
00:36:46She's not there anymore.
00:36:47Wait.
00:36:49What?
00:36:50What?
00:36:53She just bounced.
00:36:55Something about another restaurant that's offering her double the pay.
00:37:02Uh, actually, I'm having a family emergency.
00:37:05I really need to go.
00:37:06Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, please.
00:37:08Please don't go.
00:37:10Whatever it is, we can work it out, okay?
00:37:12Look, I have kids to pay for.
00:37:14I'm so sorry.
00:37:17Okay.
00:37:17Okay.
00:37:17Okay.
00:37:18Okay.
00:37:18Okay.
00:37:22Okay.
00:37:23Okay.
00:37:35All the meals are ruined.
00:37:37We're going to be backed up for hours.
00:37:40I'm going to need all hands.
00:37:42Okay.
00:37:43Front of house just left.
00:37:44So if you cook a meal, you have to serve it.
00:37:47That is above my pay.
00:38:02I think something's up.
00:38:05Yeah, someone's offering my employees a better paying good.
00:38:09Did you get a text?
00:38:10Even if I did, I'd ignore it.
00:38:17Excuse me.
00:38:18I have a meal to serve.
00:38:26Oh, shit.
00:38:27Now I have to talk to customers.
00:38:36Oh, God.
00:38:42Enjoy.
00:38:42This is the worst service ever.
00:38:45Tell the chef I'm under arrest.
00:38:47Oh, I am the chef.
00:38:50You never came to check on any of the tables.
00:38:54Isn't that what chefs are supposed to do?
00:38:56Parade around in schmooze?
00:38:58Uh, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:39:02I'm so sorry you haven't missed your meal.
00:39:05It took an hour to get this horse.
00:39:07I lost my appetite.
00:39:10Oh, God.
00:39:24What are you doing?
00:39:27You're making sure the customers don't see you crying.
00:39:32God, this is terrible.
00:39:33My restaurant, it's done.
00:39:36It's finished.
00:39:37It's over.
00:39:43One shrimp salad and toasted bread.
00:39:46Oh, my God.
00:39:47What are you doing?
00:39:49We are prepping the next meal.
00:39:52Come on.
00:39:53We got this.
00:39:57Just tell me what to do, chef.
00:40:09I like the tomatoes cut in half.
00:40:20I like the tomatoes cut in half.
00:40:28Now, let's go serve the customers.
00:40:34After you, chef.
00:40:48Oh, no, the landlord.
00:40:51Oh, no, the landlord.
00:40:57Bon appetit.
00:41:02Welcome.
00:41:02I wasn't expecting you.
00:41:05Just got the bill for the recent cleanup.
00:41:08I'm adding that to your rent.
00:41:11You'll be able to afford it, right?
00:41:16Do I need to look for a new tenant?
00:41:21What an asshole.
00:41:29No one has gotten to dessert.
00:41:33Excuse me.
00:41:36This restaurant will definitely not be part of the best city competition.
00:42:00I understand if you take the offer.
00:42:03It's not bad.
00:42:05Sit.
00:42:12All is going to work out.
00:42:15I don't need a miracle to happen.
00:42:18Everyone's coming.
00:42:32This is chef Nina.
00:42:34What?
00:42:38You submitted us to the competition?
00:42:43Did they mention the cash prize?
00:42:47No.
00:42:49It'll pay the rent and the bill.
00:42:52Well, I mean, we have to do everything.
00:42:55We have to cook.
00:42:56We have to serve.
00:42:57And the two of us will be amazing.
00:43:00Well, I...
00:43:02The chef's cocktail meeting is tomorrow night,
00:43:04so then I have to cancel reservations and...
00:43:07Tell me what needs to be done,
00:43:08and I'll help you do it.
00:43:10You really think we have a chance at winning it?
00:43:13Ina...
00:43:15You're an amazing chef who's a threat to all the other restaurants in this city.
00:43:21You're...
00:43:22You're getting sabotaged left and right.
00:43:25You know deep down why.
00:43:26Take it before it's gone.
00:43:37Hey there, Axel.
00:43:39Tony wanted us to deliver this message in person.
00:43:42What's going on?
00:43:42I handled her employees.
00:43:44She's toast.
00:43:46She entered the competition?
00:43:56Pretty empty at this hour.
00:43:59Want to take back your stance on the dessert?
00:44:02Just say the word and the money will go back into your account.
00:44:06Everything's going to work out.
00:44:09Take a look around, son.
00:44:12You can't live off of this failure.
00:44:16I have a lot to prove.
00:44:18And Anonina is the one who helped me see it through.
00:44:23When do you leave?
00:44:26I've got a short gig, so I'm sticking around for a couple extra days.
00:44:31Good luck.
00:44:41Charming, isn't he?
00:44:47We're going to win this competition come hell or high water.
00:45:20Tony said you need to handle this competition.
00:45:22Or else...
00:45:24Or else what?
00:45:26Or else what?
00:45:27What the fuck do you think guys like us are hired to do?
00:45:29Hey, hey, but I'm a judge.
00:45:31I, you know, I got fired.
00:45:33I have no way to infiltrate.
00:45:34That sounds like a human.
00:45:43No turning back now.
00:45:59I got you.
00:46:00I promise.
00:46:24Hello, chefs.
00:46:25How delighted we are to have you tonight toasting the competition.
00:46:31I'd like to apologize for the late start this evening.
00:46:34Seems like one of our judges got food poisoning.
00:46:37I know, ironic.
00:46:39Luckily, a last-minute replacement randomly stumbled in.
00:46:43We would also like to mention this year we have a celebrity judge that we are all quite excited about.
00:46:49So, please, help me welcome our judges.
00:47:01We're screwed.
00:47:13I look forward to hearing your restaurant's name come in last place.
00:47:24I'm going to meet the judges.
00:47:26Want to join?
00:47:31I'm not a great conversationalist.
00:47:34That's all you.
00:47:48Can't wait to watch the staff interact with the judges.
00:47:51Oh, wait, I mean, just you and Dash.
00:47:55What are you talking about?
00:47:56The competition doesn't just judge the food.
00:47:59They judge the service.
00:48:01And knowing your lack of personal skills.
00:48:05Oh, yes, yes, yes.
00:48:12This will be.
00:48:18Okay.
00:48:19This was a terrible idea.
00:48:22You know, the competition is going to cost me two nights of payment on the floor.
00:48:27I hate to break it to you, but having seen how last night went, staying open wouldn't have changed that.
00:48:34Okay, well, maybe I should just shut down the restaurant and save my dignity.
00:48:38You're not going to do that.
00:48:41I won't allow it.
00:48:45What is this really about, Nina?
00:48:50I need to learn how to be charming.
00:49:02How's your evening going, ma'am?
00:49:06Just get on with it.
00:49:09Taking it in how the customer is feeling will help you understand their needs, Chef Nina.
00:49:14Well, friend, you came to the right spot to cool down.
00:49:23How about a nice chilled soup to start?
00:49:27Or would a cocktail fit your fancy?
00:49:32Worked, didn't it?
00:49:33Yeah, that was good.
00:49:37I know.
00:49:40Now, your turn.
00:49:43What?
00:49:44No.
00:49:46From the entrance.
00:49:52Oh, my God, my God, my God, my God.
00:50:16That was adorable.
00:50:18Oh, no, it wasn't. Redo.
00:50:21Hey, hey, hey.
00:50:23Relax.
00:50:29Ahem.
00:50:30You smell like chocolate and strawberries.
00:50:34Better?
00:50:39Ahem.
00:50:44How are you doing this evening?
00:50:47Starving.
00:50:53Then you must be interested in our five-course menu experience.
00:50:57That'll definitely satisfy your hunger.
00:51:02Exactly.
00:51:03This might not be so bad after all.
00:51:06Well, yeah, I mean, if your father and my ex don't potentially ruin our futures as chefs, this should be
00:51:12a piece of cake.
00:51:18I got you.
00:51:21We'll win this together.
00:51:23Promise.
00:51:24Trust me.
00:51:25What?
00:51:28Yes, chef.
00:51:33We need to do a dry run.
00:51:35From the beginning to end.
00:51:37You ready?
00:51:42Good.
00:51:43Let the games begin.
00:51:49Let's go.
00:52:16Let's go.
00:52:45Let's go.
00:52:48It's perfect.
00:52:54No one goes great with it.
00:53:12Excellent customer service.
00:53:15Back at you, chef.
00:53:36Please excuse us as we prepare your next course.
00:53:38Bun.
00:53:41Appetit.
00:53:51Ah, excuse me.
00:54:13What?
00:54:25What?
00:54:25What is it?
00:54:27Nothing.
00:54:27It's just...
00:54:31I guess it feels like the home I've always wanted to build.
00:54:36Me too.
00:54:45What?
00:54:49What?
00:54:51What?
00:54:51What?
00:55:08What?
00:55:10What?
00:55:12What?
00:55:13What?
00:55:24What?
00:55:26What?
00:55:27What?
00:55:40What?
00:55:41What do you think you're doing?
00:55:43I'm just helping you with behind the scenes.
00:55:47You ready?
00:55:50Okay.
00:55:52And...
00:55:53Action.
00:55:58Anyone can build a house.
00:56:01But it takes love to make it a home.
00:56:04And that's my secret ingredient for the dessert I'm going to prepare for the competition.
00:56:10I deserve my mother.
00:56:12It used to make me when I was feeling sad and she knew I needed extra love to get me
00:56:18through
00:56:18some hard times.
00:56:29Perfect.
00:56:31Oh!
00:56:32No, it...
00:56:33That's okay.
00:56:33I can just totally clean it.
00:56:36Or...
00:56:36You have me.
00:56:41You have to do a wash.
00:56:42I can't.
00:57:08See more of that?
00:57:11I, uh, you, you, you, you could.
00:57:15Yes, Chef.
00:57:27I'll be right back.
00:57:43Uh, so the cameras are still up?
00:57:48Don't worry.
00:57:50I can turn them away so they don't face us.
00:57:55But what if they did?
00:58:00Yes, Chef.
00:58:23Tell me how much you want.
00:58:27All of it?
00:58:30Yes, Chef.
00:59:01How do you like it?
00:59:04Well done.
00:59:05It's been a long time.
00:59:07Because I'm all done.
00:59:09I'm going to do some of them.
00:59:23I'm going to do some business.
00:59:29I didn't want to do some business.
00:59:29I know what it means to my husband.
00:59:34I'm going to do some business.
00:59:39How do you think we'd score?
00:59:43Oh, 10 out of 10 for sure.
00:59:49Let's win this thing.
00:59:55Seconds?
00:59:57Uh, can we have actual dessert before we leave?
01:00:14We can't do the grilled octopus and beetroot salad.
01:00:17Salmon?
01:00:18We do have shrimp too.
01:00:20Shrimp would be better.
01:00:21So how about we start off with the shrimp?
01:00:23And then salmon after.
01:00:25Yes, we'll replace the octopus, salmon.
01:00:29Wait.
01:00:35Do you know what time they're coming?
01:00:37Uh, 2 p.m.?
01:00:402 p.m.?
01:00:42So then we need to de-thaw the...
01:01:02Welcome home.
01:01:05Greeting us yourselves?
01:01:06You really can't keep a staff, can you?
01:01:09Hmm.
01:01:11Well, we let them have the night off.
01:01:14It's just us.
01:01:15Mi casa, su casa.
01:01:18We've had a long day at the other restaurants and I have a plane to catch after this.
01:01:21So, uh, can we get on with it?
01:01:23Oh, this way.
01:01:34Enjoy the wine.
01:01:35We'll be right back with your first course.
01:01:46Wine free.
01:01:59Just tell them a story.
01:02:01This is your home after all.
01:02:09Uh, this dish is from my late father's homeland.
01:02:14It's a take on a meal we would eat on fishing boats after a long day at sea.
01:02:18Expertly executed, chef.
01:02:28Is there something wrong, Judge?
01:02:32Uninspired.
01:02:33You can't be serious.
01:02:35Are you even qualified to be here?
01:02:37He probably sabotaged his way back in.
01:02:41Ever heard he got fired.
01:02:49We'll get you a new fork, sir.
01:02:59So attentive.
01:03:05Oh, just eat, you snake.
01:03:07This is the worst meal of my life.
01:03:11Disgusting.
01:03:14Walking down memory lane must have really worked out my appetite.
01:03:24As I said, expertly executed.
01:03:33For you.
01:03:55I hope you all saved room for dessert.
01:03:57It's chef Dash's specialty.
01:04:01Can't be served.
01:04:02I'll be serving you all a dish from my childhood.
01:04:06My late mother used to make me this dish when I was feeling low and to this day, every time
01:04:15I eat it, it's as if she's here with me, putting a smile on my face.
01:04:22Excuse me.
01:04:27It's an honor to have him serve this dish under my name.
01:04:32Excuse me.
01:04:44Wait, wait, wait. Those scores are higher than the ones you gave to Chef Tony.
01:04:47As it should be.
01:04:49This is one of the most unique experiences I've ever had.
01:04:52Across the board, excellence.
01:04:54It's just the two of them.
01:04:56Exactly.
01:04:57It's like I'm literally in their home.
01:04:59It's so giving mommy and daddy vibes.
01:05:06Please tell me you don't agree with these amateurs.
01:05:09It is unique.
01:05:11But I have my own hangups to ponder.
01:05:16I didn't think this plan would fail.
01:05:19I must do something.
01:05:32Only one dessert?
01:05:34What'd you run out of money?
01:05:35Dessert here is served family style.
01:05:38It's meant to be shared.
01:05:39To be fought over.
01:05:41To bring us all together.
01:05:56Bon appetit.
01:05:58Whoa.
01:06:00It's even more beautiful in person.
01:06:05It looks exactly like...
01:06:07It is exactly how she made it.
01:06:11Minus the flowers and gold, of course.
01:06:15Only one dessert.
01:06:18I'm afraid to try it.
01:06:22I know.
01:06:24I understand.
01:06:25I know you have a good time.
01:06:31But I know you're under those things.
01:06:34But you are a good man.
01:06:36Oh, just so you're...
01:06:38Oh, you're a good man.
01:06:39Oh my God.
01:06:41Hey, Johnny.
01:06:42Oh, boy.
01:06:43Oh my God.
01:06:44Oh my God.
01:06:45Oh my God.
01:06:54Oh.
01:06:59it's exactly
01:07:03it's as if she's here with me today
01:07:08you brought her back to life
01:07:13may we?
01:07:28this was a cherry on top of a perfectly executed meal
01:07:32I know who my winner is
01:07:34no no no no no no no no no no no no that's not how this is supposed to go
01:07:39okay I flooded their restaurant
01:07:40all right I'm the one that did that
01:07:43I poisoned his drink so that chef Tony would get the highest score and I took their chefs all right
01:07:48She still rises, that little fucking pizza girl!
01:07:54I should kill you!
01:08:00They're gonna kill me.
01:08:22Hey boss, just saw Axel run off.
01:08:28The winner was announced?
01:08:32You gotta be shitting.
01:08:35Yeah, we'll hand up it from here.
01:08:41Home one.
01:08:43Huh.
01:08:47It's time for Axel to go swimming with the fishes.
01:09:03Okay, now you two stand in front of your sign, because we need a photo of the first ever
01:09:09dual chef to win this competition.
01:09:13Hehehe.
01:09:16Oh, gorgeous.
01:09:20Such a sexy couple.
01:09:22Thanks.
01:09:24Wait.
01:09:26Are we?
01:09:32That's a yes, by the way.
01:09:40Can I get one with my dad in it?
01:09:42Absolutely.
01:10:02Congratulations.
01:10:11This is going to help us so much.
01:10:14Thank you again for your vote.
01:10:15I knew it the moment I saw your first plate.
01:10:18You've got talent.
01:10:20Both of you.
01:10:21I hate to say it, but I'm impressed.
01:10:24Thank you, Chef Leto.
01:10:26It means a lot coming from an extraordinary chef like yourself.
01:10:29You both have a bright future.
01:10:33I'd like to bring home under the Leto Fine Dining Management Group.
01:10:40That would be an honor, Chef.
01:10:44You'll have all the funding you need to keep this star of a restaurant going.
01:10:48And as for you, I'll reinstate your trust fund into the bank account tomorrow morning.
01:10:54Hold on.
01:10:57Hello.
01:11:00Really?
01:11:01But how?
01:11:05You don't say.
01:11:07Interesting.
01:11:10My assistant just informed me that all my restaurants are suddenly booked up for the next two years.
01:11:17Something about a photo my son uploaded with me in it.
01:11:21The internet's calling me Zaddy Leto.
01:11:27Maybe I can delay my flight so you can teach me how to make a post.
01:11:31What do you say?
01:11:33I'd say we have time for another bottle of wine and a recap.
01:11:38Maybe some dessert too.
01:11:46We did it.
01:11:49Just the two of us.
01:11:51In our home.
01:11:54I have a special video I'd like to edit for you.
01:11:59Oh.
01:12:00The security footage?
01:12:02Yes.
01:12:04But you have to promise me to keep it private.
01:12:08I'll keep it safe.
01:12:10Just like how you've kept me.
01:12:12I'll be back in.
01:12:12Bye.
01:12:12Goodbye.
01:12:13Bye-bye.
01:12:13Bye-bye, bye-bye.
01:12:14Bye-bye.
01:12:15Bye-bye.
