00:00:01We're bringing, we're bringing the fire.
00:00:04Love is our home and it's time.
00:00:06Hot pan chef, behind.
00:00:07We're bringing, we're bringing the fire.
00:00:10We're bringing the fire.
00:00:11Take us higher.
00:00:19That's Troy Davenport.
00:00:21He's the chef in all the honors.
00:00:23The guy's a legend.
00:00:25I heard he has a short fuse.
00:00:27It's hard to leave Julian partnered with him.
00:00:31Listen up everybody.
00:00:33Charles DuPont, America's top food critic,
00:00:36is here to review the Davenport.
00:00:38His influence could lead us to a Michelin star.
00:00:42This is what we've all been working toward.
00:00:45We got this.
00:00:50Don't mess it out.
00:00:51Thanks for the pep talk.
00:01:03Baby.
00:01:04Hi.
00:01:06Look, I just want to say that I am literally so proud of you.
00:01:10And tonight really feels like my dream.
00:01:15Our dreams are finally coming true.
00:01:22You got this, honey.
00:01:30You got this, honey.
00:01:39They're coming true.
00:01:40What?
00:01:42Yes.
00:01:48Corinne.
00:01:50Wow.
00:01:52Is that Troy Davenport's girlfriend making out with his business partner,
00:01:56Yeah.
00:01:57Didn't you go to culinary school with Troy.
00:01:59Yep.
00:02:00But he doesn't remember me.
00:02:02But I remember him alone.
00:02:04I was so in love with him.
00:02:06But he had a temper.
00:02:08He's gonna lose his shit about this.
00:02:22Wow.
00:02:23Was that Troy Davenport's girlfriend making out with his business partner?
00:02:27Yeah.
00:02:28I can't believe this.
00:02:32Troy Davenport is the most successful and famous chef in America.
00:02:38Alina definitely doesn't deserve him.
00:02:44Um, so sorry about this, sir.
00:02:47We'll get this taken care of.
00:02:48Yes, I'll make you another one right away.
00:02:49It's on the house.
00:02:50Thanks.
00:02:57Hey, chef.
00:02:59Charles DuPont is here.
00:03:00At table 13, he's asking for you personally.
00:03:03Great.
00:03:09Charles DuPont.
00:03:11Oh, the soon-to-be Michelin star man.
00:03:14It's a pleasure to finally meet you.
00:03:18Is everything all right?
00:03:42Son of a bitch.
00:03:44Ah!
00:03:52What the fuck happened here?
00:03:57We are so sorry.
00:03:59Your meal's on the house tonight.
00:04:19Troy, you can't talk with him!
00:04:25You're finished!
00:04:27You're right.
00:04:27I am finished.
00:04:28With both of you!
00:04:29Troy, wait.
00:04:30I can explain.
00:04:31It's over.
00:04:32This place.
00:04:33Just step aside and talk about this.
00:04:34We are one step away from a Michelin star.
00:04:37Fuck your Michelin.
00:04:38Oh, careful, Troy.
00:04:40This restaurant is all you have.
00:04:43Yeah, you're making a big mistake.
00:04:44You walk out that door and I promise you'll never work in this town again.
00:04:48I guess this is all I had.
00:04:50I'm done.
00:04:55Fuck you.
00:05:02Oh my gosh, that's Tom Davenport.
00:05:05Fuck off.
00:05:06He's gorgeous.
00:05:13Fuck, fuck, fuck.
00:05:16I need a drink.
00:05:24Troy Davenport.
00:05:26I heard he just beat up his bottles.
00:05:37Hey, where's my burger?
00:05:39Where's your food?
00:05:47Hey, what do I have to do to get a drink around here?
00:05:54Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:05:56Hector!
00:05:58Scandal rocks the culinary world.
00:06:00Ho, ho, order, man.
00:06:01As all charges have been dropped against Chef Troy Davenport.
00:06:08Hey, papa.
00:06:09Sources reveal the viral outburst stemmed from an affair between Julian Hartman, his business
00:06:15partner, and his girlfriend, Elena Stewart.
00:06:18Reporting live in Knoxville, I'm Abby Pork.
00:06:22Yo, you see what went down across the street?
00:06:24Shit's crazy.
00:06:26Hector, put your phone away, okay?
00:06:28Customers are complaining they're not getting what they ordered.
00:06:30Well, if we had a system, we wouldn't be drowning every goddamn night.
00:06:33Whoa, simmer down, drama queen.
00:06:37Call me drama queen one more time.
00:06:39I dare you, Codron.
00:06:41Enough, okay?
00:06:43We're already behind.
00:06:44It's because you don't know how to run this kitchen.
00:06:47You know what?
00:06:50Troy's a genius.
00:06:51That's how you do it.
00:06:53Boop, damara.
00:06:54Hector.
00:06:57I'm done.
00:07:01Where are you going?
00:07:07Hector.
00:07:10Hector, come on.
00:07:10Please, please, please, please, please.
00:07:12I need you to stay.
00:07:13Please.
00:07:14I need you.
00:07:16You need a lot of things, Corrine.
00:07:17I'm the least of your problems.
00:07:19I quit.
00:07:37What have you done?
00:07:38Your face is all over the news.
00:07:39I did what I had to do.
00:07:41Hey, where's my burger?
00:07:43Cole, seriously, what is taking so long?
00:07:46Are you sure you've thought this through?
00:07:48Julian will destroy you.
00:07:50I gotta go.
00:07:53Where's our food?
00:07:54Your salads are coming, ma'am.
00:07:56I'm so sorry for the delay.
00:08:11Okay, so he's gone, but we'll just have to deal without him.
00:08:15Fuck.
00:08:16Guys, I can really use some help here.
00:08:21Corrine.
00:08:22Corrine.
00:08:22We're in trouble.
00:08:23Don't be surprised if we end up comping meals tonight.
00:08:27I can really use some help.
00:08:32Corrine.
00:08:33It's Corrine.
00:08:44Corrine.
00:08:47Corrine.
00:08:55Corrine.
00:08:57Corrine.
00:09:08Let me help.
00:09:18What is he doing here?
00:09:20You, turn the heat down.
00:09:22Huh?
00:09:22You're burning the scallops.
00:09:24Oh, shit.
00:09:26Everybody take a deep breath.
00:09:27You're only five tickets deep.
00:09:29Oh, yeah.
00:09:30Let me see the menu.
00:09:32It's pretty straightforward.
00:09:34Just be careful.
00:09:36Don't take Manny's knives, and if you go into the walk-in, don't slam the door, or it'll lock you
00:09:42out.
00:09:46Corrine, pull it together.
00:09:48He's just an arrogant chef.
00:09:50But God, he's hot.
00:09:52You're hot.
00:09:56I'm hot.
00:09:57Oh.
00:09:58Let's go.
00:10:34Manny, remember to use your safety words.
00:10:37Sorry, chef.
00:10:43You're a magician.
00:10:46Just tidying up some loose ends.
00:10:49Hey, Manny, stop working.
00:11:03Manny, not like that.
00:11:05You gotta control the pain.
00:11:08All right, Prince Charming.
00:11:09This ain't my first rodeo.
00:11:12On second thought.
00:11:15You got this.
00:11:16Hey, table three is complaining it's too cold.
00:11:18And where is seven?
00:11:21Oh, thank you.
00:11:24Where's my food?
00:11:27I'm so sorry for the delay.
00:11:30How is everything now?
00:11:41Is everything okay now?
00:11:45Now we're talking.
00:11:47This burger's better than the Davenport across the street.
00:11:50And this one's half the price.
00:11:54Did y'all get a new chef?
00:11:56We did.
00:11:57We started 15 minutes ago.
00:12:14Well, you survived the night.
00:12:17Thanks to you.
00:12:18I didn't do much.
00:12:20You did everything.
00:12:25If it's not too personal, can I ask what happened at your restaurant tonight?
00:12:32I'm done.
00:12:35I caught my business partner with his hands on my girlfriend.
00:12:42Ten years building that place.
00:12:46Now I've lost everything.
00:12:48You didn't lose everything.
00:12:51You lost the parts of your life you didn't need.
00:12:54There's a difference.
00:12:56Look, tonight would have been a disaster if we didn't have you.
00:12:59You were great.
00:13:02I just wanted to help.
00:13:04Well.
00:13:08If you want to keep on helping, I do need a replacement.
00:13:17Are you offering me a job?
00:13:19I am.
00:13:22I know we're not fine dining, but we make people happy.
00:13:28So.
00:13:31What do you say, Davenport?
00:13:51Julian, what the fuck is this?
00:13:53What are you talking about?
00:13:54It's a fresh start for us.
00:13:55I said, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:13:57I appreciate the gesture, but we're not getting a new name.
00:14:00The Davenport is already established.
00:14:03Okay, we are on Charles de Ponce radar.
00:14:05We're not going backwards.
00:14:07Now the real question is, where do we find a world-renowned chef like Troy?
00:14:10Chefs are a dime a dozen.
00:14:12Let me worry about that.
00:14:14I'm a grateful bitch.
00:14:15What the fuck is Troy doing?
00:14:20Looks like we weren't the only ones having an affair.
00:14:26Hey, they're not worth your energy.
00:14:32You're right.
00:14:33But you are.
00:14:35Okay, come on.
00:14:37Well, if Troy thinks he can set up shop across from us, then he's got another fucking thing coming.
00:14:43Listen, we will destroy them.
00:14:46Get it?
00:14:55I was thinking beet salad with citrus vinaigrette.
00:14:59Beets?
00:14:59For dinner service?
00:15:01They're heavy.
00:15:02They stain.
00:15:03They die on a plate.
00:15:04They do so much as blink.
00:15:06Okay, Mr. Michelin.
00:15:08Almost.
00:15:09People love beets.
00:15:11People love cheesecake, too.
00:15:12It doesn't mean you need to put it underneath all of your entrees.
00:15:16You need to check your ego.
00:15:17I think this is why we weren't friends in culinary school.
00:15:20We were in the same culinary school?
00:15:22Exactly.
00:15:23Now we're on the same page.
00:15:25Last night you walked into my restaurant, lectured my staff, and reorganized my kitchen in what?
00:15:30We'd known each other, like, ten seconds.
00:15:33Lecture?
00:15:34Really?
00:15:34Manny almost burned your kitchen down.
00:15:36I'm just saying, dial it back.
00:15:38And I'm just saying, you should be saying thank you.
00:15:44Now I remember you.
00:15:47You were always so standoffish.
00:15:50Standoffish?
00:15:52Hey, you.
00:15:55Hey.
00:15:56You're that chef that had the, uh, meltdown, right?
00:15:59What about it?
00:16:01Is this the girl you cheated on Elena with?
00:16:06She is a total downgrade.
00:16:17She is a total downgrade.
00:16:35You okay?
00:16:37Come on.
00:16:54She is a total downgrade.
00:16:58She is a total downgrade.
00:17:06I'm sorry.
00:17:14Thank you, but what about you?
00:17:17I'm fine.
00:17:43Shit, we should get back.
00:17:45You're not getting this, Beats.
00:17:59Here we go.
00:18:02Meat salad.
00:18:03Really.
00:18:04See, I'm not the only one.
00:18:07Just saying.
00:18:09Wait, I didn't know we were picking sides.
00:18:11Who's writing the checks around here?
00:18:13I do.
00:18:14I pick hers.
00:18:15That's what I thought.
00:18:17I like Beats.
00:18:19They're earthy.
00:18:20Earthy means it tastes like dirt.
00:18:23Dirt with personality.
00:18:25Exactly.
00:18:27God help us.
00:18:47This isn't food.
00:18:48It's dirt.
00:18:51I know what.
00:19:08Hey, uh, can somebody clean up this garbage?
00:19:18No.
00:19:19Hey, so, um, go buy yourself a new apron.
00:19:23You look like a maid.
00:19:26Get out of my restaurant.
00:19:28Now.
00:19:28Pick up your money and leave.
00:19:30Before I make you leave.
00:19:31Troy, we need to talk.
00:19:33Anything you need to say to Troy, you can say right here.
00:19:43Hey.
00:19:43How long have you and Troy been fucking?
00:19:46Excuse me?
00:19:48Let me get something straight.
00:19:50You walk into my restaurant after fucking his business partner and you're gonna accuse us?
00:19:56That's insane.
00:19:57Get out of my fucking restaurant before I press assault charges.
00:20:02Yeah.
00:20:03Good luck with that.
00:20:04So, I only came over here to warn you because Julian is furious.
00:20:09And I hope the two of you are ready for war because once we are done with you, you won't
00:20:15have any business left.
00:20:17Are you threatening me?
00:20:18Bitch, are you deaf?
00:20:19Get out.
00:20:21Now.
00:20:21I will ruin you!
00:20:24You hear me?
00:20:30What did you ever see in her?
00:20:33She knows how to get what she wants.
00:20:35But she doesn't have what it takes.
00:20:37She's not you.
00:20:39You have horrible taste in women.
00:20:41You have no idea.
00:20:49Julian!
00:20:50Julian!
00:20:52Okay, Troy and that dumb fucking bitch, okay?
00:20:55They're not going anywhere.
00:20:57They just threatened us.
00:20:58Us!
00:20:59You need to figure something out now.
00:21:01Threaten us?
00:21:02You should have left him a long time ago.
00:21:04I'll bury both those assholes.
00:21:07You need to find a replacement now!
00:21:09Oh, I'm way ahead of you.
00:21:11Come with me.
00:21:18So, where is this magical replacement of yours?
00:21:23Who the hell is that?
00:21:25My name's Hector Ramirez.
00:21:27Okay, congratulations.
00:21:30Julian says you need a new star.
00:21:32Looking for you, I'm the upgrade.
00:21:35Troy was the past.
00:21:36This is the future of the Davenport.
00:21:39Plus, he used to work for Corinne and knows all of her weaknesses.
00:21:42We had a system for the way that Troy never got down, right?
00:21:48I'm done!
00:21:50Is that so?
00:21:51Because from where I'm standing, it looks like we're fucked.
00:21:57Give me two weeks in this kitchen and I'll make everyone forget Troy ever existed.
00:22:02That's the attitude we want.
00:22:04What do you say?
00:22:14Troy was the past.
00:22:15This is the future of the Davenport.
00:22:18What do you say?
00:22:25Fine.
00:22:26Deal.
00:22:27But I am watching you, okay?
00:22:30One wrong move and you're out.
00:22:33Good luck.
00:22:39Just a bitch, I love it.
00:22:53What happened?
00:23:00Julian hired Hector?
00:23:02They gotta be desperate if they hired that asshole.
00:23:05Man, that guy's got some serious SPE.
00:23:09Small PP energy.
00:23:10That guy took over half my knife for all and that shit was expensive.
00:23:13You're a total.
00:23:14Julian did this on purpose.
00:23:16He wanted Troy to look replaceable.
00:23:19Julian likes to play dirty.
00:23:22Two can play at that game.
00:23:24What are we gonna do?
00:23:26We...
00:23:28are gonna go to war.
00:23:48Table 12's up. Let's move.
00:23:55You could have asked.
00:23:59You need salt.
00:24:04Try it.
00:24:06When you look at me baby, it's got me all hot.
00:24:12A dash of fire and sex
00:24:15Boiling over in the pot
00:24:21I get the night
00:24:22It's burning passion between us
00:24:25But you gotta cool your fire
00:24:29And let me cook
00:24:31Tipped
00:24:33Okay, we talked about this
00:24:34And I want you taking over my kitchen
00:24:36I'm taking this seriously
00:24:41There's a difference
00:24:54Grin, wait
00:24:55Ma'am, are you either going to kiss
00:24:57Or kill each other by Friday?
00:24:59100%, both
00:25:04Grin, wait
00:25:05You need me look like a fool
00:25:07In front of my kitchen staff
00:25:08That's not what happened
00:25:09You were critiquing my food
00:25:11Saying it wasn't ready
00:25:12I said the dish wasn't ready
00:25:15I was just trying to help you
00:25:16I don't want your help
00:25:17Fine
00:25:19I'll leave
00:25:20No, you having a little lover's quarrel
00:25:28You're finished
00:25:29You're finished
00:25:31Say it again
00:25:32I fucking dare you
00:25:33Go ahead, Troy
00:25:34Beat me up in front of your new girlfriend
00:25:37She's not my fucking girlfriend
00:25:43I hope I'm not interrupting
00:25:56I hope I'm not interrupting
00:26:00Mr. DuPont
00:26:02Troy Davenport
00:26:03Troy Davenport
00:26:03Yeah, I've been hearing quite a lot about you lately
00:26:05Rumor has it you've taken up residence across the street
00:26:09The rumors are true, Mr. DuPont
00:26:11Troy now works across the street at Corinne's Corner
00:26:15Then who is your head chef?
00:26:18Hector Ramirez
00:26:19The chef I couldn't wait to fire
00:26:22Oh?
00:26:23I've never heard of him
00:26:24There's a reason for that
00:26:27How's that going, by the way?
00:26:29Great
00:26:30Hector is five times the chef that Troy ever was
00:26:34Well, it seems we have quite the rivalry brewing in this little neighborhood
00:26:39I've been speaking with producers
00:26:41And we've spent the past few weeks
00:26:43Scouting the city's most talked-about kitchens
00:26:46And everywhere I go, I keep hearing about this feud
00:26:50Between Davenport and Corinne's Corner
00:26:53So, I've come to formally invite you both to compete
00:26:58One week from tomorrow
00:27:01Dash of Fire crowns the best restaurant in the city
00:27:05Televised nationwide
00:27:06And frankly, rivalry like this makes excellent television
00:27:12And I'll be one of the judges
00:27:15The Davenport will always reign king here
00:27:18So what happens when we win?
00:27:20If you win
00:27:21The winner gets national recognition on the show
00:27:25And a recommendation from me for a Michelin star
00:27:28What's the competition?
00:27:31Both restaurants will present one signature dish
00:27:34And the community dish
00:27:36Something meaningful that's rooted in who you are
00:27:43May the best restaurant win
00:27:45It will
00:27:53The competition is one week away
00:27:55If we beat the Davenport, we set the record straight
00:27:58Losing is not an option
00:27:59Does that mean you have to make one of those fancy snail dishes?
00:28:03I hope not
00:28:04No
00:28:04We make what we know
00:28:07And for this competition, only Troy and I will be competing against Hector
00:28:11Oh
00:28:13Luckily for us, we have the Davenport secret weapon
00:28:17Get ready for a Michelin bootcamp
00:28:19Critics like Charles DuPont want mastery
00:28:22Not novelty
00:28:22They don't want to just taste something
00:28:25They want an experience
00:28:27That tells a story
00:28:30A dish that says who we are
00:28:32Exactly
00:28:34I've got some ideas
00:28:35Maybe we can listen to my ideas for once
00:28:39Well
00:28:40That's enough for me for one day
00:28:42I'm off the clock
00:28:43Good night
00:28:46You two, behave
00:28:47I'm leaving before this turns into a cage match
00:28:55I'm all ears
00:29:18You scared the shit out of me
00:29:21What's going on?
00:29:22You're leaving so soon?
00:29:24I thought we were done for the day
00:29:25You are not done until we say you're done
00:29:28I know my name
00:29:29That's harsh
00:29:30I've been putting in the work
00:29:31Harsh?
00:29:32Harsh is when you almost ruin our reputation in front of Charles DuPont
00:29:36Are you really going to do that to us?
00:29:39You're on thin ice, hermano
00:29:41So, here's how this is going to work from now on
00:29:44No more skipping out early
00:29:45No more laziness
00:29:47From now on you follow our rules
00:29:49Capisce?
00:29:50Yeah, what?
00:29:51Do you understand?
00:29:53Okay, okay, I hear you
00:29:55Do you?
00:29:56Because right now you look like someone who needs to go home and think very carefully
00:30:00You've done enough damage for one day, Hector
00:30:03So go home
00:30:04But you better come back a better man tomorrow
00:30:07Or don't bother coming back at all
00:30:10Okay, I'll do better
00:30:12I promise
00:30:15Okay, get back to work, guys
00:30:26We need a menu with heart
00:30:29Heart is good
00:30:30This is still a competition
00:30:31We need a winning dish
00:30:33It needs to represent both of us
00:30:35It needs to mean something
00:30:37It will
00:30:39Let's try both dishes
00:30:40Fine
00:30:41Let's get the ingredients
00:30:59Tell me you did not just let the door slam
00:31:01What?
00:31:02What?
00:31:08Why's the door locked?
00:31:09The door locks automatically
00:31:24This is really bad
00:31:25How was I supposed to know?
00:31:27I would have fixed it if you would have told me already
00:31:28I believe it was one of the first things that I told you
00:31:36Yep, no service
00:31:38Great, we're going to be stuck here until tomorrow
00:31:40Just take a deep breath
00:31:41Take a deep breath
00:31:43I can't be calm right now, okay?
00:31:45It's freezing in here
00:31:46And to make matters worse, we still don't have a dish yet
00:31:49I mean, they're both wrong
00:31:51They're not wrong
00:31:52They're not wrong
00:31:53They're just not us
00:31:56Yet
00:31:57Us?
00:32:00It has to be something that we build together
00:32:12Here, you're freezing
00:32:13I'm fine
00:32:17I know I push you
00:32:20Constantly
00:32:22But
00:32:24You stood up for me
00:32:25In front of DuPont
00:32:27And you didn't have to do that
00:32:30Thank you
00:32:32I want to
00:32:40I'm not a saint Korean
00:32:41I'm not a romantic
00:32:43I don't see pretty things
00:32:44I'm used to being in charge
00:32:46Of everything
00:32:47The kitchen, menu, myself
00:32:49But when it comes to you
00:32:53I just get in my head
00:32:54And the only thing I want to do
00:32:56Is to
00:33:06Sorry, I just needed to shut you up
00:33:09But
00:33:10You're shot
00:33:14I don't want to
00:33:25You're here
00:33:26I don't want to
00:33:29You're
00:33:29I don't want to
00:33:29You're Bobby
00:33:30You're
00:33:32You're
00:33:36You're
00:33:39There you are.
00:33:40Hey, are you guys still here?
00:33:43You left the front door wide open.
00:33:59I'm not even going to ask.
00:34:01We're just trying to keep warm.
00:34:03All right, Pinocchio, let's get out of here before we all freeze to death.
00:34:11Why don't you try the beach next time?
00:34:13I'm not dragging your popsicles out of there again.
00:34:15Okay, this stays between us.
00:34:17Already erased from my memory.
00:34:19Troy?
00:34:23Where's my notebook? I left it right here.
00:34:35You have something to show us?
00:34:37Yes, sir.
00:34:38I thought about what you both said last night, and it really inspired me.
00:34:42I stayed up late thinking of new ideas that I think you'll love.
00:34:46Show us what you got, Hector.
00:34:48Dish number one, spring tilapia.
00:34:57This is really good.
00:35:00It reminds me of the one that Troy used to make.
00:35:03But better.
00:35:04It's actually excellent.
00:35:09Got anything else?
00:35:13Dish number two, and my personal favorite, pasta carbonara.
00:35:24Oh my god.
00:35:27Finally!
00:35:28Hector, what the hell did you do?
00:35:38Troy's notebook.
00:35:39See?
00:35:40I'm not as dumb as I look.
00:35:42Apparently not.
00:35:44You know, if you keep this up,
00:35:47we might actually have a shot at winning.
00:36:07I know I left it here.
00:36:35I think this is why we weren't friends in culinary school.
00:36:39You were in St. Culinary school?
00:36:44Hey.
00:36:45You know, I was just thinking about last week.
00:36:47Hey.
00:36:48Hey.
00:36:48What's wrong?
00:36:50You didn't just pick this location.
00:36:54Troy.
00:36:55You positioned it.
00:36:57I can explain.
00:37:01I can explain, okay?
00:37:03It was a strategic problem.
00:37:05I'm a chef.
00:37:05You were studying me.
00:37:07Did Julian put you up to this?
00:37:10Don't get it twisted, okay?
00:37:11I never planned on us.
00:37:13That's the problem.
00:37:14I trusted you.
00:37:16I thought last night meant something.
00:37:18It did.
00:37:19It does.
00:37:20Please.
00:37:21Then why does it feel like you've been sharpening a knife behind my parents?
00:37:24Troy.
00:37:26Try.
00:37:37Try.
00:37:38Wait.
00:37:40Try.
00:37:48Uh-oh.
00:37:49Looks like there's trouble in paradise.
00:37:51Now's our time to strike.
00:37:53What's the knife?
00:37:54Need to make a call.
00:37:57Hey, it's me.
00:37:59I'd like to report a restaurant.
00:38:01We had numerous health code violations.
00:38:04Yeah, Corinne's corner on Main Street.
00:38:07Shut it down.
00:38:08Make it clean.
00:38:09You got less than an hour.
00:38:11Hurry.
00:38:13Who was that?
00:38:15A friend of mine.
00:38:17I don't know, Julian.
00:38:18This feels illegal.
00:38:20Like, this could really bury them.
00:38:24That's the point.
00:38:26Right.
00:38:37Hey.
00:38:39You scared me.
00:38:41I wasn't going anywhere.
00:38:43I just needed some space.
00:38:45Please, Troy.
00:38:46Just let me explain.
00:38:49I'm listening.
00:38:51Look.
00:38:52I know beat Troy to have important sounds.
00:38:56Brutal.
00:38:57And I did write it, but not for the reasons that you think.
00:39:01In culinary school, every guy wanted to be you.
00:39:04Okay?
00:39:05You could turn an ordinary dish into something unforgettable.
00:39:10I watched you cook and I thought you were a master.
00:39:15So yeah, I wrote, beat Troy down on boards.
00:39:18Not because I wanted to destroy you.
00:39:22I needed something to chase.
00:39:25You're the reason I opened up my restaurant.
00:39:28And took out a loan I couldn't afford.
00:39:33I've been working 16 and a half hour days trying to be half as good as you.
00:39:40Promise me something.
00:39:43That we will stop trying to be who everyone wants us to be.
00:39:46And we'll just be ourselves.
00:39:47Together.
00:39:50Don't stop running.
00:40:02Or something else.
00:40:04Then .

00:52:24Where culinary mastery is put to the test
00:52:27in front of three judges and only one restaurant will win.
00:52:33Representing the Davenport,
00:52:36Knoxville's most talked about fine dining room,
00:52:38we have up-and-coming superstar,
00:52:41Chef Hector Ramirez.
00:52:47And representing Corinne's Corner,
00:52:50the fastest-growing neighborhood favorite in the city,
00:52:53Chef Corinne Miller.
00:52:58And her partner in craft, Chef Troy Davenport.
00:53:05Now, both of these teams will present two dishes tonight.
00:53:09One signature dish that will define their kitchen.
00:53:13And one community dish that will define their story.
00:53:18I don't know about you,
00:53:20but I'm getting hungry talking about all this food.
00:53:22So let's get cooking!
00:53:24Yeah!
00:53:40Hey.
00:53:41Breathe.
00:53:42You got this.

00:55:03Wow!
00:55:06I was not expecting that.
00:55:08This might just be the best burger I've ever tasted.
00:55:21And the salmon?
00:55:23I mean, it's tasty.
00:55:25It was cooked well.
00:55:26I just feel it was missing personality.
00:55:33Yeah, I'm still searching for a pulse.
00:55:40Corrine just put the Davenport in a tight corner by sweeping the signature round.
00:55:47Now, let's see if Chef Hector can redeem himself with his community dish.
00:55:57I'm proud of you.
00:55:58It's not over yet.
00:56:06Round two.
00:56:07The community dish.
00:56:08Chefs.
00:56:11Show us who you are.
00:56:13Chef, please tell us about your dish.
00:56:16We didn't have much growing up, but there was always food on the table.
00:56:22This is my mother's lentil soup.
00:56:32Chefs.
00:56:34Begin.
00:56:39You can't serve this.
00:56:40It's bland, safe, dead.
00:56:43Julian's right.
00:56:44This bisque won't beat Corrine's stupid story.
00:56:47You need something emotional.
00:56:50So, what do you want?
00:56:51The pozole.
00:56:53The thing you made last night.
00:56:54You want me to cook my food?
00:56:56Yes, Hector.
00:56:57It's the only dish you've ever made with any kind of soul.
00:57:00It's the only thing that'll compete.
00:57:01We're losing.
00:57:02If you want to save us, then cook the damn bisole.
00:57:06Okay?
00:57:07Let's go.
00:57:11Make it like last night.
00:57:13But better, actually.
00:57:21This is our shot.
00:57:22We got this.
00:58:00That is the end of round two.
00:58:11Oh, my God.
00:58:13I'm gonna pass that.
00:58:14I've been all in my business.
00:58:15We can get out of here.
00:58:17Chefs, present your dishes.
00:58:21Chef Corrine.
00:58:22This is my mother's lentil soup.
00:58:24We didn't have much, but it fed us both body and soul.
00:58:28I'd like to share it with you all tonight.
00:58:36I'd like to share it with you all tonight.
00:58:37Comfort.
00:58:39Soulful.
00:58:40Exactly what this round is all about.
00:58:51Chef Hector.
00:58:52I'm not looking safe tonight.
00:58:56This is my abueless recipe.
00:58:58Sunday mornings, eight kids, one pot.
00:59:01Always enough.
00:59:03It's my home on a plate.
00:59:06Okay.
00:59:07That was smooth.
00:59:08Real smooth.
00:59:11This is remarkable.
00:59:13When dare I even say unbelievable.
00:59:17Oh, no.
00:59:20There's a reason why we kept that guy around,
00:59:22and there it is.
00:59:24Both dishes are extraordinary,
00:59:25but one edge is fourth with depth and aroma and boldness.
00:59:35Round winner.
00:59:40Round winner.
00:59:41Hector Ramirez.
00:59:43Round winner.
00:59:44Round winner.
00:59:53However, this competition awards points based on two dishes.
00:59:59Now, as per the rules, the overall winner is the chef whose dishes most faithfully reflect their restaurant's identity and
01:00:11mission.
01:00:11One, two, three, three, four, three, one, once pi pin the situation.
01:00:21Your winner, by cumulative decision, is...
01:00:27Two candidates.
01:00:31One, two, three, four, four, three, four.
01:00:38Corner!
01:00:49What? This is real!
01:00:52I beg your pardon.
01:00:55You're embarrassing yourself.
01:00:57You're right!
01:01:06Whoa! Whoa!
01:01:10This is my town!
01:01:11There's nothing without me!
01:01:12Not anymore!
01:01:14Security, remove it!
01:01:16Get off me! Get off!
01:01:18This is my town!
01:01:36Yikes.
01:01:39Um...
01:01:39Listen.
01:01:41He didn't deserve me,
01:01:43and you two didn't deserve what I did.
01:01:48I'm so ashamed of all the things that I said and I let happen,
01:01:52and I'm really, really sorry, Troy.
01:01:58I forgive you.
01:02:04And I'm happy for you, too.
01:02:07Truly.
01:02:14That feels better than a victory.
01:02:16I'll take the words right out of my mouth.
01:02:25Chef Corinne.
01:02:27Chef Troy.
01:02:30I need to thank you.
01:02:32And I'm sorry for being part of all the shit Julian pulled.
01:02:37Tonight...
01:02:38I cooked who I really am.
01:02:41That dish...
01:02:42It was my abuela's love.
01:02:44For the first time in my life, I felt like a real chef.
01:02:48This is exactly what I saw when you first started working with me.
01:02:52I'm glad you found your way back.
01:03:04This whole experience made me realize the kind of chef I need to be.
01:03:08Then you're on the right path.
01:03:11Now I gotta go make sure my abuela didn't throw away all her old recipes.
01:03:22Damn!
01:03:23That food ran in here like his ass is on fire!
01:03:26What's the problem with that was all they did?
01:03:27It's just unpredictable.
01:03:28I don't think that's what happened, Bart.
01:03:30You never know.
01:03:32So...
01:03:33Now what?
01:03:47Chef behind.
01:03:49Table 12's up.
01:03:50Let's move.
01:03:55Hi.
01:03:56How's it going?
01:04:08Got a delivery for...
01:04:10Chef Corinne Miller.
01:04:18Oh my god.
01:04:20What is it?
01:04:24We did it.
01:04:35Sorry.
01:04:36I only kissed my girlfriend.
01:04:40So?
01:04:40Do you want to be my girlfriend?
01:04:42Yes.
01:04:43I'll be your girlfriend.
01:04:46Now kiss me.
01:04:54You look the best.
01:05:00So...
01:05:03I don't see your girlfriend who has come yet.
01:05:07Don't be good.
01:05:07I'm sorry.
01:05:07You're not a friend.
01:05:07You're not a friend.
01:05:08You.
01:05:08You
