00:02Não há ninguém aqui. As estrelas estão vazias.
00:05Sim, é exatamente por isso que você está lá. Não é New York.
00:09Brookes Pointe Harbor é o perfecto lugar para ir low.
00:12A reserva está na terra de gosling.
00:14Jason, relaxa, relaxa, relaxa.
00:17Try to enjoy it while you can.
00:18Vamos ter você em Corwin Brothers antes que você conheça.
00:21How many times have I got to say it?
00:23I'm done with it.
00:25Or...
00:25It's done with me.
00:27Either way, my career is over.
00:28This is all gonna blow over.
00:31People are gonna forget about some stupid mistake the minute the next celebrity scandal breaks.
00:35That mistake was on national TV.
00:38Live, on prime time.
00:40They're not just gonna forget.
00:41Yeah.
00:42And you shouldn't have been in that competition in the first place.
00:45Especially after what happened to your brother.
01:01Hi.
01:02I'm Laura.
01:04Welcome to the Brookes Pointe.
01:05How can I help you?
01:07You don't want an elevator.
01:10All right then, Mr. Gosling.
01:13Uh, no relation.
01:15Let's get you checked in.
01:16So are you in town for the festival?
01:18What festival?
01:19Is there always smoke billowing out of your kitchen?
01:22That's just five alarm dennings.
01:24Doing what she does best.
01:25Okay, well what she does best is gonna set us all up in flames.
01:29Mr.
01:32Thank you for calling Brookes Pointe in.
01:34This is Laura speaking.
01:36Oh, stupid hunk of junk.
01:39Okay, that hunk of junk is actually doing its job.
01:44Are you trying to burn the place down?
01:46Um, no, actually I'm not.
01:49Everything's under control.
01:50I'm just doing a little bit of baking here.
01:52Whoops!
01:52There we go.
01:55And, uh...
01:58Some scones.
01:59All under control.
02:01I see why they call you five alarm dennings.
02:05Hi.
02:06I'm so sorry.
02:07I don't normally greet guests this way.
02:10I'm Abby.
02:11I run Brookes Pointe in.
02:14I didn't realize smoke inhalation was part of the complimentary service.
02:18The next show starts at five.
02:20Um, and you are?
02:24Jay.
02:28I knew if I followed the smoke I'd find my granddaughter.
02:32Gran!
02:32Are you alright?
02:33Is everything okay?
02:34I was gonna ask you the same thing.
02:36Oh.
02:37Oh.
02:38Hello dear.
02:39I'm Alice.
02:40I see you've already met my granddaughter.
02:43Yeah.
02:43I'm hoping that our home will suffice for your temporary home away from home.
02:48Why won't we be staying alone?
02:50Oh, I hope you reconsider.
02:52The smoke will clear dear at all.
02:54If you'd like to follow me I can get you settled in.
02:57Into one of our non-smoking rooms.
03:01How are ya?
03:03Okay.
03:04Come.
03:05You good?
03:07Yeah.
03:11Well Grant, I don't know if it's such a good idea that I take over for Matilda as chef.
03:16I think that you can do anything you set your mind to.
03:24What are your thoughts on hiring an extra set of hands, just one person to help Brad out?
03:29Because I know he's run off his feet, he's so busy he doesn't have time to fix everything.
03:35Grant, is everything okay?
03:37Oh yes.
03:40Well.
03:41Grant, what is it?
03:42Do you need an ambulance?
03:46The in's out of money.
03:47I've used my personal savings to balance the books for over a year.
03:53And I've neglected paying the property taxes for a few years.
03:58I wanted to tell you, but I really thought I had everything under control.
04:04It's okay, I'm sure it's not that bad.
04:07Oh, it's worse.
04:09This is my home.
04:11And I can't even imagine living anywhere else.
04:14Oh Abby, I'm so sorry.
04:16Grant, it's okay, I know.
04:18I know this is your home.
04:19I...
04:21Let me take a look at the books.
04:22I'm sure I can shuffle some numbers around.
04:25$43,000 is an awful lot of shuffling.
04:28Leave it with me.
04:29I'll think of something.
04:30I promise.
04:32Okay?
04:38You have one saved voice message.
04:44Hey.
04:45Just about to board.
04:47Wanted you to know the meeting went great.
04:49They loved our ideas.
04:50Man, there's the craziest sunset at the airport.
04:53Makes me excited for tomorrow.
04:54I'll call you when we land.
04:58Oh, great.
05:01Nice to see you too.
05:03Sorry, I was just hoping to do some thinking on my love seat for a bit.
05:06Your love seat?
05:08Didn't see your name on here.
05:09No, not my name, but my parents.
05:11They used to hang out here quite a bit.
05:13This was kind of their spot.
05:17Anyway, I don't want to interrupt your cell phone time, so...
05:20Plenty of room for two.
05:21Thank you.
05:28I'm sorry about your parents.
05:30Oh, it happened a long time ago.
05:34I wear their wedding ring so I feel closer to them.
05:38I always feel so calm here.
05:41I bet your lungs do.
05:43Five alarm.
05:45I guess I'll never live that one down.
05:49Listen, about earlier, I'm sorry for the way things were handled.
05:52I know you were just trying to help.
05:54I shouldn't have been so rude.
05:56I was just on edge.
05:58It was a long trip.
05:59Thanks.
06:01So, where did you travel from?
06:03New York.
06:04Okay.
06:05And what brings you here?
06:06Free will.
06:08Just somebody else's.
06:10Okay.
06:11Before you leave, though, you have to do yourself a favor.
06:14Try our diner's BLT.
06:16It's so, so good.
06:17It's to die for.
06:20Diner and dine.
06:21I can see how they go together.
06:23Oh, come on. You live in New York.
06:25You're telling me you don't like diners?
06:27New York is some of the finest restaurants in the world.
06:30Why would I eat at a diner?
06:32I've never eaten at a diner.
06:34Never will.
06:35You have never...
06:37Okay, you have to go to a diner.
06:39You have to go to ours and try the BLT.
06:41It's the best.
06:42No, I don't.
06:43And how do you know it's the best BLT?
06:46I mean, how many diner BLTs have you tried?
06:49Okay, easy, Mr. Corwin.
06:52Corwin.
06:55Gosling didn't last long.
06:57I guess my days of being undercover are over.
07:01You should tilt your nose down once in a while.
07:03Otherwise, you'll miss what's going on around you.
07:07Or where you're at.
07:09Okay, that's not fair.
07:10Whatever you've read about me, you have no clue.
07:15I'm not assuming anything.
07:16You've made quite an impression here on your own already.
07:23I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to offend you.
07:26Well, you did.
07:29Brooks Point Harbor means a lot to the people of this town.
07:33You don't get to come here and hide out from whatever terrible things you've done
07:36and then judge anything you're not willing to experience yourself.
07:42Anyway, I have somewhere I have to be.
08:00Take a wheel of a ready and about five. Coffee?
08:03Uh, no thanks. I'm running on natural jitters today.
08:10The camera adds ten pounds, even to a mare.
08:12Too bad they didn't come off after the picture.
08:16Heard you run into a bit of trouble at the inn.
08:18Matilda's replaced when bailing on you?
08:20That can't be good for business.
08:22It's all under control, Mayor Joan.
08:24Thanks.
08:25Order's up, Abby.
08:27Hey Joan, have you seen this?
08:30Christmas Chef Showdown?
08:32Grand prize of $50,000?
08:34Nothing to sniff at, huh?
08:36They want a mystery competitor.
08:38A local amateur cook to compete against their big name chefs.
08:41Amateur? As in no talent required?
08:44It is a televised event.
08:46I could do this.
08:50I've alarmed Ennings!
08:51In a cooking contest!
08:54What, scorched sardines again?
08:56That fish was flambéed.
08:58I don't think so.
09:00But if you did participate,
09:02having one of our oldest businesses would be great in my advertising.
09:06Yes, it would be amazing advertising for the inn.
09:09Plus $50,000!
09:11You have to win to get that.
09:20Thank you.
09:23You know what?
09:24I'll take two strawberry milkshakes to go, please.
09:27Thanks.
09:31Do you have to keep playing with that thing?
09:34I don't have to.
09:35But if I don't fix it, this whole place will burn down.
09:37I'll try to be faster.
09:38Thank you.
09:41Strawberry milkshakes?
09:43Uh-oh, what's going on?
09:44Oh, you know, it's Christmas.
09:47You two have been doing amazing work lately.
09:49And?
09:50And I'm hoping you're willing to do a little extra hard work this coming week.
09:54So we're not hiring more help?
09:56What does extra mean?
09:57Just a couple of hours a day.
10:00I'm planning on entering the cooking competition in the festival.
10:04What? More charred cheesecake?
10:07Very funny.
10:08So take a look at this.
10:09They are looking for a local contestant.
10:11If I'm selected, there will be two other competitors,
10:14which means I have actually really good odds at winning this thing.
10:17You know the other two competitors are actual chefs, right?
10:20Professionals.
10:21I know that, but they specify that they want local talent,
10:24which means they probably just want some charm and fun,
10:27which I will bring.
10:28How exactly are you going to learn to cook in a week?
10:32Online tutorials.
10:34Matilda's cookbooks.
10:35I have a kitchen at my disposal.
10:38Okay, I know I'm not the best chef in the world.
10:41I get a little distracted.
10:42But if I have something to focus on,
10:45I'll be able to move mountains.
10:47Okay, you know I'm all about self-improvement
10:49and you becoming less of a fire hazard.
10:52But why on earth do you want to do this?
10:57We need this $50,000.
11:00The Inn's in a little bit of trouble.
11:02I was speaking with my grandma, who's been trying to balance the books.
11:06But it's bad.
11:08It's really bad.
11:09But if I win this prize money, this will at least bring us out of the red.
11:14The Inn actually close?
11:16Not if I win this competition.
11:19I guess I could help Laura out with the guest services.
11:22Seems easy enough.
11:23I can help Brad with repairs.
11:25Have you ever held a hammer in your life?
11:26A hammer? What's a hammer?
11:29What's a girl to do?
11:31I know, I know this is a really big ask.
11:34But I can't do this without you.
11:38Okay, first step.
11:41Name.
11:42Abby Denny's.
11:44Easy.
11:45That's a lot of fine print.
11:47Are you a professional chef?
11:49I'm gonna go ahead and click the no box on that one.
11:52What's next?
11:54Application not processed until full payment of entrance fee received.
12:00$500?
12:03What?
12:03Who has $500 lying around?
12:05You could have a bake sale.
12:07Sell 500 burned scones.
12:09No, the application deadline is tonight at midnight.
12:11I don't have time to burn that many scones.
12:15Abby, no.
12:17You better get to cooking.
12:33I need you to teach me how to cook.
12:36I need you to teach me how to cook.
12:37I'm not a chef anymore.
12:39Whatever, you still know how to cook.
12:40And apparently I'm also a snob.
12:42I know I'm being a little pushy right now.
12:44And I'm sorry for the way I spoke to you earlier.
12:46You actually?
12:47Look, I'm not asking you to be my friend.
12:49I know I really irritate you.
12:51But what I am asking for is a teacher.
12:55I'm really hoping to enter a cooking competition
12:58in the By the Bay Christmas food festival next week.
13:00Food festival?
13:03Gary.
13:05Oh, come on.
13:06You're already bored out of your mind.
13:07You've been here for less than a day.
13:09You gotta find something to do.
13:11It's not gonna be you cooking.
13:12It's going to be me.
13:13And it's not like I need to cook for the president.
13:15I just need to learn how to not set things on fire
13:17and not poison anybody.
13:18Yeah, sorry, it's a steep learning curve.
13:22Gary.
13:23Yeah, it's your favorite client here.
13:25Just wondering why his overpaid lawyer
13:26dropped him off in the one place
13:27that's hosting a Christmas food festival.
13:30Call me back.
13:31So that's it?
13:33Look, it's within your best interest
13:35not to be associated with me right now.
13:37Is it true?
13:38Did you cheat on that cooking competition?
13:43It's not a tough question.
13:45No one's actually ever asked me that before.
13:46My brother's memory was on the line.
13:48I barely even remember making the decision.
13:50Do you regret it?
13:52Every day.
13:53People make mistakes all the time.
13:55Celebrities are not.
13:57Scandals like mine kill careers.
13:59I've completely undone everything
14:01that David worked so hard for.
14:03You can't bring your brother back,
14:04but you can do everything in your power
14:06to continue his legacy.
14:08I've been ousted by my own company.
14:11Okay, I'm completely toxic within the industry.
14:14Nobody wants me.
14:16I want you.
14:20If I agree to this,
14:22you gotta know it's gonna be long hours.
14:24Yes, yes, I'll do anything.
14:25It'll be demanding and stressful,
14:27and you're probably gonna hate me even more
14:29by the end of this.
14:30Yes.
14:31Yes.
14:33Thank you.
14:39This is gonna be a lot of hard work.
14:42Okay?
14:43Yes, chef.
14:44And we also need to find another kitchen.
14:46Away from the inn.
14:47You are far too distracting.
14:49I know just the place.
14:50Cheryl's behind the cafe across the street.
14:52Okay, we start first thing in the morning.
14:547am sharp.
14:56Do not be late.
14:57I will not be late.
15:08You're late.
15:10No, I'm two minutes early.
15:12You're not even dressed for work.
15:14Go and change into something less flirty.
15:17I'm wearing a blouse.
15:18I have to look half decent to run the inn.
15:20It's not suitable for a kitchen.
15:22Go and change into something else.
15:24And tie your hair up.
15:27Hurry!
15:28Or you're really gonna be late by the time you get back.
15:31Bloody egotistical.
15:38Hey, chef.
15:40So, do I pass the inspection now?
15:42Excellent.
15:44Okay.
15:45First things first.
15:46What have you got to prep for the competition?
15:48There are three different challenges.
15:49The appetizer, the main course with a side dish and a dessert.
15:53Okay.
15:53Number one is gonna be knife skills.
15:57This is a chef's knife.
15:59Ooh, I like this one.
16:00Put that down.
16:03Safety.
16:05Always safety.
16:06Got it.
16:09Hold the knife handle in the palm of your hands.
16:12And you want to keep your thumb pressed against the blade.
16:15You want to try and keep the knife on the chopping board.
16:19Smooth motions.
16:21Okay?
16:23Okay.
16:25Chef, do you ever think I'll be able to chop air like you do?
16:27No.
16:31Slow and easy.
16:33No rushing.
16:35You want the curve side down.
16:37This hand.
16:39You're gonna want it back here in the celery.
16:41Away from the blade.
16:43And then just slow, easy movements.
16:49Smaller, more uniform pieces.
16:51Right, right, so it looks nice.
16:54Chef, does celery bleed?
16:56No, celery does not bleed.
17:00Number two, no shortcuts.
17:03These distractions, they can get you really hurt.
17:06But cuts do happen.
17:09So number three, get used to blood.
17:12I'm gonna get the first aid kit.
17:15Hey, chef, I think we might have another problem.
17:18Why now?
17:19Whoa!
17:24It doesn't look deep.
17:26No, it's not that deep.
17:27No, I need stitches.
17:29Take care of that finger.
17:31I'm gonna need it in the future.
17:33You're the best.
17:34Thank you, Cheryl.
17:37If you're not gonna listen to me,
17:39there is no point in me teaching you.
17:41I am going to listen, I promise.
17:43Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa.
17:44No, lesson is done for today.
17:46What, we were just getting started.
17:48Your head is not in the game.
17:49And I need to reevaluate my plan.
17:52Study this tonight.
17:54The pitches will help you with your technique.
17:56Do you have one with dummies in the title?
17:58Dummies?
17:59Really?
18:00I wouldn't have agreed to help you if I thought that.
18:02Oh, now you got me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.
18:06Or maybe I'm still feeling lightheaded.
18:08There is a test in the morning.
18:11Okay, well, fingers crossed.
18:14Finger crossed that I don't amputate something tomorrow.
18:16That's not funny.
18:19Rule number four.
18:20No laughing in the kitchen.
18:22Preparing food for people is not a joke.
18:25It's an honor.
18:26Okay, why did you become a chef anyway?
18:28Be more occupied with yourself, Abby.
18:30If you want a chance at winning this competition,
18:32you need to find your purpose.
18:35Where's your focus at?
18:37Why do you need to win?
18:47Ah, not my friends' euchre.
18:50Ladies, enough with the table talk, please.
18:53Alice is my oldest friend.
18:55We don't table talk.
18:56We read each other's minds.
18:58Well, that's still cheating.
19:01Jason.
19:06I was just going to get some fresh air when I had the
19:08snapper cards at the table.
19:10You have good hearing.
19:11Well, they're here professionals.
19:13People who do anything to win.
19:15Yes. Fueled by tea and cookies.
19:17You have me at tea.
19:19Really? You're a tea connoisseur like the rest of us?
19:22Caffeine anything.
19:23I respect that.
19:24You were right.
19:25I need to focus on what's important.
19:29This?
19:31This right here is why I need to win this competition.
19:34The inn isn't just my home.
19:35It's a cornerstone in our community.
19:37And winning that prize money is going to keep it that way.
19:40Remember that for tomorrow's lesson.
19:45Jason, join us for a round.
19:47You should take my place.
19:48I have to make more tea.
19:50Can she make tea, Alice?
19:51Is that safe?
19:53Ha, ha, ha, ha.
19:56Have you played much euchre?
19:59Not much.
20:08Okay.
20:12Knuckles tucked.
20:14Thumb in.
20:23My grandkids are not going to believe I played cards with Jason Corwin.
20:29Would you be a dear and sign your cookbook for my granddaughter?
20:34Alice mentioned you were staying here.
20:37Perhaps now is not the best time.
20:48Thank you, dear.
20:52Well, it's been an absolute pleasure to meet you all.
20:56Thank you very much for the game.
21:05It's okay to let yourself grieve.
21:08It's better to feel the emotion than to try to sweep it away.
21:13Once you've felt the loss, you can begin to heal.
21:19Thank you, Alice.
21:21I just wish I knew how.
21:24Lean on your friends.
21:26You have more support than you know.
21:45So?
21:47Is he better than me?
21:54Good.
21:56Very good.
21:59Smaller slices.
22:00Remember?
22:00Uniform slices.
22:02Right.
22:03Right.
22:04So, why did you sneak away so early last night?
22:08Okay, the kitchen needs discipline and restraint.
22:11Not gossip.
22:12It's not gossip.
22:14I just...
22:14I saw you having fun last night.
22:16It was nice to see you let your hair down a little bit.
22:18Okay, just focus on the work.
22:20I'm trying to focus.
22:22Would you lighten up?
22:23I feel like I'm walking on eggshells here.
22:26Sorry, but this isn't the place to get personal.
22:28I'm just saying we don't have to spend the day chopping in brooding silence.
22:32You know?
22:33You can have some conversation with somebody who's trying to be your friend.
22:37You said you wanted a teacher, not a friend.
22:40Whoa.
22:41You played cards with my grandma last night.
22:43I'm sorry, we're friends now.
22:46Jason, you're helping me.
22:48Maybe I can help you a little bit.
22:49But, Abby, enough!
22:53Okay, now we are literally both walking on eggshells.
22:56Jason, why are you so hurt on yourself?
22:59Let's just clean up and move on.
23:05What are you doing?
23:06You are wound way too tight.
23:08You need to let loose a little bit.
23:10Stop it.
23:10Not until you drop one.
23:12On purpose.
23:13Abby, that is not gonna happen.
23:14You can't just shut down all the time.
23:15It's okay to laugh a little bit when life gets messy.
23:18I'm not gonna laugh.
23:19I'm ticked off.
23:21Well, that's a lot of anger over some broken eggs.
23:23You are the most-
23:24It's okay to be angry for a while.
23:26Grief is a process, but you can't just-
23:28Save it!
23:29Alright, I know all about grief.
23:31Why do you think I'm here when everything that ever meant anything to me is in New York?
23:35Yesterday you asked me why I became a chef.
23:37It was David's dream.
23:39We did everything together.
23:41Same school, same job.
23:42I didn't want to do anything else because I knew whatever we did together, we'd be greater.
23:48I didn't just lose David.
23:50I lost half of myself.
23:54Well, if that's true, then you still have half of yourself left.
23:57We can't choose what happens in our lives, but we can choose what happens moving forward.
24:02Maybe it's time that you find a new path.
24:05I don't know who I am without him.
24:08You're Jason Corwin.
24:10And that's enough.
24:12You don't need to figure out everything today, but you can start by being yourself.
24:17An imperfect human being like the rest of us.
24:20So, stew on that.
24:25Okay, how did that feel?
24:27Better than anger.
24:29Yes.
24:30Alright, what's next?
24:32I suppose scrambled eggs.
24:35Oh, sounds egg-cellent.
24:38That's a terrible pun.
24:40But I appreciate the egg-foot.
24:55Jinna, what are you doing in Brooks Point Harbor?
24:58Jason?
24:59Hey, you're the last person I thought I'd see here.
25:02Oh, a little higher on the left.
25:05What?
25:06I work for TNCN now.
25:08They're the festival sponsor.
25:10Roger sent me down to do setup and to ensure the town was acceptable for his stay.
25:14Well, that's generous.
25:15I call it difficult.
25:16Or belligerent.
25:18Well, off the record, he's even worse after his promotion.
25:21He's so busy with the Corwin brothers, too.
25:24Yeah.
25:25Or Roger.
25:26Right, well, I got a lot of Roger's details to take care of.
25:29It was nice seeing you.
25:42How's my favorite client?
25:44Did you set me up?
25:45Putting me in the same town as Roger?
25:47Jason, look, I knew about the festival, but I didn't know that he was running it.
25:51Although, this could be a good opportunity for you.
25:55Do you hear what you just said?
25:57He's no longer my rival.
25:58He's just moved straight on into enemy.
26:00I'm getting the first flight out of here.
26:06I'm not gonna sell to some big chain.
26:09Besides, I'm not gonna have to sell at all.
26:11Abby's gonna win the money and pay off our debts.
26:13Abby can barely boil water.
26:15She only has a chance of getting chosen because she's a pretty local with a historical cause.
26:19Plus, she'll be against top chefs.
26:21I believe in her.
26:23You need to think about what's best for the future.
26:25If I get you a substantial offer, you could live comfortably the rest of your life.
26:30You're impossible.
26:31So are you!
26:33Abby!
26:34Mary Joan, I hope to get that water boiling technique on lockdown.
26:38I'm sure you will.
26:43Fran, I'm sorry you had to listen to that nonsense.
26:46I'm afraid she has a point.
26:48The bank is not gonna wait forever before they foreclose.
26:51No, no, no, Grant.
26:52Grant, please don't sell just yet.
26:55The ads at the festival are gonna bring in more guests.
26:58Plus, my practicing has been going really well.
27:00Look at these cookies.
27:00They're not burnt. Not even one of them.
27:02I believe you can win.
27:04But the fact is, if you don't, I'll have no other choice but to sell.
27:19Oh.
27:24Come in.
27:29Abby, I, um...
27:33Is everything okay?
27:34Oh, yeah.
27:35Yeah, no, I'm...
27:36I'm just practicing outside of school hours, Chef.
27:39Cutting onions.
27:41Burning onions more likely.
27:43The pan is way too hot.
27:45Might as well just throw it out and start again.
27:47Right.
27:48I forgot.
27:49Medium-low heat for caramelization, right?
27:51Right.
27:52Hey, do you want a glass?
27:53I may not know the difference between my kale and my collards, but...
27:57I take my wine very seriously.
28:02Cheers.
28:06Come on in.
28:14I see you have all the big names out tonight.
28:16It's good that you're doing the research.
28:21Abby, you're not cutting onions anymore.
28:22What's up?
28:26I told you finances were tight.
28:29If I don't win this competition, my grandma's gonna have to sell the inn to one of those big chain
28:33motels in town.
28:35It's a lot of pressure to put in yourself.
28:38And that's just the half of it.
28:40You know, if she has to sell, I'll lose my job.
28:43My grandma's in the early stages of Parkinson's.
28:46And this is her last connection to my parents and my grandpa, too.
28:52So...
28:52It's just really important for her mental health that she stay in the inn.
29:00Why do you...
29:02You keep doing that?
29:03Where's your necklace?
29:06I used the rings to raise the entrance fee for the competition.
29:10So if I lose, the rings are gone, too.
29:15How about that?
29:16Dinner and a show.
29:18It would be great for distraction management.
29:20The key is to breathe.
29:22Quiet the mind.
29:23The competition is gonna be chaotic and noisy.
29:26So you might as well get used to it.
29:28Should I get some wooden spoons and pots and pans for your enjoyment?
29:33Hands off, I swear.
29:48Okay, not bad.
29:50I'm sorry.
29:51It definitely could have used a lot more cheese.
29:54No apologies, no excuses.
29:56Whatever you put in front of someone is your masterpiece.
29:59Be proud of it.
30:01Okay, chef, honest opinion.
30:03What did you think of this masterpiece?
30:07The pasta kidda used two more minutes, but other than that, it was pretty good.
30:12I have a question for you about your competition.
30:16How did you get disqualified?
30:19My popovers didn't rise two minutes before the buzzer went off and my sous chef offered his rosemary potatoes.
30:27Marcus later denied that he offered them to me and that he played any part in it.
30:31I was publicly shamed and he got his own TV show.
30:35That doesn't seem right.
30:36I shouldn't have been in the competition anyway.
30:38I was not in a good place after my brother died, but Roger persuaded me to do it to honor
30:44David's memory.
30:47Well, I never had the pleasure of knowing David, but I think Jason Corwin's pretty great.
30:55Well, I should get going.
30:587am shower.
30:59Crash course on main courses.
31:03You need to make sure you save the inn.
31:06Keep tomorrow night open for a field trip.
31:10I think you and I could use some fresh air after all this smoke inhalation that's been going on.
31:14Good. The old trip it is.
31:16Great.
31:17I'll pick you up at 8.
31:27I'm gonna regret this.
31:32It's beautiful.
31:35It's my favorite place to see the town at night.
31:39It's so calm and quiet.
31:42I've not seen anything like it in the city.
31:45There's so many stars.
31:48It's a hidden gem.
31:52This is magical.
31:54Thank you.
31:55Here, let's pretend me and you.
32:00That Christmas was made for two.
32:20Hmmm...
32:21Wow.
32:22This is beautiful.
32:23I would have killed to have produce like this as a chef.
32:26Carrots.
32:27I just want carrots.
32:35. . .
32:35. . .
32:42Looks like the TNCA crew has arrived.
32:45I'm going to let Warch with my . . .
32:48Come join?
32:49I've actually got some air in the store.
32:51Okay.
32:52Will I catch you later?
32:53Yeah, sure.
33:01. .
33:04I need you out there
33:06The rooms are ready to go
33:07But I'm not sure they're checking in
33:09What?
33:13Whatever the guests want, they get
33:14We have to make sure everybody's happy
33:16Matilda's RV broke down
33:17She won't be back for a few days
33:19Okay, we'll need to organize the meal vouchers
33:21For everybody until she gets back
33:22Hmm, meal vouchers?
33:25For that diner?
33:26Is this some kind of joke?
33:27Merry Christmas!
33:28My name's Abby Dennings
33:30I'm the manager here at Brooks Point
33:31You are the mystery cook
33:32On our Christmas chef showdown
33:34What?
33:36Did I get selected?
33:38You haven't heard?
33:39No
33:40Somebody from my team was supposed to contact Joan
33:42And then Joan was supposed to contact you
33:44And somewhere I must have fallen through the cracks
33:45But congratulations, you have been selected
33:49Thank you, thank you so much
33:51I'm Dr. Evans, VP of Communications
33:53And Executive Producer
33:54At the National Cooking Network
33:56Well, it's so lovely to meet you, Mr. Evans
33:59We're so excited to have you here
34:00I'm sure you are now
34:01I only agreed to these accommodations
34:04Because I was told they include breakfast and dinner
34:08Here at the inn
34:09Now, I'm having a very important line to wine and dine with tonight
34:13And if that kitchen is not running
34:15I'll be more than happy to find somewhere else to stay
34:18I'm taking the entire crew with me
34:20You know what?
34:21That won't be necessary
34:22Our chef has just had a slight delay outside of town
34:24But surely...
34:25And Abby has hired an even better chef
34:26Laura?
34:27Excellent
34:27Problem solved
34:29Mr. Evans, wait
34:30I've been waiting for too long, Ms. Dunnings
34:33Now, are you able to provide dinner or not?
34:36Yes, we'll have dinner ready for you at 7 o'clock tonight
34:39Well then, it looks as if I'm checking in after all
34:43Wonderful
34:46Is there anyone to pick up my luggage?
34:48Oh, absolutely
34:52Laura, why did you say that?
34:54I panicked
34:55We couldn't let him leave
34:56All right, stay here and check in the rest of our guests
34:58And I have to go prep dinner service
35:00Do you want me to call Jason?
35:01Nope
35:02No, I got this
35:08Welcome to the Brooks Point Inn
35:14Abby, what's going on?
35:20Sorry, but I tried
35:21Abby, no buts
35:23It's like everything I told you over the last week has just disappeared into thin air
35:26Jason, that's not true
35:27I'm just trying
35:28Jason
35:29Jason, put me down
35:30I have to cook dinner
35:31Take your breath
35:32What's going on?
35:34Matilda isn't back
35:36But Roger Evans is here
35:37And he's here with his entire crew
35:38And he's threatening to leave
35:39If I don't have dinner ready for them tonight
35:41Take a breath
35:43The festival's a few days away
35:45And I thought I had this whole cooking thing in the bag
35:47But then I got here and I panicked
35:48And there's no way I'm going to win that festival
35:51And my grandma's going to have to sell this inn
35:52And it's
35:59I needed to breathe
36:04Why didn't you just call me?
36:05Because you don't work here
36:07And honestly, I didn't know if you'd come
36:10After everything we've been through this week
36:12You think I'd abandon you now?
36:13Abby, you're the only reason I'm still here
36:15Jason, I wanted your help, but I
36:19Take this
36:23Every chef needs one
36:27It's amazing
36:36No
36:41Jason, I don't know what to say
36:42Well, that is a first
36:46How long do you cook chicken supreme?
36:49Until it's done
36:51They're sheeps
37:07That's a good
37:09Where you're possible to eat your wash
37:12Thank you
37:13The plates are empty
37:14I practically looked clean
37:19What a rush
37:20Nothing like it
37:22Jason, I can't thank you enough
37:24You held your own in there
37:26You should be proud of yourself
37:27Wow, this is a little weird
37:29I kind of miss you yelling at me
37:31I never yelled at you
37:33Okay, but you wanted to though
37:34Wanting to is very different
37:36You've done wonders for my patients
37:39You were right
37:40I didn't think I was ready
37:41To step back into dinner service
37:43But I actually had a lot of fun
37:45If it wasn't for you
37:46I never would have found my way
37:47Back to the kitchen
37:59I can fill in for Matilda
38:00Until she comes back
38:02That way we can carry on doing this
38:04And you can keep on training
38:05Really?
38:08No
38:09No, I'm so grateful
38:10For everything you've done
38:12But
38:13I can't afford to hire
38:14A Michelin star chef
38:23There
38:25Now you've paid me
38:26We're even
38:27It was worth every penny
38:32Pardon me
38:34Didn't mean to interrupt
38:36Hello, Roger
38:37Jason
38:40You working here?
38:42What a surprise
38:43No, Jason doesn't work here
38:47Everyone's wondering where you've been
38:49And here you are
38:52Well, thank you both for a delightful dinner
38:54Maybe I'll have Chanel drop off your signed contract
38:56At the front desk
38:57Although I'm not entirely certain
38:59I'll be proceeding with the competition
39:01What?
39:04I need this
39:05Sivarn Sol has pneumonia
39:07Which leaves me with Clara Tasker
39:09And you
39:10Now I need a professional second chef
39:12Before my audience
39:14I need
39:15Wow
39:16You're a local caller
39:18And I know you hate every single project I do
39:20But you are back in the kitchen, aren't you?
39:22Oh, Jason would love to step in
39:24Done?
39:26Tomorrow
39:27Two o'clock
39:29Okay
39:30I know I shouldn't have jumped in
39:31But this will give you a chance to clear your name
39:33Abby, I don't want to compete against you
39:35Jason
39:36You are at your happiest when you are cooking in a kitchen
39:39You belong on that stage
39:43Do this for you
39:51That's great
39:54Okay, and turn right
39:55Okay
39:57Go in
39:58You're almost there
39:59Nearly
40:00Okay, and sit to your left
40:03No peeking
40:04I'm not
40:11And open your eyes
40:17So, what can I get for you guys today?
40:19Two BLTs on rye, please, Gail
40:21Sure
40:24What?
40:25The Jason Corwin in a diner?
40:27Well, I hear the BLTs are to die for
40:31I also hear Gail got some of your famous Christmas pudding
40:35Easy, you're not getting that recipe
40:37It's a family secret
40:41All right, so we've got two BLTs on rye
40:44And two strawberry shakes on the house
40:47And the famous pudding
40:57Unbelievable
41:01Abby, you need to get to the hospital
41:03Alice had a spell
41:10Grant, what happened?
41:12I tripped on the area rug in my room
41:14And I knocked my head on the table by the door
41:16Were you feeling dizzy again?
41:19No, Abby, I just tripped
41:21It's nothing to fuss about
41:22We don't know that
41:23Grant, I need you to be okay
41:26And I am okay, Abby, really
41:28But there is one thing I would like to get off my chest
41:34I've been diagnosed with Parkinson's
41:37My symptoms aren't severe at the moment
41:39But I haven't felt comfortable
41:41Leaving the inn for a few weeks
41:45I didn't tell you
41:46Because I didn't want you treating me any differently
41:50And Oscar
41:52I'm still going to beat you at Euchre
41:55Badly
41:56I know you will, Alice
41:58I know you will
41:59We'll face whatever's coming together
42:02As we always have
42:04Absolutely
42:11You should see him in the kitchen
42:13He's so confident
42:14He knows exactly what he's doing
42:16He's just, he's so passionate
42:19Abby, you like him
42:22He's just, he'll have to go back to his life eventually
42:28Last week you wanted me to stay
42:29Now you want me to come home
42:30What's changed?
42:32Roger's frozen line is hurting the brand
42:34The board wants you back on as chairman
42:37Why do I want to go back to everything that made me so miserable?
42:40Roger is hawking discounted frozen foods
42:42Made with the cheapest ingredients he can find
42:44From who knows what sources under your name
42:47That can't sit right with you, Jason
42:49Of course it doesn't
42:50Well then you need to head up your own company
42:57Email me their proposal
42:58I bumped into Roger
43:00Long story short, I'm in the TNCN competition
43:03What?
43:04Arneson pulled out
43:04They needed a replacement
43:05I'm here
43:06It was last minute
43:08Just be careful
43:09I know
43:14Abby Dennings
43:15Table for one
43:16Well look who it is
43:19What are you doing by yourself?
43:21The two lovebirds are over there by the pie table
43:25Laura and Brad
43:27Nice
43:29How about a date to the crepe table
43:32With a scandal ridden moody ex-chef
43:35I'm okay with scandal ridden and moody
43:37But what kind of crepes are we talking about?
43:40Ladies choice
43:41Whipped cream
43:43That's your choice
43:46Okay forget it, date's off
43:47What? Why?
43:49You can have fresh berries
43:50Cured ham
43:51Jams
43:52And you choose whipped cream
43:53You have the palate of a six year old
43:56Six year olds know what's up
44:00Howie
44:15There are so many people here right now
44:17The whole town is behind you
44:19A very charming Michelin star chef is also rooting for you
44:23Okay
44:25I'm ready when you are
44:26Ready
44:28Graham
44:30Halloween
44:31Are you sure you're up for this?
44:33You've had such a long day already
44:34Okay
44:36Either you want me to get out more
44:38Or you don't
44:39But don't go changing your mind on me
44:41I'm sorry
44:42We love you
44:44We love you
44:45Thank you
44:46Go get them
44:48Thank you
44:48We couldn't go get your steaks
44:50Okay, okay
44:55Hi
44:56I'm
44:57I'm Abby Dennings
44:58I'm the mystery contestant
45:00I'm just
45:00I'm a huge fan of yours
45:01It's nice to meet you
45:02So how long have you been cooking for?
45:05Oh, you know
45:06A couple weeks
45:09Good luck
45:15I don't know if I can do this

49:39Obrigado por ter me em sua casa, Chef Akin.
49:41Um executivo chefe versus
49:44an aspiring cook.
49:46Will win,
49:47se alguém ganha.
49:50Cuts. Let's take a break.
49:51Thank you very much.
49:55Eat some of the gingerbread cookies.
49:58They're so mad.
49:59Wave to my grandkids.
50:03Abby.
50:04Great work out there.
50:06Thanks. Jason was instrumental
50:07in helping me prepare for the competition.
50:09I bet.
50:10He's a massive flavor and texture.
50:12I miss working with him.
50:13You should speak with him.
50:15I know.
50:18Marcus.
50:20Would you excuse us?
50:22Nice chatting with you.
50:25You're doing wonderfully in this competition.
50:27Actually far beyond my expectations.
50:30Thank you.
50:31There is one little detail
50:33that's kind of bothering me though.
50:35When you signed the contract,
50:36you stated that you never hired anyone from TNCN
50:39and yet that's not entirely true, right?
50:42Yes, it is.
50:44You paid Jason to cook for your guests.
50:46I saw it with my own eyes.
50:49Are you talking about that pocket change thing?
50:51Because that was a total joke.
50:53And besides, Jason doesn't work for TNCN anymore.
50:55You canceled his show.
50:56Bonaire or not, he's still under contract.
51:00Which, for you my dear, constitutes a violation of contract.
51:05Roger, I have to compete in this competition.
51:08Oh no, no.
51:09I'm not kicking you out of the competition.
51:11However, I need Clara to win.
51:15So let me get this straight.
51:16You want me to lose on purpose?
51:18Or what, you'll expose me on national TV
51:21due to some clerical error?
51:22Do you really think that Jason can withstand another scandal?
51:28Because it is exactly what's going to happen
51:30if his involvement comes to light.
51:33Jason had nothing to do with this.
51:36I was the one who signed that contract.
51:38It doesn't matter.
51:39I will make the public believe what I want them to believe
51:42and perceptions of wrongdoing would only ensure
51:44that Jason never sets foot in a professional kitchen again.
51:48This is disgusting.
51:49This is business, Abby.
51:51I am looking forward to seeing your dessert, Stax.
51:58Welcome back.
51:59It's time for our final challenge.
52:01The sweetest part of any meal.
52:03Dessert.
52:04Contestants, 60 minutes, starting now.
52:12Um...う
52:12think of this year to get
52:17your Christmas wish? Oh,
52:20oh! Looking through
52:21the window at the
52:23falling snow Just like
52:25to hear me wierdre
52:27as a Christmas
52:29Join me, bring me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
52:33Hmm, it smells like Christmas on this stage.
52:37And the winner of the Christmas Chef Showdown,
52:41brought to you by the National Cooking Network,
52:43with the perfect score for dessert,
52:47Abby Dennings!
52:53What is it?
52:56It's cute!
52:57It's so nice, it's so nice!
53:01Wow!
53:02Our home cook beats two top chefs.
53:05Unbelievable!
53:06Tell us about your winning dessert.
53:08Uh, to be honest, I lucked out with the Christmas theme,
53:12and I made my grandma's Christmas mini puddings.
53:15My family has enjoyed this recipe for generations.
53:18I love you, Gran.
53:21Any plans for the $50,000?
53:25Yes.
53:27I plan to save our home, the historic Brooks Point Inn.
53:33Okay, cut.
53:34Abby, backstage.
53:39Did you really think I wasn't serious?
53:41That I wouldn't destroy him?
53:44I'm sending that press release.
53:47Oh, Roger, you know how older people are really bad with technology?
53:51What?
53:52Well, that's a myth.
53:54My friend Eloise just bought a new SD card.
53:56She likes to take a lot of videos.
53:58And she just sent me this.
53:59I know it's bogus.
54:00Of you threatening me.
54:01You know it's bogus.
54:02But do you think that Jason will stand in another schedule?
54:06Because that is exactly what's going to happen when this involvement comes to light.
54:11Jason has nothing to do with this.
54:13I signed that contract.
54:14It doesn't matter.
54:16Only...
54:24Mm, chips.
54:26Crisps.
54:29Where should I have pudding?
54:33Roger really is a piece of work.
54:36I'm sorry he did that to you.
54:40Because I always take the time to make it exactly the way my grandma does.
54:44Marcus?
54:45Hey, Jason.
54:47It was good to see you back in the kitchen.
54:49It was good to see you too.
54:51Jason, I'm sorry.
54:53I never had the guts to tell you the truth.
54:57Your popovers didn't rise.
54:59Because I replaced the all-purpose flour with pastry flour.
55:03You what?
55:04I sabotaged you.
55:06Then I suggested you use what I cooked.
55:08I appreciate you telling me that.
55:11Everyone knew your head wasn't in the game.
55:13That only made it easier for Roger.
55:15It was Roger's idea.
55:17He can read people.
55:19He saw I was ambitious and he promised me my own show if I did what he wanted.
55:24It was me that forgot the rules.
55:26I appreciate you telling me, but I have to take responsibility for my own play.
55:31I'm so sorry, Jason.
55:32Jason, I have no right to expect your forgiveness.
55:35Thank you.
55:41Awesome.
55:42There you go.
55:44Thank you.
55:45Thank you.
55:48You've got to be kidding me.
55:49This is a cruel Christmas joke.
55:55Jason, really?
55:57Well, I thought I would make it like the first time we met.
56:01Yeah, except there was a lot more smoke in here.
56:04Hi, I am Jason Corwin, your new head chef.
56:08Really?
56:08You're moving here?
56:11Well, I don't know.
56:12We have very high standards here at Corwin Brothers.
56:15Well, I promise to work towards one more star.
56:18Boss.
56:20Best Christmas ever.
56:23You got your parents' rings back?
56:25I did.
56:26Just in time for Christmas.
56:29I know we still have one more day, but I ran into Santa and he told me to give you
56:34this.
56:40So does this mean Santa likes to cook?
56:42Of course.
56:43How else would he get Mrs. Pauls to say yes?
56:46This book is inspired many great cooks.
56:51Many great cooks is right.
56:54Thank you.
56:56So, we don't normally exchange gifts until Christmas morning, but Gran wanted me to give you these.
57:03You care?
57:04Yeah.
57:05I've been practicing with Oscar.
57:11I love you.
57:14I love you too.
57:16Merry Christmas.
57:18Merry Christmas.
57:19Merry Christmas.
57:20Merry Christmas.
57:30Merry Christmas.
