00:00:05The game now begins!
00:00:45Congratulations to Sage Bennett on her historic fifth consecutive World Culinary Championship!
00:00:52The only chef ever to claim the title five years in a row!
00:01:04And today, the home group, the restaurant and hospitality empire Sage Bennett founded,
00:01:10has officially been ranked number one in the world!
00:01:15She's not just a culinary legend now, she's the queen of hospitality!
00:01:20Boss, the tethered clothes you asked for are ready.
00:01:27For years, I've given to others anonymously.
00:01:30But today, I'm looking for someone with genuine character.
00:01:34Someone worthy of becoming a partner in my top restaurant.
00:01:37The first person to offer me food gets a $10 million investment.
00:01:42Please, could someone spare a little food?
00:01:45Wait! Don't go over there!
00:01:47What's wrong, babe?
00:01:48That bum over there went to high school with me.
00:01:51If she spots me, she'll probably start begging me for money.
00:01:56Let's take a side street.
00:01:57Wait, you mean Sage? That's really her?
00:02:00You know her?
00:02:01She's my ex. We broke up when she left town for work.
00:02:04Wow, I never thought she'd end up on the street.
00:02:07I've gotta record this.
00:02:09Come on, if people find out a successful restaurant owner like me went to school with her,
00:02:14it'll screw up my image!
00:02:16Molly, that franchise you're so proud of only exists because I gave it to you.
00:02:22Please, could someone...
00:02:23Is there really no one out here worth believing in?
00:02:46Are you alright?
00:02:51Jasper!
00:02:52Jasper, why are you standing around?
00:02:54With some filthy hobo?
00:02:57You gave my bread to her?!
00:02:59Your bread?
00:03:00I bought it and you said you didn't want it.
00:03:04Even if I don't want it, it shouldn't be wasted on a sewer rat like her.
00:03:11She belongs on the ground picking up scraps.
00:03:14Daisy, that's enough!
00:03:15I'm your fiancee and you're taking some random bum side over me?!
00:03:20If you still want to marry me, then make her get lost.
00:03:23Right now.
00:03:25Well, I guess the wedding's off.
00:03:27What did you just say?
00:03:28You're calling off our engagement over some homeless freak?
00:03:32Do you have any idea what my father could do to her?
00:03:34Leave her out of this, Daisy.
00:03:36I made this decision a long time ago.
00:03:38Our engagement was nothing more than a family arrangement.
00:03:41You were never the woman I wanted to marry.
00:03:43My wife won't be someone who looks down on those with less than her.
00:03:46Someone who treats cruelty like a virtue.
00:03:49You bastard! How dare you!
00:03:52Your family's restaurant is already drowning financially.
00:03:55Without my father's investment, it'll be out of business in no time!
00:03:58Your father only angled for this marriage because he's after my family's recipes.
00:04:02And let me make this clear.
00:04:03Even if we're struggling, our restaurant isn't something he can just take away.
00:04:10You're gonna regret this!
00:04:14Dad, Jasper just called off our engagement!
00:04:17Buy out his family's restaurant now!
00:04:18I want you to strip him of everything!
00:04:30I'm sorry you got dragged into all this.
00:04:32Please, take the money.
00:04:33At least let me buy you a decent meal.
00:04:35No, I don't want all that money.
00:04:38Just a burger.
00:04:39Lady, that money could buy ten burgers!
00:04:42I only want one burger.
00:04:44Fresh off the grill.
00:04:46Still hot.
00:04:51Here you go.
00:04:52Hope it's what you wanted.
00:05:01Easy there.
00:05:02Take your time.
00:05:03And please, keep the money.
00:05:05It'll buy you plenty more burgers.
00:05:08You're a good man.
00:05:10It's nothing.
00:05:11His kindness.
00:05:12It's genuine.
00:05:15Then let me thank you properly.
00:05:18An exclusive ten billion dollar investment contract from Home Group?
00:05:22Covering the entire state?
00:05:25Nice try, but I'm not falling for this.
00:05:27You should take it back.
00:05:29Why would I be joking?
00:05:30My cousin works at Home Group.
00:05:32A contract like this can only be signed by the founder herself, the culinary legend.
00:05:36What?
00:05:37Don't tell me you're actually her?
00:05:38Well, you know what?
00:05:40Never mind.
00:05:41If you don't believe me, then tell me what else you want.
00:05:43Whatever it is, I'll make it happen.
00:05:45Something else?
00:05:46No, that's really not...
00:05:51Jasper, everything's ready here.
00:05:52When are you and Daisy getting back?
00:05:54Mom, Daisy and I, we've run into a bit of a situation.
00:05:57A situation?
00:05:58Did you two have a fight?
00:05:59Jasper, go make things right.
00:06:01Our restaurant is depending on the funding from this marriage.
00:06:03We cannot lose the bride.
00:06:05And we certainly can't survive the damage to our reputations if this goes south.
00:06:08Do you understand?
00:06:09Don't worry.
00:06:10I'll get you a bride.
00:06:12You said you'd make any wish I had come true?
00:06:15Yes.
00:06:16Anything.
00:06:17Then give me your hand.
00:06:27If you really want to thank me, then marry me.
00:06:31Marry you?
00:06:33No, I can't.
00:06:34My family's restaurant is in trouble, and my parents are hoping a marriage will bring in
00:06:38investors.
00:06:39But I refuse to treat my own future like a business deal.
00:06:43So, I'm asking you to pretend to be a wealthy bride and come home with me, just to help me
00:06:49get through the wedding.
00:06:51That's...
00:06:51Don't worry.
00:06:52I'm not asking you to do it for free.
00:06:53I'll give you $500 a day.
00:06:56You earn some steady cash.
00:06:57My family calms down.
00:06:59What do you say?
00:07:00Perfect.
00:07:01It'll give me more time to see who he really is.
00:07:06All right.
00:07:07You've got yourself a deal.
00:07:29Wow.
00:07:31You look incredible.
00:07:36So, want a kiss?
00:07:39Whoa, we're not even real husband and wife.
00:07:43You can't just start talking like that.
00:07:45Well, we could always make it real.
00:07:51I can't.
00:07:52I already have feelings for someone.
00:07:57It's her.
00:07:58The woman who won the World Culinary Championship at 18.
00:08:02Built home group into the greatest hospitality empire on Earth.
00:08:05And went on to dominate the competition year after year.
00:08:08The one and only culinary legend.
00:08:11She's the woman of my dreams.
00:08:13He's got a crush on me?
00:08:15He's got a crush on me?
00:08:15That's unexpectedly adorable.
00:08:19So don't get any ideas.
00:08:21Maintain a safe distance.
00:08:23Otherwise, I'll have to revoke your fake bride privileges.
00:08:28Relax.
00:08:29You're not my type.
00:08:30Just make sure you don't fall for me first.
00:08:33Impossible.
00:08:35Impossible.
00:08:35My heart already belongs to the culinary legend.
00:08:40Stay here.
00:08:41I'm going to grab a few gifts for you to bring home.
00:08:44It'll help you make a good first impression on my family.
00:08:48Put together a gift package worth $50 million.
00:08:51Have it delivered to Vance Restaurant under Home Group's name.
00:08:56Right away, boss.
00:09:01Remember, if my parents ask what your family does,
00:09:05tell them your parents own a restaurant company.
00:09:09Annual revenue, let's see.
00:09:12Daisy's family makes about $5 million a year.
00:09:15So tell them yours makes $10 million.
00:09:17And you're okay with lying to them?
00:09:20My family's desperate for investment.
00:09:22The only way they'll accept a last-minute replacement fiancé
00:09:25is if they think she's an upgrade on paper.
00:09:28But that doesn't actually solve the problem.
00:09:30Your restaurant is still in trouble.
00:09:34It'll work out.
00:09:36My idol always says,
00:09:38The only strength that matters is your own.
00:09:41I've spent years building my startup.
00:09:44One day I'll solve my family's problems myself,
00:09:47build a world-class restaurant
00:09:49and stand beside the culinary legend as her equal.
00:10:00Is Jasper back yet?
00:10:02Honestly, forcing him to marry that spoiled Daisy
00:10:05just to save the restaurant isn't fair to him.
00:10:08Mom, how can you say that?
00:10:10Daisy's family practically runs the restaurant industry in this state.
00:10:14Marrying her brings a million dollars into our business.
00:10:18That's something to celebrate.
00:10:19Exactly.
00:10:20Jasper's 29.
00:10:22It's time he settled down.
00:10:23And I'm not handing over the family's secret sauce recipe until he does.
00:10:27Daisy Syrah's daughter,
00:10:29the biggest name in the local restaurant business.
00:10:31It's a good match.
00:10:32He's hardly suffering.
00:10:34What's so special about that rich girl?
00:10:36Girl, I should have been the one marrying Jasper.
00:10:40Dad, Mom, Grandma, we're here!
00:10:48Wait.
00:10:49Why isn't Daisy with you?
00:10:51Who is that?
00:10:55Jasper!
00:10:56What is the meaning of this?
00:10:58Where's Daisy?
00:10:59Mom, Dad,
00:11:00I called off the engagement.
00:11:02I don't love Daisy.
00:11:04Sage is the woman I want to marry.
00:11:05And today,
00:11:07that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:11:09Have you lost your mind?
00:11:11Jasper, this is unbelievably irresponsible.
00:11:13Do you have any idea how badly we need Daisy's family's investment?
00:11:17If you alienate them,
00:11:18you could bankrupt this restaurant overnight.
00:11:20Enough.
00:11:22We've got a yard full of guests
00:11:24and a wedding ready to go.
00:11:25The least we can do is
00:11:27hear the boy out.
00:11:29Sage,
00:11:30go ahead and introduce yourself.
00:11:32Mr. Vance,
00:11:33Mrs. Vance,
00:11:34Grandmother,
00:11:34it's a pleasure to meet all of you.
00:11:36Where are you from?
00:11:37How many people are in your family?
00:11:39What do your parents do?
00:11:41And how much money do they make?
00:11:42We're from Houston.
00:11:43I'm an only child.
00:11:45My father owns a chain of restaurant hotels
00:11:47and my mother is a homemaker.
00:11:49Annual family income,
00:11:51$10 million.
00:11:52$10 million a year?
00:11:54Daisy's family runs the biggest restaurant business around here
00:11:57and they only make five.
00:11:58This fiance is the real deal.
00:11:59Well,
00:12:00isn't that wonderful?
00:12:01A restaurant family just like ours.
00:12:03I knew I liked you the moment I saw you.
00:12:06Called it.
00:12:13Sweetheart,
00:12:13where are your parents?
00:12:15It's your wedding day.
00:12:16Why aren't they here?
00:12:18My parents are overseas on business.
00:12:21They couldn't get away.
00:12:22Right.
00:12:22Sage's parents are pretty hands-off.
00:12:24She makes her own decisions.
00:12:25As long as she sends them an email,
00:12:26they're happy.
00:12:27That's true.
00:12:28Wealthy families are different about those things.
00:12:32Jasper,
00:12:33this was a reckless stunt.
00:12:34Next time,
00:12:35you talk to us first.
00:12:36Understood?
00:12:37Well then,
00:12:38let's not waste any more time.
00:12:39The ceremony's about to start.
00:12:40Come with me.
00:12:41I'll get you ready.
00:12:43Hold on!
00:12:45Elena!
00:12:46She's lying.
00:12:47Every word of it.
00:12:50Mia,
00:12:50why would you say something like that?
00:12:53Mia,
00:12:53I know you've always had feelings for Jasper,
00:12:56but Sage is clearly a better match for him.
00:12:59Don't start trouble where there isn't any.
00:13:02Aunt Elena,
00:13:03I'm serious.
00:13:04I saw her with my own eyes this morning
00:13:06coming out of some run-down hotel.
00:13:08She is not some wealthy hotel heiress.
00:13:19What kind of rich iress stays in a motel?
00:13:22Shouldn't she be living in one of her family's luxury hotels?
00:13:25Jasper,
00:13:26care to explain?
00:13:27If her family owns hotels,
00:13:29why were the two of you coming out of a dump like that?
00:13:33Jasper's been conned.
00:13:34She saw a handsome guy from a family that owns a successful restaurant
00:13:37and decided to scam her way into your lives.
00:13:40That's not true!
00:13:41Sage isn't a scammer!
00:13:43She was there because...
00:13:44because...
00:13:46Because...
00:13:46my family's hotels are exclusive resort on private islands.
00:13:50We don't operate properties on the mainland.
00:13:54Hotels on private islands?
00:13:56How luxurious is that?
00:13:58Nothing extravagant.
00:13:59Just over 500 properties worldwide.
00:14:01The brand is called Home.
00:14:03If you'd like,
00:14:03I can arrange membership cards for everyone.
00:14:06Home?
00:14:06That's the Culinary Legends Company.
00:14:09Are you trying to get me killed?
00:14:11I told you to pretend to be rich,
00:14:13not pretend to be the Culinary Legend.
00:14:15See?
00:14:16I told you!
00:14:17She's a fraud!
00:14:19Home was founded by the Culinary Legend herself,
00:14:21and this woman is actually claiming it belongs to her family!
00:14:25That's unbelievable.
00:14:26Who tells lies that ridiculous?
00:14:28What a fraud.
00:14:29Does she really think anyone can pretend to be the Culinary Legend?
00:14:32Jasper,
00:14:33have you been lying to your father and me?
00:14:35No, I'm not.
00:14:37Jasper,
00:14:38the truth.
00:14:38Right now,
00:14:39who exactly is this woman?
00:14:42Mom,
00:14:43Dad,
00:14:43her family really is in the hotel business,
00:14:45just not home.
00:14:47She was joking,
00:14:48that's all,
00:14:48just making a joke.
00:14:50Grandma,
00:14:50you've always wanted to see me get married,
00:14:52right?
00:14:52Let us do it today,
00:14:54right here,
00:14:54with you watching.
00:14:56Wait,
00:14:56we're not done here.
00:14:57Mia,
00:14:58what exactly are you trying to do?
00:14:59Are you deliberately trying to ruin this?
00:15:01Jasper,
00:15:01I'm not trying to cause trouble.
00:15:02I just don't want Aunt Elena and the rest of the family being lied to.
00:15:05Mia,
00:15:06what are you saying?
00:15:07Aunt Elena,
00:15:07doesn't this strike you as strange?
00:15:09For years,
00:15:09Jasper has been obsessed with the Culinary Legend.
00:15:11He's always said that if he couldn't marry her,
00:15:14anyone else would just be settling.
00:15:16So how does he suddenly meet the love of his life
00:15:18and call off an engagement over her?
00:15:20Jasper,
00:15:21you didn't hire someone to pretend to be your bride
00:15:24just to get out of this marriage,
00:15:26did you?
00:15:27No way,
00:15:28that's insane.
00:15:29That can't be true.
00:15:31Jasper would never lie to me.
00:15:33Jasper,
00:15:34answer me.
00:15:34Is this woman a fake bride you hired to deceive your grandmother?
00:15:38Dad,
00:15:39Grandma,
00:15:39don't listen to her.
00:15:40Stop making things up.
00:15:41Am I?
00:15:42Since the moment they got here,
00:15:43they've done everything they can to keep their distance.
00:15:46Other than holding hands,
00:15:47they haven't acted like a couple once.
00:15:49No chemistry,
00:15:50no affection.
00:15:51They don't look like two people about to get married
00:15:53because it's all fake.
00:15:56Oh,
00:15:57you want affection?
00:15:58Fine.
00:15:58We'll give you affection.
00:16:01Here,
00:16:02sweetheart.
00:16:03Have something sweet.
00:16:04Let me steal a taste.
00:16:26Why do her eyes feel so familiar?
00:16:28I told you,
00:16:29my grandson would never lie to me.
00:16:31Look at them.
00:16:32They're perfect together.
00:16:35You're the first man who's ever had the nerve to kiss me like that.
00:16:40Happy now?
00:16:41How does it feel watching the man you like kiss somebody else?
00:16:45Mr. Vance!
00:16:48Looks like quite the celebration you've got going on.
00:16:50That's Cyrus Potter.
00:16:52Daisy's father,
00:16:52the biggest name in the restaurant business in the state.
00:16:55And that kid with him,
00:16:56isn't that Senator Bruce's only son?
00:16:58Jasper just dumped his daughter.
00:17:00There's no way he's here for anything good.
00:17:07He's here for anything good.
00:17:10Relax.
00:17:12Why so tense?
00:17:13Mr. Potter,
00:17:14I owe you an apology.
00:17:16What Jasper did to your daughter was wrong.
00:17:18And I'm truly sorry.
00:17:20Forget the engagement.
00:17:22I heard your restaurant has a secret sauce.
00:17:24So good it can make anyone hungry.
00:17:27Senator Bruce asked me to bring young master Leo here to try it.
00:17:30If you can get him to eat,
00:17:32there'll be a very generous reward.
00:17:34If you can't,
00:17:35then maybe this restaurant doesn't deserve to stay in business.
00:17:38Mr. Potter,
00:17:39we do have the sauce,
00:17:40but I've injured my wrist recently.
00:17:41And young master Leo's condition is...
00:17:43So you're saying you can't meet a customer's needs?
00:17:46A restaurant that can't serve its guests has no business staying open.
00:17:51Perhaps I should recommend the senator shut this place down.
00:17:53No.
00:17:54Everybody knows Senator Bruce's son suffers from severe anorexia.
00:17:57World-class chefs have tried and failed to get him to eat.
00:17:59The only person who ever succeeded was the culinary legend,
00:18:02and the senator paid a hundred million dollars for that meal.
00:18:05You're not here for dinner.
00:18:07You're here to destroy us.
00:18:12That's right.
00:18:13You had the nerve to dump my daughter.
00:18:15Now you get to watch your whole family lose everything.
00:18:20Vance Restaurant is unable to serve its customers.
00:18:23That's grounds for closure.
00:18:25Tear it apart.
00:18:28Stop.
00:18:34What?
00:18:35Has Vance Restaurant fallen so low that it needs a woman to fight its battles?
00:18:39There she goes again.
00:18:41Always desperate for attention.
00:18:45What are you doing?
00:18:46This is my family's problem, not yours.
00:18:49Stay behind me.
00:18:51No one's ever tried to protect me before.
00:18:54You want payback for your daughter?
00:18:56Fine.
00:18:56This is all on me.
00:18:57Do whatever you want of me.
00:18:58Just leave my family out of it.
00:19:01Brave little fool.
00:19:04If you want to go down first, be my guest.
00:19:09Nobody lays a hand on my son.
00:19:12I will make something Master Leo enjoys.
00:19:14Until then, you don't touch a single member of my family,
00:19:17and you don't damage a single thing in my restaurant.
00:19:20They haven't even had a chance to cook yet.
00:19:22How can you shut them down already?
00:19:23He's not even trying to hide it.
00:19:25This is obviously a setup.
00:19:27Fine.
00:19:27But if you fail,
00:19:29don't blame me
00:19:30when I shut this place down on the spot.
00:19:41Let's see if you've got anything that can compete with the culinary legend.
00:20:03Please, give it a try.
00:20:15Oh my God, he ate it!
00:20:17Master Leo won't even touch food he doesn't like,
00:20:20but Chef Rowan actually got him to take a bite!
00:20:24Honey, you did it!
00:20:29Sage, what is it?
00:20:30The sauce is good,
00:20:32but the dish still isn't reaching its full potential.
00:20:35Are you saying my dish isn't good enough?
00:20:38Can you stop pretending you're some kind of expert?
00:20:41If there was something wrong with the dish,
00:20:43why would Master Leo eat it?
00:20:45Do you think we're all idiots?
00:20:58That's disgusting!
00:20:59Why would you serve me this?
00:21:02What?
00:21:03No way!
00:21:04She was right.
00:21:05She actually called it.
00:21:08Vance Restaurant has failed to satisfy its customer.
00:21:12Clearly unfit to operate.
00:21:14As the senator's representative,
00:21:16I'm shutting this place down immediately!
00:21:19Wait!
00:21:21Who says nobody in the Vance family
00:21:23can make something he'll eat?
00:21:26You're supposed to be some rich heiress.
00:21:29Since when do rich girls know how to cook?
00:21:32Stop making things worse.
00:21:33Ha!
00:21:34Rowan, have you really run out of options?
00:21:37You're actually hiding behind a woman now?
00:21:40Sage, stop.
00:21:42Be serious.
00:21:43You don't know how to cook.
00:21:44He doesn't need food.
00:21:46He needs a taste
00:21:47that reminds him what hunger feels like.
00:21:49A taste that wakes his appetite back up.
00:21:52And there's only one person in the world
00:21:54who knows how to do that.
00:21:56And it's me.
00:22:00Do you trust me?
00:22:02There's something about her.
00:22:03Something that makes you want to believe.
00:22:05Fine.
00:22:07One last chance.
00:22:08I want a dish on that table in ten minutes.
00:22:11And nobody helps her.
00:22:12Ten minutes?
00:22:13It takes five minutes just to prep the ingredients.
00:22:16Nobody can make a proper dish in ten.
00:22:18You've got one shot.
00:22:21Of course, you're welcome to give up now.
00:22:24You!
00:22:25Fine.
00:22:26But ten minutes is excessive.
00:22:28Give me three.
00:22:30Three minutes?
00:22:31Sage, this is no time for jokes!
00:22:33You can't even prep the ingredients in three minutes!
00:22:35If she wants to embarrass herself,
00:22:37who am I to stop her?
00:22:38Three minutes it is.
00:22:39Jasper, your fiancé has completely lost her mind!
00:22:43Are you sure about this?
00:22:45Three minutes isn't enough time.
00:22:47For someone else, maybe.
00:22:48Not for me.
00:23:05She carries chef's skills with her everywhere?
00:23:15Go ahead.
00:23:16Let's see what miracle you think you can pull off in three minutes.
00:23:22Go show them what you've got.
00:23:42How far along is she?
00:23:44Why is it so quiet?
00:23:45Maybe she realized she's in over her head and is back there crying.
00:24:01Thirty seconds.
00:24:03That's all you've got left.
00:24:04Jasper, I told you she couldn't do it!
00:24:06Mia, are you actually rooting for my family's restaurant to fail?
00:24:10That's not what I meant.
00:24:19What is that smell?
00:24:21I've never smelled anything like it before.
00:24:24Oh my God.
00:24:26I'm actually drooling.
00:24:28She cooked with oil, yet there's not a trace of smoke.
00:24:30Just the pure aroma of vegetables and meat.
00:24:33This is the pinnacle of the craft.
00:24:35The level only the culinary legend is supposed to reach.
00:24:38Jasper,
00:24:39who exactly did you bring home?
00:24:42Ten seconds!
00:24:44If she doesn't put a dish on that table,
00:24:46I'm shutting this place down!
00:24:56Please, enjoy.
00:25:04That's...
00:25:05That's impossible!
00:25:18The game now begins!
00:25:58Congratulations to Sage Bennett on her historic fifth consecutive World Culinary Championship.
00:26:05The only chef ever to claim the title five years in a row!
00:26:17And today, the home group, the restaurant and hospitality empire Sage Bennett founded,
00:26:23has officially been ranked number one in the world.
00:26:27She's not just a culinary legend now, she's the queen of hospitality.
00:26:32Boss, the tethered clothes you asked for are ready.
00:26:40For years, I've given to others anonymously.
00:26:43But today, I'm looking for someone with genuine character.
00:26:47Someone worthy of becoming a partner in my top restaurant.
00:26:50The first person to offer me food gets a $10 million investment.
00:26:55Please, could someone spare a little food?
00:26:58Wait!
00:26:59Don't go over there!
00:27:00What's wrong, babe?
00:27:01That bum over there went to high school with me.
00:27:04If she spots me, she'll probably start begging me for money.
00:27:08Let's take a side street.
00:27:10Wait, you mean Sage?
00:27:12That's really her?
00:27:13You know her?
00:27:14She's my ex.
00:27:15We broke up when she left town for work.
00:27:17Wow, I never thought she'd end up on the street.
00:27:20I've got to record this.
00:27:22Come on, if people find out a successful restaurant owner like me went to school with her, it'll screw up
00:27:28my image!
00:27:29Molly, that franchise you're so proud of only exists because I gave it to you.
00:27:35Please, could someone...
00:27:36Is there really no one out here worth believing in?
00:27:58Are you alright?
00:28:04Jasper, why are you standing around?
00:28:07With some filthy hobo?
00:28:10You gave my bread to her?
00:28:12Your bread?
00:28:13I bought it, and you said you didn't want it.
00:28:17Even if I don't want it, it shouldn't be wasted on a sewer rat like her.
00:28:24She belongs on the ground picking up scraps.
00:28:27Daisy, that's enough!
00:28:28I'm your fiancé, and you're taking some random bum side over me?
00:28:33If you still want to marry me, then make her get lost.
00:28:36Right now.
00:28:38Well, I guess the wedding's off.
00:28:40What did you just say?
00:28:41You're calling off our engagement over some homeless freak?
00:28:45Do you have any idea what my father could do to her?
00:28:47Leave her out of this, Daisy.
00:28:49I made this decision a long time ago.
00:28:51Our engagement was nothing more than a family arrangement.
00:28:54You were never the woman I wanted to marry.
00:28:56My wife won't be someone who looks down on those with less than her.
00:28:59Someone who treats cruelty like a virtue.
00:29:02You bastard! How dare you!
00:29:05Your family's restaurant is already drowning financially.
00:29:08Without my father's investment, it'll be out of business in no time!
00:29:11Your father only angled for this marriage because he's after my family's recipes.
00:29:15And let me make this clear.
00:29:16Even if we're struggling, our restaurant isn't something he can just take away.
00:29:23You're gonna regret this!
00:29:28Dad! Jasper just called off our engagement!
00:29:30Buy out his family's restaurant now!
00:29:32I want you to strip him of everything!
00:29:43I'm sorry you got dragged into all this.
00:29:45Please, take the money.
00:29:46At least let me buy you a decent meal.
00:29:48No, I don't want all that money.
00:29:51Just a burger.
00:29:52Lady! That money could buy ten burgers!
00:29:55I only want one burger.
00:29:57Fresh off the grill.
00:29:58Still hot.
00:30:04Here you go.
00:30:05Hope it's what you wanted.
00:30:14Easy there.
00:30:15Take your time.
00:30:16And please, keep the money.
00:30:18It'll buy you plenty more burgers.
00:30:21You're a good man.
00:30:23It's nothing.
00:30:24His kindness, it's genuine.
00:30:28Then let me thank you properly.
00:30:31An exclusive ten billion dollar investment contract from Home Group?
00:30:35Covering the entire state?
00:30:38Nice try, but I'm not falling for this.
00:30:40You should take it back.
00:30:42Why would I be joking?
00:30:43My cousin works at Home Group.
00:30:45A contract like this can only be signed by the founder herself, the culinary legend.
00:30:49What, don't tell me you're actually her?
00:30:51Well, you know what?
00:30:53Never mind.
00:30:54If you don't believe me, then tell me what else you want.
00:30:56Whatever it is, I'll make it happen.
00:30:58Something else?
00:30:59No, that's really not.
00:31:04Jasper, everything's ready here.
00:31:05When are you and Daisy getting back?
00:31:07Mom, Daisy and I, we've run into a bit of a situation.
00:31:10A situation?
00:31:11Did you two have a fight?
00:31:12Jasper, go make things right.
00:31:14Our restaurant is depending on the funding from this marriage.
00:31:16We cannot lose the bride.
00:31:18And we certainly can't survive the damage to our reputations if this goes south.
00:31:21Do you understand?
00:31:22Don't worry.
00:31:23I'll get you a bride.
00:31:25You said you'd make any wish I had come true?
00:31:28Yes.
00:31:29Anything.
00:31:30Then give me your hand.
00:31:40If you really want to thank me, then marry me.
00:31:44Marry you?
00:31:46No, I can't.
00:31:47My family's restaurant is in trouble, and my parents are hoping a marriage will bring in investors.
00:31:52But I refuse to treat my own future like a business deal.
00:31:55So, I'm asking you to pretend to be a wealthy bride.
00:31:59And come home with me.
00:32:01Just to help me get through the wedding.
00:32:04That's...
00:32:04Don't worry.
00:32:05I'm not asking you to do it for free.
00:32:06I'll give you $500 a day.
00:32:08You earn some steady cash.
00:32:10My family calms down.
00:32:11What do you say?
00:32:13Perfect.
00:32:14It'll give me more time to see who he really is.
00:32:19Alright, you've got yourself a deal.
00:32:42Wow.
00:32:43You look incredible.
00:32:49So...
00:32:50Want a kiss?
00:32:52Whoa, we're not even real husband and wife.
00:32:56You can't just start talking like that.
00:32:58Well, we could always make it real.
00:33:04I can't.
00:33:05I already have feelings for someone.
00:33:10It's her.
00:33:11The woman who won the World Culinary Championship at 18.
00:33:15Built home group into the greatest hospitality empire on Earth.
00:33:18And went on to dominate the competition year after year.
00:33:21The one and only culinary legend.
00:33:24She's the woman of my dreams.
00:33:26He's got a crush on me?
00:33:29That's...
00:33:29Unexpectedly adorable.
00:33:32So don't get any ideas.
00:33:34Maintain a safe distance.
00:33:36Otherwise, I'll have to revoke your fake bride privileges.
00:33:41Relax.
00:33:42You're not my type.
00:33:43Just make sure you don't fall for me first.
00:33:46Impossible.
00:33:47My heart already belongs to the culinary legend.
00:33:53Stay here.
00:33:54I'm going to grab a few gifts for you to bring home.
00:33:57It'll help you make a good first impression on my family.
00:34:01Put together a gift package worth $50 million.
00:34:04Have it delivered to Vance Restaurant under Home Group's name.
00:34:09Right away, boss.
00:34:14Remember, if my parents ask what your family does,
00:34:18tell them your parents own a restaurant company.
00:34:22Annual revenue, let's see.
00:34:25Daisy's family makes about $5 million a year.
00:34:28So tell them yours makes $10 million.
00:34:30And you're okay with lying to them?
00:34:33My family's desperate for investment.
00:34:35The only way they'll accept a last-minute replacement fiancé
00:34:38is if they think she's an upgrade on paper.
00:34:41But that doesn't actually solve the problem.
00:34:43Your restaurant is still in trouble.
00:34:47It'll work out.
00:34:49My idol always says,
00:34:51The only strength that matters is your own.
00:34:54I've spent years building my startup.
00:34:57One day I'll solve my family's problems myself,
00:35:00build a world-class restaurant,
00:35:02and stand beside the culinary legend as her equal.
00:35:13Is Jasper back yet?
00:35:15Honestly, forcing him to marry that spoiled Daisy
00:35:18just to save the restaurant isn't fair to him.
00:35:21Mom, how can you say that?
00:35:23Daisy's family practically runs the restaurant industry in this state.
00:35:27Marrying her brings a million dollars into our business.
00:35:31That's something to celebrate.
00:35:32Exactly. Jasper's 29.
00:35:35It's time he settled down.
00:35:36And I'm not handing over the family's secret sauce recipe until he does.
00:35:40Daisy Syrah's daughter,
00:35:42the biggest name in the local restaurant business.
00:35:44It's a good match.
00:35:45He's hardly suffering.
00:35:47What's so special about that rich girl?
00:35:49I should have been the one marrying Jasper.
00:35:53Dad, Mom, Grandma, we're here!
00:36:01Wait.
00:36:02Why isn't Daisy with you?
00:36:04Who is that?
00:36:08Jasper, what is the meaning of this?
00:36:11Where's Daisy?
00:36:12Mom, Dad, I called off the engagement.
00:36:15I don't love Daisy.
00:36:17Sage is the woman I want to marry.
00:36:18And today, that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:36:22Have you lost your mind?
00:36:24Jasper, this is unbelievably irresponsible.
00:36:26Do you have any idea how badly we need Daisy's family's investment?
00:36:30If you alienate them, you could bankrupt this restaurant overnight.
00:36:33Enough.
00:36:35We've got a yard full of guests and a wedding ready to go.
00:36:38The least we can do is hear the boy out.
00:36:42Sage, go ahead and introduce yourself.
00:36:44Mr. Vance, Mrs. Vance, Grandmother, it's a pleasure to meet all of you.
00:36:49Where are you from?
00:36:50How many people are in your family?
00:36:52What do your parents do?
00:36:53And how much money do they make?
00:36:55We're from Houston.
00:36:56I'm an only child.
00:36:58My father owns a chain of restaurant hotels.
00:37:00And my mother is a homemaker.
00:37:02Annual family income?
00:37:04$10 million.
00:37:05$10 million a year?
00:37:07Daisy's family runs the biggest restaurant business around here and they only make five.
00:37:11This fiancé is the real deal.
00:37:12Well, isn't that wonderful?
00:37:14A restaurant family just like ours.
00:37:16I knew I liked you the moment I saw you.
00:37:19Called it.
00:37:26Sweetheart, where are your parents?
00:37:28It's your wedding day.
00:37:29Why aren't they here?
00:37:31My parents are overseas on business.
00:37:33They couldn't get away.
00:37:35Right.
00:37:35Sage's parents are pretty hands-off.
00:37:37She makes her own decisions.
00:37:38As long as she sends them an email, they're happy.
00:37:40That's true.
00:37:41Wealthy families are different about those things.
00:37:45Jasper, this was a reckless stunt.
00:37:47Next time, you talk to us first.
00:37:49Understood?
00:37:50Well then, let's not waste any more time.
00:37:52The ceremony's about to start.
00:37:53Come with me.
00:37:54I'll get you ready.
00:37:56Hold on!
00:37:58Elena!
00:37:59She's lying.
00:38:00Every word of it.
00:38:03Mia, why would you say something like that?
00:38:05Mia, I know you've always had feelings for Jasper.
00:38:09But Sage is clearly a better match for him.
00:38:12Don't start trouble where there isn't any.
00:38:15Aunt Elena, I'm serious.
00:38:17I saw her with my own eyes this morning coming out of some run-down hotel.
00:38:21She is not some wealthy hotel heiress.
00:38:32What kind of rich iress stays in a motel?
00:38:35Shouldn't she be living in one of her family's luxury hotels?
00:38:38Jasper, care to explain?
00:38:40If her family owns hotels, I were the two of you coming out of a dump like that.
00:38:46Jasper's been conned.
00:38:47She saw a handsome guy from a family that owns a successful restaurant and decided to scam her way into
00:38:52your lives.
00:38:53That's not true!
00:38:54Sage isn't a scammer!
00:38:56She was there because...
00:38:57Because...
00:38:58Because...
00:38:59Because my family's hotels are exclusive resorts on private islands.
00:39:03We don't operate properties on the mainland.
00:39:07Hotels on private islands?
00:39:08How luxurious is that?
00:39:11Nothing extravagant.
00:39:12Just over 500 properties worldwide.
00:39:14The brand is called Home.
00:39:15If you'd like, I can arrange membership cards for everyone.
00:39:18Home?
00:39:19That's the Culinary Legends Company.
00:39:22Are you trying to get me killed?
00:39:24I told you to pretend to be rich, not pretend to be the Culinary Legend.
00:39:28See?
00:39:29I told you!
00:39:30She's a fraud!
00:39:31Home was founded by the Culinary Legend herself,
00:39:34and this woman is actually claiming it belongs to her family!
00:39:38That's unbelievable.
00:39:39Who tells lies that ridiculous?
00:39:41What a fraud.
00:39:42Does she really think anyone can pretend to be the Culinary Legend?
00:39:45Jasper, have you been lying to your father and me?
00:39:48No, I'm not.
00:39:49Jasper, the truth.
00:39:51Right now, who exactly is this woman?
00:39:55Mom, Dad.
00:39:56Her family really is in the hotel business, just not home.
00:40:00She was joking, that's all.
00:40:01Just making a joke.
00:40:02Grandma, you've always wanted to see me get married, right?
00:40:05Let us do it today.
00:40:06Right here, with you watching.
00:40:08Wait!
00:40:09We're not done here.
00:40:10Mia, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:40:12Are you deliberately trying to ruin this?
00:40:14Jasper, I'm not trying to cause trouble.
00:40:15I just don't want Aunt Elena and the rest of the family being lied to.
00:40:18Mia, what are you saying?
00:40:20Aunt Elena, doesn't this strike you as strange?
00:40:22For years, Jasper has been obsessed with the Culinary Legend.
00:40:24He's always said that if he couldn't marry her, anyone else would just be settling.
00:40:29So how does he suddenly meet the love of his life and call off an engagement over her?
00:40:34Jasper, you didn't hire someone to pretend to be your bride just to get out of this marriage,
00:40:39did you?
00:40:40No way, that's insane.
00:40:42That can't be true.
00:40:44Jasper would never lie to me.
00:40:46Jasper, answer me.
00:40:47Is this woman a fake bride you hired to deceive your grandmother?
00:40:51Dad, Grandma, don't listen to her.
00:40:53Stop making things up.
00:40:54Am I?
00:40:54Since the moment they got here, they've done everything they can to keep their distance.
00:40:59Other than holding hands, they haven't acted like a couple once.
00:41:02No chemistry.
00:41:03No affection.
00:41:04They don't look like two people about to get married.
00:41:06Because it's all fake!
00:41:09Oh, you want affection?
00:41:11Fine.
00:41:11We'll give you affection.
00:41:14Here, sweetheart.
00:41:16Have something sweet.
00:41:17Let me steal a taste.
00:41:39Why do her eyes feel so familiar?
00:41:41I told you, my grandson would never lie to me.
00:41:44Look at them.
00:41:45They're perfect together.
00:41:48You're the first man who's ever had the nerve to kiss me like that.
00:41:53Happy now?
00:41:54How does it feel watching the man you like kiss somebody else?
00:41:58Mr. Vance!
00:42:00Looks like quite the celebration you've got going on.
00:42:03That's Cyrus Potter.
00:42:04Daisy's father, the biggest name in the restaurant business in the state.
00:42:08And that kid with him, isn't that Senator Bruce's only son?
00:42:11Jasper just dumped his daughter.
00:42:13There's no way he's here for anything good.
00:42:23Relax.
00:42:25Why so tense?
00:42:26Mr. Potter, I owe you an apology.
00:42:29What Jasper did to your daughter was wrong.
00:42:31And I'm truly sorry.
00:42:33Forget the engagement.
00:42:35I heard your restaurant has a secret sauce.
00:42:37So good it can make anyone hungry.
00:42:40Senator Bruce asked me to bring young Master Leo here to try it.
00:42:43If you can get him to eat, there'll be a very generous reward.
00:42:47If you can't, then maybe this restaurant doesn't deserve to stay in business.
00:42:51Mr. Potter, we do have the sauce.
00:42:53But I've injured my wrist recently.
00:42:54And young Master Leo's condition is...
00:42:56So you're saying you can't meet a customer's needs?
00:42:59A restaurant that can't serve its guests has no business staying open.
00:43:04Perhaps I should recommend the Senator shut this place down.
00:43:06No!
00:43:06Everybody knows Senator Bruce's son suffers from severe anorexia.
00:43:10World-class chefs have tried and failed to get him to eat.
00:43:12The only person who ever succeeded was the culinary legend.
00:43:15And the Senator paid a hundred million dollars for that meal.
00:43:19You're not here for dinner.
00:43:20You're here to destroy us.
00:43:25That's right.
00:43:26You had the nerve to dump my daughter.
00:43:28Now you get to watch your whole family lose everything.
00:43:33Vance Restaurant is unable to serve its customers.
00:43:36That's grounds for closure.
00:43:38Tear it apart.
00:43:41Vance Restaurant is unable to serve its customers.
00:43:47What?
00:43:48Has Vance Restaurant fallen so low that it needs a woman to fight its battles?
00:43:52There she goes again.
00:43:54Always desperate for attention.
00:43:57What are you doing?
00:43:59This is my family's problem, not yours.
00:44:02Stay behind me.
00:44:03No one's ever tried to protect me before.
00:44:07You want payback for your daughter?
00:44:08Fine.
00:44:09This is all on me.
00:44:10Do whatever you want of me.
00:44:11Just leave my family out of it.
00:44:14Brave little fool.
00:44:17If you want to go down first, be my guest.
00:44:22Nobody lays a hand on my son.
00:44:25I will make something Master Leo enjoys.
00:44:27Until then, you don't touch a single member of my family and you don't damage a single thing in my
00:44:32restaurant.
00:44:33They haven't even had a chance to cook yet.
00:44:35How can you shut them down already?
00:44:36He's not even trying to hide it.
00:44:38This is obviously a setup.
00:44:40Fine.
00:44:40But if you fail, don't blame me when I shut this place down on the spot.
00:44:54Let's see if you've got anything that can compete with the culinary legend.
00:45:16Please, give it a try.
00:45:28Oh my God, he ate it.
00:45:30Master Leo won't even touch food he doesn't like.
00:45:33But Chef Rowan actually got him to take a bite.
00:45:37Honey, you did it.
00:45:42Sage, what is it?
00:45:43The sauce is good, but the dish still isn't reaching its full potential.
00:45:48Are you saying my dish isn't good enough?
00:45:51Can you stop pretending you're some kind of expert?
00:45:54If there was something wrong with the dish, why would Master Leo eat it?
00:45:58Do you think we're all idiots?
00:46:11That's disgusting!
00:46:12Why would you serve me this?
00:46:15What?
00:46:16No way!
00:46:17She was right.
00:46:18She actually called it.
00:46:21Vance Restaurant has failed to satisfy its customer.
00:46:25Clearly unfit to operate.
00:46:27As the senator's representative.
00:46:29I'm shutting this place down immediately!
00:46:32Wait.
00:46:34Who says nobody in the Vance family can make something he'll eat?
00:46:39You're supposed to be some rich heiress.
00:46:42Since when do rich girls know how to cook?
00:46:45Stop making things worse.
00:46:46Ha!
00:46:47Rowan, have you really run out of options?
00:46:50You're actually hiding behind a woman now?
00:46:53Sage, stop.
00:46:55Be serious.
00:46:56You don't know how to cook.
00:46:57He doesn't need food.
00:46:59He needs a taste that reminds him what hunger feels like.
00:47:02A taste that wakes his appetite back up.
00:47:05And there's only one person in the world who knows how to do that.
00:47:09And it's me.
00:47:13Do you trust me?
00:47:15There's something about her.
00:47:16Something that makes you want to believe.
00:47:18Fine.
00:47:19One last chance.
00:47:21I want a dish on that table in ten minutes.
00:47:24And nobody helps her.
00:47:25Ten minutes?
00:47:26It takes five minutes just to prep the ingredients.
00:47:29Nobody can make a proper dish in ten.
00:47:31You've got one shot.
00:47:33Of course, you're welcome to give up now.
00:47:37You!
00:47:38Fine.
00:47:39But ten minutes is excessive.
00:47:41Give me three.
00:47:42Three minutes?
00:47:44Sage, this is no time for jokes.
00:47:46You can't even prep the ingredients in three minutes.
00:47:48If she wants to embarrass herself, who am I to stop her?
00:47:51Three minutes it is.
00:47:52Jasper, your fiancé has completely lost her mind.
00:47:56Are you sure about this?
00:47:58Three minutes isn't enough time.
00:47:59For someone else, maybe.
00:48:01Not for me.
00:48:18She carries chef's skills with her everywhere?
00:48:28Go ahead.
00:48:29Let's see what miracle you think you can pull off in three minutes.
00:48:35Go show them what you've got.
00:48:55How far along is she?
00:48:57Why is it so quiet?
00:48:58Maybe she realized she's in over her head and is back there crying.
00:49:14Thirty seconds.
00:49:16That's all you've got left.
00:49:17Jasper, I told you she couldn't do it!
00:49:19Mia, are you actually rooting for my family's restaurant to fail?
00:49:23That's not what I meant.
00:49:32What is that smell?
00:49:34I've never smelled anything like it before.
00:49:37Oh my god.
00:49:39I'm actually drooling.
00:49:41She cooked with oil, yet there's not a trace of smoke.
00:49:43Just the pure aroma of vegetables and meat.
00:49:45This is the pinnacle of the craft.
00:49:47The level only the culinary legend is supposed to reach.
00:49:50Jasper, who exactly did you bring home?
00:49:55Ten seconds!
00:49:57If she doesn't put a dish on that table, I'm shutting this place down!
00:50:08Please, enjoy.
00:50:17That's...
00:50:18That's impossible!
00:50:31The game now begins!
00:50:59Let's go!
00:51:11Congratulations to Sage Bennett on her historic 5th consecutive World Culinary Championship.
00:51:17The only chef ever to claim the title five years in a row.
00:51:30And today, the home group the restaurant and hospitality empire Sage Bennett founded
00:51:36has officially been ranked number one in the world.
00:51:40She's not just a culinary legend now, she's the queen of hospitality.
00:51:46Boss, the tethered clothes you asked for are ready.
00:51:53For years, I've given to others anonymously.
00:51:56But today, I'm looking for someone with genuine character.
00:52:00Someone worthy of becoming a partner in my top restaurant.
00:52:03The first person to offer me food gets a $10 million investment.
00:52:07Please, could someone spare a little food?
00:52:11Wait! Don't go over there!
00:52:13What's wrong, babe?
00:52:14That bum over there went to high school with me.
00:52:17If she spots me, she'll probably start begging me for money.
00:52:21Let's take a side street.
00:52:23Wait, you mean Sage?
00:52:25That's really her?
00:52:26You know her?
00:52:27She's my ex.
00:52:28We broke up when she left town for work.
00:52:30Wow.
00:52:31I never thought she'd end up on the street.
00:52:33I've got to record this.
00:52:34Come on, if people find out a successful restaurant owner like me went to school with her, it'll screw up
00:52:40my image.
00:52:42Molly, that franchise you're so proud of only exists because I gave it to you.
00:52:47Please, could someone...
00:52:49Is there really no one out here worth believing in?
00:53:11Are you all right?
00:53:17Jasper, why are you standing around?
00:53:20With some filthy hobo?
00:53:23You gave my bread to her?
00:53:25Your bread?
00:53:26I bought it, and you said you didn't want it.
00:53:30Even if I don't want it, it shouldn't be wasted on a sewer rat like her.
00:53:37She belongs on the ground picking up scraps.
00:53:40Daisy, that's enough!
00:53:41I'm your fiancé, and you're taking some random bum side over me?
00:53:46If you still want to marry me, then make her get lost.
00:53:49Right now.
00:53:51Well, I guess the wedding's off.
00:53:53What did you just say?
00:53:54You're calling off our engagement over some homeless freak?
00:53:57Do you have any idea what my father could do to her?
00:54:00Leave her out of this, Daisy.
00:54:02I made this decision a long time ago.
00:54:04Our engagement was nothing more than a family arrangement.
00:54:07You were never the woman I wanted to marry.
00:54:09My wife won't be someone who looks down on those with less than her.
00:54:12Someone who treats cruelty like a virtue.
00:54:15You bastard!
00:54:17How dare you!
00:54:18Your family's restaurant is already drowning financially.
00:54:21Without my father's investment, it'll be out of business in no time!
00:54:24Your father only angled for this marriage because he's after my family's recipes.
00:54:28And let me make this clear.
00:54:29Even if we're struggling, our restaurant isn't something he could just take away.
00:54:36You're gonna regret this!
00:54:40Dad, Jasper just called off our engagement!
00:54:43Buy out his family's restaurant now!
00:54:44I want you to strip him of everything!
00:54:55I'm sorry you got dragged into all this.
00:54:57Please, take the money.
00:54:59At least let me buy you a decent meal.
00:55:01No, I don't want all that money.
00:55:04Just a burger.
00:55:05Lady, that money could buy ten burgers!
00:55:08I only want one burger.
00:55:10Fresh off the grill.
00:55:11Still hot.
00:55:17Here you go.
00:55:18Hope it's what you wanted.
00:55:27Easy there.
00:55:28Take your time.
00:55:29And please, keep the money.
00:55:31It'll buy you plenty more burgers.
00:55:34You're a good man.
00:55:36It's nothing.
00:55:37His kindness, it's genuine.
00:55:41Then let me thank you properly.
00:55:44An exclusive ten billion dollar investment contract from Home Group?
00:55:48Covering the entire state?
00:55:51Nice try, but I'm not falling for this.
00:55:53You should take it back.
00:55:55Why would I be joking?
00:55:56My cousin works at Home Group.
00:55:58A contract like this can only be signed by the founder herself, the culinary legend.
00:56:02What, don't tell me you're actually her?
00:56:04Well, you know what, never mind.
00:56:07If you don't believe me, then tell me what else you want.
00:56:09Whatever it is, I'll make it happen.
00:56:11Something else?
00:56:12No, that's really not.
00:56:17Jasper, everything's ready here.
00:56:18When are you and Daisy getting back?
00:56:20Mom, Daisy and I, we've run into a bit of a situation.
00:56:23A situation?
00:56:24Did you two have a fight?
00:56:25Jasper, go make things right.
00:56:27Our restaurant is depending on the funding from this marriage.
00:56:29We cannot lose the bride.
00:56:31And we certainly can't survive the damage to our reputations if this goes south.
00:56:34Do you understand?
00:56:35Don't worry, I'll get you a bride.
00:56:38You said you'd make any wish I had come true?
00:56:41Yes, anything.
00:56:43Then give me your hand.
00:56:53If you really want to thank me, then marry me.
00:56:57Marry you?
00:56:59No, I can't.
00:57:00My family's restaurant is in trouble,
00:57:02and my parents are hoping a marriage will bring in investors.
00:57:05But I refuse to treat my own future like a business deal.
00:57:09So, I'm asking you to pretend to be a wealthy bride,
00:57:12and come home with me.
00:57:14Just to help me get through the wedding.
00:57:17That's...
00:57:17Don't worry, I'm not asking you to do it for free.
00:57:19I'll give you $500 a day.
00:57:21You earn some steady cash,
00:57:23my family calms down.
00:57:24What do you say?
00:57:26Perfect.
00:57:27It'll give me more time to see who he really is.
00:57:32Alright, you've got yourself a deal.
00:57:55Wow, you look incredible.
00:58:01So...
00:58:03Want a kiss?
00:58:05Whoa, we're not even real husband and wife.
00:58:09You can't just start talking like that.
00:58:11Well, we could always make it real.
00:58:17I can't.
00:58:18I already have feelings for someone.
00:58:23It's her.
00:58:24The woman who won the World Culinary Championship at 18.
00:58:28Built home group into the greatest hospitality empire on Earth.
00:58:31And went on to dominate the competition year after year.
00:58:34The one and only culinary legend.
00:58:37She's the woman of my dreams.
00:58:39He's got a crush on me?
00:58:42That's...
00:58:42Unexpectedly adorable.
00:58:45So don't get any ideas.
00:58:47Maintain a safe distance.
00:58:49Otherwise, I'll have to revoke your fake bride privileges.
00:58:54Relax.
00:58:55You're not my type.
00:58:56Just make sure you don't fall for me first.
00:58:59Impossible.
00:59:00My heart already belongs to the culinary legend.
00:59:06Stay here.
00:59:06I'm going to grab a few gifts for you to bring home.
00:59:09It'll help you make a good first impression on my family.
00:59:14Put together a gift package worth $50 million.
00:59:17Have it delivered to Vance Restaurant under Home Group's name.
00:59:22Right away, boss.
00:59:27Remember, if my parents ask what your family does,
00:59:31tell them your parents own a restaurant company.
00:59:35Annual revenue, let's see.
00:59:38Daisy's family makes about $5 million a year.
00:59:41So tell them yours makes $10 million.
00:59:43And you're okay with lying to them?
00:59:46My family's desperate for investment.
00:59:48The only way they'll accept a last-minute replacement fiancé
00:59:51is if they think she's an upgrade on paper.
00:59:54But that doesn't actually solve the problem.
00:59:56Your restaurant is still in trouble.
01:00:00It'll work out.
01:00:02My idol always says,
01:00:04the only strength that matters is your own.
01:00:07I've spent years building my startup.
01:00:10One day I'll solve my family's problems myself,
01:00:13build a world-class restaurant,
01:00:15and stand beside the culinary legend as her equal.
01:00:25Is Jasper back yet?
01:00:28Honestly, forcing him to marry that spoiled Daisy
01:00:31just to save the restaurant isn't fair to him.
01:00:34Mom, how can you say that?
01:00:36Daisy's family practically runs the restaurant industry in this state.
01:00:40Marrying her brings a million dollars into our business.
01:00:44That's something to celebrate.
01:00:45Exactly. Jasper's 29.
01:00:47It's time he settled down.
01:00:49And I'm not handing over the family's secret sauce recipe until he does.
01:00:53Daisy Syrah's daughter,
01:00:54the biggest name in the local restaurant business.
01:00:57It's a good match.
01:00:58He's hardly suffering.
01:01:00What's so special about that rich girl?
01:01:02I should have been the one marrying Jasper.
01:01:06Dad, Mom, Grandma, we're here!
01:01:14Wait.
01:01:15Why isn't Daisy with you?
01:01:17Who is that?
01:01:21Jasper, what is the meaning of this?
01:01:24Where's Daisy?
01:01:25Mom, Dad, I called off the engagement.
01:01:28I don't love Daisy.
01:01:30Sage is the woman I want to marry.
01:01:31And today, that's exactly what I'm going to do.
01:01:35Have you lost your mind?
01:01:37Jasper, this is unbelievably irresponsible.
01:01:39Do you have any idea how badly we need Daisy's family's investment?
01:01:43If you alienate them, you could bankrupt this restaurant overnight.
01:01:46Enough.
01:01:48We've got a yard full of guests and a wedding ready to go.
01:01:51The least we can do is hear the boy out.
01:01:55Sage, go ahead and introduce yourself.
01:01:57Mr. Vance, Mrs. Vance, Grandmother, it's a pleasure to meet all of you.
01:02:02Where are you from?
01:02:03How many people are in your family?
01:02:05What do your parents do?
01:02:06And how much money do they make?
01:02:08We're from Houston.
01:02:09I'm an only child.
01:02:11My father owns a chain of restaurant hotels, and my mother is a homemaker.
01:02:15Annual family income, $10 million.
01:02:18$10 million a year?
01:02:20Daisy's family runs the biggest restaurant business around here, and they only make five.
01:02:24This fiancé is the real deal.
01:02:25Well, isn't that wonderful?
01:02:27A restaurant family just like ours.
01:02:29I knew I liked you the moment I saw you.
01:02:32Called it.
01:02:38Sweetheart, where are your parents?
01:02:41It's your wedding day.
01:02:42Why aren't they here?
01:02:44My parents are overseas on business.
01:02:46They couldn't get away.
01:02:48Right.
01:02:48Sage's parents are pretty hands-off.
01:02:50She makes her own decisions.
01:02:51As long as she sends them an email, they're happy.
01:02:53That's true.
01:02:54Wealthy families are different about those things.
01:02:58Jasper, this was a reckless stunt.
01:03:00Next time, you talk to us first.
01:03:02Understood?
01:03:03Well then, let's not waste any more time.
01:03:05The ceremony's about to start.
01:03:06Come with me.
01:03:07I'll get you ready.
01:03:09Hold on!
01:03:11Elena!
01:03:11She's lying.
01:03:13Every word of it.
01:03:16Mia, why would you say something like that?
01:03:18Mia, I know you've always had feelings for Jasper.
01:03:22But Sage is clearly a better match for him.
01:03:25Don't start trouble where there isn't any.
01:03:28Aunt Elena, I'm serious.
01:03:29I saw her with my own eyes this morning coming out of some run-down hotel.
01:03:34She is not some wealthy hotel heiress.
01:03:45What kind of rich iris stays in a motel?
01:03:48Shouldn't she be living in one of her family's luxury hotels?
01:03:51Jasper, care to explain?
01:03:52If her family owns hotels, why were the two of you coming out of a dump like that?
01:03:59Jasper's been conned.
01:04:00She saw a handsome guy from a family that owns a successful restaurant and decided to scam her way into
01:04:05your lives.
01:04:06That's not true!
01:04:07Sage isn't a scammer.
01:04:09She was there because...
01:04:10Because...
01:04:11Because my family's hotels are exclusive resort on private islands.
01:04:16We don't operate properties on the mainland.
01:04:19Hotels on private islands?
01:04:21How luxurious is that?
01:04:24Nothing extravagant.
01:04:25Just over 500 properties worldwide.
01:04:27The brand is called Home.
01:04:29If you'd like, I can arrange membership cards for everyone.
01:04:31Home?
01:04:32That's the Culinary Legends Company.
01:04:35Are you trying to get me killed?
01:04:37I told you to pretend to be rich, not pretend to be the Culinary Legend.
01:04:41See?
01:04:42I told you!
01:04:43She's a fraud!
01:04:44Home was founded by the Culinary Legend herself,
01:04:47and this woman is actually claiming it belongs to her family!
01:04:51That's unbelievable.
01:04:52Who tells lies that ridiculous?
01:04:54What a fraud.
01:04:55Does she really think anyone can pretend to be the Culinary Legend?
01:04:58Jasper, have you been lying to your father and me?
01:05:01No, I'm not Jasper.
01:05:03The truth.
01:05:04Right now, who exactly is this woman?
01:05:08Mom, Dad, her family really is in the hotel business, just not home.
01:05:13She was joking, that's all, just making a joke.
01:05:15Grandma, you've always wanted to see me get married, right?
01:05:18Let us do it today, right here, with you watching.
01:05:22Wait, we're not done here.
01:05:24Mia, what exactly are you trying to do?
01:05:25Are you deliberately trying to ruin this?
01:05:27Jasper, I'm not trying to cause trouble.
01:05:28I just don't want Aunt Elena and the rest of the family being lied to.
01:05:31Mia, what are you saying?
01:05:32Aunt Elena, doesn't this strike you as strange?
01:05:35For years, Jasper has been obsessed with the Culinary Legend.
01:05:37He's always said that if he couldn't marry her, anyone else would just be settling.
01:05:42So how does he suddenly meet the love of his life and call off an engagement over her?
01:05:46Jasper, Jasper, you didn't hire someone to pretend to be your bride, just to get out of this marriage, did
01:05:52you?
01:05:53No way, that's insane.
01:05:55That can't be true.
01:05:57Jasper would never lie to me.
01:05:59Jasper, answer me.
01:06:00Is this woman a fake bride you hired to deceive your grandmother?
01:06:04Dad, Grandma, don't listen to her.
01:06:06Stop making things up.
01:06:07Am I?
01:06:08Since the moment they got here, they've done everything they can to keep their distance.
01:06:11Other than holding hands, they haven't acted like a couple once.
01:06:14No chemistry.
01:06:16No affection.
01:06:17They don't look like two people about to get married.
01:06:19Because it's all fake!
01:06:22Oh, you want affection?
01:06:24Fine.
01:06:24We'll give you affection.
01:06:27Here, sweetheart.
01:06:29Have something sweet, and let me steal a taste.
01:06:52Why do her eyes feel so familiar?
01:06:54I told you, my grandson would never lie to me.
01:06:57Look at them.
01:06:58They're perfect together.
01:07:00You're the first man who's ever had the nerve to kiss me like that.
01:07:06Happy now?
01:07:07How does it feel watching the man you like kiss somebody else?
01:07:11Mr. Vance!
01:07:13Looks like quite the celebration you've got going on.
01:07:16That's Cyrus Potter.
01:07:17Daisy's father, the biggest name in the restaurant business in the state.
01:07:20And that kid with him, isn't that Senator Bruce's only son?
01:07:24Jasper just dumped his daughter.
01:07:26There's no way he's here for anything good.
01:07:36Relax.
01:07:38Why so tense?
01:07:39Mr. Potter, I owe you an apology.
01:07:42What Jasper did to your daughter was wrong.
01:07:44And I'm truly sorry.
01:07:46Forget the engagement.
01:07:48I heard your restaurant has a secret sauce.
01:07:50So good it can make anyone hungry.
01:07:53Senator Bruce asked me to bring young master Leo here to try it.
01:07:56If you can get him to eat, there'll be a very generous reward.
01:08:00If you can't, then maybe this restaurant doesn't deserve to stay in business.
01:08:04Mr. Potter, we do have the sauce.
01:08:06But I've injured my wrist recently.
01:08:07And young master Leo's condition is...
01:08:09So you're saying you can't meet a customer's needs?
01:08:12A restaurant that can't serve its guests has no business staying open.
01:08:16Perhaps I should recommend the senator shut this place down.
01:08:19No.
01:08:19Everybody knows Senator Bruce's son suffers from severe anorexia.
01:08:23World-class chefs have tried and failed to get him to eat.
01:08:25The only person who ever succeeded was the culinary legend, and the senator paid a hundred million dollars for that
01:08:31meal.
01:08:31You're not here for dinner.
01:08:33You're here to destroy us.
01:08:38That's right.
01:08:39You had the nerve to dump my daughter.
01:08:41Now you get to watch your whole family lose everything.
01:08:46Vance Restaurant is unable to serve its customers.
01:08:49That's grounds for closure.
01:08:51Tear it apart.
01:08:54Stop.
01:09:00What?
01:09:01Has Vance Restaurant fallen so low that it needs a woman to fight its battles?
01:09:05There she goes again.
01:09:07Always desperate for attention.
01:09:10What are you doing?
01:09:12This is my family's problem, not yours.
01:09:15Stay behind me.
01:09:17No one's ever tried to protect me before.
01:09:20You want payback for your daughter?
01:09:21Fine.
01:09:22This is all on me.
01:09:23Do whatever you want of me.
01:09:24Just leave my family out of it.
01:09:27Brave little fool.
01:09:30If you want to go down first, be my guest.
01:09:35Nobody lays a hand on my son.
01:09:38I will make something Master Leo enjoys.
01:09:40Until then, you don't touch a single member of my family, and you don't damage a single thing in my
01:09:45restaurant.
01:09:46They haven't even had a chance to cook yet.
01:09:48How can you shut them down already?
01:09:49He's not even trying to hide it.
01:09:51This is obviously a setup.
01:09:52Fine.
01:09:53But if you fail, don't blame me when I shut this place down on the spot.
01:10:07Let's see if you've got anything that can compete with the culinary legend.
01:10:29Please give it a try
01:10:41Oh my god, he ate it! Master Leo won't even touch food he doesn't like, but Chef Rowan actually got
01:10:48him to take a bite!
01:10:50Honey, you did it!
01:10:54Sage, what is it?
01:10:56The sauce is good, but the dish still isn't reaching its full potential.
01:11:01Are you saying my dish isn't good enough?
01:11:04Can you stop pretending you're some kind of expert?
01:11:07If there was something wrong with the dish, why would Master Leo eat it? Do you think we're all idiots?
01:11:24That's disgusting! Why would you serve me this?
01:11:29What? No way!
01:11:30She was right. She actually called it.
01:11:32Ha ha ha ha! Vance Restaurant has failed to satisfy its customer.
01:11:38Clearly unfit to operate.
01:11:40As the senator's representative.
01:11:42I'm shutting this place down immediately!
01:11:45Wait!
01:11:47Who says nobody in the Vance family can make something he'll eat?
01:11:52You're supposed to be some rich heiress.
01:11:55Since when do rich girls know how to cook? Stop making things worse.
01:11:59Ha! Rowan, have you really run out of options?
01:12:03You're actually hiding behind a woman now?
01:12:06Sage, stop.
01:12:07Be serious. You don't know how to cook.
01:12:10He doesn't need food. He needs a taste that reminds him what hunger feels like.
01:12:15A taste that wakes his appetite back up.
01:12:18And there's only one person in the world who knows how to do that.
01:12:21And it's me.
01:12:26Do you trust me?
01:12:28There's something about her. Something that makes you want to believe.
01:12:31Fine. One last chance.
01:12:34I want a dish on that table in ten minutes.
01:12:37And nobody helps her.
01:12:38Ten minutes? It takes five minutes just to prep the ingredients.
01:12:42Nobody can make a proper dish in ten.
01:12:44You've got one shot.
01:12:47Of course, you're welcome to give up now.
01:12:49You!
01:12:51Fine. But ten minutes is excessive.
01:12:54Give me three.
01:12:56Three minutes?
01:12:57Sage, this is no time for jokes!
01:12:59You can't even prep the ingredients in three minutes!
01:13:01If she wants to embarrass herself, who am I to stop her?
01:13:04Three minutes it is.
01:13:05Jasper, your fiancé has completely lost her mind!
01:13:09Are you sure about this?
01:13:11Three minutes isn't enough time.
01:13:13For someone else, maybe.
01:13:14Not for me.
01:13:17Oh!
01:13:31She carries chef's skills with her everywhere?
01:13:41Go ahead.
01:13:42Let's see what miracle you think you can pull off in three minutes.
01:13:47Go show them what you've got.
01:14:08How far along is she?
01:14:10Why is it so quiet?
01:14:11Maybe she realized she's in over her head and is back there crying.
01:14:2730 seconds.
01:14:29That's all you've got left.
01:14:30Jasper, I told you she couldn't do it!
01:14:32Mia, are you actually rooting for my family's restaurant to fail?
01:14:36That's not what I meant.
01:14:45What is that smell?
01:14:47I've never smelled anything like it before.
01:14:50Oh my God.
01:14:52I'm actually drooling.
01:14:54She cooked with oil, yet there's not a trace of smoke.
01:14:56Just the pure aroma of vegetables and meat.
01:14:58This is the pinnacle of the craft.
01:15:00The level only the culinary legend is supposed to reach.
01:15:03Jasper,
01:15:05who exactly did you bring home?
01:15:08Ten seconds!
01:15:10If she doesn't put a dish on that table,
01:15:12I'm shutting this place down!
01:15:22Please, enjoy.
01:15:30That's impossible!
01:15:37It's being in the matter!
01:15:39I want you to feel light when I'm feeling high.
01:15:41If she eats in my dummy's room,
01:15:42I like the thing that I have to transmit.
01:15:43You
