00:08:09we've had in our entire lives
00:08:11oh please
00:08:12it's nothing
00:08:13hey you pathetic
00:08:17self-important foodie
00:08:19I wonder if you're drooling yet
00:08:21shit
00:08:24I need my liquid nutrients
00:08:30Shit. I need my liquid nutrients.
00:08:52The protein shakes are gone. I'll have to make it with something else.
00:08:56This looks pretty good. Weird, I'm actually tempted to try it.
00:09:06It's not that I want to try it. I just need to test this girl's culinary skills.
00:09:17It smells pretty good.
00:09:26Ira? Are you there?
00:09:39Are you a sneaky cake burglar?
00:09:42I'm just taste testing.
00:09:44Well, I'm not stingy. You can have it, but you have to pay the cake tax.
00:09:56Get off me, you wet towel.
00:10:04Stuff to the brim. The foodie ate his way into an eating disorder?
00:10:14Alex, my heart is racing. What's happening to me?
00:10:18What a strange guy.
00:10:32Get done with Alex.
00:10:38She's actually quite pretty when she's not being so noisy.
00:10:40I'm not being so noisy.
00:11:03Take advantage of me like that.
00:11:04What the heck was that for?
00:11:09Is it too late to apologize?
00:11:11No, get out!
00:11:19Are you mad?
00:11:20We have the lost ancient recipe as a prize.
00:11:28Should be enough to lure out the culinary guru.
00:11:30Don't worry, sir.
00:11:32We've reached Blake, the culinary guru's top apprentice.
00:11:35He'll be a judge, and there might be news about the chef soon.
00:11:38Don?
00:11:40I made a new dish.
00:11:42Please take it to your boss.
00:11:44But you have to pay me before he eats it.
00:11:46Madam, the boss is busy with the culinary guru competition.
00:11:50He definitely won't be able to eat what you've made.
00:11:52You're still looking for the culinary guru?
00:11:54Boss is tough to heal.
00:11:56Only the culinary guru can help.
00:11:58We're using the lost ancient recipe as the prize for the cook-off to lure us out.
00:12:01The lost ancient recipe?
00:12:02That's a great prize.
00:12:03My mentor will be so happy if I win it.
00:12:05You have a mentor?
00:12:21Don't worry, Alex.
00:12:22I will cure you and win the cooking competition.
00:12:25You want to participate in the cooking competition?
00:12:27All the top chefs from the nation will be there.
00:12:30You should just forget about it. You'll be crushed.
00:12:33Just let me try. I can do it.
00:12:38Fine. Just don't be too upset if you lose.
00:12:42I'll give her a consolation prize privately if necessary.
00:12:46Great. I will show you what I can do.
00:12:51Did you hear? The head apprentice of the culinary guru is coming to judge today.
00:12:56Yeah. I just came to catch a glimpse of the legendary head apprentice.
00:13:00I heard Alex is bringing his new wife.
00:13:03I wonder what kind of woman the picky CEO ended up with.
00:13:08Alex's wife? That girl is just an ugly and unrefined country bumpkin.
00:13:15I can't believe Alex ended up with some broke and ugly chick.
00:13:19Look!
00:13:26I can't believe Ira is so full of herself now.
00:13:42Should I not have called off the engagement before?
00:13:45Don't be fooled by their current glamour.
00:13:48I've heard Alex's condition is worsening.
00:13:51Otherwise, he wouldn't be playing matchmaker for the culinary guru.
00:13:55Alex owns a food empire.
00:13:57If they could find culinary guru and cure him, it would only benefit that hick Ira.
00:14:03No way. I have to win Alex back.
00:14:06What's in those jars?
00:14:09Those are called spices.
00:14:13You're key to making gourmet dishes.
00:14:17You know nothing, country bumpkin.
00:14:21Oh, those are just flashy things.
00:14:24The most important part of real cuisine is to cook with the heart.
00:14:27It's how you bring out the ingredients as natural flavors.
00:14:30Despite her usual, unreliable demeanor, she actually has her own insights about food.
00:14:37You clueless hick. Don't pretend to know anything.
00:14:41There can only be one big winner tonight, and that's me.
00:14:45Iris is right. A chef who relies only on spices is a one-trick pony.
00:14:50I'd rather just drink my protein shakes.
00:14:52Well, hold on. It's not that bad.
00:14:55You deserve to starve, Alex.
00:14:58If you were for the possibility of the culinary guru appearing to cure your illness,
00:15:02I wouldn't even consider taking you back.
00:15:13Master Blake!
00:15:15We all admire you greatly.
00:15:19Master Blake.
00:15:21Still no news of the culinary guru?
00:15:23My master's gone into seclusion with the junior apprentice,
00:15:26and I have not been able to find out where he is.
00:15:29Blake!
00:15:30Hi, Ra. Long time no see.
00:15:32What are you doing here?
00:15:34How do you two know each other?
00:15:38Blake, the competition's about to start.
00:15:40The host is calling for you.
00:15:43Alex, don't worry.
00:15:45I think I'll still find the whereabouts of the culinary guru.
00:15:48Of course I know him.
00:15:49What could happen?
00:15:50People meet every day.
00:15:51Ladies and gentlemen.
00:15:52Today's winner will receive an ancient lobster recipe and a VIP fancy pink diamond from the
00:15:55Thompson family.
00:15:56The competition officially begins.
00:15:57There's only one room.
00:15:58Whoever can get picky food critic Alex Thompson to eat their dish, wins.
00:16:08I suggest you back down now before you embarrass yourself even more.
00:16:15The pressure won't drive her crazy, right?
00:16:16What's she doing?
00:16:17I need a big pot.
00:16:22Um, sure.
00:16:23No problem.
00:16:24I'm behind you.
00:16:25I suggest you back down now, before you embarrass yourself even more.
00:16:30The pressure won't drive her crazy, right?
00:16:35What's she doing?
00:16:40I need a big pot.
00:16:42Um, sure. No problem.
00:16:45Behind you.
00:16:47What a unique cooking method.
00:16:56Ira, what are you doing?
00:16:58You're disgracing the Williams family.
00:17:02I've got more tricks up my sleeve, Ira.
00:17:05Just wait and see how you make a fool of yourself.
00:17:18Just as I thought.
00:17:19Good thing I have my mentor's secret recipe.
00:17:25Can't even handle the basics.
00:17:28Try not to poison the judges with that shit.
00:17:33What's she doing?
00:17:34No seasonings?
00:17:36Hilarious.
00:17:37She's out for sure.
00:17:43Awful.
00:17:44Trash.
00:17:45This is an assault on my senses.
00:17:50Could there be a twist?
00:17:52Is Alex going to taste it?
00:17:57Up next, Michelin-starred chef Evelyn Williams.
00:18:01Will this dish impress?
00:18:04Alex, you're in for a treat.
00:18:07Alex, this dish seems different.
00:18:17Seems like you're savoring it.
00:18:22Totally flavorless.
00:18:24It's like my taste buds were on a vacation.
00:18:26I'll forget this dish the moment that I'm finished with it.
00:18:29For a chef, nothing is worse than being mediocre.
00:18:37Dizzy.
00:18:39Is there no food worthy of a gourmand like me?
00:18:42Looks like his taste buds are as sharp as ever.
00:18:45Anyone willing to try this stew stuff?
00:18:48Chaotic stew.
00:18:51Zero presentation, zero appeal.
00:18:53This dish doesn't even warrant a critique.
00:18:56I really overestimated Ira.
00:18:59Looks like Alex isn't interested in Ira's dish either.
00:19:03Will our gourmand go home empty handed?
00:19:05You guys don't understand.
00:19:07My stew will be unforgettable after just one bite.
00:19:17Ira, stop.
00:19:18You're an embarrassment to the profession.
00:19:21What's that?
00:19:23This familiar allure.
00:19:25I even want to try this ugly dish.
00:19:28What's happening?
00:19:29Why am I tempted by this ugly food?
00:19:31If I eat this, I may lose my reputation as a foodie.
00:19:36But I really want to try it.
00:20:01The one that's being made with me is the same as a foodie.
00:20:08So we'll have a coffee store.
00:20:10I'll be cascades out.
00:20:12We are going to buy a coffee shop.
00:20:14We're joining the company who's gonna die for a long time.
00:20:15We're going to buy the foodie.
00:20:17We're going to buy a coffee shop.
00:20:19We were going to buy a coffee shop.
00:20:22We're going to buy a coffee shop.
00:20:25I'm going to buy a coffee shop.
00:20:27The foodie's going to buy a coffee shop.
00:20:28Alex is as picky as a toddler.
00:20:46I'd finally made something he was willing to try, and then he fainted.
00:20:51Alex, you're so thin you could fit under a locked door.
00:20:54You're not looking healthy.
00:20:56Isn't he a handful?
00:20:57Yeah.
00:20:58All right.
00:20:59One more shot.
00:21:01The stew you made at the competition?
00:21:03Stay putt.
00:21:04I'll cure you.
00:21:11What?
00:21:12Where's my seasonings?
00:21:15Easy there, Ira.
00:21:16You can still do it.
00:21:17It will just take a bit more time.
00:21:21Ma'am, the boss has fainted again.
00:21:23Where's the dish ready?
00:21:26Again?
00:21:26Seriously?
00:21:28One sec.
00:21:31Strange.
00:21:31Hearing that Alex fainted made me cut my finger.
00:21:37It's just a little boo-boo.
00:21:39Who needs the culinary guru?
00:21:41Hang tight, Alex.
00:21:41I brought you the stew.
00:21:42I brought you the stew.
00:21:51Ira, you're late.
00:21:53Alex had my dish and is back on his feet.
00:21:56Oh, really?
00:21:57The dish that made him faint at the competition?
00:22:00I gotta try it.
00:22:04You did eat my stuff, right?
00:22:07Yeah.
00:22:08Thanks for that.
00:22:10Ira, get over here.
00:22:11No.
00:22:12Hey, what happened to your hand?
00:22:14So you do care, Alex?
00:22:16No, it's not like that.
00:22:17Just wrap it up before you bring me that stew.
00:22:20I don't want blood in my food.
00:22:21Forget that old stew.
00:22:23I'll take care of you, and I can fix your eating problem.
00:22:26Only food from the culinary guru counts.
00:22:29Everything else is trash.
00:22:30You...
00:22:31Hey, I can pay.
00:22:32I'm not after money.
00:22:35If Alex can eat my food, then I'm the best choice to be his wife.
00:22:40Ditch Ira, and let's get married.
00:22:44Marrying Alex means all his money is mine.
00:22:47Oh, don't count on me leaving Alex.
00:22:49That fortune is mine.
00:22:51Do you really want to be with someone after your cash?
00:22:55Not your business.
00:22:59Vaughn, give me a band-aid.
00:23:02Alex promised to share his inheritance with me.
00:23:10Do it yourself.
00:23:14Hello?
00:23:15Hello, my dear apprentice.
00:23:17I just got my phone and called you.
00:23:19How are you?
00:23:20I miss you, my dear.
00:23:22I thought I might come for a visit.
00:23:24Awesome.
00:23:25My mentor is coming to visit.
00:23:27Robert, I need backup.
00:23:29I married this rich guy, Alex Thompson,
00:23:31and now my stepsister is after him and his money.
00:23:34What are you talking about?
00:23:36I'm not after money.
00:23:38Ira, is that how you talk about me?
00:23:40Your mentor is going to think I'm an asshole.
00:23:43Why do you care what he thinks?
00:23:44Maybe you should worry about your own problems.
00:23:46Great news.
00:23:51Your appetite issues are about to be fixed.
00:23:54With me taking care of your meals, you'll be fine.
00:23:57Is her cooking skill really better than Ira?
00:24:00Actually, it's culinary guru.
00:24:02Really?
00:24:03Where is he?
00:24:04I've contacted Master.
00:24:06He's coming to help you.
00:24:07I need to win Alex over before he arrives.
00:24:14She hung up on me.
00:24:16I tell you, that Ira is getting way out of line.
00:24:19Wait a minute.
00:24:20Isn't Alex Thompson the CEO with the eating disorder
00:24:23that Blake asked me to treat?
00:24:25Oh.
00:24:26Oh, my dear apprentice.
00:24:38I'm on my way.
00:24:41Do you think they can kick me to the curb
00:24:43just because they found a culinary guru?
00:24:49Where'd I ever get this stuff, anyway?
00:24:52It actually got Alex to eat my food.
00:24:53But it's mine now.
00:24:58Once Alex drinks this love potion,
00:25:01he's all mine.
00:25:03Ha ha ha ha!
00:25:10Try my soup while it's still hot.
00:25:15How's it with the culinary guru?
00:25:18Could this seasoning be linked to the culinary guru?
00:25:21It's Ira's shit.
00:25:22That's a stretch.
00:25:24I could get used to it.
00:25:26Since you could finally eat,
00:25:28let me feed you.
00:25:29I got this.
00:25:30Thanks.
00:25:31Come on, don't push me away.
00:25:32What's wrong with you?
00:25:33And why is it so hot in here?
00:25:37Seriously, Evelyn, get off.
00:25:39Feeling warm?
00:25:40Let me help.
00:25:41Alex, something's off with the culinary guru.
00:25:46I'm here.
00:25:49This is how you help?
00:25:50I got to see this.
00:25:58Oh!
00:26:01Get lost!
00:26:09Feeling better already, huh?
00:26:11She calls that help,
00:26:13and you just watched me get groped.
00:26:15My heart.
00:26:25Am I sick too?
00:26:27Alex, you're burning up.
00:26:28Can I help?
00:26:30Yeah, I...
00:26:31I could use your help.
00:26:41Hey, what the hell?
00:26:43Well, you were overheating.
00:26:45You must have a fever.
00:26:46I thought it might cool you down.
00:26:48Did it work?
00:26:49Ira, you were such a dork.
00:26:54Dammit, Ira, you ruined my game.
00:26:57Seriously, you're such an idiot.
00:26:59You too, John?
00:27:00Alex, guess what?
00:27:02I met the culinary guru.
00:27:04He thinks I'm a prodigy
00:27:05and wants to take me on as his apprentice.
00:27:07If my master listens to me,
00:27:09I would make the right choice.
00:27:11Are you threatening me?
00:27:13With an apprentice like you,
00:27:15that culinary guru must be a joke.
00:27:17If I don't sweet-talk Alex into marrying me,
00:27:19I'll miss my shot when the culinary guru shows up.
00:27:22Alex, marry me,
00:27:24and I'll make sure the culinary guru cures you.
00:27:26Not a chance.
00:27:28Is Ira finally waking up?
00:27:30Wait.
00:27:32Alex tossed her dish at the competition.
00:27:34What's your secret to getting him to eat it now?
00:27:40Seasoning Alex could eat,
00:27:41that was the one Ira left behind
00:27:43at the culinary guru contest.
00:27:45Could it be?
00:27:46She's his apprentice!
00:27:48Ira, what's your connection to the culinary guru?
00:27:51Why do you keep asking me that?
00:27:53I don't know any culinary guru.
00:27:55So Ira really is the culinary guru's apprentice,
00:27:58and she doesn't even realize it.
00:27:59Well, maybe I can put that to use.
00:28:01Alex, how long can you wait?
00:28:04Don't you care about your health?
00:28:06Hands off the inheritance.
00:28:10Who's picking on my apprentice?
00:28:12Is that her mentor?
00:28:14Mentor?
00:28:15Does she be a culinary guru?
00:28:18Robert, you're here!
00:28:20Great to see you, kid.
00:28:22I've missed you tons.
00:28:27Nice digs you got here, kid.
00:28:29Oh, you landed a top to your husband, didn't you?
00:28:32I can't believe you're finally here.
00:28:33I've missed you heaps.
00:28:35The culinary guru is here.
00:28:39Everyone, me, Chef Robert McFombay.
00:28:41This guy?
00:28:43No way he's the world-famous culinary guru.
00:28:45He's as basic as Ira.
00:28:47Ira, bringing in some random grandpa
00:28:50just drags down Alex's reputation.
00:28:52Shut the fuck up, Evelyn.
00:28:54Don't insult my mentor.
00:28:56Let this queen twat yap.
00:29:00This is her only talent.
00:29:02Who are you calling twat?
00:29:04Old coon?
00:29:06I am the culinary guru's apprentice.
00:29:09One phone call, and I'll snuff you both out.
00:29:12The culinary guru's apprentice?
00:29:15Funny.
00:29:17Never heard of you.
00:29:18Please, people like you
00:29:24from the middle of nowhere
00:29:25wouldn't know a celebrity
00:29:26if you sat down right in front of you.
00:29:28Enough, Evelyn.
00:29:30Apologize to my mentor.
00:29:32What's so funny, old coot?
00:29:35You say you're the culinary guru's apprentice.
00:29:39Why not prove it
00:29:40with a cook-off with my apprentice?
00:29:43I just won the culinary championship.
00:29:48Why would I be scared of you, Ira?
00:29:50Last time you already lost.
00:29:52I was out last time,
00:29:54so that doesn't prove that Ira lost to you.
00:29:57Evelyn, I'm tired of your attitude.
00:30:00Threatening Alex with your cooking?
00:30:02Let's just see who says she actually wants a taste.
00:30:04Ira, get real.
00:30:06If Alex could stomach your food,
00:30:08he would have by now.
00:30:10We'll see.
00:30:13With my secret sauce,
00:30:20let's see you stand a chance, Ira.

00:30:32What?

00:37:38I didn't know you actually cared about me
00:37:41Well, you're such a picky eater
00:37:43You had me believing that my cooking needed some serious work

00:38:06Another review session?
00:38:07As your test subject
00:38:09You know, I have my pride too
00:38:11Why are you acting so serious?
00:38:12What's this mess?
00:38:19You know I'm a bit of a neat freak
00:38:22So, other than cooking
00:38:26Do you have any big dreams?
00:38:28I sure do!
00:38:29I need to save my dinner from burning
00:38:46Life's better when you can actually eat
00:38:56Why is my face so hot?
00:39:00Oh, crap! I ruined it!
00:39:02My first time messing up a dish and it's all Alex's fault?
00:39:06I must be cursed

00:39:12Oh, I love this suit! It's so nice!
00:39:15Thank you!
00:39:16Alex, since you're feeling better, I'm out of here!
00:39:17Oh, I love this suit! It's so nice!
00:39:22Thank you!
00:39:24Alex, since you're feeling better, I'm out of here!
00:39:25So, who's this?
00:39:26Hi! I'm Gina!
00:39:27Ira, who said you were leaving?
00:39:28You know what? I might stick around!
00:39:30Oh, my God!
00:39:31I'm at the front door!
00:39:32Oh, my God!
00:39:34I'm at the front door, I'm at the front door
00:39:36Oh, my God!
00:39:37Oh, my God!
00:39:38It's so nice!
00:39:39I'm at the front door!
00:39:43Hi, I'm Gina.
00:39:45Ira, you said you were leaving?
00:39:47You know what?
00:39:49I might stick around.
00:40:01What's the hurry?
00:40:03Grandma, Alex is downstairs chatting with some girl.
00:40:09Alex, I've missed you all these years.
00:40:11Oh, really?
00:40:13I don't believe it.
00:40:15Grandma, who is she?
00:40:17I don't buy it either.
00:40:19She's just acting sweet.
00:40:21She's Alex's first crush.
00:40:23The one that left him to study abroad.
00:40:25Without a thought.
00:40:27Gina, didn't you swear you were done with this place?
00:40:37Missed you all these years.
00:40:39I came back because my heart belongs to you.
00:40:41Looks like Ira's catching feelings for Alex.
00:40:47I know I blew it before.
00:40:49I put my plans before us
00:40:51and threw away everything that we had,
00:40:53but I'm here.
00:40:55I'm willing to throw away all my pride,
00:40:57whatever it takes.
00:40:59Just say I'll give it one more chance.
00:41:01Gina, you left him with nothing but a letter.
00:41:03I was lost trying to make sense of it for so long.
00:41:07And now you're back.
00:41:08What's the point?
00:41:09Alex, I came back for us.
00:41:11I've never forgotten about us.
00:41:13After all these years, I know you still feel it too.
00:41:17You haven't forgotten what we had.
00:41:19Let's just give it another shot.
00:41:29Oh! God!
00:41:31Aren't you hungry, Alex?
00:41:33Let's go.
00:41:35Alex!
00:41:37I married them.
00:41:39Just go.
00:41:42OHH!
00:41:43OHH!
00:41:44OHH!
00:41:45OHH!
00:41:46OHH!
00:41:47OHH!
00:41:48Oh my ankle! I twisted it!
00:41:49OHH!
00:41:50OHH!
00:41:51Oh my ankle, I twisted it.
00:41:52OHH!
00:41:53OHH!
00:41:54OHH!
00:41:55OHH!
00:41:56The K-
00:41:57OHH!
00:41:58OHH!
00:41:59OHH!
00:42:00OHH!
00:42:01You okay?
00:42:20I twisted it. It hurts.
00:42:22Oh, Alex.
00:42:23Put the ointment on it like you're used to.
00:42:26I haven't forgotten how sweet you are.
00:42:29I'll take care of it.
00:42:31I'll take care of it.
00:42:33Ow! Ow! Ow!
00:42:37Myra's acting all weird.
00:42:40Is she finally feeling jealous?
00:42:48No, Frank. She's totally fading.
00:42:56Ow! Easy! You're crushing me!
00:43:00Oh, you're fine.
00:43:01But this time, I'm going to make sure it really hurts.
00:43:12Ira! Where are you going?
00:43:19Ira, you look like you lost your puppy.
00:43:21Alex's ex is back in town.
00:43:22Better keep your eye out.
00:43:27Alex is my husband. I'm not letting anyone take his fortune.
00:43:31Yeah, where a guy's heart goes, the wallet soon follows.
00:43:34Well, then I'll make sure Alex loves me.
00:43:36You've got your work cut out for you.
00:43:39You've got your work cut out for you.
00:43:40Body, she's got your beak.
00:43:42Looks, she's classy. You're comfy.
00:43:45She's got her degree and you're still learning.
00:43:49Personality, she's sweet.
00:43:53You're hungry.
00:43:54And don't forget, she's Alex's first love.
00:43:57Guys, don't forget that.
00:44:02Well, crap. I guess I don't stand a chance.
00:44:04Well, you got one ace up your sleeve.
00:44:07You were there for him and helped him through his eating disorder.
00:44:13You were there when he needed you.
00:44:16I've got to cook something good.
00:44:18There's no way I'm letting go of that fortune.
00:44:23Poor kid.
00:44:25She's got it bad and doesn't even know it.
00:44:28Thinks it's all about the cash.
00:44:33Really? No second chance for me?
00:44:37Gina, I'm taken.
00:44:40Take care.
00:44:49Hi, it's Ira.
00:44:50Sorry I missed your call.
00:44:52Leave a message.
00:44:53Where's Ira?
00:44:55She's just dodging my calls.
00:44:59Must be Ira.
00:45:01Time to see if she's jealous.
00:45:08Got it, Alex.
00:45:09I'll be leaving tomorrow.
00:45:10Let's have this drink as a farewell.
00:45:13Cheers to your next chapter.
00:45:14Are you alright?
00:45:29Here, let me help you.
00:45:30Oh, Alex, we have so much time.
00:46:00I'll catch up on after all this time.
00:46:08Alex, you have to try my new dish.
00:46:20Alex, Ira left because she's upset with us.
00:46:23What do you think we should do?
00:46:25Get off.
00:46:27Ira!
00:46:30Alex.
00:46:32Gina, seriously?
00:46:34You drugged my drink.
00:46:36That's low even for you.
00:46:37Alex, no, come on.
00:46:40Get off.
00:46:43You're gonna regret this.
00:46:52Steven, the chef's apprentice is out.
00:46:55You're halfway to taking the food court project.
00:46:58Well done, Gina.
00:47:00Alex, remember when you trashed Snow for using garbage ingredients?
00:47:06This time, I'm gonna wipe the floor with you and show you how wrong you were.
00:47:11We need top quality ingredients for this project, or-
00:47:14I got it.
00:47:16I don't know, you've reminded me of something.
00:47:18Besides the apprentice of Culinary Grower, Alex has got his own head chefs.
00:47:22Come on back.
00:47:24I'll poach them all and leave him with nothing to fight back.
00:47:26Once we snag the food court project, I'll get my share, right?
00:47:31Absolutely.
00:47:32You'll get your cut.
00:47:35Alex, I gave you a chance.
00:47:38This is all on you.
00:47:49She blocked me.
00:47:51Was she a teenager?
00:47:54Boss?
00:47:55We've got a problem.
00:47:56That stupid Steven's been stealing our chefs left and right.
00:47:59We won't have a head chef for the Food City project next week,
00:48:01and where it is we're heading for bankruptcy!
00:48:04Of all the times for Ira to throw a fit.
00:48:08Get on it.
00:48:09Find us a new chef before the bidding meeting.
00:48:11Hot off the press, KL's group's top chef have flocked over to Steven Snow Group,
00:48:23leaving little doubt about who will win next week's Food City project.
00:48:28Could this be the beginning of the end for KL Group?
00:48:31Oh, man, Alex is in trouble.
00:48:34So what?
00:48:34He has Gina now, doesn't he?
00:48:37Yeah, I guess.
00:48:39Alex is yesterday's news.
00:48:40I'm gonna go cook.
00:48:41Is it really that bad?
00:48:47Are you thinking about helping Alex?
00:48:48No.
00:48:49After the judges voting,
00:48:56the finalists for the Food City bidding competition are KL Group and Snow Group.
00:49:03All right, folks, it's time for round two,
00:49:09where we invite our star Michelin-starred chefs to the plate to create their magnum opuses.
00:49:14Let's get things started with Snow Group.
00:49:17Please give her a warm welcome, folks.
00:49:26Gina.
00:49:29Didn't expect this, did you, Alex?
00:49:33Gina's been on my side the entire time.
00:49:35All that talk of you two getting back together,
00:49:38just a little trick to separate you from your precious apprentice.
00:49:42Alex,
00:49:43I gave you a chance.
00:49:48When you told everybody that my company uses inferior ingredients,
00:49:52I swore I was going to bring you down.
00:49:55Your character is just like your ingredients,
00:49:58rotten on the inside and out.
00:50:02Keep talking tough, Alex.
00:50:03But where are you now?
00:50:05No head chef,
00:50:07no culinary genius.
00:50:09I'm going to snatch that project you've been drooling over.
00:50:12And then I'm going to watch KL Group crumble.
00:50:18Ladies and gentlemen, now we have the lovely Miss Gina ready to present her dish.
00:50:24KL Group, it's your turn to step up.
00:50:28What's going on?
00:50:29Why is there nobody on Alex's side?
00:50:31Man, it looks like they're ready to wave the white flag.
00:50:33Officer, now we're going to fall on chef.
00:50:36Oh, there's a little arrow right here.
00:50:38Just go ahead and throw in the towel, Alex.
00:50:40Even if you squeak by the first round,
00:50:42you've got no one for the second.
00:50:48She's got me all wrong, and I don't think she's coming back.
00:50:51This misunderstanding is too deep.
00:51:01Since we have no one from KL Group to compete,
00:51:06Since we have no one from KL group to compete, I hereby announce that the winner is Snow!
00:51:33Wait a minute!
00:51:36Alex!
00:51:37I'm back!
00:51:38What's the score?
00:51:43We're toast.
00:51:44I thought Gina was your ace.
00:51:47Guess she's not cutting it, huh?
00:51:49It's not like that with her and me.
00:51:51And Gina's representing Steven in this competition.
00:51:53So your little reunion didn't go as planned?
00:51:56Ira, nothing happened with her.
00:51:59I will represent the KL group.
00:52:01I'll take Gina on myself.
00:52:03Aren't we expecting to see Michelin starred chefs on stage?
00:52:08Are you really in that league?
00:52:10No, I'm not.
00:52:11How can she compete when she doesn't have any credentials, especially against Gina?
00:52:16I mean, she has royal chef status.
00:52:21Royal chef?
00:52:22Never heard of it.
00:52:23I was trained by the culinary guru though, if that means anything.
00:52:27What?
00:52:28Look at the culinary guru hasn't been around for ages.
00:52:31And besides, Gina, she trained with the sea guru Robert.
00:52:34She said she trained with them?
00:52:36I mean, what?
00:52:37Wait, you're the culinary guru's apprentice?
00:52:44So Steven stole all of Alex's chefs.
00:52:47Well, I may not be Michelin star status, but I have what it takes to represent the KL group.
00:52:53Why do you think you can represent KL?
00:52:56Because I'm his wife.
00:52:57That's why.
00:52:58Ira, you're a lifesaver.
00:53:03Let's see what you cook up.
00:53:06I'll give it a try and we'll see who takes the crown.
00:53:11And who are you, old man?
00:53:13What makes you think you're in charge here?
00:53:16He's Alan Ducasse, president of the DuPont Group.
00:53:19The project's big cheese.
00:53:21He's definitely the one with the final say.
00:53:28Sir, this is the dish from Snoke.
00:53:32Rich and aromatic.
00:53:37Like you're basking in a warm Mediterranean sun.
00:53:42I created this with the combined efforts of three top chefs.
00:53:46So good luck beating that, Ira.
00:53:49You may be the culinary guru's apprentice, but that doesn't mean that you can outshine the work of four of us combined.
00:54:00Seriously, you think you could compete with something so simple and rough?
00:54:05This is what the culinary guru's apprentice comes up with? It's so inelegant.
00:54:10You don't understand.
00:54:12A chef who can't cook with pure ingredients will never make the best food.
00:54:16I was right.
00:54:19A chef who relies only on spices is a one-trick pony.
00:54:23I'd rather just drink my protein shakes.
00:54:25What's up with Alan? Why isn't he saying anything?
00:54:39Do you think the stuff is that bad?
00:54:41It must be terrible.
00:54:42Mr. Alan's in tears.
00:54:44No one asked your opinion.
00:54:46Mr. Alan, how does it taste?
00:54:48My dream since I was young was to taste the best food in the world.
00:54:57I never guessed I would do it today.
00:55:00I've waited 30 years for this dish.
00:55:03I declare the KL group, led by Alex, winner.
00:55:07This isn't fair!
00:55:08I used the best, most expensive ingredients for my dish!
00:55:12How can plain scrambled eggs beat that?
00:55:14If all they care about is chasing fancy and extravagant,
00:55:18that is not what the project needs.
00:55:20Snow group doesn't cut it.
00:55:23Just wait, Alex. I'm gonna make you pay!
00:55:25Hey!
00:55:28Ira, you crushed it! Food City project is ours!
00:55:31I told you I could do it!
00:55:33Miss Ira, I have to know.
00:55:36What were you thinking while you were whipping those eggs that came so delicious?
00:55:41I guess I was just thinking about someone special.
00:55:47Miss Ira, sounds like you have it for that person.
00:55:55Miss Ira, you promised me a surprise.
00:56:05What is it?
00:56:07Ira, thanks for everything in this competition.
00:56:11This is a family heirloom, meant for Mrs. Thompson.
00:56:16So Ira, will you be mine forever?
00:56:25Stay forever?
00:56:29That sounds boring.
00:56:31I haven't even explored the world yet.
00:56:33Guess I can't keep the bracelet, huh?
00:56:39Ira, do you not get it, or are you just messing with me?
00:56:48Hey Alex, what's up? You called for me?
00:56:50I have two gifts for you.
00:56:55Here is a card with half my fortune.
00:56:57Take it as a thank you.
00:56:59Alex, you're the best. I love cash.
00:57:04Now I can buy all the ingredients I want and travel anywhere.
00:57:07Ira, I like you.
00:57:10I want to take our relationship to the next level.
00:57:12What do you think? How do you feel about me?
00:57:17Um, you certainly have the money and you let me prove my cooking abilities.
00:57:22You really have made all my dreams come true.
00:57:24Alright.
00:57:25You want out, right?
00:57:27I'll give you the money and the freedom you want.
00:57:31Here's a divorce agreement.
00:57:35Let's end this.
00:57:46Ira, sign this and you're free.
00:57:49I'm leaving the country after it's done.
00:57:51Take care.
00:57:52I just remembered something.
00:58:09What does Alex mean?
00:58:17Why can't I stop thinking about him?
00:58:19Why was I thinking about Alex all night?
00:58:26Alex seemed off yesterday.
00:58:29Maybe I should cheer him up when I see him.
00:58:32Oh crap, I never signed the divorce papers.
00:58:35How do I bring that up?
00:58:41Where's Alex?
00:58:42It feels weird not seeing him around.
00:58:44Okay.
00:58:45Grandma?
00:58:46Where's Alex?
00:58:47Oh, Alex?
00:58:48He's at the airport.
00:58:49About to jet off.
00:58:50Congrats, honey.
00:58:51You'll finally be free.
00:58:52No more Alex to nag you.
00:58:53What?
00:58:54Boss, the plane is boarding.
00:58:55It looks like she's not coming.
00:58:56She didn't even bother to show up.
00:58:57What?
00:58:58Boss, the plane is boarding.
00:58:59It looks like she's not coming.
00:59:00She didn't even bother to show up.
00:59:01What?
00:59:02Boss, the plane is boarding.
00:59:03Boss, the plane is boarding.
00:59:04It looks like she's not coming.
00:59:05Attention please.
00:59:06She didn't even bother to show up.
00:59:07Like I can.
00:59:08Vaughn, let's go home.
00:59:09Alex!
00:59:10I can't stand the thought of losing you.
00:59:11I can't stand the thought of losing you.
00:59:12I can't stand the thought of losing you.
00:59:13I can't stand the thought of losing you.
00:59:14I can't stand the thought of losing you.
00:59:16I can't stand the thought of losing you.
00:59:18I can't stand the thought of losing you.
00:59:19Ibra, if I stay, you'll end up leaving.
00:59:23You want your freedom and you don't love me.
00:59:26I can't be selfish and keeping trapped in this marriage.
00:59:40I don't want you to leave.
00:59:43Why not?
00:59:45Because, because when I'm not with you, you're all I think about.
00:59:53Alex, you asked me how I felt, and I finally know.
00:59:58I love you.
01:00:03Ira.
01:00:07I love you, too.
01:00:15I'm not finding this.
01:00:20That's not real, it doesn't matter.
01:00:23Huh?
01:00:39Now, Frank, she's totally faking it.
01:00:45Oh, easy, you're crushing me.
01:00:50Oh, you're fine, but this time, I'm going to make sure it really hurts.
01:01:02Ira, where are you going?
01:01:09Ira, you look like you lost your puppy.
01:01:11Alex's ex is back in town.
01:01:16Better keep your eye out.
01:01:18Alex is my husband.
01:01:19I'm not letting anyone take his fortune.
01:01:21Yeah, where a guy's heart goes, the wallet soon follows.
01:01:25Well, then I'll make sure Alex loves me.
01:01:28Got your work cut out for you.
01:01:30Body, she's got your feet.
01:01:32Looks.
01:01:33She's classy, you're comfy.
01:01:35She's got her degree, and you're still learning.
01:01:40Personality, she's sweet.
01:01:42You're hungry.
01:01:45Don't forget she's Alex's first love.
01:01:47Guys, don't forget that.
01:01:52Well, crap.
01:01:53I guess I don't stand a chance.
01:01:55Well, you got one ace up your sleeve.
01:01:58You were there for him, and helped him through his eating disorder.
01:02:03You were there when he needed you.
01:02:04I've got to cook something good.
01:02:08There's no way I'm letting go of that fortune.
01:02:13Poor kid.
01:02:15She's got it bad, and doesn't even know it.
01:02:18Thinks it's all about the cash.
01:02:22Really, no second chance for me.
01:02:27Gina, I'm taken.
01:02:30Take care.
01:02:30Hi, it's Ira.
01:02:41Sorry I missed your call.
01:02:42Leave a message.
01:02:43Where's Ira?
01:02:46It's just dodging my calls.
01:02:49That must be Ira.
01:02:51Time to see if she's jealous.
01:02:58Got it, Alex.
01:02:59I'll be leaving tomorrow.
01:03:01Let's have this drink as a farewell.
01:03:03Cheers to your next chapter.
01:03:18Are you alright?
01:03:19Here, let me help you.
01:03:21Oh.
01:03:23Oh.
01:03:24Oh.
01:03:24Oh, Alex.
01:03:32We have so much to catch up on after all this time.
01:03:37Alex, you have to try my new dish.
01:03:48Alex, Ira left because she's upset with us.
01:03:51What do you think we should do?
01:03:54Get off.
01:03:56Ira.
01:03:58Alex.
01:04:01Gina, seriously?
01:04:02You drugged my drink.
01:04:04That's low even for you.
01:04:06Alex, no.
01:04:07Come on.
01:04:09Get off.
01:04:12You're going to regret this.
01:04:13Steven, the chef's apprentice is out.
01:04:24You're halfway to taking the food court project.
01:04:27Well done, Gina.
01:04:29Alex, remember when you trashed Snow for using garbage ingredients?
01:04:34This time, I'm going to wipe the floor with you and show you how wrong you were.
01:04:39We need top quality ingredients for this project, or-
01:04:43I got it.
01:04:44Uh-oh, you've reminded me of something.
01:04:46Besides the apprentice of Culinary Grower,
01:04:49Alex has got his own head chefs.
01:04:51I'm back.
01:04:52I'll poach them all and leave him with nothing to fight back.
01:04:54Once we snag the food court project, I'll get my share, right?
01:04:59Absolutely.
01:05:01I'll get you good.
01:05:04Alex, I gave you a chance.
01:05:06Alex, this is all on you.
01:05:18She blocked me.
01:05:20What, is she a teenager?
01:05:23Boss?
01:05:24We've got a problem.
01:05:25That stupid Steven's been stealing our chefs left and right.
01:05:28We won't have a head chef for the Food City Project next week,
01:05:30and word is we're heading for bankruptcy.
01:05:32Of all the times for Ira to throw a fit.
01:05:35Get on it.
01:05:38Find us a new chef before the bidding meeting.
01:05:46Hot off the press,
01:05:48KL's group's top chef have flocked over to Steven Snow Group,

01:06:06Yeah, I guess.
01:06:08Alex is yesterday's news.
01:06:09I'm gonna go cook.
01:06:10Is it really that bad?

01:06:25the finalists for the Food City Bidding Competition are

01:06:38where we invite our star,
01:06:39Michelin-starred chefs to the plate

01:06:45Please,

01:07:53KL Group,
01:07:54it's your turn to step up.
01:07:57What's going on?
01:07:58Why is there no being on Alex's side?
01:08:00It looks like they're ready to wave the white flag.
01:08:02Paul's right now.
01:08:03I don't have to call my chef.
01:08:05I don't have to lie over here.
01:08:07Just go ahead and throw in the towel, Alex.
01:08:09Even if you squeak by the first round,
01:08:11you've got no one for the second.
01:08:17She's got me all wrong,
01:08:18and I don't think she's coming back.
01:08:20This misunderstanding is too deep.
01:08:23Since we have no one from KL Group to compete,
01:08:26I hereby announce that the winner is
01:08:29Snow!
01:08:30Wait a minute!
01:08:34Alex, I'm back.
01:08:39What's the score?
01:08:41We're toast.
01:08:42I thought Gina was your ace.
01:08:44I guess she's not cutting it, huh?
01:08:46It's not like that with her and me.
01:08:48And Gina's representing Stephen in this competition.
01:08:50So your little reunion didn't go as planned?
01:08:53Ira,
01:08:54nothing happened with her.
01:08:56I will represent the KL Group.
01:08:58I'll take Gina on myself.
01:09:01Aren't we expecting to see
01:09:03Michelin-starred chefs on stage?
01:09:05Are you really in that league?
01:09:06No, I'm not.
01:09:08How can she compete
01:09:10when she doesn't have any credentials,
01:09:12especially against Gina?
01:09:13I mean,
01:09:14she has royal chef status.
01:09:17Royal chef?
01:09:18Never heard of it.
01:09:20I was trained by the culinary guru, though,
01:09:21if that means anything.
01:09:24But the culinary guru
01:09:26hasn't been around for ages.
01:09:28And besides,
01:09:29Gina,
01:09:29she trained with the sea guru Robert.
01:09:32She said she trained with them?
01:09:33I mean,
01:09:34what?
01:09:35Wait,
01:09:36you're
01:09:37the culinary guru's
01:09:39apprentice?
01:09:41So,
01:09:42Stephen stole
01:09:42all of Alex's chefs.
01:09:44Well,
01:09:45I may not be
01:09:46Michelin-starred status,
01:09:47but
01:09:47I have what it takes
01:09:48to represent the KL Group.
01:09:50Why do you think
01:09:51you can represent KL?
01:09:53Because I'm his wife.
01:09:54That's why.
01:09:57Ira,
01:09:57you're a lifesaver.
01:09:58let's see what you
01:10:01cook up.
01:10:04I'll give it a try,
01:10:05and we'll see
01:10:06who takes the crown.
01:10:08And who are you,
01:10:09old man?
01:10:11What makes you think
01:10:11you're in charge here?
01:10:13He's
01:10:13Alan Ducasse,
01:10:15president of the Dupont Group,
01:10:16the project's big cheese.
01:10:21Oh,
01:10:22he's definitely
01:10:22the one with the final say.
01:10:24Sir,
01:10:27this is the dish
01:10:27from Snow Group.
01:10:32Rich
01:10:33and aromatic,
01:10:34like you're
01:10:35basking
01:10:36in a warm
01:10:37Mediterranean sun.
01:10:39I created this
01:10:40with the combined
01:10:41efforts of
01:10:42three
01:10:42top chefs,
01:10:44so good luck
01:10:44beating that,
01:10:45Ira.
01:10:46You may be
01:10:46the culinary guru's
01:10:47apprentice,
01:10:48but that doesn't mean
01:10:49that you can outshine
01:10:50the work of
01:10:50four of us
01:10:51combined.
01:10:54Seriously,
01:10:58you think you
01:10:59can compete
01:11:00with something
01:11:00so simple
01:11:01and rough?
01:11:02This is what
01:11:03the culinary
01:11:04guru's apprentice
01:11:05comes up with?
01:11:06It's so
01:11:06inelegant.
01:11:08You don't understand.
01:11:09A chef who can't
01:11:10cook with pure
01:11:11ingredients will never
01:11:12make the best food.
01:11:15Ira's right.
01:11:16A chef who relies
01:11:17only on spices
01:11:18is a one-trick pony.
01:11:20I'd rather just
01:11:21drink my protein shake.
01:11:24What's up with Alan?
01:11:34Why isn't he
01:11:34saying anything?
01:11:36Do you think
01:11:37the stuff is that bad?
01:11:38It must be terrible.
01:11:40Mr. Alan's in tears.
01:11:42No one asked
01:11:42your opinion.
01:11:43Mr. Alan,
01:11:44how does it taste?
01:11:45My dream
01:11:49since I was young
01:11:50was to taste
01:11:51the best food
01:11:52in the world.
01:11:53I never guessed
01:11:54I would do it
01:11:55today.
01:11:56I've waited
01:11:5630 years
01:11:58for this dish.
01:11:59I declare
01:12:00the KL group
01:12:02led by Alex
01:12:03winner.
01:12:04This isn't fair!
01:12:05I use the best,
01:12:07most expensive
01:12:07ingredients
01:12:08for my dish!
01:12:09How can plain
01:12:09scrambled eggs
01:12:10beat that?
01:12:11If all they care
01:12:12about is chasing
01:12:13fancy and extravagant,
01:12:14that is not
01:12:15what the project
01:12:16needs.
01:12:17Snow group
01:12:17just doesn't
01:12:19cut it.
01:12:20Just wait,
01:12:21Alex,
01:12:21I'm gonna make
01:12:21you pay!
01:12:24Ira,
01:12:25you crushed it!
01:12:26Food City
01:12:27Project is ours!
01:12:27I told you
01:12:28I could do it!
01:12:30Miss Ira,
01:12:31I have to know,
01:12:33what were you
01:12:33thinking while
01:12:34you were whipping
01:12:35those eggs?
01:12:36It became so delicious.
01:12:37I guess I was
01:12:39just thinking
01:12:40about someone
01:12:41special.
01:12:44Miss Ira,
01:12:45sounds like
01:12:47you have it
01:12:48for that person.
01:12:54Oh?
01:12:59Alex,
01:13:00you promised
01:13:00me a surprise.
01:13:02What is it?
01:13:04Ira,
01:13:05thanks for
01:13:06everything in
01:13:06this competition.
01:13:08This is a family heirloom
01:13:09meant for
01:13:11Mrs. Thompson.
01:13:13So Ira,
01:13:14will you be mine
01:13:16forever?
01:13:24Stay forever?
01:13:26That sounds boring.
01:13:28I haven't even
01:13:28explored the world yet.
01:13:30Guess I can't
01:13:30keep the bracelet,
01:13:31huh?
01:13:35Ira,
01:13:36do you not
01:13:36get it
01:13:37or are you
01:13:38just messing
01:13:38with me?
01:13:45Hey Alex,
01:13:45what's up?
01:13:46You called for me?
01:13:48I have two gifts
01:13:48for you.
01:13:52Here's a card
01:13:52with half my fortune.
01:13:54Take it
01:13:55as a thank you.
01:13:55Alex, you're the best.
01:14:00I love cash.
01:14:01Now I can buy
01:14:02all the ingredients
01:14:03I want
01:14:03and travel anywhere.
01:14:06Ira,
01:14:06I like you.
01:14:08I want to take
01:14:08our relationship
01:14:09to the next level.
01:14:10What do you think?
01:14:11How do you feel
01:14:11about me?
01:14:14Um,
01:14:15you certainly
01:14:16have the money
01:14:16and you let me
01:14:17prove my cooking
01:14:18abilities.
01:14:19You really have
01:14:20made all my dreams
01:14:21come true.
01:14:22Ira,
01:14:22you want out,
01:14:24right?
01:14:26I'll give you the money
01:14:27and the freedom
01:14:27you want.
01:14:30Here's a divorce
01:14:31agreement.
01:14:33Let's end this.
01:14:34Ira,
01:14:44sign this
01:14:45and you're free.
01:14:47I'm leaving
01:14:47the country
01:14:48after it's done.
01:14:49Take care.
01:14:50I just remembered
01:14:52something.
01:15:04What does Alex
01:15:07mean?
01:15:14Why can't I
01:15:15stop thinking
01:15:15about him?
01:15:22Why was I
01:15:22thinking about Alex
01:15:23all night?
01:15:24Alex seemed
01:15:25off yesterday.
01:15:27Maybe I should
01:15:28cheer him up
01:15:28when I see him.
01:15:29Oh, crap.
01:15:30I never signed
01:15:31the divorce papers.
01:15:32How do I
01:15:33bring that up?
01:15:34Where's Alex?
01:15:39It feels weird
01:15:40not seeing him
01:15:41around.
01:15:44Okay.
01:15:45Grandma,
01:15:45where's Alex?
01:15:46Oh, Alex,
01:15:47he's at the airport
01:15:48about to jet off.
01:15:50Congrats, honey.
01:15:51You'll finally be
01:15:52free.
01:15:53No more Alex
01:15:54to nag you.
01:15:55What?
01:16:04boss, the plane
01:16:05is boarding.
01:16:06It looks like
01:16:06she's not coming.
01:16:08She didn't even
01:16:09bother to show up.
01:16:12Like I can.
01:16:15Vaughn,
01:16:16let's go home.
01:16:20Alex!
01:16:21I can't stand the thought
01:16:27of losing you.
01:16:27I can't stand the thought
01:16:29of losing you.
01:16:30Ira,
01:16:31if I stay,
01:16:32you'll end up leaving.
01:16:34You want your freedom
01:16:34and you don't love me.
01:16:36I can't be selfish
01:16:37in keeping trapped
01:16:38in this marriage.
01:16:39I don't want you
01:16:40to leave.
01:16:40Why not?
01:16:42Because.
01:16:45Because when I'm not
01:16:45with you,
01:16:47you're all I think
01:16:48about.
01:16:49Alex,
01:16:50you asked me how I felt
01:16:51and I finally know.
01:16:54I love you.
01:16:59Ira.
01:17:03I love you too.
01:17:10I'm not finding this.
01:17:17That's not real.
01:17:18It doesn't matter.
01:17:19Huh?
