00:00:00Dan, what are you doing here?
00:00:25I should ask you the same thing.
00:00:27School's been out a month.
00:00:28I'm trying to get next year's bolognese recipe as good as mom's.
00:00:32It's summer, Katie.
00:00:33You should be out of the classroom.
00:00:35Yes, I know, but I love it here.
00:00:37Creating perfectly prepared recipes and then watching students get delectable results is...
00:00:42Besides, first day of school comes fast.
00:00:44It's like dad says, fail to plan and...
00:00:46And plan to fail.
00:00:47Exactly.
00:00:47Here, try.
00:00:54That's not even the spicy one.
00:00:56Hard to believe we share the same DNA.
00:00:5750% with fraternal twins.
00:00:59I know.
00:01:00You got the 50% that likes hot sauce.
00:01:02You're the cool twin.
00:01:02He says to the teacher that is still at school on summer break.
00:01:06Which is why I'm here, to free you from this and take you to...
00:01:11Get a new phone?
00:01:12Well, no, this model hasn't even come out yet.
00:01:15But look at the picture.
00:01:19Peru?
00:01:20Peru.
00:01:22No.
00:01:23No, I can't do that.
00:01:24Yes, you can.
00:01:25No, no.
00:01:26For me...
00:01:27Dan, I'm not going.
00:01:28Six pounds at birth.
00:01:30Huh.
00:01:30Five pounds.
00:01:32You owe me for life.
00:01:34You're using that again?
00:01:35Yep.
00:01:35What is this really about?
00:01:38You're making that face.
00:01:40No.
00:01:41My twin tuition is tingling.
00:01:43Mine isn't.
00:01:44Why did Grandma say that you called her last week?
00:01:47Come on.
00:01:48I want you to meet Luciana's family.
00:01:49It's going to be a special trip.
00:01:50Third wheeling.
00:01:51Great.
00:01:52You won't be the third wheel.
00:01:53I promise.
00:01:54We're going to be 30 this year.
00:01:55Thank you for the reminder.
00:01:56But I already have the rest of my 20s planned out.
00:01:58You know, they say a truly great teacher needs to go out and learn in order to bring something
00:02:04back to impart on their students.
00:02:06Peru's an amazing culinary melting pot.
00:02:08Let's get out of Michigan and see the world.
00:02:12Did you say culinary melting pot?
00:02:17I don't know.
00:02:20I don't speak Spanish.
00:02:22You do.
00:02:23Who better to convince Luci's family I'm the greatest guy in the world than my big sister?
00:02:27I am bigger by eight minutes.
00:02:28Please, Katie.
00:02:30I need you.
00:02:32Please.
00:02:35Okay.
00:02:36Okay.
00:02:36I will go to Peru.
00:02:37Yes.
00:02:38Peru, here we come.
00:02:42Peru.
00:02:58What is that?
00:03:04I'm beta testing it for work.
00:03:06Geolocation tracking with pop-up points of interest.
00:03:09So a map?
00:03:10Uh, comes with a 4K 360 telepresence camera and real-time projection.
00:03:16I make you speak Spanish?
00:03:17You are fluent and geek.
00:03:20There she is.
00:03:21Mi amor!
00:03:21Oh, I missed you.
00:03:25I miss you, too.
00:03:26It's been too long.
00:03:28It's been a week.
00:03:29Oh, hi, Katie.
00:03:31I'm so happy you are here, too.
00:03:32I can't wait to show you both my hometown, my family.
00:03:37Oh.
00:03:37All right.
00:03:38I'll let you do that.
00:03:40I'm going to check out the plaza.
00:03:41Okay.
00:03:42Let's go.
00:03:43Oi, the big.
00:03:43Sucks.
00:03:45Sucks.
00:03:45Sucks.
00:03:45Sucks.
00:03:46Sucks.
00:03:46Sucks.
00:03:47Hey, hey, hey.
00:04:15Hey, hey, hey.
00:04:15Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:04:45Oh.
00:04:46Hey, hey, hey.
00:04:52Ah, un tamal, por favor.
00:04:54Ah, sÃ, sÃ.
00:04:57Hola.
00:04:58Hey, hey.
00:04:59gew لكن img arame.
00:05:00Tag Language.
00:05:01Caramel.
00:05:02Hola, Caramel.
00:05:08I remember, yeah, when I were like it all night.
00:05:10Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:05:11Katie!
00:05:12Hey!
00:05:14There you are!
00:05:17I want you to meet my pata, Jeff Carlos.
00:05:22Buenos dias.
00:05:23Hola, I'm Dylan's twin.
00:05:25Twin.
00:05:27In culinary school, Carlos was like the brother I never had.
00:05:31After, we stopped battling over whether Peru or Mexico have the better food.
00:05:35Hey, it's still an ongoing battle.
00:05:38We'll have to check out his restaurant opening in a few months.
00:05:41It's actually close to where we live in Michigan.
00:05:44And I still need a sous chef, so if you're up for it, I'd love to have you on board.
00:05:48Yeah, couldn't recommend her more highly.
00:05:50Yeah, Lucy's given me so many hit recipes, I can see why.
00:05:54Caribbean cuisine is unbelievable.
00:05:56May I?
00:05:58Yep.
00:06:02We couldn't have better timing.
00:06:05Carlos just made friends with an archaeologist.
00:06:07Carlos makes friends everywhere.
00:06:10And, um, you won't believe this, but he just invited me and my guests to a behind-the-scenes day in Machu Picchu.
00:06:18Ooh.
00:06:20We already have that planned, right, Dan?
00:06:22Ah, yes, I already have tickets for Thursday, and they were not easy to get either.
00:06:26Oh, but it's a backstage tour today for the ancient castle in the sky.
00:06:31I know you both don't like breaking up plans, but this could be a magical start to our trip.
00:06:36Tickets sell out months in advance. You need passport numbers, time circuit slots...
00:06:39Oh, don't worry about that. It's all covered.
00:06:41V.I.P.
00:06:42But we have to hurry, because the train leaves soon.
00:06:44What do you think, Mi amor?
00:06:46Please?
00:06:47Whatever you want to see.
00:06:50But, Capito, here we come.
00:06:52The house is closed, so we can go and drop off the luggage, and then meet at the station?
00:06:56Mm-hmm.
00:06:57Okay?
00:06:58Perfect.
00:06:59Eso, Daniel. Ready for an adventure?
00:07:10Hey.
00:07:11Hey.
00:07:14It was you, on the other side of that parade, wasn't it?
00:07:17It was.
00:07:18You know, there's a theory about the magic of Machu Picchu.
00:07:22What's that?
00:07:23Just like the site stayed hidden for centuries, every visit reveals a hidden secret.
00:07:30They say that connections made in Machu Picchu benefit from the same enduring dedication that helped build it.
00:07:37Sounds like a fairy tale.
00:07:39Lucy and Carlos are back there regaling old cooking school stories.
00:07:55He seems okay, I guess.
00:07:57Oh, please. He's better than okay. He's like pizza. Everyone likes him. I really like him.
00:08:01Told you it wouldn't be a third wheel.
00:08:03Is this a setup?
00:08:04What? No. No.
00:08:05You said Lucy had his family.
00:08:07Yeah, he's basically her brother.
00:08:09What?
00:08:10Relax, Katie. It is a setup, but not for you and Carlos.
00:08:16You're gonna propose?
00:08:17I knew it! My twin tuition is never wrong.
00:08:20I was going to propose on Thursday after asking her father, but now I guess I'll just have to wait.
00:08:25Well, there will be another Machu Picchu.
00:08:28Tell me about it.
00:08:29Dan, you have to.
00:08:30Katie, I can't. I haven't even met Lucy in his family yet.
00:08:33Tyler didn't ask for Dad's permission before proposing to me.
00:08:36Yeah, I'm not trying to be like Tyler. His whole movie theater proposal didn't exactly scream. I put a lot of thought into this.
00:08:42That's fair.
00:08:43But not me. I've been planning this for a long time now. I wanted my 360 camera to capture the moment so she could show her family. An intimate setting with panoramic views of the sunset. I had it all planned.
00:08:53Your changing plan's not exactly our strong suit, but we can still do all that.
00:08:58Lucy always talks about an American wedding, but wants a Peruvian engagement party. I even booked an Andean restaurant for the end of our trip.
00:09:03So we partied tonight!
00:09:05I wanted it to be a surprise for everyone. And now the moment I spent months planning has officially been hijacked by someone who looks and smells like a cologne ad.
00:09:12Carlos does smell good.
00:09:17Viera's dinner up here, right?
00:09:19Hey, hey. Relax. We're different, but we're the same. When it comes to having plans and wanting to stick to them.
00:09:26This can still be perfect. We just have to push it forward.
00:09:29You found your soulmates. Just tell me what you need me to do and I will make your Machu Picchu proposal happen.
00:09:38Really?
00:09:42Okay, let's do this.
00:09:44Oh, and I'll show you how to use the camera.
00:09:46Guys, did you know that these buildings were built without any mortar? The granite was cut and fit perfectly. They were made for each other.
00:09:55Sounds familiar.
00:09:56I've been coming here all my life and it never gets old.
00:10:01Yeah, I know. Beautiful. When did they discover it?
00:10:05Depends on what you can see they're discovering. It was a known secret in Peru, but when the archaeologists came looking for gold, just the whole world found out.
00:10:14Did they find it?
00:10:15Gold?
00:10:16Yeah.
00:10:17No, but what they found is priceless.
00:10:20So...
00:10:24Tyler couldn't come with you to Peru?
00:10:26No, that ended a few months ago.
00:10:28I really like Tyler. Turns out a few others really like Tyler, too.
00:10:31Oh, I'm sorry. Your brother never keeps me in the loop.
00:10:34I always wondered why it was so hard for him to plan anything, but when you're doing it for multiple relationships at the same time.
00:10:40Well, he's a fool. You just need to find your person.
00:10:45Hey.
00:10:46Hey.
00:10:47Tour starts in 28th in Catrell.
00:10:48Hopefully I'll acclimate by then.
00:10:50Are you okay?
00:10:51I'm fighting.
00:10:57You'll be fine.
00:10:58You'll be fine.
00:10:59There's this energy up here. Can you feel it? That might just be the altitude sickness.
00:11:09Feeling queasy, honey?
00:11:11No.
00:11:12You look kind of pale.
00:11:14We're pretty high up. Almost 8,000 feet.
00:11:18I'm good.
00:11:20I'm good.
00:11:21Okay. Let's find you some coca tea. It helps with altitude sickness.
00:11:27Let's go.
00:11:29What about that photo you wanted?
00:11:31I'm fine.
00:11:32But the plan.
00:11:34He'll be fine. T will fix him.
00:11:41Let's sneak away and see what kind of secrets get revealed.
00:11:46I don't want to be late for the tour.
00:11:48It's just a quick peek.
00:11:49Who knows what magic we'll uncover.
00:11:52Something up there is calling me.
00:11:54Do you have altitude sickness?
00:11:56I can't help it.
00:11:59Um, I just, I don't like messing with an itinerary.
00:12:02Come on.
00:12:03Live a little.
00:12:09Ow!
00:12:10Wait!
00:12:13Hey!
00:12:16Live a little.
00:12:17Cool.
00:12:18The temple of the condor.
00:12:19Yeah.
00:12:20It represents the connection between Pachamama.
00:12:21Mother Earth.
00:12:22And the heavens.
00:12:23See it, right?
00:12:24Those rocks laid out like outstretched wings.
00:12:25That's the condor.
00:12:26It's your first time in Peru?
00:12:27Yeah.
00:12:28Yeah.
00:12:29But it's been on the list for forever.
00:12:30Hmm.
00:12:31Yeah.
00:12:32I went straight from college to teaching.
00:12:33So I've mostly just seen a bunch of schools in Michigan.
00:12:35Oh.
00:12:36That's not too far from Chicago.
00:12:37Yeah.
00:12:38What do you teach?
00:12:39Um...
00:12:40Oh, wait, let me guess.
00:12:41Chemistry.
00:12:42No.
00:12:43No.
00:12:44Home economics.
00:12:45Sewing, cooking, practical stuff.
00:12:46Oh, you're gonna love Peru.
00:12:47The traditional, modern cuisine, it's all fabulous.
00:12:49Well, it's nice to know I'm not the only one here for the food.
00:12:51Yes.
00:12:52Yes, the food.
00:12:53Always the food.
00:12:54I'm trying to taste everything I haven't tried cause once my restaurant opens I won't

00:20:59Oh, everyone's having such a good time.
00:21:03It's going to be such a memorable night.
00:21:06I don't think that's a good idea.
00:21:08I know, but sometimes it feels good to be bad.
00:21:10Dan, the altitude is playing tricks on you. Cusco is higher than Machu Picchu.
00:21:14No, it's perfect. Her whole family's in there.
00:21:17You said you wanted something intimate.
00:21:18And I know her dad's going to come around once he hears the proposal speech I planned.
00:21:22Caesar? I think he seems like a tough cookie.
00:21:24Oh, wait. I forgot it. Um, it had something to do with apples. You are the apple of my eye.
00:21:31No, wait. Um, the apple doesn't fall far from- No, uh, wait. I got it. Um, can you get the whole thing on camera?
00:21:39Yeah, yeah. I just need some fresh air first.
00:21:41Don't take too long, okay? You and the ring are the only thing that's stopping this proposal from finally happening.
00:21:46I'm right behind you, bro. Give me some skin.
00:21:49Yeah.
00:21:55He'll thank me later.
00:22:17Suits you.
00:22:18Yeah.
00:22:19You think so?
00:22:20Definitely.
00:22:21May I?
00:22:26Oh.
00:22:27There we go.
00:22:29There.

00:22:41Cancha salada.
00:22:46And?
00:22:47Flip.
00:22:48We're next to our local specialty back home, too.
00:22:51Sure.
00:22:53I didn't, um, I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to you last night.
00:22:57Get luck.
00:22:59I really did enjoy dancing with you.
00:23:01Yeah.
00:23:02I think you enjoy dancing with everyone.
00:23:07Anyways, I'm glad I ran into you. Gives me a chance to say goodbye.
00:23:11I'm off to, uh, Huacachina in about an hour.
00:23:13There's this chef who's famous for a local dish, Cuy.
00:23:16Sounds delicious.
00:23:17Well, you should come.
00:23:18I mean, come try it.
00:23:19Huacachina is one of the most remarkable towns in Peru.
00:23:21I don't know.
00:23:22Maybe you could learn a recipe or two to take back to your class?
00:23:26Yeah, I don't know if that's a good idea.
00:23:27I'm here with my brother in Luciana.
00:23:29Yeah, no, no. Of course.
00:23:30I, um, I hope you have a great time.
00:23:35I really did enjoy meeting you, Katie.
00:23:37Me too.
00:23:38I mean, me too.
00:23:40I get it.
00:23:41Good luck with your restaurant.
00:23:43Thanks.
00:23:44Ciao.
00:23:45Drink this. It'll make you feel better.
00:24:10What is this? Fist juice?
00:24:11It's tiger milk.
00:24:12Luciana wants you to have it.
00:24:13It's basically ceviche juice.
00:24:14You've got an amazing girlfriend.
00:24:15You know that, right?
00:24:16She deserves the most wonderful proposal in history.
00:24:20Something brave.
00:24:21Something bold.
00:24:23The ring.
00:24:24You have the ring.
00:24:25I lost it, but you have the ring.
00:24:28Not some haphazard, informal movie theater proposal.
00:24:30Doesn't matter that the leather seats recline.
00:24:31No one wants to get engaged in a mad name.
00:24:32We're going to plan something incredible for Luciana.
00:24:34We've just got to come up with the most amazing, dreamy, unforgettable,
00:24:37proposal of all time.
00:24:38I had the most amazing, dreamy, unforgettable proposal of all time planned for Machu Picchu.
00:24:55Yeah, I know, but now we've got to come up with a new plan.
00:25:00We should have to find a venue that is as romantic as an ancient lost city at sunset.
00:25:05That I need to see to believe.
00:25:07Well, then let's go.
00:25:09Come on, you've only looked at places on your computer.
00:25:11Maria told me some of her favorite things.
00:25:13We can find the perfect proposal place in real life.
00:25:15I can't leave Cusco right now.
00:25:17I have to put in a lot more face time with Caesar.
00:25:19I hope that he forgets that I tried to do the worm last night.
00:25:21You did the worm?
00:25:23Even worse.
00:25:24Tried.
00:25:25But you should go and hatch me a new proposal plan or report back.
00:25:28Well, I don't want to go by myself.
00:25:30Ask Carlos.
00:25:32No, Carlos is off to Huacachina to do his food thing.
00:25:36You love food.
00:25:37And Huacachina is like a cool little desert oasis.
00:25:40It looks super romantic.
00:25:41Yo, you said this wasn't a set up.
00:25:43As in it could be the perfect proposal place.
00:25:45I just don't have time to go look myself.
00:25:47Look, we don't have much time to make this engagement happen.
00:25:50And I really want to make it happen here in Peru.
00:25:53Please.
00:25:54I think he's leaving soon.
00:25:56That's fine.
00:25:57You haven't even unpacked.
00:25:58I want you to be my eyes and ears out there.
00:26:00Okay?
00:26:03Okay.
00:26:04Okay.
00:26:05I will find you options and send back photos.
00:26:07Perfecto.
00:26:13Carlos!
00:26:18Carlos!
00:26:19Hi.
00:26:20Katie!
00:26:21Hi!
00:26:22It's a cool truck.
00:26:23You taking it on the road?
00:26:24I am.
00:26:25Yeah.
00:26:28Listen.
00:26:29I was thinking about what you said.
00:26:30Maybe I could take a day trip to find some new recipes for my class.
00:26:34Uh-huh.
00:26:36Okay.
00:26:37After you.
00:26:40Gracias.
00:26:41De nada.
00:26:43You good?
00:26:45Oh, by the way, change of plans.
00:26:47We're not going to go to Huacachina.
00:26:48We're going to go to Pisac instead.
00:26:50I met the shaman who said that Pisac is the spiritual center of Peru.
00:26:53Something inside me said we had to go and I had to listen.
00:26:56Huh.
00:26:57Yeah, I usually try not to listen to the voices.
00:27:00Doesn't matter.
00:27:01I was really just tagging along to try the coui dish.
00:27:03Anyway.
00:27:04The guinea pig?
00:27:06You want to go just to eat guinea pig?
00:27:10Yes.
00:27:12I mean, they have guinea pig in Pisac.
00:27:14Oh.
00:27:15Plus, it's beautiful.
00:27:16Very picturesque.
00:27:18Lots of sights to see.
00:27:19Okay, okay, but I want to stop and take pictures.
00:27:23All right, perfecto.
00:27:24Let's go.
00:27:46So many beautiful colors.
00:27:47Did you know that Peru is considered to be the birthplace of the rainbow?
00:27:52How could they know that?
00:27:54Rainbows are a series of refractions and reflections that have been happening forever.
00:27:58Okay, Teach.
00:28:01Where to next?
00:28:04We should split up.
00:28:06We can cover more ground and I don't want to slow you down.
00:28:09I'll hit the streets and you can take the market.
00:28:12It's a good plan, I guess.
00:28:14We'll both pick something tasty to try and we'll meet up at the ruins.
00:28:19Yes, Chef.
00:28:22Hey.
00:28:41I want to see you.
00:28:42I want to go.
00:28:43I don't know.
00:28:44I want to see you.
00:28:45I want to see you in the 90s.
00:28:46Okay.
00:28:47You can see that.
00:28:48And we'll see you in the 90s.
00:28:49In the 90s.
00:28:50It's a little bit.
00:28:51You can see you in the 90s.
00:28:53Here you can see you in the 90s.
00:28:54You can see you in the 90s.
00:28:55Yeah.
00:28:56Let's see.
00:28:57You can see you in the 90s.
00:28:58Yes, sir.
00:28:59That's a little bit more.
00:29:00More spicy.
00:29:01Please?
00:29:02There it is.
00:29:03All the 80s.
00:29:04Yes.
00:29:05All the 80s.
00:29:08Thank you for me.
00:29:09Good morning, ma'am.
00:29:10¿Dónde está Rainbow Mountain?
00:29:19Hey, sis.
00:29:20Oh, hey.
00:29:22Uh, not to rush, but I'm in the middle of a grilling with Lucy's sisters.
00:29:26Nice, where are they grilling?
00:29:27They're grilling me, but luckily I already have a sister, so I got all the right answers.
00:29:31Yeah, you do.
00:29:33And she has found the spot, Rainbow Mountain.
00:29:37It's a few hours from Cusco, and then a three-hour hike up.
00:29:41Sounds far. Time's tight.
00:29:42Yeah, which is why you and Luciana need to meet me there.
00:29:45I don't need to scout it ahead of time. I know there is no better place to propose.
00:29:51Peru is also the birthplace of the rainbow.
00:29:54How is that even possible to know? It's a series of reflections and reflections.
00:29:57Yeah, I know, but it's still the perfect plan.
00:30:00Okay, so I'm in Cusco, and you're in Rocachina, so how is this going to work?
00:30:06Actually, I'm in PSAC.
00:30:08Carlos changes his mind faster than the weather here. I could try and catch a local bus tomorrow.
00:30:12No, that'll take a whole day. We don't have time like that. Just ask Carlos to come along and he can drive.
00:30:16I can't guarantee I won't end up in Uruguay on some kind of mystic mission instead.
00:30:21Well, just try to keep him reined in. Okay, I'll get Lucy to text you.
00:30:24Oh, I gotta go. I'm being summoned. See you soon.
00:30:27Okay, bye.
00:30:31Katie!
00:30:31Yeah?
00:30:32Hey!
00:30:32I thought that was you.
00:30:34You look like you're having fun.
00:30:35I just tasted the most amazing thing, and I had to know how it was made.
00:30:38Okay.
00:30:38Come, they're about to show me.
00:30:40Oh, um...
00:30:41Okay, so...
00:30:45This wonderful couple, Pablo and Claudia, I'm your neighbor Katie.
00:30:49Hola.
00:30:50Mucho gusto.
00:30:50Mucho gusto.
00:30:51They are stewards of this remarkable 200-year-old oven, and they're about to teach us how to make empanadas.
00:30:58Oh, empanadas?
00:30:59SÃ.
00:31:00Amamos de empanadas, eso, no?
00:31:01SÃ.
00:31:02Okay, listo.
00:31:02Una vez frÃa la masa, la estiramos y la cortamos en cÃrculos.
00:31:07Okay.
00:31:08Luego le doblamos y torcemos los bordes.
00:31:18Have you done this before?
00:31:19It's kind of like a pierogi.
00:31:21Perfecto.
00:31:21SÃ.
00:31:22Let me go.
00:31:23Let me go.
00:31:24Let me go.
00:31:25Let me go.
00:31:26Oh!
00:31:32Deliciouso!
00:31:33Deliciouso, yeah.
00:31:34Deliciouso, yeah.
00:31:35DeliciousÃsimo.
00:31:36DeliciousÃsimo.
00:31:37DeliciousÃsimo.
00:31:38Mmm.
00:31:39Mmm.
00:31:40That's spicy.
00:31:41The spicier, the better.
00:31:42Mmm.
00:31:43My turn.
00:31:44Okay.
00:31:45What do you got?
00:31:46Kiwicha.
00:31:47Traditional.
00:31:48High in protein.
00:31:49You can fry it, bake it, pop it.
00:31:50Kind of like oatmeal's more boring cousin.
00:31:52I love rolled oats.
00:31:53Okay.
00:31:54I was thinking, you're kind of on like this cuisine quest.
00:31:57Oh, I like that.
00:31:58And it definitely can't end with oatmeal.
00:32:00It can?
00:32:01No.
00:32:02No.
00:32:03No.
00:32:04No.
00:32:05No.
00:32:06No.
00:32:07No.
00:32:08No.
00:32:09No.
00:32:10No.
00:32:11No.
00:32:12No.
00:32:13No.
00:32:14No.
00:32:15No.
00:32:16No.
00:32:17No.
00:32:18There is such a variety of terrain in Peru.
00:32:20So many microclimates with different crops.
00:32:22Like, say, Rainbow Mountain.
00:32:28I've heard of that place.
00:32:30I don't think much food grows up there.
00:32:32High altitude, yes.
00:32:34But could be fresh yuca or maca.
00:32:36It's a bit of a trek.
00:32:37You'd leave first thing in the morning.
00:32:39It's a long way to go.
00:32:42In the middle of nowhere for maybe nothing.
00:32:45Come on, Carlos.
00:32:47You never know unless you try.
00:32:49You want to go on a road trip in Peru with me.
00:32:53And Dan and Lucy.
00:32:55So, spur of the moment of you.
00:32:57Carlos, live a little.
00:33:00Okay.
00:33:02For my cuisine quest.
00:33:04For your cuisine quest.
00:33:06Stop.
00:33:07This is what it's all about.
00:33:11Empanadas?
00:33:12No.
00:33:13Sharing a meal.
00:33:15Oh.
00:33:16Because at the end of the day, we're not going to remember the food we ate, but who we ate it with.
00:33:21It's true.
00:33:22You can see why they call it the sacred valley.
00:33:31It certainly is special.
00:33:33Mm.
00:33:34I don't see a rainbow and this is not a mountain.
00:33:39It's the coordinates Lucy gave me.
00:33:40This isn't part of the plan.
00:33:41It's about the journey, not the destination.
00:33:45Mm.
00:33:46Are those alpacas?
00:33:47Hola, amigos.
00:33:48Hey, hey.
00:33:49We have a pretty packed schedule if we want to make it up Rainbow Mountain.
00:33:52I don't see a rainbow and this is not a mountain.
00:33:56It's the coordinates Lucy gave me.
00:33:58This isn't part of the plan.
00:33:59It's about the journey, not the destination.
00:34:02Mm.
00:34:03Are those alpacas?
00:34:04Hola, amigos.
00:34:05Hey, hey.
00:34:06We have a pretty packed schedule if we want to make it up Rainbow Mountain today.
00:34:07Pit stops aren't exactly accounted for in my timetable.
00:34:08Oh, it's just a quick one, I promise.
00:34:09I grew up with Flores and I haven't seen her since she started this alpaca farm.
00:34:24No problemo.
00:34:25He reminds me of Chef Eric in second year.
00:34:28Oh, yeah, when he convinced me he had two like an alpaca and you convinced him it was a compliment.
00:34:38What are you thinking?
00:34:39I'm thinking if I make a big deal about getting to Rainbow Mountain by sunset, she's gonna know what's up.
00:34:43Maybe I should just help Carlos my plan and he can help.
00:34:46He's too unpredictable.
00:34:48You never know what he might say or do that could ruin the surprise.
00:34:51You're probably right.
00:34:52Let's just stick to the plan.
00:34:54Okay.
00:34:58Katie, Flores has Indian weavers on site. We should go take a look and see what they're making.
00:35:09I'm not sure how much time we have for shopping.
00:35:11Not for shopping, for teaching. Carlos told me that you want some ideas to bring back to your class.
00:35:16Right, yeah, yeah.
00:35:18This is an incredible place you have, Flores.
00:35:21Thank you. There was something about this land.
00:35:24Well, I couldn't explain it, but I could feel it.
00:35:28We're gonna quickly check out the textiles.
00:35:31Yeah, all the colors of the rainbow.
00:35:33Hey, did you know that Peru considers itself the birthplace of the rainbow?
00:35:37You don't say.
00:35:39Yeah, yeah, Katie told me.
00:35:40Oh.
00:35:41Carlos wants to meet the farmers, so we will link back up in a few.
00:35:45Great. Then we need to hit the road.
00:35:47Come on.
00:35:48Help.
00:35:49Hola.
00:35:50Hola.
00:35:51Hola.
00:35:52Alpaca wool's perfect for clothing here because it's soft and durable.
00:36:00Check out how vivid they are on the new photo app.
00:36:03Wow.
00:36:04How do you get these colors?
00:36:07We get our colors with plants.
00:36:10Ah.
00:36:11The red and pink ones come from Coutinho Bucks.
00:36:17I knew I liked blue furries.
00:36:19Yeah.
00:36:20Wow.
00:36:21Thank you very much.
00:36:29It's beautiful.
00:36:30Can I show you?
00:36:32Can I show you?
00:36:33It's okay.
00:36:34Oh.
00:36:35Ah.
00:36:36Oh.
00:36:37Oh.
00:36:38Oh.
00:36:39Oh.
00:36:41Oh.
00:36:42Oh.
00:36:43Oh.
00:36:44Oh.
00:36:45Oh.
00:36:46Oh.
00:36:47Oh.
00:36:48Uh.
00:36:49It's strapping me in there.
00:36:51Mm-hmm.
00:36:53Oh.
00:36:54Oh.
00:36:55Oh.
00:36:56Oh.
00:36:57Oh.
00:36:58Oh.
00:36:59Oh.
00:37:00Oh.
00:37:01Oh, wow.
00:37:06What do you think?
00:37:09I think it will look great in a photo on top of Rainbow Mountain.
00:37:12It's a wheel. It's going to be beautiful.
00:37:20Okay, I've got this figured out. You got the ring?
00:37:22Oh, yeah. It's happening.
00:37:28What's wrong with your neck?
00:37:29My neck? Nothing.
00:37:32Hey!
00:37:33Carlos is talking with our head farmer.
00:37:36Yeah, better be careful or he'll be moving in soon.
00:37:40Having a full-time chef is okay with me.
00:37:45I think you're allergic to your new poncho.
00:37:49Really?
00:37:50Yeah.
00:37:51Maybe it's just the dry weather.
00:37:52Maybe it's the alpaca wall.
00:37:55Damn, you were as red as one of those bugs and now you're making me itchy.
00:37:58Oh, twin transference.
00:37:59It's fine.
00:38:00It's fine.
00:38:01I'm just going to keep my arms sitting under the cape.
00:38:04I want to wear this for the...
00:38:05Hey, you have to try this.
00:38:10Fresh alpaca milk.
00:38:12Tastes a little fibrous.
00:38:17Thank you, but I can't do a lot of dairy.
00:38:20Even I haven't tried alpaca milk.
00:38:22You're so brave, Carlos.
00:38:24Dan.
00:38:27Sure, I'll give it a go.
00:38:28Oh, maybe not.
00:38:34You're just going to have the whole thing?
00:38:36Okay.
00:38:37Oh, Dan.
00:38:38Dan.
00:38:38Oh.
00:38:42Yum.
00:38:44Oh, buddy, you got the nutrients to conquer any mountain now.
00:38:47Thank you, Flores.
00:38:52I'm so happy we've got to see you.
00:38:54Con gusto.
00:38:55And I finally got to meet Dan.
00:38:57He's as wonderful as you said.
00:39:00And you too, Katie.
00:39:01Oh, thank you.
00:39:02And thank you for the textiles' designs.
00:39:04My class is going to be warm and stylish.
00:39:06The Beruvian way.
00:39:07Milk was a bad choice.
00:39:17Yeah.
00:39:23It's, uh, probably best for your brother if we stay here tonight.
00:39:26Oh, yeah.
00:39:27Yeah.
00:39:28The wool allergy is new, but he should have known better about the dairy.
00:39:31His rash will settle, as always, his stomach.
00:39:34By the morning, you think?
00:39:35We could wake up early and do a sunrise hike.
00:39:37Let's hope.
00:39:38I always wanted to go up Rainbow Mountain.
00:39:41So, Flores has two guest rooms made up for each of you.
00:39:45Buenas noches, Lucy.
00:39:46Buenas noches.
00:39:47Gracias, Lucy.
00:39:51Is it just me, or does the earth seem bigger down here?
00:39:54Definitely have the vastness.
00:39:58I bet the stars are bright way out here.
00:40:02Far from the city.
00:40:05Whole new batch of them, too, you know, Southern Hemisphere.
00:40:07Maybe later we could come out here when it gets dark and...
00:40:11Uh-oh.
00:40:15I might tuck into that guest room early.
00:40:18Sounds nice.
00:40:20Yeah.
00:40:20We'll be back before noon.
00:40:29I've added a couple of stops, so we might be a little bit later than that.
00:40:32Great.
00:40:33Oh, Dan, I wish you could hike with us.
00:40:36Me too, Lucy.
00:40:37Just better for me to stay.
00:40:39Close to facilities right now.
00:40:41I don't want you missing out on Rainbow Mountain because of me.
00:40:44Hmm.
00:40:44Katie, you not coming?
00:40:45No, I'm going to stick with Dan.
00:40:46You guys have a blast, though.
00:40:48Are you sure, Dan?
00:40:49Yes.
00:40:52Take lots of pictures.
00:40:55Okay.
00:41:01We're running out of time.
00:41:02Being separated from Lucy makes me feel like just being with her is the most important thing.
00:41:21Maybe I don't have to do a big proposal.
00:41:23Dan, you are always selling yourself short and playing it safe.
00:41:26But a proposal requires risk.
00:41:29This is your chance to show how much Luciana means to you by going over the top for her.
00:41:33How do we do that now?
00:41:34We start by getting rid of Carlos.
00:41:36Easy there, Tony.
00:41:37We're planning an engagement, not a funeral.
00:41:39Uh, Machu Picchu, Waccachina, the apacamilk?
00:41:42Look, he is a liability.
00:41:44He has foiled every proposal plot we've come up with.
00:41:46Why don't you take him away to Ley Titicaca, and Lucy and I will go the opposite direction.
00:41:50I'm not going off with him alone.
00:41:52Why not?
00:41:53He's only a gorgeous chef with captivating eyes and a soulful spirit.
00:41:57Oh, wait.
00:41:59That's not going to work.
00:42:01Lucy thinks we're on a road trip altogether.
00:42:03How are we going to ditch Carlos without her thinking something's weird?
00:42:09What do you eat it?
00:42:10Some kind of Peruvian corn nut.
00:42:13Can I just water?
00:42:14Yeah.
00:42:16That's it.
00:42:19A corn nut?
00:42:20If we can't beat him, we join him.
00:42:24Carlos is traveling and trying local foods, right?
00:42:27Right?
00:42:28We just need to find a place that is beautiful enough to propose, but also offer some kind
00:42:32of culinary distraction for Carlos.
00:42:34Make them think it's all about Carlos's ingredients could be a good cover.
00:42:38Exactly.
00:42:39But it's got to be romantic, though.
00:42:40I'm not proposing over a bowl of soup.
00:42:42I found it.
00:42:44Chocolate?
00:42:45No, look at that place.
00:42:48I could see myself proposing there.
00:42:50But will Carlos fall for it?
00:42:52He will love the sudden change of plans.
00:42:55And if I have to, I'll tell him that chocolate is sacred or something.
00:42:59It's so beautiful.
00:43:01It will make Luciana forget all about Rainbow Mountain.
00:43:05That was the best day of my life.
00:43:07I wish you were there, Dan.
00:43:11Day's not over yet.
00:43:12It was incredible.
00:43:13I have never seen a view like that before, and I probably will never again.
00:43:16Well.
00:43:17Don't count no cacao, class.
00:43:19Oh, that's what we're doing here.
00:43:21Yeah, and we want to help you, Carlos.
00:43:22Take your cuisine quest to the next level.
00:43:24Some ingredient that will make your opening buzz, and everyone will have to come into
00:43:28your restaurant if they want to try it.
00:43:29I just, I, I mean, I can't.
00:43:35You guys are so great.
00:43:37You know, everything for me is just my cuisine quest.
00:43:39Yeah, I've designed our excursions around you discovering a secret Peruvian superfood.
00:43:44What an unexpected surprise.
00:43:46Yeah, this class is going to take us from me.
00:43:50To a bar.
00:43:51Are you coming?
00:43:59Yeah, um, that's just so thoughtful of you, Katie.
00:44:03Don't mention it.
00:44:04But, um, chocolate isn't exactly a secret ingredient.
00:44:09You're right.
00:44:10It's not about the chocolate itself, though, but the spiritual connection with it.
00:44:16Really?
00:44:17Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
00:44:18It's used in ceremonies.
00:44:19Get ready to tune in with those higher powers.
00:44:25Who knew chocolate making would be so exhausting?
00:44:34There's actually a trick to opening these.
00:44:36Yeah?
00:44:37Let me show you down.
00:44:39All right, so, take some leverage.
00:44:45Well done, Jeff Carlos.
00:44:46Oh, you got it, too.
00:44:49Oh, I got it, ma'am.
00:44:54Yeah, no problem.
00:44:56This doesn't look like chocolate.
00:44:58It doesn't taste like it either.
00:45:00Try it.
00:45:02Oh, yeah, that works.
00:45:05Told you I could do it.
00:45:06It tastes more like lychee or mango.
00:45:09It does.
00:45:10Because that's actually the fleshy fruit around the cocoa bean.
00:45:12May I?
00:45:13Mm-hmm.
00:45:13Cheers.
00:45:14The cocoa bean.
00:45:18I love my ring.
00:45:44Do you have the ring?
00:45:47It's okay. It's okay. It's here. It's here. It's here. Let me help. That looks heavy.
00:46:04Why don't you both go take a walk? I think I saw some macaws in the tree.
00:46:08Macaws? Yeah. Really? I love macaws. We'll be right back.
00:46:14Come here, Mar.
00:46:17Oh. Looks like there's still a lot of work to do. Let me help you.
00:46:24Okay. Last one. Last little bit.
00:46:33All right, let it settle. Okay, now we have to let them cool before we eat them.
00:46:39Oh. Okay. Oh, well. This way. No. To the fridge. Let me help you.
00:46:43Watching chocolate dry is almost as painful as paint.
00:47:05I just want to make sure I'm ready when they are.
00:47:07Mm-hmm.
00:47:11You that hungry?
00:47:12Oh, yeah.
00:47:13Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
00:47:20It's going to be at least two hours. I'm going to go for a walk if you want to come in.
00:47:25No, thank you.
00:47:32Is there a reason why you're still in here?
00:47:35No.
00:47:37Let's walk.
00:47:38Okay.
00:47:38So, does school start in a month?
00:47:48Yeah. Yeah, I'm just here till the end of the week, but I already feel like I'm behind on preparations.
00:47:54You and Dan sure love your plans.
00:47:56Oh, yes. Yes. Meal plans, travel plans, business plans, all the plans.
00:48:00Mm-hmm. That's why I'm a cook and not a baker. With baking, you have to have precise measurements. With cooking, you can just improvise.
00:48:07Oh. Did you always know you wanted to be a chef?
00:48:10Yeah. I mean, I did have a crisis of confidence in culinary school.
00:48:16I almost moved back to Mexico City, but Luciana held me down.
00:48:21What happened?
00:48:21She took care of me like family. So, I kind of just adopted her as my sister.
00:48:31She is very special.
00:48:33She is. She cares a lot about other people. Kind of like you.
00:48:39Like me?
00:48:40Yeah. I mean, look at all the effort you're putting into discovering new recipes for your class.
00:48:45And my super secret, super food cuisine quest, all for me. Someone you just met.
00:48:51At first, I wasn't sure, but now I, uh, I don't want this to end.
00:48:58Me neither.
00:49:01I, um, I got you something.
00:49:03What?
00:49:04It was in Pizak. It's nothing, really.
00:49:08Carlos.
00:49:09It's a handmade poncho.
00:49:11Oh, it's beautiful.
00:49:13The, uh, the blue kind of reminded me of you.
00:49:17That is so thoughtful.
00:49:19It'll come in handy once the temperature drops and we go deep into the valley.
00:49:22Right.
00:49:23Speaking of which, where are we going next?
00:49:26That salt we used, you said it was Peruvian?
00:49:29Yeah, I believe it's from, uh, Mata's salt mines.
00:49:32Oh, this. Salt mines.
00:49:36This looks amazing. That's where we're going next.
00:49:40What's with the poncho?
00:49:42Cold.
00:49:43And Carlos brought it for me.
00:49:45Aw, that's sweet of him.
00:49:48Come on, this could be your eat, pray, love.
00:49:50We already have the eating part down.
00:49:52Will you stay focused?
00:49:53We get the chocolate, we get to Salt Mountain, and you get engaged.
00:49:59What?
00:49:59I can't tell.
00:50:02You don't know which ones are ours?
00:50:03I do.
00:50:03I mean, I did, but now there's no system here.
00:50:06Katie, which one has the ring in it?
00:50:08I don't know.
00:50:08I can't tell which bars are ours.
00:50:09Does it matter?
00:50:11They're all pretty much the same.
00:50:13No, they're not the same.
00:50:14One of them has the...
00:50:15We need to find ours.
00:50:16The ones we made.
00:50:18We have to take what we poured.
00:50:20Settle down.
00:50:22Y'all really don't like to go with the flow, huh?
00:50:25Okay.
00:50:27Well, there's only one way to guarantee we take the right ones.
00:50:30You took all the chocolate bars?
00:50:57It was Carlos' idea.
00:51:00Oh, thank God.
00:51:20I got you.
00:51:21I got you.
00:51:23Wait, just one more latch.
00:51:24Okay.
00:51:27This hotel has the highest rating in the valley, and it has a pool.
00:51:33It's perfect.
00:51:34I love traveling with you guys.
00:51:36You always know the best places to go.
00:51:38First of dating a planner.
00:51:39Why don't we take it easy tonight and head to the Mara Salt Mines tomorrow?
00:51:43Great.
00:51:44Take it easy, or party all night.
00:51:49Oh, we haven't done that since school.
00:51:50Yeah, all nighters spend dancing instead of studying.
00:51:54Another life.
00:51:56It, it, it.
00:51:57Maybe.
00:51:59One more night?
00:52:01No.
00:52:03Let's do it.
00:52:04Let's dance like no one's watching.
00:52:05What are you talking about?
00:52:07The only dance you know is the Macarena.
00:52:08I love the Macarena.
00:52:12Oh, oh.
00:52:15Okay.
00:52:17Okay, okay.
00:52:18As entertaining as this is, I want to wander on Taitambo.
00:52:23Yeah, me too.
00:52:24So we will talk about it later when we come back.
00:52:27Wow.
00:52:29Look at this place.
00:52:33This pool.
00:52:34Ew.
00:52:36If it was up to me, we'd be sleeping on someone's couch.
00:52:39Was that your original plan?
00:52:41No plan is my kind of plan, Dan.
00:52:44What do you think?
00:52:46Bueno.
00:52:49I don't know.
00:52:51Things tend to work themselves out.
00:52:54What you got there?
00:52:55Oh, don't I have?
00:52:584K, 360 digital camera, projector.
00:53:01Sweet.
00:53:02Does it stream?
00:53:03Does it stream?
00:53:04It live streams.
00:53:07You're the man, Dan.
00:53:09Yeah, I'm going to set up a movie night out here.
00:53:13What about dancing the night away?
00:53:16Nah.
00:53:17Better to play it safe.
00:53:18And movie night is safe.
00:53:22And romantic.
00:53:25Actually, a lot of this trip has been really romantic.
00:53:31What do you mean?
00:53:32Don't get me wrong.
00:53:34Your sister spines have been great, but...
00:53:38Chocolate?
00:53:40Salt?
00:53:40Those aren't exactly secret superfoods.
00:53:47Well, why do you think she's here?
00:53:50I don't know.
00:53:52But I don't think it's because of my cuisine quest.
00:53:55Please.
00:54:04Here.
00:54:06Oh!
00:54:07Gracias.
00:54:08Salud.
00:54:09Salud.
00:54:09Salud.
00:54:10This is Chicha Morada.
00:54:12This reminds me of family.
00:54:13And on this trip, I feel like I have a new sister.
00:54:17I was wondering a sister.
00:54:19Dan is great, but it's not the same.
00:54:21I've always got room for another sister.
00:54:26So, Carlos seems to be quite a fan of yours.
00:54:31How do you mean?
00:54:33The looks, hidden smiles, the poncho.
00:54:37I've only ever seen Carlos to buy something for someone
00:54:40when he really likes them.
00:54:43I was cold. He gave it to me out of necessity, not affection.
00:54:47Could be both.
00:54:48No.
00:54:49He's a lone wolf.
00:54:51It was a surprise for me that he wanted to go on a group trip,
00:54:55but it didn't take me too long to know why.
00:55:02Can I be honest with you?
00:55:04Sure.
00:55:05The last time I thought I had my future planned out, I...
00:55:09Tyler's stuff had nothing to do with you.
00:55:15Hey, you are an amazing woman.
00:55:19And an amazing man will cherish that.
00:55:24You're gonna trust your heart again, Katie.
00:55:33Whoa!
00:55:34It's the third vegan restaurant I've seen here.
00:55:36Well, I'm gonna pop in and ask if they have...
00:55:40Kau Sarayan.
00:55:41Very nice, I'll wait for you.
00:55:42Very nice, I'll wait for you.
00:55:48So much for your twin tuition!
00:55:50Whoa!
00:55:51Where did you come from?
00:55:53He's onto us.
00:55:54Who is onto what?
00:55:55Carlos.
00:55:56He's off to the proposal.
00:55:58And if he knows, she knows.
00:55:59What do you mean?
00:56:00What did he say?
00:56:01He said he thought it was kind of weird
00:56:02that you were taking us all these romantic locations.
00:56:04Oh, that's ridiculous.
00:56:06Carlos doesn't think you're gonna propose.
00:56:07He thinks that...
00:56:08Ah!
00:56:09Noooo.
00:56:10What, what, what?
00:56:11It's worse.
00:56:12It is so much worse.
00:56:13You're freaking me out, what?
00:56:14Carlos doesn't think that you're gonna propose.
00:56:16He thinks that I am in love with him.
00:56:18Ugh.
00:56:19I have to find the rarest, most singular Peruvian secret ingredient
00:56:22of all time to convince Carlos that is the only reason we are on this trip.
00:56:26Katie!
00:56:27Twins off time!
00:56:28Make it quick.
00:56:29I saw you two today.
00:56:30You can't deny there's chemistry.
00:56:31Carlos has chemistry with everyone.
00:56:33Besides, this trip is not about me.
00:56:35It's about you and Lucia.
00:56:36I'm kidding you.
00:56:37No.
00:56:38I have to find a food that will change Carlos' mind before he changes the plans again.
00:56:42Take this.
00:56:44Oh, gosh.
00:56:45Lucy, hi.
00:56:50Cheers.
00:56:52What just happened?
00:57:00What's it?
00:57:02He's not gonna find a more rare food anywhere.
00:57:07Hey.
00:57:09Buenas noches.
00:57:10Hi.
00:57:11What did you get at the market?
00:57:12Oh, it was the best.
00:57:14Check it out.
00:57:19Sweet drop peppers.
00:57:20Nice.
00:57:21Kamu Kamu berries.
00:57:23Ooh.
00:57:25And to wash it all down,
00:57:26Aguahina.
00:57:27These are all high in vitamins and low on the radar.
00:57:31Mmm.
00:57:32Espectacular.
00:57:33You know that's why I'm here, right?
00:57:35To find you a secret superfood ingredient.
00:57:39It's what you keep telling me.
00:57:41And I have.
00:57:42Mmm.
00:57:43For tomorrow.
00:57:44What is it?
00:57:45What is it?
00:57:46You're gonna have to wait and see.
00:57:52Hey.
00:57:53Um.
00:57:54I was thinking of checking out what Dan and Luciana are up to.
00:57:56Maybe grab some dinner.
00:57:58Do you wanna come?
00:57:59Thank you, but I ate at the market.
00:58:02So that's a no.
00:58:03Yeah.
00:58:04I'm just gonna chill here.
00:58:05Have fun, though.
00:58:06Okay.
00:58:07Goodnight, Katie.
00:58:17Wow.
00:58:22Unattended candles.
00:58:24Really, Dan?
00:58:28Hey.
00:58:29Hi.
00:58:31I'm sorry.
00:58:32I thought you were going out for dinner.
00:58:33Dan set us all up.
00:58:35Don't let it go to waste.
00:58:36Just can't resist a little improv.
00:58:39I guess not.
00:58:41Sorry, I'll, uh...
00:58:44Leave you to it.
00:58:48You don't have to go.
00:58:51No.
00:58:52Um, you're right.
00:58:53I'm sorry.
00:58:54I figure that the best experiences you never see coming, so...
00:58:57I jump at every opportunity I get.
00:59:02Sometimes I...
00:59:04Overstep.
00:59:09Carlos?
00:59:13I could actually use someone to explain the movie.
00:59:18Seems I missed the start, and now...
00:59:22I'm completely lost.
00:59:23Well...
00:59:26Lucy used to make me watch this every year.
00:59:33It's called...
00:59:35Seventh Heaven.
00:59:36Huh.
00:59:37It's a classic.
00:59:42He's idealistic.
00:59:43She's mistreated.
00:59:46They're total opposites.
00:59:49But they're forced through rough times.
00:59:51And as they grow closer together, their...
00:59:53Differences turn into...
00:59:55Hmm.
00:59:56Let me guess.
00:59:57Love?
01:00:01Oh.
01:00:03I mean, when that works, you can feel it.
01:00:06Yeah.
01:00:07Sometimes you don't have to say anything to...
01:00:09Say everything.
01:00:10Peruvian purple popcorn.
01:00:11Say it out ten times.
01:00:12Peruvian purple popcorn.
01:00:13Peruvian purple popcorn.
01:00:14Peruvian purple popcorn.
01:00:15Peruvian purple popcorn.
01:00:16It's very good, but I was drinking.
01:00:17When was the last time you were in love like that?
01:00:18Um...
01:00:19Maybe never.
01:00:20Maybe I was blinded by a good looks and charm.
01:00:26I fell for the fairy tale.
01:00:28What about you?
01:00:29When was the last time you were in love like that?
01:00:35Um, maybe never.
01:00:40Maybe I was blinded by a good looks and charm.
01:00:43I fell for the fairy tale.
01:00:48What about you?
01:00:50It's been a long time.
01:00:53Plus, I've had tunnel vision only seeing a restaurant at the end of it.
01:00:58It's good to be in love with your work.
01:01:00Yeah, but there's so much more to life than that.
01:01:02And relationships require work and time.
01:01:07And I want to be with someone where I'm compelled to put in that level of effort every single day.
01:01:16In my last relationship, there wasn't much effort from him.
01:01:20Which only made me put in more effort and then I am oversharing.
01:01:24Oh no, I love it. I love your vulnerability.
01:01:28It's inspiring.
01:01:30You've inspired me quite a bit this trip.
01:01:34I planned something.
01:01:36Yeah.
01:01:37I hired us a guide to take us through the modest salt lake.
01:01:42I think Dan and Lucy might want to go off on their own tomorrow.
01:01:45I don't mind it just being me and you.
01:02:01Sorry.
01:02:03It's Dan.
01:02:05Lucy wants to dance. They're going to Casa Bambita.
01:02:09Oh, amazing. Let's go.
01:02:11Are you coming?
01:02:13I want to see how this ends.
01:02:16Okay.
01:02:17Enjoy the show.
01:02:19Good night, Carlos.
01:02:20Good night, Jamie.
01:02:21What happened to you?
01:02:23They almost killed me last night, Katie.
01:02:25The dancing. The strobe lights. The house music. I'm broken. Exhausted. Who stays up until 6am?
01:02:29Pull yourself together, Lieutenant Dan. You need to find your second wind by the time we get tomorrow's.
01:02:33Buenos dias, amigos, aventureros.
01:02:35Morning, Carlos.
01:02:36I brought us all breakfast from the market.
01:02:37Great. I'm starving.
01:02:38I'm starving.
01:02:39Oh.
01:02:40Oh.
01:02:41Oh.
01:02:42Oh.
01:02:43Oh.
01:02:44Oh.
01:02:45Oh.
01:02:46Oh.
01:02:47Oh.
01:02:48Oh.
01:02:49Oh.
01:02:50Oh.
01:02:51Oh.
01:02:52Oh.
01:02:53Oh.
01:02:54Oh.
01:02:55Oh.
01:02:56Oh.
01:02:57Oh.
01:02:58Oh.
01:02:59Oh.
01:03:00Oh.
01:03:01Oh.
01:03:02Oh.
01:03:03Oh.
01:03:04Breakfast quinoa drink for you.
01:03:05Delicious.
01:03:06And chicken and rice soup, aguadito, for you.
01:03:09Oh, like my grandpa used to make me.
01:03:11And chirimoya. Looks like an artichoke, but tastes like a candied apple.
01:03:16Well.
01:03:17Now we've got our breakfast, so we should heat her out.
01:03:22To maras.
01:03:23Yes.
01:03:24Maras.
01:03:29You need to do a way better job at keeping it preoccupied today.
01:03:33This is my last chance at making this proposal hot.
01:03:35I know, don't worry.
01:03:36Send me a text and I will start recording when you're 10 minutes from one knee.
01:03:39How am I going to do that?
01:03:41You're getting on that knee even if it means you never bend it again.
01:03:44We cannot mess this up.
01:03:53This is a long path.
01:03:55He'll be worth it.
01:03:57Okay.
01:03:58Hey, make it happen.
01:04:02Make sure you have it right now.
01:04:03Standing by.
01:04:05So, where's this guide?
01:04:09Oh, Luis, he's meeting us at the lower pools.
01:04:12Okay.
01:04:13I will follow you.
01:04:15Okay.
01:04:24You'll never guess what it tastes like.
01:04:26Is it salt?
01:04:27Yeah.
01:04:28There's a salt water spring feeding all this.
01:04:31Then we wait for evaporate the water and then we scrape for salt.
01:04:36Luis, your guide.
01:04:38Carlos.
01:04:39This is my friend Katie.
01:04:40Hello, Katie.
01:04:41Hello, Carlos.
01:04:42So, welcome.
01:04:43Oh, there's got to be service here somewhere.
01:04:47I don't know.
01:04:48Is it okay?
01:04:49Did you hear that?
01:05:01What?
01:05:02Luis's family have been harvesting these pools for decades.
01:05:05They're beautiful.
01:05:09They're beautiful.
01:05:10They are.
01:05:14Did you get what you're looking for, Teach?
01:05:16Luis has been telling me all about salt's healing properties.
01:05:18Detoxification, trace minerals.
01:05:21Random question.
01:05:22Um...
01:05:23Do you know how to make a, uh...
01:05:24Como se dice?
01:05:25A pachamanca?
01:05:27Yeah.
01:05:27I do.
01:05:28What is that?
01:05:29A traditional method of cooking in far pits with hot rocks.
01:05:33That could be something you could bring back to Chicago.
01:05:35A new cooking method.
01:05:37You could test it out with my super secret ingredient.
01:05:39Uh-huh.
01:05:41Tonight.
01:05:42Sunset.
01:05:43Overlooking the valley.
01:05:45If we build it, they will come.
01:05:48By they, you mean...
01:05:50Dan and Lucy?
01:05:52Wherever they are.
01:05:54Funny.
01:05:56I'm not good.
01:06:05Ah.
01:06:06Hey.
01:06:07Hey.
01:06:13Nice.
01:06:22We're not really here for a secret superfood.
01:06:24Yes, we are.
01:06:26We are.
01:06:28Whatever it is, you can tell me.
01:06:29I have a food for you, really.
01:06:32Okay.
01:06:33But there's something else going on.
01:06:36Let me in on it.
01:06:38I can help.
01:06:43If I tell you, you have to promise to keep it a secret.
01:06:47I promise.
01:07:06What happened?
01:07:07I was ready.
01:07:08I never got your text.
01:07:09There wasn't any service.
01:07:11Maybe we should just call it.
01:07:12I'm on my last leg.
01:07:13Literally.
01:07:14No.
01:07:15I've got this plan.
01:07:16I saved the best for last.
01:07:17I think we could just find some special place in Cusco.
01:07:19More special than this?
01:07:20You can propose overlooking the entire sacred valley.
01:07:21It is stunning.
01:07:22I'm not going to let you down.
01:07:23Okay.
01:07:24Okay.
01:07:25I'm not going to let you down.
01:07:26Okay.
01:07:27Oh.
01:07:28Oh.
01:07:29Just a little closer.
01:07:30Oh.
01:07:31Oh!
01:07:32I've got to go back to my house.
01:07:33You can propose overlooking the entire sacred valley.
01:07:37It is stunning.
01:07:39I'm not going to let you down.
01:07:40down. It's a little closer. Oh, I can't watch. We've got lots of yuca potato. We don't need
01:08:04cactus. It's my secret ingredient. She's got this.
01:08:10I'm going to go a little further. I got you.
01:08:18Okay, yeah. Okay. Okay.
01:08:40So, we don't use the fire. We use the rocks?
01:08:46Hot rocks. Then the food. Then more hot rocks. But chamanca means cooking in modern air.
01:08:53I wonder when your cactus goes in. My cactus doesn't go in.
01:09:02What do you mean? You risked your life for this rare delicacy.
01:09:05Delicacy? Who told you that?
01:09:09Luis?
01:09:09Luis? Technically, it's not the cactus that's the special ingredient. But what's inside
01:09:17of it?
01:09:18You break it open. And you find...
01:09:23Ta-da.
01:09:26Bugs?
01:09:27Delicious bugs.
01:09:28After what you told me at the salt mines, you didn't need to do all of this.
01:09:34I know I didn't, but I wanted to. You never know what might inspire your next menu.
01:09:39Now you have to try them, Carlos.
01:09:43He's right.
01:09:44All right, let's go.
01:09:45Ah!
01:10:05Ah!
01:10:05did i do that right good job yeah so guys it's going to take another 40 45 minutes as well
01:10:33see you down uh dan if you and lucy want to take a stroll we can keep an eye on dinner
01:10:46i saw a spot we can see the whole valley from oh yeah let's go okay bye
01:10:54i think he's gonna do it oh he better we have already been to all of peru's most
01:11:03lovey-dovey places well all those changing plans are adjusted to
01:11:08you're more spontaneous than you think well i am learning from the best
01:11:13it makes sense now why the last few days felt so romantic
01:11:19maybe that's not the only reason
01:11:22you're right
01:11:26there's an energy here
01:11:30i sounded like lucy
01:11:35is everyone okay i don't know i don't know

01:11:50is she all right you told him you were the one who said he was a liability
01:12:02this isn't my fault
01:12:03if i hadn't listened to you i would have been engaged by now
01:12:06engaged at a restaurant dan
01:12:08if i hadn't taken the ring that night you would have proposed to a pisco sour
01:12:11what do you mean you took the ring
01:12:15you took the ring
01:12:17her whole family was there that would have been the perfect proposal
01:12:19please it would have been a mess
01:12:21couldn't be more of a mess than this
01:12:22it would have saved me from alpaca allergies
01:12:24eating bugs and an nightmare road trip with you
01:12:26okay guys why don't you
01:12:27you should be thanking me
01:12:28thanking you for what

01:14:39ajà rocoto
01:14:40It's not going to be exactly the same.
01:14:42Just the essential ingredients, and then we can improvise.
01:14:45Maybe it's going to be better.
01:14:48That's the beauty of cooking. You can be spontaneous.
01:14:52This is not going to be a perfect Kinchikapi, but that's okay.
01:14:55It's going to be perfectly imperfect.
01:15:02You're right.
01:15:04Carlos was right.
01:15:07I'll be right back.
01:15:10Yeah.
01:15:12Chicas de hoy.
01:15:14Hola.
01:15:16They don't have to be pink.
01:15:17I'll take them all.
01:15:18Um, quiero todas estas.
01:15:40It's all set up. You just need to get them in here.
01:15:57Oh, jeez.
01:15:59Oh, jeez.
01:16:02Dan, hi.
01:16:03Hey.
01:16:04How's Lucy?
01:16:05She's good.
01:16:06It's just a sprain, but she'll have to wear a boot for a few weeks.
01:16:09But she'll be all healed by the time her and Carlos open up this new restaurant.
01:16:12So she's taking the sous chef position. That's great.
01:16:14It is. She'll be busy.
01:16:16There definitely won't be an engagement redo anytime soon.
01:16:18I'm sorry I pushed you so far. I just wanted your proposal to be perfect.
01:16:25So did I.
01:16:25But it doesn't need to be. You don't need a special place or the right ring or even a sappy speech. All you need is each other.
01:16:33Dan, you knew that and now so do I.
01:16:35You're enough exactly the way you are.
01:16:38Thanks. I'll keep that in mind for a trip next year, I guess.
01:16:42I can't even begin to think of another plan right now.
01:16:44I already did.
01:16:46No, I'm not trying to do another big proposal plan again.
01:16:50This is different. I promise.
01:16:52Just the essential ingredients.
01:16:55When you get to the house, Maria knows what to do and so will you.
01:16:58How?
01:16:58To intuition.
01:17:05How's the ceviche?
01:17:22I feel awful about how things went down.
01:17:26Close.
01:17:29I need to explain myself.
01:17:31So you didn't invite your brother to avoid being stuck with me?
01:17:35No, I did.
01:17:36But it wasn't that I didn't want to be stuck with you. It was that I did.
01:17:40I don't get what you mean, Katie. Either you did or you didn't.
01:17:45I wanted...
01:17:46I want to be with you.
01:17:49And that scares me.
01:17:51So I tried to distance myself.
01:17:54The last time I gave my heart away, I got burned.
01:17:56It made me think that I couldn't trust my feelings.
01:18:01But being here with you is changing that.
01:18:06You have a way of moving through the world that I do not understand.
01:18:10You mess up every plan I make, but what ends up happening is somehow better than I ever could have imagined.
01:18:17I think you are incredible.
01:18:18And before you take off on your next adventure, know that I will never forget this trip.
01:18:28I'm really sorry.
01:18:29Don't you want to know what my secret ingredient is?
01:18:40The secret I've discovered is that there isn't one.
01:18:45There is no special berry or herb or grain.
01:18:49Because cooking isn't about how one component works on its own, but what happens when it meets another.
01:18:55Take that ceviche separately. It's just fish and lime juice and spices.
01:19:02And when they get together, chemistry happens.
01:19:04Something better, something new is created because they are together.
01:19:09Are we still talking about cooking?
01:19:12Please tell me we're not still talking about cooking.
01:19:13First, I have to go to Machu Picchu.
01:19:28Machu Picchu with you!
01:19:29Okay. Oh, wait, wait, I gotta pick up.
01:19:32Con permiso.
01:19:33Mucha gracias, huh?
01:19:36Slow down, Mom.
01:19:41What is it?
01:19:43I know nothing.
01:19:45I know nothing.
01:19:48She's crazy.
01:19:49She's crazy.
01:20:13But you're alive.
01:20:23I know nothing.
01:20:23I know nothing.
01:20:23I know nothing.
01:20:24I know nothing.
01:20:27You're crazy.
01:20:30Mm-hmm.
01:20:33No.
01:20:37I know nothing.
01:21:07You see, you are the sun that warms my heart and the earth that grounds me.
01:21:13Here in Peru, where the past and present meet, I want to be with you not only in this moment, but in all moments of my life.
01:21:25Luciana, will you be my wife?
01:21:30Yes!
01:21:30My work here is done.
01:21:39This is incredible.
01:21:44You are incredible.
01:21:47Lucy and I are getting married.
01:22:15Congratulations.
01:22:17Congratulations.
01:22:18Congratulations.
01:22:19Congratulations.
01:22:26Congratulations.
01:22:27Thank you, Daddy.
01:22:29Hello, Sr. Diaz.
01:22:31Come on, give me a hug.
01:22:33I'm going to be on those three.
01:22:35Let's go.
01:22:36Let's go.
01:22:37Let's go.
01:22:38Let's go.
01:22:39Let's go.
01:22:40Let's go.
01:22:41Let's go.
01:22:42Let's go.
01:22:43Let's go.
01:23:04Will you dance with me?
01:23:05Yes, Chef.
01:23:06Yo.
01:23:11Yes, Chef.
01:23:12Yes.
01:23:21Equipment.
01:23:24Yes.
01:23:26Over the...
01:23:27...
01:23:58We're right back.
