00:00:19Ow my god.
00:00:23They should thank me for a taste testing for you.
00:00:26Last night you brought over that pasta!
00:00:28I just like that three-year-old bra that was just crispy and really rigid.
00:00:32Come here.
00:00:36Come here.
00:00:37What the hell is going on here?
00:00:39Who the fuck is she?
00:00:41Are you blind?
00:00:42She's my girlfriend.
00:00:43So what the hell was I for the past three years?
00:00:45You're just a chef that smells like garlic.
00:00:48I mean, men eat your food, but hey, dream of my love.
00:00:54I mean, when was the last time you ever been bothered with me?
00:00:57You shut your mouth, you tramp!
00:00:59Hey, that's enough.
00:01:02Evelyn, I've never liked you, okay?
00:01:05Oh my god!
00:01:06See you on the kitchen grease?
00:01:08Literally just makes me want to throw up right now.
00:01:10Your restaurant would have tanked ages ago without my menu.
00:01:14Yeah, but you're useless now.
00:01:16Because we are a perfect man.
00:01:23Oh my god, he's still here.
00:01:24Evelyn, you are fired.
00:01:25It's just, I never want to see you again.
00:01:28I'm the one firing you two.
00:01:32Assholes!
00:01:33Oh my god!
00:01:35You bitch!
00:01:37Assholes!
00:01:37Yes!
00:01:50Every penny I had, I spent on his stupid restaurant.
00:01:54I didn't even kept my chef E-identity secret to spare his fragile ego.
00:01:59And for what?
00:02:01To be treated like garbage?
00:02:03Okay.
00:02:04You are not spending another second on that jerk!
00:02:09Get up!
00:02:10Get up!
00:02:11Come on!
00:02:12Turn around.
00:02:13The world is your voice.
00:02:16Stop pouting!
00:02:17It's time to play!
00:02:18I've been searching for you for three years.
00:02:22Where are you?
00:02:24I've been searching for you for three years.
00:02:25Where are you?
00:02:26I've been searching for you for three years.
00:02:36Where are you?
00:02:38I've been searching for you for three years.
00:02:56The winner is...
00:02:58Sheffy!
00:03:06Sheffy's in the lounge.
00:03:07She actually cured your anorexia!
00:03:09Sophie?
00:03:10Keila proposed!
00:03:12No, I think I'm going to keep my chef E-identity secret for now.
00:03:15I'll still help him with his restaurant, just quietly.
00:03:26She's just behind this door.
00:03:35I think my drink's been spiked.
00:03:54Oh!
00:03:57Hey!
00:03:59You good?
00:04:01You must be a hero.
00:04:07You must be a hero.
00:04:11You must be a hero.
00:04:15What have you written on me?
00:04:17What have you written on me?
00:04:19No more.
00:04:21You must join yourselves in the room I prepared just for us.
00:04:37Are you ready to come?
00:04:41Yes, thanks.
00:04:42You must be a hero.
00:04:42A prime minister 분�odal.
00:04:43You know, let's enjoy yourselves in the room I prepared just for us.
00:04:50Do we really get that wild last night?
00:05:20That asshole!
00:05:32Oh Caleb, today is not your lucky day.
00:05:37Rot in hell.
00:05:50Keep the meeting.
00:05:54I'll make it in half an hour.
00:05:58Stay back.
00:06:07What the hell did you do to my car?
00:06:08Oh, thank God.
00:06:09He doesn't recognize me.
00:06:12This is your car?
00:06:16I am so sorry.
00:06:19Um, wrong car.
00:06:21Yeah, classic mix-up.
00:06:23I'll pay for the damages.
00:06:24Just let me know how much it is.
00:06:27That'll be 50 grand for a repaint.
00:06:29Cash or check?
00:06:3050 grand?
00:06:31Why don't you just mug me instead?
00:06:33I don't have time for this.
00:06:35The cops can deal with this mess.
00:06:36Sound good?
00:06:37Cops!
00:06:38No!
00:06:39Don't call the cops!
00:06:40Don't call the cops!
00:06:41Please don't call the cops!
00:06:42Please don't call the cops!
00:06:43Hey!
00:06:44What the hell are you doing?
00:06:47Go ahead.
00:06:48Call the cops.
00:06:49I'd love for them to see this.
00:06:51Oh, was that a threat?
00:06:52No, no, no, no.
00:06:53I'm just...
00:06:54negotiating?
00:06:55I'm in a hurry.
00:06:58Take this off me, and I'll let you go.
00:07:00And I don't have to pay?
00:07:02Before I change my mind.
00:07:03Okay, okay, okay.
00:07:04Come on.
00:07:11I might not have the key.
00:07:20Seriously?
00:07:21We're not gonna take these off first?
00:07:22No time.
00:07:23Just follow my lead, and do not act weird.
00:07:28Ah, Mr. Carter.
00:07:31We are thrilled at the thought of you buying us out, huh?
00:07:38And, um, who might this be?
00:07:41This is my personal assistant.
00:07:43Oh.
00:07:44Hi.
00:07:45Hi.
00:07:50We're doing a little corporate bonding thing.
00:07:53Okay.
00:07:56Bonding, huh?
00:08:01That is, uh, that's quite the progressive bonding exercise, isn't it?
00:08:20Mr. Carter, I paid top dollar for Chef E's exclusive recipe.
00:08:31I think that would be worth an extra ten points on the offer, wouldn't it?
00:08:35Chef E?
00:08:36That's right.
00:08:37Carter's been chasing Chef E forever.
00:08:40This sale is locked.
00:08:41It's not Chef E's recipe.
00:08:44What?
00:08:45I'm sorry.
00:08:46Mr. Carter, they're pulling a fast one on you.
00:08:49This is the exact recipe Chef E made at the Culinary Championship.
00:08:53It's identical.
00:08:54Yeah, Chef E would never use truffle oil on this dish.
00:09:07It kills the fish's natural umami.
00:09:09And FYI, Chef E doesn't write anything down.
00:09:12All the recipes live in her head.
00:09:14If they're only in her head, how would you know?
00:09:18So what's the deal with you and Chef E?
00:09:25I am Chef E, dummy.
00:09:28Just a fan.
00:09:29God, lucky enough to chat about recipes with her once.
00:09:32Boss!
00:09:33It's just a lock, why the entire circus?
00:09:44I heard you're in handcuffs, so I brought a lawyer.
00:09:48And a boxman.
00:09:50And his mentor.
00:09:51Just in case.
00:09:52What about that guy?
00:09:54Oh, I'm just here for the spectacle.
00:09:59Don't mind me.
00:10:04I will take a dose.
00:10:15Okay.
00:10:16You know, I saved you money back there.
00:10:19That'll be my compensation.
00:10:21Fine.
00:10:22Later.
00:10:27Boss, who's she?
00:10:28Who's she?
00:10:36Cheers, guys.
00:10:37Cheers.
00:10:38Cheers.
00:10:39Cheers.
00:10:41Oh, God.
00:10:43Evelyn, I've already fired you.
00:10:45What are you doing here?
00:10:46Everything that worked about this restaurant was my creation.
00:10:49I'm taking my 50% share.
00:10:51Cheers.
00:10:53Oh.
00:10:55As if you were there.
00:10:58You only became head chef thanks to Caleb.
00:11:01You were nothing.
00:11:02I kept my chef-y identity secret to protect your fragile ego, which clearly was wasted on you.
00:11:08You're chef-y.
00:11:09Okay, so you're pretending to be chef-y when the real product sheet, Madeline, is right here.
00:11:21Seriously?
00:11:22Hilarious.
00:11:23Oh, my God.
00:11:24You're funny.
00:11:25Funny.
00:11:26How did Evelyn, Kayla breaks up with you and you go into a full psychotic break?
00:11:29I mean, behold this face, people.
00:11:30Scarce kiss would burn him into sterility.
00:11:31I mean, who would get excited about this package, right?
00:11:32We should beat it now, because it's my garbage can and I'm wanting to take trash like people,
00:11:33so...
00:11:34Okay, now about this.
00:11:35Let's not let this psycho spoil our day.
00:11:36What?
00:11:37Madeline, darling.
00:11:38Mm-hmm.
00:11:39Will you marry me?
00:11:40Oh, my God.
00:11:41I wasn't expecting this.
00:11:42Yeah, I do.
00:11:43Oh.
00:11:44Oh.
00:11:45Oh.
00:11:46Oh.
00:11:47Oh.
00:11:48Oh.
00:11:49Oh.
00:11:50Oh.
00:11:51Oh.
00:11:52Oh.
00:11:53Oh.
00:11:54Oh.
00:11:55Oh.
00:11:56Oh.
00:11:57Oh.
00:11:58Oh.
00:11:59Oh.
00:12:00Oh.
00:12:01Oh.
00:12:02Oh.
00:12:03Oh.
00:12:04Oh.
00:12:05Oh.
00:12:06Oh.
00:12:07Oh.
00:12:08Oh.
00:12:09See, Evelyn?
00:12:10Caleb clearly loves me, so he can stop obsessing over him.
00:12:14What?
00:12:15Congratulations.
00:12:16You snagged an absolute gem.
00:12:18Mmm.
00:12:19You know, my new guy is hotter, richer, and way more impressive.
00:12:24Where it counts.
00:12:25What are you implying?
00:12:28Evelyn, did you really invent a boyfriend to make yourself feel better?
00:12:31Right.
00:12:32I mean, if he's real...
00:12:33Where is it?
00:12:34Show us.
00:12:35Oh my God.
00:12:36Fantastic. Where do I magically whip up a boyfriend? From my rib?
00:12:41This is sad. Caleb rejects her so she comes up with this pathetic story.
00:12:47You know what, Evelyn, just, just go. I mean, at this point you're just humiliating yourself.
00:12:52I mean, I'm sorry for you.
00:12:54Why don't you use that cash for some, um, therapy?
00:13:02He's right there.
00:13:06Mr. Carter, what's Carter Group's strategy this year?
00:13:09We are acquiring 10 premium restaurants to establish.
00:13:30Bombshell, Carter Group's CEO has a public kiss with an unknown woman?
00:13:35That's literally the most powerful man in the city. There's zero chance he's dating Evelyn.
00:13:43You better have a good reason for this.
00:13:45I'm so sorry. Please just help me out.
00:13:47Mr. Carter, what's your relationship with this woman?
00:13:49Look at this woman.
00:13:52What's your friend going on?
00:13:53Ha, ha, ha.
00:13:54She's my fiancée.
00:13:56Oh.
00:13:57Come here, man. Come here. Come here. Come here.
00:14:02Come here.
00:14:03This is as you're doing.
00:14:06Any other questions?
00:14:08OK, but you could've said girlfriend. I mean, why go full fiancé?
00:14:13full fiance. Girlfriend. A new CEO caught in a public scandal. What do you think that does to
00:14:18my company's value? Well, people love a young couple in love. I mean, that kind of press could
00:14:25give you a bump. Your people, maybe. Mine, not so forgiving. That could wipe out 300 million in
00:14:31market value. Can you cover that? What? Exactly. Calling you my fiance is the only way to make
00:14:37this little kiss look like a PR move instead of chaos. Okay, so what do we do? Tell them all the
00:14:43true? Sure. That week we can clear it all up. If you're ready to write a 300 million
00:14:48dollar check. There's gotta be another option. There is. There is? Marry me. Contract marriage,
00:15:09divorce after one year. Your bedroom is down the hall, on the left.
00:15:13Fine. You corporate vulture. Being my wife comes with specific duties. And what are these
00:15:21duties?
00:15:21All of this is for me? Naturally. Consider it an investment in making sure you look the
00:15:41part of the part of my wife. For your everyday spending. No limit on this card.
00:15:49No, I can't accept that. This is a business deal. Between equals.
00:15:54Consider it a wedding gift. Fine. I can insist.
00:16:04Trollss or bisous.
00:16:05Awful harvest.
00:16:06Nice.
00:16:07All right.
00:16:08Mist.
00:16:08Okay.
00:16:08I can trust the mostotine.
00:16:09Miss fine with ustte.
00:16:09Ne little something to move comes with cellula.
00:16:11The point about this can be I could not stop the baptist.
00:16:14equus ste hearing myев treatment habits.
00:16:14Oftentimes, we can't do this stuff. I've heard from my wife and I can't do it.
00:16:17I can't find my wife and I can hardly eat people.
00:16:21I can't, and I can't remember the прест.
00:16:22I can't take anythings out, but I can read it.
00:16:22I can't English either, I can see the part of my wife and I can't record myself in until
00:16:27this card.
00:16:28I can sounds very well.
00:16:28Last day is soじゃない.
00:16:30It's a cake can you bring it?
00:16:33Damn. This feels too real to be a dream.
00:16:44You're in the wrong room.
00:16:46Sorry. So sorry. Oh my god, I will leave. Right now.
00:16:53Geez, what is with the attitude? There's nothing I haven't seen before.
00:17:07What did you just say?
00:17:09Nothing. Nothing. Just sleep talking. Sweet dreams.
00:17:23I made too many mishaps last night. But what better apology from a culinary genius than my best.
00:17:41Hey, I made you breakfast.
00:17:43No thanks.
00:17:44What? You didn't even take a single bite. That's disrespectful to the food and the chef.
00:17:49This isn't about respect. I have struggled with severe anorexia, which is why I have someone who handles my breakfast.
00:17:56Anorexia?
00:17:57Oh, is that so hard to believe?
00:18:00I'm so sorry. I just had no idea.
00:18:04Everything in your life just seems so perfect and put together.
00:18:10I guess everyone has their struggles, huh?
00:18:12Man, even someone together like me has their problems. Now if you-
00:18:15Bitches?
00:18:16If you don't move, I will be late.
00:18:19Please just take one bite. Just one bite and then I'll let you go. I promise.
00:18:24Please.
00:18:33See, that's not-
00:18:34Well? What do you think?
00:18:45Not bad.
00:18:56Didn't you say you were running late?
00:18:57I can make time for breakfast.
00:18:58Well then. Bon appetit.
00:19:01Where are you going? Didn't you say you were going to join me for breakfast?
00:19:07No, it's my first day on the new job. Can't be late. But-
00:19:12Here's the address. Come by sometime.
00:19:15Wait, isn't this the restaurant I just acquired?
00:19:21This can't be happening. Leo married somebody?
00:19:27The bitch from that night. I'm going to see Leo right now.
00:19:32Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here. Come here.
00:19:43Okay, so. I have the hottest gossip. The boss's new wife is visiting today.
00:19:49No way. I wonder what she looks like the news clip only showing her profiles. It's totally unclear. Right?
00:19:53What kind of dumb ass comment is that? The boss's wife is gorgeous. She's the boss's wife.
00:19:59Just be on your toes and you treat her like royalty.
00:20:11No need for the formality. I'm just the head chef.
00:20:14What are you doing in the dining room? You are breaking company protocol.
00:20:17Get to work ASAP. Boom!
00:20:35I'm looking for Leo. This must be her.
00:20:39Welcome, Mrs. Carter.
00:20:42They think I'm Leo's wife.
00:20:44Don't make a fuss. Just call me Jennifer.
00:20:48Jennifer. Absolutely, of course.
00:20:50Was that the new head chef who just walked by?
00:20:52Indeed. Funny how life works out that way, isn't it?
00:20:55You're both similar in age, yet worlds apart in status.
00:20:59Well, you're the boss's new wife and she's stuck in the kitchen cooking.
00:21:04Oh, no comparison whatsoever.
00:21:06What's up?
00:21:07Jennifer.
00:21:08Right?
00:21:09Mr. Carter isn't in today, but will ensure top-notch service.
00:21:23Absolutely. You and the boss are totally made for each other.
00:21:26Of course. I'm the only woman suitable to be Mrs. Carter.
00:21:29I'm so happy that Leo finally settled down.
00:21:42Do you think his wife will appreciate these gifts?
00:21:47Perhaps two more villas, too.
00:21:51Mr. Carter never mentioned Evelyn.
00:21:53What if she is simply after his money?
00:21:59You're right.
00:22:00Perhaps I should get to know her personally.
00:22:13Oh, my goodness. Are you okay?
00:22:18I haven't eaten. May I have some soup?
00:22:20Yeah, of course. Yeah, come with me.
00:22:27Order anything you'd like. It's on me.
00:22:30Thank you. You're so kind.
00:22:32All happy.
00:22:34What do you think you're doing?
00:22:36This is a fine dining restaurant.
00:22:38You can't bring in homeless people. Get her out now.
00:22:41You can't do this. She needs our help.
00:22:43That's her problem. This is a restaurant, not a charity.
00:22:47What kind of standard is this for treating guests?
00:22:48Every human being deserves the right to a proper meal.
00:22:52Oh, please save your bleeding heart.
00:22:55Look at the new chef.
00:22:57Thinking she owns the place?
00:22:59Bringing in street people?
00:23:01Our clientele are people of good standing.
00:23:03Having this vagabond around will just hurt our reputation.
00:23:06Did you hear that? Hurry up and make her leave.
00:23:07Her word is law around here.
00:23:10Hold on. Who's the boss's wife here?
00:23:13Uh, excuse me? Has age ruined your eyes and ears?
00:23:16This is our boss's wife, Mrs. Carter.
00:23:19Oh, Jennifer.
00:23:20Why are they referring to her as the boss's wife?
00:23:25I thought Evelyn held that title.
00:23:31Okay, just because you're the boss's wife, that doesn't mean you get to humiliate people.
00:23:35We're all equals here.
00:23:36Equality.
00:23:39As the boss's wife, I am superior to the grubby chef in you dirty street trash.
00:23:49Oh, did you hear that, Evelyn? Or do you want to join this piece of trash out in the street?
00:23:53So these are the employees at my grandson's restaurant? Their behavior is disgraceful.
00:24:02What? Grandma's at the restaurant?
00:24:05Yes. Mrs. Carter somehow discovered Miss Taylor's new position as head chef and, well, she wanted to see for herself.
00:24:12Evelyn, please don't slip up in front of my grandma.
00:24:16This woman just wants some food. She won't disturb anyone.
00:24:19Her mere presence spreads the stench of poverty. Who would like to dine with her around?
00:24:25Remove this beggar at once or consider yourself terminated.
00:24:29Barbage chef and homeless trash, you two deserve each other.
00:24:33Okay, this is outrageous. With staff like you, this restaurant is doomed.
00:24:37I'll make sure headquarters knows exactly what happened here.
00:24:40Report us? You insignificant nothing. You're fired.
00:24:46You're the one that needs to be fired.
00:24:50Fire me?
00:24:54It's rich coming from someone who looks like they sleep in a cardboard box.
00:24:58Maybe she bummed her head and thought she was the CEO's granny.
00:25:02Oh, poor thing.
00:25:04You seriously don't know who Jennifer is to the owner?
00:25:08And you're trying to fire her? That's comedy.
00:25:10Her wiring is clearly fried.
00:25:13Broke and insane. Now, that's hilarious.
00:25:15That's enough. I'm taking you somewhere decent.
00:25:18Awesome. Hit the streets together. Maybe you'll gather up enough change for a hot dog.
00:25:23Yum yum yum. They should all leave.
00:25:25You stubborn hag. Get them out of here now.
00:25:29Ah!
00:25:33Dare you touch me? The audacity!
00:25:36You lunatic! You just assaulted him!
00:25:39Forget leaving. You're going straight to prison.
00:25:41Oh, don't twist this. You attacked us first.
00:25:43Precisely. You people are a complete embarrassment to this company.
00:25:47You needed a reality check.
00:25:54What the hell, you psycho bitch!
00:25:57Stop!
00:25:58Leo, this psycho grandma is terrorizing your restaurant. Call the police now.
00:26:15Yes, that's right. Street trash has no place in this restaurant.
00:26:19Does everyone here feel the same way?
00:26:20Oh, Mr. Carter, don't you worry. I'll remove these people at once.
00:26:23What? Shut up!
00:26:25There will be zero discrimination in any Carter establishment.
00:26:29You are done here. Evelyn is in charge from now on.
00:26:33Hold on. Leo owns this place?
00:26:36Mr. Carter, I was just following Mrs. Carter's words, you know.
00:26:40She's my wife. Wow, that is news to me.
00:26:45Get this straight, everyone.
00:26:48Evelyn is my wife.
00:26:50She, she, she, she's your wife?
00:26:55Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:26:56Hold up. You lied to us?
00:26:59I didn't say anything. You jumped to conclusion.
00:27:02Yeah, but you never denied it. Not even once.
00:27:04We are so bad, we just insulted the real Mrs. Carter.
00:27:08Everyone apologize to her. Now.
00:27:10We are so sorry. So sorry.
00:27:14Leo, you want me to apologize to street trash? That's humiliating!
00:27:18Throw her out. You are banned from this restaurant.
00:27:22Leo, you can't do this to me!
00:27:25Come on, let's go.
00:27:27Grandma, are you okay?
00:27:33Grandma?
00:27:34I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were Leo's grandmother.
00:27:44Evelyn, you really are a lovely young woman. And you suit Leo well.
00:27:51I'm gonna have Nick drive me home. Then I'm gonna grab a few things and I'm gonna stay at your place for a bit.
00:27:57Grandma, that's not, uh, that's not necessary.
00:28:04We're screwed. She's totally gonna find out about her big marriage.
00:28:08Get it together, Evelyn. We need to get home and get ready now.
00:28:11Ma'am, you should probably keep your seatbelt on.
00:28:22Are those two just playing house for my sake?
00:28:25Uh, Miss Carter, what would give you that idea?
00:28:28Their interactions seem hurst.
00:28:31Impossible. I mean, these two are head over heels for each other.
00:28:34Is that so?
00:28:36Absolutely. A hundred percent. I mean, they are amazing together. I mean, I have a front row seat.
00:28:42Well, I really like Evelyn. I really think that she's what Leo needs to find real happiness.
00:28:50Boss, for the love of God, don't you and Miss Taylor screw this up.
00:28:59Hurry! Grandma's almost here!
00:29:01She's knocking the bars in my bedroom.
00:29:05Oh my God! Could you please put something on?
00:29:15Great. Now it looks like a real couple's bedroom. After a tornado.
00:29:31So how did you two find each other?
00:29:39We met at a bar. At a restaurant.
00:29:42One of those bar-restaurant combos. You know?
00:29:48Oh, yes. And, um, how long have you been together?
00:29:54Three months?
00:29:55Half a year?
00:29:56Three months?
00:29:57Half a year?
00:30:01Your answers?
00:30:03What we mean is, we met six months ago, but we became a couple three months ago.
00:30:10Three months ago.
00:30:12Yeah. Actually, I've had a crush on her for a very long time.
00:30:24Evelyn fell asleep in my guest room, so I thought I'd return her to you.
00:30:28What's going on?
00:30:40New order. I fell asleep in the wrong bedroom.
00:30:44You make a habit of ending up in the wrong room, don't you?
00:30:47I know. I know. My fault.
00:30:49Sleep on the floor. Happy?
00:30:51I wondered if you wanted some warm milk before bed, but I'll let you be.
00:31:12Here's one.
00:31:14Don't move.
00:31:15You know your heart's racing.
00:31:36Grandma might pop in at any second. Sleeping separately would blow her cover immediately.
00:31:42Are you sure?
00:31:46Relax.
00:31:48Want to try anything?
00:31:50Yeah, I was worried about that.
00:31:58Got it?
00:31:59Got it.
00:32:15You like what you feel?
00:32:31I...
00:32:34What are you doing?
00:32:35Don't you want this?
00:32:37We hope.
00:32:38Have a moment.
00:32:39Have a moment.
00:32:41Evelyn.
00:32:43Evelyn.
00:32:45Evelyn.
00:32:47Evelyn.
00:32:48Evelyn.
00:33:02No, really shouldn't be Evelyn.
00:33:04Evelyn, wake up.
00:33:06I gotta go.
00:33:07I'm dead.
00:33:15Dear God, why would I dream something like that?
00:33:19Sorry. So sorry. I had a nightmare. A horrible one. I was...
00:33:23A nightmare with drool.
00:33:26Stop messing with me.
00:33:28Let's call it even for the slap.
00:33:30What were you dreaming about exactly? You nearly suffocated me.
00:33:34I dreamed you were stripping and tempting me.
00:33:37Not exactly conversation material.
00:33:39I was dreaming about an excellent cuisine.
00:33:46So not a nightmare.
00:33:48Unless you thought you were a vampire.
00:33:52I did that?
00:33:53That's really bad.
00:33:55Look, I have work later.
00:33:56How am I supposed to show up like this?
00:33:58I could give you a scarf.
00:33:59I don't wear scarves.
00:34:00What about some makeup? I have a really good concealer.
00:34:02I think that would be uncomfortable.
00:34:05You're impossible.
00:34:05You figured it out yourself.
00:34:07Are you sure about that?
00:34:09Fight me.
00:34:12Sure.
00:34:20Wait, wait, wait.
00:34:21I thought...
00:34:22I thought this was just a...
00:34:24business deal.
00:34:26Come on, don't you want this?
00:34:27I don't.
00:34:28Are you up?
00:34:40Breakfast is ready.
00:34:48What is wrong with me?
00:34:49Where are you going at this hour?
00:35:06Evelyn's still not home and it's getting late.
00:35:09I'm just going to pick her up.
00:35:11So when did you become so thoughtful?
00:35:13She's my wife?
00:35:16I should take care of her, right?
00:35:18Well, keep telling yourself that.
00:35:20But those heart eyes aren't fooling anyone.
00:35:25Am I actually in love with her?
00:35:27What the hell?
00:35:43Look at this.
00:35:45Oh, the untouchable new chef knows fear after all.
00:35:49Are you insane?
00:35:50You ruined me!
00:35:52I lost my job because of you.
00:35:55And now I can't get work anywhere.
00:35:58So, it is time for some payback.
00:36:00Don't you think?
00:36:01No, let me go.
00:36:03Please, help!
00:36:04Help!
00:36:05No one is coming for you in this hour.
00:36:07Just shut up.
00:36:11Pay!
00:36:11Pay!
00:36:13You got a death wish?
00:36:18No, stop!
00:36:24He's not worth it.
00:36:29You hurt your hand.
00:36:31Get anywhere near Evelyn again.
00:36:33I'll make sure you vanish for good.
00:36:36Come on.
00:36:37Let's get inside.
00:36:44It's nothing.
00:36:45I'm fine.
00:36:45No.
00:36:46Sit.
00:36:47Down.
00:36:48What?
00:36:57Nothing.
00:36:58You just look stunning right now.
00:37:04I'm so sorry.
00:37:06I'll be gentle.
00:37:09There.
00:37:10All the time.
00:37:10I want to end our arrangement.
00:37:20I want to end our arrangement.
00:37:29I want to end our arrangement.
00:37:34What was that then?
00:37:36Rich guy entertainment?
00:37:38Or...
00:37:38Goodbye.
00:37:41Neither.
00:37:41I can't keep this just as business anymore.
00:37:45I want more than a deal.
00:37:48I want you.
00:37:50You could give us a real shot.
00:37:52A fresh start.
00:37:54What do you say?
00:37:55If you are joking right now, I swear I will never forgive you.
00:38:02I don't joke about how I feel.
00:38:04Prove it.
00:38:04Prove it.
00:38:08Gladly.
00:38:20You should probably get that.
00:38:22It could be an emergency.
00:38:23This had better be life or death or I'm cancelling your Christmas bonus.
00:38:28Code red, boss.
00:38:29You somewhere private?
00:38:34Boss, the woman from the hotel that night is back in the picture.
00:38:39What's she want?
00:38:40She's pregnant.
00:38:43What?
00:38:44Wait, are you sure?
00:38:45100%.
00:38:46Keep this from Evelyn for now.
00:38:57Leo!
00:38:58My schedule's packed.
00:39:00Unless this is urgent, I'll have to ask you to leave.
00:39:02I really tried, sir.
00:39:10Ring any bells?
00:39:15You were saying you were the person that night?
00:39:19That's right.
00:39:21What do you want?
00:39:22Marry me, Leo.
00:39:24Absolutely not.
00:39:25How can you say that?
00:39:26I'm pregnant with your child.
00:39:30Look, you drugged me to trap me.
00:39:33What makes you think I can tolerate such manipulation?
00:39:35You wanted us to be together.
00:39:37Is that such a crime?
00:39:40Take this for your silence, right?
00:39:42And whatever happens next, I want a part of it.
00:39:45And stay out of my life forever.
00:39:47Nick, please.
00:39:49All right, Ms. Whit, out you go.
00:39:50Wait.
00:39:50There you go.
00:39:56Five million dollars?
00:39:57That's humiliating!
00:40:00I regret this, Leo.
00:40:02I am pregnant.
00:40:13From that first night with Leo.
00:40:15How's he gonna take this?
00:40:17Leo, hypothetically, if you had a one-night stand with someone, and you got her pregnant,
00:40:35how would you handle that?
00:40:36Has Evelyn found out about Jennifer?
00:40:40What's wrong?
00:40:41Nothing.
00:40:42I'm just asking.
00:40:44If that happened, I wouldn't choose to be involved.
00:40:47All right, the Carter family can't afford that kind of scandal.
00:40:51But, I would make sure they were well taken care of, financially.
00:40:55You've gone pale.
00:41:00Is everything okay?
00:41:02Yeah.
00:41:03Yeah, I'm fine.
00:41:04I'm just tired.
00:41:07I'm gonna go to bed.
00:41:09Are you so early?
00:41:10Evelyn, watch out!
00:41:26What can I get for you today, ma'am?
00:41:34Tell Evelyn she's cooking for me today.
00:41:37Sure.
00:41:40Chef?
00:41:43A guest is requesting that you prepare her meal yourself.
00:41:46Tell her that the chef burned her hand and she's off the line today.
00:41:49No, it's okay.
00:41:51I can do it.
00:41:56You again.
00:41:59Aw.
00:42:00Did you burn yourself?
00:42:02That's not your concern.
00:42:04So sorry.
00:42:13Guess you'll have to make me a new one.
00:42:17Service denied.
00:42:18Wow.
00:42:18Is this how you treat your customers?
00:42:21By abusing them?
00:42:31The taste is off.
00:42:32You didn't even try a single bite.
00:42:35Refuse me if you want.
00:42:35But I'll just call my reporter friends and I'm sure Leo would hate to see his restaurant in the headlines.
00:42:43Fine.
00:42:43Jesus.
00:42:48Can you even cook?
00:42:50This looks revolting.
00:42:57What is your problem?
00:43:00Clean it up and I'll go.
00:43:02What the hell?
00:43:11Evelyn, you owe me this.
00:43:14What's that supposed to mean?
00:43:17You don't know?
00:43:19I'm pregnant with Leo's baby.
00:43:21Excuse me?
00:43:24This is difficult to hear, but facts are facts.
00:43:30Stop trying to come between Leo and me with your pathetic lies!
00:43:35This is no lie.
00:43:38Leo gave me this check.
00:43:41He promised to take responsibility and make me his wife.
00:43:43You may hate me, but this child is innocent.
00:43:50As an orphan yourself, you should know how miserable it is to grow up without a father.
00:43:57Step aside.
00:43:58Will you?
00:44:02I need to think about this.
00:44:07Take your time.
00:44:09I'll be waiting.
00:44:13Oh, easy there.
00:44:23What happened to your aunt?
00:44:24Oh, I just, I burned it a little.
00:44:26No big deal.
00:44:28Evelyn, something is off with you lately.
00:44:31Seriously, what's going on?
00:44:33Whatever it is, I'm here.
00:44:35I'm pregnant.
00:44:38You're what?
00:44:41I'm pregnant.
00:44:42Wait, this isn't funny.
00:44:43Who exactly is the baby daddy here?
00:44:46Your ex?
00:44:48What if I told you it was you?
00:44:52Would you believe me?
00:44:54What?
00:44:55But we never even, how could that be?
00:44:58Do you remember that night?
00:44:59Um, you got pretty wasted.
00:45:01There's that woman at the bar.
00:45:04Has Jennifer been talking to you?
00:45:06Ignore her.
00:45:07I'll take care of it.
00:45:08So it was true.
00:45:09He had another night with her.
00:45:11I thought Jennifer was lying.
00:45:12How stupid I was.
00:45:15No, Jennifer didn't approach me.
00:45:17And this baby, honestly, I actually don't know who the father is.
00:45:22Do you even hear yourself right now?
00:45:23Where do you think you're going?
00:45:37I'm getting out of here.
00:45:38Look, stay.
00:45:40Please.
00:45:41If you're going to keep this baby, I'll step up.
00:45:44I'll be there for both of you.
00:45:46Leo, don't do this.
00:45:47This baby deserves better than this.
00:45:49Why do you insist on leaving?
00:45:52This child deserves to be loved as someone's one and only.
00:45:57Even if that means growing up without a father.
00:46:00A father, huh?
00:46:02Who is it?
00:46:03Caleb?
00:46:04Or is there somebody else you haven't told me about?
00:46:05No matter who this father is, you and I are done here.
00:46:09Leo, this was a business deal and it has expired.
00:46:15Sign the divorce papers.
00:46:17You have a child's father that much?
00:46:19Oh, I are.
00:46:21Yes.
00:46:23That's how it is?
00:46:26He's the love of my life.
00:46:27Why?
00:46:28Why?
00:46:29Why?
00:46:29Why?
00:46:30Why?
00:46:31Why?
00:46:32Why?
00:46:33Why?
00:46:47Ma'am, we have a major crisis.
00:46:50Evelyn and Leo are filing for divorce.
00:46:52What?
00:46:53I'm coming home right now.
00:46:58Oh, boss.
00:46:59Please don't fire me.
00:47:03So long, Leo.
00:47:09Miss Evelyn!
00:47:11Madam's been rushed to the hospital.
00:47:13She's had a heart attack.
00:47:14We need to go now.
00:47:15Come on.
00:47:23Well, you're all here.
00:47:26Have you been keeping something for me lately?
00:47:28No.
00:47:29Don't let your imagination run wild.
00:47:40Well, that's one worry off my chest.
00:47:44There's nothing I'd like more than to see you two together.
00:47:48We need to talk.
00:48:07What's left to discuss?
00:48:11Your baby with Jennifer?
00:48:12Wait, so you found out?
00:48:20Listen, I am sorry.
00:48:21I need to sleep.
00:48:27This pregnancy hoax needs to be perfect.
00:48:30Got it?
00:48:31Understood, Miss Jennifer.
00:48:39Evelyn, please take a seat.
00:48:41Let's check a few vitals here.
00:48:45Evelyn, your baby is going to do it just fine.
00:48:51Whatever happens, this baby's got to go.
00:49:07Sit down, please.
00:49:08I thought the doctor said we were finished.
00:49:10The doctor made a last-minute decision to give you a vitamin shot.
00:49:12It's good for the baby.
00:49:14But the doctor didn't say anything about an injection.
00:49:16Do you know better than medical professionals know?
00:49:19No.
00:49:20Sorry.
00:49:25One little prick, and this problem vanishes for good.
00:49:29You?
00:49:39Didn't I make myself clear?
00:49:41Stay away from Leah.
00:49:42You're completely psychotic.
00:49:44They'll lock you up for this.
00:49:46Jail?
00:49:47I'm not trying to kill you here.
00:49:48Just a little nap.
00:49:49And when you wake up, that unwanted spawn inside of you will be history.
00:49:53Leah will destroy you for this.
00:49:54Don't you dare say his name!
00:49:56Don't you dare say his name!
00:50:11Help!
00:50:12Stop!
00:50:12Help!
00:50:13Help!
00:50:14Anybody!
00:50:16Help!
00:50:17Stop fighting it.
00:50:18You have zero chances this time.
00:50:32Jennifer, you've got a death wish!
00:50:37Leo.
00:50:38Are you aware of what you're doing right now?
00:50:40Leo, every single thing I've done has been for our future.
00:50:43That's what left us to you.
00:50:45Call security.
00:50:46This one's getting a police escort.
00:50:47Leo, how can you be so heartless?
00:50:48I'm carrying your child.
00:50:50Oh, yeah?
00:50:51Jennifer, the lying has to stop sometime.
00:50:53That night, there was a you in my room.
00:50:55No.
00:50:56Freaking way!
00:50:57How did you find out?
00:50:58Game over, Jennifer.
00:51:00Get her to the police.
00:51:02Leo.
00:51:02Let's go.
00:51:03Come on.
00:51:03You can't do this!
00:51:04Ow.
00:51:04My brother will destroy you both!
00:51:11What's that?
00:51:12Jennifer deceives me.
00:51:14There was no baby with her.
00:51:15Nothing ever happened between us.
00:51:17That night, it was you all along.
00:51:21Right?
00:51:24So you were pregnant with my baby, aren't you?
00:51:34I never should have questioned you.
00:51:36You would have been right here with me the entire time.
00:51:39I'm sorry.
00:51:40You had to carry this burden by yourself.
00:51:43But this child, we're going to protect them.
00:51:47All right?
00:51:47Both of us.
00:51:50I'm hosting a gala.
00:51:51I want the world to know we're together!
00:51:54No more going solo.
00:51:57Ever.
00:51:57Ryan?
00:51:58I want the world to know we're together.
00:51:59Okay.
00:52:05Ryan?
00:52:06Leo is parading that cook around as his wife at the banquet.
00:52:10You're seriously okay with this?
00:52:12Jennifer, I literally just got you out of a cell.
00:52:14Can you not?
00:52:16Your Leo obsession needs to stop.
00:52:18Now.
00:52:19I'm not thinking of me.
00:52:20This is all for Monica.
00:52:22Let's not forget, Leo is engaged to Monica.
00:52:26Monica?
00:52:27I only joined this family after Monica had vanished.
00:52:29But you never stopped searching.
00:52:32If she comes back and Leo's hitched to someone else,
00:52:36everyone will mock her.
00:52:38You're damn straight.
00:52:40Nobody takes what's Monica's.
00:52:41Nobody!
00:52:42Bring up the whole rack.
00:52:59Sure, sir.
00:53:02Leo.
00:53:03Did you forget who you were supposed to be marrying?
00:53:06To what do I owe this unwelcome visit?
00:53:08Leo, it's such a busy schedule you have.
00:53:11You can't even text your old buddies.
00:53:13Spit it out or get lost.
00:53:15You can get yourself a pretty new girlfriend.
00:53:17And suddenly Monica's engagement isn't worth remembering.
00:53:20Look.
00:53:22Monica's situation breaks my heart too.
00:53:24But she vanished as a kid.
00:53:26What, I'm supposed to die alone waiting for a ghost?
00:53:28Monica will be found!
00:53:30And when she is,
00:53:31how will she handle you being seen with that woman?
00:53:35Leo?
00:53:37What's going on?
00:53:37You are breathtaking.
00:53:43I don't think we've met.
00:53:45Are we done here?
00:53:47Tell me, sweetheart.
00:53:49Do you get a kick out of homewrecking?
00:53:51What?
00:53:52Stop trying to steal what isn't yours.
00:53:55That's enough, Ryan.
00:54:01Leo, who was that?
00:54:02Nobody important.
00:54:04Just keep your distance if you see him again.
00:54:18Can you believe Miss Evelyn landed someone like Leo Carter?
00:54:22Straight out of a storybook.
00:54:24They say she's an orphan.
00:54:25Well, some people have the most unusual luck.
00:54:28Jennifer, shouldn't you be in handcuffs somewhere?
00:54:50My brother Ryan makes jail cells magically open.
00:54:54Funny about that.
00:54:56You know what else is funny?
00:54:57How a plain Jane, nobody like you,
00:55:00would have the nerve to steal someone else's fiancé.
00:55:02Talk about shameless.
00:55:04What are you talking about?
00:55:05Oh, please.
00:55:06Just admit you're the side piece.
00:55:08She's the other woman?
00:55:09God, what a tramp.
00:55:11She must have some special skills to keep Leo so captivated.
00:55:16Enjoy your victory lap while it lasts.
00:55:18When my sister Monica returns,
00:55:20you'll be yesterday's news.
00:55:22What are you even talking about?
00:55:23Jennifer, seriously, this constant harassment has to stop.
00:55:26Find a hobby.
00:55:28Knitting, maybe.
00:55:31So, orphan girl.
00:55:34Pretty slick how you set this whole gold digging operation,
00:55:37but isn't that what it's all about?
00:55:42Here.
00:55:44Take the check.
00:55:46Typical gold digger.
00:55:47I'm already counting the zeros.
00:55:50Word of advice.
00:55:51Don't push your luck.
00:55:55Good.
00:55:56Now that you've taken the money, you'll soon be...
00:55:58Is this a game to you?
00:56:07Consider this a lesson in economics.
00:56:10Your check has zero value in my marriage.
00:56:15I'm not leaving Leo.
00:56:16Leo's temporary obsession doesn't make you royalty.
00:56:19What are you really?
00:56:21Take a good look in the mirror.
00:56:23Trash.
00:56:23Have you lost mind assaulting my sister?
00:56:32She needed another reality check.
00:56:35That's all to be expected from an orphan.
00:56:38Absolutely zero class.
00:56:40She's completely unhinged.
00:56:42Her parents probably saw it coming and ran.
00:56:45Shut your...
00:56:46The audacity.
00:56:49First you snatch my sister's fiance,
00:56:51then you assault me in public?
00:56:53Apologize to my sister.
00:56:55Right now.
00:56:55Get your hands off of me.
00:56:58Last chance.
00:57:00Apologize or prepare to face the consequences.
00:57:04Ah!
00:57:06This woman's unhinged.
00:57:08She drew blood.
00:57:10Someone call the psychiatric where we've got a live one.
00:57:13Hands off her.
00:57:17Touch her.
00:57:18I dare you.
00:57:19Leo.
00:57:23Can't you see what she is?
00:57:25She threw a drink at me and clawed my brother.
00:57:28Funny.
00:57:29I just saw two people ganging up on my wife.
00:57:31Leo, what kind of spell has she put on you?
00:57:33This tramp destroyed our family's engagement.
00:57:38You're engaged.
00:57:40If not for that accident,
00:57:42Leo would have been engaged to someone else.
00:57:46Nick?
00:57:47Get her out of here.
00:57:47You're throwing me out
00:57:51because of this tramp?
00:57:53Again?
00:57:54If this is how little you value our family, Leo,
00:57:57then you can consider our partnership terminated.
00:58:00We're done here.
00:58:10Monica.
00:58:11Forget her.
00:58:13She's in the past.
00:58:14What I care about is right now.
00:58:17What about burning bridges with a wood family?
00:58:20Won't that hurt your company?
00:58:22If it does, I'll make you pay.
00:58:25By spending a lifetime making it up to me.
00:58:28Okay, look.
00:58:40All our customers left.
00:58:43Yeah, and they're complaining the taste of the food.
00:58:47What is this taste-off nonsense?
00:58:49We haven't changed a single recipe or technique.
00:58:51Shut it, okay?
00:58:52This disaster is on.
00:58:53Yo.
00:58:55Some master apprentice chef.
00:58:56You are.
00:58:57Your food sucks.
00:58:58Okay, and we're going to be out of business within weeks.
00:59:00Are you kidding me?
00:59:02Hey.
00:59:03It's your bottom-tier customers
00:59:04who don't appreciate real food.
00:59:12Hi.
00:59:13What can I do for you, ma'am?
00:59:15This place is clearly on its lost legs.
00:59:18We're just simply experiencing a momentary...
00:59:23I'm willing to invest in this place.
00:59:31You know what?
00:59:32What incredible insight did you have?
00:59:34Hold on.
00:59:35This is our chef.
00:59:37She trained under the legendary chef.
00:59:39You can see.
00:59:39Great.
00:59:41Oh, my God.
00:59:43Are those culinary gala passes?
00:59:46It's the event of the year.
00:59:49One appetizer there gets more publicity
00:59:51than most restaurants seen in a lifetime.
00:59:53No, no, no.
00:59:53Mr. Dinard will be judging.
00:59:56And with one single nut,
00:59:57that means we'll have reservations
00:59:59put down for years.
01:00:00He just...
01:00:01Why would you do this for us?
01:00:06We have the same enemy.
01:00:08All in good time, darlings.
01:00:10All in good time.
01:00:13Good timing indeed for us.
01:00:16The Culinary Gal is happening this weekend.
01:00:26Would you care to join me as my date?
01:00:28I'll go.
01:00:31But I'll be there as head chef.
01:00:33Not as your arm can do you.
01:00:34You're welcome.
01:00:48Evelyn Taylor.
01:00:50Seriously?
01:00:50What's next?
01:00:51The dishwasher getting Michelin Star?
01:00:53You know, this is an A-list event.
01:00:56With every food mogul in attendance,
01:00:58what did you...
01:00:58Let me guess.
01:00:59Sneak in here for the buffet?
01:01:00Word on the street is your restaurant shutting down. Is that true?
01:01:05How dare you spread such vicious rumors.
01:01:07Can we get security to kick this con artist out?
01:01:10I have an invitation to this event. Who's gonna kick me out?
01:01:13They invited a nobody like you. They lose their minds.
01:01:17Evelyn, you know, we needed Miss Jennifer's help from our invitation.
01:01:21And what makes you think that you're so worthy to be here, huh?
01:01:25Madeline, Caleb, why waste your breath?
01:01:29On this nobody.
01:01:31Jennifer! What's your angle this time?
01:01:33Imagine my surprise. Running into such trouble at an event my family sponsors.
01:01:39Miss Jennifer, allow us to take out this trash for you.
01:01:46Hands off now!
01:01:52Jennifer, mess with Evelyn again. Not even your brother can protect you.
01:01:56Mr. Carter, don't believe Evelyn's act. She's nothing but a fraud.
01:02:00Yeah, she dropped Caleb like garbage once she realized your money.
01:02:04Get her out of here.
01:02:06Hey, hey! How dare you!
01:02:08I'm Chef E's prodigy. I'm a big new thing in the food world.
01:02:12You? Chef E's apprentice?
01:02:14What? Told that lie enough times even you started to believe it?
01:02:17That's bullshit. I trade directly under Chef E.
01:02:21So who's the liar here?
01:02:23Look at Madeline's confidence. She has to be the real apprentice.
01:02:27I can settle this debate with one taste of her cooking.
01:02:31Oh my god, it's Durand! The ultimate authority on Chef E's technique.
01:02:37Well, Miss Evans, care to put your skills to the test?
01:02:41Alright, but only if Evelyn competes too.
01:02:45Loser quits the food industry for good.
01:02:49Even if you lose?
01:02:51Have you lost your mind? There's no way we're losing.
01:02:56When you lose, you'll apologize to me in front of everyone.
01:03:01And whoever I like.
01:03:03Deal. Ready to solve your way out of the food industry.
01:03:11You incompetent idiots! How long does it take to find my sister?
01:03:15Oh, goodness.
01:03:22Wait. Show me the birthmark on the nape of your neck.
01:03:25Back off! Get your hands off of me!
01:03:27Come with me to the hospital, please!
01:03:29Are you insane? Why would I go anywhere with you?
01:03:32Listen to me. You might actually be-
01:03:35Don't touch me, you freak!
01:03:42One DNA test will tell me everything.
01:03:48Leo, hand me my Chef White's.
01:04:02What are you doing?
01:04:17Is Evelyn actually Chef E?
01:04:19What's in that?
01:04:32Something that destroys taste buds.
01:04:37You wanna play games with me, Evelyn?
01:04:39I'll bury you so deep you'll never climb out.
01:04:42Show us your culinary creations, ladies.
01:04:45Three, two, one, go.
01:04:50No one can find out I'm lying about being Chef E's student.
01:04:53Losing isn't an option.
01:04:54I'm a boy.
01:04:55No one can even take it out.
01:04:57I'm dying because of the actual comedy as his cultural and cultural.
01:04:59No one can have an option.
01:05:00No one can do this.
01:05:01And then we'll have to get your money.
01:05:02We'll need to get your opportunity to make our money.
01:05:03And let's get your money.
01:05:05If you have the option.
01:05:06No one can do this.
01:05:07Oh, it's not an option.
01:05:08This dish has quite an unusual appearance.
01:05:36Such flair, and daring, and ingredient pairing.
01:05:42Even Mr. Duran praised Madeline.
01:05:44It's no wonder she's Sheffy's student.
01:05:48It's not too late to give up now.
01:05:52What is this? Why are these two the same?
01:05:55Who's the copycat here?
01:06:00Are you sure this is okay?
01:06:02I've seen Evelyn make this exact dish.
01:06:04Try it.
01:06:06Oh my god.
01:06:18That's right.
01:06:20No one has ever seen this dish before.
01:06:23Use it to defeat Evelyn.
01:06:25Evelyn, how dare you steal my creation?
01:06:29Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
01:06:35Whatever she says, this is my win.
01:06:38Mr. Duran, please try the dish now.
01:06:43Mr. Duran maintains his notorious high standards.
01:06:52Seven for Mr. Duran proves Madeline is a prodigy.
01:06:57It is identical to my recipe, down to the last detail.
01:07:01But...
01:07:02Madeline, care to explain the lemon in your dish?
01:07:06I can't reveal my culinary secrets.
01:07:09I'll explain then.
01:07:10The lemon ruins it.
01:07:12Indeed.
01:07:13Without the acidity from the lemon, this would be superior.
01:07:19How did you know?
01:07:20I created this dish when I worked at Mitchell & Vine.
01:07:24I'm the original chef.
01:07:26Wait, so...
01:07:27Did Madeline steal this recipe?
01:07:29How else would she know that lemon compromises the flavor?
01:07:32I thought she studied under Chef E.
01:07:35Why would a chef of her pedigree plagiarize?
01:07:39Wait.
01:07:40Wait.
01:07:41Oh, wait.
01:07:43Esteemed guests.
01:07:45I am the owner of Mitchell & Vine.
01:07:47And I swear by and earth, Evelyn did not create this dish.
01:07:55Caleb, you're a real piece of work.
01:07:57I get it.
01:07:58You're still mad that I fired you.
01:08:00But don't you dare bring Madeline into your vendetta.
01:08:03Are you trying to twist the truth?
01:08:05No.
01:08:06I swear, Madeline, her cooking is undeniable.
01:08:08Mr. Durand, be careful for her.
01:08:10Okay?
01:08:11Evelyn, do you have any proof this dish is yours?
01:08:16Nothing concrete.
01:08:18No smoking guns means no case.
01:08:21Moving on.
01:08:22Time to see what Evelyn's cooked up.
01:08:30Mind-blowing.
01:08:31I mean, sure, similar dishes.
01:08:36But this, this is ingredient poetry.
01:08:40Absolutely perfection.
01:08:43Mr. Durand gave Evelyn a perfect 10.
01:08:46Who is this Evelyn person anyway?
01:08:48This can't be happening.
01:08:49I told you I'd crush this.
01:08:51I hereby declare, the winner of this little culinary contest is...
01:08:57Hold on.
01:09:00Mr. Durand, this contest has been compromised.
01:09:03What are you implying?
01:09:04I believe Evelyn has cheated.
01:09:12How could I have possibly cheated?
01:09:14And no one chef couldn't possibly outdo the sole apprentice of Chef E.
01:09:18Seriously?
01:09:19That's your evidence?
01:09:20Let's be real.
01:09:21Chef E is a culinary god.
01:09:23The only way she could have won is by cheating.
01:09:27Hear that?
01:09:28No one's buying it.
01:09:29We need another round right now.
01:09:35Here's my decision.
01:09:36One final round.
01:09:38Recreating Chef E's signature dish, Destin.
01:09:43No way.
01:09:44The dish that made Chef E famous at the final chef showdown.
01:09:47We're seeing this live.
01:09:48Durand practically used to swoon over that dish back in the day.
01:09:52He is going to scrutinize every bite.
01:09:55Jackpot.
01:09:56I've practiced this recipe till I could make it in my sleep.
01:10:00Will you take up the challenge?
01:10:03Absolutely.
01:10:07Boss?
01:10:08How can you laugh when Miss Taylor is in such a tight spot?
01:10:11This might get interesting.
01:10:17Are you serious about this?
01:10:18What's wrong?
01:10:19This is my mentor's masterpiece we've been talking about.
01:10:22But the door's right there if you're not up for it.
01:10:27What's so funny?
01:10:28Oh nothing.
01:10:29I'm just laughing at you.
01:10:31Digging your own grave.
01:10:32You just had luck earlier.
01:10:34But now I'm going to crush you.
01:10:36Bring it on.
01:10:38Evelyn, you can still back out.
01:10:39There's no shame in that.
01:10:42Hey look what, you're not humiliated enough already?
01:10:44What, you need a bigger crowd?
01:10:47Just get out of here.
01:10:48You'll make me sick.
01:11:02If you're going to be difficult, I'll destroy you once and for all.
01:11:05Once and for all.
01:11:14They're now creating Chef E's masterpiece.
01:11:18Destiny.
01:11:24Destiny.
01:11:26You know your heart's racing.
01:11:35You're the one.
01:11:36Tomatoes.
01:11:37In Destiny.
01:11:38Are you just freestyling because you know you're toast?
01:11:40Do you ever shut up?
01:11:41Oh, keep that attitude.
01:11:42But you're about to get schooled in what Destiny truly means.
01:11:59Madeline learned this recipe directly from Chef E.
01:12:08No one can beat her unless Chef E shows up herself.
01:12:22Oh Leo.
01:12:24Open your eyes.
01:12:25Evelyn's a total loser.
01:12:26She's so beneath you.
01:12:31Sorry, uh, Mr. Jennifer, your perfume, it's basically a chemical weapon.
01:12:37Can't have your gas in the boss.
01:12:39Leo, mark my words, you'll be mine.
01:12:41Just watch Evelyn crash and burn in this industry.
01:12:45It's time!
01:12:49Are you kidding me?
01:12:50If you don't know the dish, don't just wing it.
01:12:53Three's ours.
01:12:56I don't know.
01:12:58So you just decided to reinvent Chef E's iconic dish?
01:13:04Bold move.
01:13:06Chef E didn't create Destiny as a recipe to be copied.
01:13:09She created it as a challenge to follow your own path.
01:13:12So you're saying your mish-mash surpasses the master's original?
01:13:16Mr. Duran, please just try the dishes.
01:13:17Solid construction.
01:13:18You captured the essence of the original.
01:13:26Hmm.
01:13:27Hmm.
01:13:28As crazy as it sounds, you not only honored Chef Eve's iconic vision, you transcended it!
01:13:47This can't be!
01:13:48This can't be happening.
01:13:49You cheated!
01:13:50Admit it!
01:13:51On the topic of cheating, I think I've got something you'd want to see.
01:14:04How did you even-
01:14:05I saw it coming a mile away.
01:14:06I had her equipment replaced before you could do any damage.
01:14:10This crosses all the lines.
01:14:11Adeline?
01:14:12Caleb?
01:14:13You are banned from the culinary world.
01:14:14PERMANENT!
01:14:15What has I been to you?
01:14:16Duran?
01:14:17Does a triumph of your destiny have anything to do with my contribution?
01:14:18Oh no.
01:14:19I should.
01:14:20I want to get back to you.
01:14:21I want to get back to you.
01:14:22How did you even-
01:14:24How did you even-
01:14:26I saw it coming a mile away.
01:14:27I had her equipment replaced before you could do any damage.
01:14:29Oh.
01:14:30That's okay.
01:14:31This crosses all the lines.
01:14:34Adeline?
01:14:35Caleb?
01:14:36You are banned from the culinary world.
01:14:37PERMANENT!
