FunTranscript
00:00:04The game now begins!
00:00:44Congratulations to Sage Bennett on her historic fifth consecutive World Culinary Championship!
00:00:51The only chef ever to claim the title five years in a row!
00:01:03And today, the home group, the restaurant and hospitality empire Sage Bennett founded,
00:01:09has officially been ranked number one in the world.
00:01:13She's not just a culinary legend now, she's the queen of hospitality!
00:01:19Boss, the tattered clothes you asked for are ready.
00:01:26For years, I've given to others anonymously.
00:01:28But today, I'm looking for someone with genuine character.
00:01:33Someone worthy of becoming a partner in my top restaurant.
00:01:36The first person to offer me food gets a ten million dollar investment.
00:01:40Please, could someone spare a little food?
00:01:44Wait! Don't go over there!
00:01:45What's wrong, babe?
00:01:47That bum over there went to high school with me.
00:01:50If she spots me, she'll probably start begging me for money.
00:01:54Let's take a side street.
00:01:56Wait, you mean Sage? That's really her?
00:01:59You know her?
00:02:00She's my ex. We broke up when she left town for work.
00:02:03Wow, I never thought she'd end up on the street.
00:02:06I've gotta record this.
00:02:07Come on, if people find out a successful restaurant owner like me went to school with her,
00:02:13it'll screw up my image!
00:02:14Molly, that franchise you're so proud of only exists because I gave it to you.
00:02:20Please, could someone...
00:02:22Is there really no one out here worth believing in?
00:02:44Are you alright?
00:02:50Jasper, why are you standing around? With some filthy hobo?
00:02:56You gave my bread to her?
00:02:58Your bread? I bought it, and you said you didn't want it.
00:03:03Even if I don't want it, it shouldn't be wasted on a sewer rat like her.
00:03:10She belongs on the ground picking up scraps.
00:03:13Daisy, that's enough!
00:03:14I'm your fiancé, and you're taking some random bum side over me?
00:03:19If you still want to marry me, then make her get lost. Right now.
00:03:24Well, I guess the wedding's off.
00:03:25What did you just say? You're calling off our engagement over some homeless freak?
00:03:30Do you have any idea what my father could do to her?
00:03:33Leave her out of this, Daisy. I made this decision a long time ago.
00:03:36Our engagement was nothing more than a family arrangement.
00:03:39You were never the woman I wanted to marry.
00:03:41My wife won't be someone who looks down on those with less than her.
00:03:45Someone who treats cruelty like a virtue.
00:03:48You bastard! How dare you!
00:03:50Your family's restaurant is already drowning financially.
00:03:54Without my father's investment, it'll be out of business in no time!
00:03:57Your father only angled for this marriage because he's after my family's recipes.
00:04:00And let me make this clear, even if we're struggling, our restaurant isn't something he can just take away.
00:04:09You're gonna regret this!
00:04:13Dad, Jasper just called off our engagement!
00:04:16Buy out his family's restaurant now!
00:04:17I want you to strip him of everything!
00:04:28I'm sorry you got dragged into all this.
00:04:30Please, take the money.
00:04:32At least let me buy you a decent meal.
00:04:34No, I don't want all that money.
00:04:37Just a burger.
00:04:38Lady, that money could buy ten burgers!
00:04:40I only want one burger.
00:04:43Fresh off the grill.
00:04:44Still hot.
00:04:50Here you go.
00:04:51Hope it's what you wanted.
00:05:00Easy there.
00:05:01Take your time.
00:05:02And please, keep the money.
00:05:03It'll buy you plenty more burgers.
00:05:07You're a good man.
00:05:09It's nothing.
00:05:10His kindness, it's genuine.
00:05:14Then let me thank you properly.
00:05:17An exclusive $10 billion investment contract from Home Group?
00:05:21Covering the entire state?
00:05:23Nice try, but I'm not falling for this.
00:05:26You should take it back.
00:05:27Why would I be joking?
00:05:29My cousin works at Home Group.
00:05:31A contract like this can only be signed by the founder herself, the culinary legend.
00:05:35What, don't tell me you're actually her?
00:05:37Well, you know what, never mind.
00:05:40If you don't believe me, then tell me what else you want.
00:05:42Whatever it is, I'll make it happen.
00:05:44Something else?
00:05:45No, that's really not.
00:05:50Jasper, everything's ready here.
00:05:51When are you and Daisy getting back?
00:05:53Mom, Daisy and I, we've run into a bit of a situation.
00:05:56A situation?
00:05:57Did you two have a fight?
00:05:58Jasper, go make things right.
00:06:00Our restaurant is depending on the funding from this marriage.
00:06:02We cannot lose the bride.
00:06:03And we certainly can't survive the damage to our reputations if this goes south.
00:06:07Do you understand?
00:06:08Don't worry.
00:06:09I'll get you a bride.
00:06:10You said you'd make any wish I had come true?
00:06:13Yes.
00:06:15Anything.
00:06:16Then give me your hand.
00:06:25If you really want to thank me, then marry me.
00:06:30Marry you?
00:06:32No, I can't.
00:06:33My family's restaurant is in trouble, and my parents are hoping a marriage will bring in investors.
00:06:38But I refuse to treat my own future like a business deal.
00:06:41So, I'm asking you to pretend to be a wealthy bride and come home with me, just to help me
00:06:47get through the wedding.
00:06:49That's...
00:06:50Don't worry.
00:06:50I'm not asking you to do it for free.
00:06:52I'll give you $500 a day.
00:06:54You earn some steady cash.
00:06:55My family calms down.
00:06:57What do you say?
00:06:58Perfect.
00:06:59It'll give me more time to see who he really is.
00:07:05Alright, you've got yourself a deal.
00:07:28Wow, you look incredible.
00:07:35So, want a kiss?
00:07:37Whoa, we're not even real husband and wife.
00:07:42You can't just start talking like that.
00:07:44Well, we could always make it real.
00:07:50I can't.
00:07:51I already have feelings for someone.
00:07:56It's her.
00:07:57The woman who won the World Culinary Championship at 18.
00:08:01Built home group into the greatest hospitality empire on Earth.
00:08:04And went on to dominate the competition year after year.
00:08:07The one and only culinary legend.
00:08:09She's the woman of my dreams.
00:08:12He's got a crush on me?
00:08:14That's unexpectedly adorable.
00:08:18So don't get any ideas.
00:08:20Maintain a safe distance.
00:08:22Otherwise, I'll have to revoke your fake ride privileges.
00:08:27Relax.
00:08:28You're not my type.
00:08:29Just make sure you don't fall for me first.
00:08:32Impossible.
00:08:33Impossible.
00:08:34My heart already belongs to the culinary legend.
00:08:38Stay here.
00:08:39I'm going to grab a few gifts for you to bring home.
00:08:42It'll help you make a good first impression on my family.
00:08:47Put together a gift package worth $50 million.
00:08:50Have it delivered to Vance Restaurant under home group's name.
00:08:54Right away, boss.
00:09:00Remember, if my parents ask what your family does, tell them your parents own a restaurant company.
00:09:07Annual revenue, let's see.
00:09:10Daisy's family makes about $5 million a year.
00:09:13So tell them yours makes $10 million.
00:09:16And you're okay with lying to them?
00:09:18My family's desperate for investment.
00:09:21The only way they'll accept a last-minute replacement fiancé is if they think she's an upgrade on paper.
00:09:26But that doesn't actually solve the problem.
00:09:29Your restaurant is still in trouble.
00:09:33It'll work out.
00:09:34My idol always says,
00:09:37The only strength that matters is your own.
00:09:40I've spent years building my startup.
00:09:42One day I'll solve my family's problems myself,
00:09:46Build a world-class restaurant and stand beside the culinary legend as her equal.
00:09:58Is Jasper back yet?
00:10:01Honestly, forcing him to marry that spoiled Daisy just to save the restaurant isn't fair to him.
00:10:07Mom, how can you say that?
00:10:09Daisy's family practically runs the restaurant industry in this state.
00:10:12Right. Marrying her brings a million dollars into our business.
00:10:16That's something to celebrate.
00:10:18Exactly. Jasper's 29. It's time he settled down.
00:10:21And I'm not handing over the family's secret sauce recipe until he does.
00:10:26Daisy, Syrah's daughter, the biggest name in the local restaurant business.
00:10:29It's a good match. He's hardly suffering.
00:10:32What's so special about that rich girl?
00:10:35I should have been the one marrying Jasper.
00:10:39Dad, Mom, Grandma, we're here!
00:10:47Wait. Why isn't Daisy with you?
00:10:50Who is that?
00:10:54Jasper! What is the meaning of this? Where's Daisy?
00:10:57Mom, Dad, I called off the engagement.
00:11:01I don't love Daisy.
00:11:03Sage is the woman I want to marry.
00:11:04And today, that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:11:08Have you lost your mind?
00:11:09Jasper, this is unbelievably irresponsible.
00:11:12Do you have any idea how badly we need Daisy's family's investment?
00:11:15If you alienate them, you could bankrupt this restaurant overnight.
00:11:19Enough.
00:11:21We've got a yard full of guests and a wedding ready to go.
00:11:24The least we can do is hear the boy out.
00:11:27Sage, go ahead and introduce yourself.
00:11:30Mr. Vance, Mrs. Vance, Grandmother, it's a pleasure to meet all of you.
00:11:35Where are you from?
00:11:36How many people are in your family?
00:11:38What do your parents do?
00:11:39And how much money do they make?
00:11:41We're from Houston.
00:11:42I'm an only child.
00:11:43My father owns a chain of restaurant hotels.
00:11:46And my mother is a homemaker.
00:11:48Annual family income, $10 million.
00:11:51$10 million a year?
00:11:53Daisy's family runs the biggest restaurant business around here and they only make five.
00:11:56This fiancé is the real deal.
00:11:58Well, isn't that wonderful?
00:12:00A restaurant family just like ours.
00:12:02I knew I liked you the moment I saw you.
00:12:05Called it.
00:12:11Sweetheart, where are your parents?
00:12:13It's your wedding day.
00:12:15Why aren't they here?
00:12:17My parents are overseas on business.
00:12:19They couldn't get away.
00:12:20Right.
00:12:21Sage's parents are pretty hands-off.
00:12:22She makes her own decisions.
00:12:24As long as she sends them an email, they're happy.
00:12:26That's true.
00:12:26Wealthy families are different about those things.
00:12:31Jasper, this was a reckless stunt.
00:12:32Next time, you talk to us first.
00:12:35Understood?
00:12:36Well then, let's not waste any more time.
00:12:37The ceremony's about to start.
00:12:39Come with me.
00:12:39I'll get you ready.
00:12:42Hold on!
00:12:43Elena!
00:12:44She's lying.
00:12:45Every word of it.
00:12:48Mia, why would you say something like that?
00:12:51Mia, I know you've always had feelings for Jasper.
00:12:54But Sage is clearly a better match for him.
00:12:58Don't start trouble where there isn't any.
00:13:01Aunt Elena, I'm serious.
00:13:02I saw her with my own eyes this morning coming out of some run-down hotel.
00:13:06She is not some wealthy hotel heiress.
00:13:18What kind of rich iris stays in a motel?
00:13:20Shouldn't she be living in one of her family's luxury hotels?
00:13:23Jasper, care to explain?
00:13:25If her family owns hotels, why were the two of you coming out of a dump like that?
00:13:31Jasper's been conned.
00:13:32She saw a handsome guy from a family that owns a successful restaurant and decided to
00:13:37scam her way into your lives.
00:13:39That's not true!
00:13:40Sage isn't a scammer!
00:13:41She was there because...
00:13:43Because...
00:13:43Because my family's hotels are exclusive resort on private islands.
00:13:49We don't operate properties on the mainland.
00:13:52Hotels on private islands?
00:13:54How luxurious is that?
00:13:57Nothing extravagant.
00:13:58Just over 500 properties worldwide.
00:14:00The brand is called Home.
00:14:01If you'd like, I can arrange membership cards for everyone.
00:14:04Home?
00:14:05That's the Culinary Legends Company.
00:14:08Are you trying to get me killed?
00:14:09I told you to pretend to be rich, not pretend to be the Culinary Legend.
00:14:14See?
00:14:14I told you!
00:14:16She's a fraud!
00:14:17Home was founded by the Culinary Legend herself, and this woman is actually claiming it belongs
00:14:22to her family!
00:14:24That's unbelievable.
00:14:25Who tells lies that ridiculous?
00:14:27What a fraud.
00:14:28Does she really think anyone can pretend to be the Culinary Legend?
00:14:31Jasper, have you been lying to your father and me?
00:14:34No, I'm not.
00:14:35Jasper, the truth.
00:14:37Right now, who exactly is this woman?
00:14:41Mom, Dad, her family really is in the hotel business, just not home.
00:14:46She was joking, that's all, just making a joke.
00:14:48Grandma, you've always wanted to see me get married, right?
00:14:51Let us do it today, right here, with you watching.
00:14:54Wait, we're not done here.
00:14:56Mia, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:14:58Are you deliberately trying to ruin this?
00:14:59Jasper, I'm not trying to cause trouble.
00:15:01I just don't want Aunt Elena and the rest of the family being lied to.
00:15:04Mia, what are you saying?
00:15:05Aunt Elena, doesn't this strike you as strange?
00:15:07For years, Jasper has been obsessed with the Culinary Legend.
00:15:10He's always said that if he couldn't marry her, anyone else would just be settling.
00:15:14So how does he suddenly meet the love of his life and call off an engagement over her?
00:15:20Jasper, you didn't hire someone to pretend to be your bride just to get out of this marriage,
00:15:24did you?
00:15:25No way, that's insane.
00:15:28That can't be true.
00:15:30Jasper would never lie to me.
00:15:31Jasper, answer me.
00:15:33Is this woman a fake bride you hired to deceive your grandmother?
00:15:37Dad, Grandma, don't listen to her.
00:15:39Stop making things up.
00:15:40Am I?
00:15:41Since the moment they got here, they've done everything they can to keep their distance.
00:15:44Other than holding hands, they haven't acted like a couple once.
00:15:47No chemistry, no affection.
00:15:49They don't look like two people about to get married.
00:15:51Because it's all fake!
00:15:55Oh, you want affection?
00:15:56Fine.
00:15:57We'll give you affection.
00:16:00Here, sweetheart.
00:16:01Have something sweet.
00:16:03Let me steal a taste.
00:16:25Why do her eyes feel so familiar?
00:16:27I told you, my grandson would never lie to me.
00:16:30Look at them.
00:16:31They're perfect together.
00:16:33You're the first man who's ever had the nerve to kiss me like that.
00:16:39Happy now?
00:16:40How does it feel watching the man you like kiss somebody else?
00:16:44Mr. Vance!
00:16:46Looks like quite the celebration you've got going on.
00:16:49That's Cyrus Potter.
00:16:50Daisy's father, the biggest name in the restaurant business in the state.
00:16:53And that kid with him, isn't that Senator Bruce's only son?
00:16:57Jasper just dumped his daughter.
00:16:58There's no way he's here for anything good.
00:17:11Mr. Potter, I owe you an apology.
00:17:14What Jasper did to your daughter was wrong.
00:17:17And I'm truly sorry.
00:17:19Forget the engagement.
00:17:20I heard your restaurant has a secret sauce.
00:17:23So good it can make anyone hungry.
00:17:25Senator Bruce asked me to bring young Master Leo here to try it.
00:17:29If you can get him to eat, there'll be a very generous reward.
00:17:32If you can't, then maybe this restaurant doesn't deserve to stay in business.
00:17:37Mr. Potter, we do have the sauce.
00:17:38But I've injured my wrist recently.
00:17:40And young Master Leo's condition is...
00:17:42So you're saying you can't meet a customer's needs?
00:17:45A restaurant that can't serve its guests has no business staying open.
00:17:49Perhaps I should recommend the Senator shut this place down.
00:17:52No.
00:17:52Everybody knows Senator Bruce's son suffers from severe anorexia.
00:17:56World-class chefs have tried and failed to get him to eat.
00:17:58The only person who ever succeeded was the culinary legend,
00:18:01and the Senator paid a hundred million dollars for that meal.
00:18:04You're not here for dinner.
00:18:05You're here to destroy us.
00:18:10That's right.
00:18:12You had the nerve to dump my daughter.
00:18:14Now you get to watch your whole family lose everything.
00:18:19Vance Restaurant is unable to serve its customers.
00:18:22That's grounds for closure.
00:18:23Tear it apart.
00:18:27Stop.
00:18:32What?
00:18:33Has Vance Restaurant fallen so low that it needs a woman to fight its battles?
00:18:38There she goes again.
00:18:40Always desperate for attention.
00:18:43What are you doing?
00:18:44This is my family's problem, not yours.
00:18:48Stay behind me.
00:18:49No one's ever tried to protect me before.
00:18:52You want payback for your daughter?
00:18:54Fine.
00:18:55This is all on me.
00:18:56Do whatever you want of me.
00:18:57Just leave my family out of it.
00:19:00Brave little fool.
00:19:02If you want to go down first, be my guest.
00:19:08Nobody lays a hand on my son.
00:19:10I will make something Master Leo enjoys.
00:19:13Until then, you don't touch a single member of my family,
00:19:16and you don't damage a single thing in my restaurant.
00:19:18They haven't even had a chance to cook yet.
00:19:20How can you shut them down already?
00:19:22He's not even trying to hide it.
00:19:24This is obviously a setup.
00:19:25Fine.
00:19:26But if you fail,
00:19:28don't blame me when I shut this place down on the spot.
00:19:39Let's see if you've got anything that can compete with the culinary legend.
00:20:00Let's see if you've got anything that can compete with the culinary legend.
00:20:01Please, give it a try.
00:20:14Oh my God, he ate it!
00:20:16Master Leo won't even touch food he doesn't like,
00:20:19but Chef Rowan actually got him to take a bite!
00:20:22Honey, you did it!
00:20:27Sage, what is it?
00:20:29The sauce is good,
00:20:31but the dish still isn't reaching its full potential.
00:20:34Are you saying my dish isn't good enough?
00:20:37Can you stop pretending you're some kind of expert?
00:20:40If there was something wrong with the dish,
00:20:42why would Master Leo eat it?
00:20:44Do you think we're all idiots?
00:20:56That's disgusting!
00:20:58Why would you serve me this?
00:21:01What?
00:21:02No way!
00:21:03She was right.
00:21:04She actually called it.
00:21:06Vance Restaurant has failed to satisfy its customer.
00:21:10Clearly unfit to operate.
00:21:13As the senator's representative.
00:21:15I'm shutting this place down immediately!
00:21:18Wait!
00:21:20Who says nobody in the Vance family can make something he'll eat?
00:21:24You're supposed to be some rich heiress.
00:21:27Since when do rich girls know how to cook?
00:21:30Stop making things worse.
00:21:32Ha!
00:21:33Rowan, have you really run out of options?
00:21:36You're actually hiding behind a woman now?
00:21:39Sage, stop.
00:21:40Be serious.
00:21:41You don't know how to cook.
00:21:43He doesn't need food.
00:21:45He needs a taste that reminds him what hunger feels like.
00:21:48A taste that wakes his appetite back up.
00:21:51And there's only one person in the world who knows how to do that.
00:21:54And it's me.
00:21:59Do you trust me?
00:22:00There's something about her.
00:22:02Something that makes you want to believe.
00:22:04Fine.
00:22:05One last chance.
00:22:07I want a dish on that table in ten minutes.
00:22:09And nobody helps her.
00:22:11Ten minutes?
00:22:12It takes five minutes just to prep the ingredients.
00:22:15Nobody can make a proper dish in ten.
00:22:17You've got one shot.
00:22:19Of course, you're welcome to give up now.
00:22:22You!
00:22:23Fine.
00:22:24But ten minutes is excessive.
00:22:26Give me three.
00:22:28Three minutes?
00:22:29Sage, this is no time for jokes.
00:22:31You can't even prep the ingredients in three minutes.
00:22:34If she wants to embarrass herself, who am I to stop her?
00:22:37Three minutes it is.
00:22:38Jasper, your fiancé has completely lost her mind.
00:22:42Are you sure about this?
00:22:43Three minutes isn't enough time.
00:22:45For someone else, maybe.
00:22:47Not for me.
00:23:03She carries chef's skills with her everywhere?
00:23:14Go ahead.
00:23:15Let's see what miracle you think you can pull off in three minutes.
00:23:20Go show them what you've got.
00:23:41How far along is she?
00:23:42Why is it so quiet?
00:23:44Maybe she realized she's in over her head and is back there crying.
00:24:0030 seconds.
00:24:01That's all you've got left.
00:24:03Jasper, I told you she couldn't do it.
00:24:05Mia, are you actually rooting for my family's restaurant to fail?
00:24:09That's not what I meant.
00:24:18What is that smell?
00:24:20I've never smelled anything like it before.
00:24:23Oh my God.
00:24:25I'm actually drooling.
00:24:26She cooked with oil, yet there's not a trace of smoke.
00:24:29Just the pure aroma of vegetables and meat.
00:24:31This is the pinnacle of the craft.
00:24:33The level only the culinary legend is supposed to reach.
00:24:36Jasper, who exactly did you bring home?
00:24:41Ten seconds!
00:24:42If she doesn't put a dish on that table, I'm shutting this place down!
00:24:54Please, enjoy.
00:25:03That's...
00:25:04That's impossible!
00:25:17The game now begins!
00:25:45Let's go!
00:25:57Congratulations to Sage Bennett on her historic 5th consecutive World Culinary Championship.
00:26:04The only chef ever to claim the title five years in a row.
00:26:16And today, the home group, the restaurant and hospitality empire Sage Bennett founded, has officially been ranked number one in
00:26:25the world.
00:26:26She's not just a culinary legend now, she's the queen of hospitality.
00:26:32Boss, the tethered clothes you asked for are ready.
00:26:39For years, I've given to others anonymously.
00:26:42But today, I'm looking for someone with genuine character, someone worthy of becoming a partner in my top restaurant.
00:26:49The first person to offer me food gets a $10 million investment.
00:26:53Please, could someone spare a little food?
00:26:57Wait! Don't go over there!
00:26:59What's wrong, babe?
00:27:00That bum over there went to high school with me.
00:27:03If she spots me, she'll probably start begging me for money.
00:27:07Let's take a side street.
00:27:09Wait, you mean Sage? That's really her?
00:27:12You know her?
00:27:13She's my ex. We broke up when she left town for work.
00:27:16Wow. I never thought she'd end up on the street.
00:27:19I've got to record this.
00:27:21Come on. If people find out a successful restaurant owner like me went to school with her, it'll screw up
00:27:26my image!
00:27:27Molly, that franchise you're so proud of only exists because I gave it to you.
00:27:33Please, could someone...
00:27:35Is there really no one out here worth believing in?
00:27:57Are you alright?
00:27:58Are you alright?
00:28:03Jasper, why are you standing around?
00:28:06With some filthy hobo?
00:28:09You gave my bread to her?
00:28:11Your bread?
00:28:12I bought it, and you said you didn't want it.
00:28:16Even if I don't want it, it shouldn't be wasted on a sewer rat like her.
00:28:23She belongs on the ground picking up scraps.
00:28:26Daisy, that's enough!
00:28:27I'm your fiancé, and you're taking some random bum side over me?
00:28:32If you still want to marry me, then make her get lost.
00:28:35Right now.
00:28:37Well, I guess the wedding's off.
00:28:39What did you just say?
00:28:40You're calling off our engagement over some homeless freak?
00:28:43Do you have any idea what my father could do to her?
00:28:46Leave her out of this, Daisy.
00:28:48I made this decision a long time ago.
00:28:50Our engagement was nothing more than a family arrangement.
00:28:53You were never the woman I wanted to marry.
00:28:54My wife won't be someone who looks down on those with less than her.
00:28:58Someone who treats cruelty like a virtue.
00:29:01You bastard! How dare you!
00:29:04Your family's restaurant is already drowning financially.
00:29:07Without my father's investment, it'll be out of business in no time!
00:29:10Your father only angled for this marriage because he's after my family's recipes.
00:29:13And let me make this clear, even if we're struggling,
00:29:16our restaurant isn't something he can just take away.
00:29:22You're gonna regret this!
00:29:26Dad, Jasper just called off our engagement!
00:29:29Buy out his family's restaurant now!
00:29:30I want you to strip him of everything!
00:29:41I'm sorry you got dragged into all this.
00:29:43Please, take the money.
00:29:45At least let me buy you a decent meal.
00:29:47No, I don't want all that money.
00:29:50Just a burger.
00:29:51Lady, that money could buy ten burgers!
00:29:54I only want one burger.
00:29:56Fresh off the grill.
00:29:57Still hot.
00:30:03Here you go.
00:30:04Hope it's what you wanted.
00:30:13Easy there.
00:30:14Take your time.
00:30:15And please, keep the money.
00:30:16It'll buy you plenty more burgers.
00:30:20You're a good man.
00:30:22It's nothing.
00:30:23His kindness, it's genuine.
00:30:27Then let me thank you properly.
00:30:30An exclusive $10 billion investment contract from Home Group?
00:30:34Covering the entire state?
00:30:36Nice try, but I'm not falling for this.
00:30:39You should take it back.
00:30:41Why would I be joking?
00:30:42My cousin works at Home Group.
00:30:44A contract like this can only be signed by the founder herself, the culinary legend.
00:30:48What, don't tell me you're actually her?
00:30:50Well, you know what, never mind.
00:30:53If you don't believe me, then tell me what else you want.
00:30:55Whatever it is, I'll make it happen.
00:30:57Something else?
00:30:58No, that's really not.
00:31:03Jasper, everything's ready here.
00:31:04When are you and Daisy getting back?
00:31:06Mom, Daisy and I, we've run into a bit of a situation.
00:31:09A situation?
00:31:10Did you two have a fight?
00:31:11Jasper, go make things right.
00:31:13Our restaurant is depending on the funding from this marriage.
00:31:15We cannot lose the bride.
00:31:16And we certainly can't survive the damage to our reputations if this goes south.
00:31:20Do you understand?
00:31:21Don't worry.
00:31:22I'll get you a bride.
00:31:24You said you'd make any wish I had come true?
00:31:26Yes.
00:31:28Anything.
00:31:29Then give me your hand.
00:31:39If you really want to thank me, then marry me.
00:31:43Marry you?
00:31:45No, I can't.
00:31:46My family's restaurant is in trouble, and my parents are hoping a marriage will bring
00:31:50in investors.
00:31:51But I refuse to treat my own future like a business deal.
00:31:54So, I'm asking you to pretend to be a wealthy bride, and come home with me, just to help
00:32:00me get through the wedding.
00:32:02That's...
00:32:03Don't worry, I'm not asking you to do it for free.
00:32:05I'll give you $500 a day.
00:32:07You earn some steady cash, my family calms down.
00:32:10What do you say?
00:32:12Perfect.
00:32:12It'll give me more time to see who he really is.
00:32:18All right, you've got yourself a deal.
00:32:41Wow.
00:32:42You look incredible.
00:32:48So, want a kiss?
00:32:51Whoa, we're not even real husband and wife.
00:32:55You can't just start talking like that.
00:32:57Well, we could always make it real.
00:33:03I can't.
00:33:04I already have feelings for someone.
00:33:09It's her.
00:33:10The woman who won the World Culinary Championship at 18.
00:33:14Built home group into the greatest hospitality empire on Earth.
00:33:17And went on to dominate the competition year after year.
00:33:20The one and only culinary legend.
00:33:23She's the woman of my dreams.
00:33:25He's got a crush on me?
00:33:28That's unexpectedly adorable.
00:33:31So don't get any ideas.
00:33:33Maintain a safe distance.
00:33:35Otherwise, I'll have to revoke your fake bride privileges.
00:33:40Relax.
00:33:41You're not my type.
00:33:42Just make sure you don't fall for me first.
00:33:45Impossible.
00:33:46My heart already belongs to the culinary legend.
00:33:52Stay here.
00:33:53I'm going to grab a few gifts for you to bring home.
00:33:55It'll help you make a good first impression on my family.
00:34:00Put together a gift package worth $50 million.
00:34:03Have it delivered to Vance Restaurant under home group's name.
00:34:08Right away, boss.
00:34:13Remember, if my parents ask what your family does, tell them your parents own a restaurant company.
00:34:20Annual revenue, let's see.
00:34:24Daisy's family makes about $5 million a year, so tell them yours makes $10 million.
00:34:29And you're okay with lying to them?
00:34:32My family's desperate for investment.
00:34:34The only way they'll accept a last-minute replacement fiancé is if they think she's an upgrade on paper.
00:34:39But that doesn't actually solve the problem.
00:34:42Your restaurant is still in trouble.
00:34:46It'll work out.
00:34:48My idol always says,
00:34:50The only strength that matters is your own.
00:34:53I've spent years building my startup.
00:34:55One day I'll solve my family's problems myself,
00:34:59Build a world-class restaurant and stand beside the culinary legend as her equal.
00:35:11Is Jasper back yet?
00:35:14Honestly, forcing him to marry that spoiled Daisy just to save the restaurant isn't fair to him.
00:35:20Mom, how can you say that?
00:35:22Daisy's family practically runs the restaurant industry in this state.
00:35:26Right. Marrying her brings a million dollars into our business.
00:35:29That's something to celebrate.
00:35:31Exactly. Jasper's 29. It's time he's settled down.
00:35:35And I'm not handing over the family's secret sauce recipe until he does.
00:35:39Daisy Syrah's daughter, the biggest name in the local restaurant business.
00:35:43It's a good match. He's hardly suffering.
00:35:45What's so special about that rich girl?
00:35:48I should have been the one marrying Jasper.
00:35:52Dad, Mom, Grandma, we're here!
00:35:59Wait. Why isn't Daisy with you?
00:36:03Who is that?
00:36:07Jasper! What is the meaning of this? Where's Daisy?
00:36:11Mom, Dad, I called off the engagement.
00:36:14I don't love Daisy. Sage is the woman I want to marry.
00:36:17And today, that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:36:21Have you lost your mind?
00:36:23Jasper, this is unbelievably irresponsible.
00:36:25Do you have any idea how badly we need Daisy's family's investment?
00:36:29If you alienate them, you could bankrupt this restaurant overnight.
00:36:32Enough.
00:36:34We've got a yard full of guests and a wedding ready to go.
00:36:37The least we can do is hear the boy out.
00:36:40Sage, go ahead and introduce yourself.
00:36:43Mr. Vance, Mrs. Vance, Grandmother, it's a pleasure to meet all of you.
00:36:48Where are you from?
00:36:49How many people are in your family?
00:36:51What do your parents do?
00:36:52And how much money do they make?
00:36:54We're from Houston.
00:36:55I'm an only child.
00:36:56My father owns a chain of restaurant hotels, and my mother is a homemaker.
00:37:01Annual family income, $10 million.
00:37:04$10 million a year?
00:37:06Daisy's family runs the biggest restaurant business around here, and they only make five.
00:37:09This fiancé is the real deal.
00:37:11Well, isn't that wonderful?
00:37:13A restaurant family just like ours.
00:37:15I knew I liked you the moment I saw you.
00:37:18Called it.
00:37:24Sweetheart, where are your parents?
00:37:27It's your wedding day.
00:37:28Why aren't they here?
00:37:30My parents are overseas on business.
00:37:32They couldn't get away.
00:37:34Right.
00:37:34Sage's parents are pretty hands-off.
00:37:36She makes her own decisions.
00:37:37As long as she sends them an email, they're happy.
00:37:39That's true.
00:37:40Wealthy families are different about those things.
00:37:44Jasper, this was a reckless stunt.
00:37:45Next time, you talk to us first.
00:37:48Understood?
00:37:49Well then, let's not waste any more time.
00:37:50The ceremony's about to start.
00:37:52Come with me.
00:37:53I'll get you ready.
00:37:55Hold on!
00:37:57Elena!
00:37:57She's lying.
00:37:58Every word of it.
00:38:01Mia, why would you say something like that?
00:38:04Mia, I know you've always had feelings for Jasper.
00:38:07But Sage is clearly a better match for him.
00:38:11Don't start trouble where there isn't any.
00:38:14Aunt Elena, I'm serious.
00:38:15I saw her with my own eyes this morning, coming out of some run-down hotel.
00:38:20She is not some wealthy hotel heiress.
00:38:31What kind of rich iris stays in a motel?
00:38:33Shouldn't she be living in one of her family's luxury hotels?
00:38:37Jasper, care to explain?
00:38:39If her family owns hotels, I were the two of you coming out of a dump like that.
00:38:44Jasper's been conned.
00:38:46She saw a handsome guy from a family that owns a successful restaurant and decided to
00:38:50scam her way into your lives.
00:38:52That's not true!
00:38:53Sage isn't a scammer!
00:38:55She was there because...
00:38:56Because...
00:38:57Because my family's hotels are exclusive resorts on private islands.
00:39:02We don't operate properties on the mainland.
00:39:05Hotels on private islands?
00:39:07How luxurious is that?
00:39:10Nothing extravagant.
00:39:11Just over 500 properties worldwide.
00:39:13The brand is called Home.
00:39:15If you'd like, I can arrange membership cards for everyone.
00:39:17Home?
00:39:18That's the Culinary Legends Company.
00:39:21Are you trying to get me killed?
00:39:22I told you to pretend to be rich, not pretend to be the Culinary Legend.
00:39:26See?
00:39:28I told you!
00:39:29She's a fraud!
00:39:30Home was founded by the Culinary Legend herself, and this woman is actually claiming it belongs
00:39:36to her family!
00:39:37That's unbelievable.
00:39:38Who tells lies that ridiculous?
00:39:40What a fraud.
00:39:41Does she really think anyone can pretend to be the Culinary Legend?
00:39:44Jasper, have you been lying to your father and me?
00:39:47No, I'm not.
00:39:48Jasper, the truth.
00:39:50Right now, who exactly is this woman?
00:39:54Mom, Dad, her family really is in the hotel business, just not home.
00:39:59She was joking, that's all, just making a joke.
00:40:01Grandma, you've always wanted to see me get married, right?
00:40:04Let us do it today, right here, with you watching.
00:40:08Wait, we're not done here.
00:40:09Mia, what exactly are you trying to do?
00:40:11Are you deliberately trying to ruin this?
00:40:13Jasper, I'm not trying to cause trouble.
00:40:14I just don't want Aunt Elena and the rest of the family being lied to.
00:40:17Mia, what are you saying?
00:40:19Aunt Elena, doesn't this strike you as strange?
00:40:20For years, Jasper has been obsessed with the Culinary Legend.
00:40:23He's always said that if he couldn't marry her, anyone else would just be settling.
00:40:27So how does he suddenly meet the love of his life and call off an engagement over her?
00:40:33Jasper, you didn't hire someone to pretend to be your bride just to get out of this marriage, did you?
00:40:39No way, that's insane.
00:40:41That can't be true.
00:40:43Jasper would never lie to me.
00:40:45Jasper, answer me.
00:40:46Is this woman a fake bride you hired to deceive your grandmother?
00:40:50Dad, Grandma, don't listen to her.
00:40:52Stop making things up.
00:40:53Am I?
00:40:54Since the moment they got here, they've done everything they can to keep their distance.
00:40:57Other than holding hands, they haven't acted like a couple once.
00:41:00No chemistry, no affection.
00:41:03They don't look like two people about to get married.
00:41:05Because it's all fake!
00:41:08Oh, you want affection?
00:41:10Fine, we'll give you affection.
00:41:13Here, sweetheart.
00:41:15Have something sweet and let me steal a taste.
00:41:38Why do her eyes feel so familiar?
00:41:40I told you, my grandson would never lie to me.
00:41:43Look at them.
00:41:44They're perfect together.
00:41:46You're the first man who's ever had the nerve to kiss me like that.
00:41:52Happy now?
00:41:53How does it feel watching the man you like kiss somebody else?
00:41:57Mr. Vance!
00:41:59Looks like quite the celebration you've got going on.
00:42:02That's Cyrus Potter.
00:42:03Daisy's father, the biggest name in the restaurant business in the state.
00:42:06And that kid with him, isn't that Senator Bruce's only son?
00:42:10Jasper just dumped his daughter.
00:42:12There's no way he's here for anything good.
00:42:22Mr. Potter, I owe you an apology.
00:42:27What Jasper did to your daughter was wrong.
00:42:30And I'm truly sorry.
00:42:32Forget the engagement.
00:42:34I heard your restaurant has a secret sauce.
00:42:36So good it can make anyone hungry.
00:42:39Senator Bruce asked me to bring young Master Leo here to try it.
00:42:42If you can get him to eat, there'll be a very generous reward.
00:42:45If you can't, then maybe this restaurant doesn't deserve to stay in business.
00:42:50Mr. Potter, we do have the sauce.
00:42:52But I've injured my wrist recently.
00:42:53And young Master Leo's condition is...
00:42:55So you're saying you can't meet a customer's needs?
00:42:58A restaurant that can't serve its guests has no business staying open.
00:43:02Perhaps I should recommend the Senator shut this place down.
00:43:05No.
00:43:05Everybody knows Senator Bruce's son suffers from severe anorexia.
00:43:09World-class chefs have tried and failed to get him to eat.
00:43:11The only person who ever succeeded was the culinary legend,
00:43:14and the Senator paid a hundred million dollars for that meal.
00:43:17You're not here for dinner.
00:43:19You're here to destroy us.
00:43:23That's right.
00:43:25You had the nerve to dump my daughter.
00:43:27Now you get to watch your whole family lose everything.
00:43:32Vance Restaurant is unable to serve its customers.
00:43:35That's grounds for closure.
00:43:37Tear it apart.
00:43:40Stop.
00:43:46What?
00:43:46Has Vance Restaurant fallen so low that it needs a woman to fight its battles?
00:43:51There she goes again.
00:43:53Always desperate for attention.
00:43:56What are you doing?
00:43:58This is my family's problem, not yours.
00:44:01Stay behind me.
00:44:03No one's ever tried to protect me before.
00:44:06You want payback for your daughter?
00:44:07Fine.
00:44:08This is all on me.
00:44:09Do whatever you want of me.
00:44:10Just leave my family out of it.
00:44:13Brave little fool.
00:44:16If you want to go down first, be my guest.
00:44:21Nobody lays a hand on my son.
00:44:23I will make something Master Leo enjoys.
00:44:26Until then, you don't touch a single member of my family,
00:44:29and you don't damage a single thing in my restaurant.
00:44:32They haven't even had a chance to cook yet.
00:44:34How can you shut them down already?
00:44:35He's not even trying to hide it.
00:44:37This is obviously a setup.
00:44:38Fine.
00:44:39But if you fail,
00:44:41don't blame me when I shut this place down on the spot.
00:44:52Let's see if you've got anything that can compete with the culinary legend.
00:45:14Let's see if you've got anything that can compete with the culinary legend.
00:45:14Please, give it a try.
00:45:27Oh my god, he ate it!
00:45:29Master Leo won't even touch food he doesn't like,
00:45:32but Chef Rowan actually got him to take a bite!
00:45:36Honey, you did it!
00:45:40Sage, what is it?
00:45:42The sauce is good.
00:45:44But the dish still isn't reaching its full potential.
00:45:47Are you saying my dish isn't good enough?
00:45:50Can you stop pretending you're some kind of expert?
00:45:53If there was something wrong with the dish,
00:45:55why would Master Leo eat it?
00:45:57Do you think we're all idiots?
00:46:10That's disgusting!
00:46:11Why would you serve me this?
00:46:14What?
00:46:15No way!
00:46:16She was right.
00:46:17She actually called it.
00:46:19Ha ha ha ha!
00:46:20Vance Restaurant has failed to satisfy its customer.
00:46:24Clearly unfit to operate.
00:46:26As the senator's representative.
00:46:28I'm shutting this place down immediately!
00:46:31Wait!
00:46:33Who says nobody in the Vance family can make something he'll eat?
00:46:38You're supposed to be some rich heiress since when do rich girls know how to cook?
00:46:43Stop making things worse.
00:46:45Ha!
00:46:46Rowan, have you really run out of options?
00:46:49You're actually hiding behind a woman now?
00:46:52Sage, stop.
00:46:53Be serious.
00:46:54You don't know how to cook.
00:46:56He doesn't need food.
00:46:58He needs a taste that reminds him what hunger feels like.
00:47:01A taste that wakes his appetite back up.
00:47:04And there's only one person in the world who knows how to do that.
00:47:07And it's me.
00:47:12Do you trust me?
00:47:13There's something about her.
00:47:15Something that makes you want to believe.
00:47:17Fine.
00:47:18One last chance.
00:47:20I want a dish on that table in ten minutes.
00:47:23And nobody helps her.
00:47:24Ten minutes?
00:47:25It takes five minutes just to prep the ingredients.
00:47:28Nobody can make a proper dish in ten.
00:47:30You've got one shot.
00:47:32Of course, you're welcome to give up now.
00:47:35You!
00:47:37Fine.
00:47:37But ten minutes is excessive.
00:47:39Give me three.
00:47:41Three minutes?
00:47:42Sage, this is no time for jokes.
00:47:45You can't even prep the ingredients in three minutes.
00:47:47If she wants to embarrass herself, who am I to stop her?
00:47:50Three minutes it is.
00:47:51Jasper, your fiancé has completely lost her mind.
00:47:55Are you sure about this?
00:47:57Three minutes isn't enough time.
00:47:59For someone else, maybe.
00:48:00Not for me.
00:48:17She carries Shep's tools with her everywhere?
00:48:20She carries Shep's tools with her everywhere?
00:48:27Go ahead.
00:48:28Let's see what miracle you think you can pull off in three minutes.
00:48:33Go show them what you've got.
00:48:54How far along is she?
00:48:56Why is it so quiet?
00:48:57Maybe she realized she's in over her head and is back there crying.
00:49:1330 seconds.
00:49:14That's all you've got left.
00:49:16Jasper, I told you she couldn't do it!
00:49:18Mia, are you actually rooting for my family's restaurant to fail?
00:49:22That's not what I meant.
00:49:31What is that smell?
00:49:33I've never smelled anything like it before.
00:49:36Oh my god.
00:49:38I'm actually drooling.
00:49:39She cooked with oil, yet there's not a trace of smoke.
00:49:42Just the pure aroma of vegetables and meat.
00:49:44This is the pinnacle of the craft.
00:49:46The level only the culinary legend is supposed to reach.
00:49:49Jasper.
00:49:51Who exactly did you bring home?
00:49:5410 seconds!
00:49:55If she doesn't put a dish on that table, I'm shutting this place down!
00:50:08Please, enjoy.
00:50:17That's...that's impossible!
00:50:30The game now begins!
00:50:33The game now begins!
00:50:51The game now begins!
00:50:52The game now begins!
00:51:10Congratulations to Sage Bennett on her historic fifth consecutive World Culinary Championship.
00:51:17The only chef ever to claim the title five years in a row.
00:51:30And today, the home group, the restaurant and hospitality empire Sage Bennett founded, has officially been ranked number one in
00:51:39the world.
00:51:39She's not just a culinary legend now, she's the queen of hospitality.
00:51:45Boss, the tethered clothes you asked for are ready.
00:51:52For years, I've given to others anonymously.
00:51:55But today, I'm looking for someone with genuine character.
00:51:58Someone worthy of becoming a partner in my top restaurant.
00:52:02The first person to offer me food gets a ten million dollar investment.
00:52:06Please, could someone spare a little food?
00:52:10Wait! Don't go over there!
00:52:12What's wrong, babe?
00:52:13That bum over there went to high school with me.
00:52:16If she spots me, she'll probably start begging me for money.
00:52:20Let's take a side street.
00:52:22Wait, you mean Sage? That's really her?
00:52:25You know her?
00:52:26She's my ex.
00:52:27We broke up when she left town for work.
00:52:29Wow, I never thought she'd end up on the street.
00:52:32I've gotta record this.
00:52:34Come on, if people find out a successful restaurant owner like me went to school with her, it'll screw up
00:52:39my image!
00:52:41Molly, that franchise you're so proud of only exists because I gave it to you.
00:52:46Please, could someone...
00:52:48Is there really no one out here worth believing in?
00:52:51Is there really no one out here worth believing in?
00:52:53I don't know.
00:53:11Why don't you stay around?
00:53:11Are you all right?
00:53:16Jasper, why are you standing around?
00:53:19With some filthy hobo?
00:53:22You gave my bread to her?
00:53:24Your bread?
00:53:25I bought it, and you said you didn't want it.
00:53:29Even if I don't want it,
00:53:31it shouldn't be wasted on a sewer rat like her.
00:53:36She belongs on the ground picking up scraps.
00:53:39Daisy, that's enough!
00:53:40I'm your fiancé, and you're taking some random bum side over me?
00:53:45If you still want to marry me, then make her get lost.
00:53:48Right now.
00:53:50Well, I guess the wedding's off.
00:53:52What did you just say?
00:53:53You're calling off our engagement over some homeless freak?
00:53:56Do you have any idea what my father could do to her?
00:53:59Leave her out of this, Daisy.
00:54:01I made this decision a long time ago.
00:54:03Our engagement was nothing more than a family arrangement.
00:54:06You were never the woman I wanted to marry.
00:54:08My wife won't be someone who looks down on those with less than her.
00:54:11Someone who treats cruelty like a virtue.
00:54:14You bastard!
00:54:16How dare you!
00:54:17Your family's restaurant is already drowning financially.
00:54:20Without my father's investment, it'll be out of business in no time!
00:54:23Your father only angled for this marriage because he's after my family's recipes.
00:54:26And let me make this clear, even if we're struggling, our restaurant isn't something he can just take away.
00:54:35You're gonna regret this!
00:54:39Dad, Jasper just called off our engagement!
00:54:42Buy out his family's restaurant now!
00:54:43I want you to strip him of everything!
00:54:54I'm sorry you got dragged into all this.
00:54:56Please, take the money.
00:54:58At least let me buy you a decent meal.
00:55:00No, I don't want all that money.
00:55:03Just a burger.
00:55:04Lady, that money could buy ten burgers!
00:55:07I only want one burger.
00:55:09Fresh off the grill.
00:55:10Still hot.
00:55:16Here you go.
00:55:17Hope it's what you wanted.
00:55:26Easy there.
00:55:27Take your time.
00:55:28And please, keep the money.
00:55:30It'll buy you plenty more burgers.
00:55:33You're a good man.
00:55:35It's nothing.
00:55:36His kindness, it's genuine.
00:55:40Then let me thank you properly.
00:55:43An exclusive $10 billion investment contract from Home Group?
00:55:47Covering the entire state?
00:55:50Nice try, but I'm not falling for this.
00:55:52You should take it back.
00:55:54Why would I be joking?
00:55:55My cousin works at Home Group.
00:55:57A contract like this can only be signed by the founder herself, the culinary legend.
00:56:01What, don't tell me you're actually her?
00:56:03Well, you know what, never mind.
00:56:06If you don't believe me, then tell me what else you want.
00:56:08Whatever it is, I'll make it happen.
00:56:10Something else?
00:56:11No, that's really not.
00:56:16Jasper, everything's ready here.
00:56:17When are you and Daisy getting back?
00:56:19Mom, Daisy and I, we've run into a bit of a situation.
00:56:22A situation?
00:56:23Did you two have a fight?
00:56:24Jasper, go make things right.
00:56:26Our restaurant is depending on the funding from this marriage.
00:56:28We cannot lose the bride.
00:56:29And we certainly can't survive the damage to our reputations if this goes south.
00:56:33Do you understand?
00:56:34Don't worry.
00:56:35I'll get you a bride.
00:56:37You said you'd make any wish I had come true?
00:56:39Yes.
00:56:41Anything.
00:56:42Then give me your hand.
00:56:51If you really want to thank me, then marry me.
00:56:56Marry you?
00:56:58No, I can't.
00:56:59My family's restaurant is in trouble, and my parents are hoping a marriage will bring in investors.
00:57:04But I refuse to treat my own future like a business deal.
00:57:07So, I'm asking you to pretend to be a wealthy bride and come home with me.
00:57:13Just to help me get through the wedding.
00:57:16That's...
00:57:16Don't worry.
00:57:17I'm not asking you to do it for free.
00:57:18I'll give you $500 a day.
00:57:20You earn some steady cash.
00:57:22My family calms down.
00:57:23What do you say?
00:57:25Perfect.
00:57:26It'll give me more time to see who he really is.
00:57:31Alright, you've got yourself a deal.
00:57:54Wow, you look incredible.
00:58:01So, want a kiss?
00:58:04Whoa, we're not even real husband and wife.
00:58:08You can't just start talking like that.
00:58:10Well, we could always make it real.
00:58:16I can't.
00:58:17I already have feelings for someone.
00:58:22It's her.
00:58:23The woman who won the World Culinary Championship at 18.
00:58:27Built home group into the greatest hospitality empire on Earth.
00:58:30And went on to dominate the competition year after year.
00:58:33The one and only culinary legend.
00:58:36She's the woman of my dreams.
00:58:38He's got a crush on me?
00:58:40That's unexpectedly adorable.
00:58:44So don't get any ideas.
00:58:46Maintain a safe distance.
00:58:48Otherwise, I'll have to revoke your fake bride privileges.
00:58:53Relax.
00:58:54You're not my type.
00:58:55Just make sure you don't fall for me first.
00:58:58Impossible.
00:59:00Impossible.
00:59:00My heart already belongs to the culinary legend.
00:59:05Stay here.
00:59:06I'm going to grab a few gifts for you to bring home.
00:59:08It'll help you make a good first impression on my family.
00:59:13Put together a gift package worth $50 million.
00:59:16Have it delivered to Vance Restaurant under Home Group's name.
00:59:21Right away, boss.
00:59:26Remember, if my parents ask what your family does, tell them your parents own a restaurant company.
00:59:34Annual revenue, let's see.
00:59:37Daisy's family makes about $5 million a year.
00:59:40So tell them yours makes $10 million.
00:59:42And you're okay with lying to them?
00:59:45My family's desperate for investment.
00:59:47The only way they'll accept a last-minute replacement fiancé is if they think she's an upgrade on paper.
00:59:53But that doesn't actually solve the problem.
00:59:55Your restaurant is still in trouble.
00:59:59It'll work out.
01:00:01My idol always says,
01:00:03The only strength that matters is your own.
01:00:06I've spent years building my startup.
01:00:09One day I'll solve my family's problems myself,
01:00:12Build a world-class restaurant and stand beside the culinary legend as her equal.
01:00:25Is Jasper back yet?
01:00:27Honestly, forcing him to marry that spoiled Daisy just to save the restaurant isn't fair to him.
01:00:33Mom, how can you say that?
01:00:35Daisy's family practically runs the restaurant industry in this state.
01:00:39Right. Marrying her brings a million dollars into our business.
01:00:43That's something to celebrate.
01:00:44Exactly. Jasper's 29. It's time he settled down.
01:00:48And I'm not handing over the family's secret sauce recipe until he does.
01:00:52Daisy Syrah's daughter, the biggest name in the local restaurant business.
01:00:55It's a good match. He's hardly suffering.
01:00:59What's so special about that rich girl?
01:01:01I should have been the one marrying Jasper.
01:01:05Dad, Mom, Grandma, we're here!
01:01:13Wait. Why isn't Daisy with you?
01:01:16Who is that?
01:01:20Jasper!
01:01:21What is the meaning of this? Where's Daisy?
01:01:24Mom, Dad, I called off the engagement.
01:01:27I don't love Daisy.
01:01:29Sage is the woman I want to marry.
01:01:30And today, that's exactly what I'm going to do.
01:01:34Have you lost your mind?
01:01:36Jasper, this is unbelievably irresponsible.
01:01:38Do you have any idea how badly we need Daisy's family's investment?
01:01:42If you alienate them, you could bankrupt this restaurant overnight.
01:01:45Enough.
01:01:47We've got a yard full of guests and a wedding ready to go.
01:01:50The least we can do is hear the boy out.
01:01:54Sage, go ahead and introduce yourself.
01:01:56Mr. Vance, Mrs. Vance, Grandmother, it's a pleasure to meet all of you.
01:02:01Where are you from?
01:02:02How many people are in your family?
01:02:04What do your parents do?
01:02:05And how much money do they make?
01:02:07We're from Houston.
01:02:08I'm an only child.
01:02:09My father owns a chain of restaurant hotels.
01:02:12And my mother is a homemaker.
01:02:14Annual family income, $10 million.
01:02:17$10 million a year?
01:02:19Daisy's family runs the biggest restaurant business around here and they only make five.
01:02:23This fiancé is the real deal.
01:02:24Well, isn't that wonderful?
01:02:26A restaurant family just like ours.
01:02:28I knew I liked you the moment I saw you.
01:02:31Called it.
01:02:37Sweetheart, where are your parents?
01:02:40It's your wedding day.
01:02:41Why aren't they here?
01:02:43My parents are overseas on business.
01:02:45They couldn't get away.
01:02:47Right.
01:02:47Sage's parents are pretty hands-off.
01:02:49She makes her own decisions.
01:02:50As long as she sends them an email, they're happy.
01:02:52That's true.
01:02:53Wealthy families are different about those things.
01:02:57Jasper, this was a reckless stunt.
01:02:59Next time, you talk to us first.
01:03:01Understood?
01:03:02Well then, let's not waste any more time.
01:03:04The ceremony's about to start.
01:03:05Come with me.
01:03:06I'll get you ready.
01:03:08Hold on!
01:03:10Elena!
01:03:10She's lying.
01:03:12Every word of it.
01:03:15Mia, why would you say something like that?
01:03:17Mia, I know you've always had feelings for Jasper.
01:03:21But Sage is clearly a better match for him.
01:03:24Don't start trouble where there isn't any.
01:03:27Aunt Elena, I'm serious.
01:03:28I saw her with my own eyes this morning coming out of some run-down hotel.
01:03:33She is not some wealthy hotel heiress.
01:03:44What kind of rich iris stays in a motel?
01:03:47Shouldn't she be living in one of her family's luxury hotels?
01:03:50Jasper, care to explain?
01:03:52If her family owns hotels, why were the two of you coming out of a dump like that?
01:03:58Jasper's been conned.
01:03:59She saw a handsome guy from a family that owns a successful restaurant and decided to
01:04:03scam her way into your lives.
01:04:05That's not true!
01:04:06Sage isn't a scammer!
01:04:08She was there because...
01:04:09Because...
01:04:10Because my family's hotels are exclusive resort on private islands.
01:04:15We don't operate properties on the mainland.
01:04:19Hotels on private islands?
01:04:20How luxurious is that?
01:04:23Nothing extravagant.
01:04:24Just over 500 properties worldwide.
01:04:26The brand is called Home.
01:04:27If you'd like, I can arrange membership cards for everyone.
01:04:30Home?
01:04:31That's the Culinary Legends Company.
01:04:34Are you trying to get me killed?
01:04:36I told you to pretend to be rich, not pretend to be the Culinary Legend.
01:04:40See?
01:04:41I told you!
01:04:42She's a fraud!
01:04:43Home was founded by the Culinary Legend herself,
01:04:46and this woman is actually claiming it belongs to her family!
01:04:50That's unbelievable.
01:04:51Who tells lies that ridiculous?
01:04:53What a fraud.
01:04:54Does she really think anyone can pretend to be the Culinary Legend?
01:04:57Jasper, have you been lying to your father and me?
01:05:00No, I'm not.
01:05:02Jasper, the truth.
01:05:03Right now, who exactly is this woman?
01:05:07Mom, Dad.
01:05:08Her family really is in the hotel business, just not home.
01:05:12She was joking, that's all.
01:05:13Just making a joke.
01:05:14Grandma, you've always wanted to see me get married, right?
01:05:17Let us do it today.
01:05:18Right here, with you watching.
01:05:20Wait!
01:05:21We're not done here.
01:05:22Mia, what exactly are you trying to do?
01:05:24Are you deliberately trying to ruin this?
01:05:26Jasper, I'm not trying to cause trouble.
01:05:27I just don't want Aunt Elena and the rest of the family being lied to.
01:05:30Mia, what are you saying?
01:05:32Aunt Elena, doesn't this strike you as strange?
01:05:34For years, Jasper has been obsessed with the Culinary Legend.
01:05:36He's always said that if he couldn't marry her, anyone else would just be settling.
01:05:41So how does he suddenly meet the love of his life and call off an engagement over her?
01:05:46Jasper, you didn't hire someone to pretend to be your bride just to get out of this marriage,
01:05:50did you?
01:05:52No way, that's insane.
01:05:54That can't be true.
01:05:56Jasper would never lie to me.
01:05:58Jasper, answer me.
01:05:59Is this woman a fake bride you hired to deceive your grandmother?
01:06:03Dad, Grandma, don't listen to her.
01:06:05Stop making things up.
01:06:06Am I?
01:06:06Since the moment they got here, they've done everything they can to keep their distance.
01:06:10Other than holding hands, they haven't acted like a couple once.
01:06:14No chemistry.
01:06:15No affection.
01:06:16They don't look like two people about to get married.
01:06:18Because it's all fake!
01:06:21Oh, you want affection?
01:06:23Fine.
01:06:23We'll give you affection.
01:06:26Here, sweetheart.
01:06:28Have something sweet.
01:06:29Let me steal a taste.
01:06:51Why do her eyes feel so familiar?
01:06:53I told you, my grandson would never lie to me.
01:06:56Look at them.
01:06:57They're perfect together.
01:06:59You're the first man who's ever had the nerve to kiss me like that.
01:07:05Happy now?
01:07:06How does it feel watching the man you like kiss somebody else?
01:07:10Mr. Vance!
01:07:12Looks like quite the celebration you've got going on.
01:07:15That's Cyrus Potter.
01:07:16Daisy's father, the biggest name in the restaurant business in the state.
01:07:19And that kid with him, isn't that Senator Bruce's only son?
01:07:23Jasper just dumped his daughter.
01:07:25There's no way he's here for anything good.
01:07:35Relax.
01:07:37Why so tense?
01:07:38Mr. Potter, I owe you an apology.
01:07:41What Jasper did to your daughter was wrong.
01:07:43And I'm truly sorry.
01:07:45Forget the engagement.
01:07:47I heard your restaurant has a secret sauce.
01:07:49So good it can make anyone hungry.
01:07:52Senator Bruce asked me to bring young Master Leo here to try it.
01:07:55If you can get him to eat, there'll be a very generous reward.
01:07:59If you can't, then maybe this restaurant doesn't deserve to stay in business.
01:08:03Mr. Potter, we do have the sauce.
01:08:05But I've injured my wrist recently.
01:08:06And young Master Leo's condition is...
01:08:08So you're saying you can't meet a customer's needs?
01:08:11A restaurant that can't serve its guests has no business staying open.
01:08:16Perhaps I should recommend the senator shut this place down.
01:08:18No!
01:08:18Everybody knows Senator Bruce's son suffers from severe anorexia.
01:08:22World-class chefs have tried and failed to get him to eat.
01:08:24The only person who ever succeeded was the culinary legend.
01:08:27And the senator paid a hundred million dollars for that meal.
01:08:30You're not here for dinner.
01:08:32You're here to destroy us.
01:08:37That's right.
01:08:38You had the nerve to dump my daughter.
01:08:40Now you get to watch your whole family lose everything.
01:08:45Vance Restaurant is unable to serve its customers.
01:08:48That's grounds for closure.
01:08:50Tear it apart.
01:08:53Stop.
01:08:59What?
01:09:00Has Vance Restaurant fallen so low that it needs a woman to fight its battles?
01:09:04There she goes again.
01:09:06Always desperate for attention.
01:09:09What are you doing?
01:09:11This is my family's problem, not yours.
01:09:14Stay behind me.
01:09:16No one's ever tried to protect me before.
01:09:19You want payback for your daughter?
01:09:20Fine.
01:09:21This is all on me.
01:09:22Do whatever you want of me.
01:09:23Just leave my family out of it.
01:09:26Brave little fool.
01:09:29If you want to go down first, be my guest.
01:09:34Nobody lays a hand on my son.
01:09:37I will make something Master Leo enjoys.
01:09:39Until then, you don't touch a single member of my family and you don't damage a single thing in my
01:09:44restaurant.
01:09:45They haven't even had a chance to cook yet.
01:09:47How can you shut them down already?
01:09:48He's not even trying to hide it.
01:09:50This is obviously a setup.
01:09:52Fine.
01:09:52But if you fail, don't blame me when I shut this place down on the spot.
01:10:05Let's see if you've got anything that can compete with the culinary legend.
01:10:28Please, give it a try.
01:10:40Oh my God, he ate it.
01:10:42Master Leo won't even touch food he doesn't like.
01:10:45But Chef Rowan actually got him to take a bite.
01:10:49Honey, you did it.
01:10:54Sage, what is it?
01:10:55The sauce is good.
01:10:57But the dish still isn't reaching its full potential.
01:11:00Are you saying my dish isn't good enough?
01:11:03Can you stop pretending you're some kind of expert?
01:11:06If there was something wrong with the dish, why would Master Leo eat it?
01:11:10Do you think we're all idiots?
01:11:23That's disgusting!
01:11:24Why would you serve me this?
01:11:27What?
01:11:28No way!
01:11:29She was right.
01:11:30She actually called it.
01:11:32Ha ha ha ha!
01:11:33Vance Restaurant has failed to satisfy its customer.
01:11:37Clearly unfit to operate.
01:11:39As the senator's representative.
01:11:41I'm shutting this place down immediately!
01:11:44Wait!
01:11:46Who says nobody in the Vance family can make something he'll eat?
01:11:51You're supposed to be some rich heiress.
01:11:54Since when do rich girls know how to cook?
01:11:57Stop making things worse.
01:11:58Ha!
01:11:59Rowan, have you really run out of options?
01:12:02You're actually hiding behind a woman now?
01:12:05Sage, stop.
01:12:06Be serious.
01:12:07You don't know how to cook.
01:12:09He doesn't need food.
01:12:11He needs a taste that reminds him what hunger feels like.
01:12:14A taste that wakes his appetite back up.
01:12:17And there's only one person in the world who knows how to do that.
01:12:21And it's me.
01:12:25Do you trust me?
01:12:27There's something about her.
01:12:28Something that makes you want to believe.
01:12:30Fine.
01:12:31One last chance.
01:12:33I want a dish on that table in ten minutes.
01:12:36And nobody helps her.
01:12:37Ten minutes?
01:12:38It takes five minutes just to prep the ingredients.
01:12:41Nobody can make a proper dish in ten.
01:12:43You've got one shot.
01:12:46Of course, you're welcome to give up now.
01:12:48You!
01:12:50Fine.
01:12:50But ten minutes is excessive.
01:12:53Give me three.
01:12:55Three minutes?
01:12:56Sage, this is no time for jokes!
01:12:58You can't even prep the ingredients in three minutes!
01:13:00If she wants to embarrass herself, who am I to stop her?
01:13:03Three minutes it is.
01:13:04Jasper, your fiancé has completely lost her mind!
01:13:08Are you sure about this?
01:13:10Three minutes isn't enough time.
01:13:12For someone else, maybe.
01:13:13Not for me.
01:13:15Not for me.
01:13:30She carries shepherds with her everywhere?
01:13:32She carries shepherds with her everywhere?
01:13:40Go ahead.
01:13:41Let's see what miracle you think you can pull off in three minutes.
01:13:46Go show them what you've got.
01:14:07How far along is she?
01:14:09Why is it so quiet?
01:14:10Maybe she realized she's in over her head and is back there crying.
01:14:26Thirty seconds.
01:14:28That's all you've got left.
01:14:29Jasper, I told you she couldn't do it!
01:14:31Mia, are you actually rooting for my family's restaurant to fail?
01:14:35That's not what I meant.
01:14:44What is that smell?
01:14:46I've never smelled anything like it before.
01:14:49Oh my god.
01:14:51I'm actually drooling.
01:14:53She cooked with oil, yet there's not a trace of smoke.
01:14:55Just the pure aroma of vegetables and meat.
01:14:57This is the pinnacle of the craft.
01:14:59The level only the culinary legend is supposed to reach.
01:15:02Jasper.
01:15:04Who exactly did you bring home?
01:15:07Ten seconds!
01:15:09If she doesn't put a dish on that table, I'm shutting this place down!
01:15:21Please, enjoy.
01:15:30That's...that's impossible!
01:15:35That's the first one.
01:15:38You
