-It's a full house!
-You don't say?

OK, let's stay focused.

We won't let one
mediocre review distract us.

-Yes, chef.
-How are we doing back here?

Good...

We're going for intriguingly
gelatinous.

Not hospital food.
Let's use another plate, please.

We're doing great,
Shouldn't you be out front?

Front of house's handled.

-You worry about back here.
-You know I don't worry.

Nathaniel just arrived, again.

-Have you spoken to him yet?
-When would I have time?

Watch the gauges Shannon,
we want it to simmer.

Molly can watch
the kitchen

if you want to go and say hi.

Uh...

I'll call him later.

28 is ready for their dessert.

OK.

No, Molly, it's more like this.

Smoke, please?

Beautiful.

-[man] You look amazing.
-[woman] Thank you.

[indistinct chatter]

Oh my god!

Will you make me
the happiest man?

Yes, of course I will!

[applause]

[woman's laughter]

She didn't even smell the scent.

[clears throat]

-[sighs]
-Fun night, tonight?

You know, I spent weeks
perfecting that scent,

and she missed it entirely.

Really, it's the scent
that's upsetting you?

Mom, I don't have time
for romance.

I spend every waking minute
in this kitchen.

I've noticed.

When will you talk
to Nathaniel?

Later.

Can you make later sooner?

It's really starting
to get out of hand.

You know, Laboratoire
is never going to survive

with these reviews.

It's nothing that
a Mondial star can't fix.

And the inspector's
already scheduled.

I should've never
taken that day off last month.

-Maybe if I can get the team...
-Just breathe.

Did you order something
from Australia?

No.

Wow!

How do you feel about expanding
to Australia?

You've just inherited
Aunt Doreen's cafe.

The Seagull Cafe
in Lemon Myrtle Cove?

I was wondering what would
happen to that place

after she passed away
last year.

This is incredibly generous,

but I haven't seen her
since I was 10.

She was so proud of you.
Another chef in the family.

There's a big difference
between

texture degustations
and 2-for-1 burgers.

Aunt D didn't see it that way.

Well regardless,
I can't keep it.

-It's hard enough running this.
-Yeah, you're telling me.

I wish we could have gone
to her funeral last year.

I know, sweetheart.

Aunt D would have understood.

I know.

But this is the last
of her legacy, isn't it?

Are you thinking you might go?

[sighs] Not with the inspector coming.

Maybe that's why you should go.

I mean, we have a month
to shape things up.

This trip could give you
the space to clear your head,

maybe even open you up
to a little inspiration.

Who will run the kitchen?

-Surely...
-Molly will be just fine.

And you won't be gone long.

-[scoffs]
-Yeah.

[laughs]

-[laughs] [knocks]
-Nathaniel!

Were you waiting?

No, I was just having drinks
around the corner.

You're really building
quite the place here.

I'm happy you approve now.

Come on.

You had very different things
to say when we first opened.

When you walked out on me,
on us.

I was young and stupid.

I'm sorry I didn't see
your vision then.

And I miss you.

Let's grab a drink.

I can't tonight.

I have to go to Australia
for some family business, so...

Catch up
when I'm back?

Australia?

OK...

We'll talk when you're back.

OK.

Thank you.

[dog barks]

Oh, hey, there!

Do you come with this place?

Hi!

Whoa, there!

[laughs] We just met!

And I don't kiss
on the first date.

Plus, I just got off
a very long flight

and I definitely need a shower.

So, what do you know about
the guy who owns this place?

I'm supposed to check
in with him.

Oh, is he as adorable
as you are?

-I doubt it.
-Oh!

Hi, I'm Simon,
the guy who owns this place.

That's my buddy, Spatch.

Caroline, it's nice to meet you.

You too.

So what brings you
to Lemon Myrtle Cove?

-Uh... Business.
-You don't get much of that here.

The cottage is lovely.

Thanks, last year I fixed it up,

so...

-If you have any problems...
-I know who to blame!

Well, you could try calling me
first.

Let me help
with your bags.

Oh, no, no, that's OK.
I've got it.

-You sure?
-Yep.

OK, well here's your key.

Oh, great.

Beach is five minutes that way,
town's even closer.

Extra towels
are in the hall closet.

And if you need me, well,
you've got my number.

Alright, well,
I'll see you around.

I guess you will.

[dog barks]
Come on, Spatch!

[dog barks]
Oh!

Guess I'll see you around.

[under her breath] OK...

[calming sigh]

Welcome to the Seagull.

Today's special
is barbecue snags.

Sorry, snags?

Is that a fish?

No, snags!

You know, sausages.

Like a banger sanga.

Salty sausage sandwich
with grilled onions. Cook's specialty.

I'll have one of those.

I'll also have an order
of fish and chips, a meat pie

slice of the pavlova
and a lamington, please?

You're hungry.

I just flew in from the States.

Really?
Why Lemon Myrtle Cove?

Uh... Business.

Not much of that around here.

So I've heard!

I'm sorry,
but you look familiar.

I...

Have one of those faces,
I guess.

I'll also have some
Vegemite on toast.

-And a Vegemite.
-Yeah.

Anything else?

[laughter]
Thank you!

All of Lemon Myrtle Cove's
finest foods, eh?

I'm doing some research.

I have a restaurant
in New York,

and I'm looking
for some inspiration.

And?

It's all reasonably good.

But... uh...

The fish and chips
are under-seasoned.

The meat pie is over-baked,
and the salty snags are well...

-Salty?
-Yeah.

-And don't get me started on this.
-You only need a tiny...

I just think that the menu

could use a little bit
of tweaking.

Oh, well maybe you should
talk to the cook.

Do you know him?

Is he as rusty as his recipes?

Hey!
Order up, Cook.

Actually,
I hear he's quite decent.

But,
not as adorable as his dog.

I'm sorry...

Did you hear me?
Or do I to do your job, too?

No, no, please go on.

No, that's it.
It's great.

And I think they need you, so...

Yeah, well, someone's
gotta over-bake the pies.

Excuse me?

-Can I get some to-go boxes?
-Sure.

[blows a raspberry]

[knocking at the door]
[Dale] It's Dale!

It's open, come in!

-Dale?
-Caroline?

Lovely to meet you in person.

So, how was your voyage over?

Long. [laughs]

-Please, take a seat.
-Oh, thank you.

[sighs] Before we get down
to official business,

I just wanted to pass
on my condolences.

Doreen was much loved.

You must be missing her greatly.

She talked about you all the time.

She was so proud.

Thank you.
That's nice to hear.

Sorry, I don't wish
to wax sentimental.

But I know you plan to sell
the cafe.

Unfortunately,
as soon as possible.

Did the realtor call you?

Ah, yes.

She asked me to handle things
while she was out of town,

so... um...

If that works for you?

-Of course!
-Great, OK.

Well it appears she may have
found a potential buyer.

Oh.

A developer who's interested
in developing a chain

of racing car
themed restaurants.

The one with cars for booths
and flags on the wall?

No other options?

Believe me, I tried.

Look, I know it's not ideal,
but if you want a fast sale,

this is your best bet.

Well as long as they're not
knocking the whole place down.

So, that's a yes?

-Yes.
-Oh, great.

I hoped you'd say that

so I had a building inspector
look at the cafe yesterday.

And unfortunately,

there are some issues
needing to be addressed.

Oh, what exactly?

Well, the shelving,
it needs fixing.

There was a dishwasher, I think
it needs a bit of a tune.

The exhaust, there was some
sort of problem there.

And the whole roof,
it needs re-sheeting.

Can't the new owner handle it?

Well, we could ask,

but we might
lose their interest.

But you'll recoup all the money
anyway, so...

Look, it's just going
to take a bit of time.

Do you have a list
of contractors?

I'll get some quotes
and then I need to go back.

OK, alright.

Well why don't I arrange for us

to talk to the cafe staff
this afternoon?

In the meantime, let's make
a start on the paperwork.

[sighs]

[cellphone ringing]

-Hey, Sweetheart.
-Hey, Mom!

How's it going?
What's happening over there?

Oh, look, we're doing great!

How's it going over there?

Well, the realtor found
a potential buyer,

and they want to get moving.

Oh, that's great.

But, really fast.

Are you absolutely sure
you want to sell?

Without a cloning machine,
I don't see how I can run both.

I know.

And you won't believe this,
my landlord is also the cook.

[laughs]

Exactly.

And by that look,
I'm guessing he's cute?

Now we're talking!

Have yourself
a seaside romance.

Unlikely.

By the way, Nathaniel
wants to know

when you'll be back.

I told him to call you,
I'm not getting involved.

Anyway, how's this week's
dessert going?

Make sure Molly double checks
the berries and...

Oh, look, I gotta go.

Guests have just arrived.

-Late diners, I guess.
-We haven't even talked about...

Gotta go! Bye!

-Hi.
-You ready?

As I'll ever be.

Good afternoon, Dale.

You're looking
very smart today.

[laughs] Thank you, Marla.

You're looking lovely,
as always.

[clears throat]

Sorry.

Everybody ready
for our talk?

Well, everyone should be.
[laughs]

[whistles]
Bring it in everyone!

Dale's got something to say!

[laughs nervously]

Well...

Thank you all
for allowing us

to interrupt your clean-up.

I know the Seagull's
been through changes

in this past year.

-And I really...
-Hurry it up, Dale.

If I'm going to get home
in time for 'Neighbours'.

[laughs]
Sorry.

Thanks, Marla.

I wanted to introduce you
to Caroline Wilson.

Caroline is Doreen's
great-niece.

That's who you look like.

Hi, it's nice to meet you all,
properly.

Caroline,
New York City Caroline?

Mm-hm.

Why didn't you tell us before?

Doreen talked
about you all the time.

Yeah, she'd rattle on
about you and the science lab.

Laboratoire.

No, that's not it.

No...

Um...

My restaurant is why
I need to talk to you all.

Sadly, I need to get back
to New York as soon as possible.

So I've decided
to sell The Seagull.

-[Marla] What?
-[Simon] Hang on.

[expressions of dismay]

The realtor already found
a potential buyer,

a developer
with plans to remodel.

Are you shutting us down?

No...

I plan to stay open
until the sale.

And then after the sale?

That's up to the owner.

What they do,
and who they keep on.

Do you really think that's what
Doreen would've wanted?

I'm sorry.

It's the only thing
I can do.

I... um...

If you have any questions,

Dale should be able to answer them.

Once again, I'm so sorry.

Caroline, are you alright?

-It was harder than expected.
-Yeah.

Well they're very attached
to the place.

Do you think the new owner
will take them?

Hard to tell.

Do you mind handling
their questions?

It's been a long day.

Yeah, of course.

Do you have that list
of local contractors?

Uh... Yes.

-Do you mind if we talk outside?
-No.

-That snake!
-He's only doing his job.

And probably destroying ours.

I mean, how could he?

-How long do you think it'll take?
-I don't know.

We have to do something.

I mean, The Seagull
is the heart of this town.

And I'm not going back
to working on the farm.

Cook, you talk to her.

And say what?

Well, I don't know!

Say what this place means to us,
what it means to the town.

What it meant to Doreen.

[Caroline]
End of summer?

Isn't there any way...

No, I understand.

No, that's OK.

Thanks.

[Cook] See you, Jimmy!
Say hi to Susan for me.

[Jimmy] See you, Cook!

[gasps]

[clears throat]

-Hey.
-You got your hands full.

I figured I should test out
some local ingredients.

Ah, of course!
How's the inspiration?

If you want, I can show you
some of Doreen's recipes?

I know what we serve at The Seagull
isn't your style, but,

I thought you'd want to know

a bit more about Doreen's dream
before you say goodbye to it.

Thanks, but no thanks.

[cellphone ringing]
Oh!

Hello!

Yes, this is the new owner
of The Seagull Cafe.

You just retired?

Today?

OK, thanks, anyway.

That's him?

Tough time of year.

Everyone seems fully booked
or magically unavailable.

Discovered this one, yet?

Uh... That's...

Lemon Myrtle.

You can't beat it fresh.

What?

Could you fix The Seagull?

Me?
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

Thanks, but no thanks.

Come on, you know it
inside and out.

And you just fixed the cottage.
Please?

I'm desperate, otherwise
I wouldn't be asking you.

-Oh, thank you.
-Sorry, that's not what I mean.

I fixed up the cottage
to save it.

Not sell it. There's a big difference.

I'm sorry.

I know how much The Seagull
means to you.

To all of you.

Fixing it up and selling it
is the best chance we have

of keeping it going somehow.

I wish I could keep it.

But I can't.

It's a very big project.

I know.

And I don't have
a lot of savings,

but I think I can cover it.

So just...
Throw out a number.

-Alright, for the cost of materials +10%.
-Really?

But, if I'll be fixing
the place up,

I'll need your help cooking.

Sorry, but I don't...

If you can't handle it...

[scoffs]

You got yourself a deal.

Done! Meet at the front tomorrow at 4am.

Excuse me?

That's 1pm in New York?
You can't of already adjusted?

But 4am...

Looking forward to it.

[under her breath] Yes!

OK...

-What are you wearing?
-What are you wearing?

Guess we're not starting
in the kitchen?

Nope.

Uh, Spatch didn't want to come?

He likes to sleep in.

Take these.

OK.

So, I just follow you, or?

[Caroline] OK.

I forgot how beautiful
it is here.

-Coffee?
-Oh, you read my mind.

Thank you.

Mmm.

So, your last name
is actually Cook?

-Yep.
-[laughs]

Well you and cooking
were clearly meant to be.

For the time being, anyway.

OK...

Oh.

I think I've got something!

-Wait up, wait up.
-Oh, I definitely did.

-Calm down.
-What do I do?

-OK, this way, take it slow.
-Yep.

I wonder what
they're feeding the worms

at the bait shop.

Do you get crocodiles here?

-Nah, just medium-sized ones.
-What?

-Relax...
-OK.

-Don't rush it.
-OK.

-Oh!
-There we go!

-[laughs]
-I was wondering where I left that.

Is that a hat?

Very good!

[laughs]

This is my first Aussie catch,
can you take a picture?

-OK.
-OK.

[camera sounds]

Very good.

Oh, and let's take one together.

Sure.

[camera sounds]

Maybe we should catch something
we can actually serve.

Yeah.

Yeah.

-OK...
-I'll just take this off.

-Well?
-Mmm.

That is so fresh.

-Hmm!
-Can you run the fryer while I start?

I think I can handle that.

Hey, nice strategy, Cook.

Sorry, what strategy?

With Caroline.

I don't usually
ask for directions, but I'm lost.

Wooing her
to save The Seagull.

Oh, Marla...

Never thought
you were that clever, Cook...

You never thought I...

Marla,
I'm not wooing Caroline.

I get it.

Marla!

[fryer bubbling]

[restaurant chatter]

[egg sizzling]

[Beth] Hey.

-How was your first day as fry-cook?
-Busy.

But actually not my first time.

Really?

Yeah, I started as a fry-cook
in a place kinda like this.

Three days a week,

and then I worked my way
up to head fry-cook

just before I left
for Culinary School.

Sounds perfect.

Maybe I'll try
with the next owner.

-I didn't know you like to cook?
-I mean, I like to experiment.

Cook calls it...

Beth's baffling bounty!

Yeah, that one.

If you ever try

a pickled paw paw
pillow bread,

you might want
to politely decline.

At least I try new things.

Oh...
[laughs]

What did you do
to my kitchen?

I just did a little organizing.

Don't worry, everything is
still in the same place...

Sort of.

The exhaust fan looks good.

Yeah, pretty happy
with it.

I made a start on the shelves

and ordered roofing materials.

-We're on schedule?
-So far so good.

Should have you back
by the end of next week.

Thank you.

-I'd better clean up.
-Yeah.

Hey....

How did you come up
with pillow bread?

Sometimes I get a bit
carried away.

Well maybe you need
a cooking partner.

Not many of those around here.

What are you doing tonight?

I need to prep
for book club tomorrow.

We're discussing
Toni Morrison's 'Beloved'.

Well, you're going to need
snacks.

So, why don't we make something?

-Really?
-Yeah.

OK.

You're cooler
than I thought you were.

-No offense.
-None taken.

[cellphone ringing]

[knocking at the door]
Back here!

-Hey!
-Hey!

Thanks for this.

Oh, not at all!

What did you have in mind?

Maybe a cake or a slice?

Have you ever made macarons?

No.

Well, they are colorful
and technical.

But, delicate and sweet.

-Sounds great!
-OK.

Alright...

Where do I start?

Sift the dry ingredients together.

OK.
There you go.

Actually, you just need to...

Sorry, go ahead.
[laughs]

Carefully measure
the ingredients.

Macarons are temperamental

if the mix isn't exactly right.

I know the feeling.

So, what got you into cooking?

Well, it was just me
and my dad growing up.

And he isn't much of a foodie,
so I learned the basics pretty early.

I'd add whatever
was in the fridge,

or some herbs from the garden.

Sometimes Doreen gave me
bits from The Seagull.

What about you?

When you're done,
separate these carefully.

When I was little,

my mom used to bring me here
every summer.

And Doreen would let me
help in the kitchen.

It always smelled so good.

Oh, watch for those egg shells.
[laughter]

Whoops.

So what ingredients
did you pick up?

Some lemon Myrtle,
desert limes,

Saltbush,
and some pilly lilly berries.

They're lilly pilly.
[laughs]

Oh.

And they're good,
but tart.

So were you thinking
of a meat rub, or a cake?

Or even a combo?

I don't know yet.

If these are good,
I could make some for Doreen's party.

Party?

Oh, yeah...

Every summer Doreen threw
a party on the pier.

So we're continuing
the tradition.

Dale didn't say?

No.

But that sounds lovely.

It's this weekend.

You should make something.

I don't know.
I...

If you're done, whisk the whites
into soft peaks.

Well, either way,
you have to come.

[laughs]

[whisking]

[sighs]

Stupid jet lag.

Hmm.

[water dripping]

Ah!
For the love of...

[smoke alarm sounds]

[stressed] Oh!

Shoot!
[coughs]

[scoffs]

[smoke alarm sounding]

Come on!

Shh!
Shh!

Hey, stop it!

[dog barking in distance]

[smoke alarm sounding off
in distance]

Shh!

-Hey!
-[startled] Oh!

Oh! Just you!

Ouch.

I mean, you scared me
half to death.

Well I heard the alarm.
Sorry for the concern.

Pretty big midnight snack, there.

I'm experimenting.

I'm failing at converting
to Celsius.

Ah.

That oven can be a bit touchy.

Any luck?

Number three's OK.

I just can't get the balance right.

-May I?
-Sure.

Hmm.

You got too much
going on there.

Lilly pilly
speaks for itself.

It doesn't need any fancy extras.

I'm not going for fancy extras.

You gotta think about
flavor profiles.

Textures, layering.

You can't put a bunch of
ingredients together...

Well, sometimes less is more.

Hmm.

Yeah, I'm not sure.

[laughs]

What?

You can say I was right.

[laughs]

Fine.

You were right.

Once!

So, what are you doing up
so late?

Just fixing the dishwasher.

Thank you.

Do you think you can fix
the front counter?

It's just a little bit...

But I've still got to do
the roof!

Which I can't start
until next week.

Next week?

Sorry, did you want your
other contractor to handle it?

It's fine.
Next week is fine.

Hey, I was thinking...

Once the repairs are done...

[cellphone rings]

Uh...

You don't want to answer that?

-No, no.
-So what were you saying?

But something
could be up at the restaurant.

Hi, mom.

Hey, honey.

Is everything OK?
It's one o'clock...

Oh, sorry,
are you mid lunch rush?

In the morning.

Mom, one o'clock in the morning.

Why are you awake?

Well I was baking.

[whispers] I'm going to go.

Are you with someone?

Is it that handsome cook?

Hi, Mrs Wilson!

I'm Simon.

Cook.

Hi, Simon.

Nice to meet you.

You two are up late.

Caroline was trying
to burn down my cottage, so...

And Cook was just leaving, so...

I was.
It was nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too, Cook.

-Good night.
-Good night.

Enjoy the baking.

Mom!

The cottage isn't the only
thing you were setting on fire.

Mom!

So what's going on?
Is everything OK with the Lab?

We just got an update
from the Mondial,

and the inspection's next week.

They can't do that!
The repairs won't be done!

Can we delay?

I tried, but the next available
date isn't til next year.

Next year?
No, we can't wait that long.

So what you want to do?

[sighs]

Are you baking Doreen's
saltbush light-rye?

Yeah, it's today's special.

I haven't smelled that since...

I wasn't expecting you in.

I know, I...

If you've got nothing better to do,
they're won't knead themselves.

[laughs]

What?

The dough's
not going to bite you.

There's more than one way
to knead dough.

Doreen always said...

[dough slams]

To take it by the horns.

Sure thing.

Swayze.

Actually, Demi had the clay.

-Unless you're saying you want me to...
-I don't think so.

Nah.

So did you need something?

Oh, my mom heard that...

She's great, by the way.

Most of the time.

I need to go back to New York
early next week, so...

I'm sorry, I need you to start
the roof today.

But Miss Jenny's kindergarten's
coming in.

Actually, Miss Jenny called.

First-graders are coming in, too.

-Surely they can't be a problem.
-You don't know these kids.

Calm down!

I can handle the five-year-olds
if you can start the roof.

Where are the measuring cups
and the gelatin?

We're not feeding them
pure sugar!

Please?

I wouldn't be asking
if I had another choice.

OK, I'll start on the roof.

Gelatin's on the second
shelf in the pantry.

But if you turn them
into gremlins...

Cook...

Go on.

[kids chattering in background]

They want more.

It's really warm in here,
can you bring in a fan?

Only if you want to blow up
the circuit.

[power tools drilling]

At least we're not up there
in the sun, like Cook.

[drilling]

Hey.

Peace offering?

Sure.

Thanks, Tony.
Take a break.

There's more iced tea inside.

Lemon Myrtle.

You can't beat it fresh!

[snickers]

So how are things
going up there?

It's a start.

It was pretty bad.

It's going to be tight.

I can't imagine how weird this
is for you.

Are you free later?

I think so.

Good, tomorrow's special
is tricky.

[Marla] Hey!
A table of eight just came in.

They're as hangry
as horse flies!

I'll get it if you want to keep
working on the roof.

Oh, was that a yes for later?

Sure.

Hey, how's it going with you
know who?

What do you think is going on?

I know you're trying your best,
but is it working.

But I'm not doing...

All we needed was some
New York City hotshot

coming in here and just turning
our lives upside down.

-What was Doreen thinking?
-Calm down, Marla.

She's alright.

-I think she's nice!
-Of course you think she's nice.

What do you want me to do
with the leftover veggie sticks?

I'll take care of that.

You and Cook have plans, right?

I think so?

Oh, Marla!
I was just wondering how...

Oh.

-Hi, everybody.
-[Cook] Dale!

Just wondering how everything's going?

Oh, Dale, are you still OK

to help
with Doreen's party set up?

Yeah, of course.

[Beth] Thanks.

Well, we were going?

Fishing?

Kind of.

Well, do I have time to change?

Good idea.

OK.

So, if we're not going fishing,
then what are we doing?

Pipi-ing!

Excuse me?

Oh!
Clamming!

Come on, give it
a bit of muscle.

I am!
[laughs]

Oh!

[clears throat]

He really loves it here.

Doreen used to take him here
a lot,

so I try to do the same.

Spatch was Doreen's dog?

He showed up at the café
one day when he was just a pup.

It was love at first sight
between him and Doreen.

[dog barks]

But she didn't have
any dog toys lying around,

so she gave him an old spatula.

Hence, Spatch.

[laughter]

The poor little thing was
heartbroken

when she passed away.

It was awful.

But we'd always had a special bond,
so I adopted him.

This must be an amazing place
to grow up.

I wish.

I grew up in Melbourne.

And you ended up
at the Seagull Cafe?

Long story.

Do you ever miss your family?

Sometimes.
But I like it here.

So, what'll you do
when the café is sold?

Well, I'm hoping
to convince the new owner

to keep me on, but...

if not, I might have to find
some more contracting work

or double down
on renting at the cottage.

[dog whimpers]

Or if things
don't go well,

I might have to sell it
and move on.

I'm sorry.

Wow. [chuckles]

Doreen used to collect those.

So, there's another way
to collect pipis.

It's messier,
but it's how the locals do it.

OK.

Bring your bucket.

-Come on, Spatch.
-[dog barks]

Good boy.

OK.

Let your feet
sink into the sand

and then twist them around

until you feel something
between your toes.

-You're joking, right?
-I wish I was.

And if you're lucky,

you might find something.

Wow!

Come on, get in there!

That's it.
Looking good.

Feel anything?

Besides like I'm being punked?

Oh! I think I...

-[gasps]
-Yeah! Nice work!

Very good.

-[dog barks]
-Oh, Spatch!

-Hi, buddy.
-Hey! What are you doing?

-You splash her.
-Are you trying to give me kisses?

Well, you're not
going to get any!

You're not going to get any
'cause you face's full of sand!

-Hey, hey!
-Don't start that with me!

Hey! You don't start! Hey!

[laughter]

There, that's what you get
when you're pipi-ing.

Get up out of here!

[laughter]

[ringtone]

Hey, sweetheart.

[Caroline] Hey, Mom.

Is it too late there?

Oh, no, not at all.

Don't you look relaxed!

Is that a tan?

Fall asleep
under the warming lamp again?

Actually, we just went pipi-ing.

I don't know what that is,
but it sounds exciting.

Mom...

[laughs] Relax.
Are you having fun?

I think I am.

It's just not what I expected.

Well, you haven't had
much experience with it lately.

How's it going
with that dashing cook?

[gasps] I knew it!

Pipi-ing sounded
like too much fun.

Nothing happened!

Oh. Well, that's a shame.

Mom...

Why did we stop coming here?

We used to visit every summer
when I was little.

Well, as you get older,

you didn't want to leave
your friends over summer.

And after Nana and Pops passed,

there was less reason
to fight you on it.

Why?

It's...being back here, I...

I feel more connected
to Great Aunt D than ever.

I just wish I put in more time
while she was still here.

Oh, honey. She loved you
and was so proud.

Time and distance
never changed that.

[sighs]

The repairs at The Seagull
are going well.

Are you having second thoughts?

I don't know. I...

[sniffs] I just wish
there was a way

for this to feel right.

You'll figure out what's best,
sweetheart.

You always do.

Yeah.

[Beth humming]

People liked what you did
with the clams.

Oh!

What was that?

Oh, just asking Caroline
if she has any plans today?

No.
Do you want to cook again?

Hey, how did the macarons go
at your book club?

They loved them.

And yeah! I'd love
to if you're free.

Actually, if you're not busy tonight,
I wondered if we could...

No, Beth and I
are going to cook again

so you are going to have to hunt
tomorrow's special by yourself.

No, I was asking...

..not for The Seagull.

Oh.

Oh, is that the time?

Sorry, I forgot I actually
need to wash my cat.

OK.

So, what did you have in mind?

There she is!

This is where you live?

Just when I rent out
the cottage.

Wait, so I'm sleeping
in your...?

Oh, you're going to have to
take off your shoes.

Oh, OK.

It's so beautiful.

I wish I could see a moonrise
like that back home.

Easy.
Just turn all the power off.

Yeah, but what about
all the skyscrapers

and the city lights?

Another reason
I prefer it here.

Oh, New York isn't so bad.

Have you ever been?

Does Die Hard
With A Vengeance count?

You don't know New York

until you've found
your favorite hot dog stand

or the best place to get a fresh
bagel on a Tuesday morning.

There's just this energy there.

All these people are crowded
on this tiny little island

and you can't help
but be connected on some level.

And every day,
you connect with someone new

that you might never see again.

Don't you get tired of seeing
the same people every day?

It's not always the same here.

I wasn't expecting you.

Laboratoire sounds impressive.

Yeah, it is.

It's just...

I wonder if I got
so caught up in the business

that I forgot why I started
in the first place.

And why was that?

To make people's lives brighter,
one meal at a time.

You sound like Doreen.

Sorry.

It's OK.

I guess I do.

[sighs]

I really miss that feeling.

I'm finding it harder to find
the joy in it these days.

Maybe it's less
about finding the joy,

and more about letting
the joy find you.

I don't think
that this is a good idea.

It might be.

I'm sorry. I can't.

Want ice cream?

[laughter]

Uh... OK.

What do you got?

Nothing here,
but I know a place.

-Come on.
-Sure.

Come on.

Why are we...?

Shh! Marla lives...

And she doesn't like when I...

OK, I'll be quiet.

OK.

Triple choc, salted caramel,

boysenberry swirl,
raspberry, mango,

or lilly pilly sorbet...

[loudly] Oh, pilly lilly!

-Shh!
-[Marla] Who's in there?

If it's you two
little rascals again,

your mother's going to give
you the...

What are you two...?

Oh no!
Oh, what?

What did you do?

-Nothing. We were...
-Well...

Marla, you're missing the best...

-Oh.
-Dale!

-Caroline!
-Where's the breaker box?

Oh, there's no need

because the whole thing
will need replacing.

-I'll call Jimmy.
-No.

Susan's just come home
after having their first baby.

You're not calling him tonight.

What will we do?

I'll call Jimmy
first thing tomorrow.

Can you plug this in
at the cottage?

[sighs] OK.

Good thing you
were up plate prepping

when the power blew,

otherwise we could have
lost everything.

-Actually, I think I must have...
-[Cook] Marla's right.

The whole unit
needs are placing.

How long is that going to take?

It's hard to tell,
but it'll set things back.

The building inspector is
supposed to confirm

at any minute.

All we can do is keep going
and hope Jimmy can get us sorted.

But with a newborn...

[electrical buzzing]
Oh...

[clears throat]

[clears throat]

Is repainting the sign
really a priority right now?

You know, you don't
have to sell.

-[dog whimpers]
-You know I do.

I can't run both.

We could just keep going
as we are.

Marla, Beth and I
can run this place blindfolded.

I know The Seagull
doesn't make a ton of money,

but we always make enough.

Then you could come back.

[dog whimpers]

You know, to make sure
we're running it properly.

[dog whimpers]

Well, it's not that easy, Cook.
Look, I can't just...

But what if it is?
What if it could be,

but you've been so focused
on getting back,

you can't see it?

That's not fair.

I'm doing everything
I can...

[Beth] Guys!
I'll go set up for the party.

Caroline, are you still OK
to make the meat pies?

Of course.
I'm cooking tonight.

-Great.
-[Cook] Hang on,

you're making Doreen's pies?

I've had my fair share
of Aussie meat pies.

I think I can make them.

But what
will you fill yours with?

Truffle dust and saffron oil?

I was planning to elevate
the flavor a bit.

Are our flavors wrong?

No, your flavors are fine.

I just think that some people

would like to have something
a little bit more refined.

Well, people around here
like to know what they're getting.

They don't appreciate
someone waltzing in,

thinking they know better

and changing everything
just for the sake of it.

Well! Why don't we do this
your way

and keep the pies
the way they've been,

though they're
over-baked and falling apart...

Um, guys...

Then, when you have
a pile of pies

that nobody wants
or asked for,

I'll be sure to drop my life
and try to get rid of them.

Well, if nothing's sacred,

I might make a New York
cheesecake.

Oh, really?

And how are you
going to do that, Mr No Recipe?

Sure, you guys are still talking
about the party?

[Caroline and Cook] Yes.

OK then. Great.
Sounds like the perfect meal.

[sighs]
Come on, Spatch.

[gasps] Shoot!

He thinks I'm too fancy
to make Doreen's meat pie?

I'll show him a meat pie.

I'm not sure what...
Is that a threat?

No, it's a promise.

I don't care what he thinks.
He doesn't even know me.

Just breathe, sweetheart.

-Mom, I just...
-Take a breath.

[breathes deeply]

Look, all I wanted
was to come here,

farewell The Seagull

and say goodbye to Great Aunt D,

but now this guy, this cook...

Have you tried talking to him?

Besides via meat pie metaphors?

Tell him how you feel.

What if he doesn't feel
the same way?

[doorbell rings]

I'm sorry sweetheart, I've got to go.
The delivery truck's here.

Really, this time.

OK.
Thanks, Mom.

What, no 20 questions
about the produce order?

Look at you, letting go!

I love you, sweetheart.

-Talk to him.
-I will.

Love you too, Mom.

[sighs]
But first...

I'm going to make him
the best meat pie

he has ever eaten.

Hey, Dale. Marla.

Good evening, Caroline.

Everything set up already?

Yep, it's all good.

I've got
some good news.

Oh.

Oh, well lookee here!

You sure clean up nice, Cook.

Thank you, Marla.
Looking lovely yourself.

Well, it's nice
to have someone

to look lovely for.

Sometimes it takes
almost losing someone

to see what you've been missing
all along.

Dale, you said
you had some news?

Oh, yeah.

Well, with a little help
from Marla,

the building inspector can come
first thing.

So, if she approves
the repairs,

then you're off.

You can go.
You're away.

Really?
Will the wiring be finished?

Jimmy's working on it now.

Why don't I stop in
after the party?

Thank you both.

Oh, it's not me.
Cook.

Cook's the one
that did all the hard work.

Yes.
You've done an incredible job.

So, I'll confirm
for the morning?

Yeah, yes.

Great.

Oh, I love this song!

Then we should dance.

Oh, yes. Let's dance.

Hey, no spying!

Not bad.

[Both simultaneously] I...
[Both simultaneously] Go ahead.

You go ahead,
or we'll be here all night.

I...

I was just going to tell you

that I finished the roof
and the sign's back up.

What were you going to say?

How about we don't talk
about The Seagull tonight?

Sounds good.

♪ Oh, you're keeping it real ♪

I love this song.

Do you want to dance?

[indistinct chatter]

-[Marla] I need a drink.
-[Dale] Who wants a drink?

-Thanks.
-[Beth] You're welcome.

-Thanks, darling.
-Beth, this is for you.

This looks nice.

-That's for you.
-Thank you.

Perfect.

Alrighty.

[Marla] Wow.

[clears throat]

Thank you everyone for helping
make tonight so wonderful.

Even though it's been a year
without Doreen,

it still feels like she's with us
and tonight, even more so.

She would have loved this.

But she wouldn't want us
to get weepy

and definitely wouldn't want
the pies to get cold,

-so, she'd tell us to dig in!
-[All] Dig in!

-To Doreen!
-[All] To Doreen!

-[Dale] To Doreen.
-[Cook] Cheers.

[Guest] This looks good.

[Beth] Yum.

OK.

[Cook] Hmm...

-[indecisively] Hmm...
-[Beth] Come on, Cook.

[Marla] Don't be such
a sore loser, Cook.

They're great pies, Caroline.

Well, it's not Doreen's pie.

[scoffs]

But it's pretty darn good.

[cheering]

And Doreen would have
thought so too.

Thank you.

[Dale] More salad, anyone?
There you go.

[indistinct chatter]

[Caroline]
What a beautiful night?

[laughter and conversation]

-[Cook] 'Scuse me.
-[Caroline] Oh, thank you.

And, just a little bit
of this.

Oh, thank you so much.

Well, let's see
what you've done here.

Hmm...

Hmm...

Wait a minute...

This is my cheesecake.
You used my recipe.

You used a recipe?

Yes, but with a Lemon Myrtle
Cove twist.

It's delicious.

Oh, so does this mean that
cheesecake's on the menu now?

-Yes!
-No.

[disappointed exclamations]

[laughter]

It is a great cheesecake,
if I do say so myself.

-[Cook] It's not bad.
-[Dale] Really good.

Hey, we never had that dance.

[song continues]

[Beth] Hey, there's a guy here
and he says he's your fiance.

My fiance? What...?

Caroline, baby!
I've been trying to call.

The boys arranged
this last-minute trip to Bali

so I got the jet
to bring me by.

[croaks]

Hey, Nathaniel.

Cook, this is...

Oh, you're the cook.

Cook, I don't know what...

Yeah. I'm gonna...

Why are you here?

The boys always do these
last-minute trips, you know?

No, why are you here?

Why don't we go somewhere?

Caroline! I thought
you'd be happy to see me.

Come on, I flew all this way.

How did you know I was here?

I overheard your mom mention
The Seagull café,

and well,
it was pretty easy from there.

But we said
we would talk when I'm back.

I was practically next-door.

Bali is in a completely
different country!

Caroline! I had the jet
and I wanted to see you.

I miss you.

I miss your smile,

and your button nose,

and the way you feel
when I hold you.

[Cook] Come on.

I've missed you too.

[dog whimpers]

Come on.

But why do you want
to get back together now?

I just told you.

And...?

And...

..it's so incredible,
what you're doing with the Lab.

It's the hottest spot
in Tribeca.

[scoffs]

You are so predictable.

You dumped me because I was
working too hard

to try and get the Lab
off the ground,

and now I'm successful,
you want me  back?

-It's not like that.
-No, just go.

-Caroline....
-Please, leave now.

But, I've got nowhere to stay.

Well, you have your jet.

[Cook] Thanks Jimmy. I hope
you get some sleep.

Come on, Spatch.

[dog whimpers]

Jimmy's finished the wiring.

The place is ready
for your building inspection.

Thank you.
Cook, I...

It's late, Caroline.

You don't owe me anything.

Come on, Spatch.

[dog whimpers]

Don't do this now.

He can stay here if he wants.

OK, well you know where
to find me if he's playing up.

♪ I don't know why ♪

♪ I decided to fall ♪

♪ Is this what love is? ♪

♪ I don't know why ♪

[song continues as instrumental]

[dog barks softly]

-[dog whimpers]
-[laughs]

You see this?

I miss her too.

[sighs]

I guess she was watching
over me.

I know I should be
so ready

to go back to New York,
Spatch, but...

I just don't want to.

[notification sound on phone]

[Dale] You ready?

Actually, is Cook
at the café?

They're all opening up.

Perfect.
Because I changed my mind.

-I'm not selling.
-Excuse me?

It's like Cook said,

he, Beth and Marla
can run that place blindfolded

I'll need to come back
and check on them.

What about recouping
your renovation costs?

I still need to figure
that part.

Yes! I mean...

Yes! I mean...
Well, that's great.

Everyone's going
to be thrilled. Congratulations.

I'm going to go let them know.

Well, I'll wait
for the building inspector.

Yes!

[Marla] We could go up
on the roof

and drill some new holes
in there.

-You could've missed a spot.
-[Cook] Marla...

Or we can stick a hairpin
in the breaker box,

-Jimmy could've messed it up.
-It's over, Marla! OK?

-We all need to accept it.
-No thanks to you, Cook.

Getting Jimmy to work
through the night.

You know, we nearly had it
in the bag.

-Wait, you shorted the circuit?
-Never mind that.

Look, we both tried our hardest
to change her mind.

You really turned the charm on.

Those big-city women
think they're too good

for us regular folk.

Look, the fact is,
The Seagull is selling

and there's nothing
we can do about it.

-Caroline is going to sell...
-[clears throat]

Pardon the interruption.

Dale and the building inspector
will be here at any moment

and as soon as she approves,
we're finalizing the sale.

[sighs]

Can you talk to the new owner
about our jobs?

I won't be here.

I'm flying back
to New York tonight.

What? No.

Well, we're not shut down yet.
Everybody get ready to open.

Come on, let's go.

Can you give me one last
walk-through

before the inspector arrives?

You've seen the repairs
and the wiring obviously works...

Yeah, I'd like
to double-check things.

Some people would do just about
anything to stop the sale.

Fine.

Shelves are done.

Hey! Hey!
Open the door.

[Marla] Not until she decides
not to sell.

Why do I have to be
locked in here too?

You're going
to convince her.

Open this door
or I am going to call my lawyer.

Go right ahead.

Beth, are you out there?

Open the door please.

-[Marla] Don't you even think it.
-[Beth] I'm sorry, Caroline.

-Beth!
-I'm sorry!

-Bye-bye.
-Hey, come back here.

No stress. Dale should be here
any minute.

We just have to wait.

I guess you're plan
didn't work out.

My plan?
What about your plan?

My plan's been the same
all along. Sell the café,

with the best chances
of you all keeping your jobs.

Yeah, I know that plan.

I was helping you
the whole time, remember?

All the while wooing me
under the Australian stars,

convincing me to keep it?

Right, so you heard Marla.

Turns out
there was no point anyway.

So, you were wooing me?
No, I wasn't trying to woo you!

-Oh, am I not worth wooing?
-That's not what I meant.

You know what?
I don't want to hear it.

Until Dale is here,

this is my side of the pantry,
you stay over there.

Aah!

[snickers]

Hm!

-That's how you want to play this.
-Yep.

Hey, hey! Rice hurts.

Pfft, well, if you can't stand
the heat, get out of the pantry.

Fine then.

I can't believe after
everything,

you think I wasn't honest.

Like I can believe anything
you say, Mr Casanova.

Well, wait about your fiance?

He is not...

He was, but he's not,
and I am not interested.

That's not how it sounded.

Oh, so you were spying on us?

You can't call it spying
when you had the front door open!

Oh, you know what?
You know, it doesn't matter.

Because you are just
layering it on thick

so that I wouldn't
sell this place.

You are such a player.

I wasn't trying to play you.

Then what were
all the goo-goo eyes

and the moments in the moonlight
and then that shell necklace?

And your looks at me like that.

Like this?

Caroline...

Marla said
that she was in the...

...on the roof.
So, yeah, just on the roof.

We'll just pop up there.

I wasn't pretending.

Tony, where's the broom?

[dog barks]

Well, the building inspection
was approved,

despite the best laid plans
of a few of you.

But there is more
we need to discuss.

We know.

We have to start
finding new jobs.

[indistinct chatter]

Well, yes.

Cook, how do you feel about
officially being head chef?

The new owner's keeping us on?

Hmm, that depends
on your answer.

And if Marla agrees

to officially manage
the business and the floor.

[scoffs] Now I know you're crazy.

Maybe I am.
But you have all proven

that you would do just about
anything

to keep these doors open,

so as long as you promise

to keep things running smoothly
here while I'm back in New York,

I'll keep The Seagull.

[cheering and laughter]

Alright, alright.
Don't celebrate too much.

You're not getting rid of me
forever. I'll be back.

But for now, I have a plane
to catch

and you have to get ready
for the lunch rush,

so I guess it's goodbye
for now.

Thank you for everything.
I'm going to miss you so much.

I'm just a phone call away.

And I expect a new dessert menu
from you next month.

Wait, really?

Mm-hm, yeah. You're ready.

So, let's talk through
some ideas.

Yes! I'd love that!
Thank you.

I'm sorry about everything.

I can be a bit overprotective.

Well, that's why I know

that you will take care of this
place properly while I'm gone.

-Thank you.
-No more hairpins, OK?

Not if I wanted to keep Jimmy
and Susan on side.

Come on, Dale.

You surprised me.

I surprised myself.

-Cook...
-Caroline...

-Go ahead.
-No, you go ahead.

You go ahead this time.

I'm sorry that I accused you
of being dishonest.

This trip has been so big

in so many ways.

And now I have to go.

It's OK.

You'll be back
and I'll be here.

I'll see you soon then.

See you soon.

[Marla] Order up, Cook.

[sighs]

How are you feeling?

We've got 48 hours to prepare.
Are we ready?

Molly, I am really impressed.

You've done a wonderful job.

This is exactly
what I would've done.

But it's wrong.

What?

I'm sorry.

I was wrong.

We're going to need
to rework the menu.

Are you OK to help?
I'd love your input.

Of course!

Then I need you
to call our suppliers,

see if we can get some
last-minute specialty items.

OK, I'm on it.

-OK. Hey, Mom.
-Hmm?

Thank you.

For everything.

Where would you like to start?

Nice job, Nick.

They finished their mains.
So far, so good.

Alright, Molly.
You know Mondial.

The star comes down
to the desert.

I don't think so.

You spent the last two days
getting this balance right.

We're going to plate them
together.

You sure?

You got this.
It's a piece of cake.

Yeah, chef.

Well, they won't tell us
anything,

but he asked for a reservation
for his wife's birthday.

[gasps of delight]

[screams of delight]

Oh my God! We did it!
We did it!

Hey, Mom. What is this?

Just a celebration.

-Don't jinx us!
-[laughter]

Caroline, they practically
licked their plates clean.

Besides, we have a lot
to celebrate.

You're back.

Mom, I've been back
for a couple of days now.

I don't mean from Australia.
I mean you're back.

Your smile, your joy.

You found your reason again.

Wait, what?

-Where did you get this?
-[Cook] Lemon Myrtle Cove.

Cook!

I thought you were
watching The Seagull.

Beth and Marla have it
under control.

What are you doing?

Caroline, I'm sorry I didn't
have the words back home.

I hope I do now.

I didn't try to make you
fall for me

so you'd keep The Seagull.

I was too distracted
falling for you.

Besides keeping the café
means nothing

if we can't...

I know it's insane.

I don't know how it could work
with you over here

and me over there,
but if you're interested...
