ANNOUNCER:
This program is rated G

(upbeat music)

(knocking)

Everyone is waiting for you
in the conference room.

I'm on my way.

I can literally

see you typing, Gemma.

- I just have to fix--
- Step away from the screen.

Put the scone down.

The print on the flyer
is perfect.

How did you know?

Call it, PA's intuition.

Okay, okay, go, go.

I will be right behind you,
I promise.

Fine, but only because I want
the last raspberry macaroon

or else the meeting
will be intolerable.

It's my meeting.

I know.

(door closing)

(phone ringing)

Someone ate the last macaroon?

What?

When?

(soft music)

How did it happen?

In her sleep?

At least she went peacefully.

No, um, thank you.

Thank you for telling me.

(soft music)

How are you holding up?

I, uh...

I just wish I had more time.

You know, I kept meaning
to visit, but there's always

some work excuse.

And now, she's gone and I didn't
even get to say goodbye.

You're being too hard
on yourself, Gem.

Rosa knew how much
you loved her.

I wish you knew her
like I did.

She is the reason
I am such a foodie.

And the reason for your
kitchen utensil addiction.

Yes.
(chuckling)

Ugh, some of my favourite
teenage memories

are at Rosa's restaurant.
She is the one who taught me

how to use simple ingredients

and turn them into the most
incredible dishes.

Ah, tiramisu,
my all-time favourite.

She made this for me
the day that I failed

my driver's test
because she wanted me

to have a good memory
from that day.

Oh, that's sweet.

Rosa's famous tomato sauce.

- Ah.
- Gemma.

I promised I would never share
that with anybody.

(laughing)

I had to earn it.

I can't tell you how many pounds
of tomatoes I had to peel

and seed before she would
trust me with this.

Why not just use
canned tomatoes?

Canned tom-- Rosa? No.

She only used
the freshest produce.

And her secret ingredient...
- Tell me.

The secret ingredient
was love.

Oh, sounds like she was
quite the romantic.

The biggest.

She loved like,
romantic novels and movies

and she loved playing
matchmaker.

- Who's this?
- Oh, that's Max,

a guy that worked
at Rosa's with me.

Did you ever... date?

No, he had a girlfriend.

I mean, there might
have been feelings,

but then we both went off
to college and nothing
ever happened.

Too bad, he's cute.

What happened to him?
- I don't know, we lost touch.

I mean, I don't think
his girlfriend liked
how close we were.

Yeah, and I think he's a chef
in New York now.

Sounds like Rosa had
an influence on him too.

Yeah.

I wonder how many zesters
he has in his kitchen.

(chuckling)

(♪)

Here you go.

Here we go.

Here you go.

No, no, wait, hang on, wait,

wait, hang on.
Sorry, I forgot something.

Don't look at me like that.
Chef Paul makes the rules.

(♪)

Okay, there you go.
Go, go, go. Next.

Bring it through,
bring it through. Let's go.

Is this a kitchen
or a science lab?

Let's post a tweet for the
in-store event tomorrow morning.

I'm thinking the photo
with the mousse cake

and Donovan Price holding
his new cookbook.

And uh, no more
than three hashtags.

Anything more
and it's desperate.

Anything else?
- No, that's everything.

Alright.

Oh, I almost forgot,
this came for you.

Are you in some sort of trouble?

(chuckles)
Because if you are,

I know a guy.

I'm going to need you
to re-book the all-hands
meeting tomorrow.

I'll be out of the office
in the afternoon.

(soft music)

What do I got today?

Lobster truffle mousse
with an edible balloon.

I don't get it.

(♪)

Dear Max McCoy.

(soft music)

(phone ringing)
- Max, how you doing, buddy?

I, uh, heard about Rosa.

I'm really sorry.

(Max): Yeah, sorry,
that's kind of why I'm calling.

Do you mind if I crash at
your place for a few weeks?

There's something back home
I have to take care of.

Might be a little bit longer.

Yeah, you know you have
an open invitation.

Is there something else
going on besides Rosa?

I just don't think that

New York's working out
anymore.

Stay as long as you need.

I'll text you the details.

Sounds good.
(Max): Bye.

Bye.

(soft music)

(sighs)

(door closing)

It's good to have you back,
even if it's temporary.

Hardly recognize anyone
in town anymore.

Is there anybody here
from our old class or not?

Uh, not really.

Most of them moved away
like you.

Hey, actually, you know
who moved back?

Gemma Taylor.
- Stop.

- Mm-hmm.
- Wow, I haven't seen her

since... since we left
for college.

You never told me what
happened between you two.

(laughing)
- What do you mean?

Nothing.
- Come one,

you can tell me,
it's been years.

I'm being serious.

I was dating Joley at the time,

Gem and I were just friends.

What's she been up to anyway?

She works at Indulge.

It's one of those
gourmet supermarkets.

It opened a few years ago.

Actually, it's right up
your alley.

Gemma runs all the marketing
and in-store events.

It's quite impressive.

Huh, I'll have to go
check it out sometime.

I meant, Gemma,
she's impressive.

Okay.

She's changed quite a bit
since high school.

Oh, really?

Okay, I have a meeting
with a new client,

so just make yourself at home
and let's do dinner.

There's a new sushi place
I've been meaning to try.

You know what, why don't we
stay in and I'll cook.

I don't know.

I just... I'm feeling
something simple,

something Rosa taught me,
you know?

I won't turn down
a home-cooked meal.

- Nice, alright.
- Someone should use my kitchen.

I'll see you later.
(sighing)

(phone ringing)

(soft music)

Max?

Gemma?

(laughing)
- I don't believe it.

I was just looking
at old photos of you.

Yeah, it's good to see you.

Where is the pony tail?

I got rid of that, it was
a kitchen hazard, so.

That is right, you are a chef
in New York now.

Sous-chef.
What about you?

No more short hair and bangs?
- Oh, no.

I'm all grown up now.
- Well, I can see that.

What are you doing here?

I was just about
to ask you the same thing.

Oh good, you're both here.
I'm Marvin.

Hi, Gemma.

- Max.
- Nice to meet you.

Max. I hope you weren't
waiting too long,

my assistant is off today.

Are you together?

Us? Oh no.
Like together, together?

No. No, I haven't seen him
in years like, since high school

and like, he had a girlfriend,
and then we both went off

to college and the timing
really like, never worked.

I think he was just looking
for like, a "yes" or "no".

Yep. No, we're not together.

Well, I'm glad
we cleared that up.

It's too bad, though, would've
made things a lot easier.

Let's go into my office.

At the same time?

Yes, both of you, together.

Even though I know you're not
together, together.

Follow me.

Oh, I thought I had
Rosa's file here,

you'll have to excuse me
for a moment.

This place falls apart
when my assistant isn't here.

No problem.

Hey, Nolan was telling me
about your new job,

that's exciting.
- Oh.

I mean. sounds like
it's right up your alley.

Yeah, it's a great place.
I love it.

Man, that must be nice having
access to all those ingredients.

Hmm. Yeah. Actually,
I can't remember the last time

I was in the kitchen.
I'm always promoting

what other people make.

Aw, that's too bad.

I remember you loved baking.
- Oh, I still do.

There just never seems
to be enough time.

That I can relate to, yeah.

Don't you work in a kitchen?

I don't run a kitchen,
there's a huge difference.

Oh.

Here we are, sorry about that.

Oh, it's okay.

Let's get down to it,
shall we?

I imagine you're wondering
why you're here.

Yes, the letter said
that it was urgent.

Rosa has left you both
her restaurant.

(Both): What?

I'm sorry, but like,
how is that even possible?

We can't just go into
business together.

I mean, I... I don't even know
how many zesters he owns.

There's more.
There's a clause.

And it's going to sound
a little strange,

but it's right here in her will.

Just tell us.

You must both be married
to claim the restaurant.

(soft music)

(laughing)

You're serious?

To each other?

No, you just need
to be married.

Oh, that's a relief.

Are either of you married?

- No.
- No.

There's one other thing.

What, we need
a baby too?

You must provide proof
of marriage within three weeks

or the restaurant
goes to Rosa's nephew Santos

who plans to tear it down
and build a condo.

I'm sorry... Marvin?

Mar... Are you joking?

Are there hidden cameras
in here? I...

I'm afraid not.

These are Rosa's last wishes.

She didn't want either of you
to end up alone.

It was her big regret
that she didn't have anyone
to share her life with.

(sighing)
- That does sound like Rosa.

What if only one of us
gets married?

Then that person
gets the restaurant.

Look I know this is a big deal

and I think Rosa was
thinking that by now,

one of you would be married.

Well, don't look at me.
I can't remember the last time

I was on a date.

There's no way around this?
There's nothing we can...

I'm afraid not.

My next client should be here,

but take some time
to think about this.

Not too much, though,
you only have three weeks.

(chuckles)
I'll arrange to get you a key

to the restaurant
so that you can go in

and make sure this is
what you both want.

Keep me posted.
- Thank you.

Thank you.

This is nuts, right?

- I'm thinking.
- Wait, wait, wait,

you can't possibly
be considering this.

Well, okay, look, hear me out.

I gotta sit down.

You were just saying that you
want to be your own boss, right?

- That's the dream.
- And I have always wanted

to own my own place
where I can run cooking events

and baking classes out of.
- Sure,

except that you're missing
the most integral part
of this entire thing.

We have to meet someone in three
weeks, and then marry them.

Yep. I know it sounds crazy,
I know.

But it can happen.

My parents, they knew
the moment they met

and they're still together.

And look, there's potential
suitors everywhere.

Maybe not everywhere.
But if not now, then when?

It would give me a chance
to finally cook the cuisine

that Rosa taught me, stop with
all these science experiments.

Exactly.

Rosa loved that restaurant
and the community.

I don't want Santos tearing it
down, it's too important.

I know, I can't let him
do that.

Do you really think
we can pull this off?

We have to try.
If not for us, then for Rosa.

Okay, hypothetically,

we manage to make this work,
then what?

I mean, you said it yourself,

we can't just go
into business together.

I own three zesters,
by the way.

I was in shock,
but we already know
we can work together.

That was a really
long time ago.

So, we'll make it work.

I can't believe
I'm saying this, okay.

Yeah. Alright, I'm in.

- Really?
- Yeah.

(sighing)
- Okay.

Now where to start?

Oh, I have to meet up with Evie.
Are you headed anywhere?

I'm going to go to Rosa's
and pay my respects.

Okay, I'll walk with you.

Okay.

We're doing this.

(soft music)

Wow, this makes it real.

- Yeah.
- I think I took this.

You did.

I forgot how short
your hair was.

(laughing)
- I know.

Ugh, hey, watch
where you're going.

Sorry, man,
I'm pretty sure you're
the one on the cell phone.

Just give me those.

Hey, wait, are you Santos?
Rosa's nephew?

Do I know you?

We used to work here
as teenagers.

So?

- Well, we...
- Oh, I know who you are.

Why would you want to tear
this place down?

Everybody loved Rosa.
I mean, look how much she meant
to the community.

This restaurant means
so much to so many people,
you can't do this.

I don't recall asking
for your permission.

Besides, nostalgia doesn't
pay the bills.

Look, I'm sorry,
it's just good business sense.

No hard feelings.

(sighing)
- We cannot let him do this.

I mean, you can always join
that seniors walking club.

Look at that!
You already got the hang of it.

You're so fast.

(rhythmic music)

(chuckling)
- Oh, now where were we?

Food for the grand opening.

I'm thinking, mini cakes
with a champagne

and a violinist would be
a beautiful touch.

I'm going for fun and elegance
like your shop.

Oh, that's fabulous. Oh, hun,
you can take it from here.

I can see why everyone
raves about you.

Thank you, Fay,
leave it to me.

I will take care of everything.
- Oh. You're a doll.

Here, take the hat.

- Oh, no.
- I insist.

(phone ringing)

Oh, oh, I have to take this,

um, I'll see you in a week.
- Yeah.

(laughing)

I'm sorry I'm late.

You are not going to believe
what happened.

It can't be better
than my new hat.

Oh, just you wait.

Gemma.

Gemma, what does that mean?

- Come on, walk and talk.
- Okay, Gemma!

Can you take some of these
for Indulge?

I'm hand-delivering them to all
the local shops tomorrow.

I want the grand opening
to be a success.

Of course, whatever you need.

Oh, and I'm sorry that you
didn't get to meet Faye.

She is the coolest.

I already see the influence
she's had on you.

Okay, last one.

Thank you.

(sighing)

So, what's Max like now,
still cute?

I don't know, I didn't notice.

I still can't believe Rosa
left you her restaurant.

But only if I'm married.

I haven't been on a date
in ages like...

I forget what to do.

That's exactly why
this is a good thing.

It's time you put
yourself out there.

It's like riding a horse.

Do you mean "bike"?

Horse, bike, same thing.

I fell off the last horse
I was on, remember?

Poor Snowball, it's not
his fault he's blind.

Ugh.

Okay, not to worry,
I'm going to help you.

My job gives me access
to a lot of information

and a huge network of people.

Trust me, this is going
to be fun.

- Fun for who?
- Fun for me!

Here we go, calendar is up.

(laughing)

Very nice.

- When was your last haircut?
- Why?

Never mind,
we have some work to do.

You doing alright?

You haven't moved
from there since dinner.

Thanks.

This new client
is already a handful.

Hey, you wouldn't happen
to have anybody

that you could set me up with,
would you?

There's some single women
at work I could ask.

- Okay, that's a start.
- My mom's friends are always

trying to set me up
with their daughters.

- Okay.
- My cousin throws these amazing

dinner parties, you should go
to one of those.

- Nolan.
- Yeah.

- How are you single?
- Hey, this is about you

and the restaurant
right now, back off.

Okay.

What's this?
What are you doing?

I am making a spread sheet.

There isn't anything that can't
be solved with a spread sheet.

What do you think?
- I've gone 35 years

without a spread sheet
and I'm doing just fine,

why do I need a spread now?
- Oh, I'm excited about this.

Let's start off with
some yoga with Lauren.

I thought it was dating,
not torture.

(exhaling)

(relaxing music)

Let me guess, you met with
that rude supplier again?

It's the only time
I ever see you meditate.

If only he didn't have
the best balloon selection,

I'd tell him to go
you know where.

(laughing)

I don't think
the meditation is working.

Oh, who's Ethan?

Kat is setting me up
with her brother's friend.

He's a dentist.
- I always knew

your flossing obsession
would pay off one day.

Ha, ha. But now I have
three dates tomorrow.

That's perfect, you have
to eat three meals a day anyway.

- Very funny.
- Oh, and you look gorgeous.

Gary isn't even going
to recognize you from
your profile pic.

- My what?
- I met him on a dating site

with your online dating profile.

He's a veterinarian.

I have an online
dating profile?

Profiles, plural with an S.

- What?
- Come now.

You don't want to keep
Gary waiting.

He says he values punctuality
and animals, obviously.

What? He said so in his profile.

Oh, don't mention Snowball.

(sighing)
Okay.

(sighing)

Whoa, I know it's just coffee,

but you might want to throw
a shirt on there, bro.

Last time I checked,
this was my bedroom.

Yeah, sorry,
I needed two screens.

This new client is driving me
absolutely crazy.

He keeps texting me every hour
to run a market report.

He thinks ending every text
with a smiley face emoji

makes it better, but it only
makes it worst.

See, that's why I like food,
it never talks back to you.

Actually, this guy
loves to cook.

You'd probably get along.

So, who am I going
on a date with?

Oh, right, uh,
Talia Reed at eight.

- Talia Reed from high school?
- Yeah.

- Didn't she get arrested?
- She was never charged.

Hey, uh, you might want
to hurry up.

Who knows what she'll do
to you if you're late.

(laughing)
Watch out.

See ya.

See ya.

Yes, your report
is coming, man.

Hey, at least
there's no smiley face.

(phone chiming)
(chuckles)

There it is, smiley face emoji.

(soft music)

Thanks.

Aw, was it really that bad?

He talked about himself
the entire time,

I couldn't wait
to get out of there.

Honey, I think you deserve
a scone with your coffee,

on the house.

I work here,
so they're free.

And be careful,
they're still ho... hot.

Oh! Not as hot as him.
Who is that?

Hey, what, do you sleep here?

Yeah, I know it looks like
that, but no, I do have a home.

I just come here most days
before work.

The best coffee in town.

Ahem, introduce me
to your friend.

Max, this is Rory.

Where have you been
hiding out?

Max and I used to work
at Rosa's when we were
in high school.

He's just visiting
from New York, temporarily.

I'm so sorry about Rosa.

Yeah.

If you ever need to talk,
I'm a very good listener.

Thanks, I appreciate that.

What about a coffee?
Milk, no sugar.

Coming right up, I have a pot
that's almost ready.

Thank you.

This is where you work, huh?

Yeah.

Actually, I'm glad I ran
into you,

I'm thinking of doing
something for Rosa.

- Okay, like what?
- Like a party or an event,

something to celebrate her life
with all her favourite dishes.

Yeah, I like that,
I can help out.

Oh, no, that's okay.

Hey, listen, I loved Rosa too

and you'll need a chef.

Um...

Come on, it'll be a great way

to see if you and I still
work well together.

Okay, fine.

Yeah, I'll put you
in charge of food.

Great.

We need to make a signature
dish, we'll name it after her.

Oh, okay.

I got it.

Rigatoni a la Rosa.

Or what about those
little Italian fritters

that are shaped like roses?

Yeah.

Well, there can really only be
one signature dish, so.

Perfect, rigatoni it is.

You did leave me in charge
of the food after all.

We don't really have
to decide right now.

What do I owe ya?

Oh, it's free as long
as you promise to come back.

Thank you very much, it was
nice to meet you, Rory.

(sighing)

Looks like you have
a secret admirer.

What do you mean?

At this point,
I'm not ruling out anyone.

That's right, an assortment
of flavours, lemon, vanilla,

chocolate, red velvet.

Yes, five dozen
should still be enough.

- Hey.
- Give me one second.

Perfect, I'll see you then.

What was that about?

The Peek Vintage shop
grand opening.

I'm confirming
the mini cake order.

I love that.
Oh, I bought the cutest

mini cake moulds
from Indulge last year.

They're still in the box,
but I'm going to use
those eventually.

There seems to be a lot
of unopened boxes

of baking supplies
in our kitchen these days.

I know, I will get back
to baking eventually just--

(both): Once work slows down.

I've heard that one before.

Oh, before I forget,
I signed you up

for a speed dating game's event
at the community centre.

I saw it posted on Insta,
it's almost sold out

and I would join you,
but I have to work.

Oh, sounds fun.

Finally, a date that doesn't
require physical activity.

Speaking of which,
you may want to change.

Why? This is your dress.

And it looks great,
but it might not be the best
for rock-climbing.

Rock-climbing?

Oh, yeah, it's easier
than it looks.

- Oh, you've been?
- Oh, no.

I heard it was.
I can't rock climb.

- Evie.
- You were way more outdoorsy

than me.

Come on, I'll help you find
a pair of shoes with good grip.

Okay.

(clinking)

Oh, I know that sound.

Rough day?

Yeah, it's emoji guy.

We're meeting tomorrow night
to look over his financial plan,

and I told you, he's really into
food, especially Italian.

Normally, I would've
taken him to Rosa's.

But now, I don't know
where to go.

But the food has
to be perfect.

Why don't you have him
over here and I'll cook?

I mean, there's nothing like
a homemade meal

to bring relationships together.

I'll make lasagna and all you
gotta do is bum it in the oven.

That would be great,
are you sure?

Dude, after everything
you've done for me,

let me do this for you.
- Alright, yeah, thanks, man.

I think that'll really help him
build his trust in me.

Mm-hmm, um... What's this?

Ha, that is your art gallery
ticket, my friend.

"Look at arts through
the romantic period."

It's perfect, right?

You're bound to meet
someone there.

This is a grown-up event
this time, right?

Oh, dude, I told you
I was sorry, alright?

I didn't know that museum tour
was booked for a class trip.

Mrs. Lee's third graders
loved you, though.

Well, they were awesome.

Anyway, I'll see you later,

I'm off to speed dating night.

Later, bro.

(soft music)

So, how long have you
lived here?

Shh, I need to concentrate.

Oh.

That's what I'm talking about!

High-five?

Don't leave me hanging.

Oh, uh.

It's still your turn.

Excuse me, are you going to go?

Oh, sorry.

Oh, that's okay.

(laughing)

Oh, I'm so sorry.
Are you okay?

My ex and I used
to play this game.

(crying)

Here, take that, there.

(blowing nose)

(crying)
(buzzer)

(♪)

You know, Rosa would've
gotten a kick out of this.

- You think so?
- Oh, yeah,

she loved playing
matchmaker.

(chuckles)

- How many fingers?
- I don't know

'cause I can't see anything.

Good, that was the test.
You ready?

Ready.

There's no way you are
going to win again.

So contender 95
he was kind of intense?

Oh yeah.

Well, you looked like
you had your hands full.

Yeah, I couldn't wait
for that buzzer to go off.

Stand still, don't move.
- Oh, boy.

Tail.

There you go.
- Got it.

- Alright.
- This way.

Good luck.

(♪)

Come on!
How are you doing that?

(laughing)

(humming)

What can I say, I'm a bit
of a bad ass, do you get it?

You're a bit of a jackass.
You know what?

This is my chance for me
to redeem myself.

No way.
I don't trust you.

I'm putting your blindfold on.

Fine. Go.

You know, we still have
to decide on a date for Rosa's
memorial ceremony.

Hm.

Two weeks today?

That's my birthday,
that's perfect.

I just forget that
you're older than me.

By three months!

(laughing)
Okay, you know what?

I am going to miss Rosa's
tomato sauce, though.

She used to send me jars
every year on my birthday.

Same, she never missed one.

How many fingers
am I holding up?

Just give me...
Spin me.

- Okay, alright.
- Okay.

One, two...
Okay, there you go.

Now, do you need me
to explain the rules--

Tail me!

Alright, there you go.

I'm about to blow
the hooves off this thing.

- Here we go.
- Straight, right here?

Yep, yep.

Boom! How'd I do?

Um, well, it could be worse.

He still has an eye intact, so.

Stop, this game is rigged!

How is... Here.

(chuckling)

(soft music)

I'll take it off.
- Thanks.

(buzzer)

Well, that was fun.

You win again.
Oh, hi, hi.

- See you.
- Alright, I'll see you.

- Yep.
- I'll see you in a little bit.

(Max): Hey, I'm Max.

He compared me to his ex,
the whole time.

I can't believe I got up
this early for him.

(sighing)
- His loss, you look fabulous.

And speaking of fabulous.

You kept your promise,
nice to see you again, Max.

Hi, Rory.
Good morning, Gemma.

That's a fancy outfit.
- Ah.

What brings you here
so nice and sweat...

I mean, early.
- Yoga class.

Oh, I like a man
who can downward dog.

I'll be right back with your
coffee. Milk, no sugar?

You left quite an impression.
- Thanks, Rory.

(laughing)

So, anyone interesting
at Yoga?

Sure, if I was 65.

- Hm.
- Yeah, it turned out

to be a seniors class.
- Oof.

Wasn't a total bust, though,
Betsy did give me

her granddaughter's
phone number.

- Eh.
- What about you, any luck?

My date made
Mr. Highfive look good.

Oof, that bad, huh?

Yeah, he was only interested
in taking photos of me

to send to his ex-girlfriend
to make her jealous.

Well, you can take it
as a compliment.

Oh, wait, that's not even
the worst part.

You'll never believe who stepped
on the court after us.

Santos.
- Stop it.

Mm-hmm.

Did you hit him
with your racket?

No, but I was tempted.

You should've.
Did he say anything?

No, he just smiled and waved,

I feel like he's getting
a kick out of this whole thing.

How he's related to Rosa,
I'll never understand.

Hey, are we still
meeting here later to talk
about the memorial?

I'll finally be able
to give you a proper tour.

If I'm not busy with Betsy's
granddaughter, I'll be here.

(chuckling)
- Okay, I have to get ready

for work, I will see you later?
- Sounds good.

There you go, handsome.

Now, um, how about showing me
your... warrior pose?

Maybe next time.
Thanks, Rory.

(camera shutter clicking)

- Right on time!
- Hey.

- Hope you're hungry.
- Always.

Wow, this place is incredible.
- Yeah.

I have worked really hard
to make Indulge more than
a grocery store.

I want it to be a place
where people can come
for an experience.

I'd love to do the same
with Rosa's,

make it more
than a restaurant.

Wow, it's nice to see
how inspired you are.

You're like a marketing genius.

- Oh.
- Wish I could say

the same thing about my job.
- What happened?

I'm just tired of working
under Chef Paul's vision.

That's why this opportunity with
Rosa could be really great.

Well, have you talked to him?

He keeps trying to contact me,
I keep ignoring him.

Okay, well, you have
to talk to him.

No matter what happens
with Rosa's, it's time for you
to live your dream.

Life is short,
you gotta take a leap.

- What's going on here?
- They are setting up

for a sushi
demonstration tonight.

Oh, and next week,
Chef Donovan Price is coming

to make something
from his new cookbook.

World-renowned pastry chef
Donovan Price?

Mm-hmm, the one and only.

Wow.

What?

It's amazing.

Thanks.

What's a guy gotta do to get
some food around here?

- Oh, you're ready for lunch?
- Oh, yeah, I've basically

been drooling ever since
I walked in here.

Okay, well, you've gotta try
our chicken parm sandwich,

you'll never be able to guess
the secret ingredient.

You know I cook
for a living, right?

Yes, it'll be
very embarrassing
if you can't get it.

Fair enough.

Pretty good, huh?

(sighing)

It was horrible.
(laughing)

Are you ready to guess?

- Oh, it's too easy.
- We'll see.

- There's a miso paste inside.
- Ah, dammit!

You know, I had to eat three
of those before I got it?

Yeah, well, I have a more
sophisticated palate than you.

You wanted to discuss the menu?

Yes, the signature dish.

Why can't we have the fritters
and the rigatoni?

Because there can only be one.

I am the marketing genius, remember?

You are a genius
at being stubborn.

I prefer strong-willed.

Ah, well, it's no wonder
you can't find a date.

(laughing)

I can say the same thing
for you.

I actually happen
to have a very promising date

coming up with one
of Nolan's colleagues.

Well, I have a date tonight
too with one of Evie's clients.

Alright, I'm sure
you'll find fault in him.

What is that supposed
to mean?

- It means you're too picky.
- So are you.

Look, you have tons
of potential suitors

around here.

Captain blue suit right there.

He's eating mac and cheese.

Yeah, so, what's wrong
with mac and cheese?

It's from the kid's menu,
he's immature.

See?

Okay, Mr. Easy-going.

Oh, what about her?

Ugh, she's eating salad.

And?

It's plain green salad,
she's boring.

Okay, so,
look who's picky now.

Okay, so, here this is a guy
who knows what to order

and it looks like he works out.
- Mm-hmm.

- Is that...
- Hey, Nolan!

Over here.
- Oh, hey.

Gemma was just telling me
how great that suit fits.

- Thank you.
- Hi, Nolan.

Gemma, it's been a while.

Hey, let me grab you
a chair, sit down.

No, here, take my seat,
I have to go back to work.

Thanks.

Hey, man, you still gonna
be hungry

for La Palette tonight? That's
where you're meeting Ally.

- Are you kidding, La Palette?
- Why, is that bad?

Oh, that's just where
I'm going tonight.

Well, I guess,
I'll see you tonight then.

Nice to see you, Nolan,
enjoy your lunch.

Excellent choice by the way.
- Thank you.

She looks really good...

And so do you.

(clearing throat)

Mmm, that's delicious.

It's the miso paste.

(soft music)

Oh, hey, how's it going?

Ugh, my date won't stop
checking the score of some
soccer game.

I don't think
his team's winning.

How about you?

My date is not going
any better.

What's wrong?
(camera shutter clicking)

She won't stop taking
pictures of herself.

Hey, you want
to get out of here?

- What, how?
- I have an idea, you in?

Okay, here's what
we're going to do...

(laughing)
- I can't believe that worked.

- I know.
- I kind of feel bad.

Oh, by all means,
you're free to go back.

Well, I don't feel that bad.
(chuckling)

But I am hungry, we didn't even
make it to the main course.

You know what? Follow me,
I know just the place.

(soft music)

Alright, looks like it's ready.

Oh.

If you don't mind.

Smells amazing.

I hope you're ready for this.

(soft music)

There you are.
- Oh, it looks incredible.

- May I?
- Please, you're the chef.

Alright.

Okay, moment of truth.

(chuckling)
- Yeah?

(chuckling)

It's amazing.

Rigatoni a la Rosa.

Fine, you win, there can be
two signature dishes.

(laughing)

Mmm. Wow, seeing you cook

really makes me want
to bake again.

Well, then do it.

I mean, you're the one
that told that me life is short,

we have to make time
for the things that we love
to do, right?

You're right.

This needs...

...a hint of pepper.

Do you know what? I think
I remember where it is.

Oh my gosh!
(chuckling)

Max, you have to come see this.

(laughing)

(soft music)

Oh, that's...

Are you kidding me?

Don't laugh, it's not funny,
it's everywhere!

I mean, you look great
with grey hair.

- Is it in my hair?
- Just a little bit.

(laughing)
- I want to see what

you look like with grey hair.
- No, no, no!

- Yeah.
- Oh!

Yeah, yeah, there you go!
- Stop!

No, no, no.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Wait, wait, wait!
(clattering)

Is somebody here?

Wait here,
I'll go check it out.

No, I'm going with you.

Here, take this.

(♪)

(clattering)

Great, no one
will mess with us now.

Oh, stop it, let's go.

(♪)

Thanks for meeting me here
at this hour, Sal.

So, what do you think?

I'm thinking two to three days
tops to demolish everything.

- Great, I have all the permits.
- Excellent.

Santos?

Nice to see you both again.

Uh, put your weapons down.

What are you doing here?

I could ask you
the same thing, you know,

I'm pretty sure you're supposed
to bake with flour not wear it.

(laughing)

Sal's walking me
through the demolition.

I still don't understand
why you want to tear
this place down.

Like I told you, it's not
personal, it's business.

You're wrong, it is personal.

Don't waste your breath,
Gemma, let's go.

(♪)

(clattering)

(soft music)

(sighing)

Uh-oh, is it
the balloon guy again?

(sighing)
- No, not this time,

I have a problem.
- What happened?

The bakery marked down the
wrong date for the mini cakes,

it's too late
to call another place.

I don't know
what I'm going to do.

Well, I have an idea.

Why don't I make
the cakes for you?

- Really?
- Seeing Max in the kitchen

inspired me to bake again
and I think

this is the perfect excuse.
Plus, you are always looking out

for me, so now it's my turn.
- Thank you!

You have no idea
how relieved I am.

So, you've been spending
a lot of time with Max?

Yeah, he's helping
with the memorial.

Mm-hmm?

We're just friends, what?

That's it.
- I didn't say anything.

That can't be right,
what does that say?

Bungee jumping?

Evie!

Chad looks so cute
in his profile pic

and he says he loves an
adventure, I couldn't say no.

So much for
looking out for me.

Well, maybe you shouldn't eat
any more candy.

It's probably best to go
on an empty stomach, you know,

in case you get nauseous.

See, I am looking out for you.

Hey.

How'd it go last night?

It was great, this lasagna
was a huge hit.

- You could at least heat it up.
- Just as good cold.

My client loved it too,
he said it was the best
lasagna he ever had.

I can tell it worked already.

It's almost eight
and he hasn't sent me

any messages yet, I would've had
at least two requests by now.

Well, I'm glad I could help.

- Did you just go out for a run?
- Yeah.

Wow, I'm impressed.
Was that a warm-up or a...

- What do you mean?
- Well, you're signed up

for a singles running club
this morning.

I'm dropping you off
on my way to work.

- No way!
- Dude.

I'm exhausted.

It's on the spread sheet, so.

(sighing)

This dating is killing me.

Hey, you can't give up now,

think about the restaurant.
You want it to go to Santos?

I wonder how Gemma's managing.

- Are you into her?
- What, Gemma? No.

Because that would be the
easiest way to the restaurant.

No, I told you, we're friends.

Okay, like, don't you think that
if something were to happen,

it would've happened
a long time ago?

Okay, well, maybe I should
take her out?

Really?

Why not?

Well, I just... I didn't
think she was your type.

What, beautiful
and smart aren't my type?

Well, then, I didn't think
that you were her type.

(chuckling)
- Hey, I guess there's only

one way to find out, huh?
- Yeah.

(phone chiming)

Ready to go?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, give me a second.

(humming)

Kat, it's Gemma.

Yes, I know you have
caller ID.

Look, I have decided

that I am not going to go
to the event tonight.

Can you do the introduction
for me?

I know you're ready.

No, I'm not sending a limo
to pick you up.

Okay, great.

Thank you, good luck.

Alright, I will see you
tomorrow.

(humming)

- Someone looks happy.
- Max, what are you doing here?

I was just dropping off the
extra chairs for the memorial.

Those look amazing.
Need any help?

I could use
some more frosting.

Okay, I'll unload
the rest of the chairs,
and then grab an apron.

(humming)

(birds chirping)

Okay, let's just go over it
one more time.

I posted the event
on social media and put up
posters around town.

How about the groceries?

Ordered and delivery
is confirmed.

Okay, Evie is also
on the decorations,

the extra chairs
are in the storage room,
thank you for that.

No problem.
(yawning)

I think that's it.

Oh my gosh, this coffee's
the only thing keeping me
awake right now.

I'd be offended if I wasn't
just as exhausted.

Thank you for staying
all the way to the end,

I may have gotten carried away.

No, baking another dozen at
midnight is totally reasonable.

Okay, you know what?

That was your fault
because you're the one

who told me about Rosa's carrot
cake recipe, I did it for Rosa.

Well, it was nice
seeing you bake again.

Yeah, it felt incredible.

I can't let it go
that long again.

Well, hopefully,
it won't happen.

Thought you could use a treat
with all that coffee.

Mmm, please, go ahead.

I couldn't, you first.

Oh, after all your help last
night I just... I insist.

Oh God.

Please, I insist.

Growing boy.

I'm done growing.
(laughing)

I still cannot believe
that you are a principal
at Pleasant Elementary.

I would love to go back
and see how things have changed,

I mean, it was so big back then.

You're welcome
to visit anytime.

Thank you, I might
take you up on that.

(groaning)
Is everything okay?

Hmm...

I'll be fine,
I'll be fine.

(groaning)
- Okay.

Are you sure?
You don't look okay.

Was there dairy
in the salad or...

I don't know.
Do you have an intolerance?

I should've checked.
- I should've mentioned it.

(chuckling)
(groaning)

Oh wait, the um... the salad
dressing has cream in it.

(stomach growling)

I'm sorry, I'm going
to have to go.

- Right now?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, okay, um...

(panting)

(sighing)
- Hey, what did you do

to that poor guy?

I've never seen anybody
run so fast.

Perfect.

What are you doing here?

Hey, I'm innocent,

I assume zero responsibility.

I didn't know he had
a dairy intolerance.

(laughing)

It was actually going really
well, he's a really nice guy.

It'd be a shame to watch
all this food go to waste.

Guess what?

I don't have any intolerances.

No, but you can certainly
be intolerable.

(chuckles)

Oh.

- Stop.
- Mm-hmm.

- Is this Rosa's tiramisu?
- Mm-hmm.

You've been holding out
on me this whole time?

Well...

It's a cute picnic basket.

(soft music)

Needs more espresso.

I followed Rosa's recipe.

Well, then you didn't dunk
the lady fingers long enough.

Well, it doesn't seem
to be bothering you.

Nope.

This is nice.

Yeah, it is, it's nice
to just relax

and not have to do any of that
awkward first date small talk.

Oh, I feel like I have
the first date script just
rehearsed in my head.

Yeah.

You know, it really
wasn't nice of you

to poison your friend there.
- I didn't poison Gabe.

(chuckling)

Oh.

Sorry, go ahead.
- Thanks, I appreciate it.

(sniffs)

God, this is exactly
what I needed.

Oh, hey, I think I got a way
to figure out your um,

your bad dating streak.

It was going well with Gabe.

Oh yeah, but I don't think
he's coming back.

I'm listening.

You know what?
Don't worry about it,

it's all good,
forget I said anything.

No, just tell me.

I think Nolan wants to go
on a date with you.

- Oh!
- See, you know what,

it's a bad idea,
don't worry about it.

No, I'm... I'm just surprised.

Yeah, I was kind
of surprised too, actually.

I just... I never really
saw him that way.

If you think
it's a good idea...

You think it's a good idea, right?

I just can't think of a good
reason not to, I guess.

And I can vouch for him.

Great, Evie is always
telling me I need to be
open to everyone.

That's good advice,
maybe I should go
on a date with her.

That's a great idea.

- What is?
- I'll set you up with Evie.

I mean, I can vouch
for her too.

I don't know.

Can you think
of a good reason not to?

I guess not.

Then it's set,
we will do a double date.

(soft music)

Do we really have to make
a special playlist

just for this date?
- I'm going to pretend

you didn't say that,
it was pump-up music

meant for us to, you know,
get in a good mood.

Clearly, someone isn't.
Are... are you nervous?

No, no, I don't know, maybe.

Well, you got nothing
to be nervous about,

you already know Nolan.
- I guess.

Yeah, and you know,
experts say,

"Couples who are friends first

have a better chance
of getting married."

Did you just make that up?

Yeah, but it makes sense, right?

Yeah, but I'm not really
friends with Nolan,

like I don't even
know him that well.

Okay, forget
about the experts.

All that matters
is that he's interested
in getting to know you.

And besides, I'm the one
who's going in blank.

Oh my gosh, I think you're
really going to like Max,

though, even I can admit
that he can be charming.

Oh, there they are.

(indistinct chatter)
- Oh, he's hot.

- Right?
- I can appreciate a man

who wears a tank top
on a first date.

No, that's Nolan,
Max is the one in the hat.

I thought you said
he had hair.

He does,
it's just a sunny day.

Well, isn't there
some rule about wearing
a hat on a first date?

You were going to wear
that hat that Faye gave you
from the vintage shop.

Okay, that is different,
fashion has no rules, Gemma.

Alright, forget about it,
let's just go.

Okay, wait, wait, wait.

What is it now,
you don't like his shoes?

No.

Well, I can't see them
from over here.

I just want to say,
have an open mind.

Okay.

Yeah, just like, be yourself.

- Yeah, I got it.
- No pressure, have fun.

Okay, Evie, I got it,
I got it, let's just go.

Okay, let's go meet
our future husbands.

What happened to
"no pressure"?

I want a husband.

Oh, man, these are delicious.

(♪)

You won't have
any of those to bring home.

That's okay, I barely have
fresh produce at my place,

or anything for that matter.

So, what's the name of
the restaurant you work for?

Do you think they're having
a good time?

My fridge is usually
pretty bare.

You don't like to cook?

No, not really, if I'm not out
for a dinner with a client,

then I'll just order take out.
(scoffs)

Oh, yeah,
they look okay to me.

Should we check on them?

No, I'm sure they're fine.

So, how many siblings
do you have?

- Hi.
- Hey.

- Hi.
- Sorry, what were you saying?

The name of the restaurant
that you work at.

It's Eleven Underground.

Oh, no way!
I love that place.

- Yeah?
- I helped plan a party

a few years ago in New York
and my client took me there.

The food is so different.

Yeah, I mean, I work there
and I don't get it.

I love to cook.

Oh, yeah, I mean,
I understand that,

just for me, it's a bit of
a waste of time. No offence.

Oh, none taken.

(♪)

Well, I guess I appreciate
the creativity, right?

It's fun, inventive.

I prefer classic cuisine.

Yeah, hm...

Aren't you going to try one?

Ah, ha, ha!

No, no way, not without
washing them first.

I'm picky about my produce.

- Yeah, and other things.
- What's that?

- What?
- Oh, you want to sit down?

Oh, what? Oh.

Okay...

- Then we've got one for you.
- Thank you.

- One for you.
- Hey, thanks for bringing

these, Gem.
- Oh, you are so welcome,

I picked them up from Indulge
earlier this morning.

I hope everybody is okay
with turkey and brie,

you're favourite.

- You remembered.
- Works for me,

I will eat pretty much
anything as long as I don't
have to make it myself.

(chuckles)
- Same with me,

you should see the leftovers
I bring home after events.

It's one of the perks of being
a party planner,

you don't really have
to cook for yourself,

and if it wasn't for Gemma,

I'd probably store
my shoes in the oven.

She would.
(chuckles)

Hey, did you wear sunscreen?

Yeah.
(Gemma): No.

Oh, you mean Gemma.

Just 'cause she burns
so easily, here put that on.

- Are you sure?
- I insist.

- You do have hair.
- What?

Hey, see, look at that,
suits you.

(laughing)
- You know, I think I have

some sunscreen in the car.
Gemma, will you come with me?

- I... I think I'm okay now.
- No, I think you need

to put on some sunscreen.
- Well, can you just go get it?

No. I need your help.
(Gemma): Oh.

Okay, we will be right back.

- Don't eat this.
- Well, I might, see you soon.

Okay, bye.

- What is up with you?
- This is not working.

- What's wrong?
- Max is preoccupied,

I think he's into you.

How are things going with Gem?

I don't know,
I don't think we're clicking.

We're probably just
better off as friends.

That's uh... that's too bad.

I don't believe you.

Oh my gosh, don't be
ridiculous, this was his idea.

Well, something
is distracting him.

Okay, well, you're the one
who always says,

"You need to be open-minded."

You need to take
your own advice.

Fine, I'll try,

but I'm usually never wrong
about these things.

(scoffs)

I've been picking up
this weird vibe

from you all day.
Are you... are you sure
you're not into Gemma?

No, I told you,
Gemma and I are just friends.

I mean, why would I
set you up with her

and agree to go on a date
with her best friend?

Alright, if you say so.

How's it going with Nolan?

Um... Yeah, we don't seem
to have a lot in common.

So what? You know what
they say, "opposites attract."

I know, but he thinks cooking
is a waste of time.

It is a waste of time.

Look, I don't need someone
who loves to cook,

but I need someone
who appreciates what I do.

Yeah, and I certainly
appreciate his biceps.

Yeah, you said.
(laughing)

Sorry.

Give it a rest, let's go.

Hey, uh, how is Evie?
She's got a really good energy.

Evie's nice.

But?

(sighs)
- I don't know, man.

Dude, the restaurant
is on the line,

you should at least
give her a chance.

I have to get married.

I mean...

Shouldn't it
be the right person?

- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.

Have you tried these
strawberries, though?

No, I... Not without
washing them.

- Should I be washing these?
- Mm-hmm.

What are you going
to do with all those?

Um, I'm thinking I'm going
to make a crostata.

Uh, whatwhata?

Oh, it's basically just
a fancy way to say "tart".

Oh, I'm glad you asked

because I can't keep up
with these foodies.

Rosa used to make
the best crostata.

Yes, she did, you know what
the trick is?

You have to use
room temperature butter.

No, you definitely
want to use cold butter.

You also don't want to listen
to somebody who doesn't put

enough espresso in her tiramisu.
- Wow!

What, hey,
who's the chef here?

Oh, sous-chef, right?

Oh, we're going to go
down that road. Okay, well,

I can't in good conscience
let you destroy these
strawberries, so...

- What? Give those back!
- You're gonna have to catch me.

- Yeah, I'm going to get them.
- You ain't catching nobody.

(laughing)
- And they're off. Guys!

Max!

(laughing)

Is there something
going on with these two?

Yes, I don't know why Gemma's
being so stubborn.

Yeah, same with Max.

Maybe they could use our help.

What do you have in mind?

I've got some ideas.

(laughter)
- Stop.

But I'll probably
need your help.

Okay. Yeah, I should take
your number then, you know,

for planning purposes.

We should probably
get started right away.

- Yeah, immediately.
- Yeah, immediately.

(phone ringing)

Hi, I've been meaning
to call you.

Kat, can we make sure
there's enough signed copies

of Donovan's book
at the event tonight?

What?

The flu, how bad is it?

Okay, well, I didn't need
those very specific details.

Oh, it's going to be impossible
to find a replacement

for tonight.

Wait, I have an idea.

(beep)

(knocking)

Coming!

(knocking)
I'm coming.

(knocking)
Yes, yes, yes.

- Hi.
- Hi, what's the emergency?

Um...

Uh, I need a... I need a favour,
Donovan Price has the flu.

So, you came all the way over
here to tell me that in person?

Well, my event is tonight
and I wonder if you can
fill in him for him.

And I didn't want
to give you a chance to come up
with some lame excuse.

- I'm doing laundry.
- Like that.

Though that would explain
the lack of clothes.

Okay, what's in it for me?

Well, I will be posting
the event on socials,

so it could be really good
for your career.

Not to mention there's going to
be a lot of single ladies there.

You're going to have
to do better than that.

You want more? Um...

I'll bake something
for you.

Hmm?

Oh, twelve cannolis
from scratch,

none of that
store-bought stuff.

Yeah.

Yes, of course.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Alright, you got
yourself a deal, then.

What time
do you want me there?

Oh, I'll text you
all the details, yeah.

- Okay.
- Thank you!

You're a life saver!
- You sure you want to do that?

Um.

Maybe just... Yeah.

And clothes are mandatory.
- Ha, thought they might be.

So... see you tonight.

Yes, you will.

(upbeat music)

Now that we have
our first layer,

what we're going to do is repeat
the exact same process.

Like I said the first time,
it's very important

that when you dip
your lady fingers

that you dip long enough that
they can absorb the mixture,

but not too long
because then they'll fall apart.

I recently had a conversation
with my friend

who didn't use enough
of the espresso mix,

it's very important to use
enough espresso mix.

Now, that our bottom layer
is completely covered,

we take the mascarpone, spread
it over top just like this.

Then you want to gently spread
an even layer over the top,

making sure not to distress
the fingers underneath.

So, now that we have
the completed two layers,

what you want to do is
take some cocoa powder...

...and chocolate shavings
and just dust the top layer
like this.

Voila.

You have yourself
a delicious tiramisu.

You want to throw this
in the fridge to chill

for about four hours which we're
going to do right after this.

Lucky for you,
we already have one chilled

in case anybody wants to try it.

Any questions?

Yes.
- Are you single?

I... am single.

(chuckles)

So am I.

(♪)

You were great tonight.

Yeah, I had a lot of fun,

it was really nice
making something, you know,
on my own terms.

Yeah, well, you should
only do that from now on.

Did you talk to your boss?

No, not yet.

What are you waiting for?

You should feel this good
all the time.

I appreciate the pep talk.

Hey, it's the least I can do,
you totally saved me tonight.

I could always
count on your help.

I think we make a good team.

I have a confession to make.

Yeah, you knew
all the single ladies

at tonight's event
were going to be seniors.

Two confessions.

(laughing)
- Okay, what's number two?

You were right. There was not
enough espresso in my tiramisu.

Yeah! I told you so.

No gloating 'cause it took
a lot for me to admit that.

Oh, before I forget, can I get
a selfie with the chef?

Yes, of course.

(camera shutter clicking)
- I'm sorry,

I just forgot my coat. And you,
mm-hmm, you were fabulous.

I'm Faye, by the way.
- I'm Max.

Owner of the new vintage shop.

Oh, it's so great
to finally meet you.

I'm Gemma, Evie's best friend.

I made the mini cakes
for your grand opening.

Oh, honey, people are still
talking about those.

No, you, you really should go
into business for yourself.

The red velvet, mmm,
especially divine.

Wow, thank you.

I mean, I'm so glad
everybody liked them

and I'm sorry I couldn't
make it on the day.

Oh well, just promise me that
you'll come by and see me soon.

- I promise.
- Would you mind

taking a picture of us?

With me?

Oh yes, I know
a future Michelin-star chef

when I see him.
(camera shutter clicking)

Look at the cute couple.

There you go.
- Thank you, I'll see you soon.

Nice to meet you.

Hey, look at that smock.

You know, I'm starting to
think you're following me.

Well, for your information
I'm meeting someone here.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

I am too.

Looks like you're stuck
beside me.

Hey, how do I look,
do I look like Da Vinci

about to paint the Mona Lisa?
(chuckling)

It's on backwards,
the pockets are supposed
to go on the front.

- Oh.
- Okay, since I am stuck

beside you, I have
to make one rule,

you can't make fun
of my painting.

(chuckles)
- I'll try my best.

I'm just kidding.
Truth be told I'm a little
out of my element here too.

Yeah, surprised
to see you here.

Nolan set it up
and he was unusually
adamant that I come.

Truth be told,
he was acting kind of strange.

- Oh yeah?
- Yeah.

That's weird, Evie seemed
a bit off today too.

- Yeah?
- Huh.

Do you think
our plan is working?

I think it's already
a success. Don't you?

(clinking)

(laughing)
- What?

- What are those supposed to be?
- It's the bird!

(scoffing)
Okay, look at all those colours,

it looks like a unicorn
threw up on your canvas.

What?
No, it's really good.

You got paint on your cheek.

- What, where?
- Right there.

- Right here?
- Here, I'll get it.

- Right here?
- No, that's not... Right here.

Close your eyes.

Max?

Joley, what are you
doing here?

I promised my friend
I'd pop in and say hi.

Are you back in town
for good now or?

No, I'm just visiting.

This is crazy, I was just
thinking about you.

(chuckles)
- Oh, hey, Joley,

you remember Gemma, right?
- It's just like old times.

Wait, are you together?

- Us? No, no.
- No, no.

Our dates didn't show up.

Hey, why don't you
take my spot?

It'll be great to catch up.
- You sure?

Yeah, I mean, of course,
we're sure. Right, Gem?

Well, I actually
just remembered

that I have a meeting,
an early meeting tomorrow

and... I have to...
I have to go.

- Are you sure?
- Yes, you guys probably

have so much to catch up on,
so you stay and have fun.

Joley, it was nice to see you.
- You too.

Gem!

Yeah?

You forgot your painting.

Oh, right, yeah, ah.

I'm so glad I ran into you.

Okay, this might sound
a little crazy, but I have
a favour to ask.

Yeah, shoot.
What's up?

Would you go to
a dance class with me?

Yeah, sure, that's exciting.

Thank you, I'm so excited.

What?

You look very handsome,
it's distracting.

I think working from here
might've been a bad idea.

Oh.

Eve, it's me.
I think I forgot...

Nolan?

Hi, Gemma.

Are you two...

Since the strawberry picking.

I was going to tell you.

So, the double date
was a success after all.

I, uh... I hope
this isn't awkward.

Are you kidding?
No, I'm so happy for you two.

Oh, here it is.

This is all I needed, I will
let you two get back to it.

You look very cute together.

She thinks we're cute.

(♪)

What are you trying
to do here?

I want to push
these tables together.

Well, don't worry about it,
I can handle it,

I got the sketch
that you drew me.

(sighing)

You don't trust me?

What's the matter?

Uh.
(sighing)

- Gemma.
- What?

- What's the matter?
- It's not working,

I need a clear pathway
to the buffet table.

The memorial
isn't for three days.

It has to be perfect.

- What's really wrong?
- Can you pass me that chair?

Hey.

Oh, great, just the person
I wanted to see.

I hired a company
to remove the furniture,
you don't have to do that.

It's for the memorial.

Yeah, I saw the sign.

Maybe I'll drop by
since it's the last time

this place will be a restaurant.

Unless there's something
I should know.

Uh, I totally forgot,
I have work-meeting thing,
you can handle the rest.

Was it something I said?

Wow, Gem, you look gorgeous.

I don't know if I'm in
the mood for ballroom dancing.

It'll be fun! And just think,
you'll be ready

when one of those reality dance
shows you love come calling.

(laughs)
- Come with me.

I can't, I'm meeting
a potential new client.

I'm running out of time.

That's why you can't
give up now,

you never know
who might show up.

It only takes one
when you least expect it.

- Like with you and Nolan?
- Exactly.

Now you better get going.
- Okay, wish me luck.

You won't need it, I have
a good feeling about tonight.

(soft music)

(indistinct chatter)

- Hi.
- Oh.

You look beautiful.

- Thanks.
- You know, if I didn't know

any better, I'd say
that you're following me.

- Evie.
- What's that?

- Oh, nothing.
- Who's ready to dance?

(both): Rory?

I have many secrets you
don't know about.

Everyone, find a partner.

Um...

Should we...
- If you don't, I will.

Gem, there's something
that I wanted to...

Uh, uh, shh.

Dance is the language of love,

romance. No more talking,
use your bodies.

Now, we dance.
Gentlemen, left foot forward.

Ladies, right foot back
and quick, quick, slow.

Quick, quick, slow.
Quick, quick, slow.

And don't be afraid
to use your hips.

(chuckling)

- How is this?
- Yeah, you're perfect.

Yeah? What did you want
to tell me?

I don't remember.

I'm sorry I'm late,
did you get my text?

I got stuck at work.

Hey, Gemma, I didn't expect
to see you here.

Less talking, more dancing.

Oh, I'm with him,
he's my partner.

Looks like you're stuck
with me, gorgeous.

Uh, so... It's your right foot
back, my left foot forward.

Okay.

Like this.

You okay?

Yeah, I'll be fine.

Are you sure, honey?

Thank you so much
for doing this,

my fiancé is going to be
so excited.

Hmm? Mm-hmm.

Two, slow, three.

(laughing)

Gemma, where are you?

You're not going
to believe this,

I was asked to plan
a sweet-16 party for a dog.

There you are, did you hear me?

Oh no, what's wrong?

I like him.

Max?

I knew it.
Finally, you admit it.

I know you set me up.

All your talk of,
"Oh, oh, it only takes one
when you least expect it."

I guess all your
good feelings were wrong.

I did it because I know there
was something between you.

Not something, someone.

I'm not following.

Max's ex-girlfriend,
Joley was there.

Her and Max were partners.

Oh no.

I feel like such an idiot.

I think they're back together.

You don't know that
and it's not too late.

You need to tell
Max how you feel.

What is the point?

Come here.

You know what?

I think you need a break

from all these dates and
we need a girls' day.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, just you and me
and no dates.

I could really use that.

Did you just say you're planning
a party for a dog?

(laughing)

Yeah.

Just wait until you see
how this place looks

now that it's open,
you're going to love it.

What do you think?
With the scarf?

Or without?

With the scarf.

You're right,
this is fabulous.

Wow, your store is incredible.

Yeah, it is spectacular,
isn't it?

And it's always been
a dream of mine.

And it's never too late
to do what you love, right?

So, what can I do for you?

We're looking
for a bit of fun.

Oh, well, you've come
to the right place, doll.

It's pretty quiet right now,
so why don't you go, go.

And holler if you need me.

(upbeat music)

(Gemma): Ready?
(Evie): Yep!

(Gemma): One, two, three.

You look awesome!

(♪)

Ah!

Another one?

- Yes!
- Yes.

(Gemma): One, two, three.

Ah! Oh my God,
the mirror.

Whoa.

Whoa, whoa, look at her.

- Dangerous.
- Ah!

(laughing)
Oh my God.

(gasp)
- I knew that you'd come back.

And I got the tiara that you
tried on, right over here.

Did you bring
the veil this time?

- I did.
- Oh, good!

Oh, this is so pretty.

And? What do you think?

Oh, it's spectacular.

(Joley): I'll take it.
(Faye): Oh good.

Oh, I'm so happy for you.

You knew it'd be perfect,
didn't you?

I did.
(laughing)

Thank you.

Oh, and good luck
with the wedding

and with the move to New York.

- Thank you.
- How exciting!

Hey...

Are you okay?

I thought he liked me.

Oh, this is all my fault.

He's getting married
and I... I want it to be me.

I'm sorry.

What am I going to do?

I don't want to lose him
and the restaurant.

(crying)

(phone ringing)

Gemma, I was wondering
when I would hear from you.

I hope it's good news.

Is there any way
you can extend the deadline?

I'm sorry Gemma,
there's nothing I can do.

I just... if I had more time.

I understand completely,
but these are Rosa's wishes.

And besides, I've already
heard from Santos.

There's no way he'll budge
on his plans.

What about Max?

Well, you'll have
to ask him yourself.

I think he may have
met the terms.

Well, I'm sorry
to see it end this way.

Me too, I wish
I had better news.

I know how much Rosa's
restaurant means to you,

I just wish there
was more I could do.

I understand.
Thanks, Marvin.

(soft music)

(sighing)

So, Cassandra said we're not
doing it right.

(laughing)

(phone chiming)

Ah. "You have to come back
for the new menu.

Charcoal sushi donuts."

Wow, even I think
that sounds awful.

I can't work there anymore.

These last few weeks
have really reminded me

why I wanted to be a chef
in the first place.

Cooking Rosa's dishes,
I don't know, it reenergized me.

I don't want to do these
science experiments anymore.

Hey, that's great, what made
you finally make your decision?

Gemma.

She helped me see it clearly.

Now I know what I want
and I know that Rosa

would want this for me, despite
what happens to the restaurant.

- I'm happy for you, bro.
- Thanks, man.

When are you going
to go tell your boss?

I'm going to go there after
the memorial, put my notice.

Can you really eat charcoal?

Oh, good, you're still here.

Those are beautiful.

Who is Gabe?

(soft music)

(gasps)

Happy birthday!

(trumpet)

I'm just going
to go back to bed.

Oh, then I guess
you don't want your favourite

lemon ricotta pancakes
with raspberry compote.

Did you make these?

Not technically, I ordered
them, does that count?

It counts.

I knew they would get you
into the birthday spirit.

And besides, you have a memorial
to get ready for.

Memorial, with Max, ugh...

I just want to go to sleep and
wait till it's all over.

(trumpet)

I'm not going to let you
feel sorry for yourself,

that is not what Rosa
would've wanted.

Now, eat your pancakes
before I eat another one.

- Another one?
- Eat!

I've already had like,
four anyways.

Are you sure you're making
the right decision?

I've gotten used
to having you here, bro.

Yeah, well, the sooner
I tell my boss the better.

And there's nothing
really keeping me here
anymore, you know?

It'd be nice if things
turned out differently.

Hey, you can't say
we didn't try?

It's been a wild few weeks,
thanks for everything.

Hey.

The couch is yours
any time you want it.

- Thank you.
- I'll see you at the memorial.

Just let me have a peak,
it'll make me feel better.

I knew I shouldn't have
asked you to come with me.

Well, I didn't want
to be alone.

Aw.

(Joley): I really liked it.

Ow, what was that for?

- It's her, it's Joley.
- What?

Oh, great handbag. Ouch!

Gemma.

Gemma?

Hey, we keep running
into each other.

Hi, um... Joley, this is
my best friend Evie.

(Evie): Hi.
- Nice to meet you.

This is Mateo, my fiancé.

Fiancé?

Yeah, I just love
saying the word "fiancé".

Oh, please don't mention
where you saw me

the other night, it's a surprise
for the wedding.

Are you moving to New York?

Yeah, after the wedding,
how did you know?

Oh, Max must've told you.

We know each other
from high school, I was
so jealous of Gemma.

- You were?
- Yeah, I thought Max

liked you more than a friend.

That's why we broke up.

I was so sure
you'd end up together.

(laughing)

I have... I have to go.

Very nice to meet you
and good luck on the wedding.

I think I have to...
I have to go.

(knocking)

Coming!

Hey.

Max?

Max?

He's not here?

Yeah, I've could've
told you that.

- Where is he?
- He's already at Rosa's.

Is he leaving?

Yeah, right after
the memorial.

I have to talk to him.

Nice to see you too!

(♪)

Hi.

It's beautiful.

The dining room
is almost ready.

I'm just finishing up the patio.

I'm glad you like it.

Elegant, just like Rosa.

I can't thank you enough
for everything you've done.

I'm so lucky to have you.

Thank me later, Max is inside.

Go tell him how you feel.
- I'm nervous.

I've got a good feeling
about this.

Okay, go, go, now!

(soft music)

I wasn't expecting you
this early.

(Gemma): It looks incredible,
Rosa would be so happy.

Happy birthday, Gem.

(soft music)

"Dear Gemma, I know
it's not Rosa's,

but I hope it comes close.
Happy birthday. Love, Max."

(soft music)

I can't believe you did this.

I thought it'd be nice to keep
the tradition going.

I love it.

So, are you checking in on me?

Tables match your sketch
and I stuck to the menu
that we decided on.

No, everything is perfect,
I trust you.

Then why are you here
so early?

I have been looking for you.

I've been here this
whole time.

I ran into Joley
and her fiancé.

I didn't know she was engaged.

I thought I lost you again,
I thought...

You thought what?

I thought you were
in love with her.

That's impossible,
I'm in love with you.

I love you, too.

What about Gabe?

(chuckling)

I was only dating him because
I thought you were taken.

Well...

Wow.

(laughing)

Gemma...

These last few weeks
have been crazy but incredible.

I never could've imagined
you and I ending up

in this restaurant again
after this many years.

- Yeah.
- But here we are.

And I feel like the luckiest
guy in the world.

There is no one
I would rather argue over
recipes with than you.

And promise me that I never
have to go on another date

with anyone ever again, but you.
(laughing)

Will you marry me?

Yes, yes, I will marry...
(laughing)

Okay, alright. Hold it,
don't move, one second.

(exhales)

Did I not tell you
that rigatoni a la Rosa

would be the best
signature dish?

One of the signature dishes.

(laughing)

(laughing)

We're engaged!

(cheering)
- We're so excited for you guys!

Congratulations!
Buddy, come here!

(laughing)
- Bring it in.

(Nolan): Aw, I'm so happy
for you guys.

Marvin.

I asked Nolan to bring him,

to officiate your wedding.
- Here?

You only have
a few hours left.

Let's get to it.
(Gemma): Okay.

I was hoping things would end
this way and so was Rosa.

What do you mean?

Well, she left
this letter with her will,

it's to both of you.

Oh.

"My dearest Gemma and Max,

true love is like a good recipe.

You need the right ingredients
and cooking time

to produce the most
delicious result.

In time, I knew you would
discover that you are

the perfect ingredients
for each other

and will make a lifetime
of recipes together.

Just remember to put enough
espresso in the tiramisu.

(laughing)

All my love, Rosa."
