I gave you the wine list,

I gave you the name.

Just give me this one thing, Pete, please.

- Fine, but if I don't like what she does,

I get a veto.

- Of course.

- And, don't call me Pete.

- Sure, whatever.

- Hey.

Don't let her get in your head.

We are not changing the menu!

- Gillian, hey.

- Thanks for meeting me.

- Of course, no problem.

Are you sure you don't

want me to cook for you?

- Oh no, not yet.

I want you to show me around first.

- Show you around, like the city?

- Not quite.

Let's say you had two hours left.

- To do what?

- To live.

Giant monsters are gonna

come through the city

and destroy it.

- Okay.

I can only pick one?

- [Gillian] Yes.

- I can't stop and grab a drink.

(laughing)

- No.

- All right.

I got one.

- You got one?

- Yeah.

- Okay what is it?

- Well why don't I just show you?

- Okay.

- Come on.

- You brought me here.

- [Mark] I remember.

- I think it made all the difference.

- To what?

- The design.

- It was your game.

I was just playing along.

- It was more than that.

- I don't know what you want me to say.

Day one, and I could talk to you like...

I never talked to anybody like that.

- Neither have I.

(dramatic orchestral music)

- Well it's very unorthodox.

- But, I got some good stuff.

So it worked out pretty well.

- So what's next?

You're gonna walk all the

was to Sausalito with Peter?

- No.

He owns half that restaurant,

but he's not the heart

of that place, you are.

- But, you don't like my food.

- I've never tasted your food.

And, besides the restaurant

has to be a reflection

of who you are, and I'm

trying to figure that out.

- You think you've got me figured out?

- I have a head start.

- So I take you to a

park and Japanese place

and all of a sudden, you've got me pegged?

(clears throat)

- Cooking is the only thing

that makes sense to you.

Your dad was a chef, and that seems to be

the only thing you don't resent about him.

You've got a chip on your shoulder because

you seem to think that

he owes you something.

You opened a restaurant out of revenge,

but I think deep down you really love it.

You think that you're better than he is.

You're pretty much better than anyone

you've ever cooked for.

And, now it's time for

the world to take notice.

You're cocky, but it's

only because you think

you have to be.

- You kind of wear it like an apron,

but I can tell the way

that you talk about food

and eat food it's not because

it's about being the best,

it's about love.

And, I think you think

that if you have that,

you'll never be alone.

- Wow, you wrote all that in your book.

- Some of it, sorry.

- No.

Don't be.

- I should go.
