with truffled ragu.

I made it special for you.

That is very kind of you.

I'm.. I'm just not hungry.

I figured that.

But did you know that protein

is essential for a strong libido?

A study showed that women

who don't eat enough red meat

have weaker orgasms.

I don't eat meat.

I can tell that by looking at you,

but you haven't

tried my meat dishes.

(whispers)

My lighter.

(phone ringing)

(beep)

Hey, it's Eric.

Listen, they saw your reel.

They're gonna pass.

Unless you wanna

audition for the mother.

I'll speak to you later.

A**holes.

My kind of girl.

I love your column.

I try to make women feel

young and powerful.

We don't often

feel that way.

For someone who writes about sex,

I'm surprised you don't eat meat.

Really?

Half of India is vegetarian,

and they don't have

a problem reproducing.

But do they enjoy the sex?

Fred loved meat.

More than he loved me

apparently.

Oh, it's like this lamb

was born in this sauce.

Mmm, just try it.

Uh... Excuse me.

You have to eat

or you're gonna die.

(water running)

(vomiting)

(water running)

Saffron, you just...

Just,

you try to sneak one of these in?

. . . these in?

...one of these in?

Saffie, you just

get your weight down

and you try to sneak

one of these in?

You know, you have to

watch what you eat.

- No thanks.

- Saffie, try it.

You have any idea what I have

sacrificed for your career?

I love you.

Jack! How's it going?

- Sharon.

- Bob.

So this is little

Lady Saffron, huh?

You're even prettier

than your head shot.

No... no.

Too bad.

They make you so hot.

(chuckles)

Mmm.

Jack's right over there, babe.

He's a piggybank.

Why don't you go shake his tree?

Why don't we talk

about you, angel-face?

angel-face, angel-face...

How's Fred?

As far as I remember,

no man's ever lasted

more than six months

with you.

Do we have a new record?

Fred's infatuated with me.

There's no other woman

he'd shed blood for.

Oh, that's wonderful, sweetheart.

So do you have a job?

I'm preparing

my own cooking show.

You'll never guess

who my new neighbour is.

She lives right in my building.

Do you remember Saffron Nelson,

'Season of Love',

'Silent Laughter'?

'Twilight Pearl'!

She was so beautiful.

Oh, you must have watched

every single show.

Did you introduce yourself?

Introduce myself?

I am making her dinner!

So, can I meet her?

You know how it is

with celebrities.

They're very private.

You have to be respectful,

feel out the situation.

(giggling)

Mmm.

(giggling)

I've got it.

A bouillabaisse.

Today's mystery

ingredient says:

"I'm an introvert

who handles stress poorly."

"Eat me so you can

get laid real fast."

What am I?
