Woman: All I've ever wanted is
sparkling silven/vare,

beautiful crystal,
and someone to love.

Because to love and be loved
is the greatest gift.

Cooking is supposed to
make you feel something.

And if it makes you feel loved,

then that's
the most important thing.

Man: Amy, you're on
in three, two...

Woman: There is no love
as true as the love of food.

You with me?

I like to say-- forget love,
I'd rather fall in chocolate.

Mmmm.

The secret to a man's heart
is not through his stomach,

it's through his zipper.

Now, one of you
lucky audience members

is gonna join me for a meal
that will inspire you to orgasm.

Because that's what we do
on Amy's Food For Love.

(knocking)

Shit.

No solicitors, please.

I'm Detective Reynolds.

I'd like to ask you
some questions.

It's about your neighbour.

I'd just like to ask
a couple questions.

I'm sorry to interrupt you.

It looks like you might
be entertaining.

It's just a chocolate soufflé.
It'll be ready in ten minutes.

Oh, I don't do much dessert,
doctor's orders.

I won't tell if you won't.

Mmm...

Glass of Bordeaux?

Can't drink on the job,
but thank you.

Hmm.

So, uh, your neighbour
across the way in 302.

She's, uh,
come up missing.

Saffron?

She's a friend of yours?

Well, I wouldn't say
that we share secrets,

but we look out
for each other.

She didn't say anything to you
to lead you to believe

she was distressed,
maybe a fight with a lover?

She seemed fine
the last time I saw her.

Uh-huh.
And when was that?

Umm...

we had dinner
last week.

Did she have
any friends over or parties?

No, actually,
Saffron's pretty solitary.

Oh, a pretty girl like that.
And famous, I understand.

Though I don't go
to the movies much myself.

Well, like I said, I don't know much
about her private life.

This is Saffron Nelson?

Maybe. It's hard to see.

She's an actress,
so every time you see her, she's a...

different person.

So you've had
no contact with her

since your dinner
together?

You don't seem
too concerned.

Well, how do we know
that she's missing?

Look, Miss Elwood,
maybe I should be the detective here.

I think it'll all make sense
in the grand scheme of things.

- Do you mind?
- Oh.

So, last week, did you cook
for her here or did you order in?

Order in?
God, never.

Um, hmm, let's see.

Oh--

Shafer Farm's venison loin
with parsnip gratin

and onion confit.

Do you keep track of
everything you cook?

Do you keep track
of everything you ask?

I do everything I make
on a special occasion.

Are you a chef?

I'm preparing
my own cooking show.

Will you be writing up
your little cakes?

Soufflé.

And I don't know
if they're special enough yet.

Would you know of any other
friends of Miss Nelson

that I could
possibly call?

Honestly, detective,
I don't know if she has any.

If you think
of anything,

please feel free
to contact me...

personally.

Sure thing.

God, I can't believe
anything's happened to her.

In the throes of passion,
who gives the most?

The man or the woman?

Amy: Not the man,
that's for sure.

That's a great article,
one of her best.

Looks like she had
many talents.

She was tired of acting.

That's why she wrote
the advice columns.

She was tired of being
dependent on others.

She said that to you?

In so many words.

Suicide.

Is that possible?

And how is it that a woman
who looks like that had no lovers?

She gets a lot of phone calls
but she never answers.

She changes her number
all the time.

(phone ringing)

Used to bother my fiancé 'cause
you could hear it through the walls.

-(phone ringing)
-(beep)

Saffron, honey,
it's Christine.

I just spoke with
their casting director.

It's not looking good.

They need more
name value, A list,

you know the bullshit.
Call--

Okay, okay.

(muffled chatter)

It's a beast.

Might have to eighty-six
the damn door frame.

Everything
looks wonderful.

The treated concrete,
the stainless,

my kitchen lights,
remote control.

Well, you don't want
to strain yourself.

You went all out
for me, babe.

But this is all wrong.

Isn't it standard?

It's not forty.
It should be forty.

Amy, darling,
thirty-six is standard.

They gave you
standard height.

I like to be elevated when cooking,
if you know what I mean.

Heels add four inches,
so the island has to come up by four.

So spare no detail,
spare no expense.

Do you remember, Fred?

The kitchen
is my temple.

Yeah, cash-guzzling temple.

Here ya go, guy.
Come on.

I gotta go-

You know why
I love you, babe?

'Cause when we went to
our first dinner at Le Gourmand,

you said you could never be
with a woman who can't cook.

And what did I say?

You said that you could
never be with someone

who didn't appreciate
a meal 'made with love'.

I'm so glad you're
understanding.

So you'll get him to finish it
in three days, right'?

I got him this far, didn't I?

Dinner's at eight.

Amy: Sorry about all the noise.

Let me guess. Model?

More of a diva, I'd say.

(phone ringing)

I need you at eight sharp,
no delays.

The integrity of the meal
can't tolerate it.

Because today
on the menu, we have...

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Surprise me, babe.

You know I know
how to do that.

Right. Can't wait.

Bye.

Mmm.

You know, sometimes
I have to dig real deep

to find the spiritual
connection to

poached Dover Sole
over baby fennel.

Come on, you love all her
fancy chateau de chez moi meals.

The belly rules the mind.

No, her mind
rules your belly.

You could always join me
for takeout at the Red Lantern.

You know what they say
about fast food,

it's like pornography.

Not much of a substitute
for the real thing,

but ready and available
when you need it.

Hello.

(sigh)

Ames, this is
a big account.

It's a big fat account.

Big enough to pay for
all these renovations account.

Do you know how hard it is
to roast an organic partridge

without the proper
convection oven?

Honey, they fixed
my countertop, but--

Hey, buddy.

--The lighting
is all wrong.

Looks great to me.

Well, not when you're
standing behind the island.

It needs to be
more... glamorous.

Call the electrician.
No one listens to me.

Did you miss me?

I missed you.
That's my boy.

How were the truffles?
They were parigord.

The best.

Did they overpower
the partridge?

Definitely not.

Was the partridge young enough,
tender enough?

Just like you, babe.

Well, maybe not
quite that tender.

Are you sure I haven't
gotten too tough,

too meaty?

Well, it didn't seem that way to me,
last time I had a taste.

It's been a few days.
Maybe you should make sure.

Time to play
find the hidden spice.

(chuckling)

Are you focusing?

Mm-hm.

Sweet aroma.

Solid structure.

Come on, baby.
Let's go to the couch.

No, no,
let's stay here.

You can smell
the wild truffles.

Wild truffles, huh?

(moaning)

You like that?

(heavy breathing)

(moaning)

Ohh...

Oh! Oh, you found it!

(moaning)

That's the
missing spice.

-(crash)
_Qh__

on, Fred! (gasps)

Oh, God.

Hey. What are
you doing?

I gotta glue it
back together.

It's my
favourite set.

What about me?

I just don't understand
why Saffron would leave.

According to her agent,
she was up for a lot of parts,

her magazine articles
were gobbled up

bythousands
of women.

Agents will
say anything.

Another struggling
actress.

A bit shy
on the leading roles.

So you took an interest
in her career?

(beeping)

My oven.

Excuse me, detective,
I have a soufflé that needs rescuing.

Saffron: It wasn't my fault.

I would rather
DIE IN A GUTTER

than come back to
this hellhole!

It wasn't my fault!

I would rather
die in a gutter...

than come back to
this hellhole.

(muffled talking)

I would rather
die in a gutter

than come back to
this hellhole.

Okay.

You take me
for granted.

Half the entire staff
got laid off.

It wasn't my fault.

Ugh.

You take me
for granted.

Half the entire staff got laid off.
It wasn't my fault.

It wasn't my fault.

Half the entire staff
got laid off. It's not...

it-- It wasn't my fault.

UQhhh!

Ugh.

Fuck!

I can't do this.

I can't do it.

Girl: I can't.
(Cfying)

Woman: Saffron, you have
rehearsed this for weeks.

Everyone is waiting on you.
Do not let them down.

I am your mother, Saffie.
Listen to me--

No!
(Crying)

--Ten pounds, I know.

Do you think that
this lasts forever?

We are ready.

We're ready.

Let's go.

Come on, Saffie.

Smile.

Not ready, Mom.
(flying)

Mother: Big smile.

Ten minutes.

Igofia
hit the road, babe.

I got a big commercial appraisal
out of town.

You're gonna miss me
when I land my own cooking show.

Can't wait to see
my favourite chef on TV.

I'll see you later.

Good morning,
my fine feathered friend.

Who's a good boy?

I'll see ya later.

(bird noises)

(knocking)

Hi. It's your neighbour.
I have your mail.

S. Nelson, 302.
That's you, right?

Yep. Thank you.

Did you just move in?
We've never met.

No, I'm just not
always here.

- Oh.
- Thanks.

My pleasure.
I'm Amy.

Saffron.

(whispers)
Saffron.

0h, my God!
Oh, my God!

Where is it?

Man: Missed you
so much.

I missed you too.

My Saffie.

(phone rings)

Hi, Mom.

Mother: You remember
my friend Lou Rosen?

Well, he is now
the sole distributor

for this new ayurvedic
antioxidant.

You know,
he's a celebrity.

He does TV ads
and everything,

and they use this
ancient Chinese herb and it just

melts away the pounds.

You know, it's probably pure speed.
Why don't you just eat real food?

He says it's
completely organic,

very healthy,
and I'm gonna send you some.

Beause you need to hang on
to that slim little

figure of yours
while you still can.

Really?

I lost Herb when I started
putting on weight

and don't want you
going through the same thing.

You lost Herb because
he was a philandering jerk,

you didn't know when
to give into him.

Thank God
he had money.

Don't listen to me
if you don't want to.

But don't come complaining to me
that no one tried to tell you so

when you watch Fred
walk out that door.

Thanks, Mom,
for the advice.

You're welcome.

Fred's not going anywhere.
He's happy as a cherrystone clam.

All the showroom glass
is an asset.

(phone ringing)

Yeah, the dead end street
could hurt the value.

You've reached Fred Grant.
Leave a message.

I was hopin'
to take you to Earl's.

It's the home of
the mother of all burgers.

Oh, my God. Saffron?
Saffron Nelson?

Yes?

Could you please
sign this for me?

I love your movies,
but your sex column is so hot.

Okay, Jennifer,
you'll be next-- Saffron!

Thanks so much
for coming down.

Listen, um, I don't
mean to embarrass you.

I told your agent
this was a real long shot,

but he hasn't been
able to reach you.

I've been away.

Well, I'm sorry, but we're
looking for someone more, um--

Well, someone unknown.

Younger.

Younger might help,
but really a new face.

There isn't any money
for the role.

I already discussed this
with Eric.

I don't care.
I love it.

I--I will even read
if there's no offer on the table.

I will do
whatever it takes.

Okay.

Someone younger, then.
Someone fresher.

Fresher.

Okay.

Sorry.

So great to see you.

Jennifer, you can
come on in now.

(chuckling)

So the owner walks in
and finds all this imported furniture,

and an entire family
had moved into his office.

(laughing)

(phone ringing)

Oh, boy.

Yes, dear?

Honey, I wish
you'd return my calls.

I've got devil/ed blue point
crab cakes in the oven

and they just
came in fresh.

You will go insane.

Honey, thought I told you
I was on the road today?

And pick up
two bottles of Chablis

on the way home.
It's not too fruity.

And try to make it by nine.
Love you.

You too.

Oh, you, uh,
have a little, right...

There.

Thanks.

Welcome.

Do you fully
taste the crab?

Fully.

'Cause most of the time
in the restaurant, you only get

the canned crab
and the cornmeal.

Here you go, bud.

You know, he's gotta get used
to eating in his cage or

we'll never have a minute
to ourself.

He likes watching you cook.
Don't ya, Bas?

That's my boy.

Sometimes I get
the feeling my food

doesn't interest you
that much.

You know what?
Everything isn't always about food.

Who's a good boy?

Do you realize I spent all day
making that for you?

Well, don't. Don't do it.
You don't have to.

You could do
something simple for once.

Like what,
a TV dinner?

Yeah. I've had 'em.

Nobody's ever died from one
as far as I know.

It's never gonna happen
around here.

What kind of woman
serves her family a TV dinner?

Well, maybe one
that's got a life.

(mocking)
"How does it taste? Is it good?

"Is it too salty,
too spicy?"

God, I'm sick of hearing
the same thing every single night.

Is there nothing else
worth thinking about?

I can't believe how much
you've changed.

We've had the same conversation
for the past year.

Find something to do
with your life.

I am.

Imagine me in front of
a live studio audience.

Not this again.

A million viewers.

All waiting with
bated breath

for me to deliver
the next greatest dish.

You don't get it,
Freddo, do you?

This is my life.

Mmm.

You barely ate earlier.

There must be some room
for dessert in there.

No room, all full?

Come on. Open up.

You know, the secret
to making a good profiterole

is you have to freeze
the pastry first.

Uh, baby...

Start off with it
nice and firm.

I've been
drivin' all day.

That's why
you need sugar.

Coco lifts the spirit.
It'll lift just about anything.

I could have
made you anything,

like a cherry tart,
but there's nothing like

creamy chocolate
and vanilla together.

Hot and cold.

Fire and ice.

Tell me
how you want me.

No. Enough is enough.

No more
fucking food.

Jesus Christ.

I'm goin' to bed.

You don't have to be so blunt.
I'm a perceptive girl.

Man: Chris, come on! Put it when it's up!
I need that risotto yesterday.

Man 2:
Plate's up on fourteen.

MED.' Amy?

Amy: Hi, Lucas.

Hey-- I tried to tell you.
Jefe likes it the way he likes it.

Don't worry,
I don't want my job back.

I'm getting
my own cooking show.

What did he order?

The moules frites.

You know he still brings
his coworkers here.

Well, I didn't realize
he fed them too.

The asshole never liked them
when I made them.

I try so hard
to make him happy.

Seems like I can
never do enough.

Man: Order's ready
for seven, Lucas!

Sometimes with all these
clever gastronomic combinations,

and catering to
people's desire,

somebody's just
bound to get hurt.

But now we do
what we do best in this show--

communicate
those touchy feelings

which can only truly be expressed
through cooking.

(angry chopping
as audience cheers)

All that pampering and posturing
and pandering

just to get
a response.

A tiny spark
of appreciation.

And the minute a hot piece of ass
comes your way,

you're all over it
like white on rice.

Moules frites.

Probably the only muscle
she ever had

was in the back seat
of a car on her knees.

Audience:
Whore!

Stick to your
greasy burgers, girlfriend.

But does all this mean

that we have to lower
the gastronomic bar?

Audience:
No!

Damn straight.

Because food
is an art, people,

and true artists fight back
through all the pain and indifference.

They never give up.

Audience:
Go, girl!

I thought our one-year engagement
was special enough

to break out
my best silverware.

I wanted everything
to be perfect.

I think it looks amazing,

like one of those kitchens
you see in a magazine.

Not with the kitchen.
I mean with the meal.

How could you go wrong?
You made my favourite. It's delicious.

Actually, they ran out of
the organic partridge, which is unusual,

because the delivery from Beaver Creek
Farms is on Tuesday night.

So I thought, well, you know Fred.
What can we do?

He won't want meat because
he probably snuck in a burger at lunch.

Maybe mussels, fries.
we always enjoyed that together.

You know, we've been having these
catered lunches at work, and, uh--

So I checked in my cooking journal,
and I realized

that on three out of the five occasions
I've made your favourite stuffed game

that you haven't been able
to really enjoy it.

I wasn't?

No, because it has to be savoured
fresh out of the oven

to fully appreciate
the aroma

and the fragrance
in all of its intensity.

We went over this.

Do you remember?

Look, Amy, if this is about
me being insensitive, I apologize.

Things at work have been...
let's say challenging.

Well, challenging is
when something you want

makes you work harder
to get it.

Is that what you mean?

Where are you going
with this?

Well, I thought, you know,
don't get all uptight

and throw around
the four-letter words.

Just let the wine decide
what's gonna pair with this...

little love-bird.

Where's Sebastian?

Bas-man?

Bastian?

Where is he?

(knocking)

(knocking)

Saffron?

It's Amy.

Hi.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Um, I was just--I was
going to the market

and I was going to make dinner
and I was thinking,

maybe we could
have dinner sometime?

Oh, tonight's
not a good night.

I'm really behind
on a deadline.

Oh, I wasn't thinking
about tonight.

I'm so busy too, um...
What about next week?

Not a good week for me.

(clears throat)

Well, I'll just
check back in with you.

I--I appreciate
the dessert.

Oh!

Did you like
the profiteroles?

Oh, yeah, they were wonderful.
Thank you.

Did you like the way the hot
and the cold mixed together and--

Thank you.
Appreciate it.

Mmm.

Mmm, don't you just love
the smell of fresh baking?

I'm sorry
to keep asking, Amy,

but something is bothering me
about your neighbour.

You said
she was a recluse.

Now, where does a recluse
come up with

all that advice
aboutsex?

Well, maybe she had a lover.
All you need is one.

Did you, um,
ever see any of her movies?

Not that I recall. I don't really follow
who's who, except in the kitchens.

Go ahead. Try it.

You know, I'm really just
a meat-and-potatoes kind of guy.

Oh, a bite
won't kill you.

I'd love to,
but I have this, uh,

bad flap, that if I eat
something like this, I get...

(clicking)

I--I even take
a pill for it.

(sighs)

l-lnfi-

Mmm.

You know,

they sell you the vanilla extract
and it's not pure.

That is unfair.

What about you?
Anyone in your life?

No. No one.

Well, someone is
definitely missing out.

I got rid of
the last one.

I'm free as a bird.

(chOP)

Sometimes
you get so far gone

that you can't see
what's good for you anymore.

And when a new opportunity
presents itself,

you have to go for it.

Audience:
(cheers)

Mmm-- now, fish en croute
with lemon butter sauce

isn't as intimidating
as it sounds.

A dish like this
speaks volumes.

It says, 'I've made this for you
with affection'.

(knocking)

May I suggest fish en croute
with lemon butter sauce?

I just renovated my kitchen,
so it's kind of a celebration.

Thank you for thinking of me,
but I've already eaten dinner.

Well, then, keep it
and eat it later.

No, no, I really--
I--I--I couldn't.

I know you think
I'm pushy, but

you can't afford to be shy
when it comes to food.

Do you live
by yourself?

Yep.

You know, I wasn't sure at first
that it was you.

But then there was
something, I don't know.

Made me think
about being a kid.

Yeah... Kids shows
were fun back then.

Too bad the asshole producers
took all the fun away.

I used to watch your show
every night after dinner.

It was like you were
a part of the family.

That's wonderful,
Amy, but I--

I have work I--I need
to get back to.

Oh! Um, en croute
means in a crust.

It's a flounder
in a puff pastry.

Actually, I know
what 'en croute' means.

Oh, of course.
You're so sophisticated.

I hope you approve.
I made it specially for you.

You're so skinny.
I need to lose some weight.

I should be, like,
ten pounds lighter for my height.

And you're still
so pretty, Saffron.

L--I'm flattered. But, sadly,
I've already eaten.

It would really
make my day

if you would just try it right now
while the lemon cream

is still hot and tangy enough
to really do its job.

Come on. I dropped a bomb
on the stove.

Need to know
if it's worth the money.

Of course, it was
the idiot's money, but...

Mmm.

It's delicious.

- Really?
- M m-hm.

You really think so?

Mmm. I really--I need
to get back to my work.

I'm so happy we're neighbours.
You have no idea.

Let me know
how the cream works.

Don't let it sit too long
'cause it'll lose all of its flavour.

Bye.

Audience:
(cheers) Amy!

Welcome back
to Food For Love,

where we transform dinner
into a romantic love affair.

Now, with rack of lamb
with truffled ragout,

you're gonna want to have
your butcher french the bones.

Unless you're handy
with a meat cleaver,

which I personally
am not.

I've always been partial to
the black truffle oil of France.

Now, truffles
are libido enhancers

because they're rich in...

Audience:
Amino acids!

Audience:
(Clapping)

This dish is really
all about meat.

Fred used to say,
"I didn't fight my way

"to the top of the food chain
to be a vegetarian."

Who says those vegetarians
don't let their

inner animal out
in the bedroom?

Audience:
(cheering)

(knocking)

It's 301. I have
a surprise for you.

Oh, my God.

I hope I'm not
bothering you.

Actually, I'm in
the middle of writing.

How do you
cook in here?

(clears throat)

You were amazing
in that.

You fought it out with a broken leg
for half the movie.

And I actually broke my leg
making the movie.

Wow. I hope
they paid you a lot.

You'd have to
ask my mother.

She took care
of all that.

Is... that for me?

It's rack of lamb
with truffled ragout.

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.

Assholes.

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)

(echo) Saffron, you just...

(_eCho)
Just“,

(echo) you try to
sneak one of these in?

(echo). . . 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?

(echo)
angel-face, angel-face...

Amy's mother:
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?

Audience:
An oyster!

Very good.

A real student of both the kitchen
and the bedroom.

Oysters and sex
have something in common.

They're both...
that good

that you close an eye
to the mess that they make.

(gasp)

(knocking)

It's open.

I know you're busy.
I'm just checking in.

I know what it
must be like

with the reading,
the auditions, the pressure.

The hardest thing is not
having someone to talk to.

To really talk to.

Did he leave you?

I left him.

How can someone
be so needy

and yet so unresponsive
to someone else's needs?

It's not hard,
trust me.

It's so hard
being alone.

You're one of
the lucky ones. You--

chose what you wanted to do
and it worked out.

Oh, yeah, they're just knocking
my door down trying to hire me.

Haven't you
seen 'em all?

Will you let me know
how the bouillabaisse is?

I know you
love oysters.

I made this for you

inspired by your scene
from 'Twilight Pearl'.

You were
unforgettable.

I didn't actually
eat an oyster.

You didn't?

No.

Please just try it.

Mmm-hm-hm.

I'll just
leave it here.

(gagging, spitting)

Don't make me go back
to my cookbook, Saffie.

(knocking)

Gonna get cold.

(knocking)

You don't know
what you're missing.

(knocking)

I 'll just
leave it here.

(knocking)

Come on!
I know you're in there.

(elevator dings)

I'm sorry.

For what?

Let me see that.

This is
the appreciation I get?

I'm very, very sorry.

I just...
I couldn't eat it all.

- We'll see about that!
- Ah, no!

Get in there!

Ahh!

Sit down.

(Crash)

(crying)

Please, please...

Please! Please what?

I made this for you!
Now, EAT!

I can't.

Yes, you can.

You're not gonna
reject me too.

Who are you
to despise my food?

My entire body
rejects it.

You fucking snob!
This is my creation. MINE!

Eat!

You will eat.

(screams)

ARGH!

I'll show you
rejection.

You wanna be
close to me?

Well, now you're close.

Ringside seat.

Normally I'd run the water
so no one would hear, but,

we don't have
to worry.

It's just you
and me.

And we're friends
now, right?

Then I do it.

In and out,
back and forth.

It's as natural
as sex.

(gagging, vomiting)

I used to wrap
my knuckles.

(laughs)

Then I would choke
on the fucking toilet paper.

Once I even used
a plastic spoon

when I was so afraid
it would go down. Mm-hm.

(vomiting)

Am I beautiful now?

It's not your food, Amy.
It's not the taste.

What is it?

It's a vice that's stuck around,
and it's not welcome.

You have to eat something,
Saffie, or... you'll die.

How do you feed something
that can't be fed?

I just want it
to disappear.

You're really beautiful.

I wanted to get out so bad.

Then when I was
really ready to bail,

I saw what I was
up against.

They all needed me.

They all fed off me.

Even my own father.

I supported him
for, like, twenty years.

If it wasn't for me,
he'd probably be in prison.

I'm sorry.

I thought my father
was a deadbeat.

Saffie, what can I do?

Be someone who doesn't
want anything from me.

Can you do that?

I really need
to be alone, please.

Please give me
another chance.

To cook for you.

To make you
feel whole.

You-you can't
see it, can you?

See what?

The line.

When to quit.

Just let me make you
something simple.

A soup.

(knocking)

It's open.

You look lovely.

I didn't think
you'd come.

You can run lines with me
for my audition.

I would love that.

Have a seat.

I made you
a ginger coriander broth.

Is it alright?

Mm-hm.

The ginger root
will relax your stomach.

Mmm.

Is--is it too spicy?

I was careful
with the ginger root.

No, no, it's, um--
Guess I have a lot on my mind.

Ahh! That was good.

You didn't eat
very much.

I--I baked you
a goat cheese and tomato tart.

No, just... Just sit.

Do you mind
if I--if I smoke?

Oh, of course. Uh...

I'm done too.

Oh--

Ashtray.

Let's, um...
Let's run these lines, yeah?

Oh--

Um-- Okay, you are...

You're Nicole, okay?

Okay.

And, um, don't feel like
you have to act.

Just--
Here, just read it.

Okay?

You said to go with
our instincts, right?

Get in touch with
our animal side.

If I were an animal,
which animal would I be?

I don't know.
Maybe a horse?

Come on, Dr Mann,
you know me better than that.

A boa constrictor.

Not bad
but too physical.

Too much effort spent
and not enough strategy.

A scorpion.

Too obvious.

Stings its mate, a no-brainer
for the arachnoid vice squad.

A net thrower.

What's that?

A spider that throws a net
on its prey,

stings it
and sucks it dry.

Glad to see this game
amuses you, Nicole.

Why don't you come up
to my ranch this weekend?

You'd love
the mountains.

No, I--I couldn't.
Doctor-patient...

Confidentiality, I know.

It's funny, I feel like
I've known you forever.

It happens.

But if it gets in the way of the work,
it can be dangerous.

That was terrible.

No, you were great.

Um, should we try it
one more time?

Yeah. Mm-hm.

You said go with our instincts, right?
Get in touch with our animal side.

A net thrower.

Can you believe this dialogue?
Okay, a boa constrictor.

I'm Saffron.

You're good.

(laughing)

Ready? I'm going to be
very demure instead.

- Demure?
- You ready for me?

Okay.
And action.

You said to go with
our instincts, right?

If I were an animal,
which animal would I be?

A horse.

A horsie.

Wow.

Who talks like this?

Who actually
talks like this?

It's a spider
that throws a net!

(laughing)

Why don't you come up
to my ranch this weekend?

You'd love
the mountains.

No, I can't.
Doctor-patient...

Confidentiality.
I know.

It's funny. I feel like
I've known you forever.

It happens. But if it gets
in the way of the work,

it can be very,
very dangerous.

Amazing. Whoa, I just
got distracted, it was so good.

Uhhhhh...
Let it be--

You know what?
I'm absolutely hideous.

- No!
- I am.

That was--oh,
that was great.

But I'm impressed with
everything you do.

(laughs)
Thank you.

I think you're gonna
get this job, Saffie. I can feel it.

No.

Not when they have every
head cheerleader Texas ever produced.

That's who they
really deserve.

Not according to your agent.
He says they want you.

Y-O-U, right?

I, um-- I need to rest.
But thank you. Um--

(clears throat)

I can run lines
with you tomorrow--

I can even go with you
if you want.

Okay. Okay.

Oh, wait!
Um, hah.

I was on YouTube,
and I have something for you.

I thought
you might enjoy this.

(whispers)
Okay.

Girl: I'm Saffron Nelson.

I'm nine years old
and I'm with EZ Talent.

Man: Okay, hon, you can do anything
you want. What are you gonna do for us?

I'm gonna do an old classic.
Is that alright?

Uh-huh.

♪ Now, don't you listen, honey,
while I say ♪

♪ How could you tell me
that you're going away? ♪

I Don't say that
we must part. ♪

Just be yourself.

(laughs)
Trust me.

The real me would never please
any of these people.

Good luck.

I knew we'd find something for you.
You're perfect for this.

Come on in!

Thank you.

(clears throat)

Okay.

Okay, any time
you're ready, Saffron.

Hello. My name
is Saffron Nelson.

I'm with
Talent Unlimited,

and I will be reading
for Dr Mann.

Hi, Saffron.

I'm sorry, um--
The light's very bright. I can't see.

The unforgettable
Saffron Nelson.

You're still
lookin' good, Saffie.

And I'm...
still lookin' out for you.

It's okay to be a little
nervous... (echoing)

(echo)
Be so breathtaking...

How does it feel
to be so breathtaking?

Don't worry.

Your mother trusts me.

That's why
she's given you to me.

Because it's what Bob
expects from you... (echoing)

You are gonna be a star, Saffron.
A star. I know it.

(echoing) Because
you're a movie star now...

Because you're
a movie star, that's why.

(struggling)

I said quality.

I'm gonna be looking
for someone eighteen.

Excuse me.

Woman: Saffron?

Are you okay?

Uh-uh.

- Saffie, what happened?
-(<=ryir19)

Saffie?

Saffron?

Saffie?

Everything I did
was for you, Saffie.

You can't tell me
it wasn't a good ride.

(burning sizzle)

(phone ringing)

Saffron?

Saffron?

(whispers)
Saffron!

Saffron! Are you okay?

Ooh, I fell asleep.

It was so sweet.

Do you put this much effort
into everyone?

Or am I special?

You're special.

But I just don't know
how to give you anything.

There's only one thing
you can do.

You're perfect for it.

Aren't you?

I'll love you forever.

And you'll have me
forever.

Mmm.

Lie down with me.

You okay?

I feel better now.

How does that feel?

Feels wonderful.

Kiss me.

(moaning)

So nice.

You so feel good.

- I want you to let go.
- Mm-hm.

Do you wanna
do that?

I do.

Wonderful.

(breathing heavily,
moaning)

That's it.

Ohh!

Yeah.

Ohh.

Yes.

You taste so good.

(moaning)

Can you feel me?

Oh!

I can feel you.

Right there. Ohh!

(moaning)

Mm.

Do you wanna
help me?

Mmm.

I want to.

More than anything.

I'd do anything
for you.

Do you love me?

I love you.

Help me
do something...

For you.

To remember me.

I've always
loved you, Saffie.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Reynolds: Would you say
she was depressed about her work?

Did you hear
what I said?

(sigh) Well, who isn't
these days?

Yeah, but what makes someone
check out just like that-- (snap)

If indeed
that's what she did.

She was definitely
temperamental.

Well, she was an actor.
What do you expect?

I have a surprise
for you.

You being
a meat-and-potatoes guy.

So don't even think about
insulting the chef

by letting my last portion
go to waste.

You won't soon
forget this.

It's the best dish
I've ever made.

Now, that is
real gourmet.

But, you know,
it's funny.

When I was doing
a background check,

I found that there was no mention
of your cooking show.

Well, you have to
hang on to your privacy.

I saw what that stuff
did to Saffron.

Nothing's private
these days, Amy.

The show
will be on soon.

The network likes to
keep it under wraps.

And how about this?

Do you, uh,
recognize that?

Well, I'm not
a bird expert.

Your ex-fiancé's
pet African Grey.

I saw the police report.

There's a very disturbing
allegation.

Now, did you think
we wouldn't interview him?

That bird just didn't
fly away, did it?

He's upset because
he put this place in my name.

But who could
invent that?

Invent what?

That you fed it to him.

That bird flew away,
like Saffron.

I don't see what this has to do
with my missing neighbour.

At this point, I don't know,
but I plan on finding out.

People just
don't disappear.

Well, I have
nothing to hide.

Get a search warrant.

(heavy pulsating sound)

(garburator grinding)

(heavy pulsating sound)

I'd offer you dessert,
but I know you have the...

I have other things
besides soufflé.

(heavy pulsating sound)

Amy: Cooking is supposed to
make you feel loved.

'Cause when
you've got love,

you've got
the whole universe.
