Tracy, how long on that pork
check for the VIP ticket?

45 seconds.

OK.

How long are the tomatoes, Lou?

Pulling them out now, Chef.

Perfect.

Chef, that looks gorgeous.

Should we plate the rest?

Sheridan Reeve's last review
of Chez Garrett, it was good,

but it wasn't great.

He needs to know the Garrett's
new restaurant isn't the same.

Got to give him a
different experience.

I love when you get
that look in your eyes.

Copy that, Chef.

Do you want us to plate
it a different way?

I don't want to plate it at all.

It's a risk, but
hopefully it pays off.

Em, you are my idol.

Serving the meal family
style is brilliant.

Yeah.

Bravo, Chef.

What's this I hear
about family style?

Chef, hi.

Yes, I did decide
to serve a meal--

Family style, in one
of my restaurants?

Yes.

I just thought that this food is
meant to bring people together.

Yeah.

I should have been here.

I'm sorry.

I called you the
second he showed up.

That's not your fault, Emma.

That's what critics do.

They just show up, OK?

But let's just
hope you're right.

He's about to take a bite.

He loves it.

And Garrett, at
some point, Sheridan

asked that you
come to the table.

OK.

Great job, everyone,
especially you, Emma.

Em, why don't you bring out the
dessert so I can introduce you?

Great.

Can you tell I'm still
wearing makeup from the shoot?

Oh, no, no.

You look good.

Great work, everyone.

So good.

Can you start browning
the cobbler for me?

Yes, Chef.

Great.

Aunt June, hey!

Emma?

Where are you?

Oh, I'm in the refrigerator.

You are not going to believe
it, but Sheridan Reeves is here,

and he loves my food.

Well, of course he does.

And Garrett says he's going
to introduce me tonight.

About time that man
appreciates you.

Soon, we will be celebrating
you having your own restaurant.

That is the dream.

Just know, honey, that your
home away from home here on Oahu

is always waiting for you.

Thank you, Aunt June.

And I promise, as soon
as my work allows,

I am going to be on a plane,
and I'm going to come see you.

All right, I got to go.

Love you.

Love you.

Sheridan, such an
honor to have you here.

I heard rumors that your food
here was vastly more elevated

than Chez Garrett, but
I got to be honest,

I assumed you'd
brought someone in.

Really?

Why would you assume that?

You know I like your food, but
tonight had so much more heart.

And the decision to serve
it family style was genius.

I wouldn't quite
call it genius, but--

And that potato dish
was exceptional.

You know, it reminds me of my
grandma's brabant potatoes,

but more elevated.

What was that incredible
sauce you created for it?

Well, that was
the, uh-- the, um--

Smoked paprika cashew aioli.

Oh, and this is--

Hi.

The peach cobbler.

Oh.

Smells delicious.

Thank you, Emma.

I did a little mint on
the top to bring out

the flavor of the actual, um--

I have a Left Bank Cab Bordeaux
for you, your favorite.

What happened tonight?

Look, Em, I really wanted
to introduce you, I swear.

It just wasn't the right moment.

Yeah, but if tonight
wasn't the right moment,

then when, Garrett?

You did great in there
tonight, but I just

can't have Sheridan Reeves
knowing everything--

What, knowing that those
are my recipes, or that--

that I'm your girlfriend?

You know I want to, right?

I just-- the Gourmet
Network is more interested

in me being a bachelor
on my Instagram

than it is in my cooking.

Garrett, you're so
incredibly talented.

Being honest about
having a girlfriend

is not going to ruin that.

You're right.

You're right.

I know.

I know.

And I'm going to shout
it from the rooftops

just as soon as I get
the show renewed, OK?

Just a few more weeks, please.

I don't need rooftops.

I need--

Listen, I'll give you the
credit you deserve, OK?

I promise.

All right?

Hello?

Anyone still here?

Sorry to interrupt.

I think I may have
forgot my phone.

Nothing to interrupt here.

We're just having a quick
chef-mentee debrief, actually.

Oh.

Found it.

Hey, you know, I
was thinking, what

if I expand my article into a
cover story for Food and Wine?

And I love the mentorship angle.

Ella, was it?

Emma.

Oh, of course.

I'm sure after seeing Chef
Garrett prepare the food

tonight, you've
learned quite a bit.

Oh, yes.

I have learned
quite a bit tonight.

Garrett, I'll be in touch.

Have a great night.

What?

I couldn't contradict
what I just told him.

But you can contradict
what you just told me.

You are a very, very
talented chef, Emma.

But this is business, all right?

We've all paid our dues.

The sooner you learn
that, the better.

OK.

That's-- that's
the thing, Garrett.

It's actually not
just business for me.

This is over, professionally
and personally.

Emma, what are
you talking about?

You're just overreacting again.

Yeah, of course
you would say that.

Of course you would say.

You can't just walk away.

I gave you your shot, OK?

Before you met me, you
were cooking on the line

for what, 10 years, huh?

Without my recommendation, you
are just another line cook.

You need me.

No, Garrett.

I need me.

You OK?

I made us some
hibiscus iced tea.

Did I just pack a bag
and fly to Hawaii?

You did indeed.

I believe it's the most
spontaneous thing you've ever

done.

Maybe I overreacted.

Maybe you didn't.

Garrett was just trying to
do what he thought was best.

What if he was right?

First of all, coming
to this island

is never an overreaction.

And it sounds to me like Garrett
did what's best for Garrett.

You remember, it
was your food that

blew away one of the most
prominent food critics

in the country.

You're right.

I know you're right.

Cheers to that.

Wow.

This is delicious.

I'm not without skills.

Emma, honey, you
can't build a house

unless you have a
good foundation.

Sorry to say, it
sounded like yours

had more than a few cracks.

I think I knew that in my gut.

But I loved him, you know?

And he's right.

I was just a line cook
before he gave me a shot.

What if I do need him?

If Garrett can't acknowledge
who you are, in and out

of the kitchen, I
can guarantee you

you're better off without him.

I don't know.

I just need a break from it all.

I need to rethink what I want.

No need to figure
it all out now.

Take a breath.

Enjoy Waikiki bliss.

You're not taking a break
from eating, too, are you?

Let's not get crazy, now.

There's my girl.

Come on.

Let's get you unpacked.

Settling in OK?

Oh, yeah.

Everything's great.

It's beautiful.

Was this Uncle Kai's?

Sure was.

Do you remember when he tried
to teach me how to surf?

Do I ever.

You were so terrified.

You wouldn't get in
past your ankles.

I know it must be so hard
to be here without him.

I miss him so much, too.

You two had such a special bond.

I did always promise him
that I'd give it a second go.

You know, it's not too late.

You remember him saying when
you're out in the ocean,

your problems just melt away?

He wasn't wrong.

So how about some supper?

Sounds good.

I'll just jump in the shower.

OK.

Hey, good to see you.

Look at you two.

All right.

Have a good night.

What are you talking about?

That can't be possible.

Sir, like I said, we
don't do lessons anymore.

But you can buy or rent.

But you're the only surf shop
at this end of the beach.

It's just bad business.

I'm sorry, man.

I don't know what to tell you.

Hermano, with those
customer service skills,

should have had you
train the waitstaff.

Shouldn't you be over there,
roasting a pig or something?

You wish.

Mira, I brought you
a little bit of food

because I know how
you forget to eat.

This smells just like Mom's.

Except her serving of
mofongo would have been,

like, three times this size.

And if you left one
little bite, [spanish]...

Did you sleep in here
again last night?

Yeah.

Inventory went late.

Wait till you taste
Franky's salsa flight.

Of course, you have to pair
it with a Serrano Margarita.

Oh, of course you do.

If it tastes good as
it smells, I'm in.

So I'm going to go
check on the table.

Why don't you take a peek?

I'll come back and get you
when the table's ready.

OK.

OK, you know I
don't have a filter,

so I'm just going to say it.

I'm worried about you.

Don't be.

You'd be surprised how
comfy this thing is.

I'm not just talking about that.

You used to love to
give surf lessons.

Oh, so you're worried
because I no longer

want to spend my
time giving lessons

to overeager tourists who are
trying to find themselves?

Ben, Estrella is--

Let's just not go there.

We have a customer.

Excuse me.

OK, but if she was still
running the shop with you,

don't you think that she would
want you to confront your--

There's nothing to confront.

I'm perfectly capable
of giving lessons.

I just choose not to.

Hey.

Need any help over there?

Uh, hi.

Yes.

Do you have surf
booties in a size 6?

I do, but I wouldn't
recommend those for beginners.

How do you know I'm a beginner?

You're buying booties
when there is no rocks

and it's 90 degrees out.

Maybe I have very
sensitive feet.

And that leash you're holding
is for a stand-up paddleboard.

Perhaps I enjoy both sports.

Yeah, perhaps.

Yeah.

Or maybe I don't want
you to spend money

on things you don't need.

And how do you know what I need?

Let me guess.

You came to Hawaii to
find yourself, right?

No.

Come on.

I came for surf lessons.

Do you offer surf lessons?

He's the best surfer and surf
instructor on the island.

Oh, look who it is.

Hey.

Oh, two times in one week.

Good to see you.

Oh, my goodness.

You're so beautiful.

You are gorgeous.

What is this dress
you're wearing?

Thank you.

Gentlemen, this is my
niece Emma, all the way

from Atlanta, Georgia.

Hi, there.

Hi.

Seems like fate.

So do you think you
have time for me, or?

I need to check.

I checked his schedule.

Believe it or not, he has an
opening tomorrow, 6:00 AM.

Great.

Then that's settled.

It's a date.

No, it's not a date.

Finally, an updated version of
my mother's Asopao de Pollo

Oh, it smells incredible.

Please eat.

Buen provecho !

Mm.

The depth of flavor is just--

it's so layered.

It's like I can taste
every herb and spice.

It just melts together into this
palate-pleasing combination.

Is that culantro?

I'm impressed.

Most gringas, they can't
tell the subtle but important

difference between
culantro and cilantro.

So how many carrots do
I have to chop for you

to give this recipe to me?

It's the island
secret ingredient.

Puerto Rican dishes, they're
very complementary and similar

to Polynesian flavors.

The one just seems
to elevate the other.

Franky, you have to try
her Southern fried chicken.

It's heaven on Earth.

Sign me up, sister.

I miss me some good
Southern cooking so much.

Fun fact, he actually went to
culinary school in Louisiana.

Oh, I knew I liked you.

Well, if you like
this, you're going

to love what I have for the
annual Big Wave cook-off.

I watch that every year.

You know, two of
my idols I heard

are judging this year,
the fabulous Lee Anne

Wong and Katie Lee.

Katie Lee.

Oh, my God, I just can't, right?

I love her.

Wait, are you competing?

Is the Pope Catholic?

Oh, wait.

Did you come to the
island to compete, too?

Oh, actually, she's
taking a break

from the kitchen at this moment.

Oh, really?

That's so sad.

I wanted to have a chance
to taste your cooking.

Oh.

I mean, I guess
cooking with a friend

isn't the same thing as
cooking in a formal kitchen.

It's true.

And after this incredible meal,
I mean, how could I say no?

What about tomorrow, my place?

I'll whip up my famous
passion fruit mojitos,

and you all can
mess up my kitchen.

And maybe you're going to share
with me your fried chicken

recipe?

Only if you'll give me the
recipe for your asopao.

That one might sting a bit,
but OK, you have a deal.

OK.

Seriously, this is so good.

I know.

He knows.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

Why?

Why did you do this?

Well, I'm here.

Yeah.

Did this really have
to be at 6:00 AM?

Surfer's hours, Gidget.

What?

I'm on time.

You cold?

No.

You do know we're
in Hawaii, right?

Oh, yeah.

Look, this is a-- this
is a surfing wetsuit.

Yeah, if you were surfing
in the Atlantic or Iceland.

Very funny.

Well, at least you
won't get a rash.

Rash?

No, no, no, no.

No one said anything
about a rash.

What kind of rash?

You know what?

Don't answer that.

Do you have any
surfing experience?

Well, I've seen Blue
Crush, like, four times,

and I love Keanu Reeves.

OK, so let's start
from the beginning.

OK.

Just before we start, I just--

I just have to say, I'm kind
of sort of extremely terrified

of the ocean.

But that's not going
to be a problem, right?

You know how to swim, right?

It's not that I don't
know how to swim.

I mean, pools have
never been an issue.

Oh there-- there are no sharks
on the end of the beach.

It's not that.

It's-- it's the waves.

Oh, the waves.

There are no waves in surfing.

Just FYI, I respond better
to positive reinforcement.

Noted.

The second most important
thing is to stay relaxed

and to not panic.

That's when you get in trouble.

OK.

All right.

Well, I guess now is
as good a time as any.

Shall we?

Whoa, whoa.

Not so fast, sufer girl.

We're going to start right here.

Surfing it's not
just about the ocean.

It's a way of life.

It's a mindset.

So we're to start
with breathing.

You do know how
to breathe, right?

Yeah, I'm pretty good at that.

OK.

So let's start.

OK.

Now, raise your arms.

OK.

Breathe in through the
nose, out through the mouth.

Every surfer has
their own ritual

before getting in the water.

OK.

Now we're going to
try a few pop ups.

Uh, in the ocean?

No, still not yet.

All right.

I feel like I've got
this surfing thing down.

Start paddling.

And hold it, the board,
on this position.

And when I say pop up.

All right.

Well, your turn.

All right.

Like this?

Start paddling.

OK, now pop up.

Uh, sorry.

What do I do from this
downward dog position?

Just drag your
foot up under you.

Yeah.

Oh!

You OK?

I'm OK.

Well, not bad for
your first attempt.

I fell.

Oh.

Oh, you're going to fall.

Huh?

So this is your leash.

This is what will keep you
from losing your board.

OK.

You know what?

Why don't you just do
a show and tell today.

I'm actually a really
good visual learner.

Hey, remember, you have to
let go of the fear and relax.

And besides, I
don't surf anymore.

I might be an amateur, but
there are two surfboards here.

For me today, it's just a
raft to go out with you.

Now, stop stalling
and start paddling.

It's surprisingly
peaceful out here.

Yeah.

It's a great time to learn.

There's a groundswell building.

Groundswell?

What's that?

It sounds kind of scary.

Nah, it's just the opposite.

Way out there, there's
a storm, and it's

sending you the most
beautiful waves to learn on.

Well, that's perfect timing.

Speaking of which, when
I tell you to paddle,

you're going to
look straight ahead

and paddle as hard as you can.

OK?

And when I say pop
up, you're going

to do just what you
did on the sand.

I'm going to fall.

You will fall.

Like I said, just make sure
you cover your head on your way

up so that board
doesn't hit you, OK?

I don't know about this.

Now, most importantly,
stay relaxed.

Have fun.

Don't fight it.

Trust me.

I'll be right here to get you.

OK, now get down on your board.

Here comes a wave.

OK, start paddling.

Keep paddling, Emma!

OK, now pop up!

You OK?

Yeah, I'm OK.

Good because wipeouts are
a big part of surfing.

OK?

Here comes another one.

Ready?

No, no.

I'm Good for today.

OK, surfer girl.

You did great.

No, I didn't.

Well, an hour ago, you were
terrified of the ocean.

And you wiped out like a pro.

So you should be
proud of yourself.

It's just the waves.

They seem so much
bigger out here

than they do from the shore.

You can't get in your
own head about it.

When I tell you
to start paddling,

you have to look forward.

Trust that I have your back.

OK.

I will.

Same time tomorrow?

Um, yeah.

So how was this morning?

Mm, it was a little like Blue
Crush 2 meet a washing machine.

But a lot of fun.

And how was my brother?

You mean other than that
sparkling personality?

He totally Miyagied me.

So how did you meet my aunt?

Your Uncle Kai gave me a
job at the rum distillery

when we first moved here.

Ah.

That's amazing.

Parsley, do I use
the whole bunch?

Sí.

Todo.

My aunt and uncle were just
the most amazing couple,

weren't they?

They were my hashtag
couple goals.

Right?

Who could live up to that?

I used to think the
same thing, chica.

And then on a flight back
from New Orleans to Hawaii,

I met Sebastian.

A flight attendant?

Pilot.

Oh, fancy.

He showed me that true
love is still alive

and that we all deserve it.

I can't wait to meet him.

All right.

Do you think I need to thin
out the sauce a little bit?

Oh, no.

It looks perfect.

OK, what's the scoop?

What's the story?

Tell me.

Spill.

Spill.

There's nothing to spill.

Other than I quit my job, I
broke up with my boyfriend,

and I ran away to Hawaii.

Oh, is that all?

Emma, you're gorgeous, kind.

Obviously an amazing chef.

I hope you know that.

Oh, Franky, you're so sweet.

I don't know.

I thought I had everything
I wanted lined up.

But then it wasn't what it
seemed or who he seemed.

Anyway.

Ooh, that chicken.

That chicken's
ready to come out.

Oh.

OK.

Let me get the
special sauce with it.

Get it ready for you.

Here we go.

OK.

Mm.

Delicioso.

Mm.

Yep.

That is so good.

Absolutely perfect.

So good.

Mommy would be so proud.

Everything OK?

No.

Maria, my partner
for the competition,

she slipped in the fish
market and broke her arm.

She has to drop out.

Oh, no!

That's horrible.

I'm so sorry, Franky.

Is she OK?

She says she's OK.

I'm going to bring her over
some food later to check,

but she can't cook with
one arm, and there's

no way that I'm going
to find a partner

before the competition starts.

Seems to me like
you already have.

We do make a great
team, and you're already

cooking with a friend.

That's all it would
be, technically.

So what do you say?

I say we win.

Ugh, why so early?

I love surfing.

I love surfing.

I love surfing.

I love surfing.

A one,
two, three, four.

Surf.

Surf.

Surf is the only way I say to
make music with the ocean day

by day.

I surf all day, play
music all night,

and I just can't wait till
the morning light to go surf.

You know, at least I
didn't jump off this time.

I just old school fell off.

That's progress, right?

That's huge.

Now we've got to
get you to stand up.

But that's impossible
without trust.

I trust.

Yeah?

Then why do you keep
looking back when I tell you

that you have to look forward?

What if you miss something?

You've got to have faith, Emma.

You can't control the ocean.

You're not in charge
over there, and that's--

that's a good thing.

You have to turn yourself over
to the wave and just ride it.

Go with the current,
you succeed.

Fight the current--

Wipe out?

Drown?

I'm not going to let anything
happen to you out there.

I've got you.

I should probably-- I should go.

Franky and I, we got to start
practicing for the competition.

We only have a few days left.

Thanks for doing this with him.

Oh, I just don't
want to disappoint.

Franky says you're
an amazing chef.

I'm sure you'll do great.

You have to tell me
everything about it, OK?

So you've been talking
to your brother about me?

Well, you know, I mean,
for insurance purposes.

Very funny.

Are you not coming?

Somebody has got to watch
over the staff at the cantina.

Ben, where's your faith?

Aloha, everyone.

I am your host, Anuhea.

You might know me as
one of Hawaii's hottest

local recording artists
and self-proclaimed foodie.

I'd like to welcome you all
to the 10th annual Big Wave

cook-off.

Today, we have six incredibly
talented culinary duos.

Only four teams will move
on to the next round.

Those four teams will
then fight it out

for one of two
spots in our finale,

where we will name this
year's winners, who

will receive $50,000.

You didn't say anything
to me about prize money.

Didn't I?

Are you ready to meet
your celebrity judges?

Woo!

She's a chef, cookbook writer,
television personality,

and now a best-selling author.

Give it up for Katie Lee.

Thank you, everyone.

I'm so thrilled to be here.

Our next judge left the
bright lights of New York City

to follow her heart
all the way to Hawaii.

She is a TV personality, top
chef, and cookbook writer.

Give it up for Lee Anne Wong.

Hello, Hawaii.

I am ready for something
sweet and spicy.

And finally, I'd like to
introduce our celebrity mentor.

We couldn't believe it when
he signed on last minute.

This chef will not be a
part of the judges panel

but will instead watch
on as our team's cook,

offering them priceless advice
throughout the competition.

He is the culinary
world's favorite bachelor.

Give it up for Garrett Weston.

Oh, no, no, no, no.

How is this happening?

Wait, the ex-boyfriend
is Garrett Weston?

You're not just cute.

You're also smart.

Oh, no.

Hey, Em.

Hey.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

It's fate.

Can you believe it?

No, I really, really can't.

This was not on your schedule.

Look, when you said you're
coming to visit your aunt,

I knew I had to come find you.

Ever since you left,
I've not been the same.

Mucho gusto, Franky.

So nice to meet you.

Garrett.

Good to meet you, too.

Pleasure.

Yeah.

We should be prepping.

I really miss you, Em.

Well, I'm sure you can
find a new chef de cuisine.

That's not what
I'm talking about.

Ben, what are you doing here?

Who's watching my restaurant?

Oh, yeah?

Nice to see you, too, man.

Can't I come to support
my little brother?

And Emma, of course.

How do you know Emma?

Oh, I'm her surf instructor.

Ben.

You surf now?

Yeah.

Chefs, it's time for
your first challenge.

That's my cue.

See you soon.

Good luck, she's
the best, you know.

Oh, I know.

Hey, break an egg.

Today, you'll be using
an ingredient from one

of our sponsors, Ko Hana Rum.

With us today is the
owner of Ko Hana rum.

Stand up, June Ko Hana.

Each team will be making
a dessert using rum

from Ko Hana's distillery.

It can be any dessert
you want, but the rum

needs to be the
star of the dish.

You have one hour, and
your time starts now.

All right, what are we thinking?

OK, the first thing
that comes to my mind

is a Puerto Rican rum cake.

But it's not going
to be original enough

to impress the judges.

We need to incorporate
some island flair.

Right.

OK.

So maybe we elevate it by making
a miniature version of it,

almost like a petit four.

Ooh, rum poppers.

I love it.

With a rum glaze on top?

Oh, that's so good.

And you know what?

We can cut back on the sugar
in the cake a little bit

so I can make a macadamia
coconut frosting

to pipe inside.

Ooh, we got this, chica.

Yes.

Let's go.

I forgot to grab the cake pan.

Oh, I'll grab one.

Hey, Em.

It looks like you didn't come
to the island just to cook, huh?

That is ready.

Can you pour it in and
get it in the oven?

Yep.

I'll start the glaze.

Got it.

Absolutely.

10 minutes left on
the clock, chefs.

Taste this.

Delicioso.

Let's plate.

OK.

Oh, that looks perfect.

You greased the pan, right?

Ah, Franky, I don't think I did.

I am so sorry.

I-- I'm so sorry.

It's just with Garrett,
I got all distracted.

It's all good.

It's all good.

We just need to
come up with a plan.

Five minutes left
on the clock, chefs.

You better start plating.

And rapido.

I have an idea.

Hi.

Hi.

And what do we have here,
Team South by Southeast?

Today, we prepared for you an
individual pineapple rum trifle

layered with macadamia
coconut frosting.

And a rum glaze.

Oh, well let's get in here.

I think that your cake
has a really nice texture

to it, a good crumb.

The frosting is perfectly sweet.

However, I think your
presentation is lacking.

You know, I have to
agree with Katie.

But that being said, the flavor
is delicious and on point.

Thank you.

Sorry.

No.

This was not your fault.

You were fantastic today, and
you made it to the next round.

That's what matters.

Thanks.

Don't underestimate
yourself, honey.

You know, I usually don't.

But it takes one negative
comment from Garrett,

and I just--

Emma, my sweet child.

You've got to stop giving that
man so much of your power.

When Garrett's
not around, you're

able to make showstopping meals.

Why does his presence make
you question your choices?

Because he has so much
experience, and his opinion

holds a lot of weight for me.

Darling, it's your
own unique instincts

that will get your
ahead in this life.

Your gut is the most
reliable opinion you can get.

Don't let Garrett keep
you from seizing the day.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Good morning, Ben.

Hey!

Aloha, surfer girl.

You're early.

That's because I
have decided today

is the day I am finally going
to stand up on my board.

That's great, but--

No, no.

No buts.

Nothing's standing in my way.

I am ready.

I just have one request.

Sure.

But Emma, I--

You're going to surf today, too.

Got to meet me halfway.

Whatever you say, boss.

The ground is not
swelling today.

It's totally flat
today, actually.

Did you know it was
going to be flat?

I tried to tell you, but you
were a little too excited

to hear me.

It's for the best.

My fearless confidence faded the
second my toes his the water.

You'll get there.

Don't worry.

Like I said, you've got
to surrender to the waves.

Well, I would have, if
they'd actually shown up.

Thanks for coming yesterday.

Oh, yeah.

Hey, that guy I met--

Garrett.

We were together for a
while, and he made a bunch

of promises he couldn't keep.

It's not the kind of
relationship I want.

And what kind of
relationship do you want?

Honesty.

Honesty would be really nice.

Well, honestly, if it
makes you feel better,

I tried Garrett's
frozen pizza line,

and it tasted like cardboard.

But not quite as good.

What about you?

What about me?

Oh, come on.

You know what?

You do the brooding,
mysterious thing very well,

but if you want me to trust you,
you've got to trust me, too.

What would you like
me to do, then?

I would like you to tell
me something about yourself

that no one knows.

Oh.

Well, I'm actually a huge
fan of Christmas movies.

Everyone is a secret
fan of Christmas movies.

Come on.

Stop deflecting.

Tell me something real.

Something--
something more like--

Like?

Like why don't you surf anymore?

Because I don't feel
like I deserve to.

Ben, we're going to
need more than that.

You said one thing.

Besides, I'm starving.

You hungry?

Always.

What is this?

Chinese beans.

You know, Ricardo makes the
best empanadas on the island.

Really?

Yeah.

It's over there.

I'll take you.

OK.

You know, I didn't realize there
was such a strong Puerto Rican

influence in Hawaii.

Yeah, there is.

Can I get these, please?

Thank you.

Yeah, yeah.

Did you know that there
are now over 50,000 Puerto

Rican descendants
living in Hawaii?

Really?

That's amazing.

Yeah.

It's a great story.

In 1899, there was a devastating
hurricane in Puerto Rico,

and it destroyed all
the sugar plantations.

So because of this,
there was a shortage

of sugar in the
world market, which

then put a huge demand on the
Hawaiian sugar production.

So after that, the
plantation owners

started recruiting Puerto
Ricans to the island.

Two?

It all started with 54 men
that made a hard journey.

When they arrived, it
was even harder for them.

But within a year, over 5,000
men, women, and children

made Hawaii their home.

Two of those settlers were
my great-grandparents.

Wow.

And here we are.

Thank you so much.

Yes.

Enjoy.

Thank you.

OK, wait.

That is--

I know.

Perfect.

That is-- yes, perfect.

These empanadas are incredible.

So did your family
come here, then?

No, we moved here 12 years ago.

You don't know who this is?

Ben was trying to be
number one on the circuit.

He was brought over
to compete and train.

Full ride.

The circuit.

You mean surfing?

Yeah.

That was another time.

Ricardo, gracias.

Any time, amigo.

Hey, and bring her back.

I like her.

Thanks.

I can't believe this
is where you live.

Part time, at least.

Most nights, I
crash at the shop.

Is that 10-minute
commute just too much?

Something like that.

You thirsty?

Yeah.

I'd love some water.

Your wish, my lady.

Thank you.

It is the best.

You won't find this in Atlanta.

No, I won't.

What?

Where is your kitchen?

OK.

Sorry.

Slim pickings.

That's my specialty.

Did I see some scallions
in your garden?

I'm on it.

Sorry.

I'm-- I'm really sorry.

I was just looking
for spoons, and--

That's OK.

That's--

Your girlfriend.

Of course.

She's gorgeous, and as your
friend, I think it's great.

I mean, you're a
surf instructor.

You chop down
coconuts from trees.

Of course, you
have a girlfriend.

Wife, actually.

She, uh-- she passed
away three years ago.

Ben, I'm so sorry.

No.

It's OK.

That looks delicious.

Let's take it outside.

The sun is going to set soon.

Her name was Estrella.

She had one of those presences
that just lit up every room.

Where did you two meet?

She was actually my eighth
grade pen pal in Puerto Rico.

Wow, that's so sweet.

Did she live far?

No, just a couple of hours on
the other side of the island.

Our schools thought it
would be a good way for us

to work on our writing.

Are you talking about actual
letter writing, or emails?

Oh, no, yeah.

Old school letters.

There was something
about never having

met in person that,
just let us be

totally honest with each
other in those letters.

So when the ninth grade
spring dance came around,

I worked up the courage and
asked her to be my date.

She said yes.

So her mom drove her the
two hours over to my school,

and from the moment I met her,
even though I was only 15, I--

I knew I was going to marry her.

After we got married,
we would move to Hawaii

for me to surf competitively.

And still, we never
stopped writing each other.

Sometimes, we'd
leave little notes

in hidden places for the
other one to find later.

So it's hard for me
to do the things I

used to do that brought me joy.

I don't think she'd
want you to feel

like you don't deserve to surf.

It's not that simple.

Well, we should
probably get you back

before June sends
out a search party.

So the market was
abuzz this morning.

Something about my brother
having quite the day

with a charming gringa.

What?

How?

It was--

Speaking of which, oh, look.

We don't have any dish towels.

I got to go get dish towels.

Hey.

Hey.

Listen, I really
wanted to apologize.

No, no.

I'm the one who
needs to apologize.

I know it's not coconuts, but--

These are absolutely beautiful.

Thank you.

Aw.

Hey, I just hadn't talked
about Estrella in so long.

Or at all, really.

And I know you were just
being a good friend.

Yeah.

No, of course.

A friend.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's-- and I'm always here,
if you ever need to talk

or anything.

Yeah.

Thank you so much for these.

It's really sweet.

I should probably
get back to prepping.

Yeah, yeah.

Right.

Right.

Of course.

Yeah.

Good luck today.

Thank you.

Welcome, everyone, to day
two of our competition.

Chefs, four teams remain.

But after today, only two teams
will move on to the finale.

Now for your
challenge today, you

will be cooking with one of
Hawaii's native vegetables,

the kalo, or taro root.

The kalo needs to be
the star of the dish.

Your time starts now.

All of my taro recipes
are very traditional.

Since the vegetable
is local, I feel

we should lean into
the Southern flair.

OK.

Well, taro food is very
similar in texture to a potato.

So I created a take
on Vermont potatoes

at Garrett's that
everyone went crazy for.

So what if we fry the taro,
we sub it for the potato.

I think the flavors will
come together really nicely.

OK?

Great.

Vamos.

How are you guys
doing over here?

Uh, we're fine, Chef.

Thank you.

You want to run anything by me?

We are doing a dish
based on Emma's take

on brabant potatoes.

Oh.

Um, you sure you
really want to do that?

I am, Chef.

Thank you.

It's just you have such
great recipes, Emma.

I really think you should
stand out from the rest.

Well, thank you very
much for your input.

I'm going to grab
our ingredients.

Hey.

Sorry to interrupt.

Are you doing this
brabant potato style?

Yes, with a cashew aioli.

It was Garrett's recipe.

What are you guys doing?

Not that.

Good luck.

I'll see you at
the judges' table.

Thanks.

You, too.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

We've got to make a new dish.

Are you crazy? Why?

No, no.

Mm.

That is delicious.

That sauce.

It is a paprika cashew aioli.

Wow.

I'm going to have
to get that recipe.

Well done.

Thank you, Chefs.

And last but certainly not
least, what do we have here?

Today we have for
you a mofongo de taro

with a Creole mojo sauce.

And a freshly picked
hibiscus and mint iced tea.

Mm.

Smells delicious.

You know, I love your
presentation so much more

today, and the twist you've
done on the sauce is great.

And your hibiscus mint iced
tea is super refreshing.

However, I feel like I want to
see more of your personality

in your food.

Like, you two are holding
something back right now.

I agree.

I think this is delicious, but
mofongo is in your safety zone,

and we're looking for
you to step outside.

This is good, but I'm not sure
it's enough to keep you here.

OK.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You all cooked
incredible meals today.

But unfortunately, two
teams have to leave us.

The first team to be
eliminated is the Spice Girls.

It was so good.

And the final team leaving us
tonight is the Saucy Sauciers.

South by Southeast,
you are in the finale.

I'm so happy for you guys.

Thank you so much.

So the Hawaiian ancestors
believed this land was sacred.

Somehow, it's remained
untouched all these years.

If you're lucky, you
will feel a ho'ailona.

Ho'ailona?

What's that?

It's a sign from the elements.

Like a cloud or a
breeze or even a bird

that will guide
you on your path.

I like that.

I always feel most connected
to myself when I'm here.

And I wanted you to see it.

What a stunning view.

Thank you for
sharing it with me.

Yeah.

So you never mentioned.

How long are you
planning to stay here?

That's a good question with
not a very good answer.

Well, while I still
have you, we've

got to get you to ride a wave.

And how exactly are we
going to do that here?

You know what?

I think I already
understand the lesson

without having to
actually-- you know,

we can just go down the path.

This was such a nice day.

Um, it was such a good hike.

You know, to be outside.

Do you have any more stories
about your ancestors,

or-- is this going to hold me?

You guys are all set.

Emma, I'm not going to
make you do anything

you don't want to do.

Oh!

Woo!

Just for the record,
I totally beat you.

You had a head start.

Oh, please.

Keep telling yourself
that, surfer boy.

Oh, wait till the
next surf lesson.

You're going to get it.

You have a beautiful
life here, Ben.

I do.

I guess I just forgot.

Hey, I-- I know I shut
down the other night.

No.

I said too much.

I'm sorry.

No, no, no.

Thank you.

It actually felt really good
to talk about her again.

I'm glad.

It's not just the loss.

It's that I wasn't
around to say goodbye.

Was it sudden?

She was riding her vespa to the
market when, out of nowhere,

a truck run a red light.

Oh, Ben.

That's so horrible.

I'm so sorry.

But it sounds like there was
nothing you could have done.

She was conscious for
another hour before she died.

But they couldn't
get a hold of me.

I was at a hidden
beach, surfing.

And 38 missed calls later,
while I was training,

I lost the only
chance to say goodbye.

That's so heartbreaking.

I'm sorry.

I haven't-- I
haven't surfed since.

I get it.

I really do, in my own way.

How so?

My dad's an army officer.

And five years ago, my parents
were stationed overseas,

but we all agreed to
meet here for Christmas.

But I canceled because of work.

And, um, my mom had a
sudden heart attack.

And I never saw her again.

That must have
been so difficult.

This is actually the first
time I've come back since.

And it was Aunt June who--

I mean, my goodness, she's
here, grieving her own sister's

death.

But we became really
close, and she

was the one who
helped me realize

I had to forgive myself.

And that all my mom would want
is for me to follow my dreams.

And to be happy.

Maybe someday, I'll get there.

You were the one who taught me,
the only way to make progress

is to stop looking back
and to look forward.

A very wise surf instructor said
you've got to ride the current.

Fight the current, that's
when you get in trouble.

Said that, huh?

I fo.

It smells in here.

It's like you can
just feel the history.

You certainly can.

Can you believe
the same method has

been used to craft the rum since
Kai's great-grandfather first

built this place in the 1800s?

That's unbelievable.

You know, you're lucky.

Not everyone finds what
you and Uncle Kai had.

Is Ben coming to the party?

He hasn't mentioned it.

We're just friends.

You know, there was
a time your Uncle Kai

and I were just
backgammon partners.

Don't you have to wait a while
after breaking up with someone

before you start dating again?

Says who?

I'd just gone through a
breakup when I met your uncle,

and three months
later, we were engaged.

We had one of those
instant connections.

Aw.

How does that saying go?

If you want to make
fate laugh, make a plan.

What is it?

Franky just texted,
come to the beach stat.

We came as quickly as we could.

Is-- what's going on?

Is that--

He's beautiful.

I mean, his-- his technique.

It's incredible.

No, you had it right
the first time.

Just beautiful.

I don't know how
to thank you, Emma.

I haven't seen him this
happy in a really long time.

Oh, Junie, I have
those pineapples.

Oh, wonderful.

Would you be a dear and
load them into my car?

Of course.

Onward!

Pineapples, we go!

Hey.

How long have you been here?

Long enough to understand
why you're considered

the best surfer on the island.

Eh, I'm a little rusty.

No, you're not.

You are--

Starving.

Wow.

Are you kidding me?

Thanks.

You know, this-- this reminds
me of my mom's cooking.

Really?

Did your mom cook Southern food?

No.

But she made delicious
food that was full of love.

Oh, hello, you two.

I hope I'm not
interrupting anything.

Although if I am, I
wouldn't be mad about it.

Hi, June.

We're just having a bite.

What are all these
pineapples for?

So I decided that we should
serve piña coladas at the party

tomorrow.

It was your uncle's favorite.

He would love that.

On that note, I got to get
back to the distillery.

This party won't throw itself.

Wait, what about
these pineapples?

You two get dicing.

We need lots.

You know your husband's
amazing, right?

Oh, yes, I do.

Why put a ring on it.

We've had so much
fun cooking together.

We have.

And I can't wait for the finale.

And we are definitely
going to come visit you.

When are you leaving, anyway?

I don't know.

I should probably start
figuring that out.

Sounds like somebody's falling
in love with the island.

Among other things.

Stop.

If you'll excuse
me for a second.

Wow, wow, wow.

You look stunning.

Thank you.

You look--

Hungry.

I know.

I was going to say handsome.

I wanted to thank you for
our talk the other day.

It really helped me.

I'm so glad.

You've really helped me.

I feel like myself again.

I feel like I can
go home and take

on anything that comes my way.

Right.

You're leaving soon.

Yeah, but I've got
to ride a wave first.

Well, as a instructor,
I should want

that to happen as
soon as possible.

But selfishly, I wouldn't mind
if it took a while longer,

you know.

I wouldn't mind, either.

I've-- I've grown quite
fond of my surf instructor.

If I'm being honest, I can't
stop thinking about him.

Is that so?

Because there's this
student that I can't get out

of my head, either.

Emma, there you are.

I've been looking
for you everywhere.

It's really not a good time.

I'm so sorry to interrupt.

Listen, I really need
to speak to you, Ems.

You're going to love this.

Trust me.

Can't it wait?

I'm going to go
grab us a drink, OK?

I'm so sorry.

No.

I'll find you in a bit.

OK.

Come with me.

Look, I've been thinking
about what you said,

and I owe you an apology.

What's the catch?

I'm serious.

My ego made it hard
for me to see clearly.

I know I didn't handle
things right with you.

Thank you for saying that.

I have an offer for you.

What is this?

It's everything you ever wanted.

What are you talking about?

So I had a call with my
investor group earlier today,

and they were going on and
on about how excited they

are about the food at
Garrett Weston's bistro.

And they wanted to know
what new restaurant

I'm going to open in Atlanta.

And I told them it would
be yours, under your name.

I mean, part of the Garrett
Weston collection, of course.

But you'd have complete
creative control

and you would finally
get the chance

to present your
recipes as your own.

That-- wow.

That's a lot.

That's-- I don't want you to do
me any favors, though, Garrett.

It's not a favor.

It's a smart business.

And it's what you deserve.

Look, even if you win this
competition, that's not enough

for you to open
your own restaurant.

It's the least I can do.

I don't know what to say.

Say you'll give me another
shot, as a business partner.

Thank you for this, Garrett.

Really, thank you.

But I have to think about it.

Of course.

But I need to let
them know by tomorrow,

so 24 hours, you could
have your own restaurant.

Sorry to interrupt back there.

No worries, man.

I actually want to thank you.

Yeah?

Why's that?

Well, you know, you've had
such a great effect on Emma.

And because of you,
she's in a great place

to live out her dreams.

I'm so glad.

She has had such a
great effect on me, too.

You know, actually, when her
and I come back to Hawaii,

maybe you should take us
both out for a lesson, huh?

I didn't think you and Emma
were spending much time together

these days.

Well, I mean, it's
a bit hush hush,

but it looks like we
might be opening up

another restaurant
again over in Atlanta.

Yeah.

I just surprised her
with the contracts.

Yeah.

I mean, I've been
promising her for years

but finally came through.

And she said yes?

She did not say no.

But you know, she's
looking it over.

Cheers.

I'm so confused.

He's offering me
everything I've ever

wanted on a silver platter.

Somehow, it feels like it
could be silver plated.

I know.

You're probably right.

I mean, his apology seemed
genuine, but my own restaurant.

It's just--

Ben?

Ben.

I'm sorry to interrupt.

Emma, can I talk to
you for a minute?

Yeah, of course.

I'll go grab a shrimp canape.

I'm really sorry about earlier.

No worries.

It seemed like it was important.

Garrett filled me in, actually.

He did?

Yeah.

Congratulations.

I haven't made any
sort of decision yet.

Ben, there's a lot to consider.

What's to consider?

This is your dream, right?

Yeah, it is.

But you've shown me--

Don't worry.

I'll be here to give
you lessons next time

you come to the island.

Wait, lessons?

No.

I haven't said yes yet.

But you should.

And I'm sorry, but I--

I can't do tomorrow's
lesson anymore.

New inventory coming in.

But the waves are
supposed to be ideal,

so you should still surf, OK?

Alone?

You got this, Emma.

You don't need me.

Maybe things weren't as
intense as I thought with Ben.

Are you trying to
convince yourself or me?

Because you're never
going to convince me

that you and Ben
aren't falling in love.

Love?

I think you're getting
ahead of yourself.

Am I?

I see the way you two
look at each other.

Honey, he looks at you
like Kai looked at me.

You and Uncle Kai had a
love that was very rare.

I think I'm more used to the
kind of love that starts out

as a romantic fairy tale and
then ends up with me getting

kicked out of the castle.

Not every relationship is
the one you had with Garrett.

Yeah.

You and Uncle Kai had it.

Our relationship was hard work.

We could get through
anything, as long as we stayed

honest and kind to each other.

Unconditional trust.

Trust.

Yeah.

That's a hard one for me.

I feel like every time
I open up and let go,

the rug just gets pulled
out from under me.

I really think you
need to trust yourself.

Just stand on your own two feet.

And I know, it sounds cliche,
but listen to your heart.

I've got to keep
the calm before the storm.

I don't want less.

I don't want more.

Must bar the windows
and the doors

to keep me safe,
to keep me warm.

Groundswell, you're mine today.

I can't see
in the stormy weather.

I can't seem to keep
it all together.

And I can't swim the
ocean like this forever.

And I can't breathe.

God, keep my head above water.

I lose my breath at the bottom.

Come rescue me.

I'll be waiting.

I'm too young to fall asleep.

So God, keep my
head above water.

Don't let me drown.

It gets harder.

I'll meet you there at the altar
as I fall down to my knees.

Don't let me drown.

Don't let me drown.

Don't let me drown.

And keep my head above
water above water.

So how long are you
going to be gone for?

I don't know.

It depends on the surf.

Uh, Kawaki is going to start
filling in at the shop starting

tomorrow.

I'm sorry I can't
be there today, man.

Sorry?

You're not sorry.

Dude, what are you doing?

I told you.

I don't want to stand in
the way of her dreams.

It's easier this
way for everyone.

Easier?

Easier for who?

For you, maybe.

This is not what Emma wants.

And you know what Emma wants?

I'm trying to protect her.

The Emma that I know
doesn't need protection.

Look, Ben.

We all know you
suffered a huge loss.

No one's going to take
that away from you.

You have a chance
for a new story.

And just because you're
starting to feel something

doesn't mean you have to run.

Panic a little, maybe,
pero aren't you tired?

When is this going to be enough?

Estrella, she
would want you to be happy.

Can you please just give
Emma this note for me.

Franky, por favor.

Be careful, brother, because
the bed you are making,

you are the one who's going
to have to lie in it, alone.

Seriously?

You're not the one who
lost everything that day.

The day Estrella
died was horrible.

But I lost her, and my brother.

I'm right here.

Really, Ben?

Because all I see is a ghost.

You know what?

I am tired of making excuses
for you and sticking up for you.

No.

I'm not going to
do that anymore.

I won't watch you blow
your second chance.

I won't.

Can't you see, I'm
doing this for her?

Just keep telling yourself
that, and maybe one day,

you're going to believe it.

Just go.

It's what you do best now.

You know what?

Sink or swim,
you're on your own.

Franky, come on.

You're my brother.

That's right.

I'm your little brother.

But I really miss having
my big brother around.

You don't understand.

I'm not going to go
through that again.

I can't.

Oh, I understand perfectly.

But I'm out of here because
I got people counting on me.

Mi amado , Ben.

How long did it take
you to find this note?

Do we already have kids?

It doesn't matter when
you find it because I

know our love is eternal.

Remember when you
asked me to prom?

You told me you had to
choose between love and fear.

You chose love, and I'm
so grateful that you

made that same choice
every day since.

Te amo , your pen pal, Estrella.

Yes.

Chef, I really
appreciate all the advice

you've given all week.

No worries.

The judges like what you're
doing, so keep it up, yeah?

Stay creative.

Thank you.

Hey, Em.

Good morning, partner.

Did you bring the papers?

Garrett, your offer is
incredibly generous.

And I know that it took a lot
for you to do that for me,

and I'm so grateful.

But I can't accept it.

What?

I really think this is something
I need to do on my own.

Do you realize what
you're passing up here?

Yes.

It's the dream.

But I also realize I've
been underestimating myself

for a long time.

And I was really convinced
that I needed you

in order to succeed.

And I've learned that
what I really need

is I need to trust
my own instincts.

And they're telling me
that this is a journey

I have to take without you.

Truth is, you're ready, Em.

Thank you, Garrett.

Really, thank you.

Hey, go get 'em.

See you out there.

Good morning, Mr. Diaz.

Buenos días, Miss Dawson.

Hey, have you heard from Ben?

I haven't been
able to reach him.

He left to go surf on the
other side of the island.

I'm sorry, Em.

Really?

Oh, well, do you
know for how long?

No, mi amor.

He left this for you.

Hello, Team South by Southeast.

It's the big finale today.

How's everybody feeling?

We're feeling great, Katie.

Thanks.

Yeah, just trying to get
our heads in the game.

Any words of wisdom for us?

If I can give you
one piece of advice,

it would be to cook with
your heart, not your head.

Whatever you're feeling,
put it into the food.

Good luck out there.

Thank you.

Welcome, everyone, to the final
day of the Big Wave cook-off.

Chefs, it's time for your
final challenge, which will

determine this year's winners.

Today, you'll be asked
to prepare not just one,

but two dishes--

something savory
and something sweet.

Now, your savory dish
should be something that

represents where you came from.

The sweet dish should
be something that

represents where you are today.

Now, remember, this is
your final challenge,

so don't hold anything back.

And you know the drill.

The time starts now.

Mm.

Ham and plantains in a dumpling.

Now, that's one I
wouldn't have thought of.

Really good.

And your dessert, so
stylish and modern.

I clearly see you've
taken Garrett's input.

This is going to be
a tough dish to beat.

Mm hmm.

Team South by Southwest,
tell us about the savory dish

that represents where
you both came from.

Today, we made for you
grilled ajillo shrimp

with grits, smoked Gouda,
bacon, and a touch of culantro.

This is a combination of our
mother's recipes that we love.

It represents both
of our childhoods.

And tell me about
your sweet dish that

represents where you are now.

We made a tropical
fruit pavlova.

It represents where
we are physically,

this beautiful island with
the incredible beaches.

But it also represents
where we are symbolically.

Waves, like life's challenges,
can seem really scary

from the shore, but once
you learn to ride them,

they're a lot gentler
than you think.

This is the final round.

We asked you to make
dishes that were

both exciting and innovative.

And not only did you
do that, but you also

gave us dishes that
come from your heart.

I can really taste
the love in these.

Delicious.

Well done.

You guys not only nailed the
flavor and the presentation,

but we love your background
story on both your dishes.

This is going to be a
really tough decision.

Sure is.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Chefs, you all did
an incredible job.

We'll announce the
winners shortly.

Please return to your stations.

cook-off and $50,000 is

Team South by Southeast.

Oh, my god!

We did it!

Ya!

Oh, my god.

You're so amazing.

Congratulations.

Thank you so much, Katie.

Thank you so much.

I'm so excited for you guys.

I don't want to bother you right
now, but how about the three

of us grab dinner
tomorrow night?

I have a little proposition
I'd like to talk to you about.

For sure.

What about Mercedes
Cantina at 6:00 PM?

Oh, that works for me.

Thank you so much, Katie.

Perfect.

See you there.

Thank you so much.

We did it!

Oh, my goodness.

We did it!

We did it!

Hey. you two.

Oh, thank you so much.

Oh!

Just ...

It was--

So happy

brilliant.

Thank you.

Hola, it's Ben.

Leave a message.

Ben!

Hey, it's Emma.

Listen, I know
you're out surfing,

but I just wanted to tell
you how much I appreciate

you supporting my dreams.

And I also wanted to let you
know that I stood up today.

I rode a wave, all by myself.

And I--

You did?

You're here!

I'm sorry I'm late.

You guys were incredible.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

And you caught a wave?

I did.

Look at you, Gidget.

What are you doing here?

I thought you were
away, surfing.

I was.

But an hour into my drive, I
realized that I was running--

Against the current?

You can't fight the waves, Ben.

You got to surrender to them.

And so I'm surrendering
to the fact

that I'm in love with a woman
who needs to leave here and go

live out her dreams in Atlanta.

I turned Garrett down.

But I thought he was offering
you everything you ever wanted.

Not everything.

Hot biscuits behind, behind.

Tracey.

Oh!

I've got a call.

One second.

Hola, chica.

How's my restaurant doing?

Burn anything yet?

How's my restaurant doing?

You break anything yet?

Oh, Katie Lee came
in last night.

She loved how you built that
open oven behind the bar.

Oh, that's great.

I mean, she was the inspiration.

Oh, listen, I've got to go.

But send my love to Sebastian,
and do not over-stir--

The biscuits.

I know.

I know.

Ciao.

Love you, bye.

Sheridan, hi.

What are you doing here?

Can a man come to Hawaii
and review the hottest

new restaurant?

Yes, he can.

Are you here alone?

I could not decide.

And no, I came with
my wife and son.

They're taking surf
lessons right now.

Did you know you have
some really great surf

instructors here?

I did.

Is it true that you
and Franky came up

with this idea over
dinner with Katie Lee?

Yeah.

I spent the last six months
getting the Atlanta restaurant

up and running, and then
Franky did the same thing here.

And then we switched

I love the concept
of you two switching

between sister restaurants.

That's the best of both
worlds, I would say.

You know what?

Couldn't have said
it better myself.

Listen, I wanted to
let you know in person

that I'm writing a full front
page feature on you both.

Sheridan, that means the
world to me and Franky.

We're just so-- we're so
happy you love our food.

By the way, Emma,
I know it was you.

Sorry?

That night at the
bistro, I know it

was you who made me
that spectacular meal.

How?

When I left my phone
behind, later I

realized it was still recording.

I'm just glad you're finally
getting the credit you deserve.

I can't tell you how
much that means to me.

I actually have to be somewhere.

So if you'll excuse
me, please enjoy.

And June can get you
anything else you need.

This is our signature
mango mojito.

On the house.

Enjoy.

Nice groundswell starting.

It's perfect.

Ready, surfer boy?

Yes, Chef.
