Master Wan wins, congratulations.

Brother Tsai.

Yes.

Let me do the last course!

Last course?

I change my mind.

I want to do my own course.

You must be kidding.

Not to let you experiment.

Not to let you experiment.

What exactly do you want to make?

Scrambled Tomato and Eggs.

Scrambled Tomato and Eggs?

Are you crazy?

You want to make that dish

for the contest?

Isn't the Heaven of ice and Fire

all ready?

It went bad.

Where does the Hsia you mentioned live?

In Back-Site.

In the backside?

There's no one in the backside.

Hsia loved my Fried Rice Noodle.

She never ate the noodles

I made her though.

You know who ate them instead?

She gave them to Hsiung.

So Hsia's Fried Rice Noodle

were made by you.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Master Tsai

will now serve his last course.

He's not Master Tsai.

Even I know what that is.

It's Scrambled Tomato and Eggs.

Did you make this?

Yes.

Many mothers can make it too.

Maybe you're watching me live on TV.

Although

you left me when I was 6,

the day that you left me

you made Scrambled Tomato and Eggs

that I still remember even now.

Now

I just want to tell you.

I don't resent you anymore.

I'm doing fine.

Please don't worry.

Please enjoy.

Mothers are like the Moon

Shining through the window

With dedication and kindness

Sending out rays of love

Mama.

Mama.

He's standing up on his own!

Awesome!

Mama.

Mama.

He's standing up on his own.

Mama.

Don't judge a book by its cover.

Don't judge a book by its cover.

It's now the final course.

Master Wan

But you're using a big bowl

for the final course.

What's your final course?
