Mary
Are you OK, Gordon?

Gordon
Yes. Just leave me to cook.

Mary
OK, don't bite my head off.

Ceilia
Is everything OK?

Gordon
It's this recipe - I can't get it right. It's doing my head in.

Ceilia
Maybe I could help?

Gordon
What do you know about cooking?! Don't forget: I'm the chef.

Ceilia
Well, I used to cook for you at home, when we were married - before I became your boss.

Gordon
That was beans on toast - this is very different.

Peter
Table three... or is it two... wants to know where their food is.

Ceilia
Maybe I could just help you...

Gordon
For crying out loud! You're driving me crackers! You've ruined it! What am I going to do now?

Peter
Maybe... I could go and get something ready-made from the supermarket?

Gordon
From the supermarket!!! Don't make my blood boil more than it already is. Do you think world-class chefs buy ready meals from the supermarket? Honestly!

Mary
OK, don't blow your top. When I was young my mum would add a spoonful of mustard into all her cooking and it made everything taste so nice. Now, why not give that a go?

Ceilia
Go on Gordon, give that a go, and maybe it will stop you getting so hot under the collar. 

Gordon
Very well. Hmm, doesn't taste bad. I think I've created something good here.

Peter
Well done Mary - we should name the dish 'The Mary Miracle Meal' after you!

Gordon
No, I don't think so. We'll call it 'Gordon's Greatest Goulash'.
