Evacuate! Everyone, to the boats.

• The book.

Excuse me. Move, move.

Go, go, go, go. Move, move, move.

Get the bridge up! Move it, move it!

Hey, Johnny! Hurry!

Push off. Come on.

Hey, wait for me!

Is everybody here? Do we have everybody?

• Wait a minute. Where’s Remy?
• Right here. I’m coming.

I’m coming!

Hold on, Son. Give him something to grab on to.

Come on, boy. Paddle, Son.

Come on. Reach for it.

You can do it.

• Remy!
• Dad!

Come on. You can make it. You can make it.

Guys, wait. Stop!

Remy. Come on. Paddle.

Hold on! Wait for me. Hold on.

Dad?

Dad?

Which way?

I waited

for a sound, a voice, a sign, something.

If you are hungry, go up and look around, Remy.

Why do you wait and mope?

Well, I’ve just lost my family, all my friends, probably forever.

• How do you know?
• Well, I…

You are an illustration. Why am I talking to you?

Well, you just lost your family, all your friends. You are lonely.

Yeah. Well, you’re dead.

Ah, but that is no match for wishful thinking.

If you focus on what you’ve left behind, you’ll never be able to see what lies ahead.

Now go up and look around.

What are you doing?

I’m hungry.

I don’t know where I am, and I don’t know when I’ll find food again.

Remy, you are better than that. You are a cook.

A cook makes. A thief takes. You are not a thief.

But I am hungry.

Food will come, Remy.

Food always comes to those who love to cook.

• You think I am playing?
• You don’t have the guts.

Paris?

All this time I’ve been underneath Paris?

It’s beautiful.

The most beautiful.

Gusteau’s? Your restaurant?

You’ve led me to your restaurant.

It seems as though I have. Yes. There it is! I have led you to it!

I got to see this.

• Ready to go on table seven.

• Coming around.

• One order of steamed pike up.
• Coming up.

I need more soup bowls, please.

I need two rack of lamb. I need more leeks.

I need two salmon, three salade composee, and three filet.

Three orders of salade composee working.

Firing two orders, seared salmon.

Three filet working. I need plates.

• Three salade composee up.

Hello, Chef Skinner. How your night be now?

• Bonjour, chef.

• Hello, Chef Skinner.

• Evening, chef.

Hey, boss, look who is here.

Alfredo Linguini, Renata’s little boy.

• Hi.
• All grown up, eh?

You remember Renata, Gusteau’s old flame?

• Yes. How are you…
• Linguini.

Yes, Linguini. So nice of you to visit. How is…

• My mother?

• Renata.

• Yes, Renata. How is she?
• Good.

Well, not… She’s been better. I mean…

She died.

Oh.

I’m sorry.

Oh, don’t be. She believed in heaven, so she’s covered.

You know, afterlife-wise?

• What’s this?
• She left it for you.

I think she hoped it would help me, you know, get a job here.

But of course. Gusteau wouldn’t hesitate.

Any son of Renata’s is more than…

Yes, well, we could file this and if something suitable opens up…

We have already hired him.

What? How dare you hire someone without my…

We needed a garbage boy.

Oh, garbage. Well…

I’m glad it worked out.

Uh…

I can’t believe it.

A real gourmet kitchen, and I get to watch.

You’ve read my book. Let us see how much you know, huh?

Which one is the chef?

• Very good.

Who is next in command?

The sous chef. There.

The sous is responsible for the kitchen when the chef’s not around.

Saucier, in charge of sauces. Very important.

Chef de partie, demi chef de partie, both important.

Commis, commis, they’re cooks. Very important.

You are a clever rat. Now, who is that?

Oh, him? He’s nobody.

Not nobody. He is part of the kitchen.

No, he’s a plongeur or something.

He washes dishes or takes out the garbage. He doesn’t cook.

• But he could.
• Uh, no.

How do you know? What do I always say?

Anyone can cook.

Well, yeah, anyone can. That doesn’t mean that anyone should.

Well, that is not stopping him. See?

What is he doing? No. No! No, this is terrible!

He’s ruining the soup. And nobody’s noticing?

It’s your restaurant. Do something.

What can I do? I am a figment of your imagination.

But he’s ruining the soup! We got to tell someone that he’s…
