Heath cooked dinner for Xiuhui, Xiumei, and Xiunian while Mew and the others watched from the Lounge. He served curry omurice to Xiumei and Xiunian, then struggled to make the old-fashioned white bread and other food Xiuhui requested.

• Mew and Zoroark discussed Heath serving three spirits, and Mew worried that Heath might eventually send it away if he caught it.

• Heath researched Xiuhui's white bread request and spent a long time making an old-style loaf, then found her sausage requirements baffling.

• Heath recognized Xiuhui’s fifty-denomination banknote as a valuable first-edition League note and decided it would make a gift for Sister Ling.
• Heath crushed Xiuhui’s memory light and learned that her mother had been her only comfort before she died, and that Xiuhui was later beheaded with the noble family.

• Heath reflected that his restaurant offered no regular days off and wondered whether he should establish one.

• Heath focused on preparing a vegetarian dish and thought of making a salad.

Heath served a vegan meal to a beautiful customer and discovered that she was Celebi, who had come to try his cooking on Ho-Oh’s recommendation. He received a Time Hourglass from the meal, while Celebi decided to give him something as payment.

• Heath prepared vegetable salad, fennel soup, and stir-fried baby bok choy for the girl.

As customers returned to Heath’s food truck, Zoroark reported that someone had ordered a meal without having any money, and Heath went to investigate.
