. I ve no doubt you ve been around the block, Gus said. But a ten-minute Internet show? It s not what we re doing here. Gus was not pleasedat the back-and-forth over the menus for the upcoming episodes of Eat Drinkand Be.Her shows without a cohost had always been easy to plan.And shewasn t impressed with the idea of presenting fussy dishes: as a mom, she hadmore respect for her busy peers.Also discouraging was that Alan was forcing them to do a mini-season "1 0 0 kat e j ac ob stest run: Gus was essentially auditioning for the job she d held for the lasttwelve years.It was infuriating. FlavorBoom was extremely popular, Car-men said, her voice icy. With frat boys, said Gus. What the hell did you do in ten minutes?Dress up mayonnaise.Make chips and dip.Toss a salad. Gus was gettingcranky but she tried valiantly to keep herself in check.The last thing shewanted to seem was shrewish.She cleared her throat and tried her most pro-fessional voice. My point, Carmen, is that the average viewer on the Cook-ingChannel is looking to be entertained and inspired, not overwhelmed.We try to use foods that are easy to find, and that have some sort of familiar-ity to the viewer. Novelty keeps people interested, said Carmen. And by the way, I don tdo fancy mayonnaise. I like mayo well, really aioli, but same idea. Oliver hadn t spoken formost of the meeting, uncomfortable about being so late, annoyed with Car-men, intimidated by Gus, worried about Porter s impression of him. Wecould make a fish with aioli. Gus and Carmen each shot him a nasty glance.Oh, brother.He slunkdown in his chair a smidge. Ah, he speaks, Porter said, appraising Oliver. Look, it s clear Carmenand Gus have different ideas and I want the three of you to go shoppingtogether, and then come back and cook.Without cameras, without pres-sure.See what you can put together in the studio kitchen, learn each other sstyles a little bit. But we can t even agree on the basics of a menu, began Carmen. Myconcepts aren t being respected by some of the women in the room. Trust me, Carmen, he said simply, you ve got innovation and spice.Gus has sophistication and a proven track record.I ve had a lot of hit showsand together whether the two of you like it or not I m going to make surethat Eat Drink and Be is my best one yet.
