The cook, Miss Qiao, comes in and apologizes for the accident. She says that the accident was caused by a sudden fall, and that she will make tea for everyone when her legs are better the next time. The cook tells her that the pastries her mother made for her when she was a kid are better than those sold in famous pastry shops. The baker says that his mother's pastries were the best, as long as he likes them. He says that he will catch up with her in the next few years, as he has been making pastries for the past eleven years. He adds that even when he works with the gang, his boss will ask him to prepare late-night pastries in advance. Everyone knows that the boss will be fired if he continues to work like this, but the cook says that she knows what to do.
