Today is not any other day. (Y/n) is at Marinette's house to help her make a good impression on her great-uncle. Not only that, but her uncle will be on a great food show on TV. "You'll see (Y/n). I'll say it just fine." Marinette presses the microphone button on the app. "Welcome to my home. My name is Marinette." The app translates what she said. She then began to repeat the translation, but she pronounced it wrong. "No, that's not right." She repeats it again and gets it correct. "Awesome, Marinette." (Y/n) smiled. "I'm so nervous! Do you think he'll like them?" Marinette grabs the flowers from the coffee table. "Of course he will, they're fine." (Y/n) placed her hand on Marinette's shoulder. "They can't be fine, they have to be perfect! My Mom's uncle is a super famous Chinese chef. He's very particular, so things have to be just right." Marinette explains. They heard the doorbell ring. "That's him!" Marinette goes over to open the door, but she trips. (Y/n) goes over to help Marinette up. They both go to open the door. There on the other side is Marinette's great-uncle, Wang Cheng. He bowed and greeted them in mandarin.
"Uh, welcome Mari you're at Nette's. Uh ah, welcome to Marinette's! You're Chinese! No no no no! In Mandarin!" Marinette tries to greet him in mandarin but messes up. She quickly grabs her phone as she gives the flowers to her uncle. Marinette whisper to the translator app. "Welcome to my home. My name is Marinette. Ugh, this is so lame." The app translates everything Marinette said, even the part she said it's lame. She tries to close it, as (Y/n) covers up her laughter. Once the app closed, Marinette and (Y/n) welcomed Weng Cheng inside. Seeing Marinette was in panic mode, (Y/n) quickly pulled out her phone and called Alya. She put her on speaker so Marinette could hear. "Hey, Alya, could you help us out? Marinette is freaking out about her mom's uncle. You know the one she told us about?" Marinette pulled the phone closer to her. "I don't know how to pull this off."
Alya: Chill out Marinette, I got the solution. Just hang tight.
Alya hangs up before Marinette could speak more. "Thank you! You're amazing. What solution?" Marinette realized that Alya had hung up. (Y/n) took her phone back and smiled at her friend. The girls sat on the sofa with Cheng Shifu as they waited patiently for Alya's help. They finally heard the doorbell ring. Marinette runs to answer it while (Y/n) follows. "Hey, Marinette! Hey, (Y/n)!" Turns out that Adrien was Alya's plan. "Hey, Adrien." (Y/n) waved. "ADRIEN!? What in the—uh—what are you—" Marinette was freaking out. "Alya called me. She said you needed someone who speaks Chinese. Well, here I am! Translator at your service." Adrien bows. "No! I mean, yes! Uh, where's Alya?" Marinette asked. The girls received a text and it was Alya who confirmed her plan. The three friends smiled at each other.
The three teenagers were in the car with Cheng Shifu as they make their way toward the contest. As they rode in the back, Adrien was talking with Cheng Shifu. Marinette's great-uncle was really impressed with Adrien's Chinese.
"Oh, my English very bad. Not like your Chinese." Cheng Shifu spoke. "I thought you couldn't speak English," Adrien said. "Neither did I." (Y/n) shyly raised her hand. "Uh, me too." Marinette was amazed. "Oh, no, not good. My English not good." Cheng Shifu explains. Marinette smiled as (Y/n) gave her thumbs up.
Alec: Since our "World's Greatest Chef" contest kicked off, the best culinary masters from around the globe have been blowing our minds with their gastronomic creations.
Mayor Bourgeois goes over to greet Marinette's great-uncle. "Cheng Shifu, I am delighted and honored to have you on our final show, where you will have the chance to defeat all of the chefs who have competed thus far." Cheng Shifu smiled as he and the three teenagers walked inside.
Alec: Only one will be awarded the title of "World's Greatest Chef." The winner's dish will become the new Mayor's Special on the Grand Paris's menu! Tell us Cheng Shifu, what dish will you be honoring our panel with today?
