Hey Ashlyn.

[ OR IS IT

An AU plays... Ashlyn, you're British now. A comedian. And you've been recruited into a baking competition to raise money for cancer research despite never having baked before in your life.

It doesn't go well, and your judge, Geto, makes sure that you know it... ]

H...ey...

[ she's a little offended on her AU self's behalf, honestly... ]

I've never even baked before.

Me neither.

... But I can tell when something isn't baked.

I don't think I'd be that bad at it. You just have to follow instructions, right?

I think so, but people still screw it up.

You've never cooked anything? Not even in school?

I've cooked things like... scrambled eggs I guess? But my parents do all the cooking. And there's not really a baking class at my school or anything.

[ she almost asks if there is at his school and then remembers everything she knows about his school and decides she doesn't need to ask. ]

Really? There's always a home economics class in elementary school and junior high.

How do kids learn how to cook in America?

Uh... Internet? I guess?

Isn't that kind of tough...?

Probably...?

[ she has not really even tried to learn yet so WHO KNOWS!! it's a mysterious world ]

And you think you'd make a better flapjack than that?

[ Hm. ]

Actually, what is a flapjack?

I thought it was just another word for pancake. I could make pancakes, there are instructions right on the box.

What if I ask you to prove it and trick you into making me some?

If you really wanted. You'd have to obtain pancake mix and all the other ingredients, though.

Do you need pancake mix? You can't just use flour?

Can you?

What do you think pancake mix is made out of?

I figured there was more to it than just flour. Otherwise why does it need its own packaging and stuff?

[ watching you try to die in trial ]

Oh, there's probably baking powder. But you can add that in.

[ try? ]

So it's a mix. Pancake mix.

[ COLA ]

But it's not made of anything you can't find normally...?

The point is just that I need those things.

You can't find them?

I haven't looked for them. Since I don't usually cook...?

I'm starting to doubt that I'm ever going to get these pancakes.
