## Story

King Jack arrives to the Pastel Palace’s kitchen announcing to Gwen that her portrait has been finally finished, telling her that the portrait is “Perfectly her, in every way”. Leopold tries to corroborate by saying that once the portrait is hung up in the palace walls, it will serve as a reminder of Gwen’s stately beauty. Yet he is cut off by the King announcing that the portrait will not be hung up in the Pastel Palace. He leaves and, being left the two alone, Leopold tells Gwen he’s had a wonderful time getting to know her, and that he has a hunch they will run into each other again if a “little worm” pulls himself together on time.

Oblivious to what Leopold’s referring to, Gwen thanks Leopold for his advice and gifts him a bread made by herself. Leopold gives Gwen a sketch of her and Jamie. He apologizes for not being able to help Gwen with how to learn to love herself, but tells her she’s never alone because her family and friends will always be there for her. He hopes that if she ever feels alone and in doubt of what she deserves, she will see the sketch of Jamie looking at her because it shows the look of someone who truly believes she deserves the world. Leopold admits that for the very first time he was able to see Jamie as who he truly was, someone who isn’t afraid to love and protect his sisters, which is really beautiful in Leopold’s views. However, he claims that Jamie shall never hear those words come out of his mouth.

Gwen tells Leopold that she’s about to go to give Jamie his lunch and asks if he wants to accompany her. Horrified by the sweets monstrosity that is Jamie’s lunch, he makes a salad for him. As they encounter a big line waiting in front of him, Gwen tells Leopold about Jamie's career as a food critic and mentions his ability to taste people’s feelings and thoughts. Appalled by the fact, Leopold tries to stop him from tasting his salad, but fails. He ends up admitting directly to Jamie that he finds him quite beautiful, which Jamie brushes off by saying he can taste that in every dish he tastes.

There are small glimpses of Prez and Curtis doing works on the barn, the plaid brothers trying to help Frederick ask Gwen out, and Whitney walking around, seemingly searching for something. At the end, there’s a scene of Nell talking horrified in her sleep saying that “The clouds are converging tomorrow.”
