Nailed It! Mexico (2019–2021): Season 1, Episode 4 - Party Foul - full transcript

A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES

Today we have a Happy Hour
here on Nailed It! Mexico,

where it's the thought that counts.

Have you ever tried doing
something like this

but the result was something
more like this?

I'm Omar Chaparro,
and today, I'll be your shot of tequila.

Today, one of our three bakers
will walk away with $200,000.

Let's meet our bakers.

IT'S THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS

I'm Roberto Servín. I'm 34 years old,

and I'm from Poza Rica, Veracruz.



I studied art.

I'd like to put some of the things
I learned in pastry-making.

Oh, no, I was supposed to use cinnamon!

I knew it was missing.

I'll give some of the money I win
to charity,

and I'll invest the rest of it.

I'm Rosario Marthen.
I'm from Isla, Veracruz.

I'm 47 years old. I love baking.

Oh!

Look at the mess you made.

I cooked some bad dishes,
and my family told me:

"If I eat that,
I'll go to the hospital, right?"

We've been renting for 17 years,
and my sons says:

"Mom, when are we gonna have
our own home?"



Obviously, I want that $200,000
to take home for my children, right?

My name is Estela, I'm 80 years old...

I'm from Mexico City.
I travel when I have the chance.

I had the courage
to ride a 600-meter zip line.

After doing that, I fear nothing.

If I win the $200,000, I'm going to travel
around southeast Mexico.

Are you ready
for some fun and entertainment?

We are ready.

Let's start the party!

Welcome. Here with me you can see
our main judge Anna Ruiz.

-Hi, Omar.
-Hi.

And here we have one
of the best Mexican chefs, Aquiles Chavez.

He's really kind
and will be good with you.

-Welcome.
-Thank you.

We'll start with the first round
called Sweet Temptation.

-You mean Possibilities.
-Hit me.

We'll start with the first round
called Sweet Possibilities.

SWEET POSSIBILITIES

Never drink on an empty stomach.

In this challenge,
we'll learn that lesson from...

Cocktail cupcakes!

Here we have a mix
between cupcakes and cakepops,

representing a tequila cocktail.

As you may have guessed,
each one has a tequila infusion

and the cocktail ingredients in the cake.

Here we have the traditional paloma,
the green margarita,

and a cocktail created by me
that I like to call tepache and tequila.

Each one is decorated
with a fruit-shaped cakepop.

You're gonna go running to pick one
after I say "Let's party!"

Why did you pick the margarita, Estelita?

I didn't choose it,
it was the only one left.

-Oh!
-She wasn't quick enough!

Roberto, you look like your cocktail.

Put it beside you.

Yeah, you look alike.

Rosario, why did you choose the dove?

Because apparently it's easier to cook.

Take care of the details
and the flavor, of course.

I'm sure you're gonna do just fine.

Enjoy it, feel it and convey it, period.

That's all you need in the kitchen.

You'll have one hour and 15 minutes
to complete it.

Through the lips, over the gums,
look out, stomach, here it comes!

Bakers, go to your kitchens!

Go, Lulu!

Oh, my God! My God!

Tequila and water.

It's about cakepops and tequila,
what could go wrong?

What do you need
to prepare these cupcakes?

They're gonna need the classical recipe
with eggs and flour, but...

To prepare the cupcake dough,

pour tequila and dump the mixture
in the baking molds.

Prepare the icing
and add some drops of food coloring.

When the cupcakes are baked,

stack them up to form a cocktail.

Shape the cakepops by mixing
the cupcake sponge with the icing.

Finally, decorate the cupcake
using fondant and chocolate.

Look, she's cleaning!

She's the first competitor
who cleans the kitchen!

She's my kind of girl!

-Estelita!
-What's happening?

I don't have a granny. Would you like
to be my granny for today?

It would be a pleasure.

-So cute! I love her.
-I love her!

-Estelita
-Yes.

Three-quarters.

RECIPE: TEQUILA CUPCAKES AND CAKEPOPS
1. BAKE THE CUPCAKES

Rosario, how are you doing?

It's too loose.
Is that the way it should be?

I think I used more than I needed.

I've never done this.

One thing is to make a sponge cake

and another is making something
that looks like a dove, right?

You seem a little distracted.

You want to distract me.

Oh, God.

That much?

Man, I'm not sure about the flavor.

Roberto, is everything all right?

Yes.

Okay, think, think.

I could just add more pineapple
and then mix it.

If i taste it and I don't like it,
I can fix it.

When it comes to cooking,
not to be a brag, but I'm good at it.

As for baking...

Just a little.

It's all wrong!

She's desperate.

I think my age is an asset.

While they're going,
I'm already in my forth or fifth lap.

Let's taste it.

Look, she's putting her cake in the oven.

-And she's faster than Roberto.
-That's what I'm saying.

I have the cakes in the oven.
Meanwhile, I'll prepare the decoration.

Oh, green will look great.

I emptied about a bottle and a half,
but I needed more.

I really tried my best
and put in a lot of green

to reach the color I wanted.

Horrible.

Now I'm going
for the upper part of the eyes.

I've completed the bottom part.

I still have to make the mustache
and the tongue.

In this competition,
there's a $200,000 reward.

I think I am going to win it.

-Roberto.
-What's up?

I've finished.

-For real!
-Don't be a show off! Did you really?

I finished.

She's a liar.

Where is the food coloring?

Ah, orange.

Now that I have the cupcakes in the oven,
I have to prepare the icing.

Is this red?

Why is it not the same?

Her color looks more glowing,
more like Halloween.

Mouth coloring, you mean?

Mom, I'm poking them...
Make sure they're not raw.

I'll take one to make the grapefruit.

When I was taking out the cupcakes
from the mold, they were very hot.

So I set them aside to cool down

while I was preparing the cakepop.

The decoration on top of the cupcake,
such as the pineapple or lemon,

are the cakepops.

The cakepop is a mixture
of icing and cake.

But the cakepop texture is
not soft enough to be squeezed.

Oh, no!

No, no!

The challenge was making a cakepop.

I was upset
because it didn't look like I wanted.

Roberto.

How did you do it? It's not working.

What's not working?

The thing I'm supposed to do,
my lemon.

I've crumbled my cake
like you told me, but now...

Roberto is at Estelita's table.
Is he helping her?

Add more sponge and a bit of flour
so it won't stick.

Roberto, I love you being so helpful,
but attend your own business, man.

Ah, don't scold me.

I don't wanna stress you out,
but you have 15 minutes left!

-Come on, please!
-Let's go!

Should I just cover it like this?

It looks like the Tower of Pisa.
It's leaning.

-How are you doing, Rosario?
-I'm here to win!

This can't be!
I can't seem to get anything right!

But I won't quit. I'm gonna be
a cupcake expert after this.

Where does the tail go?

-It looks line a chicken to me.
-Yes.

Instead of a dove.

I making good time...
the others aren't even finished yet.

I finished.

I think Chayo is actually
a baking genius and expert

for having finished 17 minutes earlier,

or she didn't give a damn,
and now she relies on pure luck.

Hey, I do care, but I'm fast, too.

Really, I couldn't do better than that.

-Faster, kids.
-I'm on it.

Am I allowed to bring needle and thread
to stitch them up?

How was I supposed to hold them together
without using skewers?

Those skewers could be my defeat,

but how could I have done otherwise?
It was the only way.

She's really focused, isn't she?
Slow but focused.

She minds her own business.

She wants the real dough.

I chose the tepache
because I thought the shape was easy.

I think so far I'm doing well, very well.

Roberto studied art and drawing,

so you can see that the features
on the mouth and eyes look great.

One minute!

Hurry!

Green!

Estelita has just finished
with 30 seconds left!

Well done, Estelita!

-The dome!
-What dome?

I'm just gonna clean all this mess.

Come on, Robert! Hurry!

Four, three, two, one!

You're done!

I hope you give me an A-plus, okay?

Estela, let's go back
to what you had to do.

And now we can't wait to see
what you've done, Estelita.

Nailed it!

I don't know what's cuter...

Your cake or the way you said
so tenderly... How did you say it?

Nailed It!

You have a finely finished cake.

The eyes are good, the lemon looks real,
it also has a shining juice.

We didn't know what would happen,
but the result is great, the decoration...

-Can we taste it?
-Yes.

The tequila comes out a bit in the end.

The icing consistency is very good.

I feel the cakepop was clumpy,
and I think that was kind of a flaw.

Estelita, you Nailed It!

Nailed It!

Don Roberto,
we're seeing the original one.

And now we wanna see what you did.

Nailed it!

I did not see that coming, Roberto!

If SpongeBob was a zombie,
he would look like this.

From a distance, it looked incredible.
The mouth, the eyes, everything.

I said "Wow", and suddenly
I'm seeing it here falling apart.

Yeah.

What happened? The structure, right?

You went a little hard on the booze.

In spite of all, he keeps smiling.

Okay.

Oh, my!

Yeah, it's too sweet, really sweet.

-Sorry, bro, it's too sweet.
-Okay.

The pineapple is too much.

-Yeah, it tastes a lot like pineapple.
-Oh!

I liked the cake, but everything else...

The icing is okay, it's not bad.

-Did you taste the tequila in the cake?
-I forgot about the tequila, I didn't...

I love tequila, I'm the last person
you should ask.

-Okay.
-This serves as a warm-up.

-Thanks.
-Come on.

Rosario, we're remembering
the original work of art.

Let's see your replica from Veracruz.

Nailed It!

No wonder you finished earlier.

The dove is out of proportion...

Or it's a magic trick where the head
is here and the feet are there.

Let's see. Stand here.

-Come here.
-I'll do you, you do me.

Okay, Chayo, show us what you did.

You got it. Nailed It!
Look at my doll.

-You finished 17 minutes earlier.
-Because I'm really good at this.

Honestly, Aquiles,
what do you think of Rosario's dove?

Almost identical.

Go back there. Now let's taste it.

The cakepop.

Let's see.

Consistency is good,
texture is good. I like it.

The cake has a tender sweetness.

What's with all this tape doing here?

It was to widen the bottom.

Why didn't you use
the 17 minutes you had left

-to glue it with something else?
-Yes.

-Okay.
-Thank you.

-Congratulations.
-Well done, Chayo.

Okay, my dear bartenders,
gather up here, please.

Anna, queen of cupcakes and fondant,
who's the winner of the first round?

-Congratulations to all.
-Thank you.

But the one who impressed me
with their talent was...

You, Estela.

I won!

I feel so happy
for winning this challenge.

The party must go on!

Estelita, as we know,
you're a great bartender and baker,

and you won a stand mixer so you can keep
on baking those wonderful things.

And you also get to wear
the lucky Golden Cap.

It will give you superpowers
during the second round.

Here you go. It even matches
your leopard print.

Okay, thank you very much.

-Let's go to the after party?
-Let's go.

The after party is the second challenge.
Follow me.

NAIL IT OR FAIL IT

Friends, here we are
in the second challenge.

Aquiles, what's the deal?

Okay, behind this door,
there's a very exclusive event

for party animals only.

Yeah, DJ!

A turntable cake!

A DJ's most important equipment.

The vinyls are made out of chocolate,
and they actually spin.

In the middle of the cake,

all the buttons are made with chocolate
for a smooth sound.

And in the center of the turntable,
we obviously have DJ Marshmallow.

He's dizzy from that much spinning.

I know it's complicated,
but stay calm, don't panic.

If you need some help,
we can always offer you a good remix.

Just press the help button...

and we will help you for three minutes.

You can only use it once,
so press it when you really need it.

Okay.

My dear Roberto, we saw you struggling
during the first round.

So, we're giving you a bonus button.

The button is called hotline,
and only you can have it.

The hotline button will allow you
to call to a friend for three minutes.

-Okay.
-Are you ready to party with your cake?

-Yes.
-We're ready.

Vinyls, records... Let's see, Estelita!

They do it with the right hand.

Looks like you're cleaning
your workstation, Estelita.

Okay, bakers, you will have two hours
to make your masterpiece.

If you make a mistake,
say goodbye to the money.

So, three, two, one.

Let's dance!

I'll be more focused.

I'll make this DJ better
than what I did before.

A cup of cake flour, okay.

I have a question. I see each one
has a metallic structure.

Are they gonna put the cake there?

Yes, or puffed rice.
They could also use puffed rice.

First, bake two cakes that will form
the base of the turntable.

Cover with icing and carve two circles
to set the turntables inside the cake.

Drape the cake with black fondant.

Remember to cut out the spaces
where you'll put the chocolate discs.

Use modeling chocolate
to create the DJ's body

by molding his chest, arms and legs.

Shape the buttons and accessories with
fondant and paint them with cocoa butter.

Finally, make the DJ's marshmallow head
using puffed rice and fondant.

And there you have your DJ cake.

Two-thirds cup of butter.

How many sticks of butter
should I put in a cup?

You guys at home think this is easy?
Well, it's not.

With the stress, you don't know

if you need room temperature
or cold butter.

What's up with that?

I saw Roberto didn't melt the butter.

-And that's why you get a clumpy cake.
-All clumpy.

I love cinnamon.
In my desserts, I always use cinnamon.

So, this dessert will have cinnamon.

What do you think?

His mixture is too thick.

I'm missing something, it's not enough.

There's gonna be only one.

It's too much batter for a pan.

Do you think it'll overflow?

I thought it would be enough
for both pans.

I didn't calculate. I thought the mixture
was enough for two pans.

I'm doing another one.

Don't laugh!

Oh, my God.

I'm spreading some butter
so the cake doesn't stick.

I really like using my hands.

It's always been useful for me,
and I think it'll be useful today, too.

When baking at home, remember:
hands, butter and flour.

There's nothing like it.

In the name of our Lord.

I'm impressed that not only Estela
is doing great with a steady pace,

but also her kitchen is squeaky clean!

All right, the cake mixture is
in the oven.

Now, I'm moving onto the icing.

I would like to give it a black color
to avoid using fondant.

It's not black.

-Annita, do you dance?
-I love it.

-What do you like to dance?
-Pop music and merengue and all that.

All that.

I'm embarrassed because

I think everybody sees me and says,
"Look at that guy, he can't dance."

-Don't worry.
-Smile.

-Like Chayanne.
-Smile.

Why don't we go dance for our competitors?

Don't say anything, just dance.

Why like that?

What are you doing?

Just do your thing, do your thing.

Keep going.

♪ Smell my shampoo ♪

♪ Smell my shampoo! ♪

♪ I'll beat your eggs ♪

♪ Smell my shampoo
I'll beat your eggs ♪

-Good!
-Well done, team!

-Extra point!
-Well done, that's it!

What do you like top dance?

-Danzón, the cha cha...
-Danzón?

Since I've never done
these chocolate discs,

I'm gonna press the help button.

-Help.
-Help!

-Hi.
-What happened?

-Well, I'm making the chocolate discs.
-The records, the vinyls, okay.

To release from the pan...

The plastic can be easily removed.

Don't touch the chocolate
or you'll get your fingerprints on it.

Don't let it sit too long in the fridge.

How long should I leave it?

Say five to ten minutes.
Ten minutes to be sure.

-Ten minutes.
-And keep an eye on them.

My time is over.

I'd rather start with the DJ's head.

I have to hurry up.

Oh, my God.

Why did I get involved in this?

The head doesn't look as smooth as hers.

Okay, it's in God's hands.

Let's see the cake. I think it's ready.

What? Estelita's cake is ready?
And I put mine first and look!

I think one is enough.
Look how it swelled.

Now it's overflowing.

It overflowed.

One is enough.

Ouch!

Why won't this melt? It's really hard.

I can't do this guy's body.

Wait until I do the figure.

No, it's loose again.

I'm remembering my art classes
and how I just skipped them.

Now I understand how important
it was for me to attend that class.

What is she doing?

It looks like a mutant.

It shouldn't be a mummy!

I'm trying to do the eyes
with black fondant.

Guys, 45 minutes! Estelita!

I was thinking about using some
of this cake for the body,

because I want to give it a shape.

Hope this works.

I thought it was easier to make it out
of cake and cover it

with the material that was for the body.

I married a real full-grown man.

I never had to shape a man,
much less a disc jockey.

I want to see if it fits.

3. BUILD THE TURNTABLE

Now I know why I've never done this.

I've never used this thing.

Using that fondant thing,
my God, is horrible.

Now, the buttons.

Ladies and gentlemen,
the dance club doors open in ten minutes.

I see Estelita has just started the DJ,
and she doesn't have the fondant in...

-Yes, I know.
-In the cake.

It's all sticky now.

-She's desperate. I feel bad for her.
-Estelita.

I felt defeated.

I do things taking my own time,

but here it was all about
doing it right and fast.

Have you ever seen someone
with a square eye?

It's awful!

I haven't done the records,
but I'm going to set the cake.

I'm afraid her turntables won't spin.

Can I do one without records?

Poor Estelita.

Let me see what else I can find.

Oh, the records!

Shoot, they won't make it.

I didn't get them out on time.
It looks more...

Oh, no!

Yes. I did it right!

4. DECORATE!

Now, let's paint the DJ wheel.

I won't have time, and I still have to
make all the buttons.

So, I'm putting cookies and gums,
whatever comes to hand for the buttons.

I finished.

-Rosario just finished again.
-Yes, I saw that.

Again, Rosario?

I can't do better.

I think she was the typical girl in school

that would finish before the rest and say,
"I'm done, teacher."

"What's for homework?"

Yes, that kind of girl.

One minute!

My God, it's so ugly!

I'm falling behind!

Five!

Four, three!

-Please, don't move!
-Two!

One!

You're done!

Nailed it! No, not yet? Okay.

First let's see the original cake.

And now, we want to see your creation.

Nailed it!

Estelita! Not bad.

It just seems that rather than mixing...
this DJ is going crazy, like...

It's just that the arms fell down.
They wouldn't stick.

-Okay.
-So he said, "You made me so ugly."

He's about to crash.

-Yes.
-Like this, "No!"

Estelita, can you put on your cap?

Oh, yes. I left it out there.

Where's Estelita's cap? Production!

-I'll help you put it on, Estelita.
-Thank you.

You were very creative.

This gums and sweets you used
for buttons instead of making them.

And the records are sponge cake,
and it should be chocolate.

But this is no modern turntable.
It's more like a jukebox from your age.

Well done, congratulations, Estelita.

Thank you.

Next up is Mr. Roberto.

Now let's see the booth from DJ Roberto.

Nailed it!

Roberto, this is...

...very different
from your dead SpongeBob.

The head is great,
you did an incredible job.

The fondant looks really nice.
The body looks kind of weird though.

-Okay.
-And the hands you painted...

The torso looks
like a big piece of chorizo.

No, actually, you know what?
He's wearing his jeans too low

because it's a trend.

Sure, good.

You were much better this time
compared with the first challenge.

Thank you.

-Congratulations.
-Thank you.

Chayo, we would like to see now
what you've done.

Okay.

Nailed it!

Chayito...

First, the positives.

-It's the only turntable that is spinning.
-Yes. Good.

-Yes, nice. Very good.
-That's an upside.

Well, I see the fondant is cracked.

The excess sugar
made the black fondant crack.

And it's true, the DJ might be
a little strange.

You needed to clean out the whole cake.

You didn't use fondant on the head,

but you managed
to make the headphones with fondant.

A very scary DJ.

He's missing his mouth.

-He does have a mouth, he's whistling.
-That's right.

In the meantime, please slice
a nice tasty piece of cake

and serve us.

-Thanks. Bravo!
-Congrats, everyone.

Estelita, come here.

Let's begin with Estelita's cake.

The texture is fine.
I would have used more filling.

-It tastes really nice.
-Thank you.

Estelita, I feel it's a bit dry,
but the top icing is really good.

-Thank you.
-I liked it a lot.

You can tell this cake is homemade,
very grandma style.

It reminded me of the one
my mother used to make.

Thank you.

But I agree, a bit dry.

-"I loved it, delicious..."
-Oh!

But the way her face changed.

"You took me back to when I was
eight years old, but it's too dry."

Let's move on to Roberto.

Roberto.

The texture is fine, a bit overcooked,
and besides, it's clumpy.

And the icing has cinnamon.

-No.
-Oh, the cake.

I think the cinnamon surprised me.
I wasn't expecting it.

I love it, but it's gross.

The cinnamon reminds me
of when I was a kid.

You made me go back to my childhood.

And I really loved the fluffiness.
It's really delicious.

-Thank you.
-Now let's taste Chayito's cake.

The filling was not really there.

The flavor is not bad,
but it doesn't have a unique taste.

Thank you.

It lacks sweetness,
you know I have a sweet tooth.

It's well-cooked, but down here,
you can see it's a little burned.

To me...

-It reminded me of your mom again.
-It reminded me...

It reminded me of this aunt I hate.
No, I'm kidding.

The flavor is good. The bottom
and the top of the cake are overcooked.

And you could also eat it
with a glass of milk watching Netflix.

Thank you.

Honestly, it was very hard
choosing the winner of the $200,000.

Besides that,

the winner will get no more, no less
than the trophy of Nailed It! Mexico.

Production, the trophy!

The trophy.

What are you doing? Can't you just
bring it over without being seen?

Don't we have money for a motorized cart
so these dudes don't have to lay here?

It's time to announce the winner
of Nailed It! Mexico.

For that, obviously, our Fondant Queen,
our head judge will do the honors.

I want to congratulate the three of you
for your hard work.

And the winner of Nailed It! Mexico is...

It's you, Roberto!

-Roberto!
-Yes!

$200,000.

-Congratulations!
-Congratulations, Chayo.

-Thank you.
-Well done.

I won!

-Here, take it!
-Thank you! My trophy.

I feel really lucky.
It's such a joy I cannot contain,

and I want to spread it everywhere.

-Let's take a selfie!
-Selfie!

Congratulations to all!
This was Nailed It! Mexico.

If you're gonna have fun and party,
remember, don't drink and drive.

Go out, celebrate, but first, binge watch
Nailed It! Mexico season one on Netflix.

Bye!

-Come here, Grandma!
-Here's your grandson!
