00:10Tobias Durand, portrayed by Andrew Garfield, plays the role of a representative for Weebitix.
00:19In the midst of finalizing his divorce, he finds himself without a working pen.
00:26A simple trip to buy new pens and a snack takes a sudden turn when he drops something on the road.
00:34As he bends down to retrieve it, a car unexpectedly hits him to the hospital.
00:41Tobias is met by Almut Braul, Florence Pugh, the driver that hit him. After she apologizes,
00:50she invites him out for dinner. He tells her about her job, while she says that she is a
00:57chef and restaurant owner. She invites Tobias to attend her restaurant for dinner along with
01:04his wife, as she notices the ring on his finger. But he doesn't tell her the truth. Tobias goes to
01:12the dinner by himself and is quickly astonished by a small sample of food that Almut has prepared
01:19for him. She approaches him, and he admits that he is in the process of a divorce.
01:27After the dinner, the two go back to Almut's place to have sex. In the morning, Tobias goes
01:35through her stuff and sees that Almut was in a previous relationship with a woman named Adrienne
01:41Duval, Marama Corlett. Almut states that while they did love each other,
01:49Adrienne wanted to start a family and Almut did not feel the same. Similarly,
01:55Tobias' wife chose a new job in Sweden over starting a family. Tobias and Almut begin
02:03dating and living with each other. They have dinner with Tobias' father, plus Almut's mother,
02:11father, and brothers. Tobias learns that Almut was a figure skater, something that she was not
02:19too keen on him finding out. She tells Tobias about her past doing it and how it made her happy.
02:28The two spend the next few months in a relationship that quickly grows into something
02:33more. However, when Tobias brings up the topic of starting a family, he admits to Almut that he
02:42would like to start one with her because he feels that he is falling in love with her.
02:47She remains firm in her decision and angrily tells him no. Not long after, Tobias finds Almut
02:56at a baby shower. He confronts her in front of her friends and admits that he was pushing it
03:03with the proposal of starting a family. But he also lets Almut know he didn't like the way she
03:10responded to him. He once again tells her he loves her and they make up. While cooking, Almut starts
03:19to get a pain in her midsection. After a diagnosis, Almut tells Tobias that she has ovarian cancer,
03:29with her gynecologist recommending that she get a hysterectomy to prevent the cancer from getting
03:35worse. Tobias respects her decision and Almut undergoes treatment until the cancer is in
03:44remission. Later on, Almut decides that she also would like to start a family with Tobias.
03:52The two make several attempts to conceive until they finally get a positive result and celebrate.
04:01Tobias supports Almut all throughout her pregnancy. When she is at nine months,
04:07the two go to a petrol station for snacks, until Almut starts to feel unwell. She goes
04:15into the bathroom and accidentally locks herself inside, telling Tobias that she is ready to give
04:23birth. With help from employees Sanjaya Nicol Parmer and Jane Carey Godliman, along with a
04:31doctor on the phone, Almut successfully gives birth to a healthy baby girl that she and Tobias
04:39name Ella. Years later, Almut is a head chef in a bigger restaurant than where she used to work.
04:48She has taken on a younger sous chef, Jade Lee Braithwaite, as an apprentice. During work,
04:56she feels another great pain in her waist. Tobias takes her to the hospital, where they learn that
05:04Almut's cancer has advanced to stage three, and she needs to begin chemotherapy immediately since
05:11the tumor is too large to operate on. Tobias and Almut discuss how to break the news to Ella,
05:20Grace Delaney, contemplating getting a dog to gently ease her into the news. Almut suggests
05:28that instead of jumping into the chemo, she and Tobias spend six to eight months living life to
05:35the fullest instead of anticipating death. Tobias and Almut take Ella to a restaurant to break the
05:42news to her. Before they can do so, the waiter tries to be playful with Ella until her parents
05:50angrily tell him it's not a good time. They give Ella the news, though she doesn't seem to
05:58understand what will happen to her mother. A while later, Tobias finally proposes marriage to Almut,
06:06and she accepts. With help from Ella, they shave Almut's head to prep her for chemo at Almut's
06:14colleague, Simon Maxson, Adam James, invites her to compete in the Bocas D'Or, a highly prestigious
06:23chef championship. Almut asks Jade to join her as her partner. Almut and Jade join Simon in training
06:32for the competition, but her training dates also coincide with her treatment, which she skips.
06:40It gets to a point where Almut gets sick during one of the training sessions, and Jade has to
06:47ask her if she is well enough to keep going, and Almut insists that she is. Tobias later learns
06:55about the Bocas D'Or and Almut's part in it. When he finds out that the date of the competition is
07:02the same date of their wedding, he becomes upset at Almut for skipping treatments and putting her
07:09career over her family. Almut fires back that she doesn't simply want to be remembered as
07:17someone's dead mom, and wants to leave something for Ella to remember her by when she's gone.
07:24Tobias goes outside to throw the trash and tearfully discards their wedding invitations.
07:32On the day of the Bocas D'Or, Tobias and Ella show up to support Almut. She puts her best effort
07:40into it, but near the end of the final round, she starts to get weak and falter. Almut lets Jade
07:49take over to prep their dish, and they are able to finish in time. After the competition is over,
07:57Almut walks into the audience to hug Ella and kiss Tobias. Afterwards, they go to an ice skating
08:05rink together, where Almut skates with Ella for the first and last time. Almut eventually passes
08:14away. Tobias and Ella return from her funeral and are seen with a new dog. Tobias starts to prepare
08:23a meal for Ella and shows her how to crack an egg on a flat surface, like Almut earlier showed him.
08:32He appears sad for a moment as he remembers her, but goes back to smiling as he cooks with Ella.
