Gilbert was excited to watch this exciting new show in PetFlix!

Ok, contestants! You have 30 minutes left to dazzle us with your Jelly Roll shells, they should make us feel like we're kicking sand at the beach, hearing the roar of the ocean when we put it to our ears!, called out Pawl! Meowy rolled her eyes at the thought of stuffing a jelly roll in her ear....

Ok, time to show off your creations! yelled Pawl.
Let's see what Stella baked up for us!
Well, Stella, tell us about what you've created! It certainly looks like something I'd kick up on the beach!, said Meowy.
Well, Pawl, for you and Meowy today, I have a Cranberry compote jelly, surrounded by a lemon sponge, with a walnut glaze. The recipe has been handed down for generations in my family. Pawly took one bite, along with Meowy and declared it edible, but slightly overbaked and dry.

Ok, Tina, what have you got to present us with today? asked Pawl.
Well, Meowy and Paul, today I have a peach and jalepeno jelly, surrounded by a saffron sponge, and a carrot glaze Meowy gagged slightly and broke off a small taste. "Well, Tina, I am not sure why you chose these combinations, but it's really not ringing that taste bell for me". Pawly nodded in agreement, and next was Greg!

Greg! What delectable delight have you come up with for your Jelly Roll? asked Pawly.
Well, today I have a blueberry lemon jelly, spiced with a cardamom sponge, topped with a blueberry and cracked pepper glaze! Well, Greg, I don't mind telling you, that combination has me worried, but let's see what you have in store! Meowy and Pawly dug in and were pleasantly surprised, to the delight of Greg!

Fred! Last but not least, what culinary cabaret of flavor do you have for us?
Well, Pawly, and Meowy, let me first say it's been a dream come true to meet you for the first time and an honor to be on the show! Today I have seaweed and onion jelly, wrapped in a kale juice sponge, with a key lime glaze. I decided to go with a savory jelly roll instead of the traditional sweet sponge.
*Cough! Cough!* Well, Fred, that is the most interesting concoction I have tasted, and that says a lot! Meowy and I will go discuss and announce this round's winner, and unfortunatly, one of you will be eliminated!

After much deliberation, Meowy and Pawly announced that Tina did not have what it took to be a part of the show. We wish her all good fortune in her next steps in her baking career! The star baker today is Fred! The non-traditional Jelly Roll really took us to a new level of taste! For the next challenge, you'll need to create 4 identical cupcakes, with a spooky, Halloween theme! Ready! Set! Bake!

Stella started to Panic! Spilling her milk all over the batter, she was saddened to think she had to start over, but at least Pawly and Meowy weren't in the room to see the disaster!

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 9/25

Time's UP! Let's see those creations!
Stella! What do you have for us? The crew mentioned that you had a little mishap, and we see you didn't cry over spilled milk!
Well, I must admit, I was frazzled! But I have a three-eyed monster cupcake, filled with a chocolate ganache, and I used marshmallows and licorice bits for the eyes, and a fruit roll-up for the tongue. The sponge is a pistachio and walnut base.
Meowy! cried Pawly, This is a really delightful design! And aside from not being identical, it's pretty tasty!

Meowy and Pawly moved over to Fred, who made some bewitching black cat cupcakes, and Pawly couldn't resist a good dad joke, "Why did the black cat cross your path? To get to the other side of the road" and had a good laugh. Meowy just rolled her eyes and took a good mouthful of the cupcake. So, you'll find a cherry and vanilla sponge, topped with a marshmallow frosting and anise biscuits for the cats. I thought a nice traditional cupcake flavor would be a change for me. Declaring it tasty, Meowy and Pawly move on.

Greg! What's baking?
Well, it's pink lemonade sponge, with a blueberry filling, topped with a buttercream frosting and white chocolate molded into ghoulish shapes.
Meowy piped up that it was a pretty good execution but Greg played it rather safe with his cupcake flavors and that she and Pawly were expecting some real creativity.

After taking a second taste of both Greg and Stella's cupcakes, Stella was declared the winner of the round, but Fred was voted out.
Next, bakers, is the grand finale! And for this challenge, we are looking for a variety of Halloween cookies, that must be 3 different flavors!

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 13/25

I don't know about you, Stella, but I am stressed to the MAX! Stella, a panic stricken chicken, didn't even answer, but ruffled her feathers and started gathering supplies to make cookies!

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 14/25

In the panic, Stella forgot to add eggs to the batter and a huge cloud of flour covered the kitchen, and the contestants lost about 5 minutes waiting for the dust to clear. All set and ready to present their Halloween Cookies, Greg and Stella wish each other good luck and wait for Meowy and Pawly to come and judge the display!

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 15/25

Greg set his display out for the judges but was disappointed when Pawly said the cookies looked like some he'd bought not long ago at Costco. Greg grinned sheepishly and said that he used their cookies for inspiration. It wasn't an automatic disqualification but Greg found his chances slipping away...

Stella was waiting with fluffing her feathers in anticipation to see if Meowy and Pawl liked her original decorated cookie and taste! Meowy didn't give it away, but she gave Stella a wink and she and Pawl went off to discuss the Grand Baker!

And without further ado, Pawly announced that Stella won a new Swiss style Chateau located on an old farm road with 50 acres! And who would be that lucky viewer? Gilbert wished so hard, and just like that, the number flashed across the screen!

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 18/25

It's incredible! STELLA WON THE GRAND PRIZE! Pawly and Meowy showered her in praises and got ready to announce the big surprise! One lucky viewer of the show will win the exact same prize as Stella! Gilbert crossed paws, fingers, feathers and whatever else!

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 19/25

It's ME! ME! ME! cried Gilbert can you believe it? I am getting my own luxurious mansion in the woods!
And, here you go Stella, your mansion! Here are the keys, enjoy a fresh start, and wait until you see the professional kitchen! Meowy and I couldn't be happier for you! Now we have to go back to the studio and meet the winner from the drawing!

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 20/25

Well, Meowy! Let's welcome our winner, Gilbert!, said Pawly.
I can't believe I won! I never win anything! A house! In the woods! Omg! I can't believe my good fortune!, said Gilbert excitedly bounding around the set, asking 10,000 questions about the bakers, the stocking of the cupboards and everything in-between.
Pawly smiled his famous Pawl Hollywood smile and suggested maybe they take off in the car and go find the new house!

Oh, Meowy! I love your pink convertible! Did you set the GPS to the winning property? asked Pawly. Of course I did, Pawl... replied Meowy, slightly annoyed at that slightly condescending tone.
HOP IN, let's go, Gilbert!Ooh, I love the fall weather! Look at the pumpkins growing, wild and free! I bet they would make some great pies, what about you? What do you do with your pumpkins, Gilbert? asked Meowy.
I love making whoopie pies with pumpkin, but also, my pet pup loves a spoon of fresh pumpkin as a treat! replied Gilbert

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 22/25

Um, Meowy, are you sure that this is the right road? asked Pawly. YES, YES I AM SURE. YOU BUGGING ME ISN'T HELPING... [/I] Gilbert just watched out the window, ignoring the bickering. Meowy threw on the blinker and headed down the winding fall road.

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 23/25

*erm*, I hate to be ungrateful, but is that my wining house?, asked Gilbert as they were driving past the old dilapidated shack nested deep in the woods, obviously only the wild things called that home.

Now, now, the GPS said that we have another half a mile before we reach our destination, this must just be a bonus! Pawly laughed nervously. The producers should have given them better information before sending them out on the road.

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 24/25

HERE IT IS! HERE WE ARE! LOOK, Gilbert, IT'S SO MUCH BETTER THAN WE THOUGHT! squealed Meowy, who was obviously excited to present Gilbert with their new house!
It's a little plain but I think with some work, it'll spruce up nicely! said Gilbert.

Gilbert is questing! Crumb 25/25

Here's the key, Gilbert! And Meowy has a surprise in the trunk, she's got one of her signature Ukrainian eggs for you as a house warming gift! And who's that? It's Stella! She's brought you a full basket of her award winning kooky cookies! Well, it's time to load back up and head back into town, we really hope you like your new home and all the joy of living in the country brings!
Gilbert has eaten his fill of treats! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can scrounge lots of kookies!
