The old lady wakes up and is shocked to see both Remy and Emile. But the document reveals that Gusteau has passed away, shocking Remy. As Django gets impatience waiting on Remy and Emile, Remy shows the document of Gusteau to Emile on the television. Aside from his great sense of smell, Remy also reveals that he can read and have watched television, something rats never do and approve of. As Remy searches for it, Emile is feeling really uncomfortable being in the kitchen, scared that the old lady will wake up. Remy wants to add saffron to it, but it is in the kitchen. However, lightning strikes the two, but it also cooks the mushroom Remy was preparing, in which Remy takes a huge liking too. The next day, Remy discovers a mushroom, and with the help of Emile, Remy cooks the mushroom with the cheese Emile found on the rooftop of the house. But Remy ignores it and goes into the kitchen of the house and watches a document of French chef, Auguste Gusteau, in which Remy is heavily inspired by. Django forbids Remy to go into the kitchen (where all the food isn't poison) and away from the humans as they are dangerous. Unlike the other rats, Remy disliked garbage food and is fascinated by the humans, to Django's dismay. Remy felt pleased about this, until Django gave him the job of being poison checker, which involved smelling all the stolen food to tell whether it was poisoned or not. By this point, Django suddenly believed that Remy's gift was great. Remy is gifted with a keen sense of smell and taste, which he used to save his father from eating food that was covered with rat poison.
