Joe sabotages the old stove. Kate gets a letter from New York food critic Lucius J. Penrose (veteran English stage and screen character actor. Apparently Joe wrote Penrose and asked him to come to the hotel to taste Kate's cooking. With a new oven and Penrose's stamp of approval, the hotel could be famous. The old stove starts smoking and Joe tells Kate he has already ordered a new one. Meanwhile in New York, Penrose tells a Chef that he hated his meal. Kate tries to stop Floyd and Charley from delivering the new stove, but it's too late. Another problem is that the electric stove has to be put together. The stove is finally together, but there are pieces left over. When they plug it in, the power goes out. Penrose arrives and is not impressed with the hotel or the stove. He says that the only reason he agreed to come was to get a meal cooked on an old fashioned wood burning stove. Kate winds up cooking the meal in the Cannonball's wood burner and Penrose loves it.

The Gilded Age

The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic change, of huge fortunes made and lost, and the rise of disparity between old money and new.

Against this backdrop of change, the story begins in 1882 — introducing young Marian Brook, the orphaned daughter of a Union general, who moves into the New York City home of her thoroughly old money aunts Agnes van Rhijn and Ada Brook. Accompanied by Peggy Scott, an accomplished African-American woman, Marian inadvertently becomes enmeshed in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her stupendously rich neighbors, a ruthless railroad tycoon and his ambitious wife, George and Bertha Russell.

In this exciting new world that is on the brink of the modern age, will Marian follow the established rules of society, or forge her own path?
