4'''"Filibascan Chefs":''' Molly and Vera want to make lumpia, a traditional food from the Philippines, for Vera's mom.
5
6!!"Filibascan Chefs" contains the following tropes:
7* ADayInTheLimelight: Most of the episode focuses on Vera.
8* CallBack:
9** Molly breaks out her Creator/JuliaChild routine, just as she did in "New Nivagi." Vera joins her.
10** Suki is once again not a help in the kitchen.
11* GrandmasRecipe: Linda's lumpia is a modified version of her mother's, so Molly and Vera consult Lola Miranda on how to make it and the dipping sauce.
12* GratuitousForeignLanguage: Lola Miranda peppers her speech with Kapampangan words.
13* {{Portmanteau}}: "Filibascan" is a portmanteau of "Filipino" and "Athabascan" sometimes used in Alaska to describe people of those heritages. So Molly and Vera adopt the name "Filibascan Chefs" while puzzling out their Alaskan lumpia.
14* RelationshipReveal: This episode reveals that Maurice, who coaches the Northern Lights, is Vera's dad.
15* SecretIngredient: Linda's lumpia recipe contains one of these to replace the usual carabao (water buffalo). The girls finally figure out that the secret is caribou sausage.
