Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Brad Bird, Jan Pinkava
Starring: Ian Holm, Peter O'Toole, Brian Dennehy, Janeane Garofalo, John Ratzenberger, Patton Oswalt, Lou Romano
Remy's cooking is credited to Linguini, who rises in the ranks of Gusteau's, angering wound-tight Head Chef Skinner. Remy becomes the owner of Gusteau's when it is revealed that he is the son of the Gusteau himself. The Remy/Linguini combination is put to the test by hard-nosed food snob Anton Ego. Linguini desperately reveals his secret to his kitchen staff, who are disgusted and desert him. (Colette comes back.) Remy recruits all of his rat friends and they run the kitchen like a well-oiled machine. They serve Ego the "peasant dish" ratatouille, which reminds him of his childhood. He happily demands to meet the Head Chef, and after making everyone else leave, Colette and Linguini introduce him to their rat troop. Ego serves up a raving review, but Skinner reports them and the Board of Health shuts Gusteau's down. Remy and Linguini open up their own restaurant - Le Ratatouille.

Trivia: When Skinner stops chasing Remy, a mime artist is visible in the background. This man is none other than Bomb Voyage, a character from The Incredibles, Pixar's previous production. (01:17:30)

Answer: Remy tells the imaginary Gusteau that he's given up, and Gusteau replies that Remy is only as free as he imagines himself to be. Remy counters that he's "sick of pretending" to be a rat for his father and to be a human through Linguini. He then adds that he even pretends Gusteau actually exists, just so he can have somebody to talk to, and that all of Gusteau's responses are what he himself already knows to be true. So when Remy asks, "Why do I need to pretend?" that's when Gusteau tells him, "But you don't Remy. You never did." Which basically means Remy is both a rat, and an extraordinary cook.
