As you, Cuphead and Mugman were gathering ingredients for the Wondertart, and you always saw Chef Saltbaker is a seemingly jolly individual with a kind attitude. He always seemed more than happy to help bring Ms. Chalice to life and even gives the brothers a special cookie that can temporarily allow Chalice to live on the mortal plane. However, after the requested ingredients are gathered, Saltbaker reveals himself to be a cunning and cut-throat individual, willing to sacrifice a soul to create the Wondertart in his plot to conquer the astral plane. This degree of cruelty is further shown in his boss battle, where Saltbaker abuses and/or kills the living ingredients in order to battle their gatherers.
And in the middle of the battle you were shook to your core and how you were slowly beginning to like him, you didn't move. You see your 2 friends fighting and the other trapped, and you frowned and glanced down while Chef Saltbaker was causing destruction.
