“No! You waste energy and time! You think cooking is a cute job, eh? Like Mommy in the kitchen? Well, Mommy never had to face the dinner rush when the orders come flooding in, and every dish is different and none are simple, and all of the different cooking times, but must arrive at the customer's table at exactly the same time, hot and perfect! Every second counts, you cannot be mommy!”
―Collette to Linguini
Colette Tatou is the tritagonist of the 2007 Disney Pixar animated movie Ratatouille. In the film, she is the only female chef in Gusteau's restaurant. Throughout the film, Colette transitions from Alfredo Linguini's rival, mentor, and at the end, his girlfriend. She was initially upset after learning the truth that her boyfriend is not a good cook and that he was puppeteered by a rat the entire time. However Colette returns in a Nick of time after being reminded that anyone can cook after seeing the slogan from her idol Gusteau's cookbook in the window.
