Shaggy was the crab. Really was good. We have more on that ahead. But first, we begin with that breaking news. An arrest made in connection with the deadly ambush of that American Family in mexico. The brutal attack leaving six children and three mothers dead but miraculously some of the kids were able to escape. Tom llamas is in mexico with more. Good morning, tom. Reporter michael, good morning. Here in the state of sonora, the same state where the massacre took place, police said the suspect kidnapped two people. Its unclear if he has any connection to the killings here that happened with that American Family but they are examining the possibility. We have to remember the bloodthirsty thugs that killed American Family had several hours to get away. This morning, abc news learning new details about that ambush attack on an American Family in mexico. Overnight, relatives visiting the horrific crime scene that looks like something out of a war. This all that remains of one of their suvs. Mexican officials believe drug traffickers attacked the family possibly confusing them as a rival gang. I believe they were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Nobody could have anticipated that these two cartels were going to be in a war. Reporter mexican Authorities Say the gunmen fired more than 200 rounds at the women and children. The family part of a Mormon Community that had been living in the border region for decades. The three mothers driving in separate vehicles caravanning to stay safe. Some of them preparing for an upcoming wedding. They never arrived to their destination and family members were too scared to drive over the road to find them with all this going on. There was gunshots going on after the vehicle had burned. Reporter three mothers and six children including twin infants shot and killed. Family members sharing these photos with abc news. This is Rohnita Miller holding her 8monthold twin babies, titus and tiana, all three killed in the attack. Relatives say at one point one of the mothers got out of her vehicle with her hands up to show they were families. The gunman shot her pointblank in the chest. President trump reacting to the horrific news tweeting, if mexico needs or requests help in cleaning out these monsters, the United States stands ready, willing and able to get involved and do the job quickly and effectively. [ speaking Foreign Language ] reporter but mexicos president saying their country will handle this alone, vowing justice. Elisa stell spoke with our affiliate wpvb in florida, saying, her cousin Christine Langford killed in the attack may have been trying to save her 7monthold baby faith. The mother tried to put the child like on the floor under the seat in some way to save her life but baby faith is her name, she miraculously survived. Reporter so many relatives calling 13yearold Devin Blake Langford a hero. They say he saved several of his siblings who had been shot hiding them in some bushes as he walked 14 miles to get help amid what they describe as an allout narco war. He basically saw the cartel shooting, and there were, like, 60 people shooting at them from all over the mountains around, and the little kid decided to get the kids away from where they were shooting and go into the bushes. That was courageous. Reporter five of the children taken out by helicopter now being treated in tucson, arizona. We cant say enough, that little boy so koushlgs you, 13 years old, because of what he did so many of these children were able to survive. Mexico officials are sharing information with the fbi. Theyre calling this what it is an atrocity. It certainly is. Certainly is, tom. Thank you. Now to overnight the Election Results that are coming in for highstakes races that could be a sign for 2020. Democrats winning big in virginia, claiming a narrow victory in the kentucky governors race, but the incumbent there is saying, not so fast. Linsey davis is in louisville, has the latest for us. Good morning, linsey. Reporter good morning to you, robin. In this building right behind me, that is where kentucky republicans had their watch party last night. And all in all there was a lot to celebrate except for that top spot. Despite coming up short about 5,000 votes, the governor is defiant citing voting irregularities and refusing to step down. Overnight, republicans close to losing their grip on the kentucky governors seat, kentuckys attorney general andy beshear claiming victory over incumbent governor matt bevin enjoying a razor thin lead of a few thousand votes. Tonight i want to say thank you to our Union Families that helped make this election happen. Reporter even with 100 of the votes in, Republican Matt Bevin is still refusing to concede. The Associated Press says this race is still too close to call. There have been more than a few irregularities, this is a close, close race. We are not conceding this race by any stretch. My expectation is that he will honor he will honor the election that was held tonight. That he will help us make this transition. Reporter even though the race was close, bevins loss in the blue grass state could be a bad omen for gop leadership including Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell who is up for reelection next year with just an 18 Approval Rating in his home state. Trump carried kentucky by 30 points in 2016 but was forced to rally support behind bevin on the eve of the election in this typically red state. And if you lose, theyre going to say trump suffered the greatest defeat in the history of the world. This was the greatest. You cant let that happen to me. Reporter now Trumps Campaign is taking credit for what they call a stronger than expected performance saying in a statement, the president just about dragged governor matt bevin across the finish line, but with no mandatory recounts for the Governors Office in kentucky, bevins options are limited and could lead to a long and drawnout legal battle. In virginia, a clearer upset for republicans as democrats flipped control of both the statehouse and the state senate. This victory is not mine alone. It belongs to all of you. Reporter taking control of the full State Government for the first time in more than two decades. Certainly a big win for virginias embattled governor after that blackface scandal. Next up louisiana, President Trump heads there tomorrow for a rally. This will be his third time in a traditionally republican Southern State in less than a week. This is definitely surprising, george. It is surprising. One of the big things were seeing suburban voters moving towards the democrats. Thank you very much. To washington and that major twist in the impeachment showdown. A key witness has now reversed himself and conceded there was a quid pro quo with ukraine contradicting trumps core defense. Our senior Congressional Correspondent mary bruce has the latest on capitol hill. Good morning, mary. Reporter good morning, george. Gordon sondland was the president s handpicked point person in ukraine, a trump megadonor turned diplomat. He was quick to defend the president and initially testified that he could not recall many of the details but other key witnesses here did, raising questions about whether sondland was telling the truth and now facing growing pressure, sondland has revised his testimony. In a stunning reversal, gordon sondland, the u. S. Ambassador to the eu, revising his testimony detailing a quid pro quo with ukraine. Saying, he told a top ukrainian official they would likely not receive 400 million in military aid unless they publicly committed to investigate trumps political rivals. Thats not what he initially testified. When asked if there were any preconditions on the aid, sondland originally answered, no, but sondland says his memory was, quote, refreshed by other key witnesses who contradicted his initial testimony. Its never too late to do the right thing. Reporter in a Text Exchange with another u. S. Diplomat in september, sondland claims the president has been crystal clear, no quid pro quos of any kind which trump often pointed to in his defense. The ambassador who i heard was tremendous, and a tremendous person, he was 100 for what were saying. 100 , and if you look, he also said there was no quid pro quo. Thats the whole ball game. Reporter but sondland told investigators he was just repeating what the president told him on a phone call. Sondland also said the president delegated ukraine policy to his personal attorney rudy giuliani, that the president just kept saying talk to rudy, talk to rudy and that the state department was aware. Sondland says when he discussed giulianis role with secretary of state mike pompeo, pompeo rolled his eyes and said, yes, its something we have to deal with. The white house is dismissing sondlands revised testimony and the Top Republican in the senate says its not likely to sway republicans. I will say im pretty sure how its likely to end, if it were today, i dont think theres any question it would not lead to a removal. Reporter house investigators are now summoning the president s acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney to testify here on friday. Mulvaney, of course, undercut the president s defense when he admitted that there was a quid pro quo during a press briefing last month. A statement that mulvaney later retracted. But the white house has instructed officials not to comply with this inquiry, and george, mulvaney is not expected to appear. Lets bring in kate shaw, constitutional law professor. I think a lot dont know you can go back and revise your testimony in congress. Sure. But he was doing this because he feared threat of prosecution. I think he was facing a real perjury possibility, right, so his testimony looked quite different and very much contradicted by some of this testimony weve seen come out over the last 24 hours and i think he was rightly concerned about the possibility of perjury exposure so i think thats why we have seep these revisions now. Got the evidence piling up and piling up that there, in fact, was a quid pro quo and undercuts the president s defense and narrows the options for the president s defenders. Yeah, i mean look, so they have staked so much on this argument that there was no quid pro quo and i think that has totally collapsed and not just the president but his congressional allies who have been all in on this no quid pro quo so especially his original testimony, sondlands original testimony. Absolutely, and i think they need to scramble to find a new strategy. I mean, one thing they might do is saying, okay, so there was a quid pro quo, but thats diplomacy. Exchanges and promises and even threats are part of diplomacy. And thats true but diplomacy is about the u. S. National interests, right, using governmental resources to advance personal political objectives, thats not diplomacy. That looks like corruption. So that leaves one final possibility they can say what the president was wrong but not impeachable. Right, and i think the views of the American Public on just how wrong this conduct was will be really significant, and i think we will see, you know, every time i think the president and his team require congressional allies to sort of scramble to find some sort of path, you know, you could see a weakening of the support, and i think as sort of we see polls shift, i think the dynamics on the hill could very much change. But i think that if theres already going to be a concession that something wrong happened, its a question of just how serious that is, but if it looks like abuse of power and corruption, those are sort of at the heart of what the impeachment process is designed to target. Finally, we have the president now putting up a wall from all of his aides testifying. All of his close aides. How strong an article of impeachment for obstruction will that be . Thats what adam schiff says he will try to do. One of the articles of impeachment against president nixon was obstruction and noncooperation with congress so theres precedent for drafting an article totally based on this failure to cooperate with congress. I think that the substantive offenses will make for stronger articles of impeachment, but i would expect them to add one along those lines as well. Kate, thanks very much. Michael. Thank you, george. We go now to that bitter arctic blast thats moving in for millions. Six states facing a Winter Weather advisory this morning and icy roads already causing accidents. Ginger has the very latest for us this morning. Good morning, ginger. Good morning, michael. Im just seeing snow flying in milwaukee, wisconsin, shutting down highways and these pictures from oversight, sioux falls, south dakota, a series of serious accidents that made their way through this. Its not just this hit of snow but the cold that comes in. Thats why we wanted to focus on north dakota, south dakota and minnesota, we put the stream lines here which represent that high pressure, where it will be just west of pierre by tomorrow morning. When that settles in its like taking the blanket off at night. No clouds to keep you warmer and certainly that big push of northerly flow, and that will bring you a lot of the pink and purple. What does it mean . Minneapolis, youll feel like 11. Ken barlow will be all over that. Minot will feel like 6 and this sinks far south. Im telling you this cold front will blast all the way to the gulf coast. Numberswise, well be looking at close to freezing there in tallahassee. 26, atlanta, robin . All right, ginger, thank you. Now growing outrage over an alleged racist incident at a Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant in illinois. A family says they were told to change tables because another customer didnt want to sit near black people. Two employees were fired over the incident and now were hearing from the family. T. J. Holmes is here with much more on this. Reporter robin, can i take your drink order . Would you like an appetizer . What race are you . Thats the question youre used not used to getting because one customer didnt want to sit next to black people but the outrage isnt that there might have been a racist in the room. The outrage is that the restaurant seemed willing to accommodate that racism. Outrage this morning after a Buffalo Wild Wings employee in naperville, illinois, asked a customer the unthinkable. He asked me what race are you . Reporter justin vahl took his family and friends to dinner at the popular restaurant chain when a regular guest allegedly asked that the group, a party of 18, most of them children, be seated somewhere else. I responded, you know, what does that matter . And so the host said, well, we have a regular customer here who doesnt want to sit around black people. Reporter his wife ashley smith shared the ordeal on facebook. You look at these kids and theyre all different. And they need to know thats okay. Reporter Buffalo Wild Wings responded in a statement to abc news, we take this incident very seriously and after conducting a thorough internal investigation have terminated the employees involved. They add, the chain values an inclusive environment and has zero tolerance for discrimination of any kind and although the regular guest has been banned from all Buffalo Wild Wings, the damage has been done. To see them try to understand is hurtful, right . Because thats something they shouldnt have to do. The family and the Attorney Says we dont necessarily want a lawsuit. We just kind of want Buffalo Wild Wings to do the right thing. Well wait on that. It was one of those kids birthday, and now theyre having to explain that the kids are having issues based on it. So, awful situation. The emotion from the whole family but for those kids, i mean, to have those kids involved. I cant imagine that happening now, so tone deaf. 2019. Thats what all the marches in the 60s were about. This is crazy. Thank you, t. J. All right, were going to turn to a really sweet story, okay .

Sfwlmplts were going to get the latest on that murder mystery in texas. A suspect was identified in the death of that couple from new hampshire. Marcus moore is tracking the case. Good morning, marcus. Reporter george, good morning. Police in texas have put out a wanted bulletin for a man and woman who utah and tips have been pouring in on this case and police say the people they are looking for in connection with the double murder may be out of the country. This morning, authorities are calling it a major break in the case. Police say that Adam Curtis Williams and Amanda Noverr were seen driving into mexico at a Border Crossing on october 21st. Do you feel they are in mexico . We believe that although, again, the texas mexico border is vast. Reporter both are some from utah and this morning, police are working to figure out how they allegedly ended up with james and michelle butlers truck and rv and whether the four met. So far it remains a mystery. The butlers were retired and loved to travel in the middle of a crosscountry road trip when they vanished last seen october 15th. They had set up their camp in padre island. Family members say they planned to stay here for awhile and travel to florida for the holidays. They are always in contact with the family. Even a day they were out of contact was really strange. Reporter days after family members reported them missing their bodies found buried in a shallow grave on this beach. Right now authorities not saying how they believe the loving couple was killed. Every homicide is brutal and this one is particularly nasty. Reporter and there is a warrant right now out for williams arrest for felony theft.

Victor oquendo is in broward county, florida, with the story. Good morning, victor. Reporter good morning, michael. In that video its clear the deputy and the student exchanged words before the attack here at this school. While we dont know what was said the sheriff says it doesnt matter. His deputys actions were deplorable and unnecessary. The sheriffs deputy seen in this video is out on bond this morning charged with felony child abuse after being caught on camera grabbing a 15yearold girl by the neck and slamming her to the ground. Deputy willard miller, a School Resource officer at Cross Creek School in south florida is then seen putting his knee in the students back, pulling her off the ground and throwing her into a room against a wall. The byproduct of his actions were deplorable. They were uncalled for and they violated multiple policies just on the optics. Reporter Deputy Miller was arrested, charged and suspended from the force. Cross creek is a school with children with behavioral and emotional needs. Before the violent interaction in late september, you see him with her foot. A minute later it appears they exchanged words then he walks across the room. I would hope every cop in america would disagree with that type of response. Reporter weve reached out to Deputy Miller and his attorney, but have not heard back. Guys. Oh, my goodness to see the video like that. All right, thank you.

Right now, they want to know if he has any connection to the massacre, those as mexican officials on r the on ground here trying to chase down any leads in sonora. Three mothers answer six children including twin infants, now, mexican officials believe this family may have been mistaken for a rival drug gang by one of the cartels that run rampant in the area. Regardless, President Trump wants justice.

They are declaring a victory as least as far as the governors race is concerned, but the republican incumbent governor here is saying, look, not so fast, even after coming up short by 5,000 votes. He is claiming voting irregularities and is refusing to step down. The Associated Press has says the race is too close to call. In kentucky, there are now three options, a recanvas, recount or election contest so we could be in for a long, drawn out process ahead. In virginia, a much clearer upset for republicans as democrats flip control of both the statehouse and the state Senate Taking control of the full State Government.

Rebecca jarvis is here now with what this means for shoppers. Good morning, rebecca. Hey, michael, good morning. Yeah, and if you have selfcontrol, its good news for shoppers. Walmart calls this delivery unlimited. It lets shoppers pick their groceries online and have them delivered to their homes the same day.

And this comes on the heels of just last week when amazon made its Grocery Delivery Service part of the amazon prime membership so people no longer have to pay the 15 a month to get amazon fresh or whole foods groceries delivered to them and why are they doing this . Because the grocery business is huge. 700 billion a year. And think about what you buy most often, food, this is their way of staying on your mind always for everything. Its like the milk in the back of the grocery store, you go into the store to get milk, you make impulse purchases once youre there. Oh, wow. Keep shopping. Save some money right before the holidays.

Because i can still make my own insulin. And trulicity activates my body to release it like its supposed to. Trulicity is for people with type 2 diabetes. Its not insulin. I take it once a week. It starts acting in my body from the first dose. Trulicity isnt for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Dont take trulicity if youre allergic to it, you or your family have medullary thyroid cancer, or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2. Stop trulicity and call your doctor right away if you have an allergic reaction, a lump or swelling in your neck, or severe stomach pain. Serious side effects may include pancreatitis. Taking trulicity with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases low blood sugar risk. Side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, belly pain, and decreased appetite, which lead to dehydration and may worsen kidney problems. I have it within me to lower my a1c.

Actress emma watson getting candid about turning 30. Her love life, the idea of settling down and starting a family and why she says shes happy with what she calls selfpartnering. Paula faris, you got to tell us about this. Ill tell you. Remember that famous scene from jerry maguire, you complete me . Thats not this. Selfpartnering, its being coined by emma in response to being single and not needing another person to complete her. Emma. Reporter she is saying she isnt in a rush to put a ring on it calling her relationship status selfpartnered. I never believed the whole im happy single spiel. I was like this is spiel. It took me a long time but im happy. I call it being selfpartnered. Reporter the term resonating with so many, selfpartnered trending on social media. One fan writing, i like this selfpartnered concept. It all comes back to selflove and being content on your own with yourself and an important place to be at mentally and emotionally. The harry potter star who turns 30 next april says she never understood the stigmas attached to getting older. There is suddenly this bloody influx of subliminal messaging around, if you have not built a home, if you do not have a husband, if you do not have a baby and you are turning 30, theres this incredible amount of anxiety. Reporter but while shes currently embracing dating life she stays away from dating sites and says her friends are pretty good matchmakers. Its nice even things that have worked out some of my best friends are people i got set up on a date with. Watson preaching her truth and shes also starring in the latest little women film adaptation film opening up next month and shes no longer referring to her as single but selfpartnered in that british issue of vogue. Shes happy. I can get behind the term. You have to be complete with yourself so then joy in a relationship with somebody else. Conscious uncoupling. Selfpartnering. You got it. Theres a term for everything. Yes. Thank you so much, paula. Now its time to go back under the sea. The Little Mermaid was seen by millions last night and Abbie Boudreau joins us once again from outside the stage in los angeles where it all took place. Hey, abbie. Reporter hey, good morning, michael. Were actually here on set. Its quiet now but last night the stage came to life in a live tv event where anything could and did happen. It was a Live Television event to remember. Poor unfortunate souls reporter social media in overdrive during the broadcast weighing in on shaggy as sebastian. Sha la la la the boy so shy hes going to kiss the girl reporter Queen Latifahs epic turn as ursula. Those poor unfortunate souls [ applause ] reporter john stamos brief blip when he meant to say prince eric but instead it came out as albert. I knew i should have played Prince Albert or eric. Reporter stamos later telling us backstage what happened. Im jumping on tables and doing everything and food and its hard to catch your breath. Floured up. I still had flour in my thing. Reporter speaking of princes. How come when she looks at me it seems like time reporter Graham Phillips took the stage as prince eric in the Little Mermaid live it feels like my destiny is calling instead from below. Reporter stealing the show right next to graham, bagel, the sheepdog. What id give if one said hello. Its going to be okay. Im just talking to myself. All nerves aside graham did an amazing job as prince eric and the rest of the cast telling us they had a blast and loved the experience. Now john stamos even telling me that next time he would love to do beauty and the beast. I hope for that, michael. They all did a great job. Really was a fun show to watch and fans really did love bagel the sheepdog as well. She got a lot of praise online as one of the most popular castings on the show, sharing the stage with prince eric and now joining us live from los angeles, prince eric himself, our man, Graham Phillips, good morning, graham. [ applause ] how are you doing, michael . So, graham, how does it feel to have it all over, all the adrenaline rush of a live show over. How are you feeling this morning . It feels pretty good. I got to say i was i was a little nervous, but im getting a little echo. I dont know if we can deal with that. Echoes make me nervous too. But it was i know. I know. It really puts me in my head. Im getting flashbacks to last night. But last night was really incredible to watch, a lot of fun. I heard that your mother and your 8yearold niece were in the audience, so what was their review after the show . What did they tell you what they thought . Well, my mom was just over the moon. She loves hearing me sing but my 8yearold niece for some reason, shes my harshest critic. She is a huge Little Mermaid fan, but she just she just never really saw me as prince eric. Shes like, youre uncle g, i dont know how you can make this happen but i think i flipped her by the end of the night. So i was really happy about that. [ applause ] well, ill tell you, but we also how was it behind the scenes . We saw some behindthescenes things happen. Was there anything crazy that we didnt get to see . Yeah, yeah, definitely. I mean, this whole this whole process was just crazy. As you can tell from the production theres a ton of technical elements that had to come together and theyre done at the last second in the 11th hour. We just had two dress rehearsals and, you know, everything seemed to be going wrong at the very beginning of the first dress rehearsal and we were like oh, no. And somehow it came together in the final time that we did it when we did it live so that always feels really good. You guys definitely did make a mistake. It was fantastic. Youve done broadway before. This is different. This is mashing broadway and live musical with tv. How nerveracking was that . I tried to just put out put it out of my mind how many people were actually watching. Its funny when walking to set two minutes before i came on, you know, i was just trying to be in the zone and i saw one of the people in abc and disneys pr department, she had a big smile on her face, i was like, hey, how is it going . Its so good. Were just getting the numbers in figuring out how many are starting to tune in and it looks like and i said, please do not tell me. Thats the last thing i need clanging around in my head how many millions of eyes will be on this whole thing. I just focused on the audience in the room and, you know, we had the pros at disney helping us out so we felt pretty good. That focus paid off. Millions of eyeballs were watching. Graham, great job. Hopefully well see you soon on broadway. Great job. Go get some sleep. All right . Now we go over to ginger. Hey, ginger. Hey, michael. I have a gma moment that really is the perfect autumn gma moment and it comes to us from massachusetts. Lucy. Lucy. Lucy, where are you . Ah. Is that not the sweetest . Lucy loves the leaves. Thank you. So much for sending that in, donald. Please go to my facebook and now we have a gma investigation into Surprise Medical Bills. A recent poll by Kaiser Health reports that 40 of insured consumers got a surprise bill in just the last year and now congress is working to curb these unexpected charges. Kyra phillips here with the story. Hey, kyra. Good morning. This really hits home for me, george, because my son had a freak accident and almost lost his hand and i rushed him to the hospital. We got to the emergency room. He saw three doctors and it never entered my mind to even ask if they were in network. So we are talking about unexpected charges that most of us assume if we have Health Insurance would be covered. Not always the case. So we spoke with the experts to find out what you can do about Surprise Medical Bills. 17,000 for a lab test. 50,000 for a stay in the nicu. 70,000 for surgery for a broken hip. Just a small sample of Surprise Medical Bills patients say they never saw coming. Its causing incredible distress and financial harm to hundreds of thousands of americans. Reporter tom once an active snowboarder says his family was devestated when he was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis, he needed a double Lung Transplant to survive. Its like drowning. You just you cant breathe. Reporter throughout toms care they say they made sure that everything was in network. Yeah, there was always a doublecheck before we had a reporter but while bedridden at a local hospital in california, tom needed an air ambulance to a medical facility where he could receive the transplant. The couple did it, no questions asked. How could you even have the wherewithal. To concentrate on Something Like that when your husband is dying. Reporter tom received that transplant but then came the bill that blindsided them. The transplant, 36,000, was fully covered by their insurance. But the air ambulance that cost 51,000 was not. So we were shocked. Reporter gma became aware of their case through Kaiser Health news and nprs series which investigates medical bills. Air ambulances are the single most common complaint in our database. Reporter their insurance covered most of the air ambulance bill, even though it was out of network. But they say they were told they still owed 11,000. How are we going to pay this bill . Reporter their Insurer Anthem told gma the cost for his transport were paid in accordance with his benefits plan. After gma investigates, contacted the air Ambulance Company your account is a zero balance. Reporter their balance now erased and air methods said after that call, we engaged in the appeals process to receive the full payment because mr. Saputo was extremely cooperative, we were able to provide him a zero balance. Nearly 80 of americans want legislation to protect patients from Surprise Medical Bills. The president also calling for regulation. They should be given a clear and honest bill up front. Reporter representatives Frank Pallone jr. And greg walden are cosponsors one of one of the bipartisan bills before congress that would regulate the practice. Why hasnt a bill been passed . Well, we are moving. I mean, the process takes a while. Reporter ads criticizing some of the legislation began running over the summer. Theyre not influencing you . We are going full force ahead. Reporter more than half of all air ambulance rides are out of network so we asked specifically about the saputos case. Why doesnt your legislation cover it. When you deal with ambulance it involves so many different factors. The ambulance might be private. It might be the local government. So its very difficult clearly its not working. Thats true, but it is a different animal so were taking on what we can here. Thank you, kyra. Well be right back. Kyra. Well be right back. Good morning, north bay. Lets get up and get going. This is abc7 mornings. Im kumasi aaron from abc7 mornings. San franciscos race for District Attorney is too close to call.

You know whats funny is he is sir patrick stewart. Sir patrick stewart, right . And hes the most lowmay want innocence person, and he was just, like, the least diva person ever. He was amazing. I actually have to punch him in the face and honestly that scene was so bizarre to do because i was like, hes so sweet and respectful and professional and just like he has this air about him that you kind of have to revere and i mean hes like hes our og bosley and og bosley. So like that. Og bosley, pow, in the face. There you go. I was like this is not right. But it looked right. Yeah. Young lady, princess jasmine and now an angel. [ cheers and applause ] thank you.

Today ming tsai, he is the chef extraordinary and owner of blue dragon here to show us how its done. Lets see what were going to be making here. Delivery, please. Please, delivery. [ doorbell rings ] okay, audience, whats in those delivery bags . What do we have . Tell us. Dumplings. Oh. Spring rolls. [ cheers and applause ] pot stickers. According to popular food Delivery Service door dash, these are two of the most Popular Foods ordered. Well start with the ginger pork pot stickers which i love. These have an ingredient that are considered healthy, right . We have this. Im doing 50 50 veg with pork. Make it nutrition. This is cabbage we sliced up and salted it. When you salt cabbage and squeeze out the water, it adds flavor from the salt, but then takes the moisture out so the pot stickers dont fall apart. Got it . Ground pork. You mix for me. You mix this, get your other hand in there. Always, always two hands. You cant tackle a guy without a hand, can you. Maybe you could. Maybe you could. If you get lucky you can. All right. So we add the cabbage. This is ground pork. You could do ground chicken, ground beef, ground turkey. We have scallion whites. I have the greens for the dipping sauce but a little toasted sesame oil which i love. A little bit of soy sauce. Then you have garlic and ginger. You need both garlic and ginger. Get out of there. Get out of there. All right. Thats awesome then a little bit of salt so thats what we have, the filling. Okay. You let it rest. When it rests it gets nice and combined so here we go. Well now take some pot sticker wrappers. You can buy these, separate those for me and show you how to do it. Well take all right. I will take a little bit for you. I will make i will center it for you and well make a pot sticker. Okay . Just one. All right, michael. One is enough. Thats all you need. Take your finger and wet the top part. Thats the glue, by the way, my mom who made thousand, half mon just like that. Moon just like that. Okay. All right . Then you create it up top and go down both sides so i would say my mom boils these first and puts them in the freezer and a little curve like that. Perfect. Good enough. It wasnt bad so then have to boil them. You dont. If you want to do it for a party and two weeks in advance, freeze them then once boiled you can pan sear them. The true way of doing this come together nicely. Thats good. Ill give that one to robin. Spring rolls. This is what it looks like. When theyre done, try that. Once let me show you real quick. A little bit of water. Once this water evaporates you get crispiness. Really quickly. Here is the spring roll wrappers. Want to roll with me . Uhhuh. Here, i dont think you can. This is vegetarian.
