On the final meeting the next day, the investors decide the ownership of the ''Cooking With Jack Show'' must be included in the investment package, concluding that the sauce would not sell without Jack's image. Jack fiercely declines, and gets defensive as the investors tell him his company is only worth four times his profit from the previous year. After Jack suggests that he no longer wants a deal, the investors accuse Jack of only coming on the show to appear on television and promote his YouTube channel. | On the final meeting the next day, the investors decide the ownership of the ''Cooking With Jack Show'' must be included in the investment package, concluding that the sauce would not sell without Jack's image.

Jack did not make a formal announcement that he would be appearing on ''WTIC'' on his YouTube channels, only addressing the matter in [https://youtu.be/UtNGab7xyrM "Slawesome Deviled Eggs - Food Product Review"] a month after the premiere with a rather displeased tone.

On a livestream on 2 November 2019, Jack expressed regret that he could not take ''Shark Tank'''s alleged second offer, as he was contractually bound to ''WTIC'' at that point.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/live/x8eXiv7gfLM?feature=share&t=3975</ref> On 26 June 2021, he expressed frustration that he "wasn't allowed to talk to anybody on the set", and that the producers "just [drove] you off like you were radioactive or something".<ref>https://www.youtube.com/live/AevTq30si4k?feature=share&t=3638</ref> | On a livestream on 2 November 2019, Jack expressed regret that he could not take ''Shark Tank'''s alleged second offer, as he was contractually bound to ''WTIC'' at that point.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/live/x8eXiv7gfLM?feature=share&t=3975</ref> On 26 June 2021, he expressed frustration that he "wasn't allowed to talk to anybody on the set", and that the show producers "just [drove] you off like you were radioactive or something".<ref>https://www.youtube.com/live/AevTq30si4k?feature=share&t=3638</ref> On 27 January 2024, Jack claimed he cried during the episode because the producers forced him to overreact for dramatic effect, combined with how "my mom just passed away when they filmed that" (Which is a blatant lie, as she died in 2011). He also claimed Gilliam and him stayed friends for "a few months" after filming.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/live/9IoS0PLu874?feature=share&t=3103</ref> | ||
