Tiny glasses are perched on the bridge of his nose, and he dresses in a suit with a bow. Carter is a spirited person, and a prudent critic.

Plot

Indian Butler Arc

Carter impressed by Agni's curry.

Carter, along with the other judges (i.e. Higham and Aleister Chamber), is introduced by the host of the curry fair. He waits as the chefs cook their meals, and ascends to the stage to taste the food presented to him. Similar to the other judges, he dismisses the contestants who used curry powder instead of their own selection of spices.

After the elimination, Agni and Sebastian Michaelis are only two chefs left, and Carter is vividly impressed by Agni's curry. When Sebastian presents his curry bun, Carter is stunned by its unorthodox appearance, and he tastes it after Sebastian surprisingly fries it. Carter votes for Harold West Company's Agni, saying that he created a curry mixed so well, it is "within the realms of the Gods." Higham, on the other hand, chooses Sebastian's curry, and Aleister is indecisive. They finally declare it as a tie, which is later overturned by Queen Victoria.

Quotes

• (Referring to Agni's curry) "And that sweet and spicy, clear and rich soup! All this was accomplished without compromising the marvelous taste of the lobster!"

Trivia

• Carter is the only one out of the three judges who has not voiced an opinion on Sebastian's curry.
