In this chapter, George tells us that he is the professional competitive eater in Japan and that he will win the upcoming gourmet grand prix. He says that he and his fellow competitors are ready to face the toughest competition in the world. He tells George that he has already won the bread tie and is the number two professional eater in the country. George tells him that he knows that the other professional eaters are trying to trick him into thinking that they are the only ones in Japan who can eat the best food. George asks if he has heard from Torikai, and he says he hasn't heard from her since he went to visit her at a currydon event.
